Chapter 255 – Table Word

Starting the next day, Zhao Su’s main position as an errand boy shifted to the Ministry of Ceremonies.

Fang Qingxue specially let people change her small room for a large room inside and outside, but also arranged some, outside the middle of the house a public case did not move, against the wall put a bookshelf, inside and outside the room in the middle of a Bo Gu Shelf as a partition, pasted a new window screen, and replaced the matching new curtains.

When Zhao Su entered the room, there was a fragrance of fragrant flowers, and it turned out that there were also several pots of orchids in full bloom in the room.

“I can’t see that Lord Fang is quite elegant!” Zhao Su was in a good mood and ran his hand through the orchid leaves and looked around, “This is more exquisite than your room, it’s not too good, is it?”

“Lord Zhao is a nobleman assigned by the Empress Dowager, and a thousand gold, naturally it should be more exquisite than this half old man like me.”

Fang Qingxue gathered her hands together and said with a smile.

Zhao Su, however, said, “Why is it still Lord Zhao?”

Fang Qingxue then took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to her, “The Ministry of Appointment has just issued an order of appointment, Lord Zhao is currently the Inspector of the Ministry of Ceremonies, as a fifth grade, and from now on he will be in charge of the regulations of the Flower Moon Club, which means that he is Lord Zhao?”

Zhao Su took it in her hand and looked at it carefully, and immediately realized that it must be Empress Dowager Lu’s intention. The Great Mistress was indeed thunderous, and so soon she had already been directly appointed as a female official through the Ministry of Appointments.

She thought for a moment and said, “There is no precedent of a woman being an official in the government office, the Empress Dowager must have gone through a lot of effort for this.”

Fang Qingxue stroked his beard, “So this is a newly appointed position. This inspector with Ci Ning Palace female officer of the same level, in charge of the Flower Moon Club, but also not untenable.”

Zhao Su is not difficult to guess that there must be some stalemate in the back, but the Ministry of Justice has already issued the paperwork, then there is no need for her to go deeper into the matter. At that moment, the paperwork received, and then with Fang Qingxue salute, smiled: “In the future, the adults are the top of the next official, the next official from now on will certainly be the energy of the whole book attached to the publication of the above, please take care of it.”

“Adults are polite!” Fang Qingxue also arched his hand and returned the salute. And then said, “Since we are talking about this, there is really something on hand that needs to be handled urgently, earlier because your honor is only responsible for supervising, I didn’t mention it.”

“What is it?”

“It is twenty years ago, a flower moon will be the master of the matter. It’s a bit of a long story, I’ll go back and organize it first, and then I’ll talk to you in detail tomorrow.”

Fang Qingxue said and stood up.

This day, Zhao Su did not have anything else to do, thinking about Zhang Yu is the big boss of the Ministry of Rites, since officially here as an official, then she also have to go to pay respect to the dock.

So she sent Hua Xiangrong back to the house, fetched two boxes of good tea, and took them to Zhang Yu’s official room.

The first time to the big boss’s territory, really elegant, although the courtyard is bare, but stood many magistrates, there are several officials of varying grades probably waiting to see, gathered hands looking at the room with bated breath.

Zhao Su or face, the doorway people informed, directly let her in.

Thought Zhang Shangshu is very busy, who knows he is just sitting behind the case to read the paper. At once realized that the modest and elegant Zhang Shangshu, there are also people he is impatient to see.

This time did not break, brought the tea presented, and then said: “Su’er talent is shallow, in the future, please Zhang uncle more advice.”

Zhang Yu looked at the tea, smiled and said: “It is true that you are a big girl who is going to get married, now you are more and more good at talking. This tea is again in line with your father, right?”

“Uncle Zhang, you’re teasing me again.”

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the magistrate brought in two cups of tea at the right temperature. Zhao Su tea to drink the moment, was on the case of a four-inch long broken sword attracted attention.

A scholar’s case, but put a weapon, how this is a little bit discordant.

“This side of Uncle Zhang’s case seems to have some origin?” She still couldn’t help but ask. Since it was placed on the book case, there shouldn’t be anything that couldn’t be asked, right?

Zhang Yu smiled, “More than twenty years ago, this sword almost killed me.”

“Oh?”

“At that time, I was following the late emperor to pacify the country, and there were enemies lurking in the shadows. I advised the late emperor and naturally became a thorn in their side. Just one year before the state was settled, we arrived at the capital and were assassinated outside the city, but fortunately I was saved.”

Zhao Su hears about the year before the state was finalized and immediately says, “Could it be the time at Li Zi Po?”

Zhang Yu is slightly surprised, “You know about it too?”

Zhao Su vaguely says, “I’ve heard about it.”

The Li Zi Po incident refers to the later part of the original novel, when the country was about to be finalized. Zhang Yu, like the late Emperor and Marquis Qingyun, is a group of hot-blooded children stationed outside the city at Lizi Slope, and one night during a rally, Zhang Yu goes out of his tent to look at the stars and is attacked by the enemy army, which alerts a few generals in the camp, and only then is the crisis resolved.

Because it’s a supporting role, it’s not written in detail, and which generals it is, is not described in detail. With the protagonist has nothing to do with the drama, these are ignored past the life and death of sadness and joy, can only be by the supporting characters themselves to remember.

Outside the door there are a bunch of people waiting, although Zhang Yu as usual as graceful and comfortable, Zhao Su can also see that he is not so idle, sat for a while he said goodbye.

After leaving the courtyard gate, he looked back and saw that the officials who were waiting earlier had all been sent out.

The world’s evaluation of Zhang Yu is modest and elegant noble and indifferent, perfect as if there is no need to take a wife, Zhao Su thought about it, looking at the world, but also can not find who can match with him, – compared to the equally good Qingyun Marquis, he is still the first marriage, which is not even more difficult to find it? The only outstanding one also became the empress dowager, yes, when the emperor and queen followed the side of the Zhang Shangshu, it will not be Mary Sue empress dowager’s one of the fans, right?

Zhao Su knocked this gossip when, just five Fu came, said the emperor let him into the palace to eat chestnuts.

Eat chestnuts ……

Is this the emperor’s romance?

Then she went to Qianqing Palace.

The emperor dismissed his courtiers and let her in. Moved to the couch and sat down, one side unfolded the fan to fan her, one side of the table is still hot a plate of fried chestnuts pushed to her: “In the Ministry of Rites this day how?”

Zhao Su peeled one: “Everything else is fine, but Fang Qingxue called me one adult at a time, it’s weird.”

The emperor laughed: “You are the one who will be in charge of the middle palace, after the wedding, they will have to kneel down and call you “Your Highness”, so naturally you have to be more respectful.”

Zhao Su was unimpressed. Then said, “Why don’t you give me another epithet for people to address, it sounds better.”

“Like this,” the emperor thought for a moment, “That’s fine.”

Zhao Su further admonished, “Why don’t you just call me Xiao Zhen.”

The emperor did not say anything.

“This is the name my grandmother gave me, I want to keep it.”

The emperor glanced at her with a blear-eyed look and tapped her head with his fan, “If you’re not allowed to, what will you do?”

Zhao Su shrugged her shoulders, “If it’s not allowed, it’s nothing.”

The emperor glanced at her, reached out for a pen and paper, wrote the words “Xiao Zhen” on it, fastened his personal seal and gave it to her.

Zhao Su took it and looked at it, beautifully putting the paper away, “Thank you, Your Majesty!”
