"Oh? So capable?" Emperor Zheng'an was a little surprised.

He had always thought that Lu Ke'er was just a female doctor with superb medical skills, who was lucky enough to save his grandson. Of course, he was grateful for this, so he was willing to reward her. However, he did not think that a child who grew up in a mountain village would have such a big vision.

It's understandable that Ye Feng is partial to Lu Ke'er, but since even Zheng Youde praised Lu Ke'er, he had to be more careful.

After a moment of silence, he asked Ye Feng, "Since Miss Lu is so outstanding, there is no reason for her to be buried in the countryside. Ming Xiao, how about I give her a house in the capital and bring her to the capital?"

Ye Feng's heart skipped a beat. He was willing to bring Lu Ke'er to Beijing, but...

He calmed his mind, lowered his gaze, and replied calmly: "Grandpa Emperor, you don't know that Miss Lu longs for a pastoral life. Moreover, some of her businesses have just started, so she may not be willing to come to the capital at this time."

Emperor Zheng'an raised his eyebrows slightly.

It turns out that she is not the kind of girl who is greedy for fame and fortune and pursues wealth and glory.

Or maybe, the goal is bigger?

He nodded and changed the subject: "I heard that Duan Tianhao was poisoned?"

Ye Feng replied, "Yes. However, my grandson has already sent Gao Yutang to go there."

"Gao Quting is a good grandson. I think his ability to detoxify is better than his grandfather's." Emperor Zheng'an still has a good impression of this honest young man. "Thanks to him these days, otherwise I don't know when I can wake up."

"Grandpa Emperor is blessed with great fortune. Even without this kid, you will be fine."

"Every time I sit in the court, accept the kneeling worship of hundreds of officials, and listen to the thunderous cheers of "Long live, long live, long live!" I think that if I can live to be a hundred years old, it is already a blessing from heaven. How can I live to be ten thousand years old? Wouldn't that make me a god?" Seeing Ye Feng opening his mouth as if he wanted to say something, he waved his hand to stop him and said, "I am not senile yet. There have been countless emperors who have pursued the art of immortality, but I know very well that I am a mortal. I will age, become sick, be bedridden, and lose my vitality. Mingxiao, Grandpa Huang has always been worried about what to do if you are not in good health. Now Grandpa Huang is relieved. In the final analysis, I still have to thank Miss Lu. Regardless of whether the poison in my body can be cured, Grandpa Huang has no regrets now. I just don't know if your grandmother will blame me when Grandpa Huang sees her after he dies in the future. Alas..."

After saying so many words in one breath, Emperor Zheng'an suddenly felt a tightness in his chest and couldn't help coughing.

Ye Feng hurried forward and gently stroked his chest, feeling aggrieved.

As soon as his beloved grandson recovered, the breath that had supported Emperor Zheng'an for many years suddenly dissipated. Ye Feng had no doubt that Emperor Zheng'an didn't care about his life or death at all. Perhaps, in Emperor Zheng'an's view, death might be a kind of relief.

But how could he bear to see his grandfather lose the will to live?

"I often hear Grandpa Huang talk about your youth. At that time, you rode a horse and visited many places, admired the mountains and rivers, and experienced the local customs and people. I have always wanted to ask, Grandpa Huang, are there any places you haven't been to?"

Emperor Zheng'an recovered his breath, and upon hearing this, his thoughts drifted back to the days when he was full of vigor and vitality and made friends with others.

"Places I haven't been to?" His eyes finally lit up a little. "Alas, there are so many. The world is so big, how can I go to all the places? Especially since I ascended the throne, I have been imprisoned in this capital and trapped in the Golden Palace. I can't go anywhere."

Listening to the tone, he seems very aggrieved.

Ye Feng smiled faintly, with a hint of coaxing in his words: "Grandpa Emperor, you must get better as soon as possible. There are so many beautiful sights in this world. Apart from other things, the scenery around Xilin County is so beautiful that people will never want to leave."

Emperor Zheng'an was half-believing and half-doubting: "Is it really that good?"

“That’s where this piece of purple jade was found.”

"It seems to be a lucky place." Emperor Zheng'an's heart moved slightly.

…………

After the New Year, almost every household in Lingxia Village becomes busy.

Because the Lu family was granted a lot of mountains, forests and farmland, they became the largest family in Xilin County. Lu Keer took the time to inspect her own farmland and mountains one by one, and then planned its use according to the actual situation of each place. She planned to build orchards and medicinal fields in the mountains, and breeding farms in the waterside areas.

She recruited a lot of laborers in the village to help her build the farm she dreamed of. After several months of construction, the Red Persimmon Villa has taken shape. She would go over to take a look from time to time, and her heart was filled with joy as she saw the blueprints gradually become real things.

She bought two shops in good locations in Xilin County, planning to convert them into a pickle and delicatessen shop and a scented tea shop. She handed them over to Shi Chenxing to manage. Shi Chenxing ran back and forth between the villa and the shop, and was very busy.

Seeing that he did everything himself, Lu Ke'er couldn't help but remind him: "My business may grow bigger and bigger in the future, and you can't handle everything by yourself. You have to train capable subordinates."

In fact, Shi Chenxing also thought about finding someone, but he was worried that those people would not care as much as he did.

Lu Ke'er knew his concerns and taught him: "Before hiring someone, you must carefully investigate him. Once you decide to hire him, you must trust him. You must find two capable and loyal shopkeepers for these two stores. In the future, my business will not only make a lot of money, but at least it will make a lot of money. The shopkeeper must have good character."

Shi Chenxing nodded quickly in agreement.

He was lucky that the young lady could teach him step by step, and he was even more blessed to be able to follow the young lady.

He had saved up some money and planned to buy a small yard in the town in two months and live a good life with his friends. They couldn't occupy Young Master Rong's house forever.

In the future, he will work hard to make himself better and become the young lady's right-hand man.

He didn't have any big ambitions, he just wanted to do good things for the young lady. He could see that the young lady was a capable person with great ambitions. Following her, they would all have a good life.

A few days later, taking advantage of the start of the spring semester, Lu Ke'er began to prepare for Lu Mingxi's admission.

There were two private schools and one academy in Jinji Town, and she chose that academy.

The name of this academy is Yiming Academy, which means "a surprising achievement at the first sight". The dean is said to be a learned man with a good reputation in the town and even in the whole Xilin County.

The entrance examination for Yiming Academy is on the second day of February.

On this day, the Lu family got up early. Various snacks were prepared in the kitchen. Lu Ke'er asked Qiu Shui to pack two large boxes of exquisite snacks. In addition, she prepared some health-preserving flower tea and dried meat and pickles, which were packed in exquisite gift boxes and prepared as gifts for the dean and the teacher who taught the class.

Lu Tianning had already prepared the four treasures of the study for his son. Lu Keer thought of modern school bags, drew a blueprint, and asked Ji to sew a backpack according to the blueprint. Although it was not as beautiful as the modern style, it was unique in the entire Tianqi Dynasty. The novel and unique appearance and more complete functions made Qiu Shui and others amazed.

"Sister, I heard that the dean of Yiming Academy is very strict. Will he dislike me?" Lu Mingxi was carrying a schoolbag containing the four treasures of the study. He was nervous and excited, with a hint of timidity in his eyes that could not be concealed.

Lu Ke'er pinched his little face and said with a smile: "Our Xiao Xi is so smart and cute, who wouldn't like him?"
