Chapter 291: Helping to get promoted

"Speaking of which, I was originally going to reward you with a jade ruyi, but unfortunately it was accidentally broken by the person on duty in the storehouse a few days ago. Although it can be restored by inlaying gold with jade, the meaning is unclear. Let's forget about it this time. When I get it again, I will reward it to Old Madam Yan."

Minister Yan had been an official for many years and had become a fox. Hearing Qin Yishu's words hinting that the marriage would not be possible this time and that he would wait until he met a better person in the future, he gritted his teeth and bowed, "Thank you for your grace. I am deeply grateful. I would like to thank the emperor for his concern and care on behalf of my mother. I would also like to say something inappropriate in this palace. On my mother's birthday, I hope you will come to my house for some simple meals."

"Of course, of course."

"Lord Yan is so filial, it's commendable..."

“…”

The atmosphere in the hall became much more cheerful because of this incident.

Qin Yishu stood up upon seeing this.

"Retreat!"

Amid the eunuch's loud shouts, all the court officials came out of the main hall door and walked slowly outside.

They gathered in groups of three or four, whispering to each other.

Qin Peiyou and He Yanxiu looked relaxed at this time, and their steps were brisk as they walked side by side.

Seeing that Lord Wang was in front, He Yanxiu walked over quickly, "Lord Wang."

"Minister He." Elder Wang bowed slightly. Seeing that He Yanxiu had something to say, he spoke first, "Minister He, there is no need to say more. I have no other purpose, and I do not want to violate the ancestral teachings and step into the fight. It's just that good and evil will be rewarded, and I want good people to have good results, that's all."

"What Elder Wang said is absolutely right." He Yanxiu nodded and bowed, "Take care, Elder Wang."

After Lord Wang walked away with his hands behind his back, taking steady steps and keeping a distance from strangers, He Yanxiu stood up and heard the Duke of Anguo's hearty laughter.

"This old man still has such a bad temper." Duke Anguo stroked his beard and smiled. "But I heard that although this old man is usually upright and never does anything with selfish motives, he made an exception for his beloved daughter this time. It is really rare."

"Ms. Wang?"

He Yanxiu raised his eyebrows, "I heard that Lord Wang had a daughter in his old age and doted on this daughter. However, Miss Wang met a bad man and divorced him and moved back to the capital. However, because she didn't like being disturbed by many people and had to take care of her young children, she lived in a farm outside the capital for a long time."

"That's right." Duke Anguo nodded, "It's just that Miss Wang had a dispute with her mother-in-law and husband, and she had a miscarriage on her way back to the capital. Fortunately, she met a noble person who helped her on the way, and she was able to get back from the brink of death."

Noble person?

Speaking of which, when he was in Hedong Prefecture, Su Yujin also treated a woman who had a difficult childbirth. At that time, she said that the woman seemed to be surnamed Wang...

After thinking for a moment, He Yanxiu suddenly realized, "So that's it."

Duke Anguo glanced at He Yanxiu and asked, "Minister He is not as well-informed as an old man like me?"

"Well, you young people have a shallow foundation and few connections. It's normal that you can't do many things. I'll give you some pointers when I have time."

Hearing Duke Anguo say this, He Yanxiu and Qin Peiyou looked at each other.

Is this to help them get promoted? "Why, you're not happy?" Duke Anguo raised his eyebrows.

"How could that be? I am very happy that Duke Anguo is willing to give me some advice." He Yanxiu hurriedly bowed and said, "I am just a little flattered and can't believe it."

"You are young after all, and you have not seen many storms and waves. You are so scared of such a small thing. I, an old man, have always been casual in doing things. In many things, I help my relatives instead of others. You will get used to it slowly in the future."

Duke Anguo stood with his hands behind his back, smiling in a cunning, kind and even somewhat complacent manner.

"Yes." He Yanxiu knew the relationship between Duke Anguo and Su Yujin, so he smiled and agreed, and then said, "Prince Jia didn't seem to come out."

He Yanxiu had never expected that Prince Jia would say something today about requesting a title for Su Yujin.

"Prince Jia has been traveling for several months and has just returned to the capital. He probably has a lot to say to the emperor." Duke Anguo said with a smile, "I heard that Prince Jia gained a lot from his travels this time and even found a confidante. He probably wants the emperor to grant him a marriage."

He Yanxiu, "..."

The Duke of Anguo's spies are indeed extraordinary.

He even knows this kind of thing so clearly.

"Oh?" Qin Peiyou was curious. "The emperor's uncle has a picky eye. In the early years, he even looked down on the princess of a neighboring country and refused to agree to any marriage proposal. But now he has someone he likes? I really want to know what kind of person the emperor's uncle likes."

"It is said that he is just like Prince Jia, unique and different from others. Speaking of which, Minister He probably knows this person." Duke Anguo said.

"Your subordinate knows?"

"Yes." Duke Anguo nodded, "This person seems to be the aunt of the wife of Qu Zhiwen, the governor of Hedong."

It’s Kang?

He Yanxiu was surprised again, "It turned out to be her. I met her once when I was in charge of the Mint in Hedong Prefecture a few years ago. She is indeed different from ordinary people..."

Prince Jia was going to marry Kang, and Kang and Su Yujin were business partners. In order to please the beauty, Prince Jia would naturally speak for Su Yujin, which was why he made those remarks in the hall.

If you put it this way...

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Lord Wang saved his beloved daughter because Su Yujin saved her.

Duke Anguo adopted Su Yujin as his adopted daughter because she saved his precious granddaughter.

Even Wu Xingyu spoke in agreement in the hall. Not only because of the poison in his stomach, but also because he truly admired Su Yujin's medical skills and tenacity.

This county lady seemed to be obtained by him for Su Yujin, but in fact...

She earned it through her medical skills and kindness.

The title of Lady of Ping'an County is well deserved.

He Yanxiu curled his lips, smiled brightly, and walked out with Duke Anguo and Qin Peiyou.

Qin Peiyuan and Qin Peiheng walked slowly at the back, with gloomy faces and gritting their teeth.

His people were repeatedly impeached and punished, while the people of the third brother and He Yanxiu were rising rapidly and the forces they were winning over were growing stronger and stronger.

Prince Jia, Lord Wang, Duke Anguo...all very good!

Since you have made your attitude clear, we will be irreconcilable from now on. We will slowly settle this account! "Your Highness." King Qin Lingshu of Yue came closer.

"Uncle." Qin Peiyuan bowed upon seeing this.

The King of Yue is the one in power among the princes today. Unlike the idle prince Prince Jia, the King of Yue manages maritime trade, tributes from various dynasties, and the coming and going of merchant ships, so he holds great power.

Moreover, the King of Yue usually had no dealings with the third brother and the He family, but he was always quite polite to the eldest prince.

Qin Peiyuan naturally had some respect for this imperial uncle.

"Your Highness, don't worry. It's just a temporary gain or loss. Those who want to accomplish great things need to endure humiliation and not be fussy about trivial matters." Qin Lingshu said.

His tone was gentle, and his words were full of encouragement. He even reached out and patted Qin Peiyuan's shoulder to show his affection.

Qin Peiyuan felt that the distance between him and the emperor's uncle had shortened a lot, especially when he heard the words "gains and losses" and "achieving great things" in his words, he became interested.
