The emperor looked at her with a serious expression, "Can a spark start a prairie fire? You have already involved the foundation of the country and the government. Do you know, what do you want?"

Zi Lan pursed her lips and looked a little disappointed and uncomfortable in her eyes for a moment, but she still spoke with a smile.

"Your Majesty, I don't want anything, nor do I want any official positions and money for my relatives, fathers and brothers. They have never been able to get their current status through my cleverness, but their own efforts and loyalty to get their current status.

My father's ten years of hard study was achieved through the imperial examinations and the hard work of hard work over the years. My grandfather was injured. The ranking in the Yang family's mourning hall was shocking. It was also wealth and peace that was exchanged for loyalty. It was never a status that I had achieved through my little cleverness.

At the beginning, I just thought that others would do it, so I would do it too. If I make money and don’t do some charity for people’s livelihood, I will be talked about. In fact, I have a very narrow idea, but the more I do it later, the more I feel it and the more I gain.

I think I should help them with this ability. They gave me a lot of things first, which I didn’t know before.

Giving money does not mean you are kind, and helping others with your own actions does not mean you have no credit. I have seen great potential and full of sincerity in those children and the elderly.

I have low abilities and limited status. I can't give them more things or a bright future. But you can. This time I'm not for the Song family, not for the Yang family, nor for my father and brother. They have their own pride and talent. I don't need to point fingers and meddle in other people's business.

I just want to have an opportunity for those children and for those lonely and widowed elderly people who are still working hard to support themselves to prove that they are not their own waste."

Zilan is still fighting for reasons. This has nothing to do with the position and father and brother. She just wants to fulfill her social responsibilities. First of all, she gets a lot from these orphans and widows. What should she repay?

The emperor pondered for a while and turned his head to look at Master Cui, sighing, "They are not as good as a child, and they have a innocent heart."

Cui Xiangye sighed leisurely, "Your idea is very good, but there are still many problems. Although it has great potential for both the emperor and the court, it can make money move people's hearts. How to restrain greedy officials is a big problem. It's good for you to let us think about it."

Zi Lan hesitated and stared at Grandpa Cui, then looked at the emperor, hoping that he could give a positive answer.

"Well, I have been doing observation records for many years, as well as the account book and some experiences. Do you want to read it?"

She did not give up any opportunity. If she missed today, no one would stand up for those pitiful and helpless people. The Song family was not suitable, the Yang family was not suitable, and the Cui family could not make this request. They all had their own families and tribe members to protect.

The emperor looked at her for a long time and gave her a lot of pressure, and was silent for a long time.

"You think about it. I have other ideas to make money. As long as you need me, my daughter will give you advice at any time.

I know I am not as good as those powerful people in the court, but I can provide you with a suggestion and plan, so that other talents can do it and will not let you suffer any losses."

Zi Lan was still lobbying hard, and the fourth son of the Song family covered his face and burst into tears.

He stood up and pulled Zilan behind him and knelt down, "Please forgive my sister. She just felt that the people in the charity hall were pitiful. They helped her make a lot of money. The sister felt that she gave them too little, and she was very sorry for them, so she just wanted to do her best.

She doesn't understand the government affairs at all. We spoiled her. Please don't blame your sister."

After saying that, he leaned down on the ground and kowtowed deeply. If he continued, the emperor would be angry.

Zi Lan stood there and raised her hand to cover her face, feeling a little excited and could not calm down for a long time. Did she do something wrong? Shouldn't she say this? After all, this place is different from modern times. The ancient imperial power was supreme, maybe I was wrong.

The feeling of loss and loss for a moment covered my whole body. I felt cold all over. I was cautious for many years but was impulsive for a moment. Isn’t it a bit too self-righteous?

The air seemed very congested and depressed. No one said anything for a while. Cui Hao quietly moved his footsteps and blocked Zi Lan behind him to prevent the emperor from getting angry if he really lost his temper. His mind was also turning quickly. What should he say to make the emperor calm down and not blame Lan'er.

He secretly looked at his grandfather and found that he was not anxious or angry. The grandparents and grandchildren looked at each other. Mr. Cui shook his eyes at his grandson and smiled. Cui Hao immediately lowered his head and quietly spit out the turbid air. This was nothing to do.

After silence to the emperor for a long time, he finally spoke, "I didn't expect you to be so brave and plead for those poor old, weak, women and children. Are you not afraid that I will blame you?"

Zi Lan lowered her head and felt very upset, "I'm also afraid, but I won't miss this opportunity next time. I said this because I think it's a good thing to benefit the country and the people, and it's also good to make a lot of money. With the money and the treasury, we can do more things, right?

But I think it might be because I think it was a bad idea, which made you embarrassed. It was because I thought things too simple. Sorry, I was too impulsive and reckless."

She raised her head and smiled awkwardly.

The emperor smiled, his smile very happily, "Get up, don't kneel down, I don't mean to blame you."

Your dream is beautiful. I understand it, but it is not easy to implement it. I cannot give you a reply at this time, but I promise you will consider it seriously. I will give your things to the prime minister and I will take a closer look.

If it is really feasible, I promise you that you will do this seriously, just like your wool business, and I will do it with my heart.

You are right, even an abandoned child is my people and is qualified to demand a bright future.”

Zi Lan suddenly raised her head when she heard this, with an incredible surprise on her face, "Really, Master, are you really willing to see my things? That's great, as long as you are willing to take a look."

The emperor smiled kindly at her, "Good boy, you have a innocent heart. I have read that right. I have come here and gained a lot."

"The emperor is wise and loves the people as his sons. Otherwise, how could he allow a little girl to point fingers? I have never thanked the emperor for being enlightened."

Mr. Cui was in time to make up for Zilan.

Zi Lan immediately knelt happily on the ground and kowtowed to thank him, "Thank you, the emperor for tolerating his ministers and daughters, and thanking him for his kindness and mercy for those poor children."

"Hahaha! OK, get up, I'm hungry, give me some food."

The emperor laughed and was in a very happy mood.

"yes."

Zilan and the fourth brother stood up, and the fourth brother quickly went to tell the manager to serve the food.

The dishes were already ready and I didn't dare to go in and disturb me. The waiter looked around at the stairs from time to time, waiting for their orders.

The dishes were brought up by the waiter. After serving, the waiter bowed slightly and immediately retreated.

Yang Yu took the monkey wine and poured a glass of wine for the emperor and the prime minister Cui, "Your Majesty, you two taste the monkey wine made by your sister."
