During lunch, the emperor still only talked about government affairs at the dinner table.

When he sat and drank tea after dinner, he spoke happily: "Qi Aiqing, I heard that you have not moved in yet?"

Qi Wenyan was a little surprised for a moment.

He only visited the house for the first time yesterday.

It’s such a coincidence that the emperor asked him today?

What he immediately thought of was Princess Zhaoyang who went to the house with him, but he was a little unsure what the little princess would say to the emperor for his house.

main--

His Majesty the Emperor has always been lenient. Even if he left the house he gave him idle, he would not blame him with scrupulousness at that time.

Qi Wenyan's face was calm and neither humble nor arrogant, and replied: "I am busy with official duties and are alone. I think that the house is big and there are many complicated matters when I move in, so I have not moved it yet. I am not deliberately letting down Your Majesty's compassion and care, but I also ask Your Majesty to forgive me."

While he was talking, he wanted to put the teacup and get up.

However, the emperor raised his hand and stopped him for a moment, and smiled and said, "No need to be polite. I just asked casually and did not mean to blame you."

His daughter has a crush on someone's house, and he wants to bully others and snatch it over...

Although His Majesty the Emperor is a daughter slave, his basic human nature is still clear. Especially Qi Wenyan is still rare in front of him to be a young minister who has entered the officialdom and was favored by him. His Majesty the Emperor feels that he is shameless to go back on his word.

Although Qi Wenyan acted rigorously in the officialdom, he was not a fool who was ignorant of adaptability and observing his expression.

Although the emperor's attitude towards him today was too enthusiastic and friendly, it did not seem to be malicious.

So, he sat back openly.

The emperor held a tea cup and continued, "Actually, that place is not in your favor, right?"

Qi Wenyan naturally wanted to say no.

But the emperor did not give him a chance to speak, as if he wasn't really asking him about his meaning, and continued: "I still have a few idle houses and gardens here, and I have chosen them again. There is a place in Chongmingfang that is bigger than your current house and is close to the yamen where you work..."

Qi Wenyan understood now-

All the previous ones are the preparations!

This Emperor did not blame him for not using the house he gave me, nor did he really consider whether he would not like that house. He actually wanted to arrange a new place for himself?

this……

Which one is singing?

Qi Wenyan remained silent.

Eunuch Li, who came from the outer warehouse of the palace, frowns and makes hints to His Majesty the Emperor from a distance. However, His Majesty the Emperor is too focused on making up lies and really doesn't show his spirit to take care of him. He continues to say: "This way, return your original house and I will reward you with Yuchun Garden in Chongmingfang again!"

This tone is a bit strong, but it is not a negotiation.

Qi Wenyan heard it.

Then, without waiting for him to speak, in desperation, Eunuch Li coughed loudly: "Cough cough cough..."

This cough is earth-shaking and inappropriate.

Even if he is so in a state of discomfort, he should have a way to resist being in trouble in front of the palace.

The emperor and Qi Wenyan looked up together.

Eunuch Li raised half of his sleeve to block his face, blocking Qi Wenyan's vision, and continued to wink at His Majesty the Emperor.

But at this moment, the emperor and Qi Wenyan were sitting in the hall, and the two of them were not far away...

He could not call the emperor out to speak, and biting the ears in front of him was invalid.

In desperation, he also gave Qi Wenyan a smile and beat him happily: "Mr. Qi, this is the case. The Empress's mother's house has a girl who came to Beijing to seek marriage alone and had no place to live. The Empress looked like a little girl, so she was particularly pampered and allowed her to choose the idle house in the capital. It happened that... Didn't you not live in your house? The girl mistakenly thought that it was also a free house and begged to the Empress in person. Your Majesty is not easy to argue with, and it happened that you didn't live in that house again..."

He secretly gave the emperor another wink, and the arrangement of the lies was indeed not delayed: "This matter is indeed a bit sorry for you. Why don't Lao I search for you near the original territory again to see if there is a suitable house to be freed up?"

The emperor was suddenly robbed by him, and he was confused.

Qi Wenyan understood in an instant—

That little princess is on a whim and wants to steal his house?

Although His Majesty the Emperor was puzzled, he had been with the Princess Li for decades and had a tacit understanding. He directly thought it was his own knowledge and said, "It's good."

Then Qi Wenyan stood up, bowed his hand, and said righteously: "But His Majesty promised me to be ahead. I have hired craftsmen and are preparing to start renovations. I'm afraid it's not good to regret it now?"

He hired a craftsman to repair the house, but it was not good to regret it...

It would only be even worse if the house given to him by the emperor is forced to be taken back to others.

The youngest and promising prison officer of the dynasty made such a righteous advice before His Holiness the Emperor...

His Majesty the Emperor couldn't help but blush.

Eunuch Li was so sophisticated and very sleek, but he still smiled kindly and said in concert: "Sir, you are also polite to Your Majesty. The Empress spoke, and Your Majesty has already agreed."

His Majesty the Emperor sat upright on the dragon throne, showing a look of being a little polite but awkward, allowing his old servant to perform.

Qi Wenyan pursed his lips tightly and refused to respond.

Eunuch Li continued to lobby: "After all, the other party is a girl's house. You have a lot of them? Or... if you really like the place in that house, you will be separated by half?"

Is there any such operation?

Qi Wenyan frowned.

His Majesty the Emperor even said "whimper" and his expression almost collapsed.

However, Eunuch Li had a lot of flesh on his face and his skin was particularly suffocating. He ignored the little Master Dali Temple's Shaoqing staring at him like a disciple: "You said just now that the lonely man lives in that house, and the comrades are too complicated, so it's time to pack it up and waste your time? That's it? You should separate half of the house and be a neighbor to the girl, so that Your Majesty can also give an explanation to the Empress."

This idea must be a bad idea.

But His Majesty the Emperor did not interrupt, and Qi Wenyan's brows became tighter and tighter, but for a moment he neither let go nor made any noise.

Eunuch Li said, "Your house has never been moved. It is full of weeds and is very buried. Lord Qi, please give in. The Empress will take care of her family and send someone to build the house for the girl. Just as His Majesty can also take personal favors from the Empress and ask the Ministry of Works to clean up half of your mansion together. Isn't this the best of both worlds?"

His Majesty the Emperor wanted to marry his daughter. On the day of Qionglin Banquet, Qi Wenyan was particularly optimistic about it and he made an excuse to call him into the palace.

Strictly speaking—

If his baby daughter hadn't cooperated that day, the whole banquet ended in vain, in his heart, most of the others were just foils. A group of new Jinshis who entered the officialdom were all foils. They would write a few articles. People who looked good were not experienced. Who knew they were dragons or insects? Only this young master of Dali Temple Qi Wenyan was really satisfied with it, and the others were just foils.

He was confused at the beginning, wondering why his old servant was so confused...

At this moment, the thought that had already been extinguished immediately became active!

His Majesty the Emperor sucked his palm vigorously: "Then let it be settled. My dear, you are busy with official duties. Just go there. I will ask someone to go for the house to rest for you."

At this point, he was actually unstoppable.

Of course, Qi Wenyanruo wanted to refuse, but he was not allowed to refuse...

But he was silent for a long time, but he also silently admitted it and bowed deeply: "Thank you, Your Majesty for your understanding, I will obey the order!"

His Majesty the Emperor was a little happy, and the curve raised at the corner of his mouth could not be suppressed.

Eunuch Li's two small eyes were shining and he hurriedly said, "How to divide this house? In addition to Lord Qi's preference for garden furniture, I will arrange the staff of the Ministry of Works and call you over and give me advice in person."

Qi Wenyan was used to being coldly treated since childhood and suffered hardships. He was actually not picky about the details of life. He lived in the simple courtyard in the Dali Temple yamen very well.

It turns out that there is no need to be such a trouble, and-

He really has no intention of wasting his time and energy on such things.

Can……

He was still silent for a moment and never refused.

When he was sent out of the imperial study room, Eunuch Li turned back into the hall and smiled, his steps were so light that he was almost flying to dance to His Majesty the Emperor.

The emperor drank tea after the left and took a sip of it.

He made his own decision to arrange for Qi Wenyan as a minister, but if it was his turn, he would not dare to be timid, and he felt uncomfortable as if he had toothache: "I know that for the sake of Cheng'er, you are the same as me. The third brother of the Qi family, I really think that the conditions in all aspects are very good, but that girl... I won't give me a chance to get out of the market again this time, right? It doesn't matter if I can't get out of the market, but that girl is unhappy and will run over... The Qi family is good everywhere, and even a very arrogant person."

His daughter always hurts people. A person with a strong self-esteem like Qi Wenyan may not be able to withstand her several injuries.

Eunuch Li went to Qi Wenyan's house early this morning to conduct an on-site inspection. By the way, in order to understand the little princess's wishes, she went to inquire with her personal bodyguard and found the first-hand news he just got.

This was a matter of every detail, and he reported yesterday to His Majesty the Emperor one by one.

I commented: "Isn't this intention to plant a willow without thinking?"

His Majesty the Emperor never thought that the blind date banquet he had carefully prepared would end without even the beginning, but it ended up brightly and there would be a follow-up?

The master and servant bit their ears for a long time.

His Majesty the Emperor still felt that this matter was a bit unreliable: "That girl has a really big temper, and it's not bad to say it's just my young master Dali Temple... His family background is also a bit special. At first I fell in love with his introverted and steady temperament, but judging from what you said, I can't just adjust everyone, but I asked my princess to accommodate him, right?"

Although Qi Wenyan's background is not very good, and even so far, his biological mother is unknown, these can be ignored in the eyes of the emperor.

The origin of a legitimate and illegitimate child is not something that everyone can choose. Qi Wenyan seems to be outstanding in all aspects except for this origin.

His daughter is the jewel in his hand. If you choose a prince consort, you must choose someone who is capable and responsible, who can stand alone at critical moments and shelter his daughter from wind and rain to handle things.

In this regard, he saw that Qi Wenyan was more reliable than those noble children who only knew how to enjoy themselves by relying on their posture.

"The temper of this Lord Qi is sometimes a little weird." Eunuch Li couldn't tell lies with his eyes open, "I think that although our little prince is usually arrogant and willful, his heart is very kind. Your Majesty, you are most interested in this Lord Qi at the beginning. If you succeed, you will try it... It's not bad."
