Chapter 407: Ordinary Qin Jianan
Qin Feng saw Xing Sheng moving things and asked, "Black Charcoal, where did all these things come from?"
"Son-in-law, these were sent by the people you treated last night.
We have asked them not to send any more, but they didn't listen. There are still many piled up outside the Qin Mansion." Black Charcoal looked helpless, but he admired Son-in-law in his heart.
When the head of the Liu family led the Shenhou Army to fight against the demons and saved a city, the people in the city also sent things to the Shenhou Army to express their gratitude.
I didn't expect that Son-in-law was so loved by the people of Fengtian City at such a young age.
"Son-in-law, if so many things are properly preserved, our Qin Mansion may not need to buy food for half a year." Black Charcoal joked.
Qin Feng heard this and looked at the gifts on the ground with a gratified smile: "Yes."
The people know who is good to the people.
Although Qin Feng was moved, he did not delay here for long. After all, Eunuch Li had been waiting for him for a long time in the lobby of the Qin Mansion.
As soon as he entered the hall, he saw Eunuch Li sitting there, blowing the steaming tea, and chatting with his unreliable father from time to time.
Second Mother saw Qin Feng and quickly winked.
Qin Feng stepped forward and apologized, "I'm a little late. Please forgive me for neglecting Eunuch Li."
Seeing this, Eunuch Li put down his teacup and smiled, "It's okay. Last night you treated the people in the city and went to the palace to treat Princess Anya. You were exhausted and it's normal to sleep a little longer."
It was unexpected that Qin Feng was so polite.
He thought that Eunuch Li had been staying with Emperor Ming all year round, so he must be difficult to get along with.
"What is the reason for Eunuch Li to look for me?" Qin Feng asked curiously.
"Of course, I am following the order of His Majesty to call you into the palace and give you rewards. If there is nothing else, you can go with me." Eunuch Li stood up.
"Okay." Qin Feng agreed immediately.
But when he left, Eunuch Li deliberately looked at Qin Jianan carefully.
His Majesty's words last night that a tiger father will have no dog son, he still remembers it in his heart.
However, after spending some time with him in the lobby, Eunuch Li's only feeling was that this person was ordinary except for his appearance.
As the chief steward of the palace, he served the Emperor Ming all the year round. What kind of people has he not seen?
High officials who have been in high positions for many years, generals who are invincible, and the mysterious and powerful Baiguidao and Shenwu warriors.
Even if those people don't say a word, he can see that the other party is unusual.
This is the ability to judge people that he has been practicing all the time!
But this Qin Jianan
His words are not sharp, his momentum is ordinary, and there is no sense of oppression that makes people feel like a thorn in the back.
He is just an ordinary person, how can he be worthy of the word tiger father?
Eunuch Li shook his head, didn't think about it anymore, and left the lobby directly.
After Eunuch Li left, Er Niang said with a strange look: "Master, why did Eunuch Li keep looking at you? I always feel that he has some bad intentions."
"Don't talk nonsense, Eunuch Li is the chief steward of the palace. Even if you are a third-rank official, you have to be respectful when you see him." Qin Laodi reminded.
"But I just think his eyes are weird. I have heard that eunuchs have unusual psychology. Master, he might have taken a fancy to you." Er Niang looked worried.
"Puff!" Qin Laodi just took a sip of tea and spit it all out.
When Qin Feng arrived at the palace, the morning court had ended. He followed Eunuch Li to the imperial study room last night.
The Ming Emperor, wearing a dragon robe, flipped through the memorial in his hand, and the anger between his eyebrows had not disappeared.
Fengtian City has been stable for too long. A group of scoundrels can actually kidnap the prisoners on the seventh floor of the Nine-Layer Prison on the night of the New Year's Day.
The civil and military officials in the court are good at nothing except shirking responsibility!
How could the Emperor not be angry?
Eunuch Li, who was good at observing people's words and expressions, saw this and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, Qin Feng, the eldest son of the Qin family, has been brought here."
The Emperor put down the memorial in his hand: "Let him in."
Although it was only one night, for Qin Feng, this was the second time he had been to the palace in the true sense.
It is said that the emperor is moody. Even though he had seen it once, Qin Feng was still a little nervous.
The Emperor looked at the reserved boy in black, and for some reason, the anger between his eyebrows was reduced a little.
"You don't have to be so nervous. I summoned you here not to punish you, but to reward you.
There are countless ancient and modern treasures in the palace treasury. Wait, let Eunuch Li take you there, and you can choose any item to take away."
Is there such a good thing? Qin Feng widened his eyes, and his surprise was beyond words.
In this world, if you want to know which place has the most treasures, apart from the dragon clan, the Daqian Imperial Palace Treasury is definitely the first!
After all, this treasury has been established since the founding of the Daqian Dynasty, and the treasures inside can be said to be varied and have everything.
In the Four Domains Demon Slaying Division, most of the treasures that can be exchanged for military merits are also objects eliminated from the Imperial Palace Treasury, which is enough to show!
Qin Feng said excitedly: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The Emperor Ming hummed, and then spoke again: "You are talented and proficient in craftsmanship. You invented gunpowder and promoted the prestige of my Daqian.
I appreciate your talent and want to summon you to the Ministry of Works as a doctor in the Ministry of Works to manage and build all the affairs. What do you think?"
Qin Feng's face froze when he heard this. Langzhong of the Ministry of Works, a fifth-rank official!
For a commoner to directly take up such an official position, it was undoubtedly a piece of cake falling from the sky, which was enough to show the emperor's respect.
But he didn't want to do it!
The court officials were different from the demon slayers. The former had to punch in and out on time, far less free than the latter.
Besides, the various officials in the court were scheming against each other, and they had to prevent being caught by others. It would be so tiring to accidentally destroy their families.
Moreover, he had to improve his cultivation as a Taoist priest, and he had to go to the Poor Academy to teach people. Where did he have the time?
When Eunuch Li saw that Qin Feng was hesitant to answer, he whispered: "Qin Feng, His Majesty is asking you!"
Qin Feng immediately came back to his senses, considered the wording, and then began to speak with emotion.
He first thanked His Majesty for his kindness, and then explained that he was still young, inexperienced, and limited in ability. Even if he wanted to take up this official position, he was still a little short of the fire.
In short, the implication is - it can't be done.
After hearing these words, Emperor Ming looked at Qin Feng meaningfully.
Just this one look made Qin Feng's adrenaline surge and cold sweat flow.
"Did I say something wrong?"
Seeing this, Eunuch Li on the side felt a pang in his heart and felt that he was going to be in trouble.
But then he heard Emperor Ming say: "What you said does make some sense, well, let's not talk about the matter of the Minister of Works for now.
Eunuch Li, take him to the palace treasury."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
