When Tian Minyan came out of the huge palace, the howling cold wind hit her, and she shivered violently. Only then did she realize that her back was soaked with cold sweat.
She looked back at the majestic palace behind her, confused and a little scared at the same time. No wonder people say that the most difficult thing to predict in the world is the heart of an emperor.
She was really startled when the emperor's words just now hinted that Qi Qi Qi had a special regard for their family. There was some probing in his words, and she didn't know if she heard it wrong, and there was also a hint of jealousy.
But before she could answer, the emperor suddenly asked her to step aside. It was really strange. He called the person over, asked a few questions, then left the person alone and asked her to step down without saying anything. This was not a joke.
Are you playing?
Tian Minyan was a little uneasy. You must know that being hung up and down like this is the most uncomfortable thing.
"Miss Tian, please come to Sa's house." The little father-in-law who led the way pulled her back from her thoughts.
"Please, father-in-law, please lead the way." Tian Minyan smiled and nodded.
Emperor Rende watched the little figure disappear from a distance, narrowed his dazzling eyes, and suddenly asked: "Gao Bao, what do you think of this girl?"
Gao Bao was stunned for a moment, then took a step forward and said: "Back to the emperor, I see that Miss Tian is smart and knows how to advance and retreat. She is more dignified and dignified than the daughter of the doctor from the household department, and she can advance and retreat appropriately. The tutor of this Tian family thinks
Nothing wrong with it."
The eldest daughter of the household doctor Luo Cheng is from a small family. She is a dignified daughter of an official family. She is known for her petty style and short-sightedness. She also made a big fuss before because she stole the jewelry of the concubine at home.
, it was Luo Cheng who was also impeached by the censor.
The hidden meaning of Gao Bao's words was that Tian Minyan had a better temperament than the daughter of an official family, and her cultivation was not that of someone who had never seen the world.
"You are praising her." Emperor Rende raised his eyebrows.
Gao Bao carefully looked at the emperor's face and said: "Your Majesty, if the old slave is replaced and the method proposed can grow crops that are beneficial to the country and the people of the Southern Kingdom, then he will be really happy. Miss Tian is ten
A three-year-old girl can be praised by an old slave for being able to handle honor and disgrace at such a young age."
Emperor Rende glanced at him, then changed the topic and said, "The envoy from Brunei is here to convey my wishes. The Tian family's father and daughter have done great work in growing cotton. They will be given a state banquet to congratulate all the officials."
"No." Gao Bao bent down and responded, breathing a sigh of relief.
Tian Minyan followed her little father-in-law through the many palace gates, and suddenly stopped and saw a tall figure standing there in the distance.
He was dressed in a crescent-white long coat and a jet-black long-haired cloak. He had one hand behind his back and his eyes were piercing through from a distance.
Tian Minyan's heart warmed slightly and she smiled.
Seeing Qi Shiqi approaching, the young father-in-law immediately knelt down and saluted: "Good luck to you, the wise prince."
"Well, let's get up." Qi Shiqi raised his hand, looked at Tian Minyan and said calmly: "I know you are coming to the palace, and I happen to be leaving the palace, let's go together."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Tian Minyan bowed her knees and thanked her, then walked forward with him with a smile.
The little father-in-law stood there stupidly, looking at the two lines of footprints, one large and one small, on the snow, blinked, and murmured: "Have you never heard that the prince will come to the palace to see the emperor today?"
He walked back stupidly, then suddenly remembered, looked back, and said in horror: "Your Majesty came here specially to pick up Miss Na Tian?"
Along the way, the two of them didn't talk to each other until they left the palace gate and a carriage stopped there. Tian Minyan was helped by Ziyi to get into the carriage, and then she raised the curtain and looked at him: "Your Majesty..."
"Go back first, I think the emperor will give you an order." Qi Shiqi didn't say much, just said lightly.
Tian Minyan didn't understand the reason for his indifference. She just put down the curtain obediently and leaned on the carriage, thinking about what she had just met with the emperor. Was there anything wrong?
Just like that, she returned to the inn with the shaking of the carriage, and was surrounded by Tian Huairen and others, who rushed her into the yard eagerly.
"Nanny, have you seen the emperor? Is the emperor mighty? Is he fierce?" Tian Huairen asked urgently.
"Girl, isn't the palace very beautiful?" Ji Xiang also added.
Tian Minyan took a sip of hot tea and looked at the anxious expressions of the people around her, which suddenly made her a little funny. Even Bai Mei looked very anxious to know about the situation of meeting the emperor.
"The palace is naturally large and magnificent, and the emperor is also very majestic." Tian Minyan said with a faint smile.
"Girl, didn't the emperor reward you with anything?" Jixiang asked again, "Girl, you grew cotton!"
Tian Minyan frowned. Fortunately, she was the one in the room. Ziyi and Laner knew their identities and did not move forward. Otherwise, they would have been laughed at.
"Jixiang, please don't say this casually in the future, lest people say that my Tian family has no rules and no tutoring, even if the girl's eyesight is so shallow." Tian Minyan said with a stern face: "Growing cotton requires everyone's efforts, not just me.
The merits of one person. As the saying goes, "eating the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor", the emperor takes care of everything every day and devotes himself to the great southern country. Only then can our southern country have peace and prosperity, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. We are not high-ranking officials. If we can grow cotton, it can be regarded as repaying the emperor's power.
Even if there is no reward, this kind of thing that benefits the country and the people is something that every citizen of the Southern Kingdom should do, do you understand?"
Ji Xiang's face turned green and red after being scolded, and he said non-no, "Girl, I understand."
Tian Minyan didn't know that all her words fell on the ears of a fair-faced, beardless father-in-law in Tsing Yi outside. When there was no sound in the room, he signaled Zi Yi to call someone.
"Girl, there is someone coming from the palace." Ziyi was also surprised for no reason. She originally wanted to remind her. But the person in front of her was the apprentice of the Grand Duke beside the emperor. She had no choice but to keep silent. Fortunately, this
Miss Tian is a smart person. I believe these words will be very convincing if they fall into the ears of the emperor.
When Tian Minyan heard that someone was coming to the palace, she was startled and quickly arranged her appearance to welcome him out.
Seeing Tian Minyan come out, the father-in-law flicked the fly whisk in his hand and said in a sharp voice: "The emperor has sent an order to summon Tian Huairen and Tian Minyan to attend the palace banquet."
Tian Minyan thanked her hurriedly and asked Ziyi to present the silver reward. The father-in-law smiled and took it into his sleeve, saying: "Girl, the emperor also sent two nuns to teach the etiquette in the palace."
"The daughter of the people thanks the emperor for his kindness."
After the father-in-law left, Tian Huairen said excitedly: "Nanny, so I can also see the emperor?"
Tian Minyan smiled and said: "Dad, who says it's not the case?" Xin said, the emperor didn't mean anything just now, and now he does it again, the Holy Heart is really unpredictable.
"If your mother knew, she would be very happy." Tian Huairen smiled like a chrysanthemum.
Tian Minyan's eyes were far away, and she didn't know how her mother and the others were doing now.
And just as Ziyi thought, the father-in-law who came to deliver the oral message told Eunuch Gao what he heard, and through Eunuch Gao's oral transmission it entered the emperor's eardrums. The emperor did not say anything, but Gao Bao saw it keenly.
See the relief and warmth flashing in the emperor's eyes.
