Mrs. Zhao did not lie. The master loves his aunt very much. If he brings her back, she will inevitably be taught a lesson by her. Coupled with the master's love, the aunt in the backyard will definitely not let her go.
The master knew early on that he liked to be jealous in the backyard, and if he brought his aunt back, there would be an uproar. He couldn't bear the aunt's injustice, so he didn't plan to bring her back to his house.
However, this move made Mrs. Zhao resent Aunt Qing even more. She had never worried about other concubines giving birth to sons. Ever since she heard that Aunt Qing was pregnant, she had been worried because she knew that regardless of Aunt Qing giving birth to a boy,
When a girl is born, the master will hold the child in his hands.
Later, because Aunt Qing became ill, the master brought Xu'er back. Every time she saw Xu'er, she would think of Aunt Qing's face. Out of curiosity, she had secretly seen Aunt Qing.
.That woman is indeed as gentle as water. No woman in the backyard can compare to her.
Because Bin'er didn't live up to expectations, she was worried that the master would value Xu'er more. That's why she thought of killing Xu'er.
Later, she figured out that she had done a lot of wrong things. This time when Xu'er came back, she would treat him well.
However, she did not expect that since Bin'er came back from Licheng, she felt that Bin'er had become a lot more sensible. This time he brought back such good news that even if he could not manage business, he could at least be a fourth-grade official.
"Madam, the eldest young master has indeed changed a lot. He is completely different from before. He speaks and does things in an orderly manner. Compared with before, he doesn't look like a person at all." Grandma said.
"You think so too, right? I'm not used to Bin'er's serious way of speaking." Mrs. Zhao said.
"Madam, you also heard what the eldest young master said. It seems that he plans to take care of his business well. He doesn't plan to resign and quit, right?" Grandma said.:
"It shouldn't be possible, right? His Majesty will only give him the official position if he trusts him, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy." Mrs. Zhao said.
Palace of Hades.
"Miss, Mr. Zhao is asking for an audience in the front hall," Ru Shi said.
"Bring him to the main courtyard." Murong Xi said.
Nan Feng, who was standing aside, said with a smile: "Your Majesty just wants to reward him more. Why do you have to tie him up with a fourth-grade official? You know that his mind is all about business, how can you accept it?"
"Anyway, I won the bet. He probably came here just for this matter." Murong Xi said.
"Master Zhao did come over, but he didn't say what it was for. What if it was for something else?" Nanfeng said.
"I just think it's a pity that his flexible mind is only used for business." Murong Xi said.
"It is indeed a pity. Originally, I planned to keep him in Licheng to help manage the business of Anxiang Pavilion. Although he agreed verbally, he was still unwilling to accept it in his heart." Nanfeng said.
"Because many people in the capital think that the reason why the Zhao family's business is booming is entirely because of the Prime Minister's relationship. But as far as I know, the Zhao family master is very capable." Murong Xi said.
"Miss, Mr. Zhao is outside the door." Ru Shi said.
"Let him come in." Murong Xi said.
After Mr. Zhao came in, he said to Murong Xi: "I have seen Princess Pluto, and it turns out that Master Nanfeng is also here."
"Master Zhao came to see me because of the imperial edict, right?" Murong Xi asked.
After listening to Murong Xi's words, Mr. Zhao said: "That's right, Princess, your Majesty's reward is really too much. I just helped a little by the way, and it's not worth mentioning at all. Since I have already awarded the reward, why do you still give it to me?"
I want to make the younger one a fourth-grade official. The younger one is really not qualified, so..."
Murong Xi smiled and said: "Those rewards are actually nothing. As for the fourth-grade official, they are all for your sake. The rumors about you in the capital have not been very good. I know you are disguising yourself, but this is not
Do you feel aggrieved? Besides, you also have to think about the Zhao family’s business. If nothing changes, can you do a good job in business? I’m afraid everyone will stay away when they hear your name, right?”
Mr. Zhao admitted that what Murong Xi said was correct, but since His Majesty has sealed so many people,
Reward, others see it in their eyes, and will not look down upon him. Why must he be given a fourth-grade official? How can he do business?
"I know that Princess Pluto is thinking about me, but His Majesty has already given me a lot of rewards, why do I have to appoint a fourth-grade official? You know that I don't have the ability to do it, and I will only make people laugh when the time comes." Zhao
The young master said.
"You are a guard with a sword given by the Emperor. Who dares to laugh at you? Don't worry, although His Majesty has given you an official position, he has no intention of tying you to the capital. But I think you have the ability, but you are just focused on business.
Keep this imperial gold medal well guarded, I believe you will be able to use it in the future. In fact, I know what happened before, and your appearance is not what the world has seen. Now that your cousin is engaged, you
Why go on like this?" Murong Xi said.
"I understand what the princess means," Mr. Zhao said.
"Is there anything else?" Murong Xi asked.
"Second Master Luo has been imprisoned by the boss, but the harm will not harm his children, so Luo Ying went to Luo Mansion." Mr. Zhao said.
"Well, Luo Ying did the right thing and did not disappoint me." Murong Xi said.
"I originally planned to return to Licheng after the New Year. The shop in Licheng is doing well, so I don't want to just give up. I also want to go to other places later. Now that I have been granted an official position, can I no longer continue doing business?
?" Mr. Zhao asked nervously.
He has just started. It would be a pity if he could not do business because he was an official.
"The business in the capital belongs to the Zhao family and has nothing to do with you. And the shop you opened in Licheng does not belong to the Zhao family. When you go outside, no one will know that you are a member of the Zhao family, and naturally they will not know that you have an official position.
As long as you don't use your official position to seek personal gain, no one will stop you." Murong Xi said with a smile.
"Thank you, Princess." Mr. Zhao said.
"But if you leave, what will Miss Yun He do?" Murong Xi asked.
"She has found her family. Even Mrs. Qin and Ningxiang have been taken to the capital. She shouldn't have anything to worry about now, right?" Mr. Zhao said.
"Well, what you said is correct. I heard that An Linghou and his wife wanted to take advantage of the Chinese New Year to help her find a suitable husband. You also know that at Yunhe's age, it stands to reason that it would be early for her to find a suitable husband.
You should get married." Murong Xi said with a smile.
"It turns out that Marquis An Ling and his wife love Yun He very much, and I believe they will help her find a suitable candidate." Mr. Zhao said a little unnaturally.
Nanfeng rolled his eyes, knowing that Murong Xi was going to cause trouble again, Murong Xi continued with a smile: "If there is nothing else, then go and get busy."
When Mr. Zhao left the Hades Mansion, he was still in a daze. He carelessly did not follow him in. Seeing Mr. Zhao's appearance, he asked, "Sir, what's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing, let's go back home first," Mr. Zhao said.
After Mr. Zhao got on the carriage, he recalled Murong Xi's words. For some reason, when he heard that An Linghou was going to choose a husband for Yun He, he was not in a good mood at all. He should have been happy for her, but he
But he wasn't happy at all.
He felt sour in his heart, as if something important had been taken away. Could it be that he had fallen in love with Yun He? But would Yun He be interested in him? He had agreed to return home with him entirely just to find his family.
.Although she once said that as long as he helped her find her family, she would stay by her side. However, he did not want to use this matter to tie Yun He up for the rest of his life. If Yun He had no intention of him, he would not do this.
.Besides, before coming back, he reassured Yun He that he would not embarrass her.
However, even if Anling Houfu helps Yun He choose a husband, he should still look down on people like him. He is a well-known playboy in the capital. He is not only lustful but also has no future. Who can be admired by a noble lady?
he?
Even though Yun He had been with Yun He for a long time, Yun He knew him well, but An Linghou and his wife did not know him. I am afraid that they thought they wanted to deceive Yun He, so they were so good to Yun He. That day, he went to An Ling with Princess Pluto.
When he was waiting in the palace, An Linghou's eyes looked as if he wanted to kill him.
Besides, after what happened, he was only a fourth-grade official, how could he be worthy of Yun He.
Is it really necessary to follow Princess Pluto's advice and restore his appearance first? In fact, he should thank Princess Pluto. It must be her reason that Your Majesty would give him the official title. In this way, would An Linghou treat him well?
Any change?
Unknowingly, he arrived at the gate of the Zhao family and said carelessly: "Master, we are here."
Only then did the young master of the Zhao family come to his senses and hurriedly got out of the carriage. However, he did not expect that as soon as he entered the house, he heard that his aunt and his cousin were visiting the Zhao family.
After the housekeeper finished talking to him, he said, "I'm going back to the yard first."
"Master, my wife specially asked me to wait here for you to come back. When the time comes, I will ask you to go directly to the main courtyard." said the housekeeper.
"I understand." Mr. Zhao said.
Mr. Zhao didn't want to see his cousin and wanted to avoid her, but he didn't expect that his mother had specially arranged for the housekeeper to wait for him in the yard. He knew his mother's purpose, which was just to show off. However, he was just a fourth-rank official.
, I believe my aunt will not take it seriously. I wonder what my mother wants to show off?
Mr. Zhao gave a wry smile and then went to the main courtyard. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he heard his mother's hearty laughter. Mr. Zhao shook his head and walked in.
"Aunt, I heard you were here just after I came in. I haven't seen you for a few days. How are you?" Mr. Zhao said respectfully.
The Prime Minister's wife looked at Mr. Zhao up and down. Seeing that Mr. Zhao was as respectful to her as before, she smiled and said, "My health is pretty good these days, especially my mood. It's even better."
"Is there any happy event for my aunt?" Mr. Zhao said.
"I'm not your cousin yet. We've finally made an engagement and will get married after the Chinese New Year. As you know best, what my aunt is most worried about is your cousin's marriage. Finally, it's settled," the Prime Minister's wife said.
"It turns out that my cousin is getting married. I didn't receive any news in Licheng. I should have brought you a big gift if I had known. Congratulations to you, cousin." Mr. Zhao said with a smile.
"Cousin, you will sincerely bless Yue'er, won't you?" Yue'er asked cautiously.
"You are my cousin, so of course I sincerely congratulate you. How about I prepare a big gift for you on the day you get married?" Mr. Zhao said.
