’s eyes sparkled with joy. She softly said, “Father always says that officials should be diligent and honest, that the people should take care of themselves and be self-disciplined, and that the gover...Chapter 282: Arrangements

"This servant will immediately convey the lord's meaning to Zhou Ping'an." Sanbao hurriedly replied.

Raised an eyebrow and glanced at Sibaobao. Just now, he had taken the real power from his hands and given it to Chen Tong. The way to rule subordinates is to maintain a balance. While Sibaobao did things fairly well, you also have to give him some sweetness after hitting him with a stick, otherwise, the people below would feel disheartened.

After some thought, Li Chen said, "You adopted a foster daughter outside the palace"

Samba was taken aback and hurriedly replied, "Your Highness, there is indeed a foster daughter. She just reached her twentieth birthday."

Li Chen laughed and said, “This palace was just asking casually. What do you want to tell me your age for Are you trying to get this palace to take you as a consort”

"The three treasures hastily said, 'I am lowly and insignificant, I dare not have such bold and reckless thoughts.'"

Waving his hand, Li Chen said: “Speaking of which, it’s interesting. Other eunuchs go to adopt one or several godsons to take care of them in their old age, but you, you went to find a goddaughter.”

Sānbǎo chuckled and said, "My daughter is so well-behaved and considerate. Those adopted sons of mine, none of them came for me sincerely; they all flocked to my side because of my power. They're not even as close as family, and I have to be wary of them every day. It's really pointless."

"Well, that's a rather unique way of thinking."

Li Chen casually said: "In this palace's practice government hall, there is also a lack of a maid who can serve tea and water. Send your goddaughter over here to serve me."

Sensing the good news, Sanbao was overjoyed. She immediately fell to her knees and exclaimed excitedly, "Your servant thanks Your Highness a thousand times over! A thousand years of life to Your Highness, a thousand times over!"

Sān Bǎo's excitement is understandable.

To send one's own goddaughter to be a slave to someone else just doesn't sound right.

If this happened to an ordinary person, they would probably curse.

But after all, it's just an ordinary family.

I am no one's slave, but it depends on who's asking.

The slaves of ordinary officials and wealthy landowners are naturally nothing special.

If one were the son of the First Emperor of Qin, even after leaving the imperial court and returning to his hometown, local county magistrates would come to greet him.

So even though she is the adopted daughter of Sanbao, the powerful eunuch of Dongchang, and already respected by countless people, if she could serve by Li Chen's side as a personal maid, especially serving in Xizheng Hall, wouldn't that be different That would mean being the future emperor's confidante, the heart of the future emperor of Qin. The significance is completely different.

The surprise of the three treasures is quite logical here.

Even with this incense of affection, as long as he doesn't go mad or do anything treasonous or betray Li Chen, he can expect a good end.

"No need for thanks, just get things done. Bring Xu Changqing and Guan Zhiwei here. The positions of the left and right ministers of the Ministry of War are now vacant. This palace intends to find some people to fill them. This is a nail driven into the Ministry of War, not to be moved lightly."

Besides, in two days it will be Su Pingbei's day to set out on campaign. On that day, the Imperial envoy from Xian Dynasty will accompany Su Pingbei and his retinue as they leave the capital. This palace will both host a ceremony for pledging allegiance and send them off. You should take care of this matter.

The Three Treasures respectfully replied, "I shall attend to it immediately."

Soon, Xu Changqing and Guan Zhiwei arrived together at the East Palace.

The two of them became acquainted through a fight. They later both ended up working for the Crown Prince, and as they got to know each other better, they found themselves increasingly fond of one another. Their relationship was quite good.

The two of them went to the East Palace and did not even return home for lunch. They had lunch with Li Chen together and stayed in the Xizheng Hall until dusk before returning.

During this process, seven or eight officials were summoned one after another, most of them came to be 'interviewed' by Li Chen.ome time now, and as far as I know, most of those who were usually mischievous and idle sons of wealthy families have reformed and their spirits have been completely renewed.""How can this possibly pr...
