Pan Jinlian was very efficient. In less than two hours, the red sedan chair, the sedan carriers, the wedding band, the preparations for the banquet, the invitations for the guests, and everything for the wedding were ready.
If it was an ordinary family, they wouldn't need to be so grand to marry a concubine.
However, the bride was the beloved daughter of the Minister of Revenue, and the groom was Eunuch Huang's sworn brother. He was also a fourth-rank official of the imperial court, so the wind of flattery swept through the entire capital.
Ximen Qiao's intention was to use this opportunity to rope in more officials.
Sure enough, after the invitation was sent out, the officialdom in the capital was in a stir. Even Emperor Zhao Ji wanted to join in the fun after hearing about it. Due to his identity and tradition, he could not lower himself to attend, so he gave up.
Tong Guan and Gao Qiu weren't in Tokyo, so they didn't come to congratulate him. Almost all of the other court officials were present. In an instant, Ximen Qiao's residence had become a small throne room. Those who came were all officials of Rank Four and above. Those below Rank Four only sent gifts and no one else came because there were no more seats.
The banquet was lively until almost midnight. Pan Jinlian's appearance almost overshadowed the bride's limelight, and the officials 'envy of Ximen Qiao was beyond words.
Chang Liying, on the other hand, was quite generous. Pan Jinlian had been with her from the moment she entered the house, taking care of her meticulously. She told her about the possible feelings and necessary techniques of the first night, which made Chang Liying blush.
It was late at night, and the guests had all left. Ximen Qiao had drunk quite a bit, and after entering the room, he picked her up, lifted the red veil, and took off her bridal gown.
Chang Liying showed a temporary discomfort, but she quickly calmed down after Pan Jinlian taught her the method.
When she saw that Ximen Qiao's features were a few times bigger, she still showed a fearful expression, but she quickly went up to him.
She crossed her legs around Ximen Qiao's waist and wrapped her arms around his neck.
The moment Ximen Qiao reached the highest point, he wanted to pull himself away, but Chang Liying didn't agree. She wrapped her arms tightly around Ximen Qiao's neck and complained,"
"Sir, just stay there, please…"
Seeing Chang Liying's affectionate gaze, Ximen Qiao no longer played hard to get. He raised his tempo to the maximum and roared.
The bride followed the groom to the Elysian World.
Ximen Qiao could feel an immense amount of internal energy coming from the other party's body, constantly replenishing himself. This unprecedented feeling immediately filled his entire body with energy.
The bride woke up from the joy and looked at her husband who had already started to tidy up his clothes. The sensible her immediately held Ximen Qiao's hand that was pulling up his pants.
Then, she buried her head under Ximen Qiao and used her tongue to carefully clean the door. This was what Pan Jinlian had taught her.
Ximen Qiao fell asleep, and the system appeared in his dream again.
Ding!
"Congratulations to host for obtaining Chang Liying. Your Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms has reached the highest realm after combining with her. Her Pure Yin Constitution is compatible with host's Pure Yang Constitution. This time, the System Points increased by 200,000.”
"My salt was snatched by those people from Liangshan. Tell me if you have any good ideas.”In the dream, Ximen Qiao's mind did not rest. Instead, it became clearer.
" Temporarily give up on taking back the salt. Focus on tax collection and anti-corruption. Complete the mission and gain 1 million points.”
Ximen Qiao was about to ask the system again when the system disappeared.
When he woke up the next day, Ximen Qiao was clear about the conversation with the system. Two million loads of salt and the life of the Head of Escorts, Sun Shangwu, he would remember it for now. He swore in his heart that he would definitely take revenge.
"Shuxiang, do you know how to write memorials?”Ximen Qiao saw that Shu Xiang had already entered the room and was about to serve him.
"Grand officer, this servant will do it, but it depends on what grand officer wants to report.”
"There's nothing much. I just talked to that old man Zhao Ji about the benefits of tax increases and anti-corruption. I don't know if he would like to hear it.”
"Why do you have to do such a thankless thing?”
Ximen Qiao knew that the reason why this book was named Shuxiang was because she was the only daughter of a great scholar. She knew how to play chess, zither, painting, and calligraphy since she was young. Her father was an official who was ostracized by Tong Guan and was in trouble. When Pan Jinlian went out to buy a maid, she accidentally met her and was about to be banished into the army, so she spent a lot of money to buy her.
"I don't want to do this either, but if I don't do this, the entire government's finances will collapse.”
"I thought you had strong feelings for your country. Hehe.”Shu Xiang smiled brightly.
"Yes, yes, but no matter what feelings you have now, we have to fill the national treasury.”
"Please wait a moment, Your Excellency. This servant will go and get the Xuan paper. Your Excellency only needs to describe the general meaning, and this servant will record it.”
Ximen Qiao began to talk about the plan he had long thought of. He saw Shu Xiang writing with such beautiful calligraphy, smooth writing, and excellent writing. He immediately felt that this woman was indeed a top scholar, without a doubt!
