Marrying Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the Sp

Lin Yiwan comforted her: "It's all good. In light of Yunchang's experience with childbirth, you should let my sister-in-law move around more so that the birth will be smoother!"

Fang Qingshan took it to heart and quickly said goodbye and left.

Hearing that Zhan Yan had brought back gifts, King Li also came to join in the fun and find out.

When he saw that the whole bag was given to Lin Yiwan, he couldn't help but snort coldly: "Wait until he comes back and see if I let him through the gate of the Li Palace!"

Lin Yiwan frowned and said, "Do you think you have the final say?"

Prince Li curled his lips. The suppression from his daughter in front of him really made him, the most ruthless and powerful prince in the Sheng Dynasty, lose all his courage.

He had no choice but to say: "You have the final say!"

Lin Yiwan stopped teasing him and stuffed a jar of old wine into his hand: "How could Zhan Yan not miss you? It's said to be the strongest wine on the border, you must be craving this!"

There was a flash of shock in King Li's eyes. This kid actually knew that he liked to drink this kind of liquor. He really put his heart into it.

He immediately relaxed his expression and said, "He still respects me, his father-in-law. Besides, I've always wanted to drink this kind of wine. The wine in the capital is too soft and mellow, and it's not as strong as this. After taking a sip, my heart feels like it's on fire, and all the strength in my body surges up immediately!"

Lin Yiwan's eyes were slightly sore. Her father was not thinking about the wine, he was thinking about the feeling of guarding the border.

Liquor is their soul, allowing them to always guard the border, the people and the country with enthusiasm.

This heavy sense of responsibility is something that court officials who are raised in wealth and luxury will never understand.

Isn’t it the same for Zhan Yan?

He sacrificed his own family for the sake of everyone else. She was really afraid that when he came back, the children would not recognize him as their father.

Thinking of this, a complicated expression appeared on her little face.

Prince Li understood her best and couldn't help but ask, "Wanwan, do you want to fight Yan? Otherwise, I'll go talk to the emperor and ask him to come back too!"

Lin Yiwan hastily denied it: "How could I miss him? Don't tell the Emperor. Pour a pot of wine for the Emperor too, so he can have a taste of what it's like to guard the border!"

Prince Li couldn't help but worry about Emperor Sheng. It would be strange if he could drink it!

But he couldn't let his daughter down, so he had to give it to Sheng Huang to drink.

He immediately entered the palace and went straight to Emperor Sheng'an's bedroom.

Seeing him coming with a wine jug, Emperor Sheng An was very surprised: "Uncle, what brings you here? Aren't you at home with the child?"

Prince Li said, "I just got a bottle of good wine from Liuli City and I want to give it to you!"

Emperor Sheng'an's eyes lit up. The emperor's uncle sent him wine?

You must drink it!

He quickly said, "Li Delu, bring me a wine glass!"

Li Wang frowned and glared at him: "You're being pretentious! How can you drink wine from a wine glass at the border? Bring a big bowl!"

Li Delu was shocked, but he didn't dare to act rashly in front of King Li.

For the sake of his master, he had no choice but to risk it all.

He knelt on the ground with a plop and said, "Reporting to Prince Li, the emperor has been busy with government affairs recently and has suffered from insomnia. The imperial physician has advised him to drink less alcohol!"

Before Prince Li could say anything, Emperor Sheng An was already furious.

He slammed the table in dissatisfaction: "Li Delu, how dare you! When did it become your turn to act so impudently in front of me? I told you to get the bowl, so you just went. Why are you wasting your words?"

Li Delu was so frightened that he shuddered all over and quickly stood up and ran to get the bowl.

Prince Li looked at Emperor Sheng'an and asked, "What have you been worried about lately? Zhan Yan is guarding Liuli City day and night, and you're still worried?"

Emperor Sheng An quickly shook his head: "No, I am very confident about the border of Liuli City. After I finish drinking, I will discuss the troubles with my uncle in detail!"

Prince Li couldn't help but snort coldly. This kid was bargaining with him.

He is worthy of being the emperor of the current dynasty. He never suffers any loss.

Even though Emperor Sheng An was prepared, when the whole bowl of spicy wine was poured into his mouth, he subconsciously wanted to spit it out.

Prince Li covered his mouth with his hand and said, "Don't spit it out. This is a gift from all the soldiers on the border to the emperor. They can drink it, but why can't you drink even a single bowl?"

Emperor Sheng An forced himself to swallow it, and felt a burning sensation from his mouth to his stomach. The feeling was so intense that it almost blew his head off.

Li Delu handed him some water, and he quickly drank it down with his head tilted back.

After a while, he felt a little better.

But King Pi still asked him, "Is this wine good? Should the person who brought it be rewarded?"

Emperor Sheng An grinned, "It's delicious! Rewards are a must! I'll issue an order immediately. All soldiers stationed on the border will receive an additional fifty taels of silver each this year!"

King Li nodded with satisfaction. This is pretty good!

Zhan Yan is facing many disasters on the border. As his father-in-law, he has to be his strong backing and seek benefits for those border soldiers.

Almost immediately after Emperor Sheng'an issued the decree, Minister of Revenue Li Rulin came into the palace with a pale face to ask for an audience.

He knelt on the ground and said awkwardly, "Your Majesty, there are about 100,000 soldiers stationed on the border of Liuli City. 50 taels of silver per person, that's 5 million taels of silver. Our treasury simply can't afford this extra expenditure!"

Prince Li glanced at him, poured him a bowl of wine himself, and said, "Minister Li, come and drink a bowl of the fine wine bestowed upon you by the Emperor!"

Li Rulin glanced cautiously at Emperor Sheng An and asked tentatively, "Your Majesty, is this really a reward from you?"

Emperor Sheng An had no choice but to nod: "Yes!"

Li Rulin thought that the wine given by the emperor must be delicious, so he had to show his enthusiasm and drink it all!

He took a deep breath and poured all the wine into his mouth.

When the bitterness and spiciness rushed up from his throat, he could no longer control himself and opened his mouth to spit it all out with a "puff".

Fortunately, Li Delu dodged quickly, otherwise he would have been covered in dirt.

Prince Li was the first to speak: "Minister Li, you are so mean! You dare to spit out the wine the emperor gave you. He just drank a big bowl himself. Are you more delicate than the emperor?"

It must be said that this sentence scared Li Rulin to death. He didn't dare to bear the reputation of being more delicate than the emperor.

Otherwise, his official career would be over!

He knelt on the ground trembling with fear and said, "Your Majesty, I didn't mean it. I just can't get used to the taste of this bitter wine!"

Emperor Sheng An spoke cryptically, "You can't handle just one bowl. Do you know that for those soldiers guarding the border, even a sip is a luxury? You find it bitter, but they find it delicious. Li Rulin, do you think giving them an extra fifty taels of silver each is excessive?"

Li Rulin's face turned pale and ugly. He murmured softly, "I naturally think it's not excessive, but the national treasury is indeed short of money. Various expenses have already been allocated, and there is no extra money!"

Emperor Sheng An frowned at him and said, "As the Minister of Revenue, can't you find a way to get this money? You come to me for such a small matter. What use do I have for you?"
