The power of Canli was settled, and Qiongzhou returned to peace and prosperity. Xiao Jin returned triumphantly and ordered his army to camp thirty miles outside the capital to stand by. He ordered people to escort Mei'er back to the Jin Palace, and then took several generals to the palace to report their duties.

As soon as Xiao Jin entered the palace gate, he saw his aunt and Chaogui waiting in the corner gate. The former Concubine Jing is now the queen in the central palace. To distinguish her from Xiao Jin's deceased mother, she is called Queen Chen.

Xiao Jin dismounted and saluted his aunt. The queen helped Xiao Jin up with tears in her eyes, "Thank you for your hard work!"

Seeing that my aunt who had always been so happy today, Xiao Jin smiled and said, "I have been used to fighting in the south and north over the years, but my aunt is sensational today."

Xiao Chen wiped his tears and beat Xiao Jin and said, "Can it be the same this time?"

Xiao Jin knew what she said and comforted him: "Auntie, don't be sad. What should be brought back, and A Jin will gradually get back."

Queen Chen patted Xiao Jin, "I am worthy of being a descendant of our Chen family, and I am a promising one."

Xiao Jin: "..."

Chaogui could no longer listen and robbed Bai and said, "What did the mother say? The emperor's surname is Xiao and not Chen."

"Is the only blood of the Xiao family flowing on his body? Are you not the blood of our Chen family?"

Chaogui stuck out his tongue and didn't dare to talk back again, and asked Xiao Jin: "Is the emperor here to report his duties to his father?"

Xiao Jin nodded and said to Gui with his eyebrows drooping, "I'm afraid my father won't be able to see you now."

“Why?”

"The Concubine Li is sick. My father is in Concubine Li's palace now. I went to pay his respects to him just now, but she didn't even see him."

Queen Chen laughed, "Can she not be sick? The queen is gone, and now the only remaining force in her mother's family has been destroyed. She probably has the will to die now." As she said that, she looked at Xiao Jin and said:

"I see, you go directly to her bedroom and tell your emperor in front of the witch, how he caught all the ruins in one go, and let it go to anger her to death."

While speaking, several people arrived outside the Xuanshi Hall. Xiao Jin entered the Xuanshi Hall and ordered the eunuch to invite Emperor Yongxi. After a while, the eunuch came back and replied to Xiao Jin: "The emperor is uncomfortable now, let Your Highness King Jin go back first. The emperor said he will announce you again the next day."

When Xiao Jin heard that the emperor did not see him, he was neither anxious nor angry. He didn't even say anything about Emperor Yongxi's concern for him on the scene, and turned around and left the Xuanshi Hall.

He had long given up on the emperor, and Concubine Li was the most important thing in his heart. Over the years, he had not liked Emperor Yongxi like Xiao Mu, because he knew that no matter how hard he tried, he could not please him, because his heart was no longer with him.

Even if he doesn't like him, no one can stop what he wants.

Xiao Jin returned to the Jin Palace. As soon as he got off his horse, Su Wan came up to meet him. Seeing Xiao Jin kneeling in front of him with a "thump", she said in tears: "The prince has been there for more than two months, and I miss the prince so hard."

Now Xiao Jin doesn't even want to see her, let alone dealing with her perfunctorily. He replied with a cold face, "I have something to do." He brushed past her and headed straight towards the King of Jin Palace.

The boat was exhausted, and Mei'er had just come out of the shower, sitting in front of the dressing table, dressing up in front of the mirror, taking off her loose floral nightgown on the ground, and her black hair fell down like a waterfall. Xiao Jin stood outside the door, looking at it in a daze.

"What are you stupid?" Mei'er put down the sheep's horn comb and said angrily to Xiao Jin through the bronze mirror.

Xiao Jin walked over with a smile and leaned over her temples, "My wife is so beautiful."

"Good mouth and smooth tongue." Mei'er picked up the comb and combed her half-dry hair.

Xiao Jin picked her up in the waist. After a moment of dizziness, Mei'er was already placed on the big bed by him, "It's broad daylight, don't do this."

Xiao Jin ignored it, took off his jade belt, took off his python robe in a few seconds, and looked at the little man who looked like a lotus in the quilt, and was about to enter in a hurry, but suddenly he heard the maid preaching outside: "You are the princess, ask for a visit to Princess Gui."

Xiao Jin was in high spirits and replied in annoyance: "Go and tell her that the princess is busy."

Mei'er heard that it was Chaogui, so she pushed Xiao Jin away, "What are you busy with? Is there anyone who sent someone like this?"

Mei'er put on her clothes, left the inner room, and said to the maid: "Go and invite the princess in."

After a while, Chaogui entered and saw Mei'er, he said happily, "You are not here for me to die."

While speaking, Xiao Jin came out of the inner room and looked at Chaogui with a stern face, saying, "Aren't you in the palace? Why did you come here again after a while?"

Chaogui didn't answer his words and said in surprise: "Didn't you go to report your duties to your father? Why did you come back so soon?"

Xiao Jin waved his hand, "Father is busy."

Chaogui understood and snorted coldly, "It turns out that I was fascinated by that witch. When you return to the court, your father didn't even see him."

"What do you kid do with this?"

Chaogui said unconvincedly: "Don't treat me as a child anymore. I will tell you that the father's health is getting worse now, and the reserve position is empty. Concubine Li's mother and son are blowing in front of the father all day long. You have to worry about it."

Xiao Jin was unwilling to let his wife and sister worry about these intrigues, and he didn't say anything. He ordered the eunuch in the palace: "I am hungry, please pass the dinner in advance." As he said that, he said to Chaogui: "Do you want to stay and use it together?"

"I just came here, so let's use it together."

After a while, the maids entered one after another, and set up a table of delicacies. The three of them sat together. Chaogui was used to being unruly, but he still told Mei'er endlessly at the dinner table, "I will go to Huguo Temple to burn incense tomorrow, so you can accompany me."

Before Mei'er could speak, Xiao Jin rushed to say, "Your sister-in-law just came back and needs rest. How can you have the strength to burn incense with you?"

"Oh, in a few days, the wife of Duke of Lu will hold a polo competition, but it's so lively. You can go with me."

Xiao Jin felt sorry for Mei'er that he had not eaten well after going out with him, so he kept picking up food for her. After a while, Mei'er's bowl was filled with chicken, duck, fish and meat. Mei'er chewed the chicken legs and said vaguely: "I have no friendship with the Duke of Lu, and she has not invited me, so I'm not going to participate."

Chaogui smiled and advised, "Now my emperor's brother is in the limelight in the court. Who wouldn't be rushing to curry favor with you? I have a good relationship with the Duke of Lu. When she invited me that day, she said, "It would be great if I could bring you there."

"Okay." Mei'er raised her oily little hand to Xiao Jin. Xiao Jin picked up the towel and handkerchief on the table and wiped it clean bit by bit.

Chaogui looked at Xiao Jin and said sadly: "Achu is right, my prince is so proud of you, it's really like a different person."

Xiao Jin put down the towel, handed Mei'er a piece of crispy meat neatly, and said with a calm face: "Don't listen to A Chu's nonsense all day long."

Chaogui held back his laughter, "I still have to listen to him. You are now a complete 'wife slave'."
