Chapter 53: This Sky-High Wealth

Mo Cangyan felt someone behind the screen and knew it was Kong Lu, so he lowered his head slightly.

Seeing this, Zhang Siye thought he was scared and patted him on the shoulder with a laugh.

"Young man, I see that you are a very handsome man. If you agree to this, I can still find you a job, and..."

Having said this, he paused and laughed again.

"As you know, I am a student of Lord Kong. His daughter has entered the palace. It won't be long before he becomes the father-in-law of the emperor. I will introduce him to you then. You must accept this overwhelming wealth!"

Mo Cangyan smiled when he heard this.

I didn't expect that a small Kong Lu could be so capable. No wonder he could compete with Lin Youquan!

"Since the adults have said so, I am not a pedantic person. It is my honor to be valued by the adults!"

Seeing his kindness, Zhang Siye nodded with satisfaction.

Then he took the money bag that the servant had brought up and handed it to him: "There's a 100-liang note in it. You've never seen so much money before, have you? Take it!"

Mo Cangyan took the money with a smile: "Thank you, sir!"

Zhang Siye waved his hands.

"Then go back and pack your things. I will send someone to pick you up in two days. You are such a talented person, you can be a teacher for my son!"

Mo Cangyan nodded: "Thank you for your kindness, sir. I won't bother you anymore. I'll take my leave now!"

"Well, go ahead!"

It was the first time that Zhang Siye met such a virtuous person, and he was extremely satisfied.

After everyone left, Kong Lu came out from behind the screen, and Zhang Siye bowed to greet him.

"Teacher, everything is ready. This kid is very sensible and agreed to it in just two sentences!"

Kong Lu didn't say anything, but followed the man's figure for a long time.

Seeing Kong Lu frowning, Zhang Siye asked again, "What's wrong, teacher? Are you dissatisfied?"

Seeing the person walking away, Kong Lu withdrew his gaze and comforted himself.

"Impossible, he can't possibly be here?"

The first time Kong Lu saw the man, he felt that he looked very familiar, but after thinking for a long time he still couldn't figure out who he was. The only one he thought of was also rejected by him.

“…”

Zhang Siye was confused.

Kong Lu didn't plan to say more to him, he just smiled and said, "I'm always at ease with you doing things! But this incident is related to my son, there must be no accidents!"

"Yes, yes, I will do my best and never let the teacher down!"

Kong Lu nodded with satisfaction and looked back to the place where the man had just left.

Xiao Feng waited for a while, and when he saw his master finally come out, he hurried to greet him.

"Master, what's wrong?"

Mo Cangyan threw the purse in his hand into Xiao Feng's arms and said lightly: "They used one hundred taels to buy my article!"

Xiao Feng glanced at the banknotes in the bag and wondered, "Do they always use this method?"

Mo Cangyan glanced at the two large characters on the magnificent Zhang Mansion and said, "Let's talk about it when we get back!"

He turned around and left Zhang's house with Xiao Feng.

…

The next morning, upon hearing that Mo Cangyan had returned to the palace, Feng Xiyao happily ran over to find him.

Arriving at the Purple Gold Palace, she hurriedly asked.

"What's going on? Have you found any evidence?"

Mo Cangyan looked up at her and saw that she was smiling brightly, so he nodded.

"Well, they gave me 100 taels to buy my article!"

"One hundred taels!" Feng Xiyao frowned in disdain.

"They want to buy the emperor's article for just one hundred taels. They are so happy!"

Mo Cangyan lowered his eyes to look at her, and when he thought of her greedy personality, he slightly curled the corners of his mouth.

"So the Queen thinks one hundred taels is too little. I was thinking about how you traveled a long way to go with me to do things outside the palace, so I wanted to reward you with one hundred taels!!"

Feng Xiyao was so excited that her eyes jumped: "What? Give it to me!"

Seeing her so happy, Mo Cangyan withdrew his gaze and continued to review the memorial in his hand.

"Since the Queen disapproves, forget it!"

After hearing what the man said, Feng Xiyao couldn't stand it anymore. She immediately ran to his side and bent down in front of his desk.

"No, Your Majesty, you can't do this. I'm very happy and I don't mind!"

Mo Cangyan wanted to tease her, so he continued without raising his head.

"Then you were still complaining about giving up one hundred taels just now!"

Feng Xiyao explained: "I am not rejecting the 100 taels, but I feel that the 100 taels are not worthy of the emperor. After all, you are the most handsome, handsome and wealthy man in Daxia!!"

Feng Xiyao was speaking the truth when she said this, and Mo Cangyan felt happy because he didn't hear her complaining about himself in her heart.

He raised his thin lips and smiled: "It's true!"

Feng Xiyao nodded like a garlic: "Yes, it's real, more real than pearls!"

Mo Cangyan was so happy to be coaxed by her that he waved his hand.

"Since the Queen is working so hard, let Zhou Ninghai pick some pearls for you later!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I really love you so much, Your Majesty!"

When she heard that there was also Zhenzhu, Feng Xiyao smiled so hard that her teeth were showing.

[Last time, my treasure was stolen by someone who was so awful that I was sad for a long time. I never thought that I could earn it back now! ]

Hearing her start to scold him again, Mo Cangyan stopped writing.

"But it's a pity that I missed a lot of things during the few days I was out of the palace. I have a lot of things to do recently, so it may take a few days before I can give the things to the Queen!"

Upon hearing that her baby would take several days to come into her arms, Feng Xiyao stood up immediately.

"Your Majesty, government affairs are more important. Don't worry about reviewing. I will stay here with you and grind ink for you. I will not leave you until these things are done!"

As she spoke, she walked over resolutely, picked up the inkstone and started sharpening it seriously.

Unexpectedly, money was so attractive to Feng Xiyao. Mo Cangyan seemed to have discovered a new continent and knew how to control her. His mood improved and he lowered his head to continue reviewing the memorials.

At the door, seeing the emperor and empress enjoying themselves together, Eunuch Hai smiled like an auntie.

I said it myself, the Emperor and the Empress are definitely a match made in heaven, you're right!!

Night.

Feng Xiyao really couldn't stand Mo Cangyan's working attitude. For the whole day, except for eating and going to the toilet, the two of them were reviewing memorials.

Her hands were cramped from grinding ink.

Late at night, Feng Xiyao sat on a small stool and began to feel drowsy.

Not hearing the sound of her grinding ink, Mo Cangyan turned his head to look over, and saw that she had her eyes closed and her body was staggering.

Worried that she would fall headfirst, Mo Cangyan raised his hand to catch her head. Looking at the corner of the table that was so close to her head, he frowned.

Feng Xiyao thought she had found a pillow, so she raised her hand, hugged Mo Cangyan's arm, and fell into a deep sleep.

“…”

Mo Cangyan lowered his eyes to look at her, and seeing that she was sleeping soundly, he straightened her head, bent down to pick her up horizontally, walked to the bed and gently put her down.

After putting the person down, he turned around and wanted to continue working, but he was grabbed by Feng Xiyao, who murmured something.

"Money, you must give me money!"

Seeing that she was still thinking about this even when she fell asleep, Mo Cangyan laughed, his eyes fell on her gently licked red lips, his deep eyes trembled slightly, and his Adam's apple rolled!
