Chapter 519: Differential Treatment
At this moment, Shangguan Candle did not hide his emotions as before, but looked at himself with warm eyes without hiding it at all.
Feng Xiyan was startled, her heart was suffocated, and the familiar sourness instantly invaded the entire heart, she pinched the palm of her hand hard, and after the pain forced her to wake up, she raised her eyes and glared at Shangguan Candle fiercely before turning her gaze away.
Regardless of his reaction, he continued to pretend to be calm and continued to be interrupted.
The voice is clear, the face is normal, the eyes are kind, everything seems to have no change, it is normal, but Feng Xiyan's heart is like a heavy drum beating, "dong dong" makes a violent sound, as if he wants to break through his eardrum.
Because she knew that Shangguan Candle's gaze was looking at her straight at the moment, and she had never moved away, and that hot gaze was clearly projected on her, making her nowhere to escape.
In the final decision, Shangguan Candle was still sent to the Judicial Bureau and became the exclusive courtier of the emperor's order, and Li Mao was a general, who had already been sealed very high, and he was at the top of the seal.
So before Feng Xiyan could open his mouth to him, he offered not to give him a reward, claiming that he had not made any contributions, everything was the credit of Grandpa Candle and the imperial doctors, and he had not done anything.
Although Feng Xiyan agreed with him very much, she never had a good impression of him in her heart, but the grievance was a matter of two people, and she couldn't talk about it on the surface, so she still pretended to condolence for two sentences, and then rewarded him with some gold.
And the ministers of the Tai Hospital, Feng Xiyan rewarded according to the usual practice, and when the reward came down, Feng Xiyan did not reward one person, this person was Fan Shilang who she asked Xiao Dezi to secretly help Shangguan Candle.
Feng Xiyan observed for a while, and saw that Fan Shilang looked as usual, and did not feel emotional because she did not reward him, so he had to nod in his heart, this Fan Shilang is reusable.
Then, Feng Xiyan waved his hand to Xiao Dezi, and after Xiao Dezi approached him, he whispered in his ear.
Then, after the end of the round of rewards, because everyone had just escaped death, it was a period of fatigue, Feng Xiyan decided not to hold a celebration ceremony today after thinking about it, and planned to change it to another time.
"I know that you Aiqing have not gone home to visit for a long time when you have gone out of the city to deal with the plague this time, thinking that everyone has escaped from death and come back, what you want most should be to go home and reunite with your family, so today's celebration banquet will be canceled and changed to another time, and today I will let you Aiqing go home and reunite with your family and share the joy of family."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Thank you, Lord Longne!"
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
"Long live the emperor!"
“……”
She has always done a good job in buying people's hearts, because she knows that everyone's hearts are flesh and blood, as long as you think more about others, then you will definitely get more than you imagined.
Like now.
Seeing that the overjoyed ministers were even happier than they had just received the reward, Feng Xiyan knew that he had taken a good step, at least in the matter of buying people's hearts, it could be two or three times if he failed once.
In short, everything will slowly get better.
After the dispersal of the dynasty, Feng Xiyan did not return to the palace, but came to the Palace of Nourishing Heart.
Then after a while, a person appeared, and this person was Fan Shilang, who had been deliberately ignored by her in the court before.
"Your Majesty, Lord Fan has arrived."
"Okay, stand down."
"Yes."
After bringing the people in, Xiao Dezi retreated outside the door.
"Fan Shilang, this time I secretly ordered you to go out of the city to assist Shangguan Candle in dealing with the plague, obviously you and Shangguan Candle have the same merits, but I didn't reward you for your merits, don't you have doubts in your heart? Isn't there any sadness or resentment? ”
Feng Xiyan put down the piece in his hand and raised his head to look at Fan Shilang who was kneeling below.
In the face of her outspoken questioning, Fan Shilang did not have the slightest nervousness and fear, and was always calm, just like what she had observed in the court before, no different.
Seeing this, Feng Xiyan was even more satisfied with him in his heart.
Fan Shilang saluted Feng Xiyan, and replied neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Returning to the emperor, the minister does not have any dissatisfaction and sadness, because His Majesty must have other intentions in doing this, although the minister does not understand at the moment, but he will soon understand." ”
Feng Xiyan pulled the corners of his lips, I have to say, this person is really interesting, he is really reluctant to let it out like this, after all, such a sober person, there are only a handful of people in the court.
"It seems that you are a sensible person, and you know that I have other reasons for doing this, but if I just don't want to reward you, and there is no other reason, what do you think in your heart?"
"This ......" Fan Shilang did not answer at this time, but became hesitant, which made Feng Xiyan even more satisfied, if this person answered in one mouth, she might still be a little disappointed in her heart, but she didn't expect it to be honest and not too official.
"What? What's the difficulty? ”
Feng Xiyan continued to ask.
Fan Shilang saluted and continued to return: "That's the case, Your Majesty, your interrogator doesn't dare to speak falsely, and he doesn't want to tell lies to deceive Your Majesty, so for Your Majesty's question just now, the minister will definitely feel sad and unfair in his heart, but he will not feel dissatisfied. ”
In this regard, Feng Xiyan smiled and continued: "You are quite sincere, but since I came to you in private, it must be because you guessed right, the reason why I didn't reward you in public is because I arranged to go privately about this plague trip, and no one knows about it." ”
"And rashly rewarding you will definitely bring you unnecessary trouble, because you returned to Kyoto because of your good performance in office, but when you first arrived, you must not know a lot about Kyoto, plus you have made such a great contribution when you came back, it will definitely attract the attention of the red-eyed."
"I have investigated you, I know some things about your life and your personality, I know that you are a good official, and now the situation between the DPRK and China is complicated, and you should have seen it today, I don't want you to fall into this troubled water."
Therefore, instead of letting you be targeted early, it is better to let you out, and you will be my eyes outside, inspect various places in Daning, and find out the situation in various places. ”
Fan Shilang was shocked, looking at Feng Xiyan in disbelief, with the attention in Feng Xiyan's words, his eyes gradually became foggy, and slowly moistened.
