After returning home, Qi Yu put his reward on the table.
This sound is really nice.
Zhou's ears were very sensitive and he immediately responded: "Huh? The sound of silver?"
After saying that, she eagerly opened the cloth bag and counted it carefully.
Drink! Don’t tell me, it’s quite a lot!
There are actually five hundred taels!
Mrs. Zhou was overjoyed and asked hurriedly: "Ah Man, where did this money come from?"
Qi Yu pointed in the direction of the palace and said with a smile: "This is a reward from the emperor."
Zhou was suddenly enlightened and immediately praised him, saying: "Looking at it this way, the emperor is really a wise king."
Well……
What kind of logic is this?
From my perspective, there seems to be nothing wrong with it!
Hearing the sound, Liu Quan came over and said with a smile: "Ms. sir, this is for no reason. Why did the emperor reward you? Is it because your novels are well written?"
"This time it's not because of the novel!"
"Why is that?"
How to say this?
Qi Yu thought for a moment and chose to keep half, so he evaded the important and took the easy: "The emperor ordered me to go to Shandong Prefecture on official business, so he made me his censor for promoting weaving. Don't understand?... Well, let's put it this way, he just asked me to do it.
Help him catch some crickets. As for the money, it is the reward for my hard work."
Catching crickets?
After hearing this, both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law burst out laughing.
The emperor is too playful, how can he tinker with these useless things?
Liu Quan hid his smile and said worriedly: "Ms. sir, there are rumors that the public security in Shandong Prefecture is not very stable. I'm a little worried when you leave."
Qi Yu was startled, then smiled and said: "Madam, you are worrying too much. I am going out this time to work for the emperor. Of course, I will be protected by someone. Don't worry."
Liu Quan asked again: "Just for crickets?"
Qi Yu said with a smile: "The emperor's favor is not something that the ministers have the right to interfere with."
The truth cannot be told.
Even if you tell them, it will only increase their worries.
As the only grown man in the family, he must stand up decisively when he needs to face it.
I went here just for revenge.
Anyone who has anything to do with the Emperor Worship Cult is an enemy.
Then, Qi Yu suddenly burst into laughter.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were both stunned: Why are you giggling?
Something good happens!
What good thing?
Listen to me.
So, Qi Yu couldn't wait to tell him about asking for an official position for his cousin Zhou Chunsheng, just like frying beans.
At the end, he also emphasized the emperor's promise.
Yes, that’s a golden statement, it’s ironclad!
In other words, Zhou Chunsheng must have been an official, but his rank should not be too high. Maybe he was a ninth-rank official, or maybe he had no rank.
Even so, this is a great opportunity!
After hearing this, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were both stunned!
Chun Sheng became an official in such a muddle-headed way?
Why does it feel like I'm dreaming?
Qi Yu was also smiling, with a sense of accomplishment on his face.
There has always been a thought deep in his heart, which is to try his best to win over his relatives when he can. Unfortunately, he is currently in a low position and has very limited resources and connections.
Powerless.
Yes, I only have a small amount of power as big as my palm, and it is only for horse use. Not to mention covering the sky, even a small amount of rain can't cover it.
However, it is very gratifying to be able to pull my cousin up.
Mrs. Zhou's eyes were moist, and she wiped away her tears and said, "It's great, it's great! If your second uncle Quanxia knew anything about it, he would definitely go to your father for a drink."
Well……
With just one or two cups of wine, can your father be able to accompany your second uncle who is involved in official circles?
Qi Yu chuckled and said: "Tonight, I will write to Chunsheng and ask him to make some arrangements and come to Beijing as soon as possible." Then, he sighed: "When I get promoted and have real power in my hands,
If I bring all my relatives along, it won’t be a waste of time for me to become an official!”
Liu Quan said in surprise: "Well, when the time comes, don't forget my unsatisfactory brother!"
Well……
It is said that a married girl prefers her parents' family, and it seems that this is indeed the case.
Qi Yu hurriedly held up a bowl of water and said, "Madam, don't worry, I will never favor one over the other. I will treat everyone equally."
Then, the family members burst into laughter.
Although this idea was just a daydream, it brought hope and hope to the family.
Overall, the future is promising!
…
That night, Liu Quan began to pack her husband's luggage.
This business trip was ordered by the emperor, and it probably only took a day or two to prepare.
In other words, you must be ready to go at any time.
Now that autumn is approaching, the weather is starting to get cooler, so it’s time to prepare more separate clothes.
So, Liu Quan simply packed a few large bags of luggage.
Early the next morning, Qi Yu went to the Yamen as usual.
As soon as I sat down, an imperial edict and official documents from the Ministry of Officials came to me.
It is said that he was granted the title of Censor of Promoting Weaving from Qi and went to the land of Qi and Lu to search for Promoting Weaving. Due to an urgent matter, he needed to set off immediately, and so on.
At this time, colleagues at Xingtaipu Temple became stunned.
What?
Qi Yu was made a censor?
This is a sign of being reused!
It looks like it has been reused, but if you read it carefully, it doesn't look like it.
Why do you say that?
Because the title is: Promote the weaving of censorship!
It is estimated that 80% of it is obtained through flattery.
Also, only sycophants can do such typical things to please the Sacred Heart.
As a result, Qi Yu had another negative image in the minds of the ministers.
His teeth are sore, but the bureaucrats still admire him in their hearts.
As the saying goes, if something good goes up, the people below will follow suit. Everyone knows this simple truth, but only Mr. Qi saw this opportunity and made it happen.
This is the point!
In this regard, Wu Wanrong also made a profound self-examination: I felt that I was already very low-level, but I didn't expect that Qi Yuxie, who was even more shameless than me, as a dignified official of the imperial court, actually went to catch crickets.
Working hard?
If it were me instead...
snort!
Must run faster than him!
Qi Yu, the real owner, did not make any response to the rumors in his ears.
This time it was a secret order, and explaining too much would be harmful rather than helpful.
Although Zhao Mingyu saw something, he looked uninterested and didn't even take the initiative to ask.
This is a smart person.
There is absolutely no benefit in inquiring into the emperor's secrets, unless you are impatient with life.
The Master of the Temple said to Qi Yu with profound meaning: Your salary will be paid as usual, don't worry!
Well, that’s pretty much it!
Qi Yu left directly after making some simple handovers.
…
Outside the gate of Xingtaipu Temple, a tall man with a square face and sword-shaped eyebrows on his temples was waiting for a long time. He looked majestic.
His real identity is the palace guard, but his current identity is Qi Yu's personal bodyguard.
Qi Yu was startled, this security guard was very unique, he seemed to have seen him somewhere.
Oh...I remembered.
We met twice when we were in Yongchuanfu!
Yes, he was the man named Huang who sent him a letter when he was in Yongchuan Mansion, inviting him to Linjiang for an appointment.
Now two years have passed, and when we meet again, Qi Yu's identity is no longer the same as before.
Seeing Mr. Qi approaching, the man surnamed Huang hurriedly stepped forward and clasped his fists and said, "Huang Fei has met Mr. Qi. Can we get on the road now?"
Huang Fei?
Are you sure it's not Hong?
Qi Yu smiled and said, "Brother Huang, you're welcome. Let's not leave in a hurry. I have to go home and pick up some luggage."
Huang Fei nodded and said: "Okay."
Out of dignity, Qi Yu said another greeting: "Brother Huang, we've been waiting for a long time. How are you doing?"
Huang Fei's reaction was very light, and he simply said: "It's good!"
Cough, spit!
This man talks like a lump of elm wood, which is really boring.
Then, Qi Yu looked around again, but did not find the imaginary gong clearing the way, as well as some honor guards holding "Quiet" and "Avoid" signs.
Um?
No ceremony at all?
Doesn’t the emperor take his censor seriously?
However, this time it was done in secret, and it would be safer to keep a low profile.
