Chapter 203 Rewards
203
Three days later, Su Qi returned to Su Mansion.
The summer resort is over.
Negotiation time was half faster than expected.
At this moment, the negotiations have been completed and Kim Hee-yue has also returned to the palace.
So the mission of Su Qi and others naturally ended.
If nothing unexpected happens, two days later, the Emperor of Lu and the Emperor of Chu will sign a major strategic cooperation agreement together, and the world pattern will take a major turning point from then on.
But this has nothing to do with Su Qi.
After finishing the official business there, he returned to the Su Mansion.
Kim Hee-wook gave him a few days off.
After thinking about it, he felt that he should go home.
Seeing him come back, Su Xiaojun, with silver hair, was very happy and held his hand and said, "Su Qi, you are finally back. Do you know that I have been worried about my grandfather these days!"
Su Xiaojun naturally knew about Su Qi's escort work for His Royal Highness, and he naturally knew about the grievances between Lu and Chu, so he was very worried about Su Qi's safety.
He was naturally happy to see Su Qi coming back safely at this moment.
"Su Qi, Grandpa will ask the cook to make delicious food for you later. In addition, I will take you to the Red Mansion to relax in the evening!" Su Xiaojun said with a smile. His eyes when he looked at Su Qi were full of pampering and love.
"Forget it!" Su Qi refused.
"There are a few good girls coming to the Red Mansion these past two days. I have agreed to the people inside to leave a few for you. Grandpa will take you to see them tonight. If you like them, grandpa will buy them for you. You are old and can't always be alone. There are always a few people who serve tea and water around you, right? In the middle of winter, someone also needs to warm the bed."
Su Qi heard a black thread and quickly refused.
Su Xiaojun then patted his shoulder and said earnestly: "This is my grandfather's wish. Why, don't you accept my grandfather's wish?"
After a pause, he shook Su Qi's hand lovingly: "Su Qi, in a few years, you will be the age to get married. Once this man gets married, even if the woman is so generous and sensible, he will still ask for this and that. At that time, if you want to come out to play again, it will not be so convenient.
You are not like Su Yu. That boy Su Yu has been spending time since he was a child, so what have you never played with?
So I won't advise him to go out and play. On the contrary, I want him to take some snacks. But Su Qi, you are different. You have been well-behaved and sensible since childhood. You have never lived a day of living and living since childhood. Grandpa is worried that you will never live such a fairy life again after getting married, so..."
When Su Qi heard this, he felt both amused and moved. He also held Su Xiaojun's hand and smiled and said, "Grandpa, don't worry about me. I will make the decision on my own business. Believe me. As long as I am willing, no one in this world can control me. So even if I get married, I can do whatever I want. No one can control me. In addition, I don't want the girl from the Red Chamber."
"But....."
"Grandpa, Your Highness the Princess promised me that he would send me a few palace maids in a few days, so..."
Su Qi had no choice but to talk about one reason.
"Your Highness the Princess wants to send the palace maid to you?"
Su Xiaojun's eyes suddenly widened.
After staying for a while, he looked at Su Qi in disbelief: "Su Qi, really? Your Highness the Princess really wants to send the palace maid to you?"
"Yeah!" Su Qi nodded, as if this was true.
Although Jin Xiyue said she wanted to send the palace maids to him, he wouldn't want it. Letting a few palace maids stay by her side is not just taking the initiative to keep two spies by her side?
He is not that stupid!
After hearing his words, Su Xiaojun was both happy and excited, and he didn't know how to express it. After a while, he stood up, ran over happily, opened a pot of wine, and twisted it directly without a cup, and took a big gulp at the pot.
"Such a good thing should be revealed!"
After drinking, he wiped the wine from his beard and said happily.
At this moment, a sound suddenly came from outside, and Su Yu ran into here with a loud shout: "Grandpa, grandpa--"
Su Xiaojun glanced at Su Qi and then walked out dissatisfiedly: "What a singer, how can you be!"
Before he went out, Su Yu said in surprise: "Grandpa, the imperial edict is coming in the palace later. Grandpa, prepare to accept the edict!"
What?
An imperial edict came to the palace?
Su Xiaojun was stunned.
Soon, Su Yu came to the two of them, and he said excitedly: "Grandpa, Su Qi, just now, Eunuch Zhao sent a small eunuch, saying that the imperial edict would arrive in a while, and he asked us to prepare quickly."
After hearing this, Su Xiaojun nodded, and then said to Su Yu: "Go and gather everyone in the family, and we will accept the order together later."
"Okay, grandpa." Su Yu turned around happily and ran out.
"Su Qi, your Majesty's imperial edict?"
Su Qi disagreed and said lightly: "Actually, it's nothing. Just give you a title and promote Su Yu to a certain official position. It's very likely that he will be transferred to an important position outside the Beijing area. It seems that that's all! I didn't ask about it either."
Ah? Title?
When Su Xiaojun heard this, his eyelids thrust.
Although the Su family is one of the seven major families in the capital, it has always been due to its economic strength and has no political influence.
The Su family guarantees their own interests by investing in some court leaders.
But now, the royal family directly gave the Su family a title, which means that the Su family's political influence will soar.
But why did Your Majesty give him a reward? What did he do?
"Understood!"
He soon realized.
The reason why Your Majesty rewarded him was not because of him, but because of Su Qi.
However, after thinking about it, his eyelids hopped again.
Su Qi has a very good relationship with His Royal Highness the Princess. There are even rumors that Su Qi will become the son-in-law. If this rumor is true, then this time His Majesty gives him a title...
Su Xiaojun just came to his senses, and Su Qi said again: "Oh, by the way, grandpa, I am coming back this time to tell you something. You ask the people in your family to withdraw their business related to Nanyue first, evacuate them all, and then focus on the Lu side."
Lu State?
Su Xiaojun's eyelids twitched.
"Yeah." Su Qi nodded, and then said solemnly: "From now on, our Su family's business will focus on Lu, and we must strive to become the leader in trade and trade between Lu and Chu, and the leader! The reason why Your Majesty wants to give you a title this time is that you have considerations in this regard."
Su Xiaojun narrowed his eyes: "Are you kidding?"
No.
Su Qi shook his head.
