Hairpin Phoenix

   Chapter 302 Sacred Heart (1)

  The Wenhua Hall was instantly quiet.

  Emperor Yongjia fixedly looked at the prince kneeling on the ground. After a long while, he slowly asked, "You are not good at military affairs, so why bother to invite your troops to suffer on the battlefield?"

  Isn’t it sweet to stay in the capital and be a prince safely?

  Why are you asking for trouble?

   Or are you afraid that your brothers will make great achievements on the battlefield and threaten your crown prince?

  Li Jing raised his eyes and looked at Emperor Yongjia: "My son said that he has no selfishness, and the royal father will not believe it. The son and the royal father are truthful, and they are indeed selfish."

"This battle has been won, and the Great Wei has pacified the Central Plains and ruled the world. The father emperor established a new dynasty and achieved an immortal foundation for all generations. The son and minister also wanted to contribute to conquer the world with the father emperor. Instead of watching the father emperor and his brothers go up On the battlefield, hide in the capital and enjoy the success."

   "It's fine to say that I have selfish intentions, or that I want to make meritorious deeds. In short, I will go with the royal father."

Li Jing bluntly admitted his selfishness, but it made Emperor Yongjia's expression a lot more relaxed: "It's a good thing that you have this heart. However, no matter how loyal your officials are, someone must stay in the capital. If you don't want to stay, then Who should stay?"

  Li Jing replied without thinking, "Let the fourth and fifth brothers stay!"

   "The fifth brother is still young and can't go to war. After the fourth brother gets married, he has no children, so let him stay in the capital."

  Emperor Yongjia's expression changed again.

   Several princes have grown up, the eldest prince has a concubine, the crown prince has a pair of children, and the third prince and concubine do not know whether it is a male or a female, and finally has a child. Only the fourth prince has not been married for a month.

   If the fourth prince is to lead the army, in case there is any good or bad, and there is no bloodline... From this point of view, the fourth prince should really stay.

  Li Jing saw that Emperor Yongjia was moved and knew that the majority of the matter was done, so he didn't rush to rush, and continued to kneel.

After a while, Emperor Yongjia said: "This matter is no trivial matter, I have to think about it. You should step back first!" After a pause, he added: "Don't talk about this matter for the time being. When I think about it, I will order myself.”

  Li Jing replied in a low voice, got up and retire.

  Li Jing's figure quickly disappeared in front of his eyes.

  Emperor Yongjia was a little confused and couldn't read the memorial, so he got up and paced back and forth. After walking back and forth in Wenhua Hall dozens of times, he took a deep breath and made a decision.

  …

   After returning to the East Palace, Li Jing played with a pair of children for a long time, until both siblings fell asleep.

  The husband and wife had time to talk.

   "I have already declared my intention to the royal father to lead the army." Li Jing put his hands on Lu Mingyu's shoulders and looked at Lu Mingyu deeply: "Although the royal father agreed at the time, he has already made his move."

   "With the temper of the father, the decree will soon be issued."

   "Xiaoyu, when I leave, I don't know when I will be back. The heavy responsibility of taking care of a pair of children rests on your shoulders. The East Palace has to be entrusted to you."

   In the previous life, this battle was fought for nearly two years.

   In this life, because of their rebirth, many things are different from the previous life. It is unknown how long this vicious battle will be fought and whether it will be able to return safely.

  Lu Mingyu stretched out his right hand and put it lightly on the back of Li Hao's hand: "We are husband and wife, we share weal and woe. You don't need to say anything about hard work. There is me in the palace, you can rest assured."

  As the crown prince, he shoulders the responsibility of the country, and he has to protect not only his wife and children.

   He has to shoulder his heavy responsibility and change the outcome of everyone's death. The heavy burden on his shoulders is more than a thousand miles! All she can do is straighten her back and share the burden with him.

   A glint of water flashed in Li Jing's eyes, and he reached out and hugged her tightly. Burning lips kept falling behind her ears and face.

  Lu Mingyu put his arms around his neck and responded with unprecedented enthusiasm.

The    gauze curtain fell quickly, and it trembled lightly in the middle of the night.

  …

   The end of the year is approaching, and everything in the DPRK is busy. The trivial matters in the harem are more than twice as many as usual.

When Queen Qiao got busy, she made her daughter-in-law a strong man and handed over some of the palace affairs to Lu Mingyu.

  Lu Mingyu did not refuse either. After taking over the palace affairs, his methods were neat and resolute.

   Maybe it was because of her reputation, or maybe it was because she killed a chicken and an example of a monkey at the beginning and got a bad manager. The rest of the stewards were extraordinarily honest and calm in front of her, and they managed the palace affairs more smoothly than Queen Qiao.

   Queen Qiao couldn't help laughing and sighing: "No wonder everyone wants to be a villain. Sure enough, villains are afraid of villains."

  Lu Mingyu coughed: "Is this mother implying that my daughter-in-law is a villain?"

  The relationship between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law is harmonious, and Queen Qiao also jokes and jokes from time to time: "This is not what this palace said. Just look at the stewards one by one in front of you and dare not breathe, you should know."

  Lu Mingyu smiled: "It's okay! If the mother can't take care of it, she can just send it to her daughter-in-law."

   It was almost noon after finishing the work of the palace.

   Queen Qiao hurriedly ordered her brother and sister to hug her: "I haven't seen my good grandson and granddaughter for a long time. Hurry up and let this palace take a look."

   It’s really impossible to live without a day.

   Queen Qiao hugged her grandson in her left hand and her granddaughter in her right hand, with a wide-eyed smile, not to mention how happy she was.

  Lu Mingyu pursed his lips and smiled, and ordered to prepare a meal. When it was time to eat, Li Jing also came.

   Queen Qiao didn't ask where Emperor Yongjia went at all, and greeted Li Jing with a smile: "Come here quickly, Brother Jie and Sister Xuan are so happy."

  Li Jing smiled and said, "Of course I'm happy when someone holds it."

   said that, holding her more vigorously than Queen Joe.

  The family finished their lunch in a lively manner. Li Jingchong gave Lu Mingyu a wink, and Lu Mingyu understood and returned to the East Palace with a pair of children.

   After half an hour, Li Jingcai came back from Jiaofang Palace.

   "Did you tell your mother?" Lu Mingyu asked in a low voice.

  Li Jing sighed softly: "Said. The mother refused to let me go at first. I tried my best to persuade the mother for a long time, and she reluctantly agreed. However, she also cried."

   In the previous life, the news of Li Jing's death spread to the palace. Queen Qiao vomited blood and fell into a coma. She was seriously ill and died soon. Among them is Concubine Su's handwriting, and it is also a fact that Queen Qiao was severely damaged and devastated. Otherwise, Su Fei would not have lost his life so easily.

   This is also one of Li Jing's heart knots.

  Lu Mingyu stepped forward silently and gave Li Jing silent comfort.

   Li Jing put his arms around her, touched her chin on her forehead, and said in a low voice, "My mother is in a bad mood. I will spend more time with my mother these few days."

  Lu Mingyu hummed: "I often take my children to talk to the queen mother." After a pause, she said, "Don't worry, I will take good care of the queen mother."

   Husband and wife are of one mind, and there is no need to thank them.

   Li Jing's heart was surging, and he whispered a few words in her ear.

   Lu Mingyu's heart was heavy, he flew away instantly, and spit Li Jing with a smile. Li Jing laughed softly, picked up Lu Mingyu and went to the bed.
