Because of what his father-in-law had instructed him the previous day, on the morning of the second day, Mo Qingyan arrived at the princess' mansion, dressed in very proper attire, under the care of the Ah Nuo.
This prefecture wasn't that small, but it wasn't that big either. However, the garden guest rooms were well-equipped, and the style was simple and comfortable.
Mo Qingyan was very satisfied with the place. The most surprising thing was that the distance from here to the Wild Peak's secret base was only two streets.
In the future, it would be much more convenient to interact with Wild Peak, and his reputation would be revealed.
Because it was already close to the end of the year, Mo Qingyan did not buy the maidservant. He directly transferred two out of his own maidservant from the Minister's Mansion.
These maidservant s all knew about each other, and adding the information from his past life, it was very easy for Mo Qingyan to get two maidservant s who were very loyal to him to come here.
"You two will stay here from now on. I'll buy some cleaning maidservant s after the new year."
"There's no butler in the mansion right now. If there's anything important, you can go and notify me at Minister's Mansion."
Mo Qingyan instructed the two of them, before he could finish, the eunuch, who came yesterday to announce the order, came again. This time he had brought a reward.
She first sang out the sample number and amount of the rewards before handing the list over to Mo Qingyan.
"Princess Wen Zhao, all the gifts are recorded here. "The civil and military officials' congratulatory gifts are also recorded in the same way."
"Thank you for your hard work, eunuch. So we came again. " Mo Qingyan smiled as he looked at him, and Ah Nuo took out another bag to give it to him.
This eunuch weighed the money in his hand, and the money in his hands was no smaller than the money he had earned yesterday. His eyes narrowed into a line as he laughed.
"Princess, our family knows that we'll be busy in the near future. But no matter what, it is essential that we pay respects to the masters of the imperial harem. "
Since this eunuch had received sufficient benefits, he naturally couldn't take it for free. At this time, Mo Qingyan more or less should at least bring up a few rules, for he had to accept his kindness.
"Thank you for your advice, Eunuch. I've already put this matter in my heart. In the future, I will visit the palace. " Mo Qingyan agreed with a smile on his face, and after exchanging a few more pleasantries, he left with Ah Nuo.
"Miss, are you really going to enter the palace?" Regarding the matter of entering the palace, the Ah Nuo seemed to have a natural sense of rejection. However, this cannot be blamed on the Ah Nuo.
After all, every time Mo Qingyan entered the palace, either the Emperor had ill intentions towards him, or someone had to deliberately make things difficult for him. How could the Ah Nuo relax after this cycle?
"I must go in. After all, I am a princess personally conferred by the Emperor, and can be considered a member of the imperial harem. If I don't go, I'm afraid a lot of people will start to gossip. "
Mo Qingyan also didn't want to return to the palace, especially to the palace that didn't have Lin Zifeng.
But as the father-in-law had said, this was the process that had to be followed. No one would be able to avoid him unless he didn't care about relationships.
How can people not manage their own relationships when they live in this world? Furthermore, Mo Qingyan still had to complete that important mission in this life.
"Then when should we go? This servant will prepare it in advance. " Going to see someone inevitably required a gift, and the Ah Nuo had to prepare the gifts beforehand so that it would not seem rude.
"There's no need to prepare anything. Prepare more silver coins, preferably those small banknotes, as well as some crushed silver. If that's not enough, then take some gold and trade. "
Mo Qingyan had lived in the palace in his previous life, so he naturally knew what was needed in the palace the most. Those masters usually liked to use silver and banknotes to reward their subordinates.
These two things could be said to be extremely popular. In addition, the amount of money they received was relatively small, so it seemed like they were very generous and didn't have any heartache. Therefore, this kind of small amount of banknotes and crushed silver was very popular.
"But to give away money on our first meeting, wouldn't that make the princess look too disrespectful?" The Ah Nuo had her own considerations, after all, she had never heard of someone sending gifts to the palace to deliver these.
"This was secretly given to them. They don't even have enough time to be happy, how can they even care about our manor's modesty?"
Even speaking of sending some rare treasures to the palace, it was actually quite good. It's just that if you're not sure about other people's interest, then you're afraid of flattering them.
Since Mo Qingyan had already given the order, then Ah Nuo could only follow it.
This was because the matter of entering the palace needed to be completed as soon as possible. The Ah Nuo had only prepared two days' worth of silver coins. In order to prevent unnecessary complications, Mo Qingyan had entered the palace a long time ago.
Mo Qingyan first went to the main palace to pay respects to the empress. This empress was the biological mother of the current Crown Prince Long Xiwei, and he was also there when he arrived.
When Long Xiwei saw Mo Qingyan, his eyes shone with the light he was determined to win, and they exchanged some small talk. Although Mo Qingyan was annoyed, he did not show it.
After giving his gift to the empress, he hurriedly took his leave. The way he left looked like he was fleeing for his life.
"This girl is rather meticulous, it's easy to make a mistake when she comes to the palace to gift things." She chose the easiest one. "
The Queen pulled the silver out of the box and twisted it in satisfaction. Long Xiwei's interest in her had also grown even more.
After greeting the proper masters in the palace, Mo Qingyan was about to go and pay respects to the empress dowager. The empress dowager was not the emperor's biological mother, so her position was rather awkward.
But Her Majesty was very tactful and never paid any attention to the matters of the court. Even the relatives of the Empress Mother never showed off their power.
The emperor was very satisfied with this tactful empress dowager, so he treated her with filial piety. Mo Qingyan had never seen the empress dowager in his previous life and was extremely nervous when he went to meet her in this life.
After all, the empress dowager was Lin Zifeng's father and mother, and was also his biological grandmother. Back then, it was also the empress dowager who protected Lin Zifeng's life. Therefore, Mo Qingyan was extremely respectful to the empress dowager in his heart.
"Empress Dowager, the emperor's newly conferred Princess Wen Zhao is here." When nanny Li saw Mo Qingyan, he was extremely surprised. After all, the empress dowager had long retreated behind the scenes.
Many people did not even remember to pay their respects to the empress dowager when they entered the palace. This little girl was rather interesting. I'm afraid he has ulterior motives.
nanny Li's eyes flickered, but he didn't ask any further questions and directly returned to his room to talk with the empress dowager.
"Princess Wen Zhao?" Her Majesty was sitting on the couch, rubbing Buddha beads and praying. Hearing nanny Li's words, he opened his eyes: "Let her in. I also have to see what kind of beautiful person Zifeng takes to heart. "
