My whole family has crossed with Goldfinger

Chapter 627 Chapter 626: The desired reward

Queen Li was sitting on the main seat in the palace. She couldn't help but smile knowingly when she saw the second princess and Xu Yinyin walking hand in hand into the palace as close as sisters.

Fate is really a strange thing. Although her Jiao'er has no biological sisters, she does have a lot of cousins ​​from her maternal grandfather's family. However, those who are related by blood are really not as good as the later Jiacheng.

However, Empress Li is also happy to see her daughter have a close relationship with Jiacheng. Jiacheng is a good child and she has nothing to worry about when they go back and forth.

"Jia Cheng pays his respects to the Queen and wishes her happiness, longevity and health."

Empress Li nodded, with a smile on her face, and asked Fu Xiang to show Princess Jiacheng her seat.

Xu Yinyin sat on the chair together with the second princess, and the palace maid also served refreshments.

Queen Li looked at Xu Yinyin and said, "How is Jiacheng doing? This is the first time we have met since you got married, and I haven't said congratulations to you yet."

Xu Yinyin responded hurriedly: "Mother Meng cares about me. Jiacheng has always been good. It's time to thank your mother."

When she got married, even though she was not in the capital, the empress was given a generous gift to add to her beauty. There were only a few people in the capital who were so honored.

"Those congratulatory gifts are all deserved. Jiacheng has made great contributions to the country and the people. I and the emperor value you, and you deserve it."

Empress Li said: "Speaking of the jade wheat this time, Jiacheng has done a great job for you. Your Majesty, Long Yan, was very happy. He wanted to reward you well early in the morning. But you were not in the capital at that time. I am busy with the Mid-Autumn Festival these days." I have no time to do anything, and I finally made time today to announce that you came to the palace just for the reward of jade and wheat."

"Speaking of it, whether it's gold, silver, jewelry or silk and tribute cloth, the reward is too much. There is nothing new. This time, the emperor wants to hear what you have to say, but what do you want?"

All the way from the village king to the princess, from titles to fiefs, to this point, no matter how much reward you get, you can't get any higher, but the gold, silver and jewelry are not enough to offset such a great achievement.

Therefore, the emperor discussed with Empress Li and simply announced that Jiacheng would come to the palace to hear what she wanted. Satisfying her ideas was more motivating than bounty of gold, silver and jewels.

Xu Yinyin was stunned when she heard this. It turned out that the queen summoned her to the palace today to reward the jade and wheat.

Speaking of which, she is now a princess with a fiefdom. It is true that no matter how great her achievements are, she cannot be granted a higher title. She cannot be made a princess. If it is so inconsistent with the regulations, all the ministers will rise up to oppose it.

The emperor was not willing to just reward her with gold, silver and jewels, so he specifically wanted to ask her opinion——

Xu Yinyin couldn't help but feel moved in her heart. She knew early on that this golden thigh was worth it.

Although she has the intention to do something more, she also knows that, as her father said, any more may really arouse suspicion. Instead, she can listen to her father's idea and think of a way when the time comes. If she wants to donate something again, , just lead Master Cheng to discover it.

Xu Yinyin's mind calmed down, and she had many thoughts in an instant.

But it only happened for a moment. Seeing that Empress Li was still looking at her and waiting to hear her answer, Xu Yinyin was moved in her heart, and then said: "Being able to benefit the people of Yan and share the worries of the emperor and the empress, Jiacheng is a county." It is my duty to be the people of Dayan, and Jiacheng does not dare to be greedy for credit. Jiacheng is really flattered that the emperor and the empress value Jiacheng so much."

Seeing her sincerity, Empress Li couldn't help but nodded secretly, and then smiled and said: "You should be rewarded for your great achievements. You can't refuse it. If you have anything you want, just say it, whether it's the emperor or me." The palace will satisfy you."

Xu Yinyin didn't doubt this. After all, the emperor had waved his hand and picked the shop in front of her. No matter what she wanted, could it be more expensive than this shop, which cost a lot of money?

Furthermore, the emperor also knew that she would not be someone who would cause problems if she opened her mouth.

Xu Yinyin pursed her lips and smiled, and replied: "Jia Cheng does not dare to be greedy for credit, but the emperor and the empress love me so much that Jiacheng can hardly refuse. If I think about it carefully, I really want to ask the empress for help."

When Empress Li heard this, she immediately raised her eyebrows and said, "What's difficult about Jiacheng? Just tell me." Xu Yinyin said, "It's about the fact that women in the boudoir must wear curtains when going out."

-

In the evening, the emperor arrived at Shoukang Palace after a busy day of political affairs. The empress and his wife greeted him at the entrance of the palace. After serving the emperor, he washed his hands and wiped his face, and then the palace people filed in and served dinner.

When the emperor and empress ate together, according to the rules, there should be a long table full of delicacies. However, there were only about twenty dishes on the table in this room. For people outside the palace, this was considered a rich meal. , but as the emperor's meal, it is too simple.

However, the emperor has never been a person who is extravagant and wasteful, even if he sits in this position, he is still like this. Empress Li and his young couple are naturally a husband and wife, and they are not extravagant and wasteful.

After eating and sleeping without saying a word, the emperor and empress finished their dinner quietly, rinsed their mouths and moved to the inner hall to drink tea.

The emperor then asked about Jiacheng's entry into the palace today, "How's it going? Did Jiacheng say what she wanted? Can you reward me?"

Empress Li thought of what Jiacheng said today and couldn't help but snap out of her thoughts. Seeing that the emperor was still waiting for a reply, she shook her head and said, "I cannot fulfill Jiacheng's request."

"Oh?" When the emperor heard this, he became interested, "Is it something that even the queen can't do? Could it be that Jiacheng wants a gold medal for immunity from death or an iron coupon for the alchemy book?"

Queen Li shook her head, "No, what Jiacheng wants is not for herself, she is for the women in the world."

Hearing this, the emperor became more interested. For the sake of women in the world?Such a righteous thing, think about it, this is what this kid Jiacheng can do.

"What is it? Queen, please don't talk to me anymore. Tell me quickly."

Empress Li said: "It's about the issue of women in the boudoir wearing curtains when going out. Jiacheng wants to ask my concubine to come forward and ask the emperor to abolish this matter of women in the boudoir having to wear curtains when going out -"

With that said, he repeated to the emperor what Jiacheng said today.

The emperor was startled when he heard this. He really didn't expect that this was what Jiacheng wanted.

Women in the boudoir must wear curtains when going out. This has been a rule since ancient times. Before the previous dynasty, it was even more stringent. Women were almost not allowed to go out on the streets.

Things have gotten a lot better from the previous dynasty to this dynasty. At least, it is not difficult for women in the boudoir to go out for a walk as long as they wear curtains.

The emperor was once a patron king and had a fiefdom in Anzhou. It was a place with open folk customs. The protection of men and women was not as harsh as outside. It was also common for women to show up in public to do business.

The emperor, who grew up in such a place with open folk customs, was naturally not a closed-minded person. Since he came to power, he had promulgated the law that widows could remarry and encouraged widows to remarry.

In his opinion, it is not necessary for women in the boudoir to wear curtains when going out. It is different from the previous dynasty. Since women in the boudoir are allowed to go out, what difference does it make if they wear curtains or not?
As Jiacheng said, sometimes the curtain can be a burden. In this case, it would be more thorough to simply not allow the woman to go out.

Therefore, at least he would not object to Jiacheng's proposal.

But there is no need to imagine that the veterans in the court will definitely jump out and vigorously oppose it.

The emperor pondered for a moment, then slowly exhaled a breath, "This matter needs to be discussed in the long term, and we can't be careless. You can ask someone to talk to Jiacheng later, and let her change the reward first."
