  Chapter 813 Ten-year period

  After dinner, news of Lin Tingyan's capture reached the Langzhou state capital. Lin Jinxiao was as happy as a child, and when he returned to the inner room, he hugged Chu Nanzhi and refused to let go.

  Before, I thought that the lady was just a joke, but I didn't expect that she would help me to pacify Qinghe Sanzhou without bloodshed.

   Now that the world is at peace, besides having a grander blueprint in his heart, the most impatient thing right now is to reward the heroes who have quelled the rebellion with him.

Let the wet nurses carry little Ruiji and Xiao Ruisi out, and he sat down at the desk and began to draft the edict himself, but before writing, he first thought of his deceased teacher, and couldn't help frowning: "Old Chang has no heirs, unfortunately It's a pity that I didn't see me pacify the world after I passed away."

  After thinking for a while, he continued: "With the merits of my mentor, I should have been conferred the first-class duke in the early years of the first emperor, but because of my father, I retired from the court early, so it was put on hold."

  With this in mind, he first wrote down the first decree of conferring favor: "Chasing Chang Yanjue as Tai Tuo, adding Rong Guogong, and hereditary succession."

Afterwards, he drafted the second decree of ennobling Nie Huai'an as Duke Rong Ning, and his brother Li Ce followed him in different battles, and even fulfilled the great task of bringing peace and stability to the country for him. He took the title of Lord of the Town.

  But when he was about to continue writing, Chu Nanzhi saw Chu Wenbi's name appearing in the duke list from a distance, and immediately moved closer, shaking his head decisively:

"At present, the situation has just stabilized, and my husband should be rewarded for his meritorious service. The two mentors and Saburo have made great contributions to the dragon. The conferment of the duke is well-deserved. Father and mother have already been rewarded by the ancestors for their merits. Junzhan, think more about Jingling's old ministers."

   After all, the imperial court spends a lot of money and food to support a lord's family every year.

Lin Jinxiao pulled her into his arms with a slight smile, and replied in a gentle voice: "The lady has always cared about others, but she would rather wrong herself, but the reward from her father-in-law and mother-in-law is absolutely indispensable this time. You also know that the emperor's grandmother has promoted many times over the years." The clansmen of Shaoyin and Ji families have many rewards, even though the emperor's grandmother had alerted the two families when she was out of the palace a while ago, but now these royal family members will inevitably be proud of being favored."

  Thinking of Yin Sinian and Ji Huaishu's participation in the queen's performance a few days ago, Lin Jinxiao still broods over it, and his eyes gradually become darker:

"Auntie interfered in government affairs and formed a party for personal gain all these years. No one accused her of crimes. It's just that they didn't touch their interests. However, what the lady did in Langzhou made them full of vigilance. Don't you know that there is no woman and father-in-law? Court."

After a pause, he said resolutely: "Let your husband decide on this matter. When the late emperor was in power, the emperor's grandmother had no choice but to shield the Yin and Ji families in order to balance the court situation, which caused the palace law to be slack. , leading to the tragedies of my aunt and Wanying, now only by rewarding meritorious deeds can we put an end to the unhealthy trend of relying on nepotism to gain favor."

   After finishing speaking, it was firmly written down in the list of dukes that Chu Wenbi, the patriarch of the state, was conferred the title of Duke of Changning.

  To this day, he still remembers his original intention when he took over as the county magistrate of Luyan Port, just to protect his family.

  Although he is now the emperor, his life and even everything he has gained are all brought about by his wife's step-by-step management. Apart from his deep love for Chu Nanzhi, he also has inexhaustible gratitude.

  Life in the palace is no different from that in Luyan Port, every step of the way can be described as frightening, so he would rather make himself appear weaker in front of the officials, but also establish the unique prestige of his queen in the harem and court.

  Only in this way, the dignitaries in Beijing will no longer dare to harm their own ladies.

And Chu Nanzhi listened to his high-sounding rhetoric, and couldn't refute his good intentions anymore. Thinking back to his violent and cold-blooded temperament in the past, and comparing him with his meekness and consideration for him now, even obedient to his words, he immediately realized that he was Strengthen your position.

   In addition to being moved, what is left in my heart is full of love.

She clung to Lin Jinxiao's arms, and persuaded softly, "Lin Dalang, actually, you don't have to think too much about me. I know that being a queen is not as bad as being a family in the village, being jealous, slandered, or even plotted against." It's inevitable, I'm actually very satisfied to have you treat each other so sincerely, even if you have the Sangong Sixth Court in the future, I won't be jealous."

   After finishing speaking, she raised her head and smiled slightly at him: "Marry a chicken as a chicken and marry a dog as a dog, whoever made me suffer."

   "Look how wronged you are."

Lin Jinxiao gently pinched the tip of her nose: "It is said that the royal family has no family ties, but I believe that as long as I work hard, life in the palace will not be worse than living in the village. It is said that the Ming Emperor of the previous dynasty was not only a reckless emperor, He is also a good husband and father who is good at running the family. He and Empress Yan have been in love with each other all their lives. He has never accepted the concubine as a concubine until his death. scene."

   After a moment of silence, he embraced Chu Nanzhi, and gradually expressed the true meaning in his heart:

"To say that Jin Shu, Cen An, and Yin Jia Erlang are indeed indispensable, this time I have no intention of rewarding the two families, and I have really wronged them when I ask myself, but with Yin Taiwei and Ji Shangshu's nepotism, clique for personal gain, and circle The unhealthy trend of forbidden land, not to mention rewards, it is not too much to imprison the whole family of the two families."

   "So you decided to balance merits and demerits, neither punish nor reward, let Yin Taiwei and Ji Shangshu reflect on their own?"

  Chu Nanzhi asked eagerly.

"exactly."

Lin Jinxiao smiled solemnly and said, "Don't think that my husband let you do whatever you want is purely out of love for you. If you want to reform the bureaucracy and stay in the imperial court, it's because your husband knows your temperament. You will not be arrogant because of your favor, and you are a person who understands righteousness, is selfless and fair everywhere, and many ways to govern the government can actually reverse the current decline, so even if you are allowed to take charge of the government, as a husband, I can rest assured of."

   "I don't want to be that political woman who is pointed at the spine and scolded."

Chu Nanzhi also returned a smile: "I know that now I should stay in the palace and take care of the affairs of the harem for you. It's just that I have participated in the investigation of various cases in various places in the past two years, and I have gained something. If I want to achieve long-term peace and stability in the country, The justice and strictness of the law is extremely important, and the Tingwei Mansion is the hub of the court's laws, if there is not a sound mechanism, it will be difficult to ensure the orderly operation of the whole country."

   "Then it will be ten years."

Lin Jinxiao smiled frankly: "It will take us ten years to bring this withered empire back into prosperity. By then, Ruiwen and the others will have grown up. Afterwards, we will continue to return to Luyan Port and buy some land for men to cultivate. The ordinary days of Nvzhi."

   "Are you willing?"

  Chu Nanzhi really couldn't imagine that when that day came, he would be willing to let go of the power in his hands and go back to Anlin Village by himself.

   "I have nothing to give up."

  Lin Jinxiao curled his lips in dissatisfaction: "It's you, lady, when the day comes, don't pull out all the fruit and vegetable seedlings you planted."

  Although he is still very curious about the transformation of his wife's temperament, as long as she can always be by his side, this is very precious, and everything else seems not so important.
