After putting away the letter, Wang Qian frowned and stood up. Then, he paced back and forth in the hall.
He was considering whether the method in the letter was suitable or not, and he was also weighing the pros and cons.
Wang Qian's butler and the servants of the royal court stood at the side and waited carefully, not moving at all.
After a while, Wang Qian stopped and finally said to the servants of the palace,"Go back and tell your master that I'll try this!”
"Yes, my lord. I will take my leave!"
The servants of the royal court bowed respectfully, and then the butler led them back silently through the back door of the manor.
......
It was time for duty. Duan Lun had just arrived at the Ministry of Works 'yamen, but before he could sit down and have a sip of tea, Cheng Yaojin barged in.
"Old Duan!"
Duan Lun was about to take a sip of the tea when she heard Cheng Yaojin's sudden coarse voice.
He was so frightened that he trembled. The boiling hot tea in the teacup suddenly shook and spilled out.
"Ah!"
Duan Lun couldn't help but scream.
Cheng Yaojin barged into the study and saw Duan Lun holding a towel to cover her thigh.
"Old Duan, did someone step on your tail? Why are you screaming so miserably?"
Duan Lun chose to ignore Cheng Yaojin's gloating. If it weren't for his sudden shout, would he have been scalded?
"Cheng Yaojin! Why aren't you on duty at the Golden Guards?”Duan Lun asked Cheng Yaojin.
Cheng Yaojin glanced at Duan Lun and almost guessed what was going on. Seeing that he didn't really do anything, he sat down casually.
"I'm just a little worried! That's why I came over to give you a reminder!"
"Reminder? What reminder?"
Duan Lun looked at Cheng Yaojin and asked.
Cheng Yaojin chuckled." Did you see the morning court session today? The Wang family members jumped out as if they had gone crazy. They wanted to preserve the Wang family's face and suppress Liu Xuan. Even the King of Wei, Li Tai, had come out!”
"Oh, I know, but even if it's the Wang family, His Majesty has already decided on it during the morning court session today. I guess they can't protect Zhao Weimin and Wang He, right?”
Duan Lun felt the pain in her thigh pass and sat down again.
Cheng Yaojin shook his head and said,""His Majesty has indeed made up his mind. Zhao Weimin and Wang He can't be saved anymore. However, will the Wang Clan give up so easily? Especially since Liu Xuan had provoked the Wang family previously, and now he had also messed with Zhao Wang and Wang Ling. This enmity had grown. Do you think the Wang family would let Liu Xuan rise up so peacefully?”
Duan Lun understood the meaning behind Cheng Yaojin's words.
The Wang family had probably transferred most of their hatred to Liu Xuan. Since Zhao Weimin and the other two could not protect him, the Wang family was likely to make a move on Liu Xuan!
Today, Duan Lun was going to make the waterwheel, cement, and curved shaft plow that Liu Xuan had invented. When Li Er came, Liu Xuan would definitely be promoted.
If Duan Lun and the others knew such a simple truth, how could the Wang family not?
If they wanted to continue attacking Liu Xuan, they definitely could not let Liu Xuan be promoted!
Otherwise, the Wang family's face would really be trampled on the ground.
The more Duan Lun thought about it, the more he felt that Cheng Yaojin's words made sense. His face gradually became more serious." Zhijie, if I'm not wrong, they are probably making trouble in the Ministry of Works!”
"Oh? Are you talking about Wang Qian?"
Cheng Yaojin remembered the middle-aged man who was standing behind him during the morning court session.
He looked calm and composed, but he was a member of the Wang family, and a fifth-grade left assistant minister of the Ministry of Works!
According to Duan Lun's guess, it would be easier and simpler for him to make a move!
Duan Lun also nodded." Wang Qian looks ordinary and kind, but he has a lot of tricks up his sleeve!”
Cheng Yaojin thought for a moment and said,"Why don't you leave him to me? I, Old Cheng, will help you solve it!"”
Duan Lun was stunned. He was just thinking about how he should guard against Wang Qian in the Ministry of Works, but Cheng Yaojin actually volunteered.
However, although Cheng Yaojin liked to cause trouble, he knew his limits and had a brain. He was careful in his rough words, or else he wouldn't be called Demoness Cheng.
"You really can? If it doesn't work, I'll do it. After all, I'm the Minister of Works. At most, I'll supervise the entire process!”
Cheng Yaojin waved his hand and said," Don't worry. You'll supervise the whole process. Can you still live with these things until night time?" If he, Wang Qian, really has any ideas, you might not be able to defend against it. It's better for me to do it!”
Seeing Cheng Yaojin's determination, Duan Lun hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.
"Alright, then you'd better not make too much of a commotion. Otherwise, His Majesty might be angry.”Duan Lun couldn't help but remind him.
"Alright, Old Duan, why are you acting like a girl? Don't worry!" Cheng Yaojin said.”
After saying that, Cheng Yaojin dashed out.
Duan Lun sat on the chair and thought for a long time before finally getting up and leaving the study.
......
On the other side, Longmen County!
Liu Xuan was currently painting in the study of the government office.
It had been six or seven days since Duan Luncheng and the other two left.
Liu Xuan was not anxious at all. It was very difficult for the Wang family to suppress his contribution, especially under Li Er's eyes.
Moreover, Duan Lun, Cheng Yaojin, and Fang Xuanling were also helping.
Liu Xuan was now sitting on a fishing platform.
At this moment, Shangguan Wan 'er carried a plate of desserts and gently walked in.
"Young Master, I made some osmanthus cakes. Would you like to try them?”
Liu Xuan had just finished drawing the last stroke.
The more he used the wonderful brush, the more skilled he became. Plum blossoms bloomed on the Xuan paper, and the proud plum blossoms seemed to have a fragrance.
Shangguan Wan 'er happened to walk over and saw the black plum painting that Liu Xuan had just drawn.
There was also Liu Xuan's inscription on it.
Shangguan Wan 'er's gaze was instantly attracted by the paintings and poems on the Xuan paper.
"The plum blossoms and snow fight for spring and refuse to surrender.”
"The plum beard is 30% whiter than the snow, but the snow is less fragrant than the plum.”
"Good poem, good painting!" Shangguan Wan 'er's face was filled with pleasant surprise.
Liu Xuan saw that Wan 'er was as happy as a lark, but he did not dampen her spirits.
"Wan 'er, if you like it, frame it and hang it up.”
Shangguan Wan 'er nodded repeatedly." Young Master, I'll go frame it now."”
After saying that, she ran off with Liu Xuan's calligraphy and painting.
Liu Xuan sat on the chair, picked up a piece of osmanthus cake, put it into his mouth, and took a bite.
The fragrance of flowers filled his mouth!
