The reborn prince can't be pushed down

Chapter 264 Gifts and Rewards

In the twinkling of an eye, it was two days before the Qianqiu Festival. The son of King Kangyu and his concubine arrived at the imperial capital and paid homage to the palace.

Ning Ziyi, the eldest son of King Kangyu, is 20 years old this year. People in the Ning family have a good appearance, and this Ning Ziyi is no exception.

Facing these surreptitious glances, Ning Ziyi's eyes swept across these beautiful maids, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally, and praised with a smile: "His Royal Highness is indeed unparalleled, no wonder His Majesty vacates the Ascension Dragon Palace, and the Imperial Fu Living together in the same palace!"

The corners of Jiang Nian's mouth curled up habitually, with a half-smile, and he graciously recognized Ning Ziyi's compliment.

Shi Wanyao, the Crown Princess, glanced sharply at the young maids, supported her waist with one hand, and caressed her obviously protruding abdomen with the other. The bit of hostility on her face actually damaged her beauty.

Ning Yuezhao shifted her eyes to Shi Wanyao, first looked at her belly, her red lips slightly raised, "The concubine Shizi traveled a long distance to the imperial capital while she was pregnant, which shows that she has a deep affection for the son and wife."

When the couple entered the palace just now, Ning Yuezhao saw the maids accompanying Shi Wanyao, all of them were ordinary-looking and slightly fat.Looking at Ning Ziyi's flirtatious and affectionate look now, she must be a powerful concubine who is pregnant with Liujia and has to follow her husband around, and the maids who serve her close to her are all like this, not so much affectionate, It's better to say that you don't worry.

Shi Wanyao caressed her abdomen, and said with a bit of complacency: "Your Majesty praised me, the child in my womb knows how to love my mother, and the journey didn't feel hard."

The master next to her is a flirt, if she doesn't follow, I'm afraid she will add a few more concubines when she goes back to the backyard!
Ning Ziyi gave his wife a spoiled look, and said helplessly, "She is ignorant, Your Majesty should not argue with her."

"The concubine Shizi has a straightforward temper. I appreciate it very much. How can I blame her?"

Ning Yuezhao secretly admired the speed of this cousin's face change, just now he was still flirting with the maidservant, and now he immediately looked affectionate, which was really admirable.

Shi Wanyao saw that there seemed to be affection in her husband's eyes, so she sat closer to him, with an even more smug expression on her face.

Ning Ziyi patted his wife's hand lightly, and said to the two people on the throne: "This time, I owed the blessing of His Royal Highness's birthday to have the opportunity to take a look at the prosperity of the imperial capital. Take a turn around and find a suitable place to plant the Phoenix tree."

That Phoenix tree was the reason why Ning Ziyi left the fief to come to the imperial capital this time. Right now, it is being placed in the Emperor Kangyu Palace in the imperial capital, and it will be officially presented in two days.

Ning Yuezhao smiled and beckoned Lan Sha and Yuan Xi, and said, "You two accompany King Kangyu's son around the palace."

After finishing speaking, she turned to Ning Ziyi, "These two are able to serve me by my side, so let them accompany your son."

Ning Ziyi cupped his hands and said, "Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness!"

Although he was a little annoyed that Ning Yuezhao had only sent two servants to lead the way, but as the son of a vassal king and in the other party's territory, he had to try his best to show a respectful appearance.

Shi Wanyao hurriedly said, "I'm going too!"

A trace of impatience flashed quickly in Ning Ziyi's eyes, and he said in a calm tone: "You are heavy, so let's talk to His Majesty here."

Shi Wanyao hurriedly said: "The doctor told me that walking around every day is good for production!"

Ning Ziyi said patiently, "These days have been exhausting, you should take a rest here, and your husband will be back soon."

At this moment, the palace servants outside the hall came in to report, "Your Majesty, General Xiao is begging to see you!"

Xiao Jingtian is back?Ning Yuezhao was a little surprised, it was only a month or so since the northwest rebellion subsided, and at the beginning of the month Zhao Qian didn't say that Xiao Jingtian was going back to the border to handle some affairs, why did he go back to the imperial capital in only half a month?

During the time when Ning Yuezhao was in doubt, Jiang Nian had already faintly said, "Your Majesty Guhe wants to meet the general and has no time to take care of the concubine, so the son and the concubine went to the Imperial Garden for a walk. Since the doctor has explained everything, I want to come It's okay too."

After receiving Jiang Nian's words, Shi Wanyao hurriedly said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness!"

After finishing speaking, she firmly held Ning Ziyi's arm with a look of joy.

Ning Ziyi had no choice but to leave with Shi Wanyao.

Ning Yuezhao waved her hand, "General Xuan Xiao has an audience."

"My minister sees Your Majesty, Imperial Husband!"

Xiao Jingtian, who was dressed in black and strong, stepped into the main hall with breezy tiger steps, and bowed to the two of them.

"Stay flat,"

Ning Yuezhao looked at the dusty Xiao Jingtian, he must have come back day and night on horseback, and went straight into the palace without even returning to the general's mansion.

"Why did Xiao Qing come back at this time?"

"The minister said that he would present a generous gift for the emperor's husband's birthday, and this is the fulfillment of his promise."

Xiao Jingtian grinned, showing his white teeth. He has been on the road day and night for the past few days, which inevitably makes his description a bit unruly, but this does not detract from his demeanor at all, but adds a bit of perseverance.

Jiang Nian picked up the teacup in hand, took a sip, and said in a casual tone: "The distance from the northwest to the imperial capital, it would take more than half a month to travel on horseback normally, and the general traveled day and night to come back before the Qianqiu Festival, is he going to give Gu a big gift? But seeing that you are empty-handed, it really doesn't look like you have any kind gifts."

Xiao Jingtian stood upright, maintaining a smile on his face, "I don't need to carry this gift with effort, but His Royal Highness is satisfied with it. I have already cut off all the fine work on the northwest frontier. The weather is hot, and it coincides with the emperor's husband Birthday, the bloody head will not be brought to the imperial capital, so I made this trip myself."

After speaking, he took out a report from his sleeve and handed it to the palace servants in the palace.

Jiang Nian took the memorial, read it, and said with satisfaction: "I am very satisfied with this gift."

Ning Yuezhao took the memorial from Jiang Nian, glanced at it briefly, "These heads should be sent to Yi Chu!"

The hateful Beiqi people, although they didn't do much in detail, let Beiqi open a gap in the Daxing border, this time Xiao Jingtian completely closed the gap.

Xiao Jingtian stared at her, and said with a little ease in his voice: "Your Majesty's orders, I have already done this, it's a pity that I can't see the expression of Emperor Beiqi receiving this great gift with my own eyes, what a pity!"

Before Ning Yuezhao opened his mouth, Jiang Nian said indifferently: "General Xiao has made great achievements this time, what reward does General Xiao want?"

Xiao Jingtian raised his eyebrows and looked at Jiang Nian, "Since Your Highness has spoken, I want to ask His Highness for an order."

"What purpose?" Jiang Nian unconsciously stretched out his hand to hold Ning Yuezhao's catkin, the way Xiao Jingtian looked at Ning Yuezhao made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"I hope that Your Highness will suspend the matter of the forbidden army going to Jinzhou to garrison the fields, and instead let the Northwest Army garrison the fields near the border."

　I have been busy at work for the past two days, and I can't take care of the code words, sorry...
