Su Baitong didn't go back to Su Mansion for a few days, and she looked at all the account books that Haitang brought from Qiliang City.
Because of the Chen Mansion being taken care of over there, Mrs. Chen is kind and kind, so the business of the Incense Pavilion over there is not bad.
Begonia has learned a lot of incense-making techniques, although the effect is not as good as Su Baitong's, but it can be regarded as passable.
Qiliang City is very close to the border with Qi State. Therefore, insect repellent incense has been in short supply.
Su Baitong sorted out the written prescription and handed it to Haitang, and asked her to go to the warehouse to identify the herbs and spices one by one, at which time Huixiang came in and said, "Someone from Su Mansion is here, saying that you are invited to go back, Miss." ”
Su Baitong didn't raise his head, and continued to write down a recipe, "What do you say?" ”
"It seems that Madame's distant nephew came to visit the house......"
"Oh." Without waiting for Huixiang to finish speaking, Su Baitong interrupted her, "Got it, you let that person go back first." ”
Huixiang was stunned, "Miss, what do you mean ......?"
"Call the one who sent the letter first." Su Baitong blew the ink on the paper that had not dried, obviously not wanting to go on with this topic anymore.
Hui Xiang knew her temper. So he went out and sent the people of Su Fu back.
"Did the young lady say when she would return home?" The little servant in Su Mansion said hurriedly, "When I came, Mrs. told me to ask the little one to invite the eldest lady back." ”
Huixiang was also impatient, and said, "If you want to go back, go back, what so much nonsense!" ”
The little girl didn't want to go, his mouth was moving and he wanted to say something, and at this moment, there was a sound of horses' hooves on the street outside. Passers-by stopped to watch.
I saw a group of palace guards come to the door of the Incense Pavilion, and a person dressed as an inner chamberlain entered the Incense Pavilion and said in a thin voice: "The emperor summoned the concubine of the Su Mansion, Su Baitong, and asked Miss Su to work hard with our family." "Yadong Yuba.
Su Fu's little guy stared at him in shock.
Huixiang hurriedly entered the house to deliver a letter to Su Baitong. After a while, Su Baitong finished changing clothes. Come out and greet the chamberlain.
Entering the palace gate, Su Baitong just got off the sedan chair and saw Jia's father-in-law waiting there with a smile.
"Miss Su, be careful, our family will help you." He stretched out his hand and grabbed Su Baitong's arm.
Su Baitong knew that this was just his politeness, how could he really let him support, so he stuffed the red reward hidden in his sleeve.
"My father-in-law kept it to buy a glass of wine to eat."
Father-in-law Jia pinched the thick silver ticket in the red envelope, and smiled from ear to ear, "Miss Su is too polite, it's all her own family......" They walked in as they spoke.
"I don't know why the emperor summoned him?" Su Baitong asked casually.
Something like this. Generally speaking, the chamberlain would not speak, but because Gonggong Jia accepted her silver just now, he booed: "Miss Su, don't be afraid,...... Maybe it's a good thing, you can take care of it. ”
Su Baitong settled down and followed Gonggong Jia into the Wanhe Palace.
Through the jade screen, Su Baitong faintly heard the sound of talking from inside.
Father-in-law Jia immediately stopped his steps, Su Baitong also stopped, and the two stood quietly outside the screen.
"Master Su, I heard that you are a little dissatisfied with your third brother's case?" The Emperor's voice came out clearly.
"Weichen doesn't dare, the state has national laws, the family has family rules, the third brother of Weichen as an official does not serve the imperial court, but he is greedy for military rations in private, and he should be punished according to the law."
It's Su Mingtang's voice!
Su Baitong couldn't help but glance at Gonggong Jia beside him.
Gonggong Jia smiled, as if he had long known that Master Su was talking to the emperor inside.
Suddenly, Su Baitong had an epiphany, but she was afraid that the emperor deliberately asked Gonggong Jia to take her to stand here, in order to listen to how Su Mingtang talked back to the emperor.
So she stood there quietly, listening to the movement inside.
"In this way, Lord Su can be regarded as a loyal minister?" The emperor raised his eyes and glanced at Su Mingtang, who was standing with his head hanging down.
Su Mingtang only felt a cold sweat break out all over his body.
There is no way to answer a question like this.
If he admits that he is a loyal servant, then the emperor may hold on to the previous impeachment of him, but if he denies it......
That would be tantamount to directly condemning oneself to death.
As a courtier, dare to be disloyal to the emperor?
Su Mingtang's lips moved, and he couldn't speak for a long time.
The emperor was silent for a while, and said faintly: "I know that you have a good daughter, who is decent and generous, who is a good person, and who is also very fragrant. ”
Su Mingtang was stunned, he didn't expect the emperor to propose his eldest daughter.
"How old is she?"
Su Mingtang swallowed his saliva: "If you go back to the emperor, it's only thirteen this year." ”
The emperor bowed his head, "Can you be a match?" ”
Su Mingtang suddenly remembered that the Xing family annoyed him every day a few days ago and persuaded him to marry Su Baitong to the Marquis of Anqing's mansion.
"Not yet." He quickly shook his head.
It's really sleepy and meets a pillow.
"In that case, then I will be a match......maker," the emperor said lightly.
Su Mingtang's heart suddenly rose to his throat.
Although he is a minister, his daughter is not yet noble enough for the emperor to be a matchmaker for her, what a grace this is......
The sudden excitement almost made him faint.
He hurriedly bowed his head and said, "If you can have the emperor's grace, how can the little girl in the family be able to do it...... I'm really afraid that I will lose my holy hopes...... It's just that I don't know which family the emperor is talking about? ”
The emperor said quietly: "This person I mentioned can be regarded as a talent, and he has been very popular recently, although your daughter's identity is not worthy of him, but as long as you nod as a father, I will naturally think of her to be worthy of this person." ”
Su Mingtang's eyes widened in surprise.
Who is this person the emperor is talking about?
He couldn't figure it out at all.
can make his daughter unworthy...... It must be that the status of the family is higher than that of their Ministry of Shangshu......
He quickly went through all the families of his colleagues who had sons in his mind, but he couldn't find anyone who could match them.
"I don't know what kind of official position this person is?" Su Mingtang asked cautiously.
"How many official positions?" The Emperor burst into laughter, as if he had heard the funniest joke.
Su Mingtang didn't dare to laugh, but he didn't dare to keep his face strained, so he had to stand there grinning.
After waiting for the emperor to laugh enough, he said to Su Mingtang: "The person I am talking about is the Scarlet King, my sixth prince, how many official positions does Lord Su want him?" ”
Su Mingtang bit his tongue suddenly.
Who is going to marry his daughter? His Royal Highness the Scarlet King, the current six princes?
The emperor's meaning couldn't be more obvious, no matter how many official positions he has, this is not just a matter of his words.
Su Mingtang stood there stiffly, speechless for a long time.
"Master Su, are you willing to marry this family?"
Su Mingtang came to his senses violently, and fell to his knees with a puff, "Weichen obeys the order." ”
The emperor is a big matchmaker, he dares to say that he is unwilling?
