The emperor drank two sips of tea and put the tea cup on one side: "You donated 100,000 taels of silver in Jingling City, and Li Manian, the salt transport envoy of Jingling, wrote the matter into a report and reported it to you. He said that you contributed greatly. Listen to this. Say you took out all the silver that Niyunfang and Buxianlou earned in the last year?"
Mu Yunyao shook her head slightly, and answered truthfully, "I didn't take it all out, but I kept 50,000 taels, of which 30,000 taels were used for turnover, and 14,000 taels were used for meeting gifts for my grandmother and others. The rest will be handed over to my mother for safekeeping for later use."
"What you said is quite detailed. No matter what, it's good to be grateful. I should reward you. In addition, the tea was brewed well today. When you come back, find the person who beat you in the Meng family and call back." Mu Yunyao said She was stunned, didn't move for a long time, just when Xu Li couldn't help but remind her, she suddenly stood up, knelt on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed to the emperor with great respect. The little seedling under the giant tree, even if it is a giant
Cover the top, but also stubbornly strive for a breather.
After Mu Yunyao saluted, she leaned over and knelt on the ground, her chest heaving violently for a moment, and then she said solemnly: "The people's daughter, thank the emperor for being fair!" If you listen carefully, you can still find the faint cry in her voice. , seems to tell how easy this justice is to come.
"Well, let's go down." "The people's daughter retire." Mu Yunyao bowed her head and bowed out of the hall. As she retreated, she couldn't hold back her tears. Such a taboo thing made her dare not look up at all. , but I don't know if I was too excited, so I couldn't stop sobbing twice. In the quiet hall, the voice
Extraordinarily obvious.
When she left, the emperor couldn't help but took the tea cup and tasted it again: "The craftsmanship of making this tea is really worthless."
Xu Li smiled on the side. Hearing this sigh, he couldn't help but say, "Miss Mu's skill in making tea is really good."
The emperor put down the teacup and looked at the memorial. After writing a few times with the red pen, he couldn't help but chuckle: "It's a very lively girl."
Xu Li couldn't help his heart beating violently. There are not many people who can get the emperor's praise like this: "To be praised by the emperor, that Miss Mu is really blessed."
Is it a blessing to get a compliment from him
The emperor couldn't help but remember what Mu Yunyao said before, saying that he can affect a person's life at a glance. Although he understood this truth before, he didn't pay much attention to it. Now combined with Xu Li's emotional words, he couldn't help but think of the emperor's elder sister Yide. From the princess' words:
The emperor holds the emperor sword, which can slaughter all things and make life charred; it can also frighten ghosts and protect the peace and tranquility of society and crops!
"Xu Li, the eldest princess will return to the palace before the Mid-Autumn Festival, is the palace ready?" Xu Li quickly replied respectfully: "Reporting to the emperor, the Yuhua Palace of the eldest princess has always been cleaned and organized every day, and now I heard that When the eldest princess returned to the palace, she deliberately repainted the pepper wall. The curtains, carpets and other items in the palace were replaced with new ones, all of which were selected by the eldest princess in a simple and elegant style.
. The flowers, trees, landscape pavilions and pavilions in the palace have also been reorganized and repaired. "
The emperor listened carefully, and then picked out a few details to ask. After getting a satisfactory answer, he smiled a little: "I don't know if the eldest princess would like to stay for a while longer this time."
"Although the eldest princess does not live in the palace, she always remembers the emperor."
The emperor shook his head: "In the end, there are some things that are different, I am now the emperor, but the emperor is worried about being infected with my authority. She has lived in the palace for many years and is easily reluctant to return to the palace. If it wasn't for me this time. After sending letters several times, I'm afraid I won't be willing to come back."
Xu Li didn't dare to answer. Princess Yide had a very special position in the emperor's heart. If he couldn't say a single word, it would cause the emperor's heart to feel unhappy. The emperor paused for a moment, as if he had thought of something, and then said: "... I was not favored when I was the prince, and even got offended by several imperial brothers because of my poor background. At that time, as long as the imperial sister found out, she would definitely Help me to call back directly, and the queen is ruthless, choose
The places are those that are both painful and not easy to leave traces. Every time they can make those who bully me cry endlessly. Later, when the father was old and in poor health, the disputes gradually started, and the days were even more sad, plus... "
Xu Li lowered his head deeply, and couldn't help dripping with cold sweat. The things that the emperor said were the secrets of the royal family, and as a servant, he couldn't hear them. Fortunately, the emperor seemed to sense something was wrong, and swallowed the following words directly: I don't know why, but seeing Mu Yunyao's expression when he finally left, it reminded him of the extremely difficult days at the beginning. He and Huangjie fought against the torrent of the sky with one's own strength, surrounded by enemies
The crowd is surrounded by wolves, isolated and trembling...
"Xu Li, the eldest princess' mansion should also be taken care of carefully." When the emperor returned to the palace this time, it seemed that she was reminded by the eminent monk that she wanted to find a girl to be recorded in the name of her lost daughter. Leave some time in between.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
On the other side, Mu Yunyao followed the little father-in-law who had led the way out of the palace gate. Jin Lan and Jin Qiao hurried up to meet them, and the tension in their eyes was relieved: "Miss."
Mu Yunyao smiled at them, her eyes still slightly red. Aunt Qi on the side silently took her look in her eyes, ready to go back and report the truth to the eldest lady.
The little father-in-law who led the way saluted Mu Yunyao: "Miss Mu, you have already left the palace, and the servant will return to father-in-law Li."
Mu Yunyao motioned to Jin Lan to send the purse, smiled and nodded in thanks, "Thank you father-in-law for helping me lead the way twice."
The little father-in-law was a little surprised when he received the purse, and received it into his sleeve in an unnatural way: "Miss Mu, walk slowly."
Mu Yunyao got on the carriage and headed for Su Mansion. The little father-in-law who led the way returned to the palace and waited for a while before he found a chance to meet Li De: "Father Li, this is given to the servant by Miss Mu, and the servant is of no use in the palace, so I thought of bringing it to honor you. ." They are such inferior servants who can't easily get out of the palace gate, and they don't have any money left.
use.
Li De took the purse and opened it and glanced at it. Inside was a silver note of fifty taels. After reading it, he threw the purse into his father-in-law Xiaogui's arms: "Since it was Miss Mu who rewarded you, then you should accept it. Come on, I can't spend it now, when I can leave the palace in the future, I will naturally have a chance."
"Thank you, Eunuch Li."
"Well, since I have received the benefits of others, I will be extra respectful when I lead the way next time."
"Yes, thank you Eunuch Li for the point." Next time? Could that Miss Mu still enter the palace from time to time? Li De returned to the room and saw his master Xu Li sitting beside him resting, and quickly stepped forward with a smile on his face to help him squeeze his shoulders: "Master, you said that Miss Mu really dared to face the Meng family's Miss calling back?"
