Reward?

Zhao Feng and Qin Li looked at each other.

Qin Li was calm: "No reward for no merit."

After all, they were still newcomers and had not yet made any achievements. If they accepted this reward rashly, they did not know how much discussion they would cause. Compared to Qin Li's caution, Zhao Feng's reaction was much more direct.

He craned his neck curiously: "What reward?"

Xu Quan shook his head: "I don't know. The master gave it to the general, and asked the general to hand it over to the master himself."

Zhao Feng rubbed his beard and guessed: "Could it be gold?"

He had been working under the lord's account for a long time. Although he did not have the opportunity to get in touch with many people due to his status at the time, the lord was very generous and never deliberately avoided Zhao Feng. After going back and forth, Zhao Feng also found out some of her preferences. She loved money very much.

.

He is very generous to his subordinates on weekdays, and rewards are given from time to time, with various rewards, but traces of gold and silver are rarely seen.

The money spent during the Chinese New Year is only a few copper coins.

Looking at the weight of the wooden box, could it be a box of gold and silver?

Qin Li smiled: "How could my lord be so vulgar?"

Those in power like to express their respect and affection for their subordinates through rewards, but this does not mean that the more valuable the object, the more weight it has, but rather the thought! Gold, silver and jewelry seem too perfunctory.

Xu Quan on one side almost choked on his saliva.

If the vulgar could have the freedom to reward gold and silver, the lord would probably rush to be this vulgar. It’s hard to say for other lords, but my own lord’s reward must first exclude “gold and silver”. It’s not that she doesn’t want to, it’s really not the case.

ability.

The mind is full, but the strength is not enough.

Resisting the urge to cough, Xu Quan told Qin Li again: "My lord said that my husband will definitely like it. If you refuse to accept it, you will never be able to tell me about it."

Xu Quan said this, and Qin Li had no choice but to accept it.

Originally, he wanted to wait until Zhao Feng and Xu Quan left before opening the box, but their feet were rooted and their eyes were full of curiosity. He had no choice but to open the wooden box with a smile. When he saw the objects in the box clearly, he was stunned.

Zhao and Feng also craned their necks to come closer.

Then, both of them looked a little weird.

The wooden box contains a box full of rings.

Gold, silver, jade, gold inlaid with jade...

The band of the finished ring is men's size, and most of the rest is in raw material, but judging from the size and outline, they are all ring embryos. I don't know where the master found so many things, but...

This is not the point.

The point is that the Lord gave me a ring!

!

Qin Li closed the wooden box with a snap and adjusted his mentality.

Slightly embarrassed: "My lord rewards me with this..."

Although the second half of the sentence was not spoken, Xu Quan understood: "Sir, please don't misunderstand me, my lord definitely doesn't mean that!"

Which one means?

Naturally, he expresses his love to Qin Liming.

But this is absolutely impossible!

Xu Quan's words made Qin Li feel a little relieved.

Until Xu Quan left, Zhao Feng was still confused: "Gong Su, what do you mean by the sudden gift of so many... by the Lord?"

"Maybe it's a misunderstanding that I like it."

As smart as Qin Li, it took only a moment for Nao to understand the reason - he dressed up specially to see her that day, and wore a few rings that he liked better. The lord also stared at his fingers for a while, and it was probably at that time that there was a misunderstanding.

?

No wonder she said he must like it.

Qin Li did have the habit of wearing rings for a long time. Most of the scribes who were good at riding, shooting and swordsmanship had them. In addition to decoration, they also had auxiliary functions. However, most people only wore one or two, and Qin Li's battle that day was indeed a bit too much.

It’s conspicuous...

Qin Li explained briefly, and Zhao Feng clapped his thigh and laughed.

As a result, I was so happy that I took a picture of the wound, and my smile was distorted.

He bared his teeth and grinned for a while before suppressing the pain and said: "Since it is my lord's wish, then you can wear it and change it every three to five. Alas, if it weren't for... Gongsu's Duobao Pavilion should be filled with these beloved ones.

Things..."

After all, he was once a prince and aristocrat, and Qin Li was the heir to Zong Zheng's family. There were countless treasures in his house.

It's just that these seemingly eternal wealth, under the devastation of the war, have all turned into quicksand between the fingers. They can't hold it and can't keep it. When the country was destroyed and fled, Qin Li also brought many of his beloved things out in a hurry. As time passed,

Move on, sell off one by one.

He occasionally dreams back at midnight, dreaming about the war in his homeland, dreaming about the displacement along the way, and dreaming about Qin Li's expression when he sold off his beloved things to be pawned - not only the treasures were sold, but also the treasures

Mr. Qin who has witnessed it.

The high spirits are all blended into another deep color.

As he grew older, he treated himself more and more harshly, and used most of his family wealth to support the orphans of fallen soldiers. Seeing Qin Li living in poverty, Zhao Feng felt that something was wrong. Alas, he was still more accustomed to the gold dress back then.

Prince Qin wrapped in jade.

Qin Li glanced at Zhao Feng.

"Do you think I'm a pampered boudoir queen?"

How could he not know what the latter was thinking?

However, there was one thing he didn't understand - how did he develop this subtle mentality of dressing up his son?

Zhao Feng scratched his head when his thoughts were exposed, and said nonchalantly: "Haha - what, I have something else to do and I'll leave first."

Qin Li: "..."

When Xu Quan came back to meet Shen Tang, Shen Tang was lying on the table drawing something: "Wen Shi, are you done?"

"Reporting to my lord, the matter has been settled."

"Did Gongsu say anything? Do you like it or not?"

Naturally, Xu Quan couldn't hide the truth. While telling the truth, he also mentioned the misunderstanding. Before Shen Tang spoke, he said, "But don't worry, my lord, the general has already explained it clearly."

"Yeah, just explain clearly."

Shen Tang breathed a sigh of relief. It was also her fault that she didn't have much common sense and almost made a joke. What she needed was Qin Li's talent. She needed him to do things for her and fight for her career. If this misunderstanding caused embarrassment to both parties, that would be too much.

loss.

After saying that, she looked at the drawings and frowned.

"Can't you do something with the ring..."

The New Year's gift ring she designed has been painted.

Xu Quan got closer and caught a glimpse of the drawings on the table.

For a moment, he fell silent.

He really didn't understand the master's painting skills and aesthetics.

"Lord, what is this?" Xu Quan was on duty today, adhering to the principle of asking if you don't understand, and being a curious child.

Shen Tang picked up the work that he was most satisfied with.

"I designed this in my spare time, without taking up my working time. After finalizing it, I will give it to the craftsmen to make. I will give each of you one for the Chinese New Year this year. I saw Gong Su wearing a ring and thought it looked good, so we also made one as a corporate symbol.

"

Xu Quan: "..."

Shen Tang: "Previous New Year gifts were all silk quilts, so we can't keep doing the same thing this year, right? We collected so many trophies and didn't give anything valuable...it seems careless."

The only thing she was glad about was that these gifts were all sent to the public treasury instead of the private treasury. Now the private treasury is cleaner than her face.

Wow, this year I won’t be able to send out the copper coins that have been used to suppress evil spirits.

Shen Tang looks calm on the surface, but in fact he is bursting into tears inside.

Xu Quan chose Silence is Golden.

In view of the fact that the power of Kang Jishou's bad luck is still there, Shen Tang does not dare to wander outside now, and squats in the temporary meeting hall to handle affairs. But before noon, she was forced to move out.

After the celebration banquet last night, Yu Zi tossed and turned for a long time without sleeping. It was only at dawn that she finally made up her mind to look for Shen Tang, but she failed and asked, "...Where is the lord?"

The ruins in front of you are the temporary conference hall.

Several soldiers were handling bricks and tiles and salvaging letters.
