Chen Rui and Wei Zijin did not wait in the palace for too long, so Xiao Jingyao came out of the inner room alone.
"Let Brother Chen and Mrs. Ling wait for a long time..." Xiao Jingyao apologized and smiled at Chen Rui and Wei Zijin.
Chen Rui hurriedly put down the teacup, pulled Wei Zijin and stood up together, bowed to Xiao Jingyao and thanked him: "I dare not, it was because the emperor disturbed the prince... The emperor came to the door with his uncle this time because he wanted to thank the prince for giving his uncle to his uncle last time. Helping!”
"It's just a small matter, nothing can I ask?" Xiao Jingyao waved his hand and smiled indifferently, looking at Wei Zijin inadvertently. After seeing her seemingly thin again, a trace of inexplicable feeling appeared in his heart. Pity.
"I wonder if Mrs. Shangshu is better?" Xiao Jingyao asked politely and politely, not willing to let his emotions show too much.
Wei Zijin raised his eyes in surprise and met Xiao Jingyao's deep gaze, and his anxious and concerned expression appeared in his mind before fainting in the palace that day!
Such a gaze made her trance... How long has it been since she hadn't seen such a panicked but gentle gaze?!
She didn't understand why she had changed her identities and was no longer the childhood sweetheart Li Jingyou, why he was still so special to her!
She wanted to notice a clue from his gaze at this moment, but his expression was as calm as usual, as if the gaze he saw when he fainted that day was just her illusion!
Wei Zijin smiled bitterly in her heart. She shouldn't have thought too much... Xiao Jingyao has always liked to make friends with virtuous talents, and he has made friends with Shen Rui for a long time. His concern for herself is just out of courtesy, because she is from Shangshu Chen Rui. lady!
"Thank you for your concern, I'm much better..." Wei Zijin lowered his eyes, suppressed the loss that surged in his heart, and replied respectfully.
Xiao Jingyao responded lightly, then waved his hand to instruct the old housekeeper of the royal palace to bring a beautiful red ochre wooden box.
"This is a thousand-year-old ginseng. It's useless for me to keep it. I will leave it to the wife of Shangshu to replenish my body..." After Xiao Jingyao finished speaking, the old housekeeper opened the wooden box and looked at it for the prince and Shen Rui. It was obvious that it was inside. A precious thousand-year-old ginseng.
Chen Rui never expected that the King of Luoyang would give this gift, so he waved his hand and declined: "Thank you for your intention, but this thousand-year-old ginseng is too expensive, so the officials have no face to accept it..."
He brought Wei Zijin to thank him, just to thank the King of Luoyang for saving Wei Zijin who was vomiting blood in time. However, he never thought that the King of Luoyang would give him such precious thousand-year-old ginseng!
"How can a mere thousand-year-old ginseng be comparable to Brother Chen's friendship with me?" Xiao Jingyao smiled happily, and saw that Chen Rui was still hesitant, and said again: "I know that Brother Chen is an honest official, but After all, my wife vomited blood that day, her body needs to be replenished!"
When Chen Rui heard what the King of Luoyang said, he was also a little ashamed. He moved the King of Luoyang to appreciate him, and led him as a minister as his confidant. He was also ashamed of his concern for Wei Zijin, which was superficial!
He kept caring about her, but he didn't really think that her body needed these excellent supplements!
"The official has to refuse, thank you for the reward!" At this time, if he refused again, he would be a little artificial. He hurriedly thanked him with gratitude and took the red ochre wooden box containing thousand-year-old ginseng from the old housekeeper.
