Chapter 86 Errands and Cooperation

After the grandparent and grandson reached a consensus, the two of them looked at each other secretly and smirked for a long time like cats stealthily, then lowered their heads and ate the fruit in their hands.

When they reached the gate of the palace, the two of them were almost half full.

"Master Guo, Young Master Seven, get out of the car and follow the miscellaneous family inside." Eunuch De reminded them with a smile outside.

Huo Qiqi stretched his waist, got out of the car first and subconsciously supported the old man.

This is a habit she developed in modern times. In ancient times, because the old man treated her very well.Therefore, subconsciously, Huo Qiqi also regarded him as a real elder.

The old man looked at the jade hand on his arm and was taken aback.In the past, he hated this kind of mother-in-law thing the most. He didn't even like the elegance of civil servants, thinking that civil servants had a sour taste.If it were someone else, a grandson supporting a tough elder, the old man would definitely sneer at him.But now it was his head, the old man suddenly had a sore nose and his eyes became a little moist.

The mansion of Duke Huguo has always been more yang than yin, and although the grandsons are filial, how can a group of gentlemen have time to be careful.Ever since the old lady passed away, the old man had never tasted such straightforward affection from Huo Qiqi today.

Huo Qiqi just acted subconsciously, and didn't notice the turmoil in the old man's heart.This is her second time entering the palace. The last time she came here because of Dai Zui, she didn't have a chance to appreciate the surrounding scenery.

This time, her pace can be slowed down.As a result, there are more opportunities to see the scenery.

The palace is somewhat similar to modern palaces. The pillars and Langting are all made of wood, and the tops are painted with red paint countless times, while the tops and eaves are carved and painted into various patterns, which has an antique flavor. The feeling of antique carved beams and painted buildings.

The old man enjoys family affection, and unconsciously slows down his steps to cooperate with her. Their grandparents and grandchildren are leisurely, but it is hard for Eunuch De.

Eunuch De looked back and saw them as if they were strolling in the garden. He was very anxious, but he couldn't rush them, so he could only sigh and slow down his pace.

For a certain distance, the three of them took a long time to go before they arrived.

The emperor was waiting for them in the imperial study. When Huo Qiqi and Duke Hu Guo arrived, they found that Li Yuanbai and the third prince were also there.

"The old minister has seen the emperor and the two princes."

"The grass people kowtow to the emperor." Huo Qiqi and Duke Hu Guo first greeted the people in the room. At this time, Huo Qiqi looked very stable and honest.

The emperor looked at it with a smile and nodded slightly, while the third prince and Li Yuanbai looked sideways at each other, the look of scrutiny and curiosity in their eyes was very obvious.

"Sit down." The emperor was in a very good mood, with a smile on his face all the time.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The grandpa and grandson found a place to sit behind, Huo Qiqi didn't look sideways, his back was straight, it was true.

Seeing her pretending, the third prince couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Huo Qiqi, you clear the streets and gates of the city, tell me how you want me to reward you." The emperor had a good influence on Huo Qiqi, and took the initiative to give her the opportunity to ask for conditions.

"It is the grass people's honor to be able to share the emperor's worries. Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. As the people of the Dayun Kingdom, the grass people have the opportunity to contribute to the construction and development of the Dayun Kingdom. It is the grass people's duty and responsibility. What the grassroots do is only trivial things within their capabilities, and they dare not take credit for it." Huo Qiqi was not stupid, and immediately pushed back with Tai Chi.

However, she is not really an ancient person after all, and she really can't learn the polite tone of the ancient people.

The emperor, Li Yuanbai, and the third prince looked at her in surprise. Maybe they never thought that the number one rich man in the capital would be able to say such responsible words one day.Moreover, the three of them were quite interested in the words Huo Qiqi used.

Responsibilities, obligations, and development and construction, ouch, I seem to have never heard of these words before, but they sounded very pleasant to my ear, and immediately, Longxin was overjoyed, "Okay, okay, Huo Qiqi, you are really a big cloud!" Good people of the country, if everyone in the country of Dayun is as you think, our country of Dayun will not worry about being strong or prosperous. However, I will reward you for what should be rewarded. A gentleman will never change his words. You say Say, what reward do you want?"

Since the other party was so sincere, Huo Qiqi did not refuse.She thought for a while, and said, "If the emperor really wants to reward the grass people, the grass people hope that the future marriages can be decided by themselves."

After saying a word, the room was silent, even the old man looked at Huo Qiqi dumbfounded.

Is it wrong?Huo Qiqi was a little puzzled.

"Hahaha, Qiqi, don't you know that the marriages of the Huo family's descendants are all decided by themselves?" The emperor asked with a big smile.

There is such a saying?Huo Qiqi looked at the old man in surprise.

The old man nodded at her, "Our descendants of the Huo family have always been weak. The first emperor took pity on our Huo family and promised that all the marriages of the descendants of the Huo family can be decided by themselves."

When Huo Qiqi heard it, it turned out that she wasted a good opportunity for nothing, and she couldn't help but feel a little regretful, "Cao Min's brain was injured, and he can't remember many things, making the emperor laugh at him."

"Since that reward doesn't exist, you can mention one more." The emperor was especially kind to her today.

Huo Qiqi's hairs stood on end, and she suddenly remembered the old man's advice to her before entering the palace.As the saying goes, if you have nothing to show gallantry, you are either rape or steal.This sentence applies to the emperor, and it probably works.

She secretly made up her mind that she didn't want anything for this reward.

"Your Majesty, the grassroots have already mentioned rewards, so of course we can't mention the second one." Huo Qiqi refused with a smile.

"Huo Qiqi, I asked you to come here today. I will give you a reward and arrange an errand for you when I go out." The emperor smiled and turned to the main topic without mentioning the reward.

"Your Majesty, Qiqi is young, what kind of job can she get? Our Dayun Kingdom has many talents, so the Emperor should choose someone else." Before the Emperor could say anything, Duke Hu Guo immediately began to protect the calf.

"Duke Protector, I haven't said anything about my errand yet. Don't rush to refuse." The emperor said with a big smile.

"The old minister dare not." Duke Hu was a little unhappy, but he didn't let go.

"There are a lot of intersections in the capital, congestion happens from time to time, and there was a stampede yesterday. I want Huo Qiqi to assist the sixth prince and train a group of guides. Because these rules were set by Huo Qiqi, So it is the best arrangement for her to come forward. The Protector doesn't have to worry about her getting involved, Huo Qiqi only needs to talk, and leave the rest to the sixth prince." The emperor explained with a smile, "Of course, you don't have to worry about letting her do things for nothing. Every month, Huo Qiqi receives monthly silver according to the salary of a ninth-rank official. On weekdays, she doesn't need to go to the yamen to report for work. Is this possible?"

It is very rare for a king of a country to speak to his courtiers in a deliberative tone.The Duke Protector thought for a while, and added, "One month is the limit."
