Zi Wan put down the tray and knelt down with a pop: "Princess, I heard you just now, I don't want anything! This is enough! Enough!"
"Get up and tell me, didn't you tell me that there is no rule of kneeling here?"
Kneeling to the sky, kneeling to the ground, kneeling to my parents, I feel that I am not blessed to receive the warmth.
Zi Yuan quickly stood up: "I won't kneel, I won't kneel..."
"The emperor will definitely give you a reward. In addition to being freed from slavery, there should be some other rewards. This is what you deserve. It is what you have earned through your own efforts. If you have any requests, you can ask for it and I can help you get it. ....." Nuan Nuan explained to her.
If an ordinary person wins a city, it is a first-class achievement, and it is enough to be granted the title of Lord of the Township.
But Aster's identity is a sin slave, so freeing her from slavery and giving her some honorary rewards is already a very big reward in terms of law and custom.
After all, people in this dynasty are divided into three, six or nine grades, high and low.
It is a great honor to be granted the title of Xiangjun. Xiangjun has a certain influence on the people. They receive the salary from the court and can also do some things in this name.
After all, Zi Wan is the descendant of the guilty minister, and even the collateral relatives are implicated in the serious crime. If she is suddenly made the township monarch, the court will have some scruples.
Aster: "That's enough. This reward is enough! It's something I never dreamed of! I don't need anything else!"
Nuan Nuan nodded: "You have learned tea art well. With the emperor's reward, you will definitely be able to make a lot of money by opening a teahouse by yourself."
The emperor will definitely reward some money and a house, and the monthly silver and rewards that Wen Nuan gives to the maids are very generous. Their food is all provided by Anguo Duke's Mansion, and there are few places to spend money, so Wen Wen knows that Zi Wan must have saved some. With money and rewards, she also has the capital to do some business.
Zi Yuan shook her head: "No, I don't want to go out, I want to stay with the princess and serve the princess until she is old! Princess, don't let me go!"
Her abilities were all given by the princess. She knew that without the princess, she would be nothing!
Seeing her like this, Nuan Nuan didn't say much: "Okay, let's talk about it later! After all, it would be a pity if your current ability is buried!"
"It's a pity. Serving the princess well is the most worthwhile thing for me! Princess, please don't drive me out of the house! Otherwise, this is not a reward, it is clearly a punishment! If this is the case, then I don't want the reward either! I Just be the princess’ maid!”
She, a maid, has learned how to serve people since she was born. How will she know what to do after she goes out
She is not as powerful a woman as the princess!
Without the princess, nothing can be done!
No one will treat her as a human being!
Besides, she escaped from slavery with the help of the princess, but she left the princess, wouldn't she become an ungrateful person
She can't do this kind of thing!
Wen Nuan couldn't laugh or cry: "What kind of punishment? Nonsense! I didn't drive you away. Duke Anguo's mansion will always be your home! When you get married, it will still be your natal home! You can do whatever you want!"
Aster obviously has no confidence in herself, and her servility is deeply ingrained!
But after all, she is a person who has been cultivated by herself, and her talents cannot be wasted. Later, she will open a teahouse outside the city and let her learn to take care of it. Then she will be given dividends.
Women, if they are capable and have money in hand, they have nothing to fear!
Zi Wan's face turned red instantly: "What did the princess say? I don't want to get married. I want to stay with the princess for the rest of my life."
Wen Nuan didn't believe this, and besides, she didn't want her maid to die alone!
Nuan Nuan thought of Wan Yun again. She had to pay attention to this life-long event for her subordinates!

The next day, morning
The emperor said to the minister of Honglu Temple: "My dear, have all the envoys been escorted away?"
The minister of Honglu Temple cupped his hands and replied: "Back to the emperor, many members of the envoys from the four countries have left! Only the seventh prince of Beiming, the third prince of Dongling, the third prince of Xihua, the sixth prince of Southern Xinjiang... and others Knowing that the Eighth Princess was about to get married to the King of Lanling Kingdom, they said they would leave after attending the Eighth Princess' wedding."
The emperor snorted in his heart after hearing this. Why did he leave after attending the eighth princess's wedding
This is obviously because the goal has not been achieved, so he stayed to look for opportunities to achieve the goal.
Take the Dongling people as an example. They brought the unconscious Imperial Master here. They tried to save him and took him back directly. How should they explain it
And Xihua Country, which lost so many things, left without getting the breeding methods for rice and wheat that can produce thousands of kilograms per mu? How happy!
And southern Xinjiang...
So the emperor had already guessed that these envoys would not leave immediately.
Xiaoba's marriage just gave them a good excuse to stay!
Just stay!
When it comes time to attend the wedding, they have to show up with the gifts!
That way Xiaoba will have more dowry!
Very good!
It's just that I have to waste some food money on them.
But don’t be afraid, the wool comes from the sheep!
When the time comes, just let the seventeenth emperor's brother pull a handful of wool off their bodies!
Nalan Jinnian suddenly felt his nose was a little itchy, and he glanced at the emperor.
The emperor did not expect that just thinking about it, the Seventeenth Emperor's brother felt something. He quickly changed his gaze and continued: "Since the envoys have not left yet, the security of the capital cannot be relaxed! We must ensure the safety of all the envoys! And ... ...."
The emperor gave an explanation.
The ministers accepted the order one after another.
Of course, in the final analysis, public security is still the most important thing!
The Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, who have been working overtime for more than a month, mentally greeted all the eighteen generations of their ancestors who came from various countries!
Next, the emperor discussed with the ministers the matter of taking over the lost city of Xihua Kingdom and the lost salt lake of Dongling Kingdom.
This is not the first time this has happened, Nalan Guo is already familiar with this.
After things were explained clearly, the rewards began based on merit!
"On Wanshou Day yesterday, our Nalan Kingdom won a grand slam! Haha, we have the Mongolian BMW, the Salt Lake, and two more cities. The waist of Nalan Kingdom has become fatter again! .. . . . . These are all the contributions of several beloved ladies! Especially Princess Hui’an! Haha... I will be rewarded heavily!"
"Princess Hui'an listens to the reward!"
Nuan Nuan came out: "My daughter is here!"
"Princess Hui'an is knowledgeable and talented. She is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is both civilized and military, and has unparalleled wisdom and courage... During the Longevity Festival, she won 10,000 Mongolian horses for Nalan Kingdom, and hundreds of cavalrymen. God of War! The number and ability of the cavalry are the greatest guarantee for a country to resist the invasion of enemy countries and defend the country! The elite cavalry is the magic weapon for traveling across the battlefield and winning thousands of miles! Cavalry, cavalry, requires both cavalry and soldiers!
We in Nalan Kingdom have very powerful soldiers, but no good horses! It’s all available now! This is all the credit of Princess Hui'an! Not only war horses, but also cities, which have been used to expand territories since ancient times..."
The emperor praised Wen Nuan so much that his saliva dried up and he didn't stop yet!
