After the powerful divorced their wives, they welcome the crematorium

Chapter 20 Shen Mengqi Sells Lin Jihan's Face

Looking at Lin Jihan who was saluting below, the Queen Mother asked Shen Mengqi back, "Mengqi, what do you think of this matter?"

"This"

"It's all a family, so you can open up and say it. The regent doesn't have to hold back. Our family doesn't talk about each other. If the regent wants to take charge of this household department, just tell me, and I will let him go directly." You are concurrently serving as Minister of the Household Department."

Although the emperor's words were relaxed, the atmosphere became tense, and the suppressed suffocation made everyone's expressions a little ugly.

Shen Mengqi stood up and saluted the emperor: "Uncle, the prince is not superhuman. He is already exhausted by the affairs of the army, so he doesn't have the energy to manage the household department. Even if you are too lazy to promote new recruits, you shouldn't Hit your head on your own family."

Being pierced by Shen Mengqi, the emperor turned his head aside in embarrassment, and the empress dowager snorted coldly: "Your prince spends all day with Prime Minister Mu in the Qing brothel to deal with all kinds of affairs? You can believe me if you say this, just ask Does the emperor believe it?"

Just as the emperor wanted to intercede, he saw the empress dowager rolling her eyes, and he immediately fell silent.

Lin Jihan didn't speak, but just kept his head down, wondering what he was thinking.

"After all, everyone has different habits of dealing with things. Some people's minds turn quickly only in the land of fireworks. I think that the Duxin monk in our Tianyuan Kingdom was also left in the heart of the Buddha through wine and meat. The emperor's grandmother is now important. It is time to find out exactly who killed this Minister of the Ministry of Households, and who should succeed him as Minister of the Ministry of Officials."

"According to my grandson's humble opinion, since the prince found out about the murder of the Minister of the Household Department, it means that this incident is related to the prince, so let the prince take charge of the case, and let Cui Cishan, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, assist in the case. It is to punish the prince for neglecting his grandson."

Shen Mengqi's words gave both sides a step down. After all, Lin Jihan was the king regent's pillar of protection for the country. Now that the war has just ended, everyone is staring at the relationship between the royal family and the king regent. It is impossible for the empress dowager to really punish the king regent. It can only have a mouthful.

She asked Lin Jihan to take charge of the case, and also asked the Shaoqing of Dali Temple to assist him, which demonstrated the royal family's trust in Lin Jihan. Not only that, it could not only seal people's tongues, but also supervise Lin Jihan's thoughts of breaking his words. The opportunity sold Lin Jihan's favor.

It's a double win.

The empress dowager snorted coldly, she pulled Shen Mengqi to sit beside her and said, "You've already said this, what else can the Ai family say? The emperor thinks Mengqi's idea is right?"

Seeing the spark in the empress dowager's eyes, the emperor found an excuse and slipped away, "It's all right, my son is going to draw up the decree."

The queen mother said with a heartbroken heart: "Prince Regent, you have a child as good as my Mengqi as your wife, what else are you not satisfied with?"

Lin Jihan looked at Shen Mengqi, who was obediently sitting next to the empress dowager, and said, "Thanks to the love of the heavenly family, what can a husband ask for if he has a wife like this?"

"Speaking of this, the Ai family remembered something. Meng Qi's birthday is coming soon. The regent must be busy with the case of the Minister of the Household Department, so she must hold her birthday party in the palace this year."

Before Lin Jihan could speak, Shen Mengqi took the empress dowager's hand and wanted to decline first, but before the refusal was spoken, the empress dowager's little mouth pouted, and some children said in a heart-to-heart manner, "You are not allowed to talk, As soon as you say sorry for your family, you know that you want to refuse. Whoever loves the children of the family, even if the children of our heavenly family are covered with dust, they are not to be despised."

The Empress Dowager mentioned Lin Jihan both explicitly and secretly in her words, but Lin Jihan didn't seem to hear it, and stared straight at Shen Mengqi beside her with a pair of eagle eyes, as if watching a prey that broke into her territory.

Shen Mengqi straightened her back, she looked at Lin Jihan and said, "My lord, I want to talk to my grandmother, you."

"The king is waiting for you outside."

Lin Jihan didn't wait for Shen Mengqi and the Empress Dowager to refuse, and directly said goodbye to the Empress Dowager: "I will leave."

As soon as the talent left the Compassionate Ning Palace, the Empress Dowager hugged Shen Mengqi and began to play tricks, "My darling, why did you keep talking to the Prince Regent just now, it really broke the heart of Aijia."

"Grandson talked to him and sold his face, so that outsiders can believe that the royal family and the regent are in the same breath, and can appease the hearts of the soldiers of the Nine Nether Thirteen Commanderies."

In front of Shen Mengqi, the empress dowager has always been easy to talk, she looked at Shen Mengqi distressedly and said: "It's okay not to mention this matter, but your birthday must be held in the palace, otherwise the Ai family can't rest assured, and Nan Chen said you I haven't been able to sleep well lately, it's nothing more than having nightmares all the time, and the regent is here to make trouble for you."

Shen Mengqi turned her head to look at Nan Chen when she heard the words, Nan Chen was stared at uncomfortably and hurriedly slipped away: "The slaves are also going out to wait for Your Highness the Princess."

"Grandmother, don't listen to Nan Chen's nonsense, grandson is fine."

"How are you?"

The Empress Dowager pointed at Shen Mengqi's black eyes and said, "No matter how dark you are now, you can rival that Bao Gong!"

"It's true that I didn't sleep well last night, but this birthday ceremony must be held at the Prince Regent's Mansion."

Seeing that the Empress Dowager was about to get angry again, she hugged the Empress Dowager first and said, "Since my grandson married into the Prince Regent's Mansion, I have never held a family banquet. Birthday, due to reason and reason, the birthday ceremony must be held at the Prince Regent's Mansion, otherwise the officials in the court will probably talk about it again."

Why doesn't the empress dowager know this, but
"Don't worry, Grandmother. It's been so many years. My grandson's nightmare is far from as serious as it was before. Besides, Nanchen is watching over the child. Nothing will happen. My grandson will not treat me badly. This birthday gift , my son wants to do something special, it will be more ostentatious than when he was in the palace, and he will have more face!"

The Empress Dowager felt more comfortable when she heard that it took more than half of the time, she said happily: "Okay, when the time comes, the Ai family will personally send you a congratulatory gift!"

"No!"

Looking at the empress dowager who immediately pursed her mouth, Shen Mengqi explained: "The emperor's grandmother is here, and the officials and family members can't make waves."

The empress dowager still acted coquettishly: "But the Ai family wants to be with my sweetheart."

Shen Mengqi listened to the empress dowager's side and said: "The birthday banquet is for outsiders to watch, and the grandson's favorite has always been the empress dowager."

The corner of the Empress Dowager's mouth couldn't stop rising, she poked the tip of Shen Mengqi's nose and said: "You are used to tricking me."

Shen Mengqi coaxed the empress dowager for a while longer before leaving.As soon as she left, the empress dowager saw the sachet Shen Mengqi had left aside. She picked it up and smelled it, and it smelled of sweet-scented osmanthus.

Looking at the familiar embroiderers on the sachet, the empress dowager sighed distressedly, "The royal family is in trouble, and it is my heart that suffers~"
