"Come on, come on, your Majesty the Imperial Preceptor, I will give you a small gift, but it's not respectful. Please don't dislike it, the Imperial Preceptor. After all, we don't have a big family like the Imperial Preceptor."
An official smiled sinisterly: "Our annual salary is only a few dollars."
Xiao Xuance was a little angry when he heard this. These guys were obviously here to see a joke!
Especially the few gifts they gave, each one was worse than the last! They even contained cabbage.
Is this a gift? It’s simply insulting!
Immediately, His Highness the Prince said angrily: "You guys, don't go too far! Your Majesty's Imperial Preceptor is the Marquis of An Guo, whom Your Majesty personally conferred! He is also His Highness's teacher!"
Naturally, ordinary officials would not dare to answer Xiao Xuance's anger, but don't forget, they are not just the fifth and sixth grade officials.
There are also Lin Yu, the first-rank minister of the Ministry of Industry, and Zhao Jinsheng, the first-rank Taifu.
Lin Yu said calmly: "What are you talking about, Your Highness? Why is it too much for me to come to congratulate the Imperial Master out of kindness?"
"Zhou Sen and the others don't have high official positions. With their limited salaries, they can't afford any good gifts. This is understandable, right?"
Xiao Xuance was so angry that he started to beat people. He was not the Thirteen Taibao Boss Xiao for nothing.
There was progress during this period, but Zhao Kang also found that this guy had many bad habits.
That is to scold someone when you disagree with them, and get angry after scolding them for a few words. I don’t know who I learned this from!
Zhao Kang stopped Xiao Xuance who was about to take action, laughed twice and looked at the officials opposite.
"I, Zhao Kang, accept your kindness. However, when His Majesty granted me the title of Marquis, I did not accept the gift. Naturally, I will not accept it today."
Zhao Kang sneered: "So, I'd better ask the ministers to take these valuable gifts back. I, Zhao Kang, can't bear them."
Lin Yu frowned, and before he could speak, Xian Jinsheng coughed.
Lin Yu stepped back knowingly. Taifu Zhao Jinsheng glanced at Zhao Kang who was shaking in the rocking chair opposite him and suddenly laughed.
Then he said: "Master National Preceptor, you don't have to accept gifts from others, but this gift from me is not small. You might as well take a look at it before talking."
Zhao Kang chuckled: "Then please, Master Taifu, open Zhao Kang's eyes today! Let's see what kind of precious gift it is."
Zhao Jinsheng waved, and an official behind him came forward and opened the box in his hand.
Xiao Xuance craned his neck to take a look and was stunned.
He thought it was some expensive gift, but he saw that the box only contained a jug of wine and two wine glasses.
Zhao Jinsheng looked at Zhao Kang, took out the wine glass, poured two glasses of wine, and placed one glass in front of him.
Pushing a glass in front of Zhao Kang, he said calmly: "Back then, the Imperial Master was appointed as the Imperial Master of Daqian by His Majesty. The Imperial Master poured a glass of wine for me and the Grand Master."
"Today I will also pour a glass of wine for the Imperial Preceptor. All the past events are contained in this glass of wine. I wonder if the Imperial Preceptor is interested."
Zhao Kang smiled and reached out to pick up the wine glass. Zhao Jinsheng and Lin Yu both smiled at the same time.
It seems that this guy still knows what it means to be a man who knows the current affairs.
But Zhao Kang did not drink it. He just looked at Zhao Jinsheng and others and said with a smile: "Master Taifu, I want to know how many family members are in this glass of wine?"
Zhao Jinsheng raised his eyebrows: "The Imperial Master will naturally know in the future that after drinking this wine and everyone eating at the same table, whatever business the Imperial Master wants to do and how much wealth he wants to make will be smooth sailing."
Zhao Kang raised his head and said calmly: "Master Taifu, do you think you are more important to me, Zhao Kang, or is money more important to me?"
Lin Yu frowned: "What do you mean, Master National Preceptor?"
Zhao Jinsheng narrowed his eyes: "I think we are more important to the Imperial Master."
Zhao Kang shook his head, and Zhao Jinsheng was stunned: "Is that money?"
Zhao Kang shook his head again, then threw away the wine glass in his hand, his voice gradually getting colder: "Neither money nor you are important to me, but not having you is very important to me!"
In an instant, Zhao Jinsheng's face changed drastically and he said angrily: "Zhao Kang! Do you know what you are talking about!"
He understood what Zhao Kang meant!
This guy actually wants to touch the family!
Zhao Kang smiled: "Master Taifu, there is no need to be so excited. A new era will come with the new year. Whoever wants to block the pace of history will only become a bloody corpse under the wheel of history!"
"You can't see the changes in the general trend of the world! But I, Zhao Kang, can see it!"
"The glass of wine I poured for you before will not be counted after tonight. I also hope that Mr. Zhao will think carefully and don't let the huge Zhao family become your burial object. Please leave slowly without sending it away!"
Zhao Kang issued an order to expel guests, and Zhao Jin's face was livid with anger and his whole body was trembling.
Suddenly he turned around and shouted: "Let's go!"
Lin Yu and others followed him out without knowing what was going on. When they reached the door, Zhao Jinsheng suddenly stopped and turned his back to Zhao Kang and Xiao Xuance. His voice was cold: "Zhao Kang, you will regret it. You can't even imagine how big we are."
energy!"
Zhao Kang sneered: "Thank you, Mr. Taifu, for reminding me. I wish you good luck."
All the officials left in confusion. Xiao Xuance scratched his head and said confusedly: "What's wrong with Mr. Zhao? Why are you so angry all of a sudden?"
Zhao Kang innocently spread his hands: "How do I know? Maybe he found out that his son is not his biological son?"
His Highness the Prince couldn't hold it back and laughed out loud: "You old Zhao, you are too damaged."
"Okay, pack up, close the shop, go home and sleep."
Xiao Xuance said hurriedly: "Your sister, we haven't talked about the business yet. Do you have any idea?"
"It does not matter!"
…
After leaving Zhao Kang, Zhao Jinsheng and others were silent. Lin Yu couldn't hold back and asked: "Master, what exactly is Zhao Kang going to do?"
"What to do?"
Zhao Jinsheng snorted angrily: "He is so cowardly! This bastard actually wants to touch the family!"
Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
Lin Yu burst out laughing after hearing this, while Zhao Jinsheng frowned.
"why are you laughing!"
Lin Yu laughed and said: "Master, I'm laughing at Zhao Kang. He doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth, but he dares to have such an idea!"
Zhao Jinsheng hummed, and Lin Yu's smile did not diminish: "If that's the case, then Zhao Kang is looking for death! Even if we don't take action, there will be countless people who want him dead. I really want to see what he is doing
How to shake our major clans!"
The other officials also understood at this moment that Zhao Kang, who had a fierce look on his face, was going to target the aristocratic family, and that would mean fighting them to the death.
If they were still afraid of Zhao Kang's power in the past, but now that they are here, they can no longer control it.
Zhao Jinsheng said: "Having said that, you should not be careless. Zhao Kang's dog thief is treacherous and insidious, so you still have to be careful and careful."
