Chapter 107: A visitor from the palace, Li Ziyan is promoted
After continuous traveling, they finally returned to Lucheng. Zhao Junning had fallen asleep due to exhaustion from the long journey. Li Ziyan carefully carried Zhao Junning off the carriage.
He walked back to the mansion, went back to the house and gently placed Zhao Junning on the bed, then walked out the door, "Mo Yu will arrange for the servants to deliver the purchased grain to the grain shop. You will watch them unload and put them in the grain shop and pay them." Mo Yu bowed and said, "Yes."
The next day, Zhao Junning, who had a good sleep, slowly opened her eyes, sat up, put on her clothes and cloak, and walked towards the desk. She saw Li Ziyan lying on the desk with documents in his hands, and walked towards him quietly.
Crouching beside Li Ziyan, staring at him quietly, there was a knock on the door suddenly. Zhao Junning got up to open the door. When she opened the door, she saw Zhou Aoyang asking anxiously, "Where's Li Ziyan?"
Zhao Junning said, "What's wrong with him still resting?"
Zhou Aoyang became even more anxious: "Still sleeping, someone is coming from the palace."
Li Ziyan opened his eyes when he heard the voice and looked up to see the light behind the door. He walked closer to the door and asked, "Jun Ning, Zhou Aoyang?"
Zhou Aoyang saw Li Ziyan and said, "You're awake, hurry to the government office." Li Ziyan frowned and said, "Go to the government office. What's the big deal this morning?"
"Someone from the Pingliang Palace has come. It should be to promote you." After hearing this, Li Ziyan and Zhao Junning looked at each other and went to the yamen. When Li Ziyan and Zhao Junning arrived at the yamen, they saw a eunuch holding an imperial edict standing next to Xiao Xuantang. Seeing Li Ziyan and Zhao Junning coming, he stood up and walked forward. Li Ziyan bowed and saluted, and Xiao Xuantang then signaled the eunuch.
The eunuch stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty has ordered that Li Aiqing has made great contributions in defending the city. Quickly summon Li Aiqing and his family to the Pingliang Palace to receive a title and reward."
After hearing this, Li Ziyan said, "I accept your order." He stood up and looked at Zhao Junning, "Junning, I'm going to be promoted."
Zhao Junning also nodded happily for Li Ziyan. Xiao Xuantang walked over to the two of them and said, "It's been a year since we last met, and you two seem to be even more affectionate than the last time we met."
Zhao Junning bowed and said, "It's been a long time since we last met, Your Highness Qin." Xiao Xuantang nodded in response, then looked behind them. Zhao Junning frowned and said, "Your Highness Qin is looking for someone?"
Xu Wenhe said, "Look for Xinghui, she is in the martial arts field." After hearing this, Xiao Xuantang bowed to Zhao Junning and Li Ziyan and went to look for Yuan Xinghui.
The eunuchs also went there. Zhao Junning and Li Ziyan were stunned. Xu Wenhe explained to them, "The King of Qin is pursuing Xing Hui." They both had the same expression as they heard the big gossip.
At night, "Did you know that they would come to you today and order you to go to Pingliang?" Zhao Junning asked. Li Ziyan nodded: "Yes, some people in Pingliang can't wait."
At this time, Zhao Junning was thinking in her heart: If I think about it this way, I will have to face Lu Wu more often. I don’t know if the dream in my previous life will come true again. I won’t die, right? I don’t know if Lu Wu and Zhuo Yuange will regard Zi Yan as a threat again this time.
Li Ziyan saw Zhao Junning in a daze: "Junning, wife?"
Zhao Junning came back to her senses: "What's wrong?" Li Ziyan asked with a smile: "Nothing, what's wrong with you? Are you so happy that you don't know what to say because I got promoted?" Zhao Junning was amused: "Yes, yes, my husband is amazing. He has been promoted. I have to be even more amazing so that you won't despise me one day."
After hearing this, Li Ziyan said hurriedly, "Pah, pah, what are you talking about? Just wait. Your husband, I will do what I say and stand on my own feet so that you can live a better life and work hard for myself. You don't have to worry about me despising you. You are yourself. I am afraid that one day you will become rich enough to rival a country and despise me for being poor."
Zhao Junning nodded and said, "Since Lord Li has said so, when do we set off?"
Li Ziyan held Zhao Junning's hand and said, "If it's early, then the day after tomorrow. Tomorrow you must arrange the management of the store and also think about the store in Pingliang. I also need to arrange the position of county magistrate as soon as possible."
"Boss, don't worry. We will make sure that Taoyao and Junzi Restaurant are known to everyone in Liangzhou." Song Pan said, and Zhao Junning nodded with relief.
