He felt that it was better for the emperor not to know.
The emperor gently fiddled with the lid of the tea cup and said, "Why don't you speak?"
Xie Boting said, "I was not able to see my wife offering sacrifices to heaven and praying for rain with my own eyes."
The emperor raised his eyebrows, "Why don't you even take part in such a big thing?"
"...I wanted to participate, but I went back to the house and drank half a cup of tea, and my wife finished praying for rain..."
Ahem!
The emperor choked on the tea.
He coughed and asked, "So fast?"
Xie Boting nodded lightly, "It's so fast that people can't believe it."
emperor,"......"
The emperor thought that he led all the officials to worship the sky, got up at dawn, and the sky was already dark when he returned to the palace. However, God refused to show his face and stopped raining. When he went to the Princess of Jingnan, he only drank half a cup of tea in the courtyard where he lived.
, she finished praying for rain. The gap in the emperor's heart should not be too great.
Could it be that God was dissatisfied with him as the emperor and deliberately made him angry?
The more the emperor thought about it, the more he felt the pain in his knees, and waved his hand for Xie Boting to step aside.
Xie Boting withdrew.
After leaving the imperial study, she remembered the piece of paper Su Tang had written. She would definitely be disappointed if she returned empty-handed. Xie Boting held his forehead and turned around to enter the imperial study.
The emperor looked at him, "Is there anything else?"
"Before entering the palace, my wife asked me if the emperor would reward her," Xie Boting's voice seemed to come from a distant mountain.
"..."
The emperor was stunned.
The emperor is so angry, can't he see it?
His heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys all ached because he was angry with God for joining forces. He still wanted a reward?!
The emperor glared at Xie Boting, but unfortunately his words did not match his anger, and what he said was, "What reward do you want?"
When he realized what he had said, the emperor was stunned.
Xie Baiting quickly took out the list from his arms and said, "This is the list written by my wife."
emperor,"......"
Eunuch Yuan, "..."
Eunuch Yuan has been serving the emperor for decades, but this is the first time he has encountered such a situation. He has gained a lot of experience.
Eunuch Yuan looked at the emperor, and the emperor waved his hand. Eunuch Yuan then came over to take the gift list from Xie Boting, and presented it to the emperor with both hands.
The Crown Princess of Jingnan is not short of money, and she is even more generous with her money. What makes her ask for it must be rare items that can only be found in the palace.
Eunuch Yuan's guess was right. Su Tang was short of one thing in the birthday gift she prepared for the emperor. Chen Qing couldn't find it after asking everywhere, so she thought of trying her luck with the emperor. Maybe the emperor had something here. It would be a waste of opportunity to have the same thing.
, I simply wrote a piece of paper.
That is to say, except for the top of the list, the rest of the items are not that rare, at least it can be done with the power and money of the Jingnan Palace.
The emperor looked at the list and frowned again and again, "Camellia oil that has been in the sun for six years? Camellia oil that has been missing for one year?"
Xie Boting looked at the emperor with an expression of "Don't ask me, I don't know either."
The emperor scanned the list from beginning to end. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that this list was used to make things difficult for him as the emperor. He handed the list to Eunuch Yuan and said, "Go and ask if there is anything on the list."
When Eunuch Yuan took the order, he took the opportunity to take a look at it. Good fellow, the things he asked for were the same as they were incredible. They might not be available in the palace. This chapter has been completed!
