Ye Xiaotian was at the Ministry of Rites for three days, carefully studying the etiquette and the respectful words he used when he met the emperor. In fact, it was not practiced all day. He only had one and a half hours of study every day, and the rest of the time was freely controlled.

Therefore, Ye Xiaotian has done a lot of things in these three days. It is essential to visit relatives and friends, visit neighbors, and to spend money everywhere. This is probably a habit of Chinese people. If they live in a foreign land for many years, most people who return to their hometown do this.

They may really have little to do, or they may just be slapping the swollen face and pretending to be fat, but they all have the idea of ​​"returning home in glory" and do not want their relatives and friends to look down on them. Ye Xiaotian is indeed trembling, so he will naturally not be stingy in this regard, so Ye Xiaotian becomes a boy with money!

It is actually not easy to study in the Ministry of Rites, because what the Ministry of Rites needs to teach him is not only the etiquette of facing the king, because at the end of the year, the emperor will have a great banquet for the ministers, a newly promoted local chieftain like Ye Xiaotian, and his subordinates are from the mountains and have the political significance of "receiving", so it is inevitable to attend the state banquet.

Therefore, whenever you accept the imperial edict, attend a state banquet, and meet other important officials of the court, what etiquette should be, how to talk, and how to call each other, and you will be taught carefully. Thanks to Ye Xiaotian's mind is flexible and he understands it very quickly.

After three days, Ye Xiaotian thought about managing his connections in the capital. Director Tao intended to get close to him, and the two became very close friends.

Yan Shiwei has not come to the Ye family these two days, and it was useless when he came. As long as Ye Xiaotian was at home, he would take a lot of bags to visit relatives and friends. During this period, he also went to worship the ancestral tombs with his father and brother, so he did not have the time to entertain him.

On the third day, Yan Shiwei finally came. Ye Xiaoan hurriedly recommended to Ye Xiaotian: "Second brother, this is the eldest brother's friend. Yan Shiwei, Brother Yan, is in the capital and has always taken care of Wei's brother!"

Ye Xiaotian glanced at Yan Shiwei and bowed, "Brother Yan, where is it so tall?"

Ye Xiaoan said hesitantly: "Ah! Brother Yan... Brother Yan is a businessman. But the business is very big!"

Ye Xiaoan also knew that his brothers are now high-ranking officials, and merchants are a low-ranking business. Although big merchants are rich enough to compete with the country, they can long go in and out of the palaces of princes and princes to treat them as guests of honor, and their true social status is not limited by the hierarchy set by Taizu. However, Yan Shiwei obviously has not reached that level, and he is afraid that when his second brother hears that he is a businessman, it will embarrass Yan Shiwei, so he is hesitant.

Ye Xiaotian naturally understood his brother's intentions. When he saw his appearance, he knew what he was worried about. There was no need to laugh secretly: "It seems that my elder brother really treats Mr. Yan as an excellent friend, otherwise he wouldn't have worried that I would give him the courage to see."

Of course, Ye Xiaotian would not make his elder brother embarrassed, so he politely said to Yan Shiwei: "Thank you, Brother Yan, for taking care of his brother!"

Yan Shiwei had heard Ye Xiaoan tell him about his brother's identity. At this time, Yan Shiwei pretended to be a merchant and said to Ye Xiaotian with fear and fear: "Master Promotionist... No, no, Master Chief, you have a serious word. You have a serious word, Xiaoan and I... no! I have a similar temperament to the master of the mansion, no, no. Thanks to the master of the mansion... "

Yan Shiwei not only pretended to be like a figure, but spoke incoherently, but also sweated all over his forehead. Ye Xiaotian couldn't help but smile: "Don't panic, you are poor and humble, and you will meet. You are a big merchant. My brother is just a prisoner in the Tianzhuo, and he has been beating you up. But I didn't see you dislike you. Now my Ye family is lucky enough to develop. How can I despise my old friends?"

Yan Shiwei smiled all over his face and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, sir, what are you talking about."

Ye Xiaotian said: "I will come to the palace to see you soon. Now I can't enter the palace and I'm very rude. When I come back from the palace, I will hold a banquet to entertain Brother Yan!"

Yan Shiwei waved his hands repeatedly: "Oh! I don't dare to be it! I don't dare to be it! You are busy, you are busy!"

Ye Xiaotian said to his parents, and then said hello to Yan Shiwei politely before leaving. The carriage and horses were waiting in front of the door. Ye Xiaotian got on the bus and headed to the palace.

Ye Xiaoan waited for his brother to leave, pulled Yan Shiwei into the yard, and complained in a low voice: "My brother is going to meet you today. Didn't I tell you that I will come tomorrow? How can I introduce you to you in such a hurry?"

Yan Shiwei rubbed his hands and said with a sneer: "Didn't I hear that your brother has become a high-ranking official and is worried that he will make the wrong day? Three days later, it will be the third day, and I really can't make sure. It's okay, I'll come back tomorrow. By the way, there's nothing wrong anyway, why don't we go out for a walk now?"

Ye Xiaoan thought of the girl Hatsune and the girl Yuchen who had not yet met and heard that she was also famous for her. She immediately felt itchy and said, "Okay, let's go out for a walk!"

He knew that his wife had no good face to Brother Yan, so he didn't greet his family, so he pulled Yan Shiwei out. Yan Shiwei secretly glanced at him and said, "Although I heard you say it, I can't believe it when I see your second brother, who looks exactly like you, is such a big official."

Ye Xiaoan smiled and said, "If I don't talk about you, I'm the same. I'm afraid every morning when I wake up."

Yan Shiweiqi said: "What are you afraid of?"

Ye Xiaoan said: "I am afraid that my second brother will come back and become the chieftain. It's a dream!"

Yan Shiwei also smiled: "How is it possible? Your Ye family is really developed now! We will rely more on you, brother in the future!"

Ye Xiaoan said: "It's OK, it's OK. I was just a little prisoner at the beginning. Brother Yan never disliked me. Now that our Ye family is well developed, I will never forget Brother Yan. Don't worry, you have to go to Tongren to do business. If you have my second brother taking care of you, you will definitely stand firm!"

Yan Shiwei even claimed thanks and pretended to be joking: "It doesn't matter if your second brother refuses to help me, but you will be good with a virtuous brother. Anyway, this chieftain in your family is exactly the same as you. When you really need to ask your second brother for help, as long as you change into his clothes and accompany me, who can recognize him?"

When Ye Xiaoan was in the Heavenly Prison, one time, the superiors sent a criminal. Because he was too anxious to catch him, he had not taken off his robe when he was sent, so he changed his prison uniform and sent him to the cell. Before handing over the official uniform, the prison guards took turns wearing the official uniform and had sex. At this time, he heard what Yan Shiwei said interestingly, and he couldn't help but try it.

Yan Shiwei pointed it out until he did not say in depth that the future is long and now is not the time. Many seeds must be buried one by one, and then wait for them to sprout one by one...

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Ye Xiaotian was not panicked when he went to the palace. He knew very well that an empire was composed of various forces and relations in a mixed manner. Any problem with any link would cause a series of problems. As the supreme ruler, he would have to worry about it.

Therefore, his return trip will definitely be able to return with a full load. Although the emperor did not see the Golden Palace openly receive it, it means that he still had the meaning of investigation, but the probability of passing the investigation is at least 70%.

Moreover, when he returned to Beijing this time, he deliberately pretended to be a nouveau riche, showing off his face and looking vulgar. If he were a senior official of the court, not only would the emperor dislike him, but the censors would have handed in the impeachment memorial like snowflakes.

However, because he was a local official and a chieftain, the entire court was collectively silent. Because such chieftains were the qualified chieftains in the minds of the emperor and ministers, a chieftain who could inherit and govern the people under his jurisdiction like the emperor. If he was honest, polite, knowledgeable, and wise, it was definitely not what the emperor and ministers like him were happy to see.

Therefore, his vulgar performance added points to the emperor and the members of the cabinet. Now he is at least 80% sure to get the imperial seal. However, despite this, when he rushed to the palace city and saw the majestic and spectacular palace complex, as if it were the palace in the sky, Ye Xiaotian couldn't help but be beating faster and his breathing became rapid.

He grew up in the capital since he was a child, but this was the first time he saw what the imperial palace looked like. Ye Xiaotian got out of the car and went forward. There was a very large square where cars and horses were no longer allowed to move around.

He looked back and saw that the carts behind him had stopped, and there were gifts he gave to the emperor: Persia, exquisite glassware for food, deer antler musk, beef, yellow dog treasure, spices from the Western Regions, Qinghai mastiffs, etc.

Ye Xiaotian tidied up his clothes, turned his head to look at Li Qiuchi, and saw that Li Qiuchi was even worse than him. He stood there and his face turned red, and his eyes were straightened when he looked at the magnificent palace complex.

Seeing the high palace that was as tall as heavenly court, which had been stained with ears and eyes since childhood, suddenly appeared in front of me, the pressure accumulated in my heart for a long time cannot be easily eliminated. Perhaps the ministers who entered the palace every day had long been used to seeing the palace and had no feelings for it, but who would not be shocked when they saw him for the first time?

Ye Xiaotian took a long breath and gently patted Li Qiuchi's shoulder. After Li Qiuchi gradually recovered from calmness, he took the lead and walked forward...

The gift was accepted by the eunuchs, and Li Qiuchi and his guards were blocked outside the palace gate. Only Ye Xiaotian was led into the palace by a small eunuch. There were many palaces and gates. Ye Xiaotian was already walking so weak that he saw the little eunuch stopping in front of a palace.

This is the imperial study room, where the emperor reviews memorials on a daily basis. Ye Xiaotian waited here for an hour, and his heels hurt. Ye Xiaotian changed the center of gravity of his left and right feet from time to time to relieve physical discomfort. He glanced at the eunuch who was leading the way and the guards at the door, but saw them standing respectfully, as if they were carved in stone. For an entire hour, they didn't move.

When Ye Xiaotian saw this, he couldn't help but sigh that all kinds of skills were learned. Being a slave in the palace requires skills that people could not do.

Finally, after waiting for another quarter of an hour, a large eunuch finally came out from the inside, swept down the steps, raised the whisk, and said loudly: "Xuan, Ye Xiaotian, the promoter of Tongren Mansion, saw him!"

Ye Xiaotian was immediately excited and had already worshipped twenty-four times. Whether he could earn a fortune for his descendants depends on the last tremor! Wanli, I'll do it!
