Other than Qianlong, the only one who could be considered leisurely was He, who was standing below?

Left.

His hands fell to his sides,

His expression was neither servile nor overbearing.

"He?"

"I'm here."

Qianlong raised his head and stared at him,

Suddenly throwing the memorial in his hand heavily on the table. Just as the palace servants were worried that the emperor was about to get angry,

Qianlong suddenly stood up and burst into laughter.

He laughed to his heart's content.

"Good,

Good!

This memorial is well written! "Qianlong was not stingy with his praise.

And?

Bowed slightly. "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"My beloved minister is indeed worthy of the position of Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Revenue!" Qianlong praised again.

And?

He still said humbly, "I don't dare to claim credit,

But in front of the Emperor, I was influenced by him,

That's why I had these insignificant thoughts. "

Qianlong enjoyed it very much, and his face was naturally even happier. "What reward do you want, my beloved minister?"

And?

His smile was really outstanding. "If I can be loyal to the Emperor in this matter, then it will be the Emperor's great kindness."

Qianlong was a person who liked bold and dared to perform.

But he didn't like officials who stretched out their hands to ask for credit and were arrogant.

The propriety was extremely difficult for others to grasp.

But for?

For,

It was extremely easy to guess.

And?

In front of Qianlong,

On the one hand, he didn't hide his talent,

He just waved the flag of serving Qianlong, and on the other hand, he was just right to be modest,

The more he pushed the credit to Qianlong's head,

The more Qianlong wanted to reward him.

Sure enough — —

"What nonsense are you talking about?

It's your reward!

How can you not want it? "Qianlong looked at him with a smile." As expected, you're still young,

You don't know how to plan for yourself at all!

If it were anyone else, they would have asked me for grace long ago! "

And?

But he smiled and didn't say anything.

"Alright, leave the booklet with me.

You can go back and wait for your reward. "Qianlong was in a good mood, and even his tone was exceptionally amiable.

Then, he asked, "What do you think?

Do you want me to give you a few more days to rest? "

But without waiting for him?

After replying, Qianlong shook his head and said, "You can't, you can't. It's rare to have a young official like you in the imperial court. You can't rest now.

When you get married in the future, we will naturally give you enough marriage leave!

Get your ass down here and attend court tomorrow! "

And?

"Yes."

Qianlong sat back down and said, "Don't leave yet.

Let me ask you, have you seen Jia Zheng in the past few days? "

When the emperor called his subjects by their names, firstly, it meant that he appreciated them and they were close to each other. Secondly, it meant that he didn't like them very much.

This place was obviously the latter.

"When I went back to write the memorial, I couldn't think straight for a while and got angry. I couldn't sleep at night, so I went to the Taoist temple to ask for medicine. I happened to meet the Minister Counsellor there."

Qianlong stared at him and smiled, "Alright, you're a capable one.

Jia Zheng sees you as a confidant, so you should restrain him a little. "Qianlong paused, and his gaze was somewhat cold," Naturally, you don't have to care about some small matters. "

Qianlong couldn't wait to see Rongguo Province become more rampant and self-destruct.

And?

He had long seen through Qianlong's thoughts. At this moment, he smiled and bowed, "Rest assured, Your Majesty. I understand this matter well."

"Someone, go to the imperial kitchen and bring some blood bird's nest here. Have it with Minister Counsellor He to nourish his body.

You've worked hard these past few days. "

And?

He kowtowed and thanked him.

A portion of bird's nest was nothing.

And?

He knew that there would only be better and greater rewards waiting for him in the future.

After a while, a palace maid delivered the blood bird's nest to He?

In front of him, a young eunuch moved a stool for him.

And?

He didn't stand on ceremony and immediately sat down and ate slowly.

As he was eating, he suddenly heard Qianlong ask, "I heard that you've set up a few shops in the capital?"

This was when he first arrived in the capital and?

He set it up.

And?

He didn't intend to avoid Qianlong, so he nodded in agreement. His mouth didn't stop, and he continued to eat the bird's nest.

"How's the income?"

"It's just enough to pay the wages of the shop's workers."

"You're fooling me. Do you think I don't know your methods?

You should be making a lot of money every day. "Qianlong didn't have the slightest intention of blaming him.

"Your Majesty is overpraising me."

Qianlong's tone suddenly changed, "Jia Bufei, white jade works for Tang Jin's horse.

Epang Palace, three hundred li, can't accommodate the Shi of Jinling.

The East Sea lacked white jade beds, so the Dragon King invited the King of Jinling.

Good snow in good years, pearls like earth, gold like iron.

… You must have heard of it, haven't you? "

"It's like thunder to the ear."

Qianlong's face turned cold, "You're right.

It's like thunder to the ear.

It's not a proper aristocrat, but it's much grander than the ordinary imperial relatives.

The Rong and Ning Manors, the Shi of Jinling, the imperial merchant Xue Clan … all of them are very precious. "

So now?

There was no response.

It was obvious that Qianlong was unhappy. Whatever he said wouldn't be pleasant to hear.

"Your shop is running well." Qianlong suddenly turned back, "It might be stronger than the Xue Clan in the future."

With?

He understood Qianlong's meaning and immediately bowed, "Then I'll borrow Your Majesty's golden mouth to speak."

Qianlong glanced at the jade bowl in his hand and smiled, "Alright, you can go back.

I'll go take a look at your shop another day. "

The palace maids and eunuchs hurriedly removed the bowls, chopsticks, and stools.

With?

He bowed again, then turned and walked out of Yangxin Palace Hall.

Not long after he went back, with?

He waited for an imperial edict to reward him.

He was given four manors, a hundred mu of fertile land, more than ten servants, gold, silver, jewelry, cloth, and antiques.

The news naturally couldn't be hidden.

The day the imperial edict arrived, the news quickly spread throughout the capital as if it had wings.

With?

He was in the limelight once again.

Those who were secretly in love with each other?

People couldn't help but be more eager.

Naturally, they couldn't avoid slandering him behind his back. Say?

It was the appearance of a sycophantic official who only knew how to bewitch the emperor.

But even if they had a thousand guts, they wouldn't dare to say these words to others.

After all, if these words were said, Qianlong wouldn't be angry with?

It would be them.

Wasn't this the same as slandering Qianlong for being muddle-headed?

Who would dare to say it?

Now with?

His thoughts were completely unconcerned about whether others praised or slandered him.

He asked Liu Quan, "Is there a letter from Rongguo Province?"

"No."

With?

There was an inexplicable sense of loss.

Perhaps it was because Daiyu was close by, so he was more concerned than before.

With?

He thought so in his heart.

Liu Quan carefully looked at He?

"Today, someone came to seek an audience with you, Mistress."

"Hmm?

Who is it? "

"The governor of Zhili, Feng Yinglian, came from Lord Feng's residence."

With?

His eyelids twitched, "What did he say?"

"He didn't say anything. He just said that he would like to invite you to come for tea another day."

With?

He pinched his fingertips, "Hmm, if he comes again next time, just say that I've been very busy working for the emperor recently.

I'm afraid I don't have the time. "

Liu Quan couldn't help but ask, "Master, do you not like Miss Feng?"

But everyone knew that the Feng family had taken a liking to Master a long time ago.

Now that Master had risen to the heavens in one step and become a popular person in front of the emperor, naturally he liked her even more …

With?

He looked up and said lightly, "Miss Feng is very good, but … she's not what I want."

Liu Quan whispered, "Then, what about Miss Lin?"

With?

He stared at him coldly, "How can you make such a joke?

I've known her since she was young.

I just pitied her because she was young and lost her mother … "

Liu Quan hurriedly held his breath and didn't dare to talk nonsense again.

With?

But he didn't stop there. Instead, he continued, "I don't want to hear half a word of this."

Liu Quan hurriedly nodded.

If this were to spread, it would ruin Miss Lin's reputation.

With?

How could he stand by and watch Daiyu be slandered by others?

"I won't be so leisurely tomorrow. Since I still have some time today, I'll go buy some things on the street and send them to Miss Lin."

As he spoke, he got up and walked out.

Liu Quan sighed.

So attentive.

You're not her father or elder brother.

If you don't like her, then what is?

… …

On this day, Rongguo Province received gifts delivered to their doorstep.

They were all rare delicacies, and their prices were not cheap.

But unlike before, a lot of food was delivered this time. Everyone in Rongguo Province received a share.

Even Tanchun's sisters received a share.

Daiyu's share was naturally delivered to the Jade Screen Cupboard in broad daylight.

"Is it from that young master again?" Zi Juan asked.

Xue Yan smiled and nodded, "That's right."

Zi Juan also smiled. He rubbed the handkerchief in his hand and said, "This young master is really amazing. He easily made everyone in the mansion appreciate his kindness."

Daiyu unconsciously pursed her lips and a trace of a smile appeared on her face.

She actually felt as if he was praising her.

Jia Zheng didn't notice He Zhichu's expression.

Abacus immediately nodded and ordered a first-class maid in the courtyard to pass on the message.

After a pause, Jia Zheng suddenly remembered that Baoyu was now swollen like a pig's head. How could he be sent back?

Jia Zheng frowned and couldn't help but look worried.

With?

Seeing this, he said, "Brother Cunzhou has already solved the immediate crisis. Why are you still so worried?"

Jia Zheng said awkwardly, "Baoyu's appearance …"

"This appearance is good. When he wakes up, he'll learn that he shouldn't do ridiculous things."

With?

After a pause, he deliberately said, "Or is Brother Cunzhou worried about how to explain it to Old Madam in the mansion?"

Jia Zheng nodded, "Yes!

Old Madam loves and cherishes him the most. How could she bear to see him get hurt? "
