"Sister Lin!"
Su Wei stepped forward with a smile, and saw Lin Wanyue getting out of the car. She pulled Su Wei and said with a smile: "Sister... my father said that Su Yi has been very kind to my family, and asked me to come from Taiyang Mansion this time. I brought some gifts to thank Su Yi... Also..."
She glanced at Su Yi as she spoke, and then said, "Father said that I should stay in the capital and wait for my participation in the female history selection next month."
"You want to be a female historian?" Su Wei frowned slightly and said: "The palace gate is like a sea, with so many rules that you can't count, and accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger, so it's not as good as becoming a nun... Besides, you are now at the age of a flower. , what should you do if you meet the man you like?"
As she spoke, she glanced at Su Yi beside her, but Lin Wanyue said sadly: "I...it's probably very difficult for a person like me to meet someone like me. If I can't, I might as well just go for it." If the country contributes its efforts, this life will not be in vain.”
"Okay, okay... don't say such silly things. We'll talk about participating in the selection of women's history later. It's still some time anyway. By the way, we're going to Wang Shiyi's house later. Why don't you, sister, come with us?"
Su Wen said and looked at Su Yi: "How?"
"Huh? Haha... I have no objection to my sister making the decision."
When Lin Wanyue heard this, her pretty face turned red and she said, "Then...then I'll go take a look with my sister and Mr. Su?"
"Yep."
Su Wen knew Lin Wanyue's thoughts. She had feelings for Su Yi, but her brother seemed to be heartbroken after Bai Wan'er divorced her.
It seems like they don't want to mention this matter between men and women.
Lin Wanyue pointed to the carriage behind her at this time: "Mr. Su, I brought some gadgets in the carriage... My father asked me to bring them to you. Why don't you pick a few and bring them to Wang Shiyi's house, so as not to lose etiquette. .”
When Su Wen heard this, she nodded quickly: "That's great. I just prepared a hundred taels of gold for him and thought it was a bit small. Sister Lin was so thoughtful."
"Gold...a hundred taels? It's indeed missing. Oh, by the way...I have a jade Buddha here, which is pretty good."
Lin Wanyue hurriedly asked her entourage to take out a wooden box from the car, opened it and handed it to Su Yi and Su Wei. As the president of the Chamber of Commerce, Su Wei could tell the authenticity of any good thing at a glance and estimate its value.
"This is... carved from a whole piece of Hotan jade. It's great... Such a large jade is already priceless, and if I guessed correctly, this sword skill was also made by a famous master... It seems to be Jiangnan Baibaozhai Master, right?"
Lin Wanyue nodded slightly: "Sister Su still has good eyesight."
"With this Jade Buddha, I'm afraid we won't be outdone by others in Wang Shiyi's house today."
Chang'an City, Prince's Mansion.
The Five Surnames and Qi Wangs were originally a famous family in the Great Zhou Dynasty, with prominent strength and a powerful family. In addition, Wang Xingzu is now the right supplementary of the Zhongshu Province.
Although he was not Wu Siniang's close minister, he was definitely an important minister who walked in front of the emperor and participated in political affairs.
Wang Xingzu is now only in his early thirties, in his prime, with a bright future. He is now brothers-in-arms with Xue Bao, the empress's favorite, and Huangfu Yan, the crown prince of the Jin Dynasty.
Therefore, among the civil servants in the capital, almost no one dared not to give Wang Shiyi and Wang Xingzu face.
The carriage of the Great Zhou Chamber of Commerce stopped. Su Yi jumped out of the carriage and helped Su Wei and Lin Wanyue down. I saw many officials chatting with friends in front of the palace.
Behind him are the attendants who each brought large and small packages. It can be seen that they are all gifts for Wang Xingzu. There are mostly civilian officials here, and most of them are young officials.
Su Wei and Lin Wanyue, with Su Yi on the left and right, arrived in front of the mansion and immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Some of them were people that Su Yi had seen at Su Rong's reception banquet, but they all looked at Su Yi with cold eyes, and some of them looked unkind.
Those who didn't know Su Yi were curious and envious of him for being able to bring two beauties with him. After asking, they heard that he was a son-in-law from Taiyang Mansion and was divorced by his daughter's family, so they naturally showed contempt.
People were whispering to each other, seemingly ignoring the fact that Su Yi was going to become the new president and was being sealed.
Su Yi didn't care about these sarcastic words. Human nature is like this. He hates you and laughs at you.
As a group of officials walked into the main hall of the palace, there were already more than a dozen tables in front of the hall, which were prepared for ordinary officials.
In the main hall are the big shots with distinguished status and noble official positions.
For example, Xue Bao, Zuo Gonghe, and Huang Fuyan, the eldest son of the Jin Dynasty, although one of them has no real power and the other is just the prince's eldest son, they are so powerful that no one dares to underestimate them.
"coming!"
Huangfuyan, who was sitting next to Wang Xingzu, saw Su Yi walking into the courtyard at a glance. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Why is she here?"
"Who is that woman next to him?" Wang Xingzu was also attracted by Lin Wanyue's face that looked like a moonlit woman.
"snort!"
Huangfuyan snorted coldly: "Lin Wanyue, the daughter of Taiyang Prefect Lin."
"is her?"
Wang Xingzu glanced at the prince and said with a smile: "But the daughter of the Lin family that the prince wants to marry?"
Huangfuyan gritted his teeth and said coldly: "This bitch, I didn't expect that she would get together with Su Yi. Damn it!"
Seeing him like this, Wang Xingzu smiled slightly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, we have taken care of this person named Su today. By then, won't she be yours alone?"
Upon hearing this, Huangfuyan nodded and said nothing more. At this moment, the officials attending the banquet walked into the main hall one by one, congratulated the king on his relics, and presented gifts at the same time.
There are differences between officials and merchants. Although Su Huan's Great Zhou Chamber of Commerce is the leader of the imperial merchants, it is still inferior to the officials.
After all the officials paid their respects and congratulated them, it was the turn of Su Wei and the others.
Those officials who were already jealous of Su Yi sneered softly at this moment: "It is said that he stole the Bai family's money and came to the capital to see what unsavory things he can come up with."
"What kind of strength can someone who is a soft-boiled person have?"
Lin Wanyue naturally saw Huangfu Yan and couldn't help but glare at the prince who had tried to frame her father. The latter looked at her with a sneer, a hint of a lewd smile on his lips.
"Su Huan of the Great Zhou Chamber of Commerce..."
"Su Yi from Taiyang Mansion."
The two siblings bowed to congratulate each other, and Su Huan said, "I hope you will ride on the wind to break through the waves, and lift up a hundred-foot pole to rise high!"
After saying her congratulatory message, Su Wei stood up and said with a smile: "To express my gratitude, I, Su Yi, present a hundred taels of gold!"
The officials on the side murmured in a low voice: "I'm afraid this money belongs to the Bai family, right? Hahaha..."
Su Wei frowned slightly, glanced at them, and then said loudly: "There is another Jade Buddha!"
The servant of the palace opened the box of the Jade Buddha. Everyone was dumbfounded. The rumors stopped being true, but Su Yi didn't take it seriously.
It is better to strengthen yourself than to waste your energy on the public opinion.
But at this moment, one person could no longer sit still. Xue Bao, who was burning with jealousy, stood up and said coldly: "President Su, this golden and jade Buddha was really dedicated to Wang Shiyi by him, the Bai family's son-in-law. I'm afraid, he stole it as everyone said. You got the Bai family’s stolen goods, right? Huh? Hahaha..."
