Chapter 184: Upstart
I was anxious to the front of the Manna Palace, only to see the white and clean hall reflected in the clear crystal candlelight like tears, ethereal and illusory, the beautiful scenery is like a flower across the clouds, making people unable to distinguish where is the real scene and where is the reflection.
Two corners of the platform in front of the palace, the east is a sundial, and the west is set up Jialiang.
The hall is painted with colorful decorations, and the throne and screen are displayed inside; There are smokers, incense pavilions, and candlesticks on both sides, and the bright candlelight is reflected, illuminating the entire hall with scorching brilliance.
There was a tall and handsome man sitting on the throne of the hall, and a white old man wearing a black official hat stood beside him. ”
This nervousness, her heart was pounding, her mind was suddenly blank, and she didn't know whether to call long live or Your Majesty, so she thought of a casual line of worship in a hurry.
The saint looked at her carefully for a long time from a long distance, and then walked forward quickly and called happily: "Su Yiniang." ”
Suning'er was frightened, and replied anxiously: "Yes, the slave family is exact." ”
The sage said in a gentle tone: "Hurry up, you don't have to be polite when you enter the palace for the first time." ”
Su Ning'er slowly stood up, buried her head tightly, and didn't dare to look directly at the saint Long Yan.
The sage couldn't help laughing: "I didn't expect Su Yiniang, a newly talented woman who is famous in Chang'an City, to be such a shy and delicate jade, there is no one else in this hall, and the lady doesn't need to be afraid, just like in her own home." ”
Su Ning'er's heart tightened again, and a faint flush appeared on her face, and she replied curtly: "Thanks to the grace of the saint, but the saint is the proud son, and the slave family does not dare to make a mistake." ”
The sage smiled gently, and immediately ordered the attendant to give him a seat, and then signaled: "I have specially prepared some refreshments, Su Yiniang does not have to be restrained, come and taste it, whether it suits your appetite." ”
Suning'er looked at the various pastries in front of her with bright colors and good shapes, but her mouth was greedy, she picked up a piece at random and fed it to her mouth, chewed it gently for a while, only to feel sweet and refreshing, with endless aftertaste, which was completely different from what she had eaten before.
The sage couldn't wait to ask, "What's the matter, Su Yiniang still thinks it suits your taste?" ”
Suning'er nodded in fear, still savoring the taste.
Seeing that the saint was so earnest, she felt more and more unclear in her heart, and she didn't know what he was calling her over today.
The sage sat down on the other side of the desk, and when he saw that she was eating very sweetly, he was overjoyed, and commanded, "These pastries are my favorite on weekdays, and I rarely share them with others. ”
The internal official behind him also smiled and said: "These pastry processes are extremely exquisite, knowing that the lady is going to enter the palace today, the saint ordered the imperial dining room to cook carefully last night, the lady should not live up to the saint's kindness." ”
Suning'er was even more flattered, such a strong favor was not something she dared to imagine.
"Mouthy."
The saint angrily reprimanded the internal official, and then looked at Sun Ning'er with warm eyes, and those narrow eyes fell on her quietly.
Su Ning'er was stared at by him like this, uncomfortable, and said tremblingly: "The saint thinks that the slave family's makeup is inappropriate? ”
The sage shook his head slowly: "I heard that the Su family has been a business portal for generations, and there has never been a well-educated person, a mother and a daughter, but in such a family background, he is full of poetry, books, etiquette and music, I think that Su Yilang has taught you a lot over the years, right?" ”
"Oh, back to the holy words", Su Ning'er replied against his will: "Although the family is a businessman, the elders also value their children's talents, and when they were young, they invited Mr. to teach the younger generations in the house, and the uncle in the family often taught the sisters, it is the emperor's grace, the court is prosperous, and the husband is responsible, and the heart must always remember to serve the emperor." ”
"Hmm", the sage was very pleased, turned his head to look at the internal official beside him, and said hesitantly: "Wen Qing, I heard that Su Yilang donated a lot of silver money to the imperial court at the beginning of the year to enrich the treasury?" ”
The internal official next to him was Wen Jiqing, a new upstart in the Northern Ya, and when he heard the sage mention this matter, he didn't forget to praise it at this moment: "It is true, Su Yilang has handed over countless silk and silk cloths for the imperial court over the years, and a large part of the silk with the Turkic Yima next year will also come from Su Fu." ”
"It's rare for these businessmen to have such loyalty, it's really valuable", the sage frowned suddenly, and continued: "These loyal and good families must not be neglected, but the Tao family, recently the palace has repeatedly reported that the Tao family sent to the palace of the imperial products are shoddy, which is really insulting to my royal dignity." ”
Wen Jiqing immediately replied: "What the sage said is extremely true, and the old slave is already investigating this matter thoroughly. ”
"In my opinion, there is no need to investigate thoroughly, the Tao family is always Lieutenant Tian's relatives, if the Tao family is strictly dealt with because of this matter, it will also make Tian Qing's face gloomy, after all, he has served me for all these years, let him save some face, but in the future, the supply and demand in this palace can no longer be handed over to the Tao family."
After hesitating for a moment, the sage suddenly smiled: "Su Yilang is a reliable person, he can teach a gentle and dignified woman like Yi Niang, he must be extremely sincere in doing things, so it is better for the Su family to take care of these things." ”
Wen Jiqing responded respectfully, glanced at Suning'er slightly, and a strange smile appeared on his face.
For Wen Jiqing, Suning'er still has some impressions, and when she was in the Ding'an Hou Mansion before, she heard Ye Youtong and King Qing mention that it was they who raised them to fight against the Tian family.
The sage removed the Tao family from the book of confessions with one sentence, which directly pushed the Su family to the cusp.
But after all, the holy order is difficult to do, and the Tao family has today's evil consequences are all self-inflicted, even if the imperial system of this porcelain kiln will not fall to the Su family, it is impossible to hand it over to the Tao family.
Thinking about it, her Su family can take advantage of this cheapness.
Therefore, she did not hesitate to reply to the sage: "The slave family is grateful for the favor of the sage for my uncle, and the Su family will definitely not disappoint the trust of the sage, and will definitely do this errand well." ”
Wen Jiqing's deep eyes hidden under his thick eyebrows have always shone with a soft light, looking at what Suning was always trying to convey when he was a child, which is very flattering.
Seeing Suning'er's thanksgiving, he hurriedly replied for the saint: "The saint has always had clear rewards and punishments, and those who are loyal to the saint, the saint will never treat him lightly. ”
Over, he couldn't help but smile gloomily.
Suning'er raised her eyes and glanced at him, always feeling that what he said didn't seem to be simply telling herself, I was afraid that she had another deep meaning.
Over the years, the Tian brothers have been in power, relying on the trust of Shengrao, and have been trying their best to make money outside, and this warm season is fresh and high, and it is inevitable that the same idea will be born of the Tian family brothers.
As the saying goes, people die for money, birds die for food, like these eunuchs in the palace are not overwhelmed, once they gain power, the greed in their hearts will be released madly.
Su Ning'er faintly noticed that this eunuch also wanted to use the power of the Su family to help him collect money.
