The middle palace, the imperial study.
What happened in the harem yesterday has spread to the court and the public this morning, and now the cases in the imperial study are piled up with the memorials of courtiers and the remonstrance of the imperial court. There are many memorials in the courtroom. The sect, the southern sect is the stubborn sect headed by Nan Yushi, and has always been the most troublesome group of people for Dongfang Yao. After the original owner ascended the throne, these old guys caused him a lot of trouble, but facing these two dynasties, they With the Queen Mother standing behind him, Dongfang Yao could only endure it all the time.
However, I didn't expect that the hands of these old guys were really long, and this nosy thing has come to the emperor's harem.
Looking at the remonstrance on the table who scolded him for being too tyrannical, Su Rui just smiled coldly, what is tyranny, you guys don't know what real tyranny is, you are just a group of stubborn old people who think they are relying on the old and selling the old.
Dongfang Yao wanted to keep his old relationship and stabilize the Chao Gang, so he had to compromise with the people from the southern faction, but now that Su Rui has become Dongfang Yao, he doesn't care about the advice of these people, and if it doesn't work, he will cut it all down, so what
"His Majesty."
Wang Yi, who was originally guarding the door of the study, walked quickly to Su Rui's side, bowed his body, lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, someone from Cining Palace, the Queen Mother invites you to join us in Cining Palace. meal."
Queen Mother
"I'm busy and don't have time."
Su Rui didn't even have the slightest impression of being the empress dowager. The widowed queen mother at a young age has always been in close contact with foreign relatives, and has always been delusional about influencing the government. More importantly, she is not actually Dongfang Yao's biological mother, and the mother and son are naturally not in the same mind.
Hearing Su Rui's words, Wang Yi was not surprised. His Majesty is too abnormal these days, and Wang Yi, who has accepted too many surprises, has learned to be calm.
Isn't that just rejecting the queen mother? Isn't this what Your Majesty has always wanted to do but never had the chance to do
Thinking of the one in the Cining Palace, Wang Yi couldn't help frowning, thinking about how gentle, virtuous and considerate she was when the late emperor was still there, but after the late emperor passed away and entrusted her with His Majesty, she immediately It's like you've changed a person, and you're ambitious all day long, forming a party for selfishness, and still wanting to be an empress
After Wang Yi left, Su Rui casually flipped through a few chapters of memorials. When he saw a memorial of a general of the Imperial Forest Army, Su Rui's movements froze for a moment, and his eyes fell on a person's name.
Shen Shengbei.
He is Su Wan's fiancé in the original plot, and the male protagonist of this world. And this memorial is that the generals of the Imperial Forest Army wrote to promote some outstanding guards under his command, and Shen Shengbei was also included in this promotion.
Su Rui frowned and looked at it for a long time, and finally wrote the word "quasi-play" on it.
As for the other memorials, they were all ignored by General Su without exception...
Harem, still service bureau.
There was such a big incident yesterday. Several people died in the Shangfu Bureau. Now there is a serious shortage of manpower. Mistress Liao is taking Yan Yunuo to look through the roster of some newly entered palace maids. She plans to select some female celebrities. The little palace maid complements the staff of the Shangfu Bureau.
"Xu Bingyue?"
In the roster of palace maids, Yan Yunuo saw Xu Bingyue's name unexpectedly. When she was in the imperial hospital that day, she knew the little palace maid and knew that she and Su Wan sent her to the imperial hospital together. Later, she told herself that her full name was "Xu Bingyue".
"Yunuo, do you know her?"
Hearing Yan Yunuo's voice, the emcee Liao, who was beside him, turned to look at her and asked a question in doubt.
"Go back to Master Liao. Yesterday, the servant was infected with the cold. She and Su Wan sent the servant to the imperial hospital together."
Speaking of this, Yan Yunuo couldn't help but think of Su Wan who was assigned to the Xinzheku, and her whole person's expression immediately became sad: "I don't know how Su Wan is over there? She is not in good health, no Do you know if you can survive it?"
Because the Shangfu Bureau was so busy today, Yan Yunuo didn't have time to meet Chen Ji and didn't know how things were going on his side.
Hearing Yan Yunuo's worried words, Emcee Liao just sighed in her heart. Su Wan is also a good seedling, but she offended His Majesty. Although he only said that he would be sent to Xin Zheku for a month, if the time comes, if there is no His Majesty's oral order, Who would dare to let her out without permission
"Yunuo, everyone in this deep palace is rootless duckweed, everyone has their own destiny, you just need to take care of yourself."
Emcee Liao could see that Yan Yunuo was too kind-hearted and soft-hearted. She would remind her from time to time, lest she lose her own life for not trusting others in the future.
Hearing the words of the emcee Liao, Yan Yunuo moved her lips and said nothing. She knew that Emcee Liao had her own way of life, but Yan Yunuo also had her own principles. She knew that Su Wan was punished like this because of herself, and she had to find a way to save her no matter what.
"Since you know this Xu Bingyue, what do you think of her?"
Seeing that Yunuo stopped talking, Master Liao turned his attention to the roster of maids in his hand again.
"Bingyue is very kind and enthusiastic, and a good girl."
Thinking of Xu Bingyue's face in her memory, Yan Yunuo couldn't help but say a few good words for her.
"Since you think she's good, let her work with you instead of Su Wan."
Emcee Liao still trusts Yan Yunuo very much. Seeing emcee Liao put a checkmark on Xu Bingyue's name, a happy smile appeared on Yan Yunuo's face. At this time, Madam Yan would never have thought that in In the near future, Xu Bingyue will become the biggest enemy in her life...
Xinzhe Library—
Su Wan, who stayed in the room for a whole morning doing nothing, simply strolled in Xinzheku's yard. This is different from the clothes washing bureau. The palace servants of the washing clothes bureau have to wash clothes in the yard every day, from morning to night. You can only stay in the same place, but most of Xinzheku's people work outside, and they can only come back at night or when they are eating.
At noon, Xin Zheku's courtyard was empty, and the withered and yellow leaves were also blown by the autumn wind. The fallen leaves all over the ground made the already lonely courtyard even more depressing.
Su Wan strolled around in the yard, and when she reached the gate, she saw a sneaky figure watching outside Xin Zheku's door.
Su Wan frowned and didn't intend to pay attention, but at this time, the little palace maid in blue at the door saw Su Wan's figure with sharp eyes, and immediately waved to her, and whispered softly, "Hello. This sister, please speak further."
Su Wan:…
Can I pretend I didn't hear it
"Sister! This little sister!"
Seeing that Su Wan completely ignored her and turned around and was about to go back, the little palace maid was also in a hurry and looked around. She quickly rushed into the door of Xinzheku, and then pulled Su Wan hard and dragged her to the door. Outside the corner: "This sister, there is something I want to ask you about."
While speaking, the palace maid had already stuffed some pieces of silver into Su Wan's hands.
The monthly salary of the palace servants of Xinzheku is only half of that of the low-level palace maids. Although these pieces of silver are small, in their eyes, it can be regarded as a windfall.
The maid in blue brocade was waiting for Su Wan to show her a flattering smile, but Su Wan just silently put away the money and looked at her lightly: "Just ask, I don't know much."
In fact, she knows absolutely nothing about the people of Xinzhe Curry, okay
Uh.
The little palace maid quickly reacted after hearing Su Wan's words, and asked in a quick tone, "You Xin Zheku had a new palace maid named Su Wan, did you know that?"
Um
Su Wan's eyes flashed when she heard her name, and then she nodded slightly: "I know."
"Then do you know why she entered the Xinzhe Library?"
The palace maid in blue asked again, as if she was afraid of being seen by others, her tone became faster and faster.
"I heard that I offended Your Majesty."
Su Wan continued to answer unhurriedly, and took the opportunity to glance around the little palace maid. She was not only wearing a brocade palace dress for her age, but also the headgear in her hair was expensive. If Su Wan hadn't guessed. If it's wrong, she should be the maid in charge of a certain imperial concubine, and this imperial concubine is most likely...
"Do you know why she offended His Majesty?" The blue clothed palace maid's question interrupted Su Wan's thoughts.
"I don't know." Su Wan shook her head innocently: "She didn't say this, and we don't ask much."
Hearing Su Wan's answer, the blue-clothed palace maid hesitated and took out some pieces of silver and stuffed it into Su Wan's hands: "Help me today to find out why she was punished, I will be here tomorrow at this time. , If you can find out, I will have a great reward!"
A thick report
Su Wan's eyes flashed: "Okay, I still don't know what your sister's name is?"
"I?"
The blue-clothed palace maid hesitated for a while, but still said in a low voice: "You call me Sister Wanxin, I'll go first, you must remember what I entrusted to you! Wait for me here tomorrow!"
While speaking, Wan Xin looked around with a guilty conscience, and then quickly walked away.
Wan Xin, the maid in charge of Xiuning Palace, one of the confidants of the good concubine.
Su Wan stared at the direction Wan Xin was leaving, thinking about the good concubine she had never met before—
She specially sent people to inquire about her news, was she simply curious about this harem bloodshed incident? Or do you have a discerning eye to recognize talents, and stare at yourself at this time
In Dongfang Yao's harem, there really isn't a single fuel-efficient lamp.
