The whole family went crazy after reading my mind, and I became a favorite after eating melons

Chapter 76 Deterrence
  The future crown prince of the Song Dynasty, just sitting there quietly and looking at people lightly, is enough to make people scared.

Xu Ziying was so frightened that he had goosebumps, but Xu Zhiyan didn't feel any strange at all. She even hooked Li Wenjin's sleeve and chirped and asked him if he had any interesting things to share along the way.

Li Wenjin lowered his eyes to look at her with gentle eyes.

"I went to three cities this time, so I went a little longer. The characteristics of each city are very novel, so I brought a lot of things for you. I have already sent people to deliver them to your yard."

Her eyes sparkled when she heard this, and she continued to talk softly.

Xu Ziying, who was completely ignored, felt relieved that he did not have to face Li Wenjin directly, but also felt unwilling to do so. Under the tug of these two emotions, he coughed a few times, interrupting their conversation.

"Your Highness has been traveling all the way. I think he is tired. I will immediately send someone to arrange a reception banquet."

"No need, Gu Bu will eat at the same table with someone who is disrespectful to Xiao Yan."

After speaking, Li Wenjin stood up and pulled Xu Zhiyan up, "The emperor and the empress are waiting for us in the palace, let's go."

Xu Zhiyan pointed at herself and said, "With me?"

"Yes, my father, the emperor and my mother have told me many times that I want to take you to the palace for a light meal."

Li Wenjin said as she walked out with Xu Zhiyan. When she stepped out of the threshold, she looked back at Xu Ziying, "Master Xu, you must remember clearly the difference between concubine and concubine. Secondly, I have another piece of advice: if you spoil your concubine, you will destroy your wife. But it’s illegal.”

……

Xu Zhiyan was led by Li Wenjin and walked along the palace road, chattering non-stop, "Wen Jin, you are so awesome, you can make my father stop with just one sentence, and the expressions of the mother and daughter make me laugh even in my dreams." .”

[It seems that they dared to make trouble like that before because I was too merciful in handling them. If they make trouble again in the future, I will be more ruthless. 】

[It’s just that these two backhouses can be intimidated for a while if they are more ruthless. Xu Shixue outside will not be intimidated so easily, and if I remember correctly, he will also come up with ways to control floods in the south. 】

[That method looks good, but it’s just false. After using it, there were countless deaths and injuries. 】

She is also someone who has personally experienced natural disasters, and knows better than anyone else that disasters are ruthless, so she can't stand the fact that the people who are already struggling to survive have to make it more difficult because of Xu Shixue's random lies in order to gain credit.

Li Wenjin's body tensed slightly, as if she mentioned Xu Shixue inadvertently.

"This mother and daughter are so good at scheming. Will Xu Shi learn to be more difficult? Do you need my help?"

Xu Zhiyan raised her head and smiled brightly at him.

"Xu Shixue is being restrained by my uncle and brother-in-law, and for the sake of his own career, he doesn't dare to act recklessly, but I heard that he has been studying the floods in the south recently."

"Wen Jin, I'm not targeting him. Xu Shixue is more eager for quick success now, and some things are just talk on paper. If he really offers any strategies, Wen Jin, you should take a closer look."

[Hey, you can't directly say that Xu Shixue's plan will kill people. If you just say it like this, people who don't know will think that I am just trying to blow his mind. It's really difficult. 】

Xu Zhiyan's wrinkled little face looked very cute, and Li Wenjin couldn't help but pinch it.

"You're so worried, okay, I'll remember it and I'll pay attention."

"Okay."

While they were talking, they had arrived at their destination, and the emperor and queen were already waiting there. When they saw them, they waved and said, "Here we come, Nannan, come and sit next to me."

The queen herself moved the stool next to her.

Xu Zhiyan trotted over and gave her a loving hug before sitting down.

"Queen, I miss you so much. My mother has been thinking about coming to see you for a long time, but things just snowballed, getting more and more, and that's why she was delayed." The queen tapped the tip of her nose.

"You girl, you have been sweet-talking and coaxing people since you were a child. I don't know about your mother yet. She has been dealing with her since she was a child. She must be too busy to even think of coming to me. Don't try to make up for your mother. "

Xu Zhiyan stuck out her tongue.

[Oh my god, is this my best friend? It is true that we understand each other more clearly than we understand ourselves. 】

Li Wenjin pursed her lips and smiled, interrupting their greetings, "It's almost time, let's eat first."

The emperor responded, "Yes, the food will be cold if we don't eat."

As he said this, he took the lead in picking up a chopstick of food, and the banquet officially began.

At the dinner table, the emperor took the initiative to mention the marriage between Li Wenjin and Xu Zhiyan, "You two have decided to get married as children. Now that Xiaoyan is getting haircut, when are you going to get married?"

Xu Zhiyan didn't expect that he would mention this, she pursed her lips and put down her chopsticks, and glanced at Li Wenjin subconsciously.

Li Wenjin was calm.

"Father, this matter is not urgent."

"You have ordered me to patrol the Song Dynasty to train the crown prince. The Song Dynasty has a vast territory, and now I have only visited less than half of it. If I marry Xiaoyan home at this time, she will basically have to stay alone for the whole year. , I feel bad.”

This is indeed a problem.

The emperor pondered for a moment.

"But now that you are away for a long time, it is also a problem that you two cannot cultivate a good relationship. In this case, you will leave for the next city next month. Take Xiaoyan with you."

"Although all ladies have to stay close to home, Xiaoyan, you are definitely the crown princess and the future queen. It is not good for you to be confined in the back house all the time and not develop your vision."

"I think my queen often traveled in disguise."

He looked at the queen gently.

The queen smiled gently.

"Yes, when I was young, I would often disguise myself and go out of the palace on a whim. I had seen the beautiful water in the south of the Yangtze River and the wind and snow in the north of the Great Wall. It wasn't until I got older and tired that I stopped bothering with it."

"Nanny, you haven't officially become a member of the royal family yet. You can still go out without having to disguise yourself. Cherish this time and go out with Wen Jin to have a look. I'll tell you about your mother."

Xu Zhiyan had long wanted to go out to play, but she never dared to mention it because of what Hua Rong said when she was young. Now that the Queen has offered to help solve her mother's shackles, she is extremely happy.

"Then thank you, Queen!"

"What's there to thank you for? Come on, eat more. When you're full, let Wen Jin take you to the warehouse to pick out things, especially fabrics. Be sure to pick out more and let the Shangyi Bureau cut you some nice and light clothes. .”

The warehouses in the palace are full of good stuff. After Xu Zhiyan finished eating, she took Li Wenjin and set off. After entering, she looked at the rows of fabrics and her eyes were dazzled.

"There are so many, I don't know how to choose."

Hearing this, Li Wenjin stepped forward and opened a few boxes, "These two boxes are tributes just received this year. They are of high quality and the colors are not that bright, which suits your aesthetics."
