Chapter 2479 Accepting bribes
Are the children of the royal family so easy to take care of?
In particular, there is an eight-year-old little prince and little princess here, who are the emperor's two youngest children. Although their mother and concubine are not very favored, the emperor always loves his children, even if they are concubines and concubines, as long as he is free
I'll come over and ask, so it's not easy to offend anyone.
Not to mention the grandsons sent by the princes, there are really a lot of grandsons.
Except for the prince's son who was still young, all the princes' children were among them. In the past, the emperor's concubine brothers sent all their sons, daughters, and grandchildren of the right age to express their loyalty.
Man Bao has seen the list in the newspaper. To be honest, with her excellent memory, she can't remember everyone now.
You can see how many people there are.
She didn't want to be burdened, but the emperor was her superior's superior, and it was even harder to refuse his request, so she sighed in her heart and agreed with a calm face.
The emperor was satisfied, and pointed to Princess Gong and said: "You children, you have been doing well for a while. This time Prince Gong came from Luozhou and asked Princess Gong to prepare a gift for you."
Man Bao was not flattered, she was only horrified.
Prince Gong was also stunned for a moment, and turned to glare at Princess Gong.
Princess Gong was a little embarrassed, but under the eyes of the Emperor and Prince Gong, she still stood up and walked to Zhou Man, took her hand and smiled and said: "I heard from the two sisters that Mr. Zhou has already set a wedding date, so from Luo
When Zhou came here, I prepared some congratulatory gifts for Mr. Zhou, just think of it as an extra gift."
In fact, what she was thinking was that her son was about to be vaccinated. Although the emperor said that vaccination was safe, she was still a little scared.
There is a big difference between an imperial physician being diligent and being just conscientious or negligent.
As for Zhou Man's high position in Taiyuan Hospital, she was a little worried.
So she specially prepared a gift when she came. She originally wanted to ask Mingda to give it to her, but when she was whispering to Mingda, her aunt on the side heard it, and the queen knew about it.
The queen told the emperor. Who knew that the emperor pointed it out directly?
The queen didn't expect it either, so she glanced at the emperor and saw that he was still looking at Princess Gong and Zhou Man who were having a "very happy conversation" with a satisfied look on his face. The queen withdrew her gaze.
Forget it, besides having some abilities in court, what else can you expect from this man?
Princess Gong took Zhou Man to look at the gift. There were three layers of jewelry in a makeup box. When each layer was opened, the jewelry inside...
Well, Man Bao, who has seen many gems and pearls, is not dumbfounded, but his heart is also beating fast, which shows how good this jewelry is.
Among them, pearl jewelry and exquisite gold jewelry are the most common.
Princess Gong directly opened the top layer, took out a golden hairpin and showed it to Zhou Man, and said with a smile: "These are golden phoenixes. I specially asked someone to make a pair. Do you like it, Mr. Zhou?"
Man Bao came to his senses and quickly declined: "How can I accept such a heavy gift from Princess Gong if I don't receive any reward for my merits?"
Princess Gong smiled and said: "How can it be a waste of effort? You helped Prince Gong lose weight and took care of his injured leg. This is all credit."
Man Bao was ashamed, these two things were not considered good things to Prince Gong. Isn't it really a matter of holding a grudge?
"Besides, your happy event is approaching. Even without these antecedents, you still deserve this gift. My elephant will also move into the Daming Palace, and Mr. Zhou will need to take more care of it in the future."
Man Bao instantly understood in his heart that he was bribing me, and he was bribing me in front of the emperor and empress.
She was confused, should she accept it or not?
If she doesn't accept it, will the emperor and the empress feel that she doesn't want to be on good terms with Prince Gong?
Man Bao looked at the jewelry in the makeup box nonchalantly. Although he felt that accepting bribes was not good, it should still be okay if he had passed the Emperor's Ming Road, right?
When she was thinking, Mingda pushed her gently and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law came all the way to get it from Luozhou for you, you can't let anyone take it back, right?"
Chang Yu also said: "Since it's given to you, just accept it."
Didn't you notice that her father kept looking over?
Man Bao tried hard to suppress the smile on his face, but he still couldn't help nodding with a smile on his face, "Thank you very much, Princess Gong."
Manbao paused and said, "Thank you too, Prince Gong."
Princess Gong could see that Zhou Man really liked her, and she couldn't hide the smile between her brows and eyes. Then she breathed a sigh of relief and smiled and said, "It's fine if Mr. Zhou likes her."
Of course she likes it, she likes all valuable and beautiful things.
So Man Bao happily returned to Tai Hospital with a makeup box in his arms.
The hospital was relatively quiet because the official decree had not yet been issued, so he tried hard to hold back the emotions he shared with his subordinates. As soon as he returned to the hospital, he locked himself in the office room and could not come out.
When Man Bao came back with the makeup box, he was grabbed by Doctor Zheng and others. They frowned and said, "Mr. Zhou, did you ever quarrel when you went to Taichang Temple?"
When Xiao Yuan came back just now, his eyes were all red.
Man Bao still had a happy smile on his face, shook his head and said, "We didn't go to Taichang Temple."
Even Dr. Liu couldn't help but frown, "Didn't you go to Taichang Temple to seek justice?"
"Oh, let's go to Tai Chi Hall to find His Majesty." Seeing that they seemed to know nothing, Man Bao planned to share the good news with them. Suddenly Xiao Yuanzheng's office opened and he left.
He came out and looked at Zhou Man and said: "Physician Zhou, the decree has not been officially issued yet, so we should not publicize this matter for the time being."
Man Bao swallowed back the words that came to his lips, nodded slightly with Dr. Zheng and said, "Okay, then you wait for two more days, and you will know when the decree comes down."
Doctor Zheng: "...it's just a matter of one sentence whether we agree or disagree with us adding subjects, so why can't we say it?"
Dr. Lu kept a close eye on Zhou Man, and was most concerned about whether he could add a vaccination department, because it was related to his vital interests.
Man Bao said: "I can tell you this, we can add more."
Xiao Yuanzheng couldn't stop him, so he opened his mouth and closed it. Forget it, just tell them.
Doctor Liu stared at Zhou Man's happy face, then turned back to look at Xiao Yuanzheng, and couldn't help but pat his head. His eyesight was really dim, and he had misjudged the color. Instead of being sad, he was clearly excited.
Since it was a good thing, he stopped prying and turned back to his office. He also said: "Mr. Zhou, it's your turn to check up at the Daming Palace today."
Thinking of his promise to the emperor, Manbao responded, "I'll be there soon."
Doctor Zheng then looked at the thing in her hand and asked, "What is this?"
Manbao said happily: "This is a gift from Princess Gong, hehehe..."
Everyone looked at the tall makeup box she was holding with envy or jealousy. This was the advantage of a female doctor. It was much more convenient for them to accept bribes from the women in the harem.
