Chapter 351: Giving Gifts.
Fortunately, the national teacher was willing to accept his things.
It shows that there is still room for improvement.
It seems that a century-old ginseng alone is not enough, something else needs to be added.
Otherwise the portion is not enough.
Qi Pan withdrew his gaze, turned and left.
Some ministers deliberately slowed down their pace when they saw Yu Pengnian approaching Qi Pan.
I also heard their conversation clearly.
Many ministers felt that Yu Pengnian deserved it.
Who made him offend the imperial master?
The national teacher has made so many contributions to the Qin Dynasty, not to mention improving weapons and equipment.
It is also about improving the land and increasing food production.
They also took seeds of cassava, corn, rice and other grains.
There are also medical books, gunpowder, and grenades.
Even if you pick any one of them out, they are enough to make Your Majesty value them.
Not to mention, these were all taken out by the national master alone.
All the ministers in the court, combined, are not as important as the imperial preceptor.
Yu Pengnian is also stupid. He actually blames His Majesty and provokes the Imperial Master just because of someone who dared to disrespect the Imperial Master.
Live it!
Your Majesty was extremely lenient towards him by not skinning him alive on the spot!
The national teacher is also kind-hearted.
He actually let Yu Pengnian go just because of a hundred-year-old ginseng.
If it were someone else, he might have been killed secretly.
After Yu Pengnian returned home, he quickly opened the warehouse.
Take out the century-old ginseng stored in the warehouse.
Worried that it was not enough, he also prepared another 500 taels of silver.
Let someone send it to Qi Pan together.
Palace entrance.
The steward in Yu Pengnian's mansion was holding a box in his hand.
The servant following behind him was carrying a large box.
The manager spoke respectfully to the soldiers guarding the palace gate.
"Sir, this is a gift of apology from my master Yu Pengnian to the Imperial Master."
"Please help convey this, sir."
The manager stuffed a money bag into the soldier's hand.
The soldiers and generals did not refuse.
He squeezed his purse, then looked at the manager and the big box at the back.
The soldier said, "Open this box and the trunk for us to check."
"Hey, good!"
The manager quickly opened the box in his hand.
He then ordered his servant to open the box.
Several soldiers stepped forward and took turns to check.
After confirming that there was no problem, the general spoke.
"Okay, we'll help you deliver the things to the Imperial Master."
"But... whether or not the Imperial Master will accept the throne is not something we can decide."
The soldier waved his hand and several people carried the box in.
The manager quickly handed over the box in his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay."
"As long as the official helps deliver it, it will be fine."
"I am waiting for news here. Whether the Imperial Master accepts it or not, I have done my job."
"Even if I don't do it well, my parents won't blame me when I go back."
"Excuse me, sir."
The soldier nodded.
The manager looked at the soldiers, who were carrying the boxes and chests as they walked away.
After he could no longer be seen, he retreated to the side with his attendants.
Wait quietly.
Pray for the bedroom.
Qi Pan was sitting at his desk, practicing calligraphy.
The palace servant Xiao Fugui, who was in charge, came in to report.
"Master, there are several soldiers outside holding a box and a large chest."
"It is said that it is a gift of apology from Master Yu Pengnian to the Imperial Master."
"Should we let them in?"
Qi Pan said without even looking up, "Let them bring it in."
"promise."
Xiao Fugui responded and walked out.
After a while, he came in with several soldiers.
One of the soldiers handed over a box with both hands.
"National Division."
Xiao Fugui stepped forward and took the box from the soldier.
Sent to Qi Pan.
Xiao Fugui had already checked at the door of the bedroom just now.
Only after confirming that there were no problems with the boxes did we let them in.
Qi Pan put down his pen and took the box.
Opened it and took a look.
It is indeed a ginseng root.
As for how old it was, Qi Pan really couldn’t tell.
She doesn't know anything about ginseng.
She closed the box and looked at a box on the ground.
He asked with some confusion, "What's in this box?"
Yu Pengnian didn’t say anything else.
Xiao Fugui said, "Return to the Imperial Master, I have seen it."
"There is silver in this box, a total of five hundred taels."
Oh?
Five hundred taels?
Qi Pan raised an eyebrow: "Take it."
The goods were delivered and the soldiers retreated.
Qi Pan said to Xiao Fugui, "Take this century-old ginseng and show it to Dean Xia."
"Give the silver to my brother."
Brother Zheng is short of money and food.
Five hundred taels of silver can be used to build the Great Wall and will last for a while.
"promise."
Xiao Fugui responded.
He took the box from Qi Pan and asked someone to come in and carry the big box away.
...........
Too hospital.
"Master Xia, this is what the Imperial Master asked me to bring."
"Please have a look, Dean Xia."
Xiao Fugui handed the box to Xia Wuqie.
Oh?
Did the Imperial Master ask you to bring it here?
Let him see it?
Xia Wuqi took the box and opened it.
Huh?
Or a ginseng root.
After looking carefully, Xia Wuqie said.
"This ginseng is of good quality. It looks to be about 120 years old."
"The Imperial Master is weak, so cut a piece of it once every two months and soak it in water to drink."
"Eating too much will make you weak and unable to be replenished."
"it is good."
Xiao Fugui said, "I will remember what Dean Xia said."
"I will report this to the Imperial Master when I get back."
Xiao Fugui took the box back from Xia Wuqie.
After Xiao Fugui left, Xia Wuqi thought of Qi Pan’s foot injury.
Heart way.
He will have to go and see the national teacher later.
Let’s see how the national teacher’s foot injury is recovering.
He heard that the Imperial Master had left the palace again today.
This foot injury hasn't healed yet.
Don't make it worse.
.........
This is Ying Zheng's side.
Xiao Fugui brought his men and carried the box in front of Ying Zheng.
Xiao Fugui said, "Your Majesty."
"This is what the Imperial Master asked me to deliver."
Oh?
Did the Imperial Master ask for it to be sent over?
Ying Zheng looked up and asked, "What is it?"
"Return to Your Majesty."
Xiao Fugui: "It's five hundred taels of silver."
Ok?
Five hundred taels of silver? ?
Where did the national teacher get the silver?
But don't give all her private savings to him.
Ying Zheng frowned slightly and asked, "Does the Imperial Master have enough money?"
"Enough."
Xiao Fugui said, "This is what the Imperial Master ordered me to give to Your Majesty."
"These five hundred taels are given to the Imperial Master by Master Yu Pengnian."
"A hundred-year-old ginseng was also sent along."
"I have already shown it to Dean Xia."
I heard that the money I prayed for was enough.
Ying Zheng felt slightly relieved.
When he heard that this was a gift from Yu Pengnian to Qi Pan, Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly again.
Whenever the Imperial Master had some money, he would always think of him and send it to him.
Ying Zheng asked, "What did Dean Xia say?"
Xiao Fugui said, "Return to Your Majesty."
"Master Xia said that the ginseng is of good quality. We can cut one or two slices every month or two and give them to the Imperial Master to soak in water for drinking."
"The Imperial Master is physically weak. If he eats too much, he may not be able to take the supplements."
"it is good."
Ying Zheng said.
