In the eyes of the Civil and Military Officials, Su Qianxue was merely a timid Empress. However, today they witnessed her displaying a bold and domineering demeanor.
"Minister of War Wang," stepped forward, bowing to Su Qianxue, and said, "Your Majesty!
Calculating is a trivial skill, not worthy of great use. Therefore, our dynasty's officials are unable to solve the problems posed by Jiu Zhu! At this moment, we must rely on Your Majesty to take action personally. We, the officials, feel ashamed!"
As soon as these words were spoken, more than a dozen officials stood up in unison, echoing the sentiment and shifting all pressure and problems onto Su Qianxue. Half of the officials in the court were supporters of Langya Prince. At this moment, receiving a glance from Langya Prince, they also stood up one after another to express their agreement.
Those loyal Civil and Military Officials, who were unable to calculate, could only stand up to lend their voices, stating that such a vast nation could not rely solely on the Empress.
Su Qianxue retorted, "My dear ministers, since you place your hopes upon me! Then I shall show you my capabilities! I have both the ability and the resolve to manage the entire Great Zhou Dynasty!
This is both a challenge and an opportunity! If I can solve all the difficult problems posed by Jiu Zhu, it will demonstrate my abilities and allow me to better control the court. Those officials who originally sided with Langya Prince can also be won over."
Langya Prince observed Su Qianxue's confidence with a slight cold snort, intending to see how this Empress would tackle the challenges ahead.
After handling court affairs as usual, Su Qianxue withdrew from court. Langya Prince continued to gather numerous court officials and returned to his royal residence.
Su Qianxue then changed her attire and arrived at Jiang Han's shop.
"Jiang Han, I owe you so much! I wish to repay you first with these gifts!"
Su Qianxue personally brought treasures from the palace to find Jiang Han. Upon seeing these treasures, Jiang Han was delighted and remarked, "It's all business; you provide the items, and I will solve your problems. These treasures are my gift to you!"
But first, I must rescue myself from this predicament. If I were to offer only treasures as gifts, it would inevitably hurt my feelings a bit. This Lotus Seed Porridge, which I personally cooked, is for you—please accept it as a token of my sincerity!
Su Qianxue gently handed a food container to Jiang Han. He took it, opened it, and tasted a spoonful, commenting, "The flavor is decent, but there’s a bit too much sugar."
"Really? If you like it, I can make Lotus Seed Porridge for you every day!" Su Qianxue's gaze was fixed on Jiang Han, worried that the porridge might not taste good. This was something she had prepared herself after court.
Eating Lotus Seed Porridge every day would be fine! But perhaps we could switch to something else instead.
As for your second question's answer, here it is. Jiang Han handed a piece of silk to Su Qianxue, which had two figures on it—those were the answers to the second question. He had taken the time to return to the real world and calculated these figures with great precision.
"Thank you!"
"After this ordeal, I would like to host a banquet and invite you. Would that be alright? Could you grant me this favor?" Su Qianxue spoke to Jiang Han with a tone that was never formal; instead, it was gentle and filled with earnestness.
"A banquet? That sounds fine. Just arrange it as you see fit," Jiang Han replied thoughtfully while clasping his hands behind his back. "Make sure the dishes are on the lighter side!"
Seeing Su Qianxue's sincere demeanor reminded him of Lin Qingyue from a few years ago. He decided to tease her a bit and said, "Of course, I won't always help you every time! It all depends on your actions; then I will decide how to assist you."
"Thank you! You are truly an extraordinary man; I feel fortunate that you can help me. Naturally, I won’t trouble you every time I face difficulties, but if I come to you, it will surely be for something I cannot resolve myself."
Su Qianxue leaned closer to Jiang Han, holding onto his arm as she softly said, "When the time comes and I'm unable to handle the situation, I will sincerely ask for your assistance just this once."
Jiang Han tilted his head slightly and saw Su Qianxue clinging to his arm. He couldn't help but smile as he replied, "Alright, you've received your answer; it's time for you to head back. Whether you'll get answers next time depends on your intentions!"
"Thank you!"
"Then I shall take my leave!"
Su Qianxue said softly, bowing to Jiang Han before departing.
Piao Xue stepped forward and informed Jiang Han about the duel with Che Chengyun. He had found a Dancer and was curious about what they would be competing in. Was it a dance-off? Or perhaps a composition contest? Jiang Han was puzzled, unsure of what this Heir was truly after.
While he was deep in thought, he heard Yan Dong calling out to him. Upon approaching, he realized that Che Chengyun had returned, accompanied by a group of attendants who were eyeing Jiang Han's shop with interest. When they spotted Jiang Han, Che Chengyun couldn't help but mock him, saying, "You may be talented enough to turn the world upside down, but I wonder if I can challenge you again?"
"If I lose, I'll give you several treasures along with an extraordinary item! But if I win, then this shop of yours will be transferred to me. Of course, I'll also prepare a place for you at the Eastern City Inn, Yixingju. What do you say?"
"Yixingju? Isn't that the lowest-tier inn?" Cen Ya interjected.
Che Chengyun ignored Cen Ya and continued to address Jiang Han. "If you are too afraid to accept the challenge, that's fine. After all, with your reputation as a cowardly mouse, no one would think less of you. It suits you well."
Jiang Han couldn't help but scoff. "Alright, if you want to compete, then I’m eager to see what you're capable of. It’s not that I underestimate you; it's just that I have the ability to navigate both this world and the real one. If you can't even accept a challenge, that would be quite pathetic."
"Let's compete in choreography! The Great Zhou Dynasty is going to hold a welcome banquet for the Xia Guo Shi! Before the banquet, there will be a selection of Dancers from all over the capital. Those who excel in dance and composition will be chosen, and the best among them will be selected as the lead dancer and have a special program arranged just for them!"
"I am confident that my Dancers will secure that top spot! You can also select your own Dancers to compete; if you fail to claim that title, then it counts as your loss. What do you think?" Che Chengyun said slowly with a smirk on his face.
