Rong Xi never noticed the loneliness in the emperor's eyes when he talked about his offspring.
But every time the emperor mentioned a rank and a higher salary, it became vague.
The emperor found it funny to see her like this. Fortunately, she was a little money-grubber, otherwise he wouldn't know how to bring people into the palace.
Rong Xi stood up and brushed off the non-existent dust on his body. He suppressed his inner excitement and said, "Let me make it clear first, I didn't enter the palace for the money. I came for..."
Oh no, I didn’t think it through.
The emperor just waited quietly for her to make up an excuse.
"I agreed to this because of your sincerity."
"Okay, since I'm so sincere, when does Miss Jiang plan to enter the palace?"
"Although it's not impossible now, my money is still in the Shangshu Mansion, and I have to go back to get it."
He just knew...
"good."
Rong Xi deliberately avoided everyone when she returned home, but she still saw Jiang's father waiting for her outside the courtyard gate.
He still had a serious expression on his face, and was a little angry when he saw Rong Xi leaving the house without permission.
"Where have you been?"
"The Minister is speaking to me."
Jiang Heng was so irritated by her attitude that he almost lost his temper.
"There are only you and me here, who else can I talk to?"
"Sorry, I don't have time right now."
Rong Xi entered the yard and took away the silver she had hidden in the house. When he walked to the gate of the yard, he looked back at the place where the original owner had stayed for nearly seventeen years.
"goodbye!"
When Rong Xi came out, Jiang Heng hadn't left yet. Rong Xi didn't even look at her and walked out directly. No matter how Jiang Heng called her from behind, she didn't turn back.
When she came out, the emperor's carriage was already waiting there. The carriage was deliberately simplified, so people outside would not know who was sitting inside.
Therefore, the guards at the gate of the Shangshu Mansion had no idea whose carriage their fourth young lady had gotten on. It was not until the master came out to ask that they described the general appearance of the carriage to him.
Jiang Heng listened to their description and couldn't be sure who the other party was, but he already had a suspect in his mind, that was the emperor.
When this rebellious girl comes back tonight, I still have to have a good talk with her. If she is really lucky enough to be favored by His Majesty, she should behave well. This is a big deal in the family.
We also need to ease the relationship between them as father and daughter. After all, they are one, and she should understand the principle that they prosper together and suffer together.
Rong Xi sneezed in the carriage and felt like someone was tickling her.
