Chapter 1052 Xiangyun’s Wedding (9)

His expression was always calm. He just put his hands behind his back and walked quietly. He didn't feel embarrassed or angry at being humiliated. It was as if he was not the one who was ridiculed and driven out of the palace.

Nangong Shi seemed to be affected by his calmness. After walking for a while, he clenched his fist and said, "Okay, I'll bear it!"

……*……*……

After Caiwei and Changmei planted the medicine, they went to make wine. She picked a lot of ripe fruits and many flowers that were about to wither, preparing to make more wine. When she went to Lingxi to fetch water, she accidentally picked up a white jade hairpin in Lingxi.

The jade of the hairpin was crystal clear and delicate like sheep fat, but the workmanship of the hairpin was really not good. She held the hairpin and imagined which jade carving master had wasted such a rare piece of good jade.

Suddenly, she felt that the hairpin looked familiar. After thinking carefully, she remembered that when she was eating roast duck in Qing County, Goudan bought her a hairpin with the same shape at a street stall. However, the material of that hairpin was very poor. It was the kind of jade with many impurities and cracks, which could barely be called jade. It was completely different from the hairpin in her hand now.

Because the rough thing was a child's thought, she still wore it reluctantly for a few days, but later she didn't know where it was thrown away.

She put the hairpin she picked up in front of her, looked at it carefully for a while, and finally confirmed that it was the one Goudan bought for her. Obviously, this hairpin was accidentally dropped into Lingxi by her, and was evolved by the water of Lingxi, turning into a bright and white top-grade jade!

Lingxi actually has this function!

Caiwei was simply amazed at the omnipotence of space.

She immediately got up and left the space, not even bothering to brew wine, and directly ordered a car to be prepared, and went straight to her own treasure pavilion!

When Shopkeeper Feng saw the boss coming, he hurriedly greeted him with a smile.

"Boss, you are here!"

Caiwei said "hmm" and strolled in front of the counter on the first floor for lower-class women. After walking around, she pointed at the cheap jade with impurities and said: "Pack all these for me, I want to take them away!"

Shopkeeper Feng was stunned for a moment, and couldn't figure out what the boss wanted these rags for, but the boss's affairs were not something he could inquire about, so after a moment of stunnedness, he hurriedly called the female waiter to come and help the boss pack.

Caiwei left with the jades, intending to put these broken jades into Lingxi to see, if Lingxi really has the function of turning impure jade into fine jade, she will have to open another shop...

Not long after leaving the treasure pavilion, just as she got on the car, the voice of Yingge talking while eating came.

"Master, it's so lively here? There are so many delicious foods."

At this moment, it was sitting at Nangong Yi's table, eating and drinking. Nangong Yi was chatting with the people at the same table while feeding the parrot carefully.

Also at the same table were Ji Gongzi, the nephew of Queen Mother Ji, Li Gongzi, the eldest son of the General's Mansion, Mo Zijing and Mo Ziqi of the Duke of Liguo's Mansion, Han Zhicai, the head of the Hanlin Academy, Zhao Hongwang, the prefect of Yingtian Prefecture, as well as Mu Zhongqing and Prince Nangong Yi, etc.

After three rounds of wine, Han Zhicai smiled and said to Mu Zhongqing: "Zhongqing, what do you think about the matter that I mentioned to you last time?"

What he said was to let Mu Zhongqing work as an editor of the Hanlin Academy through the Hanlin Academy. Mu Zhongqing said in embarrassment: "Thank you, Lord Han, for your kindness. I have already considered this matter. Zhongqing is just a scholar and has no achievements. I am afraid he is not worthy of serving in the Hanlin Academy!"

"Hey, look at what Zhongqing said!"

Zhao Fuyin laughed and said: "Since ancient times, heroes have not been judged by their origins. It is said that the prime minister of our Great Jin Dynasty was a carpenter and did not even pass the examination for a scholar. Brother Zhongqing's status is much higher than our founding prime minister!"

Lord Han glanced at the prince, and then stole a glance at He glanced at Mo Ziqi, then smiled and said to Mu Zhongqing: "That's right, Zhongqing, don't refuse. Come to the Hanlin Academy tomorrow to report, so that you can help me!"

The prince propped up one elbow on the table, as if he didn't hear what they said, and lazily fed the parrot. The parrot was really good at eating. It ate a perch that was bigger than it in a few bites. I really don't know where it ate the fish. Moreover, it can drink and put its head into the prince's wine glass to drink.

However, the prince didn't seem to blame him. Instead, he looked at the bird with a funny expression, looking lazy and casual.

Mu Zhongqing was persuaded by Lord Zhao and Lord Han in turn. I don't know if he was moved or what, he neither refused nor agreed, just said he would go back and think about it.

Mo Ziqi, who had been silent, suddenly said: "Mr. Zhao is right. A hero does not care about his origin. Since a carpenter can be the prime minister, why is it unworthy for a scholar to be a small editor in the Hanlin Academy?"

The younger son-in-law spoke up to help his father-in-law. The older son-in-law naturally could not be outdone. He also said: "There are a few managers in my house who are good at doing business. Let's send one of them to the Bafu Restaurant as the shopkeeper tomorrow. Since my father-in-law has studied for half his life, it would be a pity to waste it. Let him work in the Hanlin Academy!"

Wow, the father-in-law was invited before the wedding. Several people at the same table were surprised. The prince and Mu Xiucai were very calm, as if they had been calling each other like this in private for a long time.

Mo Zijing smiled and said, "Haha, if uncle goes to work in the Hanlin Academy, the crown prince will get married next month, and the crown princess will be a daughter of an official appointed by the court." This sentence successfully moved Mu Zhongqing's unwavering heart.

Of course he wanted to give his daughter the most respectable identity. Since ancient times, merchants were the lowest class and the lowest level of society. Although he did not mind his identity, he could not help but mind the impact of his identity on his children.

The future Crown Princess, born in a merchant family, would be looked down upon and attacked by people with ulterior motives. Maybe there would be a woman of noble status who would want to replace her.

Although he did not doubt Nangong Yi's character, he still did not want his daughter's marriage to be unhappy. Therefore, after Mo Zijing said this, he decisively agreed to Mr. Han's request and agreed to report to the Hanlin Academy and take up his post early tomorrow morning.
