C112 Sesame Seed

The same face had a new feeling, day and night. Princess Fei Ling was stunned once again.

"Thank you, Young Master, for risking your life to save me that day. I can't thank you enough." Princess Fei Ling hastily rose from her seat and bent her knees towards Han Xiangyuan. Her eyes were downcast, but she would occasionally sneak furtive glances in his direction.

Although Han Xiangyuan had noticed the movements of Soaring Cloud, he acted as if he didn't know what was going on. "Princess, you're being too polite. It's my honor to be able to save you."

Princess Fei Ling was about to say something when she saw a eunuch scurry in. "Princess, the Emperor heard that the Princess had found a savior, so he dragged this old servant here to inquire about the situation."

Fei Ling said, "Eunuch Li, this Young Master Han is the person who saved me last time."

Gonggong Li sized up Han Xiangyuan a few times, but he was still respectful. "Young Master Han, the emperor wishes to meet the person who saved the princess. I hope that you can accompany me there."

This matter had fallen into Han Xiangyuan's hands. He had come to the palace to meet the princess and had even more so wanted to meet the emperor. Although the princess held great power in her hands, she was still unable to remove her official position. To him, the real attraction of this matter wasn't a thousand taels of silver, but the chance to obtain an official position.

Eunuch Li led Han Xiangyuan into the imperial study. Along the way, the palace's extravagant and exquisite decorations were constantly dazzling to Han Xiangyuan. Although their Han family was well-off, they were still a well-known merchant in the city.

Han Xiangyuan believed himself to be someone who had seen much of the world, but the treasures in his home paled in comparison to those in the palace.

Although his heart was filled with envy and shock, Han Xiangyuan hid it well, not revealing it. Instead, he wore a calm expression, as if there were no ripples at all.

When they reached the imperial study, the emperor was in the midst of reviewing the imperial reports when he heard Eunuch Li's report. He looked at Han Xiangyuan and asked, "Young Master Han is the one who saved the princess?"

The emperor's words were neither fast nor slow, but his eyes were fixed on Han Xiangyuan, radiating a boundless pressure.

Han Jinyuan bowed. "Yes, Your Majesty. I am."

The emperor withdrew his gaze and continued to read through the imperial report in his hands, but that intense pressure did not weaken in the slightest. He nodded slightly and said, "Go fetch the thousand taels of silver. Later, help Young Master Han return to his estate."

"Your majesty, this commoner doesn't need a thousand taels of silver." Han Xiangyuan's voice was firm.

The emperor's hand that was holding onto the quill was startled as he raised his head to look at Han Xiangyuan. "It's not Young Master Han, what's the meaning of this? But I don't think this thousand taels of silver is enough. I'm not satisfied with this."

"This commoner doesn't mean that. This commoner thinks that one thousand silver taels is too much." Han Xiangyuan saw the curiosity in the emperor's eyes, and understood that his plan had been largely fulfilled. "Your majesty, saving people is but a simple task. We don't want anything in return."

"Young Master Han's words are very nice, but if you really don't want anything in return, then why did you come here to acknowledge him?" Isn't it because of these silver taels? " The emperor was not moved by his words. After all, he had seen too many of these little tricks.

"Your Majesty, this commoner saw the notice and said that the princess wanted to meet with the person who saved her life. Now that we have achieved our goal, we shall not seek any more favors. " Han Xiangyuan's voice was loud and clear in the great hall.

The emperor carefully sized him up. Seeing that his expression was serious, he didn't seem to be lying, his expression also slightly changed. "Young Master Han's intentions are good, but in the end you saved the princess's life. You can't have no meaning.

Han Shengyuan didn't bother to reply. Instead, he quietly waited for the next part. "I've seen Young Master Han speak in an extraordinary manner and have a bit of a reputation in the capital. How about I grant you the title of the Han Forest Academy's editors?"

"Thank you, your majesty!" Han Xiangyuan was overjoyed. Although this position was only at the seventh rank, it was still a far cry from what he had hoped to achieve in the end. As long as he entered the government, with his methods, why would he be afraid of not being able to get promoted?

As soon as Han Xiangyuan returned from the palace, he saw his mother and many members of the Han Family come over to welcome him. It was obvious that he had heard this news from someone else.

Their Han Family had been doing business for generations, but their ancestors had no influence in the government. This affected their business in an attempt to expand further.

Now that Han Xiangyuan had successfully become an official, the future glory of the Han Residence could already be imagined.

Listening to Yu Xuan.

"Miss." Blue Luan carried the cup of tea into the house and softly spoke beside Mu Qiantang, "I heard that Young Master Han was given the title of Han Lin Yuan because he saved Princess Feiling."

Mu Yu Ting was startled. The hand holding the book was startled. "Han Lin Institution's editor?"

"Yeah, the Han Family is extremely excited right now and they are celebrating with all their might!" "Lady Han even publicized the news, as if she was afraid that others wouldn't know about it."

Mu Yu Ting quickly returned to normal, and continued to move the pages in her hands, saying slowly, "It's just the editors of Han Lin Courtyard, a seventh rank official." "It's all thanks to Han Residence's excitement. If Han Xiangyuan were to ascend to a fifth-grade official position one day, wouldn't they be in an uproar?

Xiao Cheng, who was standing to the side, frowned when he heard this news. Naturally, he knew much more about the matters of the palace. At first, the Emperor only planned to use silver to deal with him, but in the end, why would he give him an official title?

It was likely that Han Xiangyuan had done a lot of things behind his back, or else he'd done them too well on the surface and had attracted the attention of the emperor. If that was the case, his Mind's Eye would be much stronger.

"Don't be careless, Han Xiangyuan is a petty person." He still wanted to frame you when there was nothing left to do. Now that he had the authority to be an official, he had to be even more lawless. You still have to be careful. "

Mu Yu Ting shook her head, clearly not taking this to heart. "He's just playing around with some tricks, and he can't come up with any new tricks. Why should I be afraid of him?"

Xiao Zhen frowned and said with a serious expression, "He is definitely not as simple as you think he is. He has a lot on his mind. The fact that you were able to obtain an official position from this was the best proof. If you were too careless, you would eventually make a mistake. "

Mu Yuting replied in a rather perfunctory manner, pretending that she was listening, but in reality, her heart did not attract any attention.

Xiao Chen understood her mental state very well. Seeing that his grandmother's words were useless, he could only sigh helplessly and let her go.

In any case, even if something did happen, with his protection, this silly girl wouldn't make any big mistakes.
