"If you have the foundation to start a memorial, if you don't have the foundation to retreat from the court——"
The great eunuch shouted with a drake voice. The ministers were about to kneel down but were stopped by the emperor, "Yesterday I heard the queen praise a female family member who used grass as a hairpin instead of gold, silver, pearls and jade, which greatly saved money on hair." The expenditure on decorations helped the soldiers who worked hard to guard the border get more treatment, which was really a model for women at that time."
The gray-haired Han Xiang smoothed his beard, glanced at the civil and military officials of the court behind him, and nodded happily, "There are talented people from generation to generation, and each has led the way for hundreds of years. In two years, the old minister can finally retire with peace of mind. .”
"I'm afraid I won't be able to do what the teacher wishes." The emperor smiled.
All the ministers in the court also woke up and pricked up their ears to listen. Qin Zhun, the new top scholar and current scholar of the Hanlin Academy, who was standing in the last row of civil servants, also poked his head out.
"What do you mean by your Majesty's words?" asked Han Xiang.
"Teacher, you still want to pretend to be stupid with me. You have such a beautiful granddaughter at home and you are hiding it from others. Are you afraid that too many people will propose marriage and cross your already weather-beaten threshold? Hahahaha." The emperor burst into laughter, and all the ministers laughed in agreement.
"Your Majesty is talking about the veteran's adopted granddaughter Han Yao?"
The emperor laughed so much that his stomach hurt.
The eldest eunuch pinched his orchid fingers and waved to Prime Minister Han, "No, no, sir, I misunderstood. What your majesty is talking about is your newly found granddaughter, Second Miss Han You."
"Han Yu?" Han Xiang looked at his son Han Shangshu behind him with a puzzled face.
Han Shangshu also looked back and did not see his eldest son Han Yuan. He then remembered that he had not returned from his inspection for His Majesty. He could only explain to his father himself, "Reply to my father, but something happened. It has been more than half a month since I found him." Yes, I saw you were busy so I didn’t tell you. I’ve already seen her. She is a graceful lady.”
Prime Minister Han glanced at him, and Han Shangshu shrank his neck with guilt. The Shangshu of the Ministry of Personnel, who was fearless, was actually afraid of his own white-haired father. It was indeed suppressed by his bloodline.
"It's good to have it figured out. It's good to have it figured out." The emperor smiled happily and said, "The teacher is indeed a tiger father who has no dog sons or grandsons. Even his granddaughter is excellent. The Minister of Rites has resigned due to his old age, and will wait for Han Shizhong to return from his inspection tour. Then he will be promoted to the position of minister."
Han Shangshu knelt down to thank his eldest son.
The emperor added: "Han You is a girl. It is not convenient for me to give you anything, so I will let the queen decide the reward during the marriage recognition banquet. However, in order to prevent the suitor from crossing the threshold of the teacher's family, I can give you a new one, haha Haha." After saying that, he laughed again.
Prime Minister Han's face was a little red. He was used to being serious and old-fashioned. It was the first time that the emperor made fun of him and he was a little uncomfortable.
Qin Zhun, who was in the last row, heard everything clearly, especially when he heard Han Yu's name, his eyes moved quickly, and he didn't know what Xiao Jiujiu was thinking about.
——
"Sister Qiu, Sister Qiu, it's coming, it's coming!" Grandma Xie was born with a loud voice, but now she is more like a loudspeaker when she encounters happy things.
Han Yu finally slept in, but was woken up by her. Her eyes were so dark that Dongfeng didn't dare to step forward, for fear of being scolded as a punching bag and then punished by not eating sweets for three days.
Aunt Xie was quite blind. She pulled Han Hao up from the bed and stuffed a bag full of silver into her arms, "This is what Dongli Pavilion earned today, a full three thousand taels. Old man The slave specially exchanged it for silver and let the girl count it for fun."
Han Hao suddenly woke up, poured all the money on the wooden couch, took the largest ingot and bit it, which made his tooth hurt, and he felt really beautiful.
Everyone in the room, one by one, received the reward, and they were so happy that they couldn't open their mouths from ear to ear.
At the banquet, the Queen praised Han Tiao, which made all the female family members jealous. They came to ask for Tongcao hairpins. Han Tiao immediately seized the business opportunity and quickly opened a shop in the busiest place. He used the Queen's praise as a gimmick to start his business. It became an instant hit upon opening.
Of course, these things were done secretly from the family. The noble family was too noble and never touched the merchants' belongings. Naturally, the female family members were not allowed to touch it, so they could only do it secretly.
"Second girl, I have your greetings." The concierge did not enter the second gate of the Ciyuan, but just stood in the courtyard and shouted.
Dongfeng Qinggong was good. He rose up on the wind, took the greeting card from the boy's hand, stepped back, and handed the greeting card into Han Yu's hand.
Looking at the familiar handwriting on it, Han Miao dug his nails into his flesh, and blood dripped on the greeting card and blurred the handwriting.
The burning sensation of fire, the cramping sensation of poison, and the suffocating betrayal all came over him, and Ou seemed to be experiencing all the pain in his previous life all over again.
It’s true that there is a road to heaven but you won’t take it, and there is no door to hell but you have to break through it. This time you will never come back!
Aunt Xie stepped forward and opened Han Min's hand distressedly, shouting for someone to call the government doctor. How could her daughter's green and jade hands have scars? "Girl, what's the matter that you can't ask the old slave to handle? Why hurt her?" As for me, the frostbite has finally gone away, but it would be bad if some nail marks are left."
"Girl, do you hate people who send greeting cards? I'll kill for you, and you can give me candy, okay?" Dongfeng tilted his head and asked.
Han Yu was amused by her and shook his head helplessly, "My silly Dongfeng, if only things were as simple as you thought." A court official died in her hands, which was simply a provocation to the imperial power. .
"Does the girl know the person outside the door?"
"I know him. He is the number one scholar in the new department, and he is now Qin Zhun, a scholar in the Hanlin Academy." Han Yu nodded and squeezed out a few tears. "When I was in the country, I lived with my adoptive mother. We were two weak women. I was often bullied, especially by him, and was forced to write a marriage contract. I guess today is the day when someone came to ask for the fulfillment of the engagement... wu wu wu..."
She burst into tears as if she couldn't bear it any longer, and her crying was heartbreaking.
Angrily, Grandma Xie yelled, "Bah! This stepmother-in-law doesn't even know what she is. A man with a high official position dares to come to ask for a hand in marriage. I don't want to call him a bastard!"
"Mommy..." Han Yu pretended to stop him, "Mommy scolding him can really make me vent my anger. But after all, he is an official, and he is also the number one scholar. What should I do if His Majesty reuses him?"
Grandma Xie rolled her eyes and said, "Then I'll go find Brother Jin. Brother Jin is his immediate boss. Give him some good shoes and exclude him so that he has no chance of promotion."
Han Yu covered his lips and snickered, just in time to tell Han Jin through Nanny Xie's mouth. With the relationship between Han Jin and Han Yao, if Han Jin knew about it, would Han Yaoli still be far away if he knew about it?
In order to cause trouble for himself, how could Han Yao let go of this opportunity.
As long as the two of them have a relationship, they will never be separated in this life, and they are destined to have a life-or-death ending.
