Chapter 275 Du Wan's Simple Request
Chapter 275 Du Wan’s Simple Request
Two little kids who don't know anything are now going to see the emperor.
Du Qian asked his sister, "Sister, uncle, we are going to meet Wu Qian. We didn't do anything to achieve success. Do you think we will be scolded?"
"I don't know, you do." Du Wan said confidently, "You are the one who my uncle has entrusted with important tasks, not me."
Du Qian looked at her resentfully, "Don't sister love my elder brother anymore?"
"Does it hurt if you are scolded for you?" Du Wan's little eyes were very obvious. It would be better if she didn't hurt like this.
Du Qian hugged her shoulders, rubbed her head desperately, rubbing her hair into a mess. Du Wan was so angry that she gritted her teeth and chased Du Qian and beat him.
The brother and sister came to the imperial study while fighting.
Du Qian did not ask the eunuch to report, so he called a palace maid first and wanted to wash Du Wan.
As a result, Du Wan did not agree, "What are you going to wash up? Do the work first, and then go home and lie down after you finish it."
"Aren't you afraid of being punished for being punished for losing your manners in front of the palace?"
"Well?"
Next, Du Wan followed the palace maid to wash up.
When she came out, Du Qian also washed up, his robes were neat and meticulous.
Both of them went to see the emperor.
The emperor had known that they had come, so he ran to wash up to see him. Finally, he waited for the two of them to come. I wonder if it was an illusion, but he always felt that the two of them had lost a little weight, "You really want me to wait."
"Hehe, I want to blame my elder brother. I have to say that I cannot lose my manners in front of the palace. I have to let me clean up before I come to see my uncle." Du Wan's mouth sneered and complained, "Uncle, you may not know. On the way here, my elder brother was worried that he would be scolded if he didn't complete the task. I said I couldn't scold me, so he was so angry that he turned my head into a chicken coop..."
Du Qian stood aside with a smile on his face with an indulgent look, completely looking like a good brother.
The emperor listened to her carefully, and the little girl was quite stubborn, but it was just something that made people listen to.
At the end of hearing, the emperor laughed out loud.
Du Qian took the opportunity to hand over the sorted booklet to the emperor.
After talking about the situation, Du Qian added: "There are only these three people left. Not to mention the other two, Wu Qian seems to have not taken the bait now. Sooner or later his family will have actions. Then the emperor wants to knock on it... and ask for money."
Almost said "black testimony"!
Fortunately, the emperor didn't care about this little detail.
Du Wan now understood that the emperor would solve the big fish Wu Qian.
Wu Qian thought he was smart, but he was actually the stupidest.
By then, the emperor will come to solve the problem in person. Not only will Wu Qian hand over his private property, but his family may also be plundered. What Du Wan and Du Qian did before were already set up for the emperor, and they were waiting for the next drama.
Du Wan asked in confusion: "How do you know that the Wu family will definitely protect Wu Qian?"
"Silly sister, the Wu family has gained a lot of benefits over the years by relying on Wu Qian. Wu Qian must have their handle." Du Qian answered her questions.
Du Wan nodded, "We have retired successfully, and the rest will be left to our uncle."
So the two brothers and sisters looked at the emperor in unison.
In the eyes of the emperor, it was like two big dogs, waiting for him to give him some benefits.
How could the emperor not understand what they mean?
Although they did not directly deal with Wu Qian, the current situation is a little better than they directly deal with, and they should indeed be rewarded.
The emperor asked, "What do you want?"
"Brother, come first." Du Wan touched Du Qian with her elbow.
Du Qian thought about it and said, "Uncle, I want to build a city wall in my fiefdom."
"Either mountains or wasteland, there are not even many villages, what should I do to build a city wall?" The emperor either refused to agree or puzzled his decision. Building a city wall would definitely cost a lot of money, it was costly and thankless.
Is there too much money, can I burn it?
Du Qian's face showed confusion at the right time, "I don't know, I just want to circle it. Anyway, the place is not big, so I'll just build it slowly. As for the village inside, it's not Du's. I want to move them all out. If you don't want to move away, you can stay and work for me."
The emperor was a little speechless.
Ning Cheng didn't even want this kid, and he insisted on Du Jiajie.
Not to mention the small fiefdom, 90% of it is mountains and wasteland, and there are more than a dozen villages in taxes. It only costs one or two thousand taels a year, and the emperor didn't care at all. This time, the silver that Du Qian and his sister supplemented for the treasury was enough for hundreds of years of tax revenue.
The emperor was generous, "Okay. The fief belongs to you in the future and all taxes will be exempted."
"Thank you for your grace," Du Qian quickly thanked him.
Du Wan blinked, "Do you want to issue an imperial edict?"
"This must be something." Du Qian immediately responded. Without an imperial edict, it would not be considered formal.
The emperor smiled and ordered someone to write an order.
Then it was Du Wan's turn, and both of them were waiting for her to say what she wanted.
Du Wan said with a bright smile: "My request is very simple. Except for the emperor's uncle, I don't have to kneel down to salute anyone when I see anyone in the future. Hehe, I will also issue an imperial edict, more formally, and officially recognized by the official, it is best for everyone in the capital to know."
The emperor was very surprised. This requirement was indeed very simple, just one sentence for him.
Du Qian raised his finger and poked her head, "Silly sister, you are the princess. The only one who can make you kneel down is the emperor's uncle. If you say this request, it means you didn't say it."
Du Wan: “…”
A look of confusion?!
Is that true?
The emperor laughed.
That's true. Even if Du Wan meets the queen, she only needs to pay a blessing.
Du Wan looked at the emperor resentfully, "Uncle, I want to change my request."
"Let me tell me." The emperor did not agree at once.
"I want to be in Daqin. Except for my uncle, I don't have to salute anyone when I see him." Du Wan was very persistent and a little willful.
The emperor agreed immediately.
He did not involve himself, and there was no reason not to agree.
So the emperor ordered someone to draw an imperial edict.
When the brother and sister left the imperial study room and walked away a little further.
Du Qian asked in a low voice: "Sister, why did you make this request? There is no substantial benefit."
"Prevent problems before they happen." Du Wan said perfunctorily.
Then, she asked back: "How did you make such a request from brother?"
Du Qian glanced at her and said in her tone, "Prevent problems before they happen."
Du Wan: “…”
Are you no longer the dear girl?
The two left the palace and prepared a carriage outside and escorted guards.
After getting into the carriage, the two of them discussed the fiefdom again.
Du Qian said that he would use Huang Lian’s money to repair the wall.
He had the final say in the fiefdom in the future, which was equivalent to the back garden.
Du Wan was a little envious, "Brother, why don't I go and talk to my uncle and change my fiefdom? By the way, the land in Wangyue Tower is good."
