Kneeling on the legendary gold brick, Shen Lie couldn't help but feel uneasy. No matter how good his mental quality was, he still felt guilty.
a long time.
Only then came a graceful and magnetic female voice: "Get up."
What surprised Shen Lie was that the Empress Dowager's voice was very soft, soft, and pleasant to the ear, but it also revealed a hint of majesty developed from having been in charge of the harem for a long time.
Shen Lie just got up.
The magnetic female voice said again: "Raise your head and let me see you."
Shen Lie raised his head in response, lowered his eyes, and quickly glanced with the corner of his eye. With this glance, he saw a beautiful middle-aged woman wearing a bright red palace dress beside the high Luan throne.
There was actually an old eunuch standing there.
It's Feng Bao.
At this moment, the chief eunuch Feng Baozai looked over with encouraging eyes, and the warm smile on the old face made Shen Lie's anxiety slightly lessen.
During the conversation.
Feng Bao coughed lightly and took the initiative to relieve Shen Lie: "Shen Lie, the Queen Mother Shengci is here, so you don't have to be too reserved. You can answer whatever the Queen Mother asks you."
Shen Lie hurriedly lowered his head and said respectfully: "Yes."
Then the soft, magnetic and sweet voice of the graceful and beautiful Empress Dowager came to my ears: "Look at her face, she looks dignified."
Shen Lie breathed a sigh of relief again and quickly cheered up. At the same time, a hint of enlightenment emerged in his heart.
I'm afraid that his life will be rewritten from today on.
So under the empress dowager's very detailed questioning, Shen Lie cheered up and explained in detail how he met the emperor and how they went to the brothel together...
Why did he fall into the emperor's trap because of Xuan'er, the top prostitute in the brothel, and then he was called into Xiyuan by the emperor to practice martial arts with him and fool around around.
At this moment, Shen Lie's heart was as bright as a bright mirror. Don't hide it at this time. Anyway, he said something. For a while, he was the only voice in the hall.
As Shen Lie spoke in detail, there was also a pen-writing eunuch, holding a brush and writing down quickly. It seemed that this was also the rule of the Tian family.
Everything about the emperor must be recorded.
Until Shen Lie finished speaking, he stood aside with his head bowed, showing off his superb acting skills that he had honed for many years, as if there were four big characters engraved on his forehead.
Honest Bajiao!
The hall became quiet again.
a long time.
Then I remembered the Empress Dowager's sigh: "Hey...it seems like you are an honest person."
Shen Lie breathed a sigh of relief again and secretly wiped the sweat from his palms. Now even the Queen Mother praised him for being honest. Isn't this good news?
The Queen Mother is so wise.
I was wronged, villain!
At this time, Feng Bao coughed again from the side and responded: "The Queen Mother is wise, I have some friendship with this person. This person is not a cunning person, but also has some talent."
As soon as he heard this, Shen Lie's heart widened again, and he wished he could rush over to hug the chief eunuch and kiss him hard for a few times.
With Feng Bao testifying, Shen Lie felt that the pressure on his body had suddenly disappeared. Speaking of which, he was still in Yun'er's favor.
Passed!
As the atmosphere in the hall relaxed.
Immediately afterwards, Feng Bao gave instructions to the eunuch who was writing: "Ahem...there is no need to record today's events in the daily notes."
The eunuch in charge of recording hurriedly responded, then put the rice paper densely written in his hand into a brazier and burned it.
As the rice paper turned into ashes.
The Queen Mother's soft and magnetic voice came to Shen Lie's ears again: "Shen Lie."
Shen Lie hurriedly bowed and said: "The grassroots are here."
The Queen Mother seemed a little tired and said softly: "Although the Emperor thinks highly of you, you should also have a sense of proportion in your heart. Do your duty well and must not cause trouble to the Tian family."
Shen Lie hurriedly said: "The common people obey the decree."
Then the Queen Mother waved her hand and said softly: "Go down."
Shen Lie bent over and backed away until he reached the entrance of the hall. When he turned around, he raised his head and looked at the high Luan Zuo.
I saw sitting on the Luan with the gorgeous phoenix pattern engraved on it, the middle-aged and stunningly beautiful woman in elegant palace attire, her fair and beautiful face seemed to be frowning.
This picture is mysterious, and there is an aura of dignity and majesty in the grace, which makes people dare not have even the slightest evil thought in their hearts.
Shen Lie only glanced at it briefly, then turned around and left knowingly.
He hurried out of the palace all the way.
Standing outside the Meridian Gate, Shen Lie dared to turn around and look at the tall vermilion palace gate, recalling the whole process of meeting the Queen Mother in his mind.
I felt a little proud in my heart.
It's a near miss.
Shen Lie gave his performance just eighty points.
at dusk.
Cheap square.
Under the gorgeous sunset, the simple building outside Chaoyang Gate is shrouded in golden light, and it looks like a scene in a painting.
After a busy day, Shen Lie called Zhang Jingxiu, Shen Lie, and Yun'er together for a meeting to tell everything about the emperor's intention to invest in the company.
"ah?"
Tian Hong trembled in fright, let out a loud cry, and jumped up from his chair, his eyes almost popping out of his head.
"What did you say?"
Zhang Jingxiu also covered his mouth in surprise, showing a look of disbelief.
The air is very solemn.
a long time.
Yun'er covered her mouth and shouted softly: "Master... is it true or not?"
Shen Lie had no choice but to grimace and helplessly spread his hands: "Would I joke about such a thing?"
After a period of silence, several partners and core members of Bianyifang looked at each other, and for a moment they didn’t know what to do.
What is this thing called?
Shen Lie also sighed.
"Not surprising."
The emperors of the Lao Zhu family really did a lot of deviant things. Some emperors enjoyed themselves in wars and made themselves generals.
Some led large armies to conquer in person. They wanted to establish a great career, but accidentally became prisoners and had to study abroad in Wala thousands of miles away.
Others opened shops in Xiyuan, pretending to be vendors themselves, and letting eunuchs and maids act as customers, playing house games every day.
What does it mean for our emperor to just do business with private friends?
A long time passed.
Yun'er looked at the young master with shining eyes and said softly: "Master, this is a good thing. Aren't our families going to be imperial merchants in the future?"
Looking at the cute little maid.
Zhang Jingxiu and Tian Hong were both speechless. Shen Lie looked strange again and nodded involuntarily. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed right.
After another moment.
When Shen Lie took out the money box that the emperor rewarded, he opened the money box and took out the one thousand taels of silver notes and the golden ingot.
Yun'er snatched it away, her elegant little face smiled like a flower, and she held the gold ingot in her white hands and took a bite.
Then the little maid let out a cry of surprise: "Oh, it's true!"
Shen Lie could only smile fondly: "Oh...hehe."
Tian Hong also giggled.
Zhang Jingxiu rolled his eyes angrily and spat softly: "It's all your fault. What did you do to such a good girl?"
Shen Lie was naturally dissatisfied and argued forcefully: "Is this also my fault?"
