The wife is the king of the palace

Jin Qi got angry suddenly, and everyone thought it was because of the overstepping words of the head of the mission, and everyone was ready to accept Jin Qi's anger, but what everyone was waiting for was not because Jin Qi was offended. The resulting killing intent.

After hearing Jin Qi's words, many people who were still trembling raised their heads and looked at him in surprise. So Jin Qi was angry?

All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the hall became a little weird, and even the people on the side of the mission forgot to be afraid.

"Ahem." Lin Xu coughed lightly, breaking the silence.

Everyone came back to their senses, they all staggered their eyes and knelt down according to the rules. The members of the mission also came back to their senses at this moment, they all looked at the leader in charge with cold hands and feet and backs.

What he said just now was indeed too presumptuous. As a mission of a country, they should not say such words. If Jin Qi really got angry and launched an attack on their Qi State, it would not be impossible. The current national conditions of Qi State cannot bear Dayu attack.

"I was rude. I didn't intend to offend you, the emperor. I just feel that the prime minister is resourceful. Please don't take offense..." The head of the mission also realized the seriousness of the matter at this moment. He was full of anger just now. cold sweat.

He didn't come here to declare war. The refugee incident is a fact. However, there are great differences in this incident in Qi State. Before this incident, not many people in the court knew about it. They don't know.

Sending them here now is also because they have to.

After calming down, the members of the mission held their breath, waiting for Jin Qi's answer.

"Misunderstanding?" Jin Qi's tone was so cold that people couldn't figure out what he meant.

"We have absolutely no intention of disturbing the Prime Minister's mind, but we have heard about the name for a long time and admire it." As soon as the head of the mission said this, someone immediately nodded in response.

I have heard about Lin Xu's famous name for a long time, but it is true to avoid nonsense. Dayu has [-] prime ministers who entered the court and [-] prime ministers. This matter is well-known in several nearby countries.

"I also ask the emperor to forgive me." All the members of the mission clasped their fists and bowed to show respect.

They are not in a vassal relationship with Dayu, and they do not need to bow down according to etiquette.After all, they came here on behalf of Qi State, and it is natural to show respect to Jin Qi, but if they bow their heads and profess their ministers, Qi State will lose face.

"Did Qi Guo really think that I, Dayu, is easy to bully?" Jin Qi supported his chin with one hand, and looked at the group of people in front of him coldly.

First he secretly sent troops to invade, and now he openly provoked him in court. It seems that Qi Guo really thought that Dayu was weak and easy to bully.

"That's not the case, we just offended..." The person in charge of the mission headed pale, turned his head slightly to glance at the people behind him, gritted his teeth, and knelt down, "Please forgive me for being rude, Your Majesty. If the emperor really wants to pursue it, I am willing to bear it alone."

The person in charge of the mission kneeled in the hall as well, and the waists of all the officials who had not been allowed to stand up straightened a lot.

Even if Qi State now annexes neighboring countries, its territory is far less spacious than Dayu, and the gap in military strength is also there. Even if they are given another five years to prepare, they may not be able to compete with them.

"Misfortune comes out of your mouth. If I hear such words again, if I know that you have plans..." Jin Qi only spoke half of his words, and only gave the missionary a cold look before getting up and leaving.

Jin Qi left, and the chief eunuch hurried out to announce his retirement.

Seeing this, the members of the mission felt uneasy, and they no longer had the arrogance they had when they entered the palace, while the others in the court were relieved. If Jin Qi really got angry, Qi Guo would be the only one who would be unlucky.

When the imperial court retreated in the early morning, all the officials walked towards the outside of the hall one after another. Xu Lan led the missionary to leave first, and Lin Xu stopped Wanyu, Jianjun, Wanyu, and Su Fanyi after they left.

Although it was very unpleasant because of the arrogant words of the head of the mission just now, Lin Xu has not forgotten his 30 silver.

Now the post station is waiting to be repaired, because Dayu is a vast country with many provinces and counties. If you want to complete the post station according to the plan, it will cost at least a few million taels. This is not a small amount, and it can save a lot of money.

Naturally, we should save.

"Do you remember?" Lin Xu looked at the supervisor.

"Yes, I remember it, it's just..." The supervisor had a weird expression on his face. Lin Xu just stopped them not because of anything else, but because they planned to ask those people for money.

It's just that although he appreciates Lin Xu's idea, he feels a little dumbfounded if he really wants to do it.

"Just do as I say." Lin Xu clasped his arms around his chest, with ease.

"I see." The supervisor nodded, turned and went out.

The supervisor left, but Wan Yu, who was left behind, looked at Lin Xu with twitching corners of his mouth, "Master Prime Minister, do you really want this 30 from Qi Kingdom?"

30 taels may not be a lot for a country's treasury, but it is not a small sum either.

Although Su Fanyi, who was also left behind, was very unwilling, but at this moment, like Wan Yu, he had the same idea.

"They're not trying to befriend each other, I'm just giving them a chance." Lin Xu glanced at Su Fanyi, "How is the road map I asked you to organize?"

Lin Xu has roughly chosen the route, but the specific location and situation need to be explored by Su Fanyi, who is the Ministry of Industry. Naturally, Wanyu also needs to cooperate with preparations and estimate the cost in advance.

"The general situation on the route has been sorted out, and the remaining needs to be confirmed by the household department." Su Fanyi didn't even want to mention Wan Yu's name, which would make him dirty.

Wan Yu was even more straightforward, simply ignoring Su Fanyi, treating him as if he didn't exist.

"This matter should be determined as soon as possible, and work will start after the money is delivered." Lin Xu said.

The two nodded in agreement, bid farewell to Lin Xu and left one after another.

The hall was empty at the moment, and Lin Xu left the hall as soon as he saw the two of them leaving, but just as he went out, the chief eunuch who had already been waiting at the side greeted him, "My lord, the emperor welcomes you."

In the imperial garden, when Lin Xu followed the chief eunuch to the pavilion, Jin Qi was already sitting in the pavilion and drinking a large pot of tea.

"What is the emperor's order?" Lin Xu entered the pavilion.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, is really famous and attracts attention." Jin Qi looked at Lin Xu sourly.

Lin Xu is really powerful. There are many students who admire and worship him, and there are also newcomers who are in the same dynasty to curry favor with him. Now even the neighboring countries are worried about him.

"What exactly does the emperor want to say?" Lin Xu walked to the side and sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and began to drink slowly.

The tea used in the palace is excellent Longjing, even Lin Xu, who is not proficient in this way, can drink it, but it would be a waste for Jin Qi to drink these teas at the moment, because he is drinking it completely.

"What do you think, Prime Minister?" Jin Qi asked, his tone still sour.

"How about what?" Lin Xu didn't change his face.

"Naturally, it is to seek better development." Jin Qi himself felt sore when he heard these words, but he couldn't help but speak.

Seeing Jin Qi's appearance, Lin Xu twitched the corners of his mouth, feeling that the tea in the cup had become a little sour.

After Lin Xu finished drinking, he poured himself another glass. Jin Qi waited for Lin Xu's answer for a long time, and became more and more nervous.Although he was drinking tea, his eyes were fixed on Lin Xu's face, trying to see something from his face.

Lin Xu wouldn't be serious about finding another job, would he?

Jin Qi was nervous, but Lin Xu drank the tea in the cup slowly, and then said: "I won't leave."

"Really!" Hearing this, Jin Qi immediately sat up straight.

He looked at Lin Xu nervously, his face turned a little flushed because of excitement, and his eyes blinked non-stop.

Jin Qi really wanted to hear Lin Xu say something, wanted to hear his assurance, he was full of expectations but awkward to speak, so he could only watch eagerly.

"I don't know where to go." Lin Xu sighed silently, a little confused why Jin Qi, who usually looks quite smart, likes to go into a corner sometimes.

Now that he is the prime minister, he is already a high-ranking official with a man under one person and over ten thousand people, and he is looking for another "higher" job. What else can he seek if he really goes to Qi State?

Is it possible that the king of the Qi Kingdom should abdicate and let him be worthy of him?This is a good idea. In this way, he will not have to worry about calculating the 30 yuan, and he can directly move all the treasury of the Qi Kingdom back, and there should be no need to delay the construction of the post station.

Jin Qi didn't know what was going on in Lin Xu's mind, but upon seeing Lin Xu's assurance, a smile immediately bloomed on Jin Qi's face, shining brightly past the mid-summer sunshine in the courtyard near noon.

Lin Xu was even more puzzled by his appearance, not understanding why Jin Qi liked to play tricks so much.

"It's fine if you don't leave, I just said that there is no better place in this world than Dayu..." In order to hide his embarrassment, Jin Qi took the kettle on the table and filled himself with another glass, but he didn't realize it until the glass was near his mouth. My stomach is full of water.

Seeing the satisfied smile on Jin Qi's face, Lin Xu suddenly understood why Jin Qi was like this. As a prince, Jin Qi hardly enjoyed the love of any parents, and even his parents were the ones who let him spend his whole life. The culprit who fell into chaos and darkness.

Betrayed by his mother, disliked by his father, and persecuted by the people around him, Jin Qi is unexpectedly a very insecure person. For him, the promise he will leave may be far greater than the performance of his behavior.

Lin Xu smacked his lips, slightly dissatisfied with Jin Qi's stupidity, he put down his cup, and looked back at the silly, silly person smiling beside him, "I won't go anywhere, I will stay here forever."

"Hey, that's good..." Jin Qi didn't expect Lin Xu to say it again, and the smile on his face became more and more uncontrollable, and his appearance became more and more silly, without the brilliance and martial arts that the emperor should have.

"I will always stay by the emperor's side." Lin Xu's expression did not change and his heart beat, he still had the familiar desolate and indifferent appearance.

The smirking Jin Qi heard that the smile on his face froze. He slowly widened his eyes and parted his lips slightly, looking at Lin Xu in shock.

After Lin Xu finished speaking, he didn't mean to say anything more. He poured himself another cup of tea, which he liked a little.

"Yeah." Jin Qi looked at Lin Xu in shock for a moment before he came back to his senses, and then grinned foolishly again.
