"Is Tongtong hot? Why are your faces red? The eighth master asked with a smile.

"Of course it's hot to soak your feet!" Mao Tongtong said stiffly.

rubbed his big feet on Mao Tongtong's little feet, and the eighth master smiled again: "It seems that the effect of this foot soak is good, and it warms up Tongtong so quickly." ”

Mao Tongtong pursed her lips and didn't speak, raised her foot and stepped on the eighth master's foot, "Hmph, the master is bad!" ”

"Ouch!" The eighth master pretended to scream, looked at Mao Tongtong and said, "Why did the master make it bad?" Didn't Tongtong let the master soak his feet together? ”

"Then, that master can't just move around!" Mao Tongtong said.

This is the first time she has soaked her feet in the same wooden basin as the eighth master. She hadn't thought about it that much just now, but now the feet of both of them were crowded into this small footbasin, and she suddenly became shy. The eighth master also deliberately rubbed her with his foot, isn't it bad?

The eighth master laughed again, and rubbed Mao Tongtong's feet again, "The basin is too small, and the master touched it a little bit of activity, so I can't blame the master." ”

Mao Tongtong didn't bother to argue with this person, obviously deliberately teasing her!

soaked their feet, drank ginger soup again, and the two of them had supper again.

The meal of the palace banquet is really indescribable. Even the eighth master, who enters the palace every year, still can't bear it.

But there's no way around it. There are so many people, if it is too late to get one dish at a time, they can only make it first and then put it in the steaming drawer to keep warm. When it is served to the main hall, it is strange that the dish can be delicious.

By the time the two of them had supper, the night was getting deeper and deeper. The wind was howling outside, but it was warm inside. The eighth master hugged Mao Tongtong and lay on the bed, and soon fell asleep. Today is a tossed day, and I am tired early.

After the Gold Festival, the officials who went to Beijing to report on their work were successively summoned by Kangxi, and then appointed new official positions, and Mao Mingxuan was no exception.

This was his first appearance after leaving Beijing three years ago.

Standing at the door of the Qianqing Palace, Mao Mingxuan's state of mind was no longer the same as it was at the beginning. At that time, he was thinking about how to title the gold list, but at this moment he was thinking about what Kangxi would ask him and what official position he would arrange.

"Master Mao go in, the emperor is already waiting." Li Dequan came out and said.

He still remembers the scene of the emperor's hand-picked champion in the Qianqing Palace three years ago, after all, it is the first champion with three yuan in so many years. He still remembered the excitement in the emperor's eyes. You must know that the emperor has been in power for many years, and his feelings are rarely so exposed.

Looking at this champion now, he is still as honored and disgraced as he was back then, and his eyebrows and eyes seem to be more calm.

Mao Mingxuan nodded slightly, said "There is labor", and entered the Qianqing Palace.

Today, Kangxi only summoned him. After saluting, Mao Mingxuan stood with his hands down, waiting for Kangxi to ask questions.

"I have looked at the assessment of you by the officials, and your performance in the past three years has been good." Kangxi praised as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Wechen still has a lot of shortcomings, and he should have done better." Mao Mingxuan said.

After all, he is new to officialdom, inexperienced, and some things are not well thought out. Many of the decisions were also made little by little in the subsequent implementation process.

Not arrogant or impatient, knowing clearly, Kangxi nodded in his heart, very satisfied with Mao Mingxuan's performance.

Back then, he felt that Mao Mingxuan had a different stability from that of adults, but now this has not changed.

"Have you ever thought about where you will be an official next?" Kangxi asked.

"Wechen still wants to stay in Zibo." Mao Mingxuan said.

"Why?" Kangxi asked quietly.

"Weichen still has some things to do, thinking that he will stay for another three years so that the people can live a better life." Mao Mingxuan replied truthfully.

"Three more years? Even if it's still a prefectural ordinance? Kangxi asked.

"Yes, Weichen is willing to be a county magistrate for another three years!" Mao Mingxuan replied without hesitation.

"Don't want to be promoted?" Kangxi asked again.

"Yes!" Mao Mingxuan replied very simply. Without waiting for Kangxi to ask again, he said: "But Weichen wants to do things more steadily." Wechen also believes that as long as Wechen can do things in a down-to-earth manner, the emperor will promote Wechen! ”

This is different from the rhetoric when facing the eighth master. It was Mao Mingxuan who deliberately changed. In front of the emperor, you can make progress!

"You're real." A smile flashed in Kangxi's eyes. That's a bit of an interesting answer.

Mao Mingxuan didn't answer, in front of this emperor who ascended the throne at the age of 8 and governed the country prosperously, if he blindly brushed his heart, he would regret it!

"Since you are thinking about the people on that side, then continue to be an official there." Kangxi Road.

"Yes, Wechen obeys." Mao Mingxuan said busily.

"Let's be promoted to a six-way sentence." Kangxi said again.

"Huh?" Mao Mingxuan glanced up at Kangxi and couldn't help but be stunned. Just now he thought he was still the county!

"Don't you want to be promoted? I have perfected you! If you don't do a good job, I can remove you from your position! Kangxi said.

Directly promoted from seven to six, this is a two-level crossing, which really surprised Mao Mingxuan, he thought that he would be promoted from six at most.

"We're thanking you!" Mao Mingxuan hurriedly said again.

Coming out of the palace, Mao Mingxuan let out a long sigh of relief. Even if he was as calm as him, the face saint was still a little nervous. After all, the future of the relationship cannot be completely indifferent.

But the result was already an unexpected surprise. The corners of Mao Mingxuan's mouth couldn't help but show a smile.

It's just that after laughing, Mao Mingxuan's heart rose a little sadly. The official position is decided, he is leaving Beijing to take up his post, and he will not be able to see Amma, Eniang and his sister for another three years.

After returning home, Chen and Mao Chengyun were waiting for news from Mao Mingxuan. Seeing that he didn't seem to be happy, the two exchanged a look. Is this reprimanded by the emperor? The couple was going to ask about the results, but it would be difficult to speak.

"Amma, Eniang, Erchen has to leave Beijing tomorrow. Can you invite Tongtong over for dinner tonight? Mao Mingxuan took the initiative to speak.

"Tomorrow? In such a hurry? Chen was stunned.

"The appointment has already been made, so it is natural to arrive early. Besides, I have to go back to pick up Fleur and Haoyu. Mao Mingxuan said.

"Is this not staying in Zibo? The emperor has promoted you? Mao asked the carrier.

"Well, the Liutong sentence is still in Shandong." Mao Mingxuan said.

"Six?" Mao Chengyun and Chen both repeated in surprise, and when they saw Mao Mingxuan nodding, the two of them suddenly became happy!

"You're a great boy! It's six! "Mao Chengyun has to admire the fact that he is an official, and his son himself is much more powerful! Three years to two levels, this speed is too fast!

"Don't live up to the emperor's trust!" Mao said solemnly.

"Ama rest assured, Erchen knows it." Mao Mingxuan said with a smile.

"I asked someone to send a letter to Tongtong, so that she was also happy! She's definitely coming tonight! Chen smiled.
