There is also a gift of one hundred taels, which adds up to several million.
There are also silk, brocade and silk, which can be used as currency to exchange for other things.
This is also fortunately in the Tang Dynasty!
Otherwise, Zhuang Zhou would accept the gift like this.
There is no escape from life imprisonment.
Really, it’s so precious!
But Cheng Yaojin didn't care at all.
Of course, Zhuang Zhou could vaguely understand it.
I have made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, and the current emperor values me so much.
There is a promotion every now and then.
In a short time, they all became counts.
Anyone who cares will definitely realize what this means.
Therefore, it can be seen from the side that Cheng Yaojin has a very high political emotional intelligence.
This guy is really good at reading people's expressions.
"Duke Lu, your gift is too expensive, isn't it?"
This is of course a humble statement. Would you feel comfortable giving someone a small gift?
Cheng Yaojin laughed heartily again, patted Zhuang Zhou on the shoulder and said:
"What's the big deal? They're just some external things."
As he spoke, he seemed to think of something and his expression immediately became serious:
"Brother Zhuang, please don't call me Duke Lu anymore, it's too formal!
Well, just call me Brother Cheng."
"That won't do. We're too different!"
Zhuang Zhou explained:
"Cheng Chumo and I are sworn brothers. Logically, I should call you uncle."
"That's fine! Let's talk about our own affairs. You can call me uncle, and I'll still call you Brother Zhuang."
“…”
As he was speaking, someone else came:
"Boss Zhuang, Duke Zhao is here to present a gift!"
Duke of Zhao?
Isn’t this Changsun Wuji?
Good job!
Another real big boss.
"Boss Zhuang, Duke Liang is here to present a gift!"
Duke of Liang, this is Fang Xuanling.
"Boss Zhuang, Duke Chu is here to present a gift!"
All right!
This is Yuchi Jingde.
“…”
“…”
“…”
Then, all the bigwigs in the court came.
Almost all of them are bigwigs who followed Li Er out of the Prince of Qin's Mansion.
It is obvious that these people understood Li Er's thoughts.
This shows the great importance attached to talents!
Most of these people were like Cheng Yaojin, and gave a lot of gifts in cash and silver.
Then there are also silk, brocade and silk.
in addition!
There were also servants sent to Zhuang Zhou.
There are both men and women, most of them are about fifteen or sixteen years old.
The indenture was also delivered.
It's equivalent to being a slave.
And Zhuang Zhou was the slave owner.
This was something Zhuang Zhou had never expected.
These people are strictly selected.
Some are good at cooking, while others are good at gardening.
Others are proficient in martial arts and can protect the safety of the mansion.
Zhuang Zhou couldn't help but feel deeply moved.
I will actually become a slave owner one day!
As time went by, more and more people came to give gifts and congratulate.
The main gate of the Zhuang Mansion was blocked.
Until someone outside the door started to clear the area.
Because there are more big shots coming.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!"
Zhuang Zhou was inviting everyone to take their seats in the banquet hall.
Another announcement was made outside.
Good job!
This time it was Li Chengqian who came.
Zhuang Zhou was probably already certain.
This must have been instructed by Li Er.
I originally thought that the officials understood Li Er's thoughts.
They came to pay their respects spontaneously.
But the prince is here.
That must have been intentional.
Needless to say, Li Er will make his final appearance soon.
really.
Li Chengqian had just arrived when he heard another announcement from outside:
"His Majesty has arrived!"
Everyone then hurriedly got up and went outside the mansion to greet them.
Li Er, dressed in gorgeous clothes, got off the carriage with an imposing manner.
Behind him followed a group of palace maids and eunuchs, holding various rare gifts in their hands.
"Zhuang Zhou, congratulations!"
Li Er walked over with a smile on his face and patted Zhuang Zhou on the shoulder.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Zhuang Zhou bowed respectfully.
"You have made great military achievements for the Tang Dynasty, and I am deeply pleased."
Li Er said:
"These gifts are just a small token of my personal appreciation."
This is a very well said thing.
The rewards given previously were the court’s business.
As the emperor, I was only granting rewards on behalf of the court.
But now, it is rewarded in the name of an individual.
Certainly not indicating.
The emperor does not have the final say in the court alone.
I have to say that Li Er's emotional intelligence is really high.
Li Er had been to the Zhuang Mansion a long time ago, but it was the first time for many other officials.
Speaking of which, if it weren’t for Li Er coming.
Those people simply look down on businessmen like Zhuang Zhou.
Not to mention visiting to pay respects.
"Zhuang Zhou, you are very good!
You have just received the imperial decree, and all the officials have come to congratulate you!"
Li Er pretended to be ignorant.
It seemed as if today's situation had nothing to do with him.
Zhuang Zhou smiled in his heart and replied modestly:
“You gentlemen are too polite.
How could I, Zhuang Zhou, deserve such great love from you all?
It would allow His Majesty to come and pay his respects in person."
After saying this, Zhuang Zhou even imitated the way he bowed to express his gratitude.
His face was filled with genuine gratitude.
He can still do this kind of acting.
Upon seeing this, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others all said that they had come here on their own initiative.
After all, Zhuang Zhou had made great military achievements for the Tang Dynasty and was worthy of their acquaintance.
