Chapter 239 The County Lord and the Emperor's Transaction
Chapter 239 The Princess and the Emperor
Du Wan looked at the emperor with admiration, "Uncle, you are so amazing, you can tell at a glance that I have something to do, beg you. I'm here for something private, I want to ask for your help."
The emperor nipped her little head and laughed and scolded: "Okay, tell me what's going on?"
"I want to ask you two people and you also want them to sign a contract for sale."
"Who?"
"Su Yu and Su Che."
"..." The emperor's smile faded and he quickly returned to normal. "Wanwan knows what crime did the Su family commit?"
"Isn't it just the charge of Su Yu killing me?" Du Wan said with her eyes wide open innocently, "I heard that their family was going to be scouted and beheaded, so I hurried over to ask my uncle for help. Su Yu made me disappear for so long. Humph, it's too cheap to behead her directly. I want her to live. Only by living can I slowly atone for my sins."
Du Wan's little eyes should not be too evil.
But when she did it, she was a little cute and cute.
The emperor suddenly felt funny, "Then why do you still want Su Che?"
"If all her family members die, it will be boring torture. Maybe she will still seek death. When I hold her relatives in my hand, she will be unable to survive or die. In fact, I still want Su Yu's mother to come. But I heard from my mother that according to the law, her mother can go home with Li."
"...Why don't you want her father?"
"Oh, can you ask for this?" Du Wan was surprised. "If I could... it would be OK. I have already thought about how to torture them."
Seeing this, the emperor was amused and laughed.
He did not doubt that there was any unknown secret in the Princess's Mansion.
The Princess's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion had a big fight before, and even involved human life. This hatred was fundamentally impossible to reconcile. The emperor felt that she was a child's character when Du Wan made the request at this time. If Pei Hao had proposed this matter, it would be different. The emperor would inevitably think too much, and even suspect that the Duke of Zhenguo and the Prime Minister's Mansion were privately related.
The emperor attached great importance to Du Wan beyond her own expectations.
He agreed and the emperor also added a small request, "Wanwan, there is no free lunch in the world. If you want someone, please exchange Master Yuantong's Qi Yang Pills."
"What? What Yangqi Pills?"
After the emperor's explanation, Du Wan knew what he meant.
It is a pill called Yangqi Pill of Old Monk Yuantong. I heard that eating it is very good for the body, and eating it regularly can prolong life, but unfortunately the old monk doesn’t sell it.
Du Wan did not expect that Yuantong's things would be so attractive that the emperor flocked to them.
The emperor asked tentatively: "Wanwan, didn't your father mention it to you?"
"My father is too busy. I haven't seen anyone from morning to night." Du Wan complained quietly. It's all because of the emperor's uncle who arranged so many things for his father to do.
The emperor is now out of temper.
Du Wan patted her chest and promised, "Don't worry, uncle, I will definitely buy Yangqi Pills with Master Yuantong."
"Yes, yes, buy as much as you can. Take care of your mother's body. Her body has always been weak. Cough, my uncle has not been in good health recently, but my uncle is not greedy, just one or two will be fine."
"What's wrong with you? Have you ever been treated by the imperial physician?"
Du Wan wanted to roll her eyes in her heart, but she still pretended to be worried about the emperor on the surface. "When I get to the clan, I will find another time to go to Huguo Temple. Last time I took away Anshenxiang and still owed the old monk the money. I went there this time to make up for the money."
"Yes, make up for it. Don't let him suffer any losses, so that he can buy it next time."
“…”
Du Wan didn't procrastinate in the palace for long.
The emperor gave her a stack of silver notes and a ginseng of two hundred years. He asked her to buy the Qi Yang Pills, but if she couldn't buy it, she would exchange it for the ginseng.
Du Wan calmed down and patted her chest to ensure that she would complete the task.
After stepping out of the gate of the side hall, the little girl turned around, "Uncle, don't tell my father that I've been to the palace."
When the emperor heard this, he burst into laughter, "Okay, don't say it."
It’s more obvious if you want to cover it up!
How could it be that I didn't know?
Du Wan was satisfied and quickly slipped out of the palace.
When they arrived at the palace gate, Zhuang Cong led a horse.
Du Wan turned over and was about to leave before she accidentally saw Pei Hao and others standing on horseback not far away.
After thinking about it, Du Wan rode over and said with a smile: "I want to go to the Hui tribe today. I will leave later and then go to do something for the emperor's uncle."
"Is it OK?" Pei Hao raised his eyebrows and asked.
Du Wan smiled, "It's OK."
Only they understand the meaning of it.
Pei Hao said again: "I'll take you back?"
"No need. I sneaked out this time. Wouldn't it be known to everyone if you send it back?" Du Wan was not happy with him coming to see him off, so she rode a horse and ran away without saying hello.
Zhuang Cong and others followed one after another.
Pei Hao stopped thinking about giving her away. But when he thought that the little girl wanted to go to the tribe, she would not be able to meet her for a while, and she felt a little reluctant.
"Sir, the princess is gone." Musan joked.
Pei Hao glanced at him sideways, "Have you finished your work today?"
"Oh!"
It would be fine if I didn’t mention it, but I would have a headache when I mentioned Musian.
I didn’t sleep last night, can’t I sleep tonight?
Mu Si'an leaned close to Pei Hao and asked in a low voice: "Is that list you said true or false?"
"This is not important, the emperor believes it." Pei Hao's last sentence was the key point. The Prime Minister's list was completely written to the emperor's heart. In order to leave a glimmer of vitality for his descendants, Prime Minister Su also tried his best to please the emperor.
Mu Si'an sighed when he recalled Prime Minister Su's death.
Prime Minister Su was born into a scholarly family and was a real scholar with a wealth of knowledge. But in this world, since he became an official, it is difficult to get into a high position without any hesitation, and to reach a high position cleanly. It can be said that Prime Minister Su's greed is not an exception, but a very common official phenomenon.
Not to mention Prime Minister Su, they themselves may not be clean.
Princess's Mansion.
The servants were ready and the carriages were prepared outside the gate.
Du Wan climbed over the wall and went in.
As soon as I stepped into Yuling Garden, I ran into Ning Qin who was anxiously looking for someone, "Princess, where have you been? I have been looking for you for a long time."
"I'll just take a walk in the mansion." Du Wan was perfunctory, afraid that Ningqin would ask again, so she changed the subject and said, "Are you going to set off?"
"Yes, I've prepared it long ago, I'll wait for you, Princess."
"Okay, then I'll go and meet my mother."
Du Wan went to see the eldest princess.
The eldest princess prepared a lot of gifts, saying that she would send them to the elders in the clan.
Du Wan did not ride a horse this time and went back in a luxurious carriage.
The group arrived at the stone bridge in front of the village entrance and thought they would meet Du Qian like they did last time.
The result, no?
Chapter completed!
