With the Xiao family's father and son in front of them, the young and old generals at the table soon became active. We are all rough people, and we don't have the attention of civil servants on this kind of thing. They don't mind seeing the emperor, so what else do they mind?
Woolen cloth?
In addition, there have been several generations of emperors in the Yan Dynasty who have valued civility over military affairs, so that they, the warriors, lived an extremely miserable life. Therefore, after finally meeting Feng Wuyan, they suddenly became more relaxed.
"Your Majesty, you don't know that we in the north are suffering. Ordnance, food, soldiers...what kind of things don't cost money? What kind of things don't go out to consume?"
"That's right, it's freezing cold. Who among us doesn't want to live a good life? Who doesn't want to take his wife and children back to the capital to enjoy the blessings? But we can't. If we retreat, what will happen to the thousands of people behind Beiliang?
ah?"
"I can't say it's all sincerity, but there is absolutely no such thing as betrayal! Our Duke and the Marquis are even more determined to serve the country. You, you have to believe in us!"
"Stop talking! What do each of them look like?"
Xiao Jing took a group of old subordinates with him and said with some resentment:
"I asked you to come to eat today, not to complain! Shut up! Come on, Ayi, stop their mouths for your father and me!"
Xiao Yi just laughed when he heard this, but did not actually cover the other people's mouths, because he knew that if Feng Wuyan really didn't want to listen, no one here would be able to make noise in front of him.
Except Xiruo.
And this is also true. Feng Wuyan quickly patted his father-in-law on the shoulder and said to the generals solemnly:
"I am aware of your demands. As long as I reign, the imperial court will not treat you badly. I put these words here and ask my father-in-law and brother to bear witness."
When Feng Wuyan said this, the general who had been making a fuss over the wine just fell silent.
Because do they really want the emperor to give them anything?
not necessarily.
Each of them has their own original intention, and they stayed in Beiliang to protect their homeland and country, so no matter how hard or tired they are, they will not back down.
But similarly, after so many years, they did have some resentment towards the imperial court, and they had many complaints that they wanted to exploit.
Therefore, Feng Wuyan sitting at the wine table today is just an outlet for them to vent their emotions. They only need to listen and do not need to respond. They do not think that the other party will respond.
As the emperor, Feng Wuyan only needs to express that he heard it and then give everyone a few perfunctory words.
Who would have thought that as soon as this person opened his mouth, he would actually make a real promise that they could not refute.
After so many years of marginal treatment, they felt a little uncomfortable when they were suddenly taken seriously.
In addition, they were all clumsy and tongue-tied, and for a while they couldn't say anything nice. They wanted to say "Thank you, Your Majesty" but felt it was too soft, so they fell silent instead.
Not only them, Xiao Jing and Xiao Yi were also a little confused. On the contrary, Xiao Xiruo, who was eating with Chu Jiaojiao, lost her chopsticks and said seriously:
"Well, I heard it. I heard it with both ears! I will give you this certificate. Don't worry, I am reliable!"
Everyone: "?"
They didn't know whether the imperial concubine was trustworthy. They only knew that the scene in front of them was so strange that they didn't know how to express it.
On the other hand, Feng Wuyan stretched out his hand and rubbed the girl's head, looking at her with a pair of peach blossom eyes, his whole person was extremely gentle.
A group of generals even saw the emperor personally pick up a handkerchief, wipe the oil stains from the corners of the girl's mouth, and then whisper to her not to be greedy.
The girl who heard this seemed to mutter something in a low voice, and then put down the grilled lamb chops in her hand with a gloomy look.
Good guy, everyone saw clearly now that this lady who used to only eat soup and vegetables, and ate lighter meals every meal, today actually tried to eat grilled lamb chops in front of everyone's eyes...
"You girl! How much have you eaten? Come on, show her!"
When Xiao Jing saw that half of the mutton chop was missing, he suddenly became nervous. He got up and wanted to find the doctor at home to show Xiao Xiruo.
Because in his impression, his daughter would never touch these things.
However, compared with his reaction, the reactions of Xiao Yi, Xue Xue and others seemed much normal. Some people were responsible for supporting Xiao Jing, while others called Wen Susu to ask her to express her opinions.
Xiao Xiruo was the only one with a helpless look on her face, thinking that she would have stopped speaking just now if she had known they were so aggressive.
Fortunately, Wen Susu now has a well-known medical reputation in Dayan. When Xiao Jing heard that her daughter was fine, she relaxed.
And after learning that his daughter's health was getting better recently and she didn't have to worry so much about food and clothing, Xiao Jing felt even more refreshed and pulled her son-in-law beside him to have a few more drinks.
So, when Xiao Xiruo and Chu Jiaojiao finished eating and walked to the backyard together, Feng Wuyan and Xiao Yi were still pulled by their old father, laughing and drinking, swearing that they would not get drunk tonight or come back...
Seeing Xiao Xiruo and Chu Jiaojiao leaving, Feng Wuyan and Xiao Yi felt a headache.
If possible, they really want to get drunk quickly...
It was night, and the lights were brightly lit in the Third Prince's Mansion in Beiyi King City. After carefully searching for a group of suspicious persons, Garuda finally set his sights on the Sixth Prince's Mansion...
To be more precise, it was the sixth prince Sang Qing, the princess who had just passed through the family but rarely appeared in public.
"Yue Mingbu, Serina..."
Looking at the name on the paper with ghostly eyes, Garuda felt that it was necessary to meet this woman.
However, this kind of meeting must avoid Sang Qing, otherwise everything will become meaningless.
"Your Highness, as far as I know, the Sixth Prince has been in the Lausanne Lake Plain these days. We can visit his mansion at night..."
The counselor stood beside Garuda and said in a low voice.
In the past, Garuda would have disdained to do such a thing, but after Diya's guidance, he felt that all suspicious people in the royal city must be investigated.
So after burning incense, Garuda came to the outside of the Sixth Prince's Mansion with two of his followers.
"Prince and Concubine, do you want to rest so early?"
In the room, Kai looked at Yan Moqing in front of him with some surprise, feeling that the time for him to rest was getting earlier and earlier recently.
Although they have been giving each other medicine according to their master's request, the medicine should not cause drowsiness.
Could it be that she is pregnant?
Kai shook his head, impossible, the master is so cautious, how could it be possible...
"Well, the weather has been getting colder recently, and I always want to stay on the couch to keep warm. I fall asleep while warm."
Yan Moqing replied calmly in her usual tone. As the host, she didn't explain much. Naturally, Kai didn't dare to ask any more questions.
Seeing Kai push open the door and leave, Yan Moqing completely relaxed her guard and began to use the internal power she had learned in this world under the covers.
In fact, this is why she goes to bed early these days.
However, just when she was about to hold her breath and concentrate, there was an unusual noise outside the hospital.
