Chapter 382
If the imperial court is compared to a workplace, she can't be too special.

It's not good to be too clean, and it's not good to be too greedy.

You must know that when the water is clear, there will be no fish.

Qing He accepted those so-called congratulatory gifts very tactfully.

Although she accepted the gifts between officials, she did not easily stand in line.

The several forces in the court are intricate and complicated. If you easily stand in the team, you will easily ruin your career as an official.

Most of the servants in the Zhuangyuan's mansion are maids.

Only some of the older cooks were men.

These are all the old people she has used for a while, and they have been following her when she has not won the first prize in the exam.

There are also a few that Shen Jing bought for her in the slave market.

They are all innocent people, and it is absolutely impossible for them to be meticulous.

After a while, the butler of Jiang's mansion ran over panting.

Qing He asked her: "What happened?"

The housekeeper may feel a little bit hard to say, so he hesitated for a long time before explaining clearly.

It turned out that someone specially sent a group of men to her.

The butler really didn't know how to arrange these men, so he asked her in front of her.

Qing He was not interested in those men at all, and the housekeeper turned them down without even looking at them.

But after a while, the butler ran back again.

He was sweating profusely and looked helpless.

Qing He frowned puzzled, could it be that this group of men still can't return the goods?
The housekeeper briefly explained that there was a man among them who refused to leave, and said that it would be fine if he was allowed to leave, but he had to see Qing He before leaving.

Qing He thinks it's a big deal to see each other, but it's nothing...

Then see you.

The man was dressed in blue and had a good appearance. He could be called handsome, but...

Qing He thought he looked familiar.

She couldn't remember where she'd seen it.

When the man saw Qing He, he knelt down in front of her with a "plop".

Qing He was taken aback by his move.

The man in blue explained: "My lord may not remember my family. You have been to our brothel to find Mr. Shen. It was my family who led you..."

Only then did Qing He suddenly realize.

It turned out to be him, no wonder Qing He always felt that the man in front of him looked familiar.

Qing He said: "I remembered, you get up and talk."

But the man in blue insisted on kneeling and refused to get up.

"Master Jiang, you are the number one scholar in the new discipline, and you will definitely be a high-ranking official in the future. The slave family is not here to cause trouble, but I just want to ask you to help save brother Hanlan..."

While speaking, he kowtowed heavily again.

Qing He frowned slightly: "What happened?"

The man in blue then opened his mouth to explain.

It turned out that the bustard in front of their brothel died suddenly.

But before he died, the bustard had an argument with Hanlan.

Now the people in the government are unwilling to investigate the case properly and insist on arresting Han Lan to take the blame.

Qing He couldn't help frowning after hearing the reason of the matter clearly.

When Lan Yi saw Qing He frowning, his face turned pale, thinking that she was unwilling to help.

He hurriedly said: "Master Jiang, I beg you to save brother Hanlan, he is a good man, if it wasn't because he wanted to help you, he would not have offended daddy..."

"Brother Hanlan is an idiot. Since meeting you, sir, he has never received other guests. We can all see his thoughts on you!"

"I beg you, save brother Hanlan!" After speaking, he kowtowed a few more times.
