Zhao Kang left, but Wang San was still eating the delicacies on the table in the private room. The owner of the shop bowed and walked in: "Sir, is the negotiation done?"
Wang San hummed: "The deal is done, but I also underestimated this guy. This guy is a ghost. I'm afraid he already knows who I am by now."
"Can he be capable of this?" the shop owner was surprised.
Wang San didn't say anything but just twirled the wine glass. Zhao Kang finally asked him if he could eat the goods from Yuanjiang County, which was clearly asking him about his identity.
If I hadn't guessed it, I wouldn't have confirmed it like this.
"I was wrong before. This guy is very smart. Tell your people not to keep an eye on Yuanjiang County." Wang San said.
The shop owner hesitated for a moment before saying: "This will not give Yuanjiang County any control."
"If you want to control a smart person, you can't let him feel controlled. Zhao Kang is a talent. Since Her Majesty the Empress doesn't want him, then I want him."
Wang San smiled slightly: "In addition, let me tell your master that he knows that he has been wronged today and will not cause trouble to Zhao Kang during this period."
"I understand, villain."
Wang San stood up: "You also go and prepare, wait for the goods to arrive."
"As commanded."
…
Without his official status and no need to travel both inside and outside the palace, Zhao Kang was completely free and at ease, and he didn't bother to get involved in hygiene matters anymore. Now he can show off his skills to earn money by holding a thigh.
After wandering around the city until it was almost dark, Zhao Kang returned to his residence. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw the pretty maid Lu Yuan.
"Master Zhao." Lu Yuan greeted.
Zhao Kang snorted: "Why should I return it to you, Master Zhao? I am a civilian now."
Green Mandarin curled up his lips and said, "If you're angry, don't vent it on me."
Thinking of what His Majesty had told him, Lu Yuan pointed to the things piled up around him and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty rewarded Mr. Zhao for this. Look, this silk is the best in Qingzhou. It's fifty taels per piece. Usually it's only second grade."
Only senior officials can use it."
"Oh, how can I bear this?"
Zhao Kang seemed to be shocked: "Thank you for your kindness, Miss Green Mandarin, please take it back as soon as possible. This is only for second-grade officials. Zhao Kang is a civilian now. How dare he do that?"
, don’t wait until someone says the following is wrong, take it away quickly.”
"Master Zhao! Don't drive me away!"
Carrying the pile of rewards, Zhao Kang pushed the green mandarin duck out and pushed it out of the door. Zhao Kang bowed and said: "Zhao Kang has thanked your majesty for the reward. Please go back and tell your majesty that Zhao Kang is returning to his hometown and will no longer be a chamber pot."
, don’t call me a bullshit official in the future anymore, it’s simply a shame for me to be an official with those bastards.”
The clay figurine is still angry, let alone Mr. Zhao.
Give me some rags, just to make me feel better and want to eat shit!
The door was closed with a bang, and Green Duck stamped her feet angrily.
Zhao Kang actually dares to throw away His Majesty's reward. Just wait and see if I don't report it to you when I get back.
In the harem.
Her Majesty the Empress did not go to bed, but was sitting in the pavilion of the Royal Garden, looking at the flower garden in front of her in a daze, but what she was thinking about was the look in Zhao Kang's eyes when he left and looked at her, and the tall and straight figure when he walked out of the hall.
"Your Majesty, it's getting dark, go back and have a rest." The eunuch manager on the side advised him distressedly.
"It's still early, hasn't Green Mandarin come back yet?" Xiao Linglong said.
When the voice fell, Green Yuan had already returned with the pile of rewards: "Your Majesty."
Xiao Linglong frowned and looked at the box of treasures she picked: "You haven't seen him?"
Green Mandarin said angrily: "Your Majesty, this Zhao Kang is so ungrateful that he kicked me out."
"Kicked out?" Xiao Linglong felt a little uncomfortable.
Green Yuan: "Yeah, they said he is going back to his hometown, will no longer work as a chamber pot here, and will no longer be an official in the future. It is really hateful, and he should be arrested and beaten."
"Chamber pot? That's what he said!" Xiao Linglong stood up angrily.
What is a chamber pot?
It's important when you need it, but it makes you sick when you don't need it. It's like a chamber pot.
Green Yuan nodded, and it took a while for Xiao Linglong to speak: "Forget it, let's go down."
I don't know why, but Green Yuan always feels that His Majesty is like a deflated rubber ball.
After leaving the courtyard alone, the Empress came to the courtyard of the East Palace. Xiao Xuance, with a bruised nose and a swollen face, wrote something. This time he was not pretending.
Damn it, who would have thought that His Majesty would give me such a beating right after he went to court!
At this moment, His Royal Highness just wanted to finish things tonight so that he could complain to Zhao Kang tomorrow. When he heard the maids saying that His Majesty was here, Xiao Xuance shook his body and straightened his posture of holding the pen.
"What did you write?"
Xiao Linglong spoke coldly.
Xiao Xuance quickly turned around and scratched his head before replying: "Your Majesty, I didn't write anything. I just heard that Zhao Kang wrote two lines of poetry during the court meeting, which felt pretty good."
"Poetry?" Xiao Linglong came closer and looked at the poems on the rice paper by the light.
It's those two sentences. Who knows that every meal on the plate is hard work.
Simple, straightforward and easy to understand.
"Not bad." Xiao Linglong hummed, and the shadow of Zhao Kang flashed in her mind.
His Highness the Prince nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "No, during the afternoon class in the Master's Study Room, the old master said that Zhao Kang was a bastard, but the poem was indeed written well, but I don't know if it was written by him, and it only had two sentences.
."
Hearing what Xiao Xuance said, Her Majesty the Empress felt even more irritated. She turned around and left without saying anything. Her Majesty the Prince was very happy to see her.
I really don’t know who offended her again, but fortunately I didn’t beat myself up again.
Early the next morning, before dawn, Zhao Kang packed up and bowed.
He and Lu Yuan were not just talking about returning home. Since he decided to cooperate with Wang San, he had to hurry up and money would not wait for anyone.
Carrying the package, he came to the carriage shop and ordered a carriage. Zhao Kang hurried back to Yuanjiang County. Except for the Imperial City, the air there was really clear.
Three poles in the sun finally came down to court.
Wearing veils, Xiao Linglong and Xiao Xuance stood in front of the closed door. The doorman looked at them and said, "Young lady, Mr. Zhao left early in the morning. Why don't you come back later?"
"He didn't say where he was going?" Xiao Linglong asked hurriedly.
The boy shook his head: "I didn't say."
"This guy actually ran away like that. It's so irresponsible. I also want to ask how to deal with the next hygiene situation. Really!" Xiao Xuance said angrily, not paying attention to the dim eyes around him.
Four days in a row at full speed.
Zhao Kang finally saw the city gate of Yuanjiang County, and after asking the coachman to go back, he got off the car and walked. The city guard was startled when he saw him and quickly rubbed his eyes.
After confirming that it was Zhao Kang, he shouted ecstatically: "The master is back! The master is back!"
There was a loud howl, which alerted many vendors near the city. Everyone rushed out in a hurry, and when they saw Zhao Kang, they all surrounded him.
Everyone is happy and ecstatic from the bottom of their hearts!
This is my home!
Zhao Kang was in an equally beautiful mood and threw his baggage to the sky: "Diao Min, I'm back!"
