Chapter 198 Cao Zhize's Promotion
"I don't understand your tricks. I'm going to see where Xiyuan's tea is. I'm thirsty. Cao Zhize, behave better."
Xia Luo took the opportunity to leave the lobby. Xi Bao's forcing Cao Zhize was really too bloody.
She couldn't bear to watch it anymore. She was too lazy to get involved in the affairs between men and women.
It is possible that after she left, Cao Zhize let her go.
Charlotte's guess was correct.
As soon as Xia Luo left, Cao Zhize straightened himself.
Then he said, "Xibao, right? Can you please sit down and talk? I feel so pressured standing in front of me."
Xibao sat on the chair obediently, staring at Cao Zhize.
At this time, Cao Zhize also felt Xibao's love at first sight.
But he still didn't know Xibao's personality and family situation.
"Xibao, tell me about your family. Then I'll tell you about my family. If we're not a good match, it would be a waste of effort to be together."
Xibao introduced her family members as soon as she heard about it. She didn't dare to say that her father was the uncle of the emperor. If Cao Zhize knew about it, he would be the first to oppose their getting along. In Mobei Kingdom, there is no one with a higher generation than the uncle of the emperor.
"Dad is just an ordinary official. Mom gave birth to four of us. My oldest brother is a teacher at the academy, and my second oldest brother is the owner of a pharmacy. The one just now is my sister Xiyuan. We all work in an embroidery workshop."
"My father is an official in the coastal governor's office. I have three brothers. My eldest brother has been working as a government official in the city. My second brother teaches in a private school in the city. I am a businessman."
They sound like a good match. They are both ordinary officials.
"I am 13 years old this year, and I still have two years to go before I reach marriage age."
"I'm 18 years old this year. We are five years apart."
"I am an extrovert and yearn for freedom, but I am also very conservative and don't like my partner to be unfaithful."
"I am quite straightforward and I like making friends. Because I am a businessman, I cannot avoid contact with the opposite sex. Just like with the Crown Princess, it was all for business dealings."
That means, Xibao, it is impossible that you don't want me to contact women outside. But it is all normal business transactions.
"I mean the kind of love affairs between men and women. I don't interfere in business transactions."
The two people were interacting with each other, and to outsiders, it felt like a transaction.
But they were already calm in their hearts.
Cao Zhize admired Xibao's unusual views. It would be great if this girl could become his good wife.
Xibao thought Cao Zhize looked handsome and had a bright heart, so she thought she had a unique vision and found a confidant.
The two reached a consensus within an hour.
When Charlotte came back again, both of them looked extremely happy.
"Cao Zhize is fine. Cousin Xibao is a rare talent. I didn't expect that our cousin Xibao has such good vision. Cao Zhize has a bright future."
Xia Luo called Cao Zhize over just to give him a position.
Situ Jin had not returned from the palace yet, so he went to ask for permission to allow Cao Zhize to enter the court to serve as the Minister of Revenue.
Because their gold and silver were in the treasury, she wanted to find a reliable person to manage the treasury.
This person must be Cao Zhize. First, he believed in Situ Jin and Xia Luo.
I will be able to assist Zimo and Zixuan in the future.
Second, Cao Wenshan will also help them manage the coastal areas diligently and responsibly.
Third, if they return to the afterlife, let him treasure all the materials in the space and not leave them in the human world.
Furthermore, Cao Zhize knew from the beginning who poisoned him, but he did not seek revenge on that person.
Until now, I haven't heard that he has any intention of looking for that person.
It shows that this person is kind and patient. It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.
He is just like his father, selfless.
The two elder brothers have been working in the capital.
They never asked Charlotte and Situ Jin to accommodate them.
Therefore, Situ Jin discussed with Xia Luo and prepared to give him a surprise.
Situ Jin ordered his elder brother Cao Zhisheng to be placed in their hometown of Fujian as the prefect.
He placed his second brother, Cao Zhixian, in Hangzhou as prefect.
After the emperor issues an edict, he will be ready to take office as the Minister of Revenue.
Xibao has a keen eye for talent and expresses his feelings at this time.
"My parents allow me to control my own happiness. So Brother Cao doesn't have to worry about whether my parents agree."
"Cao Zhize, if you get promoted in the future, will you be as good to Xibao?"
"If Xibao doesn't let me down, how can I make Xibao unhappy? Regardless of whether I become an official in the future, Xibao and I will never leave each other."
"Cao Zhize, you have to keep your word. Xibao is my cousin. If you betray her, I will be the first to remove you from your official position."
At this time, Situ Jin came in. Behind him followed Xiao Dezi, the chief steward of the emperor.
"Cao Zhize received the imperial edict: By the will of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: I remember that Cao Zhize of Fucheng was diligent in doing business. To show his virtue, Cao Zhize has always been talented and has created wealth for the country in an orderly manner in the northern pirates, foreign borders, and the western regions. The country's finances are prosperous and the people live and work in peace and contentment."
"Today, I appoint Lord Cao as the Minister of Revenue, grant him a dragon robe and jade belt, and his descendants will inherit it. Lord Cao must continue to be honest and dedicated to public service. Share my worries. Help the country prosper and the people live and work in peace and contentment. I decree this."
"Master Cao, why don't you thank the Lord for His grace?" Xiao Dezi saw Cao Zhize lying on the ground in a daze. Although it seemed that there was no movement, Xiao Dezi was an experienced person. He was probably confused.
"Your Majesty, I, Cao Zhize, am honored to receive His Majesty's grace. I will do my best until my death. I will share His Majesty's worries. I will manage the country's finances, be loyal to my duties, and live up to His Majesty's grace. I will follow His Majesty's teachings and thank you for your grace. Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, long, long live the emperor!"
Cao Zhize stood up and took the imperial edict.
Then he handed Xiao Dezi a silver note as a token of his gratitude.
Cao Zhize himself was a scholar, so he could say and do what he said in these situations.
Xiao Dezi went back happily to report to the emperor.
"Sister Luo, I do feel it's a bit abrupt. You didn't even inform me in advance." Cao Zhize knew that this was borrowed light.
"I didn't know in advance that Ah Jin recommended you to be the Minister of Revenue. Because the previous Minister of Revenue was too old, and he was afraid that the accounts would be messed up if he managed the national treasury. Now most of the national treasury is made up of our money. You can manage it and make the accounts clear."
"Thank you, Crown Prince, and Crown Princess for your trust. Cao Zhize will definitely share the worries of the Emperor with all his heart. If you trust me, I will do my best. I will never let you down for your kindness to me."
"Xibao, go home and tell the good news. Your uncle and aunt have found a good son-in-law."
"Cousin, I'm going to Southeast Asia tomorrow. I'll tell my parents when I come back." Xibao heard that Cao Zhize really got promoted. And he was a high-ranking official. She smiled happily at Cao Zhize.
When Cao Zhize saw Xibao's face that looked like a flower, his heart was also filled with emotion.
But what happened when he heard Charlotte say to tell his uncle?
"Crown Princess, is Xibao the daughter of your uncle?"
"You are the daughter of the emperor's uncle! Why are you so happy that you are confused?"
"Didn't Xibao say her father was an ordinary official?"
"You still say your father is an ordinary official? You still say you are an ordinary businessman? What's wrong? Do you want to stop being friends with me? But it's too late. My cousin and his wife know about it. You should think about it yourself. Humph!"
Xibao said a lot of things in a flash. He was unhappy.
"A perfect match, a perfect match!"
