Cao Shuo decided the level, and Shouchun was busy preparing.

Under his rule, envoys were also sent to various places, and countless gifts were sent to Shouchun.

The place where Yuan Shu built it as a palace has long since become Cao Shuo's house.

The servants in the front yard were busy, placing the cages in the open space in the courtyard.

Cao Shuo stood not far away, took Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao to watch the servants count the cages, and then sent the cages to the warehouse.

They were watching, and Pang Tong walked over to them.

Passing the mountain of cages, he turned his head to look.

Coming to Cao Shuo, Pang Tong bowed and saluted: "I've seen the lord." ”

"Why is Shiyuan here?" Cao Shuo asked.

"There are too many gifts sent from all over the place, and I can't take it over there, so come over to see if the warehouse in the house can be placed." Pang Tong replied.

"It looks like I can't put it down." Cao Shuo said: "I've been watching here, and more and more are coming, and the warehouse is about to be full." ”

"I checked it, and there are many of them that the lord didn't need to ascend the throne." Pang Tong said: "The lord might as well take it out and give it to the ladies." ”

"Let people count it." Cao Shuo ordered: "Everything that is not needed will be sent to the Shouchun Treasury, and money will be used to send troops in the future." In addition, the value of the gifts sent from various places should be counted, and where the value was the highest, people should be sent to check the finances to see if there was any official fraud. ”

Where the gifts are valuable, Cao Shuo asks people to check their financial situation.

Pang Tong hesitated and reminded: "Is it inappropriate for the lord to do this?" ”

"What's wrong?" Cao Shuo asked.

"When the lord ascended the throne, it is reasonable to send gifts from all over the country to congratulate him." Pang Tong replied: "The officials who sent the gifts did not seek merit, at least they also wanted to be innocent. The more you send, the more your finances will be checked, and who will dare to do this in the future? ”

"The finances of various localities are better, what are the ways through which they accumulate wealth?" Cao Shuo said: "If you don't check it carefully, corruption is likely to become common from now on." I'm not against human relations, but I'm against such extravagant gifts. In order to avoid corruption and incurable corruption in the future, of course, we must start from this time. ”

"I see." Pang Tong replied: "Let people count it later." ”

He and Pang Tongdao watched the servants count and carry the gifts, and Cao Shuo returned to the back house.

And Pang Tong arranged manpower to transport all the gifts that were not needed for the celebration to the Shouchun Mansion.

Back at the back house, Cao Shuo went directly to Yuan Fang's residence.

When he arrived at the door, he saw Ding Yao's maid standing in the small courtyard.

Since coming to Shouchun, Ding Yao seems to like coming to Yuan Fang very much.

Yuan Fang always called Zhen Mi and the foot trainer over to accompany her.

When Cao Shuo was away, Ding Yao would not be as boring as he was in Yecheng as usual.

"Mother here?" Walking into the small courtyard, Cao Shuo asked Ding Yao's maid.

The maid greeted him, bowed her head and replied, "Not only the old lady, but also several other ladies from Yecheng." ”

"Why haven't you seen the other ladies' maids?" Cao Shuo glanced around the room, but did not see the other ladies' maids.

"It's too small to accommodate so many people, so they'll go back first." The maid replied, "When the ladies are leaving, they will come to greet them." ”

Cao Shuo nodded and walked into the house.

When he entered the house, he heard the laughter of many women coming from the inner room.

Judging from the voice, there are really not a few ladies who come here.

The woman who spoke did not include Yuan Fang and Zhen Mi.

Walking to the door of the inner room, Cao Shuo stopped: "I heard that the mother is here, and the child greets him." ”

The voice of talking inside stopped, and then Ding Yao's voice came out: "It's all here, why don't you come into the house to talk?" ”

"I don't know what my mother and the wives are talking about, I'm afraid I'll rush in and collide." Cao Shuo replied: "Therefore, I greet my mother, and I dare to enter only when I am called." ”

Ding Yao didn't respond immediately, and Cao Shuo heard her say to the others: "Zirong is getting more and more sensible, we are just chatting, and he can actually think of a collision." ”

"Isn't it good for the son to be sensible?" The woman who sounded like Mrs. Huan said: "I heard that the prince is going to ascend the throne and become the emperor recently, and the lady will be the queen mother in the future, which is really gratifying." ”

"There's nothing to congratulate." Ding Yao replied: "Others have been called emperors for a long time, and Zirong only thought of becoming emperors, but he is already a lot behind. ”

"No matter how long you are the emperor, in my opinion, the most popular one is still Zirong Gongzi." Another lady said: "When we left Yecheng, how dangerous was the situation? If it weren't for Childe's proper planning, I'm afraid none of us would have been able to leave. ”

"You only know the danger of our journey, how can you possibly know what Madame and Zirong Gongzi are facing?" The ladies patted Ding Yao's sycophants, one after another: "What are the things we met compared to what Mrs. and Son-in-law met?" ”

The ladies are full of sycophants, and Ding Yao seems to be very useful.

After they filmed for a while, the room fell silent, apparently Ding Yao stopped the ladies from continuing to shoot.

"Don't stand outside either." Ding Yao's voice came out: "Standing outside, could it be that we all feel that we are all women's families and have nothing to say to us?" ”

"Don't dare!" Cao Shuo responded, and then walked into the room.

Sure enough, except for Ding Yao in the room, the ladies from Yecheng were all there.

The ladies sat in the room, while Yuan Fang, Zhen Mi, and the foot trainer stood beside them.

Cao Shuo walked in, and all the ladies got up to salute.

Returning the salute to the ladies, Cao Shuo faced Ding Yao: "I've seen my mother." ”

"I should have come here to find your wife." Ding Yao smiled lightly: "But I didn't expect to be disturbed by us." ”

"It's also a blessing for my mother to come to Madame from time to time." Cao Shuo replied: "What do I think is disturbing us? ”

"When I say that, I can't tell what I think in my heart." Ding Yao sighed lightly: "When I was in Yecheng, I could see you every day when you went back." Now that I'm here in Shouchun, I can't see you. I can't help it, so I can only come to my daughter-in-law and wait to see if my good son has forgotten his mother. ”

"Mother is serious." Cao Shuo replied: "How dare I? ”

"I know you're busy, and you have something to do every day." Ding Yao said: "Yuan Fang also told me, your wives have no complaints, is it possible that I will blame you?" ”

Cao Shuo didn't say anything.

He has long regarded Ding Yao as his biological mother.

Ding Yao said a few words to him, which was reasonable and reasonable, and he should listen to it.

"I heard that Shouchun is encouraging you to become emperor, what do you think?" Ding Yao diverted the topic and asked about Cao Shuo's claim to be emperor.
