I did evil in the feudal land, but I was called a virtuous king

"Father, my son is talented and intelligent, self-taught." Li An is not humble at all.

The old emperor rolled his eyes at Li An, but deep in his eyes were full of approval and admiration, but he said arrogantly: "Other people travel far and wide to do business, and they are exposed to the wind and the sun.

It's good for you, just sitting here in Qingshui County, someone will send you a lot of money. How easy is it for you to earn money? "

Li An grinned: "Father, my son does not rely on his legs to make money, but on his brain."

"Okay, if you blow it any longer, you're going to fly into the sky." The old emperor rolled his eyes at Li An: "You kid can earn so much money in a short while, why are you still cheating on me?"

"Vip." Princess Lanwei reminded.

"Yes, vip, you can make so much money, why do you want me to be a VIP?" the old emperor asked.

"Ah?" Li An was stunned, turning his head to look at Princess Lanwei in doubt: "Are you also filled with vip?"

Princess Lanwei shrugged: "If you are not a VIP, you will not be given a box."

As she said that, she stretched out her hand towards Li An: "Ninth brother, give me the money, I recharged 100 taels of vip!"

The corner of Li An's mouth twitched fiercely. Which of the short-sighted employees cheated him so much that he only gave the box to the current emperor as a VIP?

"No, you are my sister, they really asked you to be a VIP?"

Princess Lanwei shrugged again, with a helpless expression on her face: "The people in your restaurant are all newcomers, they don't know me."

"You don't know how to identify yourself?" Li An glared at Princess Lanwei. In fact, Princess Lanwei is fine, mainly because the old emperor is here.

Anything that involves the emperor is a big deal!

"Ninth Brother, Father is visiting in private this time, and he is taking the Empress to relax. You can't reveal your identity at will. Ninth Brother, don't change the subject, give me money quickly. My sister is very poor!"

"Boom~" Li An's chestnut fell on Princess Lanwei's head: "I want the money to go to the bank to get it by myself, don't make trouble."

Regardless of the aggrieved Princess Lanwei, Li An smiled awkwardly and looked at the old emperor: "Father, it's all a misunderstanding, so what, I'll call the person who asked you to act as a VIP to admit his mistake?"

The old emperor waved his hand: "Don't bother me, I won't bother with a young man, I've already drank the tea, it's getting late, take me and your mother back to the mansion."

"Okay." Li An nodded, and walked over to support Empress Qi.

Everyone walked on the street, and the passers-by saluted respectfully.

"Caomin has seen the prince and His Highness."

These people did not know the identities of the old emperor and Empress Qi, but they still saluted respectfully.

The old emperor walked and observed the people around him. The faces of the people were filled with uncontrollable joy, which was a sense of happiness born from the heart.

This expression was something he had never seen in the capital.

It can be seen that Li An really managed southern Xinjiang very well.

The streets are full of bustle and flowers, and it is worthy of the title of this small capital.

The more he looked at the old emperor, the more satisfied he became, and he even thought in his heart, if he left the third and fourth children to this remote village, would they be able to develop southern Xinjiang so prosperously?

He didn't even expect them to make southern Xinjiang prosperous. He just wondered, do they have the ability to feed and clothe the people in southern Xinjiang?

The more he thought about it, the old emperor shook his head in disappointment and at the same time heaved a long sigh.

"Why is Your Majesty sighing?" Empress Qi looked at the old emperor suspiciously.

The old emperor turned his head and smiled at Empress Qi: "Empress, the children you brought out are all good."

"Father, if you want to praise Ninth Brother, just praise him directly. Why are you being so tactful?" Princess Lanwei interjected.

"You are the one who talks too much." The old emperor glared at Princess Lanwei.

Princess Lanwei shrugged her shoulders as usual.

Not long after, everyone appeared at the gate of Ping An Bank.

The old emperor looked up at the signboard of the Ping An Bank, with a puzzled expression on his face: "Old Jiu, why did you bring us here?"

"Go home." Li An was puzzled.

"You don't have your own palace?" The old emperor was greatly shocked.

He saw that Li An's tea house was so extravagant, and thought that his palace should be even more luxurious, but in the end...

"No." Li An nodded honestly. He knew that the crying child had milk to eat, so he cried poorly: "Father, my son is really poor."

The old emperor looked at Li An questioningly: "Just now, you earned 5 taels of silver in just a short while, and you are crying poor with me? Besides, didn't the fourth brother allocate money for you to repair the palace from the treasury?"

Chapter 221 The Mother

"Alas~" Li An sighed, and continued to cry poorly: "Father, you know that my son is now going to provide the northern border with armaments, food and grass.

There are still a large number of workers to support in order to maintain the expenses of the northern war.Moreover, the son-in-law has just recruited 20 troops, and the salaries and armaments all cost a lot of money.

Father, you also know that fighting is fighting for money! "

After hearing Li An's words, the old emperor nodded in agreement.

Empress Qi looked at Li An with distressed eyes, feeling sorry for An'er.

As a prince, he has been in the fief for so many years, yet he doesn't even have his own palace.

The child has been wronged, and as a mother, I feel very uncomfortable in my heart.

"How about this, when I go back, I will ask the fourth brother to give you some money."

"Thank you, father, but don't touch the treasury, the money in the treasury is reserved for emergencies." Li An grinned, "Father, it just so happened, didn't the Nanling countries go to Beijing to pay homage? Or, Give Erchen a little more?"

That's twice the tribute!Isn't it more fragrant than appropriating money from the treasury?

"Court service?" The old emperor looked surprised: "How come I don't know about this?"

"Father, don't you know?" Li An was also surprised.

How could the royal father not know?Without his permission, the countries of Nanling would not be able to come to Beijing to meet at court!

The old emperor thought for a moment, and then said helplessly: "It may be that I have already left the palace, and their court documents were sent to the capital.

It seems that I can't stay in your Qingshui County for a long time. "

Empress Qi's eyes were also full of disappointment. She originally wanted to spend more time with Li An, but she also knew that the overall situation was the most important.

Your Majesty still has to meet each other in court, otherwise it will lose the style of a great country.

"Why?" Li An asked pretending to be puzzled.

The old emperor looked at Li An speechlessly: "Wouldn't it be a loss of a great country's demeanor if I'm not in the capital when all the countries meet at court?"

Li An waved his hand disapprovingly: "Father, don't think so much, they just went to the capital to make amends, you are happy to see them to give them face, and not happy to see them is to teach them a lesson.

They dare not have any thoughts, let alone speak nonsense.If there is a stabbing, the minister there will be reluctant to pay a home visit! "

"Now they are apologizing for the establishment of diplomatic relations. These people are all your vassals. Whether the emperor wants to see his ministers is not a matter of the emperor!"

The old emperor frowned and thought for a while, yes, they went to the capital to make amends after being frightened by Lao Jiu, and it was not a normal meeting to establish diplomatic relations.

Even if I don't see them, it can be regarded as a lesson and a warning to them.

Thinking of this, the old emperor continued: "Forget it, I won't be leaving for now.

Since you want the gold, silver and jewelry from the tribute, I will ask someone to bring them to you after I go back. "

"Father Huang Shengming."

Li An flattered him, even though Zhu Guo brought him a tribute as a gift from the very beginning.

But he has self-knowledge that the world belongs to the old emperor, and the old emperor can only accept it when he gives it to him.

Process is still necessary.

……

As soon as Li An and the others settled down in the courtyard, Tian Qi hurried over with the officials of the county government.

"The county magistrate of Qingshui County, Tian Qi, kowtowed to His Majesty, but did not know that His Majesty was here in person, and if I missed him, please punish him!" Tian Qi pressed his head on the ground, his body trembling.

His Majesty came to Qingshui County, but he didn't take the people out of the city to greet him, and even went to the teahouse to cut the ribbon with the prince himself, why was he so confused?

"Tian Qi, right? Look up." The old emperor's majestic voice came.

Tian Qi raised his head tremblingly, his eyes were full of panic and fear.

"Tian Qi, I have heard about you in the imperial court. You have managed Qingshui County in an orderly manner, which is good." The old emperor nodded.

Tian Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly said: "Your Majesty, I don't have any credit for this humble minister, it's all due to your majesty and the prince.

If His Majesty hadn't been so wise to send the prince to Qingshui County, I am afraid that if His Majesty came to Qingshui County today, he would not see this peaceful and prosperous world, but only a lifeless empty city! "

Li An looked at Tian Qi in surprise, when did Lao Tian learn to flatter?

The old emperor frowned, not because Tian Qi flattered him.

He was just thinking, could it be that the previous disaster in Qingshui County was more severe than what he knew?

Thinking of this, his gaze became cold, and he immediately looked at Li An with even more appreciation in his eyes.

The old emperor nodded again, and said seriously: "From now on, follow An'er to learn and work hard."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Tian Qi briefly reported to the old emperor, and immediately withdrew.

Before leaving, the old emperor reminded him that this time he was out of Beijing for a private visit, and he didn't need to inform other people.

Tian Qi nodded understandingly.

Afterwards, Li An asked people to go down to prepare dinner. Princess Lanwei took Empress Qi for a stroll in the bank, while Li An and the old emperor lay in the yard basking in the sun and drinking tea.

"You really know how to enjoy it, kid." The old emperor had a look of enjoyment.

"Father, isn't my son earning money just for enjoyment?" Li An grinned.

"Why are you digging such a big pool in the yard? It has something to do with Feng Shui?" The old emperor looked at the pool curiously.

"Father, this is the swimming pool. It's for swimming. It has nothing to do with Feng Shui. My son Chenxiu is here to cool off."

The old emperor nodded. The southern Xinjiang is extremely hot, and it is quite cool to take a dip in the water if you have nothing to do.

He only thought that Li An's swimming pool was used to cool off the heat, but he didn't expect that Li An was about to use the swimming pool to his full potential...

After all, Li An was in his heart, but he was a gentleman and the pillar of the country, and he didn't think of Li An as an old critic.

The father and son were drinking tea, Princess Lanwei came back quietly, and whispered in Li An's ear: "Ninth brother, the empress wants to chat with you alone."

Li An glanced at Princess Lanwei suspiciously, then bid farewell to the old emperor and left quickly.

"Queen, are you looking for me?" Li An looked at Empress Qi suspiciously.

Empress Qi squeezed out a smile, her eyes were filled with distress, she groped in her sleeves, and immediately took out some precious jewelry and handed them to Li An.

"An'er, the queen mother doesn't have any valuables in her hands, so you can take these." Empress Qi held Li An's hand distressedly.

If it wasn't for them, the Qi family would have been in decline a long time ago, and she would not be able to spend even a little money to help her son as a dignified empress.

Li An was stunned, he looked along and saw that the hairpin on Empress Qi's head had disappeared.

Facing Empress Qi's distressed eyes, Li An felt his eyes sore.

What a selfless mother's love, I am not her own son yet.

Just after listening to herself crying and being poor, she gave herself all the valuable things on her body.

Li An reached out and rubbed his eyes, and squeezed out a smile: "Mother, my son is not short of money, please put away your things."

"But An'er, didn't you say before..." Empress Qi looked at Li An suspiciously, thinking that Li An couldn't save face, she put the jewelry in Li An's hands again.

"An'er, just take it, and treat it as a gift from the queen mother to Miss Liu." Empress Qi said with a loving face.

"Queen Mother, I will take you to a place." Li An said as he supported Empress Qi and walked forward.

"

Chapter 222 Paving the Way

Not long after, the mother and son appeared in the warehouse of Ping An Bank.

Li An waved his hand, and the guards of the warehouse quickly opened the door of the warehouse.

The scene of the warehouse is gradually revealed.
