I got some inspiration from my mother's guidance, and I didn't go to the auction myself, but only called Feng Yongchang, told him about it, and ordered him to "choose a competent and capable person" to prepare, and if it was done well, it would be handed over to him in the future.

Feng Yongchang was happy to be admitted, because I asked him to recommend someone, and immediately said a few names, but they were all domestic servants whose names I could name, I was just about to nod, thought for a while, and said: "This matter is not for me, but for Your Majesty, and the person who does the work is also to be named in Your Majesty's place-do you understand?"

This guy may not be able to do anything else, but Xi Zhimei's skills are first-class, and he immediately smiled: "The villain will go back and visit again, and choose a few from among the scholars - I'm afraid that the villain will be lowly and light, and these people may not be willing to listen to the villain." ”

I squinted at him: "Over the years, you have been doing things up and down, from prefectures and counties to Taiwan Province, where are you not here? I have never seen anyone despise you because of your humble position, why is it that you are 'humble and light' this time?"

Feng Yongchang saw that I was displeased, rubbed his hands and smiled dryly and did not speak, I glanced at him, and then looked at Feng Shiliang standing on the side, but remembered the reason for him - Feng Shiliang since he was disabled, and received another son, who was elected to the court last year, and had been awarded a seven-grade substantive position, thinking that this guy looked hot - and said: "If this thing is done well, I recommend you a six-grade." ”

Feng Yongchang squinted with a smile, but he didn't pat his chest to set up a military order, I saw his appearance, and I couldn't help but say: "Doing things for Your Majesty is different from doing things for me, doing things for me is wrong, but the family law is a little punishment, and doing things for Your Majesty must be loyal, diligent and thrifty... Don't be greedy for ink, cheating, etc., understand?"

I don't know if he listened or not, but he always responded anyway, and he walked out lightly, with brisk steps, as if his disability was no longer there.

I looked at his back, inexplicably felt a little uncomfortable, got up and walked around the hall, I wanted to find Cui Mingde, walked out, halfway through, somehow I saw the Baisun Academy, my mother had responded to my request, Zhun Wu Chenghei went to the East Palace every day to teach, the emperors and grandsons also went to the attached school, the Baisun Yuan seemed cold and deserted during the day, and there were still some sounds of silk and bamboo in Su Ri, but today it was quiet, from the outside to the inside, not a word.

I approached Ah Huan's courtyard gently, and when I got inside, I saw two little chamberlains sitting under the porch, yawning and roasting the fire, one of them was finely broken, as if he was saying something, and the other obviously didn't listen to her, nodding his head perfunctorily, and only when he saw me closer, he got up in a panic and almost kicked over the brazier.

I frowned and glanced at the two of him, they were all familiar faces, but they were not usually served in the inner hall, and when I walked inside, I saw Wang Deli standing inside, watching the people in the small palace sweeping, and when I saw me, I saluted: "Is the princess looking for the princess?"

I stopped and said, "Why is Mrs. Wang here?"

Wang Dedao: "Wei Qiqi is gone, there are few people here, so Your Majesty chose a concubine to serve the princess." ”

I glanced at her, and swept the people in the hall with both eyes, and saw that the rest of the people had not changed much, Fang breathed a sigh of relief, Wang De led me to the west side of the Buddha hall, and saw smoke at the door, as if I was burning incense and worshipping the Buddha, but there was no one on the straw mat in front of the Buddha, and I looked inside, Ah Huan was wearing a plain white fox fur, sitting cross-legged on the low couch against the wall, playing against himself - but it seemed to be thinking about something, and the two fingers of his right hand were holding the sunspot, and he had not fallen for a long time.

Wang De was about to knock on the door, I waved her hand to stop her, drove everyone out, walked to the couch gently, sat down in front of Ah Huan, she didn't show a surprised look when she saw me coming, just threw the chess pieces aside, and said softly: "Taiping." ”

I didn't know what to say, so I had to reach out and shake her hand—it was cold, and I glanced at her clothes, except for the fox fur on the outside, there was only a plain dress inside, and the fox fur was draped very casually, only covering a small piece of her back, two forearms, Both hands, and even the chest are exposed to the cold air in the winter, this Buddha hall is not like a dormitory, the furnishings are simple, the doors and windows in the front are still open, the curtains are not set, the cold wind is whirring from the outside, looking down, there is only a brazier in front of the couch, the fire inside is almost extinguished, only a few faint red lights are flickering there weakly.

Fortunately, I didn't take off my clothes when I entered, so I untied my cloak, covered her tightly, covered her hands with both hands, and raised my voice to call the palace people to come in and add charcoal, Ah Huan looked at me, I was afraid that she would play a stinky temper at this moment, so she said: "I'm cold." ”

Ah Huan pulled the corners of her mouth, didn't say anything, I asked the palace people for a small copper stove, half-hugged and half-supported her legs, so that she stretched flat in front of the couch, squatted on the edge of the couch, touched her knees, took the copper stove on her lap, baked her hands on the stove for a while, rubbed her legs hot, her legs to the side, I pulled her legs back: "My hands are cold, borrow your legs to bake." Glancing at her in thin socks, she kicked the brazier closer, holding her feet close to me, and she squinted at me: "You're here." ”

I hummed, still not knowing what to say, so I squatted down by the brazier, stretched out my hands on it, squatted for a while, and when I was a little tired, I found a blanket and put it on the ground. As soon as she sat down, she got up silently, took my hand, led me to sit on the couch, walked down to the ground, closed the door on that side, lifted a copper kettle from the stove in the corner of the door, poured two cups of hot tea, one cup stuffed it in my hand, and took a small quilt, moved the small table, the small quilt covered my lap, and the copper stove was stuffed in the quilt, she also stretched her legs in, holding the tea in both hands, and looked at me from a distance of two or three feet.

I held the hot tea, unconsciously relaxed, and called her softly: "Ah Huan." I wanted to talk about the etiquette first, but when I said it, the first thing I mentioned was the auction: "I asked Feng Yongchang to prepare for this, and by the way, find a few more available people for me - I really don't have many people here." ”

She snorted and said, "Miscellaneous matters can be taken care of by him, but this matter involves a wife, from the princess down, more and more with the grand event, in addition to you, the master, there must always be a woman to coordinate inside and outside." ”

I knew who she wanted to say, and smiled lightly: "Just send a female official for this matter." I want to borrow the power of A-Niang, so it's best to be close to the emperor, have some prestige, and be kind to me - the age should not be too big or small, and you can talk to the top and bottom. ”

Ah Huan heard that there was something in my words, and he didn't speak, but said, "You already have a candidate in mind?"

I deliberately asked her, "You don't guess who?"

She looked at me: "I thought it was Cui Er, but looking at your appearance, it doesn't look like it." I can't think of anyone else but her. ”

I laughed, "You try to guess again." ”

She tilted her head to look at me and said, "It won't be He Loushang Palace..."

I shook my head: "I want to ask Master Shangguan to do this." ”

Ah Huan's hand holding the tea moved, raised his eyes to look at me, and I smiled: "Everyone in front of the palace, except for Ah Cui, only she has the thickest relationship with me, compared to Ah Cui, she is more trusted by Ah Niang, and there are no interests involved, and she also knows the most about proportion, and so far, only she and Ah Cui have the permission of Ah Niang to go out of the palace for the night." ”

Ah Huan stared at the corner of the quilt with two eyes, and took a small sip of tea: "Listen to what you mean, it's not like doing an 'auction', but it's going to do something amazing." ”

I smiled: "At first, it was an auction, and slowly it was not, I thought about it, instead of using this matter to run my private party and make my personal friends, it is better to ask Master Shangguan to run his public party for A-Niang, and choose reliable people in the exchange, you can set up a women's club, with A-Niang as the leader of the society, and Master Shangguan as the substitute, specializing in helping poor women in the world." Glancing at her, he said softly: "I offended Gao Yanfu, and Master Shangguan, don't worry." ”

The corners of her mouth moved, as if she wanted to laugh, but in the end she didn't laugh, just touched my hand and called softly: "Taiping." 166 Reading Network
