No one knew what Meng Bujiu said to him that day, but Shen Hechi knew it clearly.

After returning to the imperial city, Shen Hechi used his previous merits to exchange for a favor from Emperor Mingsheng.

Originally, he was going to be promoted to the second rank after returning to the imperial city, but because of this grace, the promotion was dropped.

Spring leaves quietly and summer comes.

The weather was getting hotter and hotter. When Jiang Fubao was sitting in the clinic, there was suddenly a noisy sound outside.

She didn't take it seriously at first, thinking that the bustle was caused by the opening of a shop.

Until I heard Meng Bujiu's voice.

"Miss, hurry up and go out to receive the order." Pan Erya, who had gone out to buy ice, rushed in hurriedly and shouted to Jiang Fubao.

"Receive an order? Receive what order?" Although Jiang Fubao looked confused, he still stood up and walked out.

"Doctor Jiang, kneel down and receive the imperial edict." As soon as he came out, he met the eunuch chief steward Ying Gonggong who was holding the imperial edict. He had not seen him for many years. His hair had turned gray and there were many more wrinkles on his face. He looked older. He was a kind person, and even though he was old, he still had a kind face.

"I accept your order..."

Meng Bujiu also winked at Jiang Fubao, and Jiang Fubao quickly knelt down and said.

"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims: The people are the foundation of all worldly affairs. I have heard that Dr. Jiang has opened many clinics all over the world, practicing medicine to save lives. It is said that doctors have a benevolent heart. You have saved countless people and provided medical treatment at low prices. You have great kindness in your heart. Now that Dr. Jiang is here, I am deeply gratified. I hereby issue this decree to confer Dr. Jiang as the first female official of this dynasty, and to promote her to the third rank..."

Jiang Fubao could no longer hear what was said afterwards.

No, how did she become a female official for no apparent reason?

She's a third-rank female official, the first in this dynasty. The emperor has known about her opening of a clinic for a long time. Why is he conferring the title on her now?

Jiang Fubao was completely confused.

It was not until Eunuch Ying called her twice that she stood up and took the imperial edict.

The people on the street were in an uproar.

She is the number one female official of this dynasty. How could she appear in Lianshan Town so beautifully?

Some people wanted to gossip, but when they saw that the person who was appointed as the female official was Jiang Fubao, they shut up.

The female officials were all impressed. Who hasn't suffered from illness before? They were all cured by Doctor Jiang.

After welcoming Eunuch Ying to the second floor of the clinic and listening to his detailed explanation, Jiang Fubao finally realized that she got the position of female official thanks to Shen Hechi.

For a moment, Jiang Fubao had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

However, Shen Hechi is already her sworn brother, so she gladly accepted it. She had no choice but to accept it, as there was no reason to withdraw the imperial edict.

Jiang Fubao was planning to buy more property for his sworn brother. Being an official in the imperial city required money, so when Eunuch Ying was leaving, Jiang Fubao took out a stack of silver bills and asked him to give it to Shen Hechi. Eunuch Ying also got a share, one thousand taels, and he refused to take any more.

"No problem. Just now, what the eunuch said means that my clinic will be state-owned in the future? With the emperor's protection, I only need to give 20% of the profit to the emperor every year, right?"

Jiang Fubao couldn't hide his excitement and asked Meng Bujiu.

"Yes, that's what you think. Twenty percent profit is not much. The more clinics you open, the more people will target you. Now that you have someone to protect you, no one will dare to interfere no matter how many clinics you open."

Meng Bujiu was happy for her.

As for his former rival in love doing such a big thing, it would be a lie to say that he was not jealous. However, as long as it was for Fubao's good, he was willing to be inferior to others and suffer for the sake of face. Only when Fubao was good, it was truly good.

Time flies and September 25th has arrived.

On this day, Lianshan Town was decorated with lights and colors everywhere, and the entire Qixi County was filled with joy.
