(6) Gift-giving
"Even my lord is good?"
"Thank you Lord Li and Master Gao for remembering, it's no big deal."
The Chinese New Year will be in three or two days, and today is the last court meeting this year. Therefore, although even Qingjue's body has not healed, he also came to the main hall early.
"The emperor has arrived."
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live."
"Zhongqing is flat."
On the high seat, Feng Yusheng saw at a glance that among the ministers, the only person in a white official uniform, asked, "Lian Qing is in good health?" ”
"Emperor Xie remembers, it's good."
"Haha, that's good, it is said that Lian Qing has been on vacation due to illness in the past few days, and the efficiency of your Duxing Division has been much lower, and even the Criminal Department has been a lot more idle."
"Weichen should be damned, this body is really too unlucky."
"It's okay, it's okay, Lian Qing has to take good care of herself."
Feng Yusheng said with a smile: "Today, do you Aiqing have something to play?" If there is nothing to do, then retire, close to the next year, you Aiqing can take advantage of these days to have a good rest. ”
"Thank you for the emperor's memory."
The ministers bowed to the ground, and only when they heard the emperor's footsteps go farther and farther until they disappeared did they stand up one by one.
"It's almost the New Year, even adults should take good care of themselves."
Hundreds of officials walked out of the hall one after another, and Cai Yong walked side by side with Lian Qingjue again, saying meaningfully.
"Cheng Prime Minister's auspicious words."
Lian Qingjue arched his hand, smiled lightly and looked at Cai Yong, who obviously had a sharp knife in his eyes, but suddenly seemed to say to himself:
"Alas, this Wu Jingtang's case, I'm afraid it will be handled quickly."
"Hmph."
With an obvious cold snort, Cai Yong brushed his sleeves away.
"Isn't it really good to be an adult?"
At the door of the main hall, Gu Caizhi seemed to be waiting deliberately, and when he saw Cai Yong leaving with a displeased face, he rushed to the person who walked out of the door.
"Lord Gu cares about Lian?"
Lian Qingjue gathered his cloak and said with a smile.
"As a colleague, I have to care."
Gu Caizhi glanced at Lian Qingjue calmly, then turned around and left, but he couldn't help but curse himself in his heart, why did he ask that person so many things.
"Haha."
Lian Qingjue unexpectedly felt that he was in a good mood, so he hummed an unknown tune and walked slowly towards the palace gate.
……
"Brother, come and eat, how do you feel today?"
When I got home, Lian Qingwan happened to be having breakfast, so Lian Qingjue went over and sat down and slowly drank the sweet and fragrant hot porridge in the bowl.
"It's okay, don't worry."
"That's good." Lian Qingwan said while eating: "Our Prison Division can finally rest for a few days." ”
"Heh, don't you wish you were on duty every day? How could you be so happy this time? ”
"Yes, is there one?"
Lian Qingwan smiled wryly.
"Ah Wan, how are you and that Liu Tinglan? If you like him, get married early. ”
Even Qingjue stopped laughing with her, just put down the dishes and chopsticks, and looked at her sister with some seriousness.
"I'll be with him, that's it."
Lian Qingwan lowered her head, and the chopsticks kept poking at a bun on the plate.
"Heh, the self-proclaimed woman doesn't let the woman with the eyebrows catch it quickly, and she's also shy."
Lian Qingjue couldn't help laughing, and then leaned to the side to avoid the oncoming palm.
"Ah Wan, my current body can't withstand your palm."
"Hmph, eat your buns."
Lian Qingwan put the skinless bun she had tied into Lian Qingjue's plate, clapped her hands and walked out of the door.
"I'm going to find Liu Tinglan."
"Go, go, go."
Even Qingjue stood up and walked out, watching the people in the yard busy, carefully gluing the extremely realistic flowers made of colored paper to the bare branches one by one, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
I don't know, how many times can I watch such a festive scene?
"Childe, Master Gu of the Criminal Department sent someone to send a thousand-year-old blood ginseng, saying that it was for adults to replenish their bodies."
Just as he was out of his mind, suddenly the voice of the housekeeper Lian Pu came.
"Master Gu? It's hard for him to have a heart. ”
Lian Qingjue came back to his senses, looked at the little guy who was kneeling on the snow, holding a dark red brocade box with both hands, and said, "Get up and talk back." ”
"Master Xie."
Gu Huaigu stood up, presented the brocade box to Lian Qingjue, and said, "My family knows that Lord Lian is in poor health, so I sent the villain to send this thousand-year-old blood ginseng to the adult, and I wish the adult good health." ”
"Heh, this last sentence, but it was also said by your family?"
Lian Qingjue took the brocade box and looked at the little guy standing with his head hanging down funny.
"Hehe, this last sentence was added by the villain himself."
Seeing the little guy scratching his head a little embarrassed, Lian Qingjue couldn't help but wonder, Gu Caizhi's cold person comparable to ice and snow, there would be such a clever person next to him?
"You look up."
"Huh?"
"Well, it's beautiful."
Lian Qingjue looked at the little guy with some childishness, but there was a slight elegance between his eyebrows.
"What's your name?"
"The villain's name is Gu Huaigu."
"Gu Huaigu? That's a good name. ”
"Hehe, the name was given by the adults of my family."
"Are there all the people like you around your family?"
"Hehe, thank you for the compliment, but I am usually the only one around my family."
"Oh? Oh, I took the things, and thanked your family for me. ”
"Yes."
"Uncle Park, take him out."
"Yes."
"Adult, villain retires."
Lian Pu and the little guy named Gu Huaigu had already walked away, but Lian Qingjue stared at the brocade box in his hand, and there was a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth.
