finally saw the outline of Daxing City, and in three months, Wang Xiaolai came back again.

He stood on the wheel, and laughed loudly in the direction of Daxing City: "I didn't expect Daxing City, Lao Tzu is back again." ”

On the side, Shen Xiping looked at Wang Xiaolai as if he was looking at an idiot.

The people who passed by the city gate also whispered and muttered that the commander standing on the wheel of the carriage must not be demented.

When the convoy entered the city gate, Narcissus, who was sent by the empress to greet her, was already impatient.

Seeing Wang Xiaolai, he walked over directly.

Originally, Wang Xiaolai was still pinching his waist, looking incredible, but after seeing Narcissus, he immediately got off the wheel, and ran to him like a baby, and said with a smile: "Yo, Sister Narcissus, why are you here?" ”

Narcissus looked at Wang Xiaolai twice, I don't know why, she felt uncomfortable when she saw Wang Xiaolai, probably because she grew up beside Lu Gongyou since she was a child, Narcissus has also developed a calm and unfazed character, for Wang Xiaolai, who is babbling and not telling half the truth in his mouth, to be honest, Narcissus is really a little unaccustomed.

"Your Majesty is waiting for you in the Imperial Study." Narcissus Road.

Wang Xiaolai nodded hurriedly, for fear that he would move slowly and make Narcissus unhappy and beaten.

Lead the team to the direction of the imperial city, after entering, all the staff dismounted and got out of the car, Sui Yang Tie ordered, no one, at any time, is not allowed to drive into the palace.

"Yo, Lord Wang, you're finally back."

On the edge of the imperial city, there is still a eunuch waiting, who is the father-in-law of Shangshan.

He was recently transferred due to merit and no longer had to work in the imperial dining room.

Now, he was sent by the empress to wait in front of the palace to welcome Wang Xiaolai.

For Father-in-law Le, to be honest, Wang Xiaolai has no impression, but as the so-called reaching out and not hitting the smiling person, Wang Xiaolai followed him politely.

"Don't talk nonsense, Grandpa Le, you lead everyone to the internal guard, and I'll take people to see Your Majesty."

Facing Narcissus, Grandpa Le was still a little afraid, and after nodding, he led the Yulin Army led by Shen Xiping in the direction of the inner guard.

As for Shu Jiuchai, who was traveling with her, Narcissus thought about it and had to let her go along.

Rushing all the way to the imperial study, Wang Xiaolai also asked Narcissus: "Why is Your Majesty calling me in such a hurry?" I haven't even changed my clothes. ”

The narcissus walked in front without looking back, and when he heard Wang Xiaolai's words, he said, "Aren't you always so sloppy?" ”

Wang Xiaolai: "···"

came to the imperial study, Shu Jiuchai was waiting outside, and Narcissus led Wang Xiaolai in.

"Your Majesty, Wang Xiao has arrived."

Entering the imperial study, Narcissus shouted softly.

The empress, who was leaning on the dragon book case with her cheeks leaning on the small squint, opened her eyes when she heard the sound, and the eyes that were originally as beautiful as ink gems were covered with bloodshot at the moment, and it seemed that she had not rested for several days.

"Little Laizi, you're here."

Wang Xiaolai caught up with two steps, patted his clothes, knelt on one knee, and said with a grin: "Your Majesty, I'm back." ”

The empress yawned, raised her hand and motioned for Wang Xiaolai to get up, and then, she stood up and went down the hall, went to Wang Xiaolai, looked at Wang Xiaolai's face twice, and smiled: "In the past few months, I have lost a lot of weight." ”

Wang Xiaolai touched his face and asked, "Really?" ”

The empress snorted.

"By the way, Your Majesty, I have a gift for you."

The empress was still a little curious: "Gift, what gift?" ”

Then Wang Xiaolai took out the wooden plaque he bought in Yangzhou City from the pair of clothes on his chest, slipped it in his hand, and showed off to the empress: "Look." ”

The empress was stunned: "What is this?" ”

Wang Xiaolai sorted out the red rope of the brand, and put it on the empress's head, and said: "This is what I bought in Yangzhou City, so I can avoid evil." ”

Originally, Narcissus was very annoyed when she saw Wang Xiaolai's outrageous actions next to her, and wanted to have a seizure, but because the empress didn't speak, she didn't dare to move.

Putting on the brand, Wang Xiaolai took a step back and hugged his arms: "Don't say it, Your Majesty, you look good with it." ”

The empress looked down at the wooden sign and smiled: "Little Laizi, you have a heart, but I have something to tell you." ”

"What's the matter?"

The empress instructed Narcissus: "Go and bring some tea." ”

"Yes."

After taking the narcissus away, the empress stretched out her hand and grabbed Wang Xiaolai, and just as she was about to speak, Wang Xiaolai sighed, as if she remembered something.

"By the way, Your Majesty, how much money do you guess He Bingwen has embezzled in the past three years?"

Wang Xiaolai asked.

The empress looked back at him: "How much?" ”

Wang Xiaolai stretched out two fingers: "It's 20 million taels." ”

The empress frowned when she heard this: "So much? ”

"Your Majesty also thinks it's too much, right, I took out half of the 20 million taels and gave it to the poor people in Yangzhou City, and I brought the other half back, Your Majesty, don't you always say that the treasury is empty and the treasury is empty, now I can relieve a lot of anger."

The empress looked at Wang Xiaolai's eyebrows and danced with a smile, and smiled, smiling very happily: "Well done, I thought you would take some of the 20 million taels, but I didn't expect that you were wrong." ”

Wang Xiaolai pouted and said, "Your Majesty, look at what you said, am I that kind of person?" ”

The empress looked at Wang Xiaolai faintly: "Yes." ”

Wang Xiaolai: "···"

"Alright, I've got something to tell you."

Finally remembering what she was going to say, the empress hurriedly said.

Wang Xiaolai nodded: "Your Majesty, you say." ”

The empress pulled Wang Xiao to the steps of the door and sat down, and happened to see Shu Jiuchai standing in front of the jade railing next to her, and she was stunned.

Shu Jiuchai saw the empress and hurriedly saluted.

"Isn't she supposed to be in the paper mill, why did she come here with you, Xiao Laizi?" The empress asked in amazement.

Wang Xiaolai scratched his head and told him what had happened, but the empress smiled when she heard it, and looked at Wang Xiaolai: "Your kid is very prosperous." ”

Wang Xiaolai sneered, and said to Shu Jiuchai: "Jiuchai, you go elsewhere first, Your Majesty has something to tell me." ”

Shu Jiuchai nodded when he heard this, turned around and left.

After only the empress and Wang Xiaolai were left, the empress sighed, looked at Wang Xiaolai, and said, "Little Laizi, I have encountered a difficulty. ”

Wang Xiaolai asked tentatively: "What is the difficulty?" Is it about the Enko ceremony? ”

The empress was surprised: "So you know? ”

Wang Xiaolai nodded: "I know a little, not much." ”

The empress said: "That's good, the provincial I will explain it to you." ”

"As you know, in this Enke ceremony, there are thirty-six people on the list, all of whom are students from the north, especially the Qingzhou Party. And in the south, there is no one, Xiao Laizi, I asked Uncle Huang, asked Liu Xiangguo, there is no good solution, seeing that the Enke ceremony is about to start this afternoon, do you have any good ideas? ”

Wang Xiaolai sighed and said, "To be honest, Your Majesty, I have been thinking about this question for the past two days. ”

The empress's eyes lit up: "Have you thought of a good solution?" ”

Wang Xiaolai was a little embarrassed: "Hurry, hurry." ”

The empress squinted at him: "Little Laizi, I promise you, if you can solve this matter for me, the 10 million taels you brought back..."

Before he finished speaking, Wang Xiaolai grabbed the conversation: "Just give it to me?" ”

"Go, what do you want?" The empress said angrily: "What are you going to use?" ”

"Well, how much did you give me, Your Majesty?"

The Empress held out a finger.

"A million taels?"

The Empress shook her head.

"One hundred thousand?"

The empress still shook her head, struggled for a moment, and said: "Ten thousand, just ten thousand taels, Xiao Laizi, do you have a good way, just like how to deal with the refugee problem last time." ”

Wang Xiaolai seemed to be a little disgusted with the lack of money, and when the empress saw this, she gritted her teeth: "It's a big deal, I will give you a promotion." ”

When it came to promotion, Wang Xiaolai became energetic: "Really fake? Your Majesty, you are the Son of Heaven, but you are not a Mengren. ”

The empress looked disgusted: "You think I look like you." ”

Wang Xiaolai: "···"

"It's easy to do, it's not difficult to say this, it's not easy to say, but it's mainly up to who solves it."

Wang Xiaolai's words made the empress's face appear happy.

"What?"

Wang Xiaolai said: "The problem now is that only the northern students are on the list, and there is no southern student, Your Majesty, you are mainly embarrassed here, one is afraid that others will say that Sui Yang is only half of the mountains and rivers?" The two are probably afraid that the students in the south will not be able to live, right? ”

Hearing this, the empress nodded: "Then do you have any good ideas?" ”
