The Empress Dowager's funeral finally ended after seven days. If it had been an ordinary day, the clan government would have made a grand celebration of it.

But the emperor said that the Great Jin Kingdom was surrounded and ambushed by the Three Kingdoms. If the First Lady Qin Zhongyue had not led the donation, the emptied national treasury would not have been able to provide food and military expenses for the soldiers at the border, let alone win the battle so easily.

The Queen Mother will not blame me in this matter.

Since the emperor, as his son, said so, the clan house naturally had nothing to say, but they provided everything that was needed and did not deduct anything.

The emperor also paid a lot of subsidies from his own private treasury, otherwise it might not have been possible to achieve what it has now.

The emperor felt very miserable. He was probably the poorest emperor in history.

He hated Beiqiong, Xiliang and Nanling, which had surrounded the Jin Dynasty, even more.

By the time his Great Jin recovers, if he doesn't devour the three kingdoms step by step, he will have been emperor in vain.

But no matter what you do, you must first have money, and a lot of money!

He wanted those three countries to pay tribute every year, and they had to satisfy him, otherwise he would destroy them!

When those three countries become poorer than he is now, that will be the day for him to avenge himself!

The emperor had a plan for the future. Xiao Jingyi, Qin Erlu and General Pei, who had won the battle at the border, formed three large teams and entered the capital together.

If it were the emperor, he would definitely not dare to allow such a large and powerful army to enter the capital.

Even if they come in, they are sent in batches.

If these three families united to rebel, the emperor would have no choice but to surrender or commit suicide and give up the throne.

The emperor doesn't think so.

He was even secretly excited, wishing his younger brother would come and snatch this famous empty throne.

So that the emancipated serfs can sing.

Unfortunately, that is simply impossible and is just his own fantasy.

Xiao Jingyi returned victoriously this time. As a mighty general and the King of Freedom, he naturally took the lead and walked in front.

Following behind him was General Pei and then the younger generation Qin Erlu.

The emperor was delighted and personally led all the officials to the city gate to welcome the three generals back in triumph.

"Hahahaha!!! Welcome back the three generals in triumph!"

The emperor was the first to speak and he personally dismounted to greet them.

Since the emperor has done so much, who would dare to put on airs? Everyone followed the emperor to congratulate and welcome the three generals.

"Thank you for your hard work, three generals!

The soldiers have worked hard too!"

This time, the emperor gave enough face to all the soldiers.

Even those soldiers felt that being personally welcomed by the emperor, with a word of thanks for his hard work, would not hesitate to fight to the death even if they were asked to grab a few more territories.

Xiao Jingyi hurriedly jumped off his horse and stepped forward to support the emperor. This was his own elder brother, and now he represented the ruler of a country. How could he let the king treat him so well? If he did nothing, rumors would immediately spread that he wanted to seize the throne.

"Your Majesty has treated us well, and it is our duty to defend our country."

“Okay, okay!

I have prepared a delicious banquet to welcome you, my dear ministers!"

The Queen Mother had just passed away, so it was not appropriate to hold any grand banquets. At least a month had to pass before anything could be done secretly.

But these three generals brought a force only half of the enemy's, and defeated the attack of the three kingdoms by using the weak to defeat the strong. This will also be recorded in history books, and it is certainly worth welcoming.

None of the officials objected to this.

Xiao Jingyi, Qin Erlu and General Pei were taken directly to the palace by the emperor for the banquet.

Xiao Jingyi looked around along the way. When he passed by the Qin family shop, he saw the Qin family on the second floor, smiling and waving at them.

Xiao Jingyi also saw his wife in the crowd, holding a baby in her arms. His father-in-law, mother-in-law and Qin's eldest sister-in-law were all holding the same baby.

Could it be that one of the Qin family's sisters-in-law just gave birth to a child, and he doesn't know about it? How rude.

Looking at his wife and the baby she was holding, he wished he could fly over to see the child he and his wife had. That was his own child. He also had a child!

It was a hateful thing that the invasion of Xiliang prevented him from being by his wife's side when she gave birth. Thinking of this, he regretted not killing a few more enemies.

Xiliang should come to thank his child for saving the lives of those who survived.

The emperor saw the emperor staring at one place without blinking, so he looked over and saw the princess and her family on the second floor of the Qin's shop.

"We won this battle so easily, all thanks to the First Lady Protector of the Nation. The First Lady Protector of the Nation really lives up to her name."

The emperor said to the eunuch Xiao Anzi beside him: "Xiao Anzi went to invite the First Protector of the Nation to the palace to attend the welcoming banquet, and the Protector of the Nation also has a share of the credit.

General Qin's wife also made great contributions. It is said that she saved General Qin's life. If it were not for Madam Qin's rescue, the Great Jin might have lost such a capable general as General Qin. We have to invite her.

The Qin family has raised so many outstanding men and made great contributions to the Jin Dynasty. They have made an invaluable contribution. As for the Pei family, I will take this opportunity to save trouble and invite them all."

"Yes."

Xiao Anzi walked quickly to Qin's shop and then to Pei's.

The other officials were all envious and jealous when they heard this.

They also wanted the emperor to make things easier for them.

It was not uncommon for generals to return triumphantly, but here were only three of them whose entire family was invited to a banquet by the emperor.

Anyone who says they are not envious is really blind and talking nonsense.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your love!"

Qin Erlu and General Pei hurriedly bowed to the emperor to express their gratitude, only Xiao Jingyi accepted it silently.

In his opinion, the biggest credit for the easy victory of the Three Kingdoms' attack was his wife. If it weren't for his wife, the Jin Dynasty might have been destroyed by now. The emperor invited his wife to dinner, which was really stingy.

But he could also understand the emperor's current urgency.

When the Qin family learned that the whole family would go to the palace to attend the generals' welcoming banquet, they were extremely honored and happy.

"Do you want to go back and change your clothes?"

It was the first time for Jiang and Qin Renshan to enter the palace, and for the two couples, Qin Dafu and Qin Sanshou, it felt like gold had fallen from the sky and they didn't know what to do.

“No need, didn’t we wear new clothes specially today to pick up the prince and second brother? They are all still neat.

It will take a lot of time to go back and change it.

Didn't Master Xiao Anzi say that he would also invite my second sister-in-law's family to come to the palace together? Let's go to the palace with the Pei family."

With Qin Zhongyue's affirmation, the family no longer talked about going home to change clothes, and they all excitedly went out and got on the carriage.

When they entered the palace, they had to pay their respects to the Emperor and the Empress. The Emperor simply waived the etiquette of the two families. The Empress was even less likely to put on airs, and the other concubines were even less likely to put on airs. Not only did their families come over to make friends with them, but their families also came over to make friends with them.

The Qin family has truly become a new elite, unlike before.

Many people felt sorry that the children of the Qin family had all started their own families, and regretted that they had made a mistake at the time. Otherwise, perhaps they would be able to gain face in front of the emperor with the Qin family now.

It’s too late to say anything now, but seeing that there are quite a few grandchildren in the Qin family, my heart becomes warm again.

Ever since his wife and children entered the palace, Xiao Jingyi has had no time to deal with those ministers.

But there are always those people who don’t know what is good for them and want to find a sense of existence.

Xiao Jingyi was annoyed by those few people who insisted on talking to him and he had lost all his patience.

"I have been away at war for half a year and I have not seen my child yet. Why are you stopping me?

It seems like you can open your mouth and speak, right?

I've already told you to ask General Qin and General Pei. They will definitely tell you. If you keep pestering me, I'll punish you. Don't think that I'm easy to talk to just because today is my welcoming banquet. Get out of here!"

Xiao Jingyi pushed aside the ministers who were pestering him and went towards Qin Zhongyue.

"Thank you for your hard work, grandma!"

When Xiao Jingyi saw that the Empress Dowager was also holding a baby, he hurriedly thanked her and then turned to Jiang and Qin Renshan who were also holding babies.

"Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law and mother-in-law!"

"Your Majesty, your words are too serious. This is what we should do."

Xiao Jingyi smiled and looked at the baby in Qin Zhongyue's arms.

“This is our child.”

Seeing how impatient he was, Qin Zhongyue didn't want to tease him anymore and nodded.

"Well, they all are. It's their first time seeing their father. Take a good look."

"it is good.

Can I hug you? My wife will teach me."

Xiao Jingyi didn't care where he was or what others thought of him. He was a prince and didn't need anyone's opinion of him. He didn't care and could do whatever he wanted.
