Su Jinyun had noticed Qin Qianluo's actions long ago. She neatly ended her conversation with the Minister of the Imperial Secretariat and smiled as she looked at Qin Qianluo walking towards her. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Qin also noticed his youngest daughter carrying something and walking towards Su Jinyun, and looked over curiously.

Qin Qianlu walked up to Su Jinyun, handed her the book and tea, and said with a smile, "Sister Su, these are the tea and pork jerky recipes I promised you yesterday. This book is about animal husbandry, and I'm giving it to you as well. Pigs need to be castrated to get rid of their fishy smell. It's recorded in this book. There are also other methods for raising poultry."

Su Jinyun smiled as she accepted the books and tea, and patted Qin Qianluo's head: "Thank you, Qianluo."

Qin Qianluo's cheeks flushed slightly. She shook her head, said a few words, and walked away, getting into her own carriage to wait for Prime Minister Qin to go home together. Seeing Qin Qianluo get into the carriage, Prime Minister Qin hurried over to Su Jinyun. Looking at the tea leaves and book in her hand, and having overheard the conversation, he said jealously, "My Luo'er hasn't given me any tea yet, but you beat me to it. Quickly, share a jar with me."

Upon hearing this, Su Jinyun quickly hid the tea canister behind her back, looking at Qin Shouzhen with wary eyes: "Prime Minister Qin, are you perhaps trying to steal someone else's treasure?"

Qin Xiang was so angry he jumped up and down: "That was the tea my daughter brought out."

Su Xiang's tone was gentle, but it was infuriating: "This was a gift from Qianluo."

The two prime ministers of the court were arguing endlessly over a can of tea, which was unbearable for everyone to watch. They were also curious about what kind of tea it was and how delicious it must be to cause such a dispute between the two prime ministers. The vice minister of the Ministry of Revenue was more concerned about the complete guide to animal husbandry, but since the minister of the Ministry of Revenue was not present, he could only watch longingly, not daring to ask the prime minister for it. He silently noted it down, waiting for his minister to return so that he could ask the prime minister for it.

Qin Qianlu waited and waited, but Qin Xiang didn't get on the carriage. She opened the curtain and peeked out. She quickly saw her father talking to Su Xiang. After listening carefully, she heard that he was asking for tea. Helpless, she called out, "Father, I still have some. I saved some for you."

Hearing his youngest daughter's words, Qin Xiang raised his eyebrows at Su Jinyun with a smug look and said very proudly, "Did you hear that? My daughter saved some for me, and Su Xiang only has two cans. I can ask my daughter for some whenever I want to drink it."

After saying that, he walked smugly towards his carriage. Hearing this, Qin Qianluo smiled apologetically at Su Jinyun, thinking that her father was childish, and quickly shrank back. Su Jinyun looked at Qin Xiang's smug look and gritted her teeth inwardly: "Old bastard, just because Qianluo is your daughter, huh."

Everyone looked at the smug Prime Minister Qin with secret resentment, but they were helpless. After all, Little Prime Minister Qin was his daughter, and they couldn't do anything about it even if they were envious.

Ignoring everyone's thoughts, Prime Minister Qin happily boarded the carriage. The carriage arrived home smoothly, and Qin Qianluo returned to her courtyard. She quickly retrieved several kinds of tea from her spatial storage and had her maid deliver them to her father. She then went into her spatial storage to resume her training as usual. Unbeknownst to Qin Qianluo, after receiving the tea, Prime Minister Qin began to gloat and sent a message to Prime Minister Su, infuriating Prime Minister Su. The Emperor also learned of this and listened with amusement to the eunuch's report, becoming curious about the tea that Qin Qianluo had brought out.

After finishing her training, Qin Qianluo left the space and sat on the soft couch reading a book. Suddenly, 001 spoke up, "Luo Bao, I can level up again. This time it will probably take about a day."

Qin Qianlu raised an eyebrow. "This time it's taken so long? Why does this leveling up seem so irregular?"

001 was also puzzled by the sudden upgrade. 'Perhaps there's another trigger. I'll check the upgrade mechanism after I've finished upgrading.'

Qin Qianluo didn't hesitate for long. After thinking for a moment, she asked, "If you level up, can I still enter the space?"

"You can drop treasures here; upgrading won't stop you from entering and exiting at any time."

Qin Qianluo nodded, and 001 went to upgrade. What Yirenyitong didn't know was that because Qin Qianluo's medical prescription and cement formula saved many people and prevented a greater flood, she had accumulated a lot of merit, which triggered the upgrade.

After arriving in Jiangnan with supplies, the Minister of Revenue intensified his efforts, using the imperial envoy's power to act first and report later to swiftly arrest several corrupt officials. Simultaneously, he carried out water conservancy repairs, distributed grain, and provided medical treatment to the people. This not only improved efficiency but also served as a warning to local officials and reassured the people.

When the Emperor received the message from the Minister of Revenue, he was overjoyed. He thought to himself that it was time to promote that girl. She had done so much, yet she had only been a low-ranking official of the eighth grade, which was really unfair. Although she had done many things secretly, her contributions should not be ignored.

The next morning at court, the emperor took his seat and then had Eunuch Liu read out the prepared imperial edict. Eunuch Liu stepped forward with a smile and said loudly, "Qin Qianluo, come forward to receive the edict."

Standing at the back, Qin Qianluo was taken aback upon hearing this. An official beside her gently nudged her, and Qin Qianluo reacted, stepping forward to kneel and receive the imperial decree. Seeing that Qin Qianluo was kneeling properly, Eunuch Liu unfolded the imperial edict and read aloud: "By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: Qin Qianluo, the Imperial Attendant, is exceptionally talented and has made outstanding contributions, serving as a model for all. I am greatly pleased, therefore I hereby appoint Qin Qianluo as a Fifth-Rank Attendant, and grant her permission to seek instruction from Right Chancellor Su. This is the imperial decree."

"Your Majesty, I accept the decree. Thank you! Long live the Emperor!" Qin Qianluo accepted the imperial edict and was about to return to her original position when an official nearby pulled her back. She then remembered that she should stand next to Su Jinyun. She smiled amicably at the official and stood a step behind Su Jinyun, thinking to herself: I've been promoted, from the eighth rank to the fifth rank, a six-level promotion. I didn't do anything special. Apart from personally giving her the medical book and the complete guide to animal husbandry, wasn't everything else just secretly passed notes to my father? Qin Qianluo couldn't figure it out, so she simply stopped thinking about it.

Upon hearing of his daughter's promotion, Prime Minister Qin hadn't even had time to feel happy before he was told that she would be standing beside Su Jinyun from now on. He looked at the Emperor with a resentful gaze. Su Jinyun, on the other hand, was delighted; this meant Qianluo was now practically a teacher, and that old scoundrel Qin Shouzhen must be furious. The Emperor avoided Prime Minister Qin's gaze, touched his nose, and vehemently denied that he had added that remark simply for the sake of watching the spectacle.

Although everyone was envious, they also knew that this was what Lord Qin deserved. After all, with Lord Qin's achievements, he could have been made a prince of a different surname. It was just that the emperor had to hide the fact that he could hear people's thoughts, so some things could not be imposed on Lord Qin.

After the investiture, the Emperor and everyone else were eager to hear Qin Qianluo's thoughts, but they found her unusually quiet today, offering no words of advice. Everyone was puzzled. Why was Lady Qin so quiet today? No one expected it; 001 had gone to level up, so naturally, her thoughts couldn't be heard.

The morning court session ended quickly. After the session, Qin Qianluo returned home, gave the imperial edict to her mother, and went back to her own courtyard to begin her regular training. She didn't feel much about the promotion. To put it nicely, being a censor meant overseeing the work of the ministers of the six ministries, but to put it bluntly, it was still a sinecure. She was still just a figurehead, only her position during court sessions had changed.

Prime Minister Qin was not in a good mood. His own daughter was standing next to Prime Minister Su instead of him, which made him very uncomfortable. When they saw Prime Minister Su's smug smile while they were discussing matters in the Imperial Study, he felt even more uncomfortable.

Unaware of her father's feelings, Qin Qianluo quietly continued reading her unfinished book after finishing her studies. Just as she was about to rest after dinner, she heard 001's cheerful voice, "Luo Bao, Luo Bao, I've leveled up!"

Qin Qianluo was delighted to hear this and asked, "Are there any new features?"

"Now we can keep animals in this space, and we can even bring people in! There's also a spiritual spring inside. Drinking the spring water can increase your physical limits and cure all diseases and poisons! Luo Bao, we're rich! We actually upgraded and got a spiritual spring!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Qianluo entered her spatial dimension with a thought. She was delighted to see the spiritual spring within, filled a cup, and tasted it. "It's sweet, and drinking it feels like it relieves my fatigue. It's wonderful!"

001 blushed slightly, then added, "Luo Bao loves reading, so I moved the library here. It's in the new villa over there; it has almost every book from ancient times to the present. Luo Bao can go and have a look."

Qin Qianluo's eyes lit up. She quickly walked to the newly appeared two-story villa, pushed open the door, and went inside. Seeing the bookshelves overflowing with books, even rare editions, she was overjoyed. The books in the library were unlike anything in her study. Qin Qianluo walked past each bookshelf, her heart filled with emotion, thinking, "001, it's so good to have you."

001 smiled foolishly. Seeing Qin Qianluo so happy made her happy too, and her whole body radiated a happy aura.

Qin Qianlu looked around and thought that if she had the chance, she could catch a few small animals to bring in, which would make the space much more lively. As she thought about this, she left the space and fell into a sweet sleep.

The next day, the imperial examinations officially began. Qin Qianluo watched from outside the examination hall as the candidates confidently entered, striving for their future. She cheered them on in her heart and prepared plenty of portable food and diluted spiritual spring water for her elder brother. She watched him enter the examination hall. During the days of the examination, Qin Qianluo would wait in the teahouse next to the examination hall every day after court, waiting for her elder brother to come out. During this time, she saw many candidates being carried out of the examination hall due to excessive pressure or other reasons. She couldn't help but feel sorry for them. It was a pity that after more than ten years of hard study, they couldn't persevere at the last moment. She also pondered what she could do for students all over the world to make it less difficult for those who wanted to study.

Days passed, and finally the examination hall doors opened. The candidates walked out of the examination hall, some happy and some disappointed. Qin Qianluo saw that her older brother was in pretty good condition, so she walked up to him and smiled, "Big brother, you've worked hard. Come home quickly. Mom has prepared some food for you and is waiting for you to come back."

Hearing his younger sister's voice, Qin Jiyuan quickened his pace, walked up to Qin Qianluo, and patted her head: "Thank you, Luo'er, for preparing food and water for your older brother, which keeps him in good condition."

Qin Qianlu smiled and looked up at her older brother, her eyes sparkling: "We're family, no need for thanks."

Qin Jiyuan smiled and agreed, then followed his younger sister into the carriage and returned home.
