The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl

Since Qinghe had the idea of ​​leaving Jiang Yaonian, she began to make preparations quietly.

She returned the embroidery deposit she had already received, got up early and worked late to finish all the embroidery work on hand, and then exchanged all her savings for banknotes.

He also told his sister Yao Furong privately that he wanted to take her back to his hometown when he had time in some days.

Yao Furong, who was a smart kid, felt that something was wrong. She blinked her eyes and asked, "Sister, are we going back alone?"

Qinghe nodded, "Yeah."

Yao Furong asked again in confusion: "Does my brother-in-law know?"

For some reason, Yao Furong always felt that her elder sister was a little abnormal these days, but she couldn't tell exactly what was wrong, so she had to place her hopes on Jiang Yaonian.

Unexpectedly, Qing He said calmly: "He is very busy and has no time to go back with us."

"Oh."

Yao Furong agreed verbally, but secretly told Jiang Yaonian about this matter: "Brother-in-law, my eldest sister said that she would take me back to my hometown when she is free!"

Jiang Yaonian was stunned at first, then said: "Your elder sister has been in a bad mood recently, it is normal for her to want to go out for a walk. I will take you out to relax when I am free in a while."

Seeing this, Yao Furong didn't know what to say anymore. She just hoped that all this was just her suspicion!

……

The end of the year was approaching, and just when Qinghe was almost ready, an oral order suddenly came from the palace, and the emperor summoned her and Jiang Yaonian to the palace for a banquet.

At lunch the next day, Qinghe and Jiang Yaonian entered the palace together.

Qing He sat in the sedan chair, feeling very anxious and uneasy! She vaguely felt that her plan might change...

But for now we can only take one step at a time.

After getting off the sedan chair, the eunuch led the two to the Tou Shi Palace.

"Mr. Jiang, Madam Jiang, please come in! His Majesty and His Majesty are waiting for you inside!"

"Thank you, father-in-law!"

Qing He followed Jiang Yaonian into the palace and saw the emperor and Concubine Jia sitting on the couch chatting. Seeing them coming, she stood up and greeted them warmly, "You are here. No need to be polite. Come and take your seat. I have been hungry waiting for you!"

Qing He just felt that the emperor was very approachable and had no airs at all.

After they sat down, the emperor looked at Qinghe kindly and asked, "Qinghe, I heard that your embroidery is very famous. You should come to the palace more often in the future and give some advice to the embroiderers in the embroidery bureau..."

Qing He smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are too kind! This is just my way of making a living. How can it compare to the outstanding skills of the embroiderers in the palace..."

The emperor said gently, "Hey, don't be so modest! I heard that the King of Huainan even invited you to appreciate the screen! With his vision and taste, you are definitely not an ordinary person! If you are worried about running back and forth, can I send a few embroiderers to your home to learn?"

Not only was Qinghe shocked, but even Jiang Yaonian felt a little strange!

Based on his understanding of the emperor, there must be another purpose behind this!

Seeing that she couldn't refuse, Qing He had to force a smile and said, "Since Your Majesty appreciates my craftsmanship so much, it would be disrespectful if I refuse again. In this case, I'd better obey your command."

The emperor nodded with great satisfaction and said with a smile: "Well, this is the style of a master! Don't be afraid, after the success, I will grant you a title of nobility, a jade token that allows you to enter and leave the palace freely, and appoint you as the chief aunt of the embroidery bureau!"

Qing He waved her hands in surprise and said, "Your Majesty, I cannot accept a reward without merit. I cannot afford such a generous reward!"

Concubine Jia sat aside and watched coldly, thinking that her nominal sister-in-law must be a witch!

Otherwise, it is impossible to explain why the emperor favors her so much! How can an imperial decree be granted easily? The award of a jade pass is unprecedented! It seems that the emperor wants to win over the Jiang family...

Concubine Jia said with a smile: "Qinghe, since His Majesty thinks so highly of you, you can accept the reward with confidence! It can also be regarded as a gift for your wedding with Yao Nian. It's a pity that I couldn't attend your wedding because of something, and missed the opportunity to see Yao Nian as the groom... Today, I will borrow flowers to offer to Buddha and take advantage of His Majesty's kindness!"

Jiang Yaonian said calmly: "It doesn't matter. When we have a daughter in the future, the queen can come to celebrate the full moon..."

The emperor laughed and said, "Okay! I will give you another great gift when the time comes!"

Concubine Jia looked very embarrassed.

Jiang Yaonian was clearly hinting to her not to say anything that might lead to misunderstanding in front of Qinghe.

She smiled slightly and said casually: "Qinghe, you must work hard... According to the rules of the Jiang family, if you haven't got married for a year..."

Unexpectedly, before she finished speaking, Jiang Yaonian interrupted her and said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to put pressure on Qinghe. We will hurry up!"

Qing He ate silently with her head down, but sneered in her heart, "If the opportunity permits, I'm afraid this imperial concubine might want to give birth to an heir to the Jiang family herself!"

When Qing He thought of this, she couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for the emperor opposite her. Did this supreme ruler know that his concubine was planning to cuckold him?

The atmosphere at the table suddenly became cold, and everyone was silent, preoccupied with their own thoughts.

At the end of the meal, the palace maids served tea again.

The emperor held up the teacup and looked at Qinghe and said, "Qinghe, besides embroidery, what other hobbies do you have?"

Qing He shook his head, "Your Majesty, no more!"

Jiang Yaonian couldn't help feeling sad when he heard this... This little girl had always been busy supporting her family, so where did she find the time for entertainment?

He turned his head and looked at his wife with eyes full of love, then quietly reached out and held her hand...

This subtle movement did not escape the eyes of Concubine Jia opposite...

She smiled casually and said, "Qinghe, is that so? Then you should learn more from Yao Nian. He is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, horse riding and archery. He taught me how to play the guqin and chess..."

After Qinghe heard this, her eyes suddenly turned cold!

She pulled her hand out of Jiang Yaonian's and laughed at herself, "How can I be as lucky as the queen! I was born into a wealthy family and have a brother like Mr. Jiang... I grew up in a poor family. I am already dizzy and tired from doing housework and embroidery every day. How can I have time to cultivate those elegant hobbies... Unlike the queen and Mr. Jiang, they can learn these elegant and expensive hobbies since childhood."

The emperor, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked, "Qinghe, where are you from, and what do your parents do?"
