Officials' Congratulations, Treasures Abound

Sima Qin found himself in a state of perplexity, pondering unconsciously the profound words he had once read in the late hours, penned by Gu Lan in a tome.

Those phrases, seemingly insignificant compared to the grandeur of establishing principles for the cosmos, now struck a chord deep within his heart.

"Ample provisions, sufficient clothing and sustenance, observance of decorum... Why not partake in opulence..." he murmured softly.

"It's no wonder Prince Jingyang, at such a tender age, could utter such thought-provoking words," Sima Qin mused.

"This is what it means to truly care for the people!" he exclaimed, casting a respectful glance towards Gu Lan.

With a slight bow, Sima Qin solemnly paid his respects to Gu Lan. Nearby, Zhang Feng, an official of the Ministry of Revenue, happened to pass by, regarding Sima Qin with curiosity.

"Great Chancellor Sima, what are you doing?" Zhang Feng inquired.
