Chapter 279
Liu Ying gently looked at Yun Qingshi, who was sitting on the chair, who was a little uneasy: "Your surname is Yun?"

Yun Qingshi nodded lightly: "If you go back to aunt, my daughter-in-law's surname is Yun."

Liu Ying didn't speak, she gently moved the tea cover with her soft fingers, she didn't know what she was thinking, suddenly Liu Ying put down the teacup in her hand, stretched her waist, squinted her eyes and smiled: "Xiao Mingming, my sister is tired today. I'll see you again in a few days, my sister likes your gift very much, I love you."

"Auntie, the food is being prepared at home, why don't you leave with something before you leave, my nephew can't let you go back on an empty stomach."

Liu Ying smiled lightly, rubbed her lower abdomen and shook her head: "Forget it, my sister needs to maintain her figure. It's ugly to be fat. Let's talk about it when I have a chance."

"Forget it, my nephew obeys my aunt's orders. When my aunt comes again in the future, she must say hello first, so my nephew can prepare in advance."

Liu Ying got up: "Let's go, your cousins ​​are impatient, and they must have grown impatient for waiting."

Yun Qingshi got up and saluted: "Little daughter-in-law sends aunt off respectfully."

Looking at the back of Liu Ying and the two who disappeared in the corridor, Yun Qingshi scratched her forehead in confusion, is it her sister or her aunt?Could it be that I called it wrong?
"Miss, how is it? Sir, is your aunt satisfied with your performance?" Chun'er stared at her young lady expectantly.

Yun Qingshi bit her lower lip and shook her head blankly: "I don't know either."

"what?"

"Mother, cousin."

The brothers and sisters of the Yun family who were resting in the gazebo immediately got up and saluted when they saw the two.

"I've been waiting for a long time, and I forgot to prepare some recreational snacks for you."

"Cousin, Miss Yinger has prepared everything for us. When you think about it, the daylily will be cold." Before Yun Xiaoxi finished speaking, he stared dumbfounded at the full-length mirror brought over by the servants in the corridor, and walked away in a daze. In the past, he couldn't help but raised his hands.

Liu Mingzhi heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the tea set on the stone table for the cakes and candied fruit. It was Yinger who knew how to be considerate, otherwise his cousin would be really rude.

Before Yun Xiaoxi touched the full-length mirror, she was photographed with a soft slap, and Liu Ying pinched her waist and stared at Yun Xiaoxi angrily: "Xiao Xixi, what do you want? This is a gift from Xiao Mingming." Sister's dressing mirror, don't touch it, you won't be able to afford it if you touch it, dressing mirror, you don't have to worry about wearing the wrong clothes when the maid is away."

Yun Xiaoxi looked at his mother pitifully: "Mother."

"Call my sister."

Yun Xiaoxi struggled for a long time, but couldn't really call out the word "sister". Mother could have the audacity to call herself "sister", but she was not so cheeky, so she sniffed her nose twice, and turned her head away with restraint.

A hint of cunning flashed in Liu Ying's eyes, and she held up the five mirrors wrapped in her hand: "Xiao Xixi, look at what is in sister's hand?"

Yun Xiaoxi looked enviously at the mirror in Liu Ying's hand, and looked at First Young Master Liu with resentful eyes: "Cousin, Xiaoxi also wants to wear a mirror, and you still charged me 500 taels of silver."

Liu Mingzhi was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered that when he didn't know Yun Xiaoxi's identity, he had indeed received 500 taels of silver from her: "Xiao Wu, take two people to Yinger's room and bring her full-length mirror to Xiaoxi to take away with her." .”

"Yes."

"Xiao Mingming, you are biased, and my sister doesn't follow her."

"Auntie, pull the ear off again."

Liu Ying leaned close to Liu Mingzhi's ear and whispered: "Little thing, pigeon meat is very nourishing. If it's okay, let the servants stew two for you, understand?"

Liu Mingzhi looked at Liu Ying suspiciously, not knowing what she meant by what she said, why the topic of talking about the mirror suddenly turned to Pigeon.

Seeing Xiaowu and two servants bring over the full-length mirror in Yinger's room, Liu Ying waved her sleeves: "Little thing, come to my sister's house if you have time, and my sister will stay in the capital for a long time. "

"Yes, my nephew knows."

"Dahai. Let's go first. Your cousin still has time to deal with it. We'll chat later when we have time."

"My nephew will see you off."

"Don't relax, Xiao Xixi, an unfilial girl, robbed your little lady's dressing mirror. If you don't go to appease her, be careful that you won't be able to get into bed at night."

Looking at the backs of Liu Ying's family going away, Liu Mingzhi looked puzzled as to what his aunt meant when she spoke so vaguely.

Looking around in a daze, trying to find some inspiration, Liu Mingzhi narrowed his eyes and stared at the pigeons preening their feathers on the roof of the courtyard.

When did my family breed pigeons? Could it be that the passing pigeons just rested here? No, pigeons are very home-loving and rarely stay at other people's homes to rest.

Touching the stubble on his chin, Liu Mingzhi narrowed his eyes: "Could it be a carrier pigeon? Pigeon meat, pigeon meat! Liu Si!"

Liu Si appeared from nowhere, and suddenly appeared in the pavilion: "Young Master, what are your orders?"

"Forget about the roof, it's all right, you go back first."

Liu Si didn't ask any more questions, and disappeared into the gazebo again. Liu Mingzhi looked at the pigeons on the roof and licked his dry lips: "It seems that I can't eat anything because I'm too thin. Maybe I'll raise them for two days. There will be more meat."

"My lord, the officials are here." Xiao Wu stopped the carriage and called out.

"Well, so fast?" Liu Mingzhi got out of the carriage and looked at the majestic buildings in front of him. Although he had never been to the imperial city, the six departments were built on the basis of the imperial city, so naturally he couldn't lose face of the imperial city.

Among the six ministries, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Household Affairs are more powerful than the other three. Although the six ministries have the same official positions, no distinction is made between high and low, but a discerning eye can tell which of the six ministries is the most prestigious.

Officials are in charge of promotion, appointment and dismissal of officials, and records are kept in files. From the princes and ministers to the common people, the officials all have their records, especially civil and military officials. The official censor only had the duty to hear and hear about things, but the official department was different. The position of Kao Gongsi was either big or small, but for officials, it was a knife hanging over their heads.

The Ministry of Households is in charge of the world's finances. Gold, silver, treasures, food and clothing are all under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Households. As long as the guy doesn't have the emperor's imperial decree, if the Minister of the Household Department says that he has no money, officials may not even receive their salaries.Although civil and military officials all have their own property, and they didn't point out that a little salary can play a big role, but the right to speak on major matters is the most important. You need money for everything. Without money, you have great power. The ability is also useless.

The Minister of the Ministry of War is in charge of the soldiers and horses in the world. Although he has no right to mobilize without authorization, as long as there is no war and a new commander is appointed, all soldiers and horses in the world must obey the arrangements of the Ministry of War. If there is no trouble, if the Ministry of War trips up and the reinforcements are delayed, it will be the end of the head.

As for the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Punishment, the powers are not so prominent in comparison. The Ministry of Punishment is restrained by Dali Temple, the Ministry of Industry is restrained by general supervisors, and the Ministry of Rites is restrained by Honglu Temple.

The Ministry of Punishment can hear cases, the Dali Temple can conduct joint trials among the three divisions, the Ministry of Industry is in charge of equipment and tools, and the general supervisor can also make equipment and tools. The Ministry of Rites is in charge of various interests, and Honglu Temple handles external affairs.

In comparison, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of War are the most powerful departments among the six departments.

Holding the imperial decree in both hands, Liu Mingzhi walked towards the government office of the Ministry of Officials.
