Chapter 165 Is this thing expensive?
The emperor's birthday was very cumbersome. After many princes and ministers gave gifts, they had to submit a congratulation form. The so-called congratulation form was actually a flattery. At this time, it was time for civil servants to perform. All kinds of gorgeous words were piled up in the congratulation form and read it out in a scattered manner.
Li Xin was drowsy when he heard these congratulatory statements, but Emperor Chengde narrowed his eyes and was quite proud.
This is how people like to listen to good words. Outsiders even feel disgusting when they say something that pleases them, but the parties involved often don’t notice it at all. Moreover, these scholars will not criticize them in a vulgar way. They quote classics and have a very good literary talent.
Those with lower education can't understand what they are saying.
About an hour later, it was noon. Emperor Chengde was probably tired of these flatteries and waved his hand: "Okay, it's noon. You are going to have a meal in the palace first. When it's evening, I will have a good drink with you."
All the officials bowed their heads one after another, shouting long live the mountain.
Li Xin also bowed down.
The civil and military officials left the hall, followed several small eunuchs, and walked towards the side hall where the banquet guests were. Li Xin also followed these people, preparing to have a meal.
As soon as he got up, he saw His Highness the King of Wei walking towards him.
Li Xin bowed and said, "Your Highness."
The seventh prince smiled and laughed: "The thing that Brother Xin made was a big hit today. My father had been playing with that object just now, and he was reluctant to let go."
Li Xin lowered his head slightly: "Your Highness, I accidentally discovered that thing a few days ago. It was made out as a treat and asked the princess to serve as a gift. I never thought that Your Majesty would like this."
Although both of them were smiling, they each had some thoughts in their hearts.
The Seventh Prince was somewhat surprised that Li Xin did not hand over this good thing to him and asked him to give it to Emperor Chengde.
After all, he is the prince, so it is much more important to give him favorability than to give the Ninth Princess.
It’s not that Li Xin didn’t understand this, but in fact he did it on purpose.
Since getting along with the brother and sister, Li Xin can somewhat see the temperament of the prince and the princess. Although the Ninth Princess is a bit unruly, she has no worries. Li Xin can let go of all her guard when she gets along with her.
The Seventh Prince, on the surface, obeyed Li Xinyan, but in fact, everyone was using each other's relationship. The reason why Li Xin did not hand over this telescope to the Seventh Prince was to tell the King of Wei that he had other choices.
Or, he has more good things.
There is a strong wine in front of it, which makes another Qianli Mile Mile Mile Mile. Who knows how many thoughts are hidden in Li Xinxin?
His Highness, the King of Wei, narrowed his eyes and showed more affectionateness to Li Xin: "What is that Brother Xin? How could he make his father care about this?"
Li Xin's face was calm.
"Your Highness, that was just a thing of appreciation, which could make people look farther away. The reason why Your Majesty is so concerned is probably because... he wants to use it to do other things."
The Seventh Prince was also a smart man. He immediately figured out the secret when he heard this. He looked serious and said in a deep voice: "No wonder my father is like this..."
Before he could finish his words, the eunuch Chen Ju, whose hair was already a little gray, walked slowly to the two of them. Chen Ju used a skill to the seventh prince, then turned to Li Xin and smiled: "Prince Li, your Majesty has something to call you."
"If you need any help, say hello to the Ministry of Works and ask the Ministry of Works to send someone to help you."
Speaking of this, Emperor Chengde looked at Li Xin with a smile: "The Ministry of Works is Lao Qi in charge. If you are familiar with Lao Qi, you don't need to give orders to the Ministry of Works again?"
Li Xin's heart moved.
It seems that His Majesty the Emperor probably already knows his relationship with the Wei Palace.
"Don't worry, I won't let you do things in vain. If you do it, I will give you benefits."
