Chapter 350 Meeting Rivals
Although Xiao Yilin looks very humble and easy-going, his identity is there.
The emperor of Jin was eating at the same dining table with them, and the Liu brothers felt a little uncomfortable. They didn't know how to say this title.
He is the emperor, and although he asked them to call him by his name, it is not easy to actually call him by his name.
So there was almost no one talking at the dinner table, there were only the sounds of eating and the sound of An An talking.
After breakfast, everyone sat in the front hall drinking tea and chatting.
When Liu Chongwen saw his two younger brothers winking at him, he cleared his throat and said, "Well, Mr. Xiao, where did you come from? Did you arrive at no time?"
Xiao Yilin said: "Uncle, you don't have to be so polite. Just call me Zirun. I came all the way from the capital of Jin State and just arrived in Meizhou yesterday."
Liu Chongwen nodded, "Then you come here and everything in court has been arranged?"
Xiao Yilin replied: "I have arranged for my ninth brother to supervise the country. If there is anything important, he will send me a message. In the past few years, Xiyan and Beiyan were severely injured by Yiyi and me. They couldn't stand it for a while.
There will be some changes, so it’s still relatively peaceful now.”
At this time, Liu Chongwu took over and said: "A few days ago, the Emperor of Yi State mobilized an army of 200,000 troops from the border to attack Meizhou, but he went back halfway. I heard that it was because the Jin State mobilized more than 300,000 troops to approach the border of Yi State.
Do you really want to send troops to attack Yiguo, or are you trying to attract troops from Yiguo to relieve Meizhou?"
But even if Xiao Yilin is the emperor of Jin, he is not afraid. This is not Jin.
Xiao Yilin felt that when he saw Jing Yi this time, the little girl had changed a lot. In addition to becoming more powerful, she didn't seem to like him that much anymore. This made him feel very depressed.
Lu Tingjie nodded and said to Xiao Yilin: "Master Xiao and I have similar identities. I am also engaged to Yiyi."
But he also knows that he has missed his son's previous growth. If someone else grows up with his son, his son will naturally not be close to him. What he has to do is to spend more time with his son in the future. As time goes by, the child will naturally become close to him.
.
Just as Jing Yi was about to speak, Xiao Yilin overtook her. Xiao Yilin stood up and said, "I am An An's father. I heard that you took good care of Yiyi and his mother and son in the past. Thank you very much for being here."
Jing Yi said: "Ajie, don't buy him things all the time, you will spoil him."
Xiao Yilin glanced at Jing Yi when he heard this, "Yiyi, I will wait for you no matter how long it takes."
Lu Tingjie first paid tribute to Mr. Liu and the brothers of the Liu family. When he arrived at Xiao Yilin's place, he was stunned. He saw that the young man in front of him was very handsome and imposing. At first glance, he was not an ordinary person.
Xiao Yilin quickly said: "No, I don't have a single concubine in my harem now. I will only marry Yiyi in this life, and there will be no other women in the future. Please don't worry, grandpa and uncles."
Everyone was not too surprised when they heard that Lu Tingjie was here, because Lu Tingjie is a frequent visitor here in Jingyi and everyone is familiar with it.
Lu Tingjie hugged An An and said, "It's just some gadgets, but they're not worth much."
At this time, Mr. Liu spoke, "Then what are your plans?"
Lu Tingjie took the box from the attendant's hand and said, "Look, there are many small clay animals here, all for you."
When Lu Tingjie saw that he was actually sitting next to Jing Yi, his heart sank and he said, "Who is this?"
An An was so happy looking at the various clay sculptures of small animals, "Thank you, Uncle Lu."
Hearing this, Xiao Yilin glanced at Jing Yi and said, "I have no intention of provoking a war, but of course I won't stand idly by if the Emperor of Yi wants to attack Yiyi. Yiyi's business is my business, and I will help Yiyi if she wants revenge."
Xiao Yilin said he would wait for me. If he changes his mind midway and doesn't want to wait, I won't complain. This is also his freedom."
Then Lu Tingjie turned around and took the pastry box from the attendant, "Aunt Liu, these are the pea yellow that grandpa likes to eat and the almond cake that you like to eat."
But Mr. Liu and the three brothers of the Liu family said nothing, just watching and waiting to watch the show.
But when Xiao Yilin saw this scene, his heart was filled with knots. His son was not close to him but was close to an outsider.
An An's eyes lit up when she saw the colorful puppy, and she ran directly from Jing Yi to Lu Tingjie, "Little puppy."
Then Lu Tingjie took out a painted clay sculpture of a puppy from the box in the entourage's hand and waved to An An, "An An, do you see what Uncle Lu brought you?"
Jing Yi said: "Grandpa, I won't go back to the Jin Kingdom with Xiao Yilin for the time being. I swore to avenge the Jing family and use the head of the Emperor of Yi Kingdom to pay tribute to the wronged souls of the Jing family. I won't consider it until I fulfill this oath.
About getting married.
Then An An leaned next to Lu Tingjie and started playing.
When Lu Tingjie said this, Jing Yi became even more embarrassed, while Xiao Yilin's face darkened.
Previously, Xiao Yilin also learned from Gu Yu about some people who often appeared around Jing Yi, and Lu Tingjie was the main person he paid attention to.
Of course Xiao Yilin wanted Jingyi to go back to Jin with him, but now it seems that it may not be possible for a while, "It depends on Yiyi's wishes, I will follow her wishes."
Liu Chongyi said: "Master Xiao, you are the emperor of Jin now. You must have many concubines in your harem, right?"
While everyone was talking, a servant came to report that Lord Lutingjielu had arrived.
Lu Tingjie had known something about Xiao Yilin before, but now that he had announced his relationship with Jing Yi during the meeting, he was very unhappy. He also felt Xiao Yilin's hostility towards him.
Lu Tingjie often plays with An An, and this scene is already common in the Jing family.
Mrs. Liu was also a little embarrassed at this time. She quickly took the pastry box and said, "I've cost you money again. Just come back later and don't buy anything."
After saying this, Jingyi felt a little embarrassed because Lu Tingjie was also engaged to the original owner. To put it bluntly, he was her ex-fiancé.
Lu Tingjie walked in front, and the entourage behind him took two boxes of cakes and toys bought for An An, and the two of them went directly into the front hall.
Jing Yi rolled her eyes secretly when she saw Xiao Yilin so eager to declare her sovereignty, "Ajie, this is Xiao Yilin, my fiancé to whom I was engaged when we were in the Jin Kingdom."
After all, Jingyi and Lu Tingjie were engaged before the incident in the Jing family, and Jingyi almost married Lu Tingjie. So he thought Lu Tingjie was a strong rival. It seems that this is indeed the case now.
Lu Tingjie and Jing Yi's family were very familiar with each other, and they seemed to get along very well, which was undoubtedly very detrimental to him. He had to be careful about this Lu Tingjie.
After playing with An An for a while, Lu Tingjie said, "Yiyi, I have some political matters that I want to discuss with you."
When he heard that he had something serious to say, Jing Yi stood up and said, "Then let's go to the study to talk."
