Haitang and Yinshuang like to send things to the Yun family the most.

Every time I go, I never come back empty-handed.

This time the gift is an engagement jade pendant. The second cousin is very happy and will definitely reward it generously.

Haitang hurriedly agreed, and Pi Dianpian sent the jade pendant.

After Haitang left, Mr. Tao and Mrs. Tao couldn't sit still and stood up to leave. Shen Wan did not keep them, so Manager Zhou sent them out of the house.

Shen Wan was in a much better mood as she helped her second cousin settle the marriage without having to ride a bumpy carriage to the Tao Mansion.

Xie Jingyan went to the study, and Shen Wan followed. He was about to pick two books and go back to the house to kill time. However, when he entered the study, a maid came quickly and said, "Your Majesty, the emperor has summoned you to enter the palace."

Fortunately, he didn't go to the Tao Mansion, otherwise Xie Jingyan would have had a reason not to enter the palace. The emperor would be so angry if he knew that Xie Jingyan accompanied her to the Tao Mansion to pull the red string so he didn't enter the palace.

From the selection of the Minister of Rites, Shen Wan was sure that the emperor was paving the way for Xie Jingyan, but the guy next to him was still ungrateful and furious with the emperor. What made Shen Wan even more speechless was that the emperor still liked Xie Jingyan.

Last time the emperor asked Xie Jingyan to enter the palace because he wanted Xie Jingyan to be responsible for his birthday banquet, but this time he didn't know why he asked Xie Jingyan again.

Unlike Empress Song's visit to her, the Emperor's visit to Xie Jingyan was always a good thing, but at least it was not a bad thing.

Even if he wanted Xie Jingyan to investigate the Xizhou Dam case before, after all, Xie Jingyan would also be given rights when arranging errands.

Xie Jingyan has not received any errands so far, so naturally he has no rights at all.

In this way, the emperor forcefully relied on promoting people who were close to and recommended by Xie Jingyan, giving Xie Jingyan the power to compete with the eldest prince, Xie Jingyin and the others.

Shen Wan was still thinking of asking Xie Jingyan to refuse to enter the palace, so she tried to persuade him. But in the end, Xie Jingyan didn't need to persuade him, so Xie Jingyan said, "I'm going to the palace to see my father."

father...

Usually in private, he is called the Emperor.

It seems that she asked Xie Jingyan to recommend Mr. Chen, and the emperor unexpectedly agreed. Xie Jingyan still felt some feelings in his heart.

It's not easy.

The emperor would be very happy to know that Xie Jingyan also called him "Father" in private.

After Xie Jingyan went into the palace, Shen Wan picked a few books in the study and then went back to the house. She lay on the small couch and read, which was very comfortable.

I just finished reading a few books, and it was already noon. Xie Jingyan didn't come back, and neither did Haitang.

Shen Wan withdrew her eyes from the window, and outside, Dong'er stood outside the bead curtain and reported, "Princess, the prince sent someone back to send a message, saying that it was Young Master Yun who was treating us, and he won't be back for lunch."

Shen Wan still wanted to know why the emperor asked Xie Jingyan to enter the palace, so she could only wait.

Dong'er exited, and soon Haitang's voice came from outside the door, "Where's the parrot? Why is it missing?"

Dong'er replied, "The parrot is a little dirty, so I took it down to take a bath."

Because Shen Wan liked to touch the parrot's feathers, Xie Jingyan asked the maid to wash the parrot clean every day.

Haitang carried a bundle into the house, and Yin Shuang came up to greet her and said, "You go to Yun's house to deliver the engagement jade pendant. The princess has been anxious since you've been gone for a long time. You'd better ask the parrot first when you come back."

Haitang said, "I'm not just asking casually. After I gave away the jade pendant, I walked around the street and met a man. He spoke very interestingly. He was exactly the same as our parrot. Even the tone of voice was the same. I suspected it was a parrot. It’s become a sperm.”

It can make Haitang suspect that a parrot has become a spirit...

What does this look like?

Wouldn't that be the parrot's former owner?

Shen Wan made a guess in her mind, shook her head and laughed.

Haitang opened the baggage she brought back, handed Yin Shuang a ball of knotted thread, and then handed her a purse.

Yinshuang asked for the thread for the knot. Last night, she mentioned that she needed to buy more thread when she went out on the street, so Haitang brought it back for her, but her wallet——

Yinshuang said blankly, "What are you doing with my purse?"

Haitang smiled and said, "This is a reward from my second cousin, Young Master."

Yinshuang was instantly pleasantly surprised, "I didn't go to the Yun family to deliver the engagement token, but there is still a reward?"

"Young Master Second Cousin is so happy," Haitang said with a grin.

Yin Shuang took the purse and couldn't wait to open it. When she saw what was in the purse, she was even more happy from ear to ear.

The purse contained melon seeds and peanuts, both gold and silver.

At least it's worth twenty or thirty taels.

As soon as the second cousin took action, he rewarded her with almost a year's worth of monthly money.

Haitang said to Shen Wan, "The second cousin didn't expect the princess to help him settle the marriage so quickly. He is very happy. I will come to express my gratitude to the princess and the prince."

Shen Wan could feel her second cousin's happiness from the works of Yinshuang and Haitang. She really couldn't imagine that in her previous life, her second cousin failed to marry her sweetheart, so she could only stare at the jade pendant and think about how much she had lived. No one even knows the pain, and only one person endures it silently. Fortunately, everyone can achieve perfection in this life.

Xie Jingyan didn't come back for lunch, so Shen Wan ate alone. After lunch, he rested for a quarter of an hour and then took a nap.

However, when she fell asleep, Xie Jingyan hadn't come back yet.

It was almost evening when Xie Jingyan returned home. When he entered the house, Shen Wan looked at him and said, "I thought you weren't coming back for dinner either."

Xie Jingyan was feeling happy for no reason. He put his arm around Shen Wan's waist and smiled in his eyes, "Do you miss me that much?"

"...Who missed you?!"

Shen Wan's ears turned red and she didn't dare to look into Xie Jingyan's eyes, "I, I'm just a little curious about why the emperor wanted you to enter the palace..."

This woman.

His mouth is really tough.

He felt it, and if she still wanted to deny it, couldn't she say a few nice words to coax him?

Xie Jingyan looked helpless, "Your eldest cousin has reached an agreement with the Wei family on the purchase of war horses, but it is the imperial court that signed the contract with the Wei family. My father gave me the responsibility for this matter, so I took over."

He doesn't have to take on other matters, but he was the one who proposed the Iron Cavalry from the beginning. There's no reason to leave it to others until the last step. Furthermore, as for the Emperor's decision to leave the formation of the Iron Cavalry to Shen Jing, Prime Minister Zuo He, Mao Guogong and others disagreed. This morning, the court heard that there were six thousand cavalrymen, and they all wanted a share of the pie. One person tried to take away a thousand cavalrymen, but the emperor did not agree.

It would be an extra step, so I could only keep an eye on it myself.

He has to be busy with this for the past two days.

The next day, Xie Jingyan left the house after breakfast. Shen Wan was used to Xie Jingyan staying in the house and not being able to see other people all day long. She was really uncomfortable with it, but she had to adapt if she didn't adapt. Shen Wan had a hunch. Soon, Xie Jingyan would go to morning court every day.

It was too hot, so Shen Wan didn't go out. She just stayed in the house doing needlework. There was an ice basin in the house, which was very cool.

Just as they finished embroidering an auspicious cloud, Chun'er came in from outside and said, "Princess, the second cousin of the Yun family is here."

Yesterday, Shen Wan knew from Haitang's mouth that her second cousin was coming. She immediately put down the embroidery bag and got up to go out.

When I went out, I saw Manager Zhou walking in with his second cousin Yun Lang.

Shen Wan said, "As a family, my second cousin is so alienated from me, so he comes to say thank you to me?"

Yun Lang smiled and said, "The whole family deserves to be thanked."

It's a pity that Prince Ling is busy and not in the palace.

Yun Lang looked back at the boy, who took two steps forward. Yun Lang picked up the top brocade box and handed it to Shen Wan, while the boy handed the rest to Yin Shuang.

The brocade box handed over by Yun Lang looked familiar to Shen Wan.

Since her cousin brought the thank you gift, Shen Wan accepted it without any courtesy.

Curious about what her cousin gave her, Shen Wan opened it.

Shen Yuan was stunned when she saw the jewelry in the brocade box.

Isn't this the set of jewelry that my second cousin gave to Miss Tao?

Why did you give it to her?
