After the villains heard my voice, they all lost their composure.

"How is your health, old lady?"

Yan Mu'an did not go to the side hall, but went directly to the door. He saw Princess Fu when she and her party were led in.

"Thanks to the princess, I'm doing well these days."

After going up today, the princess of Laoping County sent someone to help the clan and family to ventilate their anger. She said that Yan Muan was crazy and wanted everyone to pay back the money. She was full of copper odor and was unbecoming. What she wanted was for everyone to unite against her.

Princess Laofu and Mrs. Chengyi came well prepared.

"How are you doing, Mrs. Uncle?"

Mrs. Chengyi also said yes, with a decent smile on her face, "The prince is not in the house?"

"He spends time in the Ministry of War whenever he has time. It's hard to stay in the house during the day."

Several people were secretly looking at Yan Mu'an, and they were a little suspicious when they saw that she didn't look crazy and wanted to break up.

"It's cold outside, let's talk inside."

Yan Mu'an, who was becoming more and more comfortable in socializing, smiled and led the people to the side hall. After sitting down, he asked Caihe to serve tea and sweet soup to everyone. He also invited the two ladies' daughters-in-law to sit down. The treatment was better than what they had received in the morning. much better.

"This is the Sydney pear and white fungus soup that was just stewed in my small kitchen. Drink a bowl to warm your stomach."

A few people took it politely, ate a few spoons symbolically, and praised the white fungus soup for being well cooked.

Princess Lao Fu first put down her bowl and spoke proactively, "I was supposed to come earlier, but I heard that the princess was not feeling well and had gone back to the Princess Mansion to rest, so she didn't come to bother her."

"Seeing the princess's rosy complexion, we felt more relieved. The palace's business had been in trouble two years ago. Fortunately, the princess was kind enough to lend us some money. No, the stewards from below came to pay accounts during the New Year's Day and said that this year's business was good. , I made some money, and I paid back the princess’s first as I added in some extra money.”

"The money has been carried into the palace. Princess, do you want to send someone to take a look?"

Yan Mu'an said that these two families were smart people and one of the few families in the royal family that could support themselves. She was not polite when people put words in her mouth, "I feel a little embarrassed to say it. The demand for money has been quite high recently." Big, my prince is very stressed. He can’t sleep well at night because of worry. All kinds of expenses are huge during the New Year. The palace is fine, but even in the army, the soldiers who protect the family and the country don’t even have a single piece of new clothes for the winter. , it’s such a sad time at the end of the year.”

"You are not well-off either, so just paying it all back like this is a great help. I thank you very much, Caihe. Go find Manager Hua and ask the accountant to do the counting."

Her behavior also confirmed the news that the Princess of Laoping County, the Yan family really wanted them to pay back the money. Speaking of it, the old prince had the courage to collect money from several houses in the mansion to bring it, otherwise he would have to leave the stage today.

Mrs. Cheng Yibo always thought that Princess Fu was following her lead, so she quickly said that they had also brought all their belongings, "Please count them together, Princess."

"Thank you."

Together, these two families took more than 40 taels of silver from the silly elder sister, and now that they are back, Yan Muan is very happy. When she is happy, she will have good news to tell these two families. "Recently, the emperor asked the prince to select people for each ministry in the court, so that each ministry can better serve the country. As you know, the prince is very busy, and she can't get away from military affairs, so he asked me to look after the clan members. See if there is a suitable person, after all, we are all members of the same family, so if there is a good opportunity, you must first think about your own people."

As soon as these words came out, several people sat up straight, with joy and surprise in their eyes. Mrs. Chengyi was the first to be unable to hold back, "What the prince said is true. They are all members of the same family, and there are many outstanding people in the clan." Erlang wanted to serve the country, but unfortunately he had no chance."

"Which boy does the princess like?"

The eager eyes were somewhat flattering.

"Naturally there is."

Yan Mu'an didn't show off, "I remember that Crown Prince Fu was still holding a false position. I heard that the Crown Prince was good at writing, and he was especially good at mediating things."

The Crown Princess opened her mouth to answer, but she could only sit with a smile thinking that her mother-in-law was still there. Princess Lao Fu nodded with a smile, "As the Princess said, Min has always wanted to serve the court, but he is not very good at literary talent. At that time, he accidentally ran the wrong errand, so he was free to stay at home. However, he is an upright person, and many people believe in him. They like to come to him to mediate when they encounter any trouble. "

Yan Mu'an smiled and said: "I mentioned this matter to the prince today at noon. The prince said that the talents of the previous prince were not put in the right place. There is now a real vacancy in the Ministry of Rites, which is responsible for the reception of envoys from various countries. This job is easy to say, but Not many people can do it well. First of all, our status must be noble and we must not let the visiting country feel that we do not respect them; secondly, we must be clear about various regulations and understand the affairs of the court; most importantly, we must be good at socializing and dealing with people. If this job is done well, it will also be able to gain benefits for the imperial court, so the prince thinks you can let the prince give it a try."

"I just don't know if the prince is interested in this?"

Princess Fu's smile made two more creases appear in her eyes, "It's rare that Your Majesty is thinking about it and is given such a good opportunity. If Min Zhi finds out, he will definitely be happy. He, in his dreams, wants to serve the imperial court. I am afraid he will be happy to know this news." Crazy."

Yan Mu'an nodded in agreement, "That's good. I will tell the prince later that the appointment document will be delivered to the prince as soon as tomorrow morning. In addition, the prince has been busy recently and is a little overwhelmed. I heard that the young master in the palace is a neat and capable man. Is he interested in working as an errand for the prince?"

This was really a surprise. Prince Fu stood up quickly and said, "Thank you, Prince and Princess, for thinking about Ting'er on behalf of Ting'er. I would like to thank you, Prince and Princess, for Ting'er."

They paid 8 taels of silver to repay the palace, and their hearts were bleeding when they came. But now my husband and son have errands, which are still good errands. I immediately felt that the money was worth a thousand dollars, and I had to prepare a fortune when I came back. This is a generous gift. Didn't I just say that the prince is short of money recently? She can give some more money.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of Prince Chengyi were even more excited than the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of Princess Fu. They never expected that such a good thing was waiting for them. The two of them had an errand, so they should also have one person from Prince Chengyi's residence, right?

Yan Mu'an did not disappoint them. He turned around and said to them, "I heard that the eldest son in the family has a lot of experience in business? Are you willing to work for the prince?"

If the widowed king wants to make money, he must find someone who can make money for him. He doesn't know when he will be able to develop with his knowledge of arranging troops.

"Yes, of course."

As the saying goes, those who are near the water and towers get the moon first, and you can see King Yong'an every day. Is it not easy to ask for something after the errands are done?

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law thanked each other happily, and Yan Mu'an said: "Then it's settled. This year's court festival starts on the 28th of the twelfth lunar month. On the 28th, I invite the two young masters to come, and the prince will arrange errands."

Just asking you, are my sweet dates sweet? !
