Farmer's happy event

Chapter 401 Borrowing a Knife
"Double Happiness", Madam Li called out, and a girl dressed in water-green double-breasted bijia came in.

"What are your orders, madam?"

"You go to the west courtyard to watch, and then bring someone with you. If there is any movement, please let me know immediately."

The girl agreed and went out.

Mrs. Li sat down at the table and poured herself a cup of tea.

Let her just say, this Li Shuxuan is definitely not the kind of person who is willing to be obedient
Look, it hasn't been three days yet, and trouble is about to happen.

Mrs. Li felt as if she had just sent the girl out, and before finishing a cup of tea, another girl came back.

"Ma'am, Miss has gone out." The girl said.

Sure enough, she knew that she would definitely take action.

"I didn't take the car, Sister Shuangxi has already followed quietly, heading towards Hongsheng Building."

Hongsheng Building is the largest restaurant in Beijing, and it is very lively with people coming and going.Gatherings of dignitaries and dignitaries are often held here.

But the so-called most dangerous place is the safest place, there is no doubt about it.

"Understood," Madam Li said, "you go to the Su Mansion on West Street first, and pass a message to Madam Su, that is, I invite her to Hongsheng Building for a cup of tea, and then you will go to Hongsheng Building with her." go upstairs."

"Hey, servant girl understands." The girl agreed.

Although Mrs. Li didn't finish what she said, but she has followed her for many years, and after listening to these few words, she already understood what she meant, and she will definitely settle this matter.

These girls were all dowry brought by her from her natal family, and they were all trained by her mother herself, so they can be regarded as her confidantes.Clever and stable, she can be regarded as her right-hand man.

After the girl left, Mrs. Li thought about it in her heart.

She looked at the sky, it was still early for the separation, and she still had time to make a good plan.

Li Shuxuan went to Hongsheng Building, it's not good for her to show up in person, but wouldn't it be better to use the power of Lianzi to solve this matter?
Letting Li Shuxuan marry into Duke Wu's mansion is good for the whole Li mansion, and she can't make a fuss about it, so as not to affect the reputation of her Li family.

Let's say that after Su Keyan left, Lianzi read the book by herself for a while, but before reading two pages, she felt very tired, her eyelids were heavy, and she dozed off.

"Grandma, if you are sleepy, go to sleep again." Liandong said.

Lianzi wanted to lie back on the bed and sleep for a while, but the sky was bright and it was early in the morning, so where could she sleep?And thinking that Su Keyan would be back soon, Lianzi rubbed her eyes and held on for a while.

Liandong was sitting on one side, doing needlework and accompanying her at the same time.

But after reading the book for a while, I still feel very sleepy.Lianzi closed the book, rubbed her eyes again, but suddenly saw Baishu walking in.

"Grandma, Mrs. Li has sent someone here."

Lianzi nodded and said, "Let her in."

Although Mrs. Li didn't come very often, she often sent someone to deliver something or pass on a word, so Lianzi was not suspicious.

Anyway, now that she has something to ask her for help, Lianzi is not afraid of her playing tricks.

Afterwards, Bai Shu led a girl in a duck-blue short jacket to enter.She has seen this girl before, and she came here with Mrs. Li before.

"Mrs. Su is well." The girl bowed low and said, "Our wife wants to treat Mrs. Su to tea, and has already booked a private room in Hongsheng Building, so I let the servants come and invite Mrs. Su to go with me. "

Hearing this, Lianzi was a little puzzled. Mrs. Li did come to the house from time to time before, but she had never had tea.

"Why did your wife invite me to tea?" Lianzi asked.

And it was still in Hongsheng Building.

Although she doesn't go out often, she has heard of Hongshenglou.The largest and most high-end restaurant in the capital is usually a place for the rich and powerful to socialize.

But, why did Mrs. Li suddenly ask her to go there?
"Our wife said that Mrs. Su has spent a lot of time and helped a lot. She can't repay her. It's just in time for the spring to bloom, so I invite my wife to have a cup of tea and express my heart." The girl laughed.

Although it is still not clear what Madam Li meant, but she said so, and Lianzi couldn't refuse.

"Your wife has a heart," Lianzi said, and said, "Please wait a moment, I'll pack up and go right away."

The girl agreed, and Bai Shu let her sit on a chair, waiting for the lotus seeds.

In the Li residence, Mrs. Li is drinking tea leisurely, her face is calm, and there is no sign of anxiety at all.

That's right, why is she in such a hurry?It only needs to come forward and say a few words when the time is about the same, and you're done.

After drinking a cup of tea, Mrs. Li turned her head to look at the hourglass. Seeing that it was still early, she simply took out the unfinished needlework and began to make it.

She was calmly waiting for a lively event to happen. At this time, the majestic palace was still full of excitement.

"Master Su, congratulations."

"congratulations."

……

Su Keyan has heard this sentence countless times since the court ended.Regardless of whether they were familiar with him before or not, they all came to congratulate him one after another.

"My lord, you are welcome." But Su Keyan replied with a smile one by one.

The edict prohibiting the cultivation of greenhouse vegetables has been prepared, and the emperor specially entrusted Su Keyan to handle this matter.

He is just a scholar of the Imperial Academy, who is responsible for drafting some imperial edicts for the emperor, but the full responsibility is also assigned to the compilation.He himself never thought before that the emperor would entrust such an important matter to him.

As for the result, the emperor was naturally very satisfied. Not only did he praise him in the hall yesterday, but when he went to the court today, he was promoted as a servant of the Imperial Academy.

This is from a fifth-rank official position. Suddenly, he was promoted to several official ranks, and even he himself became confused.This kind of thing, I'm afraid it has always been rare.

But no matter what, he was promoted, whether he was genuinely happy for him or jealous, he still had to put on a good face.

No, as soon as the court was over, no matter whether they were friends with him before or had some grievances with him, they all came to congratulate him.

"Master Su, wait a moment, how about I treat you to a drink?" A middle-aged man in a purple official robe said, patting Su Keyan on the shoulder.

He said before that if he has free time, invite him to drink.

"How dare you ask your lord to invite me, naturally I should invite you." Su Keyan replied.

The man waved his hand and said, "Whoever invites you is not the same? I am happy today."

He said this, and said: "Just wait a moment, I have something to do when I go home. When I finish dealing with it, I will come over to invite you personally."

Su Keyan hurriedly said that he didn't dare, but the man had already left while talking, so Su Keyan had no choice but to go home and walk towards the east intersection of the imperial city.
