The waste prince is so fierce

Xu Yingnan felt that Li Quan was trying to please her on purpose. To put it bluntly, he wanted to use this opportunity to establish a marriage contract with her...

Li Quan was not in a hurry either.

"Father, you always say that General Xu sacrificed his life for the country and that you should consider him as a brother. So what if I call General Xu Guofan uncle?"

Kangdi was speechless and his face looked gloomy and ugly.

It is a great honor for a minister to sacrifice his life for his country. It is certainly inappropriate to call him uncle.

The princes seemed to be watching the fun...

Li Quan was not in a hurry and just waited for Emperor Kang to lose his temper.

But Emperor Kang thought about it and felt that what Li Quan said seemed to make sense. It was also a kind of honor to set an example for the deceased ministers in front of everyone.

In addition, today is a memorial service specially held so that people can see that we are missing you.

Xu Yingnan was too embarrassed to say anything more. The anger on Kangdi's face had gradually turned into calmness.

"You really have a lot of heart."

"If that's the case, why didn't you do more?"

Li Quan was in no hurry to explain. After being lectured by Emperor Kang, he knelt back down.

Li Qian was the most proud.

"Father is teaching Old Nine a lesson. You must remember that some things cannot be solved by just talking."

"It is also because I, the eldest brother, did not teach him well. Please punish me, father."

Xu Yingnan looked helpless, why were there so many people interrupting to steal the show?

Is it necessary to argue about these things at this time?

Li Quan knelt obediently. Xu Huaiji was so tired that he leaned against Li Quan.

"Old Nine, it's your turn to burn incense, what else are you doing?"

Emperor Kang was a little angry. Li Quan looked at Emperor Kang and pointed at Xu Huaiji beside him.

"Fell asleep."

It is impossible for an emperor to be angry with a little kid.

Kangdi's face was gloomy and he asked Xu Yingnan to burn incense on his behalf.

"We are a family sooner or later. It won't be a problem if I light a stick of incense instead of you."

Xu Yingnan was reluctant, but still raised the incense and burned it.

Emperor Kang personally wrote an obituary and prepared to have Wang Bo, the Minister of the Imperial Guard, read it out.

Wang Bo came in from outside and knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, the people are releasing lanterns along the river, and many merchants have taken the initiative to replace the white silk, all in memory of the general."

Emperor Kang's face changed. This was what he feared the most. If the people took the initiative to do it, how would the imperial power face it?

In other words, if the common people only see Xu Guofan but not Emperor Kang, wouldn't that be even more embarrassing?

Noticing something was wrong with the emperor's face, Sheng He quickly stepped forward.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the Ninth Prince used his own private property to purchase the items for the memorial service."

"And they are being distributed on the streets. Anyone who wants to commemorate the great general can take one, to express their condolences to the hero."

Emperor Kang finally breathed a sigh of relief, saving the face of the royal family and giving comfort to the Xu family.

Li Quan finally did a good thing, and Emperor Kang turned around and looked at Li Quan.

So this guy was a bit absurd, but he didn't let down at the critical moment. Kangdi felt much more comfortable.

Xu Yingnan did not expect that Li Quan would actually use his private property to buy memorial items for his father.

Recalling when her father was alive, he always said that Li Quan was a little waste. Now this little waste also knows how to miss the hero. Xu Yingnan's eyes were red, and she told herself not to cry out loud.

Kandi sighed.

"No matter where you are, you must never forget General Xu's contribution."

"According to my imperial decree, Xu Guofan is entitled to be enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple."

"Xu Yingnan, the daughter of Xu Guofan, thanks the emperor."

Emperor Kang wiped his tears, and a group of princes followed him, preparing to go to the outer hall to keep vigil.

The food was small cakes specially made by the Imperial Tea Kitchen, and each person also had a bowl of white porridge.

Kangdi felt strangely uncomfortable.

"Old Nine, come here."

Li Quan asked Xu Huaiji to eat by himself and walked away.

The princes all lowered their heads, the ministers stood far away, and Emperor Kang lowered his voice.

"You did a good job today, but don't be too loud. General Xu died fighting for the country, leaving me without someone to rely on!"

The implication is that Li Quan should be more careful in his response and must take Xu Yingnan's feelings into consideration.

Li Quan lowered his voice.

"Why didn't the emperor hold a celebration party for Xu Yingnan?"

Kangdi looked confused. How come this brat cared about Xu Yingnan?

I thought this naughty boy only got wise occasionally, but I didn't expect that he really got wise now.

"Your son asks for permission, Father."

"Xu Yingnan, the eldest daughter of the Xu family, has made great contributions in defending the country and guarding the border. Please pass on the order to promote Xu Yingnan to a higher position and hold a celebration meeting."

"Let General Xu rest in peace."

Emperor Kang gritted his teeth, he never expected Li Quan would dare to outwit him.

The money used was originally the emperor's own private money, and it would be unacceptable to spend money from the national treasury to hold a celebration banquet.

After all, it is all for the living to see clearly that the court has not forgotten the contributions of the Xu family.

But in this case, I won’t be able to refuse.

Kangdi tried his best not to care.

"Sheng He, pass on my order."

Sheng He quickly did as he was told and immediately passed down the order to prepare to hold a celebration banquet the next day. After all, Xu Yingnan killed the vanguard army of Beirong in one breath.

It would be unreasonable if we didn't hold a banquet...

When night fell, Li Quan and Xu Yingnan switched positions and sandwiched Xu Huaiji in the middle.

The wind blows very hard at night and it is very easy to catch a cold.

Xu Yingnan must be missing her father. It is really hard for a weak woman to support herself for such a long time.

Tears slid down to the tip of Xu Yingnan's nose, and he just rubbed them on his clothes.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything from now on."

Li Quan's voice was not loud, but Xu Huaiji heard it and looked at Li Quan with his round eyes.

"Sister, did you hear that?"

Xu Yingnan didn't say anything either.

This night was so torturous that Li Quan's legs were numb from kneeling, but the other princes were kneeling fine, which made Li Quan feel a little strange.

Is it possible to cheat by kneeling?

The eldest prince, in particular, not only did he not move, he seemed to be particularly comfortable kneeling.

Li Quan was somewhat curious, but he could only observe from different angles and found that the eldest prince was indeed insidious.

He actually tied a kneeling stool to his left leg in advance. To put it bluntly, this stool supported the weight.

Li Quan didn't want to spoil Emperor Kang's mood, so he pretended not to see it.

It was not until one hour before the morning court session that Emperor Kang allowed everyone to return.

The court officials and the princes were all in unbearable pain. Li Quan was supported by two palace maids for a long time before he stood up.

Xu Yingnan was helped up four times before she could get up...

At least I managed to get through the night.

The princes who did not attend the court were sent back to their homes. Li Quan went back and quickly ate something to prepare for the evening banquet.

It seems that tonight is destined to be extraordinary. Li Quan feels that Kangdi may have other intentions.

"It doesn't matter. If she doesn't want to marry, why force her?"

Li Quan thinks that everything depends on fate, and he really doesn't want to...
