On the way back to the palace, Meng Yiyi saw a tall and thin young man from afar.
She was wearing a simple blue shirt, with her long hair wrapped in a cloth. She stood straight and tall, with a temperament like green pine and bamboo.
His facial features were not delicate, but he was good-looking. At this moment, he was walking briskly on the palace road.
"Who is he? I don't think I've seen him in the palace before..."
Meng Yiyi looked calm and walked right past the young man.
Anyway, he is someone who has nothing to do with me, so there is no need to take him to heart.
Over there, Wei Xi also noticed Meng Yiyi. The girl was dressed in purple and looked heroic. Her long hair was tied up in a bun, and her temperament was bold and bright.
My heart beat faster and after passing by her, I didn't forget to look back at her one more time.
The girl's back also seems to be particularly beautiful.
It was just a quick glimpse, but they didn't know that they had formed a bond and would be together for the rest of their lives.
...
...
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, half a month had passed. Sun He perfectly completed the disaster relief mission and returned to Beijing safely.
And Murong Yu could only assist him openly or secretly, for fear of losing his official position.
In the Imperial Study, Emperor Jian'an was overjoyed when he saw Sun He's reply to the memorial.
Every penny of disaster relief money was calculated clearly, and even porridge shops were set up in the disaster area to provide hot porridge to the victims for free.
Now, the people have survived the disaster and their hearts have settled down, and Sun He has made an indelible contribution to all this!
"Haha, hahahahahahaha, the little princess is really my lucky star! Here, try this dessert!"
Looking at the little baby in his arms, Emperor Jian'an felt completely gratified, because Sun He was recommended by the little princess.
After taking the snack, Su Lili tried to lick it and tasted the sweet chestnut aroma. Her eyes suddenly lit up.
[It’s delicious, so delicious! My father is so kind, he has researched new desserts for me! ]
[If I can pack some back to Wei Rui Palace, I can eat it anytime. But my teeth haven’t grown out yet, so I can only lick it but not bite it…]
Seeing her happy, Emperor Jian'an said with a smile, "Haha, as long as you like it, as long as you like it, there are more than one kind of new snacks. If you want to eat them, come to the Imperial Study Room often."
[Okay, okay, then it would be best if you come to the Imperial Study every day to accompany your father! ]
After licking a few bites of chestnut cake, Emperor Jian'an spread the memorial on the table and let Su Lili read it at will.
Soon, Su Lili noticed the report on the official trafficking case and couldn't bear to look away.
"This one, this one..."
[This evidence is fake. Minister Meng has never colluded with the enemy or committed treason. It seems that someone is trying to kill him, and they are really going to great lengths!]
[This method looks so familiar. By the way, Prime Minister, the Prime Minister is the kind of person who will beat someone to death if he offends you. If it weren't for the wisdom and bravery of my father, Sun He would never have come back alive! ]
[However, I dare not say for sure. Sigh, it is so hard for my father to sit on the throne! ]
The little baby sighed, smacked his lips, and changed into a more comfortable position in Emperor Jian'an's arms.
Then, he picked up another piece of rose cake and licked it non-stop.
He took another look at the memorial and fell into deep thought again.
[By the way, since Sun He is reliable, he should be given more opportunities to play his role. I think it would be a good idea to choose him to investigate the official trafficking case, since my uncle is busy investigating other cases!]
[The key is that he is a loyal official who is only loyal to his father. He does not form cliques or factions. He is a breath of fresh air among officials! ]
Indeed, Sun He was a pure minister. He regretted discovering him too late, but now at least he had successfully put him to use, and it was the little princess who reminded him.
"Pass on my order, and summon Sun He, the Dali Minister of the Dali Temple, to the palace to meet you!"
The imperial edict was passed down, and Sun He arrived soon. As soon as he entered the room, he immediately knelt on the ground respectfully.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. Long live your Majesty!"
"Please stand up, my dear. Please take a seat and give me some tea."
Emperor Jian'an smiled slightly, and soon a palace servant brought a stool and served him a cup of hot tea.
Sun He sat down respectfully, his heart beating rapidly.
I don’t know whether it is a blessing or a curse that Your Majesty suddenly summoned him into the palace.
After all, living with the king is like living with a tiger.
Seeing his fearful look, Su Lili giggled, and at this time, Sun He noticed the little girl in Emperor Jian'an's arms.
The little girl is so pretty. Her eyes and eyebrows are somewhat similar to those of Emperor Jian'an. Her little face is so chubby. I really want to rub it a little.
After I came to my senses, I broke out in a cold sweat because of my previous thoughts.
The person in front of me is probably the most beloved little princess. As an official appointed by the court, how dare I disrespect the little princess!
"My dear, my dear, what are you thinking about?"
Seeing that he was distracted, Emperor Jian'an felt a little angry, but he did not show it.
Sun He came back to his senses with a start and opened his mouth to apologize, but Emperor Jian'an had already spoken before him.
"My dear, you have been promoted to the fifth rank of Dali Temple Official for your contribution in dealing with the snowstorm. I invited you here this time because I want to entrust you with another task."
"Thank you very much for your reward, Your Majesty. If Your Majesty has any task, I will do my best to complete it!"
Sun He lifted his sleeves, knelt upright on the ground, and bowed deeply to Emperor Jian'an.
He stood up, took the imperial edict, and held it tightly in his hand.
"I want you to investigate the recent official trafficking case. I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer."
"I am so humbled and am willing to share your worries. I will do my best to investigate this case thoroughly and will not let your majesty down!"
Holding the imperial edict, Sun He bowed deeply again, then slowly stood up and his eyes fell on Su Lili again.
But I saw that the little princess was smiling at me happily, and even showed some appreciation?
She was just a little baby, how could she know what appreciation was? Sun He reminded himself, maybe he had seen it wrong.
"Okay, you can leave now. Remember what you said and don't let the news leak out."
"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty. I will take my leave."
After paying his respects once again, Sun He respectfully left the imperial study, while over there, Su Lili also yawned loudly.
[Ahhh, I’m so sleepy. I suddenly miss my uncle so much. I wonder how he is doing lately.]
[As the Junior Official of the Dali Temple, he is really very busy. This case was bypassed by him and let Sun He investigate. It was probably to let him take a break and not to overwork himself and hurt his body.]
Yes, after the palace banquet, Li Yun has been investigating the case. He is so busy that he cannot sleep at night.
Handing this case over to Sun He is also a test for Sun He to see whether he can become Li Yun's right-hand man in the future.
Although Li Yun had a tainted private life, he was a serious and responsible official, and he was deeply trusted by himself.
If you think about it carefully, the marriage with Princess Sora should be put on the agenda. In the future, he will not only be his adopted son, but also the prince consort of Otsuki Kingdom, and the bond connecting the diplomatic relations between the two countries!
Time flies, and Sun He soon found the clue.
In the afternoon, he secretly brought people to the end of Hulu Lane and knocked on a house's door.
