Rebirth is not a dream.
Chapter 107 The Emperor's Reward
Although Su Yue's condition did not worsen, she still failed to go to watch the dragon boat race on the Dragon Boat Festival. Due to long-term medication, Su Yue's face had become like black medicine. However, as time went on, her body gradually improved, and she developed a resistance to the bitter medicine. Surprisingly, after stopping the medication, Su Yue's recovery speed seemed to be faster than when she was taking the medicine. She couldn't help but start to wonder if there was a problem with the medicine. Originally, Su Yue planned to let Chen Xiang investigate the matter, but she was worried that she was too suspicious. After thinking for a while, she decided to give up the idea. After all, she no longer planned to continue taking the medicine. In the past two days, she fed all the medicine to the potted plants in the house. After observing the two saplings for a while, no obvious changes were found. Maybe I really worry too much.
The emperor had planned to meet his niece Su Yue on the Dragon Boat Festival. Unfortunately, Su Yue was bedridden and in poor health, so she could not come to see him. Nevertheless, the emperor thought that he could not remain silent about Su Yue's generous donation of her dowry to support the court. After all, such a good deed not only benefits the country and the people, but also shows her noble character and patriotism. Therefore, the emperor decided to respond to show his appreciation and encouragement to Su Yue.
A few days later, the emperor's rewards were delivered to the marquis's residence, along with an oral instruction asking Su Yue to take good care of her health and not to rush to the palace to express her gratitude.
The items bestowed by the emperor were numerous and piled up, each of which demonstrated the dignity and generosity of the royal family. The shop donated by Su Yue was miraculously returned to her hands, but at the same time, several of her manors in the capital were taken back by the emperor. However, the emperor did not let Su Yue suffer a loss, but instead gave her a royal manor of equal value as compensation. As for the exquisite jades, gorgeous jewelry and a large amount of cash that originally belonged to Princess Ming Zhao, they were all kept by the emperor.
Although Su Yue donated nearly 70% of her dowry this time, most of it was actually shops and farms in the capital, as well as some precious antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and jade jewelry. Interestingly, the emperor was quite thoughtful about Su Yue's financial management. He did not accept Su Yue's shop in the capital, but only took the silver in the shop, and then replaced all the farms with imperial farms. In this way, everything Su Yue donated almost returned to her in another form, just slightly changed.
Su Yue held the list in her hand and stared at it for a long time, her heart full of doubts and confusion. She really couldn't understand what the emperor's magical operation meant. This seemingly contradictory action made her fall into deep thought, and it was difficult for her to guess the emperor's true intentions for a while.
Su Yue was asking Bijun to lead the servants of Yunxiao Court to count the rewards one by one and put them into the warehouse. At this time, the second wife came here. She looked at the dazzling array of treasures in the yard with great envy in her eyes and said, "My third niece, you are so lucky! Look at the rewards given by the emperor, they are so generous!"
Hearing this, Su Yue smiled slightly and responded: "The emperor is naturally a man of extraordinary temperament and generosity! How could he covet the little benefits of a little girl like me? This reward is nothing more than seeing that I lent a helping hand when the country was in trouble, and once the difficulties were overcome, he gave me a reward. After all, the royal family has always been so generous and open-minded!"
Second Madam: "Yes, Third Niece's wife is really good at speaking!" Su Yue smiled slightly and said calmly: "I heard that the Marquis did a good job this time, and even Second Uncle Bian benefited a lot. Could it be that Second Uncle has returned to the Ministry of Revenue as a Yuanwailang now?"
The Second Lady was secretly unhappy when she heard Su Yue's words. She knew very well that Su Yue's words were clearly implying that their Second House was relying on the influence of the First House. However, even though she was extremely reluctant, the Second Lady still forced herself to cheer up and responded with a hypocritical smile on her face: "We are a family, so of course we should support and help each other!"
At this moment, since the emperor's reward had been delivered, even the empress dowager specially sent a generous reward. And the ladies in the palace would not sit idly by. Whether it was the queen or the concubine, even those concubines with higher positions, all sent generous gifts to Su Yue. After all, now everyone knows that Su Yue is the daughter of Princess Ming Zhao. Although the emperor has not officially recognized her, his attitude is obvious. In this deep palace inner garden, changing one's position according to the situation has always been the rule of survival. So, in a short period of time, the front of An Ning Hou Mansion became very lively, and visitors came in an endless stream, which can be said to be crowded with people.
Su Yue has also received invitations or posts from various mansions one after another, but she has been keeping a low profile recently and has politely declined all invitations on the grounds that she has not fully recovered. At this moment, the people of Kyoto are all focused on Su Yue, wondering which banquet she will choose to attend? Everyone is curious. After all, Su Yue has a special status, and her appearance will definitely attract attention and discussion from all parties. Some people think that she may choose a family gathering with whom she is closely related; others speculate that she may prefer to participate in some grand and solemn occasions to show her status and style. However, the real answer is only known to Su Yue herself. Maybe she is quietly observing the situation and waiting for the most appropriate time to make a decision. Or maybe she has no intention of getting involved in these social occasions at all, and would rather concentrate on recuperating her body and stay away from the hustle and bustle. In any case, everyone is looking forward to Su Yue's actions, because every choice she makes may affect the changes in Kyoto.
