However, before Liu Meiren could finish her words, Zhao Ji interrupted her with a decisive look:

"Is there no merit in the body?"

"Isn't this normal?"

"My dearest concubine, you are neither a general fighting on the battlefield nor a prime minister strategizing a decisive battle thousands of miles away."

"Even if you want to make great contributions to the Song Dynasty, you don't have that way?"

"Besides, how can you, as concubines, judge your contribution to our Song Dynasty by that standard?"

"From the perspective of an official like me, as long as you concubines can make me happy all day long, happy every night, and in a good mood."

"In this way, you concubines will be considered to have made a great contribution."

"As for the above, my dear concubine, what can't you do?"

"Because of this, even if I directly promote you to Zhaoyi of the third rank, there will be no problem."

"But considering the competition for favor in the harem, it does exist."

"As an official, it is not convenient for me to significantly improve my concubine's rank during this period."

"Why don't you just do what I said just now? The level will not change, but I will give you a large courtyard to live alone."

"And with six maids serving on the left and right."

At this moment, although Liu Meiren still had a tangled look on her face, she was extremely sweet in her heart.

Looking at Zhao Ji's rather heroic face, my heart has long been filled with infatuation.

At this moment, although I wanted to talk again, I finally couldn't open my mouth to refuse Zhao Ji's kindness.

After Zhao Ji took Liu Meiren out of the courtyard, he came to Gen Yue under the guidance of Eunuch Sheng.

Gen Yue is a classical royal garden that the old boy Zhao Ji spent several years and countless manpower, material and financial resources to build.

It was first named Longevity Mountain, and was renamed to the current Genyue Mountain.

In his previous life, Zhao Ji already knew the name of Gen Yue when he read Water Margin.

I have been yearning for the description of this for a long time.

At this moment, since Zhao Ji had this opportunity to visit it in person, how could he not be excited?

Moreover, he had heard at the beginning that in this Genyue, when it rained, after the raindrops fell on the rockery, white mist would rise and fill the sky.

At that time, if you hold an umbrella and visit it, you will feel like you have fallen into a fairyland.

It's like a dream, extremely elegant.

Although it's not summer right now, it's not raining heavily.

But the architectural style and countless rare treasures inside can still make Zhao Ji yearn for it.

Although Liu Meiren had already known about the grandeur and beauty of the newly built Gen Mountain.

However, due to issues such as identity, I have never been qualified to visit, let alone have fun.

But at this moment, with my own man having the honor to be here, let alone the excitement in my heart.

Along the way, her big, jewel-like eyes were filled with surprise wherever she looked.

Zhao Ji, who was filled with beauty, looked at the surrounding scenery and it seemed to be more colorful, and he felt happy in his heart.

It's a pity that it's winter now, and almost everywhere is covered in snow.

The trees, flowers and grass are no longer green.

The rockery and flowing water are also lifeless.

If not, the beauty of the scenery here will definitely be much higher than it is now.

That Liu Meiren was a woman after all, and her body was a bit weaker than Zhao Ji's.

After traveling for only half an hour, I felt a little tired.

When Zhao Ji saw the tired look on the face of the beautiful woman next to him, he thought about it and wanted to go to the pavilion in front to take a rest.

By the way, let’s chat with him again.

But at this moment, an official appeared on the side of the pavilion.

The man was about 30 years old, with a medium to thin build.

Although he was wearing official uniform, he was a bit slovenly.

On the sleeves and trouser legs, I don’t know whether it was stained or rubbed somewhere.

It turned out to be green and red.

As for the official's face, the originally fair complexion was now turned gray.

And next to this official.

On the left side, there are more than ten stones of different shapes placed.

In the row on the right, there are more than a dozen different paints.

Holding a purple clay pot in his hand, he would pour saliva into his mouth from time to time.

Zhao Ji frowned, then slowly turned his head and asked in a very soft voice next to Liu Meiren's ear:

"My dear concubine, do you recognize this person?"

Liu Meiren's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly. After looking at the man for a long time, she shook her head helplessly:

"I don't recognize him. I guess this official must not have frequent contacts with the official family."

"Otherwise, I won't have any impression at all."

Just as Zhao Ji and Zhao Ji were communicating quietly, Eunuch Sheng, who was standing next to Zhao Ji, immediately took a few steps forward and shouted:

"Shang Shu Shen!"

"The official's inspection is here, why don't you come and see the driver soon?"

After hearing this, Shangshu Shen shook one hand and almost threw the purple clay pot in his hand.

When he suddenly turned around, he saw Zhao Ji who was about ten steps away.

With so much anxiety in my heart, I couldn't care about anything else.

After putting down the purple clay pot in his hand, he hurried towards Zhao Ji and the others:

"Shen Kuo, Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, has met with officials."

After saying that, he knelt down in front of Zhao Ji and bowed down.

And when Shen Kuo slowly raised his head, he saw Liu Meiren standing next to Zhao Ji.

The expression on his face couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Because in his opinion, any concubine who can accompany officials to enjoy the garden must be at least a concubine of Zhaoyi rank or above.

And in front of me, this person wearing a pale pink floral gown, with gold flowers in her hair and jewelry, is clearly a beautiful girl.

How can I salute you?

But after all, he has been an official for many years. Although he has been engaged in Ministry of Work affairs, he is also quite diplomatic.

As soon as he rolled his eyes, he bowed his head to Liu Meiren:

"The humble minister pays homage to the little master. I wish the little master good fortune and long-lasting blessings."

After receiving this great gift, Liu Meiren looked a little surprised.

As his heart trembled, he wanted to reach out to help Shen Kuo, who was kneeling in front of him.

But the moment he stretched out his hands, he stopped again.

Because it wasn't until this moment that she remembered that as a woman from an official family, it was really inappropriate for her to do this.

Therefore, he could only accept this gift abruptly.

When Zhao Ji said goodbye to Shen Kuo and looked at him again.

A thought suddenly popped into my mind.

Shen Kuo, Shen Kuo?

This name seems so familiar!

Moreover, this person is still the Minister of the Ministry of Industry.

He must be quite famous in history.

But why can’t I remember exactly what I did?
