"uncle… "

Lu Ming looked at the tall and beautiful girl who came into Ning Hexuan with some surprise. After a long time, he could tell from her features that it was indeed Bisi. But her voice had changed. It was very sweet and tender, not childish anymore.

She is as tall as her mother, with blonde hair and blue eyes, and her petite figure is gradually becoming apparent. Western girls do develop early.

Wearing a black and red plaid college-style uniform skirt, snow-white over-the-knee socks and lace-up loafers, Biss is still as cute as ever, but with a more youthful and energetic beauty.

"You've grown into a big girl!" Lu Ming couldn't say the words he had prepared. Moreover, the rebellious period of teenagers is actually the most difficult to get along with. It is the period when they form their own worldview. When you don't know her true thoughts and don't understand her well, chatting with her is a chore.

Looking at this familiar yet strange little girl, seeing her lowering her head and not talking much, Lu Ming smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for two or three years. Don't you miss me? Why don't you accompany your mother to see me?"

"I can see my uncle on TV..." Bess whispered.

Lu Ming said helplessly: "But I can't see you. I have only seen the photo of you and your mother."

Bis was silent.

Lu Ming had no choice but to stand up and say, "Let's go and see what your mother is doing. Why didn't she come with you?"

Bis whispered, "Sister Twenty-Seven sent word that you wanted to see me alone, and Mom is talking to Sister Jennifer."

Lu Ming said helplessly: "We don't have so many rules." He added: "But then I won't disturb the two sisters and will go there later." He felt a little warm in his heart when he said this.

Glancing at Bisi, Lu Ming said, "When I have some free time, I'll take you out to play. You loved to pester me when you were little, do you remember?"

Bisi whispered, "Uncle promised to take me out to play last time, but he still hasn't fulfilled his promise in more than five years."

Lu Ming paused and coughed, "It's settled this time! By the way, your birthday is at the end of October, right? When is it?"

Bisi's eyes lit up and she said, "October 28th, uncle, do you remember my birthday in October?"

Lu Ming had a vague impression, and seeing that he was right, he nodded confidently: "Of course, how could uncle forget? Well, let's do it on October 28th, which is just a few days away. I will go to Donghai to celebrate your birthday then. You are in Form 4, right?"

Windsor College provides one-stop teaching from primary school to secondary school to women's college.

"Uncle, I want to transfer to Shengjing." Bisi said suddenly.

"Ah?" Lu Ming was stunned. Bisi once transferred to Montenegro for a short period of time, but she still couldn't adapt and finally returned to Windsor College in Donghai.

"Uncle, can I get into Shengjing University? I want to live here. Uncle, do you want to be an emperor? I knew it when I was a child!" Bisi finally spoke more, tilting her little head up, looking very proud.

Ignoring topics like the emperor, Lu Ming nodded, "It's up to you, but there is only one women's university in Shengjing, called Shengjing Women's Normal College. Do you want to be a teacher? It's better not to go to a co-educational school." He sounded a little helpless as he spoke. From the perspective of taking care of his daughter, he was an old feudalist. However, he did feel that the education in a girls' school was more suitable for young girls.

"I'm not Sister Meizhen. I can study anything. I can graduate from a normal school and do the job I like, right?" Bisi asked hopefully.

Lu Ming smiled and said, "Of course." He became curious: "What kind of work do you like?"

"I want to be a lawyer." Bis blurted out.

Lu Ming was helpless: "Why would I go to a normal college to be a lawyer?" He added: "But we'll talk about it when the time comes."

Bisi nodded gently and said, "Uncle, you go ahead and do your work. I'll be downstairs now!"

"Well, go ahead!" Lu Ming waved his hand.

After Bisi left, Lu Ming said, "Remember, I will celebrate Bisi's birthday on the 28th of this month."

"Yes!" Big and small Guo shouted in unison, but no one could see where they were.

Lu Ming was about to get up and leave when he suddenly caught sight of a book called "The Daily Records of the Tianshan Palace" on the table and picked it up to read.

Inside is the layout of the inner court on the twelfth floor and above, as well as the personnel accommodated.

In addition to the Renhe Hall, side halls, lounges, etc., the twelfth floor also has twenty suites, each of which is 100 square meters and can accommodate four people. They are inhabited by outer palace maids, who are Western slaves, Western Region slaves, border slaves, etc., who serve the daily lives of the upper-class masters.

The thirteenth floor is left empty because the twelfth floor is the Golden Dragon Palace. Although in modern society, buildings and palaces are not so particular, the thirteenth floor is still left empty to prevent anyone from stepping directly on the Golden Dragon Palace.

The fourteenth floor is the residence of the inner palace maids, or Qing'e and Hongling. There are a total of fifty suites, with two people living in each room. The mistresses do not need them except for the prince who needs them to serve in his daily life. The mistresses are assigned to serve as outer palace maids to serve as servants. Qing'e and Hongling serve more as a guard force.

It is said that one suite is for two people, but this palace building is magnificent, and the usable area of each floor is more than 5,000 square meters, so their suite is more than 100 square meters, which is very spacious and comfortable.

Of course, many Qing'e and Hongling work outside and do not live here, but this is where they have their lodgings and their homes.

The rooms here are directly regarded as their private property. Once they stop working here, the inner court can redeem them with money.

On the fifteenth floor, there are ten luxurious suites. Judging from the names, they are named "Garden" and are reserved for concubines to live in, but they are now idle.

The same is true for the sixteenth floor, with ten luxury suites, each of which is more than 500 square meters, comparable to the presidential suite in Lu Ming's previous life.

In fact, even the important palaces in the Forbidden City, such as the Kunning Palace where the queen should have lived, are only about a thousand square meters in area including the courtyards. If we only look at the buildings, the area is not as large as these "gardens".

The seventeenth floor has four palaces, which are named "palace" because they are where concubines of higher status live.

They are all over a thousand square meters, about the same size as the "Kunning Palace" with courtyards.

Lu Ming was suddenly startled. According to the "Diary", two of the palaces on the seventeenth floor were occupied by people, one was Nicole and the other was Jin Meizhen.

On the eighteenth floor, there are only two palaces, one owned by Pamela and the other owned by Jennifer.

Each palace is nearly 3,000 square meters, and you can imagine how grand and luxurious it is.

The nineteenth floor and above each has a palace, namely Liuli, Bizhu, Alice and myself at the top.

After thinking for a while, Lu Ming picked up the phone and dialed the internal number 4. Soon, Liuli's delicate voice sounded on the other end: "Master, do you want to see me?"

Lu Ming asked: "Did Nicole come this time?"

Liuli sighed slightly, "It turns out that Master is missing someone else. She is currently filming a movie, and it will take a few days for us to visit her new home. But she knows about this and is very happy."

Lu Ming nodded and asked, "What's going on with Jin Meizhen?"

After all, Nicole is his secret lover, and they meet several times a year. It is reasonable to arrange a palace for her here, but what about Xiao Meizhen

I haven't seen her for many years, but I have always been paying attention to her affairs. She is doing very well in the Huaxia Laboratory now.

Most of the Huaxia laboratories moved to Montenegro, but some projects remained in the East China Sea. The computer project that Jin Meizhen participated in was one of them.

Hearing Lu Ming asking about Jin Meizhen, Liuli whispered, "Yes, I made the decision on my own. If I did something wrong, please punish me. As for sister Meizhen, I sent Qing'e to talk to her a few days ago. It's just that she is working on some scientific research project and can't come to Shengjing for the time being."

"Nonsense!" Lu Ming couldn't help but laugh while scolding. Not only was he not angry, he even felt that Liuli was considerate. This vixen must know this.

In fact, the management of the inner court should have been done by Empress Alice, but she was young and secluded herself all day long.

Then it should be Donggong Hanzhu and Bizhu, but neither of them is the type to like to manage these things.

So it was finally handed over to Liuli, who arranged everything in an orderly manner and was also very good at guessing what he was thinking.

Thinking about it, Lu Ming shook his head. Listening to Liuli still apologizing in a low voice on the other end, Lu Ming snorted and hung up the phone.
