"Now that I've suffered a loss, what's the point of being unconvinced?"
Empress Dowager Sun sneered and said directly, "If you have the guts, go and get those things back."
"I..." This sentence made Sun Kejian speechless and unable to speak.
He indeed had the courage to do business with the barbarians on the grassland.
But if you want to do something, forget it.
With my small body, I can't even make a single move.
In the end, Sun Kejian could only sternly say, "One day, I will make those grassland barbarians pay the price!"
Hearing this, Empress Dowager Sun shook her head and couldn't help sighing. She knew that although her cousin was unreliable, it would be difficult to pull him back once he made a decision. She had no choice but to say, "Then if you don't go back, what can you do in the capital?"
She believed that the reason why the other party was unwilling to go back was that he did not want to face the accusations of his uncle and the elders of the clan.
The second reason is that it was my first time in Central China and I found everything interesting.
When you get tired of playing, you will go back.
It's nothing.
Anyway, I have my own people to look after me in the capital, so as long as I don’t cause any trouble, staying there for a year or two won’t be a problem.
But soon, her cousin's next words made her completely confused.
Zhang Kejian's eyes lit up at this moment. He stood up and said, "Of course I want to be an official. My Sun family has been doing business for generations, and no one has ever served as an official in the court. I want to be the first!"
Upon hearing this, Empress Dowager Sun twitched her lips and could no longer maintain her usual dignity.
Even the old maid who had been serving beside her opened her mouth and was completely speechless.
I didn’t expect that this young master really wanted to be an official!
"No, absolutely not!"
Empress Dowager Sun spoke up and directly refused: "With your current status and not having passed the imperial examination, you cannot become an official. I don't have the ability to let you become an official!"
"Why not?" Sun Kejian was a little anxious and couldn't help but say, "You are the Queen Mother now, and the current emperor is your legitimate son. It's just a matter of your words to let me become an official, isn't it?"
Look at what he said, it's as if the court is his own home...
"So what if I'm the Queen Mother?"
"I can promise you everything else, but not this."
"Besides, you are not cut out for being an official. Returning to Yandi and taking over the family business is your only option. Forget about anything else!"
Empress Dowager Sun spoke, and now her relationship with the emperor had finally eased a little.
If at this time, we ask for an official position for a member of the Sun family, and a direct descendant of them, what would the emperor think?
"I..." Sun Kejian was suddenly speechless.
What's so good about inheriting a family business? Isn't it all about making money?
Over the years, he has become tired of facing the huge amounts of silver every day and doesn't even want to look at them!
So in his heart, he did not give up this idea.
I feel that when it comes to being an official, you have to rely on yourself.
"His Majesty has arrived!"
Just at this moment, Wang Jin's voice came from outside.
The next moment, Empress Dowager Sun was startled and stood up immediately, a little surprised.
Although the emperor came to the Cining Palace more often than when he first ascended the throne.
But it’s still not enough. Why did it suddenly come today?
Or when I meet my mother's family.
However, she did not hesitate and signaled the palace maids to go and greet him. At the same time, she looked at Sun Kejian and said directly, "The emperor is here. Remember your rules. Also, you are not allowed to speak without my permission!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Kejian nodded repeatedly, but curiosity could not help but appear in his eyes.
In Yan, he had seen all kinds of dignitaries, but he had no idea what the supreme ruler, the Emperor of Wei, looked like.
At the same time, I also thought, if I directly talk to His Majesty the Emperor about becoming an official, would he agree?
After thinking about it for a while, he finally decided to give it a try.
There's no way, the Queen Mother said it's impossible.
Do you have a way?
It seems that the opportunity to become an official directly can only be discussed now.
soon.
Wei Yunyi led a group of eunuchs into the Cining Palace.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw the Queen Mother and a middle-aged man with shifty eyes.
I guess this is the Queen Mother's cousin.
Although it was just a cursory observation, I felt that this might be a talent. However, with this thought, I didn't think too much about other things.
Immediately, he bowed slightly and said, "The Queen Mother is well."
"I'm fine."
Empress Dowager Sun nodded, a smile spreading across her face. She hesitated for a moment, but finally said, "This is my cousin, Sun Kejian. Sun Kejian, why don't you come and pay your respects to the Emperor?"
Sun Kejian?
This name, why is it so...
Wei Yunyi frowned, feeling something was wrong.
But just as he was thinking, Sun Kejian's reaction made him stunned.
"I, Sun Kejian, greet Your Majesty. Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
At this moment, Sun Kejian not only shouted "Long live the emperor", but also knelt on the ground and performed the grand ceremony of three kneelings and nine kowtows.
Although he himself didn't know whether this was in accordance with the rules, he had read some stories that said that when meeting the emperor, one must perform solemn etiquette. He also felt that after all, he would be asking for an official position, so at this time, his attitude must be correct!
This action stunned everyone present, including Empress Dowager Sun.
Although this is the current emperor, the Son of Heaven.
But Sun Kejian, after all, can be considered a royal relative.
Even if a businessman's status isn't very high, he shouldn't be like this, right? This is astonishing.
