The following day, in the imperial court.
The court officials also keenly sensed that the regent had become even more fearsome, so they were more cautious when submitting their memorials, fearing that they might step on the prince's taboos and be punished.
Even Gu Heng became cautious.
This royal uncle is terrifying when he speaks, but even more terrifying when he's silent.
The court meeting passed by in a state of trepidation.
After the court session ended, Gu Linchao went directly to the military camp. As a result, the soldiers in the camp complained bitterly, feeling like they wanted to die on the spot from the rigorous training.
That's incredibly cruel and inhumane.
Meanwhile, at this time, the Regent's Palace...
Wen Nongnong personally poured Wen Tingyun a cup of tea.
"What brings you here today, brother?"
Wen Tingyun picked up his cup, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile, "I came to see you and also to thank the Regent for his patronage."
"What did the Prince do to help you?" Wen Nongnong asked in surprise.
Seeing that she was unaware of his promotion to Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Wen Tingyun felt an even greater liking for Gu Linchao.
Unexpectedly, this brother-in-law, who had helped him, did not boast about it in front of Nong Nong.
"Nongnong doesn't know that her elder brother was promoted to Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel yesterday, does she?" Wen Tingyun said gently.
Upon hearing this, Wen Nongnong said happily, "Then I really must congratulate you, elder brother. But the prince didn't mention it to me."
Wen Tingyun nodded and reminded him, "It was thanks to the Regent that my elder brother was promoted to Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel."
Upon hearing this, Wen Nongnong immediately understood his implication.
Although she felt that her elder brother was able to be promoted to the position of Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel because of his own ability, he was still young, and it was possible that he had been promoted to that position so quickly because of Gu Linchao's support.
The eldest brother was promoted by Gu Linchao, could it be that she currying favor with him had an effect?
Thinking of this, she assured him, "Brother, don't worry, I will definitely serve Your Highness well." Gu Linchao was so generous, she naturally had to reciprocate in kind. Besides, she was already planning to curry favor with him and cultivate a good relationship with him.
Upon hearing this, Wen Tingyun felt relieved.
After sitting for a while, he stood up and said, "Since the prince is not here, I will go back first. When you have time, you should also go back and visit your parents."
"Okay, then I'll see my brother off." Wen Nongnong also stood up.
She had just seen Wen Tingyun off when Atuo Jianghua arrived.
She kept her promise and brought the most beautiful clothes from Xinjiang to give to Wen Nong Nong.
Wen Nongnong was very generous and took her directly to her room, letting her choose her favorite dress.
It is said that the Wen family treated the original owner really well. When she got married, they prepared several trunks full of beautiful dresses for her. She could change into one every day and still not be able to wear them all.
Wen Nongnong's bedroom was very large, divided into three parts. Outside was a large flower hall, which could be used to receive guests or dine. There was a soft couch by the window. Inside was a room for sleeping, and connected to the bedroom was a dressing room.
The dressing room was filled with her clothes.
Each dress is made of the finest materials and is exquisitely crafted. Every pattern on it is also very delicate, showing that the embroiderer has put a lot of effort into it.
As soon as Atuo Jianghua stepped in, she was dazzled by what she saw.
"Wow, Nong Nong, you have so many dresses, and they're all so beautiful!" A Tuo Jiang Hua exclaimed, walking over and touching them with her hands. "The fabric of your Daye clothes is so good. It feels so smooth and soft, so comfortable."
