Facing Chuyi's frank gaze, Chongfeng straightened his face and took the tray from another servant, "This set is for you."
"Give me?"
"You are Miss Xie's chief maid, the most sensible and steady, so you should dress differently from the others."
When the first day of the new year came, the brocade cloth was lifted up and what came into view was a plain pink dress.
There is no exaggerated pink, nor any eye-catching embroidery. The color is fresh yet calm, not ostentatious, and very decent.
In the second and third year of junior high school, they all had only one set, but she had two sets.
Chuyi looked at Chongfeng suspiciously.
Chong Feng remained calm and said, "This was bought by Jingying. Jingying is very thoughtful and considerate."
Chu Yi understood and accepted it generously:
"Thank you, Master Jingying."
When Chongfeng left, he looked at her calmly for a moment before leaving.
"How about it?"
The shadow is waiting outside:
"Did Ms. Xie reimburse you?"
"Of course it's reimbursed." Chongfeng pulled out the purse from his waist and threw it to Jingying.
Jingying counted the money and smiled: "Ms. Xie is really generous. There is still extra reward money!"
Chongfeng didn't say much and went back to the palace with Jingying. Now that the Regent was back, he naturally had to stay in the palace to suppress those who wanted to cause trouble.
As soon as I entered the Linhua Palace, I heard the man scolding the officials:
"Master Zhang, it seems that you have been in frequent contact with the Fourth Prince recently?"
"Sir Yang, you are in the Ministry of War. Why did you go to the Sixth Prince's mansion instead of reporting important military information to Prince Xian? What do you want to do?"
"Master Wei..."
The officials knelt on the ground in fear.
The level of fear is no less than when the King of Hell is calling on you.
The imperial power is feared, especially the regent who can kill people without mercy.
He really killed.
When the Regent is not around, they dare to talk nonsense, but who dares to be the first to speak out in front of the Regent?
Jingying and Chongfeng entered Linhua Palace and summarized the latest news from Mohuai Prefecture based on the informant's report:
"Recently, Crown Prince Dong Ling has been trying to win over the people. I'm afraid he's preparing for war."
Chu Di smiled faintly:
"You are trying to buy the hearts of my people in my territory?"
How could he let him be slapped in the face like this?
"Pass on this king's order. From now on, for the next year, the taxes of the people of Great Chu will be reduced by 20%."
Any hypocritical and artificial way of winning the hearts of the people is not as real as real money!
This 20% reduction in taxes is enough to give Chu Yeli a headache!
He ordered the troops to be mobilized...
After an hour, he finally took a break and immediately called Chu Aotian over.
Chu Aotian thought that the uncle wanted to give him a gift, so he came over with his teeth bared, and was then forced to sit on the throne by the uncle:
"I have to go out for a while. Please finish reading today's memorials."
"?"
Doesn’t he want to learn “The Policy of Governing the Country”?
no.
The emperor's uncle left in such a beautiful way?
He has to study his lessons and review memorials at the same time. Can he use the art of splitting himself into two?
Chu Dichi left the palace.
He just couldn't sit still.
Chu Li did not come home last night. Where did he go?
Just imagine: the scene of the candlelight in the theater, the actors singing the melodious tunes, and Chu Li drinking a little wine and clapping his hands...
This is something she can do.
We have to think of a way to marry her quickly.
He originally wanted to go to the Coral Waterside Pavilion at night, but he couldn't wait any longer, so when he passed by a secret Raoxiang Pavilion, he went in.
When he came out, his sleeves were bulging with a few things.
But I never expected that when I arrived at the Coral Waterside Pavilion, I would find it empty-handed again.
“Where are the people!”
"Reporting to the Regent, the young lady left an hour ago."
Is she a dog?
Running around all day long.
Chu Dichi turned around and sat down, "I'll wait for her."
"The lady said she might not be back tonight."
What!
Her waist was half bent when it straightened instantly. It's only been a few days, and now she is so open-minded?
-
On the other side, the missing Chu Li had already ridden his horse out of the city. According to the location he had inquired about, he found himself at the foot of a mountain next to a small town.
After walking around for about fifteen minutes, I finally saw an old man weeding the field with a hoe beside a field full of bamboo.
The elder was wearing a straw hat, his temples were gray, and he had his trouser legs rolled up. He shook off the mud on his shoes and pulled the cabbage up a little.
"If you force things to grow, they will surely die."
The elder turned his head and took the towel from his neck to wipe the sweat from his head.
"You are a little girl from the city. You look spoiled. I'm afraid you have never even worked in the fields. What do you know?"
Chu Li tied the horse to the side and said:
"Farmers grow crops to support their families, scholars study to enrich the country, farmers support the country, the country protects millions of families, the knowledge in books is as important as sowing seeds."
She went down to the field, stepped on the uneven soil, and helped him plant the cabbages.
The elder narrowed his eyes and asked, "Who are you?"
"I am an unknown person. I came to visit General Xie because I admire his great name."
This person was none other than Xie Enhong, the old general Xie, who had just retired from the army.
Although Xie Enhong's hair was gray, his pair of cloudy eyes were strong and sharp. The hoe in his hand suddenly shook against the ground, shaking off the mud and striking Chu Li in the face.
