My Lord, my wife said she doesn't have time to talk to you.

The emperor, who was sitting on the main seat, showed a gentle smile to Prime Minister Shen below: "Lord Shen has taught his son well, and the son of the Shen family is very talented in writing. Come on, give Shen Anning a set of jade brocade four treasures of the study to show her talent!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar, and everyone cast envious glances at Shen An Ning.

You should know that the jade brocade four treasures of the study are not ordinary items. They are all carefully carved from top-grade jade, and each one is priceless and extremely precious.

To receive this honor is something that can only be encountered by chance.

Prime Minister Shen, carrying Huaying, kowtowed in thanks, and then Huaying followed her father back to her seat and sat down.

Amid the emperor's concern for his ministers and his exhortations to the younger generation, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet slowly came to an end.

Following the eunuch's shout of "The Emperor, please move to the Qianqing Palace," the ministers present knelt down respectfully and sent the Emperor off.

The emperor slowly stood up and left the back garden.

When he was halfway there, he whispered to the eunuch beside him, "Go and ask Lord Shen to come to the study."

After receiving the order, the eunuch immediately turned around and went back to the back garden to look for the Left Prime Minister.

At this time, Lord Shen was standing at the palace gate and bidding farewell to General Su.

However, at this moment, the father-in-law ran over panting and interrupted their conversation.

The eunuch came to Lord Shen and said respectfully, "Lord Shen, please stay! The emperor invites you."

When Lord Shen heard this, he was slightly startled, then nodded, said goodbye to General Sumu, turned around and told his wife to leave first and he would go back later. Then he followed his father-in-law back to the Qianqing Palace.

Huaying was sitting quietly in the carriage. When she heard her father's voice outside the carriage, she felt worried.

When the mother got on the carriage, she saw a worried look on Huaying's face.

He comforted her in a gentle voice, "Ning'er, don't worry about your father. The emperor often keeps his subjects to discuss state affairs. We will go back first and send someone back to pick up your father later."

Hearing her mother say this, Huaying nodded gently, feeling a little relieved...

At the same time, on the carriage of Prince Rui's Palace, Zi Jin lifted the curtain and fixed his eyes on a carriage that was slowly moving forward not far away, with a barely perceptible hint of disdain and ridicule in his eyes.

Huaying returned to Molan Pavilion. Qinghe held a tray of gifts and whispered to her, "Miss, should we put the four treasures of the study given by the emperor into the warehouse?"

Huaying walked to the desk, sat down, raised her eyes and said in a gentle voice, "Last time I saw that big brother's inkstone had cracks. Tomorrow you can send this set to big brother's courtyard."

Qinghe agreed and turned to leave, preparing hot water for the young lady to wash.

Seeing Qinghe walking away, Huaying could no longer suppress her excitement and curiosity and took out the letter from her sleeve.

This letter was sent by Dongxue. She opened the envelope with great anticipation. When she saw the familiar handwriting on the letter, she couldn't help but smile.

I knew that this girl asked Fu Shiyan to write it. Fu Shiyan's handwriting was vigorous and powerful yet elegant, and every stroke revealed a sense of calmness and confidence.

Huaying stroked the letter paper from Taohua Town, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.

Huaying's eyes fell on the letter and she began to read it carefully.

The letter was filled with Dongxue's thoughts and care for her, as well as her worries about her return home. Gazing at those plain words, Huaying deeply felt Dongxue's deep affection for her, and for some reason, tears gradually blurred her eyes...

Then, Fu Shiyan told her in the letter about the business situation of Zui Jiang Yue, and the income was quite good.

However, when Huaying saw the end of the letter, she couldn't help but feel a little confused and annoyed.

He praised Zijin for some of the suggestions she made to Zui Jiangyue, but she clearly remembered that when she made the same suggestion, Fu Shiyan rejected it without hesitation. Why did Fu Shiyan accept it so readily when she made it?

What disappointed her even more was that in the letter, Fu Shiyan did not ask about her physical condition after falling into the water, nor did he ask about her current life. He did not even mention that he had asked her to go to the stone bridge on the Qixi Festival. He did not even mention what gift he was going to give her...

Hua Ying stood up and walked silently to the corridor, gazing at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, as if thinking about something. The annoyance in her heart became more and more intense, and she secretly sighed, "Fu Shiyan is indeed a pure businessman!"

Thinking of Dongxue, the innocent little girl, a faint smile appeared on Huaying's face again, and her mood calmed down a little.

He turned back to his desk, picked up paper and pen, and began to write a reply to Dongxue seriously.
