Qiu Qi told Mrs. Yan about entering the palace today.

Listening to Qiu Qi, after only asking for a plaque with His Majesty's inscription in the end, Mrs. Yan was stunned for a moment when she started.

However, he quickly reacted that although entering the officialdom was more beneficial to the Hou Mansion, Qiu Qi's identity was a time bomb, and the more contact he had with people, the more dangerous it became.

So, it's okay not to enter the officialdom.

Anyway, she has lowered her requirements, just keep the family business, don't wait until the next generation is more down, she will be satisfied, and she can be regarded as worthy of the two generations of Hou Ye.

The husband is mediocre, and the son is not good enough, but this granddaughter is ......

Although it was a little chaotic before, but now I finally understand the situation and start planning for the Hou Mansion, which is actually quite good.

Mrs. Yan never doubted whether her granddaughter was replaced or something.

In her opinion, it's just that her granddaughter has grown up, or after something happened outside, she realized it.

That's why we're making progress like this.

The change in Qiu Qi is not obvious, and there is no particularly big move, it is the matter of ice making, and it is also through the hands of ancient books, so it will not easily attract the suspicion of others.

Whether it's riding archery or what, the original owner has practiced.

After all, she has to pretend to be a man, and she practices everything a man can do, just in case.

Especially in the matter of drinking, how many times has the original owner drunk and vomited, and how many times has he cried.

In the end, he locked himself in his room and increased the amount of alcohol he drank again and again.

Naturally, I was afraid that I would drink too much outside and expose my biggest secret.

These things can't be hidden from Mrs. Yan.

The original owner has practiced in private, so for Qiu Qi's current changes, there is no need for Qiu Qi to say, the old lady will automatically make up for it, Qiu Qi was stimulated outside, so she went back to practice hard.

"That's fine." After slowing down for a while, Mrs. Yan felt that she only asked for a plaque, which was actually very good, and she made a good impression in front of His Majesty, and then if something happened, it would be easier to ask Your Majesty again.

In addition, Qiu Qi can't enter the officialdom, so what other rewards are nothing for Mrs. Yan.

She runs the shops, Zhuangzi, and fields in the mansion very well, so the money in the Hou Mansion is not bad, not as good as the richest and richest elites, but it is not too bad.

After thinking about it, she was afraid that Qiu Qi would think too much, so Mrs. Yan took Qiu Qi's hand and said gently: "You did a good job, the people in the house are thin, and all we can do is keep it." ”

"Grandmother, don't worry, grandchildren will." Qiu Qi naturally guessed the thoughts of Old Lady Yan before doing this.

Not wanting the old lady to worry, Qiu Qi smiled slightly, and squeezed Mrs. Yan's hand to show that she had always understood in her heart.

After exchanging information and feelings, Qiu Qi stayed for dinner before getting up and going back to his yard.

I simply took a shower, scrubbed it, and leaned on the edge of the couch to read.

In the evening, it was finally a little cooler.

Qiu Qi leaned against the window again, but he didn't feel stuffy.

Liuliang was afraid that Qiu Qi would hurt his eyes when he read a book, so he deliberately lit two lamps.

Seeing this, Qiu Qi didn't stop him.

Because of his greed for giant ice cubes, Zuo Yi started the next day and frequently ran to the Hou Mansion.

There is no way, the big ice cube he brought back last time, after returning home, it was divided by his mother and sisters.

In the end, he didn't even catch a single ice slag.

The more he thought about it, the more angry Zuo Yi became, and he didn't take ice to the house recently, and he couldn't use it if he did.

I simply came here to rub in the autumn and lay under the whole tree, blowing huge ice cubes, this day is really beautiful.

Qiu Qi didn't drive anyone away, the other party played an assist, and he had to give some benefits.

But it's a little worthless ice, he blows it by himself, and two people use it, he is willing to come, and Qiu Qi will go with him.

There is no news in the palace about making ice for the time being, and it is estimated that the emperor is also in the middle of the experiment.

The reward of Qiu Qi is still in progress, so there is no need to rush.

Just looking at the time, it is about to be the end of August, and in September, it is time for Ning Fengyan to withdraw from the marriage.

All the roads have been paved, and now Qiu Qi is waiting to withdraw from this marriage, and then take advantage of the unexpected events later, pretend that he is infertile, and then adopt a child from the clan.

Yan Xiao is really not very good, Qiu Qi doesn't look down on him, and naturally he never thought about stepping into the other party's child.

As for Mrs. Yan's side, Qiu Qi also tested the other party's attitude towards Yan Xiao, which was not very good.

Then if you think about the idea of stepping from the clan, the other party will not be too opposed.

The method of making ice was not announced until early September.

The reason why it has dragged on for so long in the middle is actually because the courtiers, the emperor and the princes have been struggling about whether this method should be announced or whether it should be kept for royal commerce.

This matter is divided into two factions.

The emperor naturally supported the publication of the method to add a meritorious contribution to his own great cause.

However, several clans that controlled the royal business network felt that such a subtle method should be reserved for royal commerce and sold in the name of the royal family, which was a lot of income.

The cost is low, but the selling price can be very high.

The two sides fought for a long time because of a good word, and in the end it was the emperor's ambition that prevailed.

Then, the method was published.

Although the clan relatives were sad, after thinking about it, they were not unprofitable.

The raw material for this ice-making method is saltpeter, and they can't sell ice, but they can control the price of saltpeter.

Businessmen who want to make money can pick out benefits from anywhere.

Therefore, the clan relatives pulled it out, and they agreed to the proposal to publish the ice-making method.

Almost at the same time that the method of making ice was announced, someone came to the palace, saying that His Majesty Xuan Qiuqi had entered the palace to see him.

Mrs. Yan thought it was a follow-up question about the ice-making method, but she didn't think much about it, rewarded the chief eunuch who came to announce the decree, sent Qiu Qi to the carriage, and returned to her courtyard with confidence.

And Qiu Qi understood that this time she was facing the saint because Ning Fengyan was going to withdraw from the marriage.

It's just that no news has been revealed about this matter, and Qiu Qi didn't mention it too much to Mrs. Yan.

I don't have the ability to predict, so it's really hard to say now.

It was the confidant eunuch who followed the emperor, because of the method of making ice, Qiu Qi was valued by the emperor, the big eunuch thought, although this little marquis cannot be regarded as developed after that, but the status in His Majesty's heart will not be too low, and if he reveals a little news, it can be regarded as selling a favor.

Thinking of this, the big eunuch reminded him cryptically: "Let's see, the girl from the Fuguo Mansion has also entered the palace today." ”
