"What made Brother Feng so angry?"
Seeing Professor Feng blowing his beard and glaring at him from afar, many people who were familiar with him walked over. One of them, a middle-aged man, looked at him and asked in confusion.
"Forget it, don't mention it again!" Professor Feng was afraid that if he continued to talk about this matter, he would become sick from his unambitious bookish attitude, so he waved his hand and said.
"Hehe, did that County Magistrate Li offend Professor Feng again?"
A slightly teasing voice sounded. When everyone turned their heads to look, they all put on a serious expression and cupped their fists, "Lord Dong."
The person who came was Magistrate Dong.
Magistrate Dong smiled and waved his hand, "Tonight, there is only Dong Wenyun, no Lord Dong."
Seeing that Magistrate Dong was so casual, everyone gradually relaxed. Finally, someone couldn't help but ask, "May I know what's going on with the County Magistrate Li that Brother Wenyun mentioned?"
Magistrate Dong laughed and said, "You have to ask Professor Feng about this."
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Professor Feng could not hide it anymore, so he told them everything from the beginning to the end.
"He actually doesn't want to be an official?"
"A chronic illness that prevents him from becoming an official? Brother Feng actually believed this kind of excuse... "
"That 'Rules for Disciples' is an excellent work. I just read it yesterday."
"I heard that the new Anxi County Magistrate was personally conferred by His Majesty. Is that true?"
"Of course it's true. But since he has contributed to education, he should be conferred the title of a scholar. Why did His Majesty confer him the title of County Magistrate?"
After listening to Professor Feng's story, everyone started to discuss. Magistrate Dong coughed and said, "His Majesty must have some deep meaning behind this. We can't make any wild guesses."
The officials who were curious about this immediately shut their mouths when they heard this.
Guessing the Emperor's intentions was a taboo for an official.
"Was that person really County Magistrate Li?"
County Magistrate Liu followed behind Magistrate Dong. The familiar figure appeared in his mind, and his heart trembled again.
It was thanks to Magistrate Dong that he had the right to come here tonight. Even so, he had to act cautiously, fearing that he would accidentally anger some important person.
However, County Magistrate Li was able to act neither servile nor overbearing in front of Professor Feng, whose rank was much higher than his. He even left in a carefree manner after the incident, as if the Wang Fu was his own home. Magistrate Liu would never believe that he was just an ordinary county magistrate …
No, it seemed that when he returned to the county government today, he had to sternly warn that unfilial son to stay in the government office for a period of time and not go out to cause trouble. He should also forget about the misunderstanding with County Lieutenant Li as soon as possible …
…
"I heard that meimei had a chronic illness a few days ago. As an elder sister, I should have come to visit, but it is not easy to leave the palace. Seeing that meimei's complexion is good, I can relax." The elegant and noble woman held Ning Wang Fei's hand and said with a smile.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern. Your concubine's body is fine now," Princess Ning said softly.
The beautiful woman patted her hand and said, "What concubine? There are no outsiders here. You and I can call each other sisters."
With that, her face showed some confusion and she said, "That's right, why didn't I see Xuan 'er today?"
Princess Ning smiled and said, "He doesn't know that sister has come. He is probably still in his room. I will send someone to call him."
As soon as she finished speaking, a figure walked in from the door.
"Father, mother!"
As soon as Li Xuan stepped into the room, he saw that other than his mother, there was another woman in the room. When he saw her appearance clearly, he was stunned for a moment, then immediately knelt on the ground. "Xuan 'er greets Your Highness!"
The elegant and beautiful woman immediately smiled and personally walked up to him. She helped him up and said, "Child, we haven't seen each other for many years, but you have become polite to me."
She looked Li Xuan up and down and nodded with satisfaction. She said, "I haven't seen you for many years. Xuan 'er has really grown up. You look so talented. Who would remember the little fellow who had a runny nose all day?"
The beautiful woman's words caused Li Xuan's face to slightly redden. When he was young, he had been sent to the palace to receive instruction with the princes and princesses. At that time, the Empress had treated him very well. Far away from the palace, in the capital, he was often bullied by the princes. When he was bullied, the Empress would always stand up for him, reprimanding and punishing the princes. In that period of time, his feelings for the Empress had even surpassed that of his birth mother.
Even now, he still remembered, those princes who bullied him, after being beaten up by Ming Zhu, still had to stand in a row and let the Empress reprimand them with a stern face … … Every time this happened, he would stand behind the Empress and secretly laugh. Although his nose and face were also swollen, his heart was very happy.
After so many years, seeing the Empress again, it was inevitable that there would be a sense of alienation. But after the other's words, the estrangement caused by time was instantly swept away.
"Just now, you wanted to present a gift to Wang Fei, right? Let the Empress see what good thing Xuan 'er has given to Wang Fei." After the beautiful woman sat back on the main seat, her eyes were still looking at Li Xuan as she asked with a smile.
Li Xuan waved his hand towards the door and a servant came in with an exquisite brocade box.
Li Xuan took the brocade box from his hand and respectfully knelt in front of Ning Wang Fei. He said, "This child wishes that Mufei's appearance will not grow old, and that you will always be young and live as long as the heavens!"
Usually, he felt closer to calling them father and mother. On such a serious occasion, even the way he addressed them became serious.
"What appearance will not grow old, forever young … where did you learn these words from?" When Ning Wang Fei heard these words, she stilled for a moment. It was the first time she had heard such birthday greetings.
But even though she was surprised, she was still somewhat happy inside. After all, as a woman, who didn't want their appearance to not grow old? Even if this was impossible, who didn't like to hear good words?
Li Xuan stood up from the ground and personally opened the brocade box to take out an exquisite porcelain bottle.
In order to avoid misunderstandings, the original Ruyi Dew porcelain bottle had naturally been changed by him. This porcelain bottle was unusually exquisite. After it was opened, a faint fragrance came out of the bottle.
"So fragrant … … what is this?"
Seeing the wang fei look at him, Li Xuan explained, "This is called perfume. It is made from the essence of flower petals … …"
He said the wondrous words that Li Yi had taught him. Not just the wang fei, even the Empress was stunned.
Women were naturally sensitive to perfume. Even if they had never heard of this thing before, they only needed to think about it to know its use.
Which woman didn't want to be the special one? No matter where she went, there would be a fresh and elegant smell. No woman would be able to refuse such a gift.
Looking at the "perfume" in Ning Wang Fei's hands, the Empress, who was sitting at the head, had a slightly envious expression. There was also a faint trace of loneliness that no one could detect.
