"Does anyone else want to say anything?" Song Jinxiu glanced at everyone one by one.
snort! She is a first-rank county official, a first-rank cabinet minister. Who gave you the courage to humiliate my mother?
Everyone looked at each other in surprise: Isn't this too arrogant?
The eldest duke glared at Song Jinxiu. If eyes could kill, she would have died hundreds of times already.
"Mother, forget it. Kangle Jun is also eager to protect her, so don't worry about it."
County Master Kangning winked at the Grand Duke.
The eldest prince glanced at his daughter, suppressed his anger, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, considering your filial piety, the Queen Mother will not mind your unreasonableness."
Prince Yin quickly stood up and bowed, saying, "Aunt is so generous, and cousin Kangning is so kind. This is the magnanimity that our royal family should have."
As he spoke, he pulled out a wintersweet from the hand of the eunuch behind him and said with a smile: "Today I borrow this flower to offer to the Buddha, wishing my cousin a happy birthday, and may you be blessed year after year."
The playboy behind him followed suit, pulling out a red plum and offering it to him, saying in unison: "The people of Kangning County are more beautiful than flowers, and they are still beautiful every year."
Kang Ningjun motioned the maid beside her to take the wax plum and returned the greeting gracefully, "Thank you, cousin, and thank you, gentlemen."
Prince Yin bowed and said, "Kang Ning is my cousin, and Kang Le is also my sister. We can't favor one over the other. How about this? I'll give this bouquet of plum blossoms to Kang Le to calm him down."
As he spoke, he took a large bouquet of plum blossoms from the eunuch behind him, smiled, looked at Song Jinxiu politely and kindly, and said, "Don't be afraid, Kangle, your cousin will protect you."
The elegant expression on Corning County's face suddenly cracked.
What does Prince Yin mean? Why can't we favor one over the other? What is protecting you?
Can you tell who is your cousin?
Song Jinxiu looked at the plum blossoms in front of her and asked: Whose cousin are you? How can you recognize relatives randomly?
His eyes swept over Kang Ningjun's dark face, and his heart couldn't help but move: Could it be that Kang Ningjun was targeting him just for this Prince Yin?
No way? Cousins are close relatives.
She took the bouquet calmly, and sure enough, Corning Jun's face was already frozen.
She smiled at Prince Yin, and sure enough, all the plum blossoms in Kangning County were broken by her.
Song Jinxiu held her forehead with her hand: It’s unfair!
Song Jinxiu frowned depressedly. There was really nothing between her and Prince Yin, so why did she offend the vindictive Kangning County?
Forget it, stay away from Prince Yin from now on. She doesn’t want to take the blame for this.
Song Jinxiu smiled brilliantly, and Prince Yin was immediately overjoyed.
When the playboys saw that Kangle Jun had accepted the plum blossom, they all gathered around him.
"Kangle County is so beautiful, one dance shakes the capital. Her light dance moves are unparalleled, and I send you plum blossoms to calm your nerves."
"Give me back the bright moon in the Qin Dynasty and the pass in the Han Dynasty. The people who went on the long march have not returned yet. I give you plum blossoms to calm your nerves and stop others from bullying us."
Forehead?
Song Jinxiu blinked. These playboys can compose poetry?
Tian Lei said seriously: "There are a few plum trees in the corner, blooming alone in the cold. I will climb up the plum tree, and Master will help me get rich."
"Puff,"
Song Jinxiu took the plum blossom with a smile, "Thank you, if you can learn addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, then we can open a small shop together for fun."
"Click"
The plum blossom in Kangning County's hand was broken by her. She threw it on the ground angrily and stepped on it. Then she glared at the playboys arrogantly, turned her face away, and whispered to the maid behind her.
The other playboys realized belatedly: Well, we got carried away just now, it seems that the Corning County official is holding a grudge against them. Will I be whipped when I get home?
Tian Lei whispered: "If we learn addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, Kangle County said she would help us open a shop and make a fortune."
All the playboys: The families of Kangle County are very prosperous, which one of them is not prosperous?
Especially the Pleasant Goat Hotpot Restaurant, which is extremely popular.
If I could run such a store, not to mention offending the Kangning County, even if I offended the Grand Duke, the old man at home would not beat them.
But addition, subtraction, multiplication and division are a bit difficult!
Seeing that Kangle County was in the limelight again, the Grand Duke sneered, they were just a bunch of playboys.
She waved her hand and said, "Okay, let's start the meal!"
County Master Kangning was humiliated, but did not make a big fuss. The Grand Duke also lifted her up high and let her go gently, which made Song Jinxiu's heart alarm bells ring.
He glanced at the cicada in the space, and then calmly used the Dust Removal Technique on himself twice.
As the dishes were served, the Grand Duke said, "As everyone knows, the palace was robbed not long ago, and even the gifts bestowed by the late emperor were lost."
Everyone was stunned: Who wouldn’t cover up their crime when their house was robbed? What does it mean that the Grand Duke said it today? Are you asking us to donate money?
So the anxious flatterer hurriedly said: "Sir, I am willing to offer ten thousand taels of silver to show my gratitude."
"I am also willing to take out 10,000 taels of silver to help the palace overcome difficulties."
Everyone was talking at once, and Song Jinxiu was secretly planning.
My God, these officials' families are all rich. This one has ten thousand taels, that one has ten thousand taels. Soon, the Grand Duke's Mansion will not only not lose money, but will make a fortune.
"Junjun, watch out for me. Once the banknotes are deposited into the warehouse, grab them for me immediately."
It would be great if we could use this much money to build houses for the disaster-stricken border residents.
"Don't worry, I've made note of these places. I'll go visit them later."
"Don't, don't make a scene. People will panic and it will affect public order. You can just go to the Grand Duke's Mansion and cause trouble."
"Kanglejun, why don't you speak?"
Madam Lu, the Imperial Censor, received the hint from the Grand Duke and was very angry, shouting in a high-octave soprano.
“When one side is in trouble, all sides should lend support. Isn’t this the appeal in Cangwu People’s Daily in Kangle County?
Why are you speechless when the government is in trouble? ”
Song Jinxiu rubbed his ears and said, "Yes, when one side is in trouble, all sides come to its aid, but the border residents are suffering, and I haven't seen you donate money?"
"Aren't you talking nonsense? How can those untouchables be compared with the Grand Duke?"
"That's right, the Grand Duke is a royal family, and you actually compared him to those untouchables, Kangle County, what crime should you be punished for?"
Song Jinxiu looked at them, oh! People with different ideas cannot come together, and she really has nothing to say to these people.
She glanced at the eldest duke and said, "How about, duke, just don't return the ten thousand taels from me. Just consider it as my donation, okay?"
Everyone: Oh, yes, the Grand Duke still has money.
The Grand Duke said in a deep voice: "No need, the palace doesn't value your ten thousand taels. Come, serve the wine."
Kang Ningjun stood up, suppressed the calculation in his eyes, and said with a smile:
"Today is the anniversary of the founding of the county. The emperor's uncle gave me two jars of tribute wine from the Western Regions and this glass, which is in line with the poem by Kangle County, "fine grape wine and luminous cup", so Kangle County should drink a few more cups."
As Kang Ningjun spoke, he ordered someone to pour wine for Song Jinxiu.
As soon as the wine jar was opened, a rich fruity aroma filled the air.
