The Emperor was kissed by the Regent and cried again

"So sure?" Gou Yuanqin looked at Shen Jingli again. This man must be no simple man since he could make that wily old man, Lao Qian, guarantee it with his life.

Qian Mangui said firmly: "Yes."

"Then forget about the background check. As long as the content is legal, we will issue the approval document on the same day it is reviewed and approved."

"Wow, Lord Gou, you're so handsome. Hahaha."

Lord Gou picked up the wine glass and was about to clink glasses with Shen Jingli. Shen Jingli was happy and also took a small drink of wine.

Then she secretly vomited it out when the two men weren't paying attention. She had important things to do later and was afraid that drinking would cause trouble.

"Cough cough cough." Qian Mangui pretended to cough a few times in dissatisfaction. He was the one who worked hard. Did the little emperor understand who made the greatest contribution?

"Brother Qian is handsome too. I'll toast you a glass. Let me drink first."

I originally thought that the review would take another ten days or half a month, but I didn’t expect it to go so smoothly. It was a pleasant surprise.

Shen Jingli drank alone with the empty wine glass, while Qian Mangui drank it all happily.

"This is so true."

Shen Jingli whispered in Qian Mangui's ear: "It's still early, why don't we go to the Dali Temple now?"

Shen Jingli felt that her luck was good today and things went smoothly. She thought of getting everything done at once.

Qian Mangui was in high spirits and naturally didn't want to leave Sulangyuan. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "It's too rushed. Let's go another day when we have time. The lonely and cold Lady Hua is still waiting for Qian."

"What...are you doing...at the Dali Temple?" Lord Gou was a little drunk. After he finished speaking, he lay down on the table and began to snore.

Shen Jingli: "It's only noon now, how cold can it be?"

Qian Mangui leaned back and said calmly, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

Shen Jingli was naturally anxious. As long as the village chief didn't come out, the deer spirit flower would be one step closer to withering.

"It must be urgent. We must rescue the village chief within seven days. No, now there are only six days. Time waits for no one."

Qian Mangui remained calm and said, "There are still six days left. No rush. I have some important things to do now."

"What could possibly happen in the middle of the day?"

Qian Mangui smiled brightly, "Apart from that matter, what else could it be?"

"You...? Didn't you sprain your ankle? This shouldn't be possible."

Qian Mangui immediately straightened his posture and glanced at Shen Jingli, "It's just a minor injury. Qian is very good at it. How can you be so amateur? You are probably not proficient in the art of the boudoir, right?"

Shen Jingli frowned slightly: "Why should I be proficient in this?!"

Qian Mangui smiled secretly, "That's right...it's enough if your man is proficient in it."

Shen Jingli's face quickly turned red. "I... No, he... Oh! Forget it, Brother Qian, just accompany me to the Dali Temple. Lu Linghua must not be in any danger."

Shen Jingli was too lazy to explain. Anyway, ever since she stayed overnight in Longxiao Palace that night, her innocence was gone!

Qian Mangui said perfunctorily: "I know, I know, I'll go again in two days."

Go in two days? No, no...

Qian Mangui always refuses to go to the Dali Temple. This won’t work...

Shen Jingli's eyes flashed, and he smiled slyly, "Brother Qian, you must go today, otherwise I will tell Qin Yejue that you bullied me..."

Since Qian Mangui thinks Qin Yejue is her man, she should make good use of this relationship.

Qian Mangui was shocked: "What!? When did Qian bully you? Don't talk nonsense!"

If Shen Jingli really went to Qin Yejue to whisper in his ear, then wouldn't he be dead without a burial place?

Seeing that Qian Mangui was temporarily frightened, Shen Jingli continued to intensify his threats: "I don't care. If you don't accompany me, I will go and complain. Once I cry, he will do whatever I want..."

Qian Mangui had no choice but to compromise: "Okay, okay, go, go, let's make it clear in advance, don't regret it when you go."

Shen Jingli hurriedly urged, "I will definitely not regret it! Let's go, let's go..."

Qian Mangui stretched and groaned, but still had no intention of getting up.

"Let's eat first, and then I'll go with you. Qian will ask Hua Niang to prepare the food. Ask her to go to the farm in the suburbs and catch some live chickens and ducks. Then we'll slaughter and stew them right away."

Go to the suburbs to catch them? It would take a lot of time to go back and forth.

Shen Jingli interrupted quickly: "No, this is too much trouble, I'll treat you to a big meal, let's go."

Qian Mangui finally agreed to go to the Dali Temple with him, and Shen Jingli was afraid that he would change his mind later.

Qian Mangui smiled helplessly and stood up. Just as the two were about to open the door, Lord Gou suddenly sat up straight: "Call Xia Hua..."

This guy... is he an old whore?

Are you so impatient in the middle of the day?

……

When the two of them walked out of the gate of Sulangyuan, Shen Jingli was attracted by a group of fragrant curly-haired beauties. They all had waist-length hair, dressed in light blue clothes, and wore a long, intricate and delicate bead necklace around their necks. They walked barefoot on the ground, and wore silver bells on their ankles that rang with every step.

This outfit is very unique and charming, and you can tell at first glance that she is not a local woman.

"They are so beautiful. Why don't they wear shoes? Won't it hurt their feet?" Shen Jingli looked at their backs for a long time.

Seeing Shen Jingli's inexperienced look, Qian Mangui's eyes twitched, "Sometimes, Qian is really curious..."

"what?"

"Where on earth did you come from, this bumpkin?"

"..."

Shen Jingli silently withdrew his gaze. She was a newcomer, so could this be blamed on her?

Qian Mangui walked with his hands behind his back and explained, "They are from Xuerui Country. They should be dancers. Have you heard of the idiom 'fragrant jade feet'?"

The country bumpkin Shen Jingli shook his head honestly.

Qian Mangui: "Brother Shen, read more books when you have nothing to do. If conditions permit, travel abroad and learn more about the cultural atmosphere of foreign countries. After all, you are the nominal ruler of a country."

If you go abroad...

It would cost a lot of money for travel expenses, accommodation, food, drinks and entertainment... her financial situation would not allow it for the time being!

Shen Jingli spread his hands: "With my current standard of living, if I want to go abroad, I can only go to heaven."

Qian Mangui tried hard to suppress his smile, "Qian is speechless, Brother Shen, you are quite good at talking."

As expected, sincerity is the ultimate weapon, and he couldn't refute it at all.

"So, not wearing shoes is a custom in Xuerui Country?"

Qian Mangui slowed down his pace and said, "The feet of women from Xuerui Country have been soaked in various spices since childhood. Over time, they can smell the fragrance with every step. Women from Xuerui Country are famous for their jade feet. Many people spend a fortune just to marry a beauty."

Shen Jingli asked curiously, "But the bare feet can't stand the friction on the ground. Won't they get calluses after a long time?"

"They have a fragrant honey patch handed down from their ancestors, which not only prevents injuries from walking barefoot, but also leaves a scent with every step."

Shen Jingli suddenly realized, "Oh... In other words, the fragrance is not coming from the feet, but from the scented honey patch?"

Qian Mangui was already accustomed to these deliberate gimmicks.

"There should be some fragrance on your feet, after all, you have been soaking them since you were a child, but it is very slight, not as exaggerated and magical as the rumors say."

After Shen Jingli pondered for a moment, he said, "Hmm... with the fragrance, the beauty becomes even more unique and special."
