Chapter 652 Birthday Gift

The next few days are recovery time.

Sooner or later, Xuanyuan Yao would go to pay his respects to his father, queen, mother and concubine. After paying his respects, he would return to Feiyingyuan to have a meal with Xie Jin. Because the problem of incense inheritance was solved, both of them had taken off a big stone that was weighing on their hearts. It was undoubtedly easy to get along with each other. many.

Time passed like this day by day, Princess Huainan was soon out of confinement, and then it was the birthday of Prince Huainan, but there was no big fuss in the palace, as usual, there was no lively atmosphere at all.

"My father has never paid much attention to birthdays and the like. In the past, we just had a meal together as a family. In the evening, he would call several uncles and uncles in important positions in the army to come over and have a drink together. It was a lively and lively meal. No, I don’t even accept gifts.”

When Xuanyuan Yao said this, he happened to encounter a congratulatory gift from Xie Jin. Xuanyuan Yao went out to watch it with Xie Jin, and was speechless after watching it.

The whole body is red and the sweat-blooded horse is in excellent condition and extremely valuable.

There is also an ancient sword.

The long brocade box contains the sword. The sword is one foot eight long and one and a half inches wide. The sword body is engraved with black diamond-shaped dark patterns. The front and back of the sword grid are decorated with blue glass and turquoise inlays. The sword hilt is Wrapped with silk thread... eleven extremely fine concentric circles are cast inside.

The brilliance blooms, the grace is clear.

Xuanyuan Yao looked at the sword, and his father's steady voice rang in his ears: "According to legend, this sword is the perfect work of heaven and man, and it is called Chunjun."

Xuanyuan Yao turned to look at him: "Father, do you know this sword?"

"In order to cast this sword, the Red Pansy Mountain broke through for thousands of years to produce tin, and the Ruoye River dried up for thousands of years to produce copper." Xie Jin smiled lightly, "It is recorded in the book that when the sword was forged, Thunder God struck iron, and Yu Niang poured water on it. , the dragon holds the furnace, and the emperor holds the charcoal. The swordsmith Ou Yezi accepted the order of heaven and worked hard with the gods for ten years to complete the sword. "

Xie Jin said, looking at Xuanyuan Yao, "After the sword is completed, the gods will return to heaven."

King Huainan nodded: "It is said that someone exchanged two cities for this sword but failed."

"Who knows about ancient things?" Xie Jin slowly shook his head, "But a sword matches a hero. The prince has been guarding the border for more than twenty years and has done his best for Dongling Sheji. He is actually the pillar of the country and the god of war at the border. This sword It’s most suitable for the prince.”

Xuanyuan Yao glanced at him, then quietly looked at his father, secretly thinking that he was indeed Xie Hu.

A bloody horse and an ancient sword are both extremely valuable and hard-to-get treasures. It can be seen that he has a very serious heart and knows how to give in to what he wants. He has accurately captured the appetite of a military general - Xie Jin is obviously Are you betting that his father will be moved?

Once the father accepts this gift, it is equivalent to recognizing his identity. From now on, their relationship will naturally become a matter of course, which is considered to have the tacit approval of both parents.

Xuanyuan Yao really had to admire his generosity and cunning thinking. However, based on his understanding of his father, he was afraid that his father would not accept this precious gift.

"No reward for no merit." King Huainan's tone was calm, just as Xuanyuan Yao expected, "Thank you for your kindness, sir. I appreciate it. I cannot accept these two gifts."

Xie Jin's expression straightened, and he lowered his eyebrows and said humbly: "Your Majesty, you don't like Chunjun?"

King Huainan said: "I have no reason to accept your gift."

After a pause, he emphasized: "I will not accept any gifts. You can take them back."

"Father." Xuanyuan Yao stood aside and spoke in a low voice, "Xie Jin spent a lot of effort to find it. I hope that my father will fulfill his filial piety."

"Filial piety?" King Huainan frowned and said in a bad tone, "The one he should be filial to is Xie Shoufu. I don't have a son, so I need him to be filial?"

Xie Jin's injuries have not healed, and his face is still a little pale, but he is just holding on: "If the prince does not like these two gifts, I can find someone else for the prince. Can I have a sword manual for the art of war? According to legend, there are still ancient swords that still exist in the world. There are Xuanyuan Sword, Chengying Sword and——"

King Huainan said in an indifferent tone: "Do you want to exchange generous gifts for my son?"

Xie Jin hesitated: "This junior definitely has no such intention, and I don't dare to have such an idea."

"Father." Xuanyuan Yao begged, "Xie Jin also wanted to do it, so my father simply fulfilled his wish."

The King of Huainan said coldly: "As a prince of the royal family, I abide by the laws of the family and the country. I can't do things like accepting bribes and enriching my own pockets. Mr. Xie, you'd better take these two things back to your father."

"My father is a civil servant in the imperial court and does not need to carry a sword all year round." Xie Jin lowered his eyebrows, "And this sword is actually collected by my father. He asked the younger generation to bring it to the prince as a filial piety, and it was regarded as the younger generation's dowry, and he also wanted to express his gratitude to the prince. Don't refuse."

dowry?

These two words made King Huainan stunned, and then he narrowed his eyes and looked at Xie Jin: "Young Master Xie means that you want to be my daughter-in-law?"

Xie Jin nodded: "Yes."

Xuanyuan Yao raised his lips and secretly said that Xie Jin was originally the little daughter-in-law.

King Huainan was silent for a moment.

Xie Jin, the legitimate son of the Xie family, is a famous figure in the imperial capital. He has heard a lot about this person, especially when he and Yao'er went to Shangning to investigate the case this year, and the two of them brought hundreds of members of the entire Yun family together. He also eradicated the family of Su Ce, the Minister of Household Affairs in the Central Government, causing a stir in Shangning... He was a man of great talent and a young talent.

He was highly regarded by Her Majesty the Queen and the Prince Regent in the court. He took up the post of Minister of the Ministry of Justice at a young age. He was also one of the best among the noble sons of the imperial capital. He had a good mind, was smart enough, and had a good appearance. He was aloof and untamable, but he was also one of the best. Able to bend and stretch.

If we put aside the fact that his son was abducted, from a normal person's perspective, Xie Jin is excellent in all aspects, attaches great importance to feelings, and has a tough personality. Although he is a splendid young man, he can endure hardships and is not an embroidered pillow.

Such an outstanding man, whether as a son or a son-in-law, is undoubtedly likable - the premise is that he is a pure son and a pure son-in-law.

Rather than a "fake daughter-in-law" who abducted his own son.
