Chapter 237 A Forced Sense of Patriotism

After returning home, Su Mianyue's servants prepared the medicinal herbs and sent them to the palace with her post. There would be corresponding arrangements from the Imperial Guard. It would be more confident to go through the official procedures. Su Mianyue was most afraid that someone was behind her, such as Empress Dowager, the old witch.

Su Mianyue, who had been busy early in the morning, wanted to go back to his room to get some sleep. He only told his servant that if anyone came to give gifts, he should just register and make a list. The other party was at the door.

Poor servants of the su family, who spent most of the morning in charge of registering gifts and checking gifts at the doorman's side, and had to pile them up one by one, and had to supervise each other so as not to be taken advantage of by others. They had no idea that their master was the one who liked to take care of the gifts the most in the entire Hengyuan.

Su Mianyue's willingness to accept gifts reassured many officials that as long as they could turn the previous incident upside down, losing a little money was not an issue at all, and now they returned to normal and began to slack off.

The next morning, Su Mianyue came to the morning court in a calm manner after half of the morning court was opened. When the officials saw her, they all subconsciously straightened their backs, afraid to trouble them again. In fact, Su Mianyue's visit today was indeed related to these officials.

"Emperor qizou, when I returned home yesterday, all my colleagues sent their servants to deliver gifts. I thought for a day that there was only one possibility. It must be that all my colleagues wanted to share your worries and contribute to the court, so I asked them to do it for me. Therefore, the minister led the whole family through the night to sort out and file all the gifts. He also presented the original list of gifts from his colleagues. Please have your majesty take a look at it." Su Mianyue pushed her hands forward, her hands full of ledgers and other things. She also had a box of invitations from the Imperial Guard, which she guessed was used by the various governments when they gave gifts. There was a list in it.

The ministers did not know what kind of trick Su Mianyue was playing, so they could not help but feel a little panicked. Their actions yesterday were considered bribery, right?

But with so many gifts, Su Mianyue's account alone was more than half a foot high. How much money would it cost?

Wanyan Lin was sitting on a dragon chair looking at the books, but Su Mianyue turned around and cupped his hands at the adults, "All my colleagues have the desire to test my official's ability to do things, and I will not deny it, but it is better for you to report directly to the emperor that you are devoted to such good things as serving the emperor. My official residence is too small and there are not many servants in it. This night has exhausted everyone. Therefore, I have at least taken the liberty to borrow flowers to offer a buddha, and I have given ten taels of silver to each of my servants, which is more than three thousand taels. After the next dynasty, I will bring the whole family to express my gratitude, and let the people of Capital City know what good officials you are, good officials for the country and the people."

The corners of the officials'mouths twitched. Although Su Mianyue's mansion was not the biggest one in Capital City, it was the most luxurious. The former owner was a rich businessman who sold the house at a low price because he followed Wanyan Zhen south. At that time, many people were thinking, but Su Mianyue quickly bought it.

In fact, these officials did not know that Su Mianyue could buy this house with some small means, otherwise how could he pick up such a big leak.

Su Mianyue was singing a one-man show there, and no one answered. She was not angry, but she still smiled and said: "When I am touched by the patriotism of my colleagues, those servants who have come to donate their belongings have conveyed the meaning of everyone. They should donate once a month in accordance with this amount of money, and they should donate again during the new year's festival. How can they not be admired?"

Su Mianyue's words made many officials tremble in their legs and stomachs. Could they honestly say that they had not said this?

Compared to this "Donation" of the amount of money donated once a month, on new year's eve, and simply donate the black gauze hat, even those rich businessmen can not afford it at all, okay?

Everyone glared at Su Mianyue angrily. At this moment, Su Mianyue was definitely the public enemy of everyone, and he was almost blinded by a knife. Only Wanyan Lin, who was sitting on the dragon chair, could not bear to let go as if he was addicted to books. Occasionally, he would point out the names of two officials as if no one else was there. A shaky thank you to the officials.

"Although I take you as a model, I also know that money is hard to earn these days. It is indeed difficult to donate money and things once a month. This matter must be defined after discussing with the emperor. I do not have the authority to respond to your requests. Please forgive me." After Su Mianyue finished speaking, he cupped his fist and bowed again.

Although the officials were angry in their hearts, su mianyue's words left a way for them to live, and they could only live with their dignity. One by one, they cursed Su Mianyue a thousand times in their hearts, but still secretly warned themselves. When they returned home, they taught the back house a lesson. In the future, when they met Su Mianyue Mr. Su, they would definitely take a detour. Don't offend this woman who is more ruthless than a villain.

So that when Wanyan Lin wanted to make Su Mianyue the queen, the officials united to show that the etiquette and law were not in line and all kinds of obstacles, they were afraid that the queen would blow the pillow wind and unknowingly move her head.

Wanyan Lin put down the ledger at the right time and cooperated a few words. The officials who praised him first were embarrassed to refuse to accept it. Then, he picked up the names of several officials to study how to arrange the donation together.

This kind of favor almost made the officials kneel down. It seemed that Wanyan Lin was giving them a chance to perform meritorious deeds, but not to let them do something that offended others. If anything goes wrong, the whole dynasty would hate them to death.

Su Mianyue did not interfere with the donation. She believed that wan yanlin, who had been in business for so long, would come up with the most appropriate method, so she took the initiative to accept the recruitment.

Since most of the robbers were in the south, the officials had already sent people to the south to deal with the matter. Naturally, Wanyan Lin also sent his own people over. Su Mianyue arranged for people to go north, and must implement the recruitment of security within the fastest time.

At this moment, Su Mianyue did not know that the Tianlan soldiers were rushing over. Otherwise, he would have thought of a way to deal with it sooner rather than making himself so passive.

In the palace, when Empress Dowager learned that Su Mianyue had once again intervened in the affairs of the court, he was so angry that he broke a lot of expensive ornaments. He had no idea who Su Mianyue was doing this for and how much convenience he had brought to Wanyan Lin. As expected, the women in the back house had a shallow vision, and even after a country, they could not escape the custom.

Not knowing that Empress Dowager was in a hurry to get rid of himself, Su Mianyue was taking his servants to the official residence to knock on the door and loudly expressed his admiration for the enthusiastic patriotism of the residence. Under the watchful eyes of the common people, no family dared to show incomprehension and could only pretend to be snakes.

It was impossible for Su Mianyue to go from house to house. After visiting a few high-ranking officials who did not deal with her, Su Mianyue retreated first and went back to the mansion to catch up on his sleep.

Little did she know that there was a charming guest waiting for her in the mansion, and the other party's intentions were not pure.
