Next, Li Yi couldn't excuse himself, so he had to pick up the important events that had happened in Yunnan over the years and talk about them, and Yuan Zitong and Su Zhijian, who listened to it, both looked uncertain, and even their palms were sweating when they were nervous. Everyone chatted happily until it was dark, and then they realized that it was already afternoon.

Seeing that it was almost time to get off work, Li Yi would not go to Hanlin Courtyard again, everyone was full of food and drink, and agreed to meet again during the New Year, Yuan Zitong settled the account, and Su Zhijian said goodbye and left.

Out of the restaurant, I looked at the sky that was about to get dark, this person was unfamiliar with the place, and Li Yi and the others had nothing to do, so they had to go home.

As soon as I entered the mansion, someone had already come forward to invite me, saying that Mrs. had invited everyone to eat under the inner house. Although Li Yi and the others were still full of stomachs, they didn't dare not listen to Madame's orders, so Li Yi had no choice but to go through the hall with Lian Jun and others under the leadership of his subordinates.

Coming to a warm hall in the inner house, after meeting Mrs. Liu in Yili, everyone sat down as guests.

She first routinely asked Li Yi what she had seen and heard in the Hanlin Academy, and then said to Lian Jun and the others with a smile: "I know that you are all good friends of Yi'er, and you have accompanied Yi'er in the wind and rain for many years, and I am very grateful in my heart. ”

"It's just that yesterday's arrangement at home was relatively hasty, and I didn't treat you well, if there is a place where you are not well entertained, please forgive me!"

Lian Jun hurriedly said: "Mrs. Liu's words are serious, coming to your mansion is like returning to your own home, hehe!" I myself think it's quite kind, and I guess Lemon and Huo Feng also share the same idea as me. ”

Le Meng and Huo Feng hurriedly nodded yes.

Mrs. Liu nodded and smiled: "That's good, that's good, I hope you will treat this place as your home, don't see outside, and if you need anything, just tell your subordinates." Oh! I invited you here just to have a meal with you, but yesterday I was a little sluggish. ”

Lian Jun and they said humbly again and again, but Mrs. Liu warmly invited, and the big guy had to come to the next exquisite dining room for dinner.

Since they had just eaten, Li Yi and the others could not eat.

After drinking a few glasses of wine, Li Yi asked where Li Pian was, and Mrs. Liu said with a smile: "Yi'er doesn't know, since a few other courtyards were built, several of your brothers have been working in your own courtyard. ”

"I have assigned a special cook in each courtyard, and you are still Li Fu, Li Gui, and Sister-in-law Zhang in Li Gui's house, all of whom are familiar with each other. In addition, I have arranged for you four rough maidens and a few servants to answer the call, so that you will not be short of manpower. ”

"Oh! There are also even Gongzi and his wife, as well as Le Gongzi and Huo Gongzi, who also have special subordinates to call, if they are not satisfied, they can put it forward. If you eat, it's also in Guanlan Garden, so you don't have to eat together, are you? ”

"By the way, Li Yan, this little boy was killed when he followed you to Yunnan, and there is still a lack of a little guy grinding candles by your side, shall I arrange another one for you?"

Li Yi hurriedly shook his head and said: "That's not necessary, when I was in Yunnan, it was like taking care of all this for me, and I never felt inconvenient." Now that I'm used to it, I don't need it. ”

Mrs. Liu smiled and said: "It's like a smart and virtuous girl, so that anyone who sees her wants to hurt her more, these years have been very helpful to you, I know it in my heart." ”

"Don't worry, I have already ordered it to go down, her monthly money is distributed according to Han Ji's standard, twenty yuan per month, which is the highest among the concubines."

Li Yi was amused in his heart, he had thousands of taels of money in his hand, plus official salaries, rice, charcoal, kitchen materials, silk cloth, servants, and carriage and horse money, there was no shortage at all. Although I don't know how much less money I have earned after serving as a Hanlin scholar, I should always have a few hundred taels of silver every year. All this money is in her hands, how can she look at this monthly money of 20 taels a month!

And if she knows that Lin Qingliang, one of the top ten richest people in the capital, still has seventy percent of her own shares, I don't know how Mrs. Liu should feel.

But Mrs. Liu's kindness Li Yi understood it, as if although she didn't care about this little money, the standard of this month's money represented her status in the mansion after all, and it would definitely bring her a certain amount of psychological satisfaction.

After Representative Li Yi expressed her gratitude, Mrs. Liu continued: "I heard from my lord yesterday that the salary of your Hanlin bachelor is not very rich, and I think it should be much less than that of your appointment in Yunnan. So I'm going to give you another 30 yuan a month, which is my own money, don't tell me about it! ”

Li Yi hurriedly shook his head and said, "Mother, this matter must not be done. I have saved a lot of money over the years, and it is not a problem to cope with all aspects, and we must not ask for the money you give. ”

Mrs. Liu looked at Li Yi with an approving gaze and smiled: "Hmm! In that case, I won't give it to you, as long as you are diligent and thrifty, you will have an easy life. In addition, I would like to remind you that your father hated corruption above all else, and that you must not go down this path. ”

"Although our family is not as good as the rich people in the capital, if you have land, land and shops, you will always be indispensable. I really can't, and your uncle can help you! Therefore, we should not be involved in personal fraud at all. ”

Li Yi smiled and said, "Mother, where have you been?" You don't know your third son's temper, I don't know how many people I offended because of the fight against corruption when I was the imperial history of Jingcha, did I forget the root cause when I got outside? Rest assured, I will never go down that road. ”

Mrs. Liu smiled: "I am most relieved of you, I just ask you casually." ”

Then she turned to Lian Jun and the others and said: "A few sons may not know, when my three sons were in the capital, they were the Jingcha imperial envoy of that Laoshizi, and I don't know how many people I offended, many corrupt officials and corrupt officials hate him to the core, and I don't know what to think of to calculate him!" ”

"I heard that you are all masters of martial arts, so you should take care of my three children more in the future, so as not to be hurt by someone's black hand. I'm a woman, and I won't say anything about gratitude, so please be more attentive. ”

Lian Jun and the others hurriedly stood up, and Lian Jun said happily: "Madam, but please rest assured, Li Yi is the brother whom my brothers admire the most, as long as I am there, I will never let my brother be hurt in the slightest, and we will always guard him." ”
