Chapter 69
In the south study room of Qianqing Palace, smoke was rising from the fumigation cage. It was as warm as spring because the charcoal had been used. Liang Jiugong approached and whispered: "Long live the Lord, Master Jiang is waiting in Maoqin Palace."

After Kangxi finished writing the last stroke, he closed the folder and placed it on the pile of folders that were about to be handed out after reviewing. He stood up, rubbed his hands and said, "Let's go and meet my in-laws."

The friendly and unassuming address startled Liang Jiugong, who had been waiting in front of Kangxi all day long, let alone Jiang Que, who was meeting the emperor for the second time.

After Jiang Que saw the great ceremony, he said in panic: "The emperor has offended the ministers, but the ministers dare not."

To be honest, the emperor's in-laws didn't even dare to recognize the father of Crown Princess Shi.

Kangxi was very satisfied with Jiang Que's cautious attitude, but he did not say this to test this minister, but he was indeed two or three points satisfied with the Jiang family and his daughter.

Recently, he had two more dreams about the valley full of orchids and the giant dragon taking flight. He didn't want Qin Tianjian to interpret the dream, so he took out a dream interpretation book and read it. Then based on the detailed analysis of the dream, he found that those good omens were really similar to Jiang's. That's right.

It's impossible to say that Mr. Jiang escaped because of the orchid in his dream, and the place where the orchid grew should be the Dragon Vein of the Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, Kangxi has decided that no matter how he develops in the future, he must ensure the status of the fourth child. Although he still doesn't like the fourth child very much now, he often regrets why this Jiang family is not the prince's concubine.

After being distracted for a moment, Kangxi picked up a cup of tea to cover up. His expression was still calm, and he said to the kneeling Jiang Que: "Jiang Aiqing, there is no need to be so polite. Liang Jiugong, please give me a seat."

Liang Jiugong brought a chair and asked with a smile: "Master Jiang, please sit down."

Jiang Que looked flattered. After all, he was really flattered. The person doing this was the Emperor.

Kangxi leaned casually on the small table on the Kang by the window and said with a smile: "Let's talk casually, my dear, don't be nervous."

Jiang Que had long heard a letter from a colleague who had become a fourth-grade Beijing official, saying that he was extremely gentle now, but he did not expect him to be so gentle.

"Yes."

Jiang Que carefully agreed, not even daring to sit down on the entire chair.

Kangxi looked at it, smiled, and said, "When my fourth son contracted smallpox, if Aiqing's daughter hadn't taken care of him day and night, he wouldn't have recovered so quickly."

Jiang Que asked himself to behave as naturally as possible, smiled and said: "It is an honor for the Weichen family that my daughter can marry into the royal family. It is right for me to take care of my fourth brother."

#
Jiang Que entered the palace in the morning and did not go out until the afternoon. He chatted with the emperor about the two children, and then reported on the farming economy in Taoyuan County. It was almost noon when Liang Jiugong reminded him.

Unexpectedly, so much time had passed. Jiang Que was in a hurry to apologize, but the emperor was sincere and not impatient at all. He gave him a royal meal and asked him to eat in the palace before leaving.

When leaving the palace, they were all given by Cao Yin, the first-class bodyguard beside the emperor.

After leaving the palace city, Jiang Que couldn't help but look back and realized very clearly that the Jiang family was at the forefront of the storm because of women.

Jiang Que thinks more clearly than Jiang Ying. An official career is more important than studying. If you don't advance, you will retreat.

Jiang Que thought clearly whether he would be a fourth-grade prefect until he reached the top of his head all his life, or whether he would rely on his own abilities and work hard when the emperor had a good impression of their family.

Now that you have entered this officialdom, it is impossible to completely avoid the strife. It is better to be an official when both the emperor and the fourth elder brother can see it.

In the future, he can also be a great source of support for his daughter.

But Jiang Que's extra ambition was gone.

Returning to the inn, he asked his attendant to deliver a message to his daughter.

Jiang Ying actually didn't get up early today. It was her first time to take care of the house. She was still asleep when some of the nuns around Fourth Master came over to do something before the hour was up. It was Keqi who had to go in when he saw the sun was already rising. She woke her up.

The nuns all smiled kindly and told Jiang Ying that it would be okay for them to wait.

A nanny named Yu also said with a smile: "Look at the way Fujin is pregnant, is he pregnant?"

Jiang Ying's yawning movements froze. She just stayed up late yesterday, okay? She sat upright and said, "Don't say anything else, let's get to the business."

Several nuns came forward one after another and explained what they were in charge of. Then Aunt Zhang introduced the stewards of the outer courtyard. However, because the housekeepers in the mansion had been changing frequently recently, they did not mention letting Jiang Ying meet the outer courtyard. Steward.

Jiang Ying also agreed with Fourth Master in advance that he would only care about the palace's dealings with other princes' palaces, and would not ask any more questions. The meeting ended quickly.

Later, Nanny Zhang personally delivered the gift lists from the mansion and each mansion.

In the afternoon, the benefits of having the right to be a housekeeper came to the fore. Things were delivered to the housekeepers everywhere. In the two courtyards combined, there were three kitchen supervisors alone.

The things they sent were also Jiang Ying's favorite, including the sorted plans that looked like they had just been knocked down from the tree, a basket of large pomegranates, and a basket of fresh white and tender lotus roots.

Not all the other Jiang Yings were accepted, but these were left behind.

Then I understood very clearly why the women in this backyard now have to control the house.

Is this a home right?No, it is the general logistics management authority of a large company.

Jiang Ying felt that once she gained the power of housekeeper, her position would be directly comparable to that of a CEO of a large modern company. This was a height that she would never reach in her lifetime of hard work in the modern era.Jiang Ying decided to work hard, why didn't anyone feel more enterprising yet?

Now that they have become CEO, they must make some achievements as the first step in taking office, and their performance is directly determined by the emperor in the palace.

By the way, when I went to the palace to attend a palace banquet, I heard that the Queen Mother was there. The Queen Mother was also a big customer that they needed to maintain a friendly relationship with.

Remembering the last palace banquet when she heard San Fujin chatting with Da Fujin about the Queen Mother's poor appetite recently, Jiang Ying looked at the lotus roots and sweet-scented osmanthus and had an idea.

When Xiao Caizi ran over and said that Lord Jiang sent someone to deliver a message, Jiang Ying was making osmanthus candy according to the video. He put down the wooden spoon that was pressing the candy and asked, "Where is the person?"

Xiao Caizi replied that he would drink tea at the concierge. Jiang Ying said, "Send someone to come in and I'll ask."

Changsui Tie'an was a loyal servant of Jiang's father. He followed him all the way from the imperial examination. Even though he has passed the forty mark now, he is still very healthy.

Tie An can now wield a fifty-pound iron gun, and he can be regarded as a bodyguard beside Jiang's father on the way to Beijing.

The rules in this backyard are strict, but they are indeed strict. Men from outside can be sent to jail for walking around casually, but there is still room for activities.

Like Tie An, Jiang Ying could still do it as a side Fujin. Not long after, the steady-footed Tie An walked in behind Xiao Caizi.

Tie An didn't dare to look around, and kept looking down at the road under his feet. When he got there, he knelt down. Jiang Ying hurriedly asked Keqi to help him up, and asked, "Why did my father call you here?"

Tie An replied: "The master just asked my servant to tell the young lady that she has already entered the palace for the holy ceremony this morning. The new appointment may come down in the next two days and he may leave at any time, so that the young lady does not need to deliver food to the inn. "

Jiang Ying was happy after hearing this, and asked a few more common questions, and asked Tie An to take a sip of tea first. She went back to the room and took out the cold and gastrointestinal medicine that she had photographed in the little green car before.

The capsules were broken apart and only the pills were picked up. The tablets were also smashed and wrapped, and then the seven or eight small packets were wrapped in strong oil paper.

Jiang Ying thought about his mother's hobbies, and took out some of the rewards he had received these days without the imperial gift mark, and put them all into a pear wood box.

Come out and hand it over to Tie An.

Tie An waved his hand and said, "I told you before I came out that you can't take anything given by the lady."

Jiang Ying asked Xiao Caizi to hold it and said, "When you get back, tell me that they are all for my mother. In addition, the oil paper bag contains medicine. The red string is for wind and cold medicine, and the green string is for diarrhea medicine. These are It was prepared by the doctor at Fourth Master's house, and it works very well. My father often travels outside and needs it."

Having said that, Tie An couldn't say anything more, so he bowed and turned around to follow Xiao Caizi and leave.

Jiang Ying continued to make sweet-scented osmanthus honey, but she thought a little about her father, whom she had only met for a long time. Otherwise, when the fourth master came back, she would tell him to pay attention to when her father would leave.

Although Fourth Master had previously said that he would take her to see her off when her father left Beijing, it would be better to remind him again.

Xiao Caizi took Tie An on the path out of the house with the waste from the dung cart and did not bump into the other mistresses in the backyard. However, he was a careful person. When he left the gate of the inner courtyard, he saw a familiar little maid. When he came back, he returned I told Jiang Ying.

"The slave looked at him, and he seemed to be around Qian Gege. It seemed that he was trying to find out who the slave sent away."

Jiang Ying thought for a moment that there was nothing wrong with it, and said to Xiao Caizi, "I understand, let's go play."

When the fourth master came back in the evening, Jiang Ying was worried about the frame-up incident in the TV series, so he reported it to the fourth master. The fourth master was amused and pinched her nose when he sat down: "Silly girl, okay, I know." This matter."

[Be careful of sailing the ten-thousand-year-old ship. Besides, my behavior of secretly complaining was not stupid. 】

The fourth master had a smile on his lips, giving people a feeling of spring breeze. He just liked Jiang Ying's temperament of saying anything, and in his heart he was not polite to her.

Jiang Ying was trembled by the soft breath on his body and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Fourth Master smiled and said, "Look at how cute you are."

[Ah ah ah, this smile is too foul, and you are also making wisecracks. The fourth master can also make wisecracks! 】

Fourth Master really wanted to ask this little girl if it would surprise people if he could eat by himself.

"Let's set the food. I'm very hungry after a long day of work." Fourth Master stood up and walked to the dining table, then turned to Jiang Ying who was still in a daze and said, "The twists that were delivered to me this morning were delicious. It's Jiang Fujin's first day as the head of the business. , well done.”

Although Jiang Ying was a little speechless, he was actually very happy. After all, it was recognition from the big boss. The more the merrier.

But as soon as the fourth master stepped forward and the food was put on the table, the troublemaker came.

Su Peisheng stood by the door, "Sir, Qian Gege is outside asking for an audience."

The Fourth Master went to get the chopsticks as if he hadn't heard anything and said, "No, let her go back."

Su Peisheng had known about it for a long time, so he kicked her out in the first place, wondering: "Sir, Qian Gege said she just wanted to give you one of her specialty pastries."
