December.

Liu Quan walked into the hall with a gift slip and a brocade box.

"Xiangye, the list of congratulatory gifts sent by officials from all over the country has been sorted out."

"I'll see."

Li Yunsheng opened the gift list and nodded with satisfaction.

In the past year, these people have made a lot of money because of reselling grain.

The congratulatory gifts sent at the end of the year also rose with the tide.

Liu Quan said on the side.

"Xiangye, the congratulatory gifts sent by these people this year are much more valuable than in previous years."

Li Yunsheng nodded.

"Did they find what I wanted?"

Last time, after eating a small golden pill in Jingming Mountain, he has been thinking about it.

Duanyun said that there was a lack of rare medicinal materials, so he couldn't refine the second one.

Before leaving, he still asked what the name of the missing medicine was.

Although Duanyun can't find it, the energy he can mobilize is much greater than Duanyun, and he may have a chance to find it.

After coming back, he sent Liu Quan to deliver letters to all the officials who could be used.

It's just that there has been no news.

"Found it."

Liu Quan put the brocade box on the table with both hands.

Li Yunsheng's eyes lit up.

"Open it and I'll see."

As the box opened, a vermilion medicinal herb appeared in front of Li Yunsheng's eyes.

It is shaped like ginseng, but it has seven leaves on the top of its head, each covered with veins in the shape of fish scales.

"The Seven-Star Fire Scale Grass is indeed the same as Duanyun described, whoever finds it, the prime minister will be rewarded."

Liu Quan hesitated.

"It's Xiahou Xun."

This name surprised Li Yunsheng very much.

"Xiahou Xun?"

Xiahou Xun used to be political enemies with him, but now that he is an official in the same dynasty again, the two even fought side by side.

But he didn't believe that Xiahou Xun would easily take refuge in his side.

Liu Quan pointed to the gift list and said.

"Xiahou Xun's gift list is also sorted out above."

Li Yunsheng looked back carefully, and among the bunch of gifts, there was a seven-star fire scale grass written on it.

"It seems that there is really no impermeable wall in this world."

He didn't tell Xiahou Xun that he needed the Seven-Star Fire Scale Grass, but the other party actually got the news and found this thing.

Looking at the Seven Star Fire Scale Grass again, Li Yunsheng admitted that he was moved.

"Did Xiahou Xun say anything?"

"In the congratulatory gift, there is also a letter from him to you."

Liu Quan put the letter on the table, and then stepped aside.

Opening the envelope and glancing at the contents of the letter, Li Yunsheng also knew what Xiahou Xun wanted.

Now, the defense of the country has been destroyed, and Xiahou Xun wants to be transferred back to Beijing.

"It's interesting, he wanted to be transferred back to Jingshi and didn't look for Liu Cheng, so he actually gave me a gift."

On the side, Liu Quan immediately added a sentence.

"Xiangye is an auxiliary minister, even if Liu Cheng proposes to transfer him back, if you don't nod, he knows that he can't come back."

Li Yunsheng glanced at the gift list again and sighed in his heart.

Perhaps, this is providence.

This gift is heavy enough, even if you remove the seven-star fire scale grass, the weight of other gifts is one of the best in the gift list of the officials.

When Xiahou Xun was an official, he couldn't give Fei Su so many gifts.

has been dismissed for many years, and so many gold and jade jewels have just emerged.

When I think about it, I also know that most of these things were secretly left behind when the treasury of the country was cleared.

He just took Wei Xiang and Liu Quan to Weiguo, so the people in charge of the inventory at that time were all Xiahou Xun's people.

It is not difficult to get out of it at all.

This seven-star fire scale grass is likely to have been found by Wei Guo.

On the side, Liu Quan asked.

"Xiangye, does he accept his gifts?"

"Take it, don't you just want to come back."

As if suddenly thinking of something, Li Yunsheng raised his head.

"By the way, how's the grain selling?"

Liu Quan stretched out four fingers.

"By the beginning of winter, the price has more than quadrupled.

A third of the 18 granaries have already been sold, and it is expected that all of them will be sold out by the beginning of spring next year. ”

"What about the secret agents of the Patriotic Empire?"

After hearing about the death, Li Yunsheng did not hand over the list to Guo Chai, who was in charge of the Great Chu secret agent.

The last time they met, he noticed that Guo Chai's mood was a problem.

Although he didn't understand what the problem was, he had to prepare for both.

He left the list and let Liu Quan start to contact these people.

Although Liu Quan is greedy, he is absolutely loyal.

Although he is a subordinate, he has so many years of experience and has dealt with many officials, and he is also capable of getting started with the errand of secret agents.

The main thing is that Liu Quan's identity is not noticeable.

No one would have thought that a housekeeper of the Li Mansion would have a secret agent of the defense of the country in his hands.

Liu Quan replied.

"The people who can't be used have basically been cleaned up, and Su Wanwan has already arrived in Northern Qi."

"Don't be in a hurry for now, wait for things to stabilize a little, and then let her slowly contact the second prince of Northern Qi."

"Yes."

Speaking of Su Wanwan, Li Yunsheng thought of Su Dingqi again.

"Su Dingqi is optimistic, don't make a mistake."

He had a hunch that if Su Wanwan's chess piece was used, he might have unexpected gains in the future.

"Don't worry, that courtyard is guarded day and night."

Speaking of this, Liu Quan hesitated.

"It's just ......"

"What's wrong?"

"Little Taro always likes to run to that yard lately, as if he is more curious about that kid."

"It doesn't matter, as long as he lives well, it's the greatest value."

After a pause, Li Yunsheng recalled the list.

"I remember that one of the secret agents of the Wei Kingdom was the head of the Examination Department of the Northern Qi Officials, named He Gong."

After thinking for a moment, Liu Quan replied.

"It seems to be this person."

"The official position is a bit small." Li Yunsheng's fingers tapped lightly on the table, "Find a way to help him promote his official position again." ”

"Xiangye, what do you want to help him rise?"

"Let's do a test first."

This is a two-level promotion in the examination of Gong Shilang, Liu Quan nodded.

"Understood."

……

Fenglin Palace.

"How's it going?"

Shangguan bowed in a loud manner.

"The things have been sent to Li Yunsheng, and tomorrow morning the dynasty will definitely propose to recall Xiahou Xun back to the Jingshi."

As he spoke, he sent a list to the empress.

"This is the list of gifts given to Li Yunsheng by officials from all over the country this year."

Jiang Qingying took the list and read it one by one from beginning to end.

She is very familiar with antique calligraphy and painting, jade jewelry.

In her eyes, these things are just strings of numbers.

At the end, the sum of everything made her stunned.

"This gift list is worth half of the national treasury."

Shangguan hung his head in an uproar, not daring to accept these words.

With a snap, Jiang Qingying closed the gift list.

"The gift he receives in a single year is worth half of the treasury, how much money does he have to have?"

In the second half of the sentence, she didn't say: I really want to have it!

The empress threw the gift slip on the table, stretched out her hands and put them around her waist, and put her hands in a hoop.

"His neck is really thicker than my waist."
