On the third day, Le'er's body temperature had returned to normal, although the little guy had a rash, but Cheng Zisong was sure that this was a normal phenomenon and there was no danger.

She was relieved in her palace, and she began to deal with the affairs of the internal officials and supervisors.

Song Chen had already sent a message to hand over the matter to her, and when she heard that the little princess was no longer in trouble, Zhou Yu dared to go to Yufu Palace to ask for her will in person.

But she didn't have any intention for the time being.

She just got the right to be the assistant harem, and she didn't know much about the palace people, so of course she couldn't choose someone right away. However, the internal official supervisor is in charge of all kinds of objects that are usually needed by the palaces and halls, including the Qinzheng Palace, which is an extremely important place, and its chief is an extremely important position......

She said to Zhou Yu: "Don't hide it from Manager Zhou, this palace has been quite busy in the past few days, and I haven't thought of a suitable candidate for a while, let this palace think about it for a few more days, and then send someone to inform you when someone is decided." ”

"Yes." Zhou Yu didn't dare to say more, and quit immediately after receiving the order.

Although the internal officials and supervisors were anxious to have a new leader, this was already half the master of the harem, so he naturally didn't dare not listen to what he said, so he could only go back and wait patiently for a few more days.

Not long after Zhou Yu left, Chu Xue finally remembered someone, so she asked Fugui to go to the celebrant to invite Qiu Yan over.

Fugui hurried to invite someone.

He didn't know why Zhou Yu came, and now that the master wanted to see the master, of course he guessed the intention, the master was going to promote the master! Although the master is really in charge of affairs in the master of ceremonies, but the title is only a deputy manager, he worries hard but he still has to respect the chief manager who doesn't care about things above his head, Fugui has long been wronged for the master, and now the master has the heart to promote, if the master can become the head of the internal official supervisor, isn't it a promotion!

After a while, Qiu Yan arrived at Yufu Palace.

After he finished saluting, Chu Xue opened his mouth, Fugui guessed correctly, Chu Xue just wanted to move Qiu Yan to the internal official supervisor as the chief manager.

Unexpectedly, after Qiu Yan thought about it, he knelt down again, and said with a ashamed face: "The slave asks the concubine for his guilt!" It's not that the slave doesn't know how to lift, but the celebrant really can't leave, and this time he has to live up to the good intentions of the mother, and ask the mother to punish him! ”

This is really Chu Xue's surprise. Last time, I wanted to use him, but he was not the right age, and he was the deputy head of the first prison, so it was true that he was condescending to the first palace, but this time he was really promoted to an official, she thought he would respond happily, but she didn't expect him to refuse.

Unexpectedly, she spoke, half-jokingly and tentatively, "Oh? It seems that Mr. Qiu really values the celebrant and the celebrant eunuch, isn't it time to have too deep feelings? So that Mr. Qiu is reluctant to move the nest? ”

Qiu Yan sneered, "Niangniang is above, and the slave does not dare to deceive, it is not that the slave can't give up the celebrant supervisor, just because the slave is not on an errand in the internal official prison on weekdays, and he is not familiar with all kinds of important matters in the internal official prison. He paused, raised his eyes to look at Chu Xue's face, and continued: "But there is one of the slaves, and I want to recommend it to the mother, if the mother can trust the slave, you can try to use it first." ”

If Chu Xue couldn't trust him, he wouldn't have asked him to go to the inner official prison.

Chu Xue believed that Qiu Yan had no ill will towards her, otherwise Fugui would be in her palace every day, and it would be easy to harm herself, but he didn't, so she always trusted him. Now she didn't know why he rejected her kindness again, but she believed that he had his own considerations, and the person he recommended was ......

Chu Xue responded: "Oh? Mr. Qiu, does anyone want to be recommended by this palace? That's great, who is he, can you call me to meet with this palace? ”

Qiu Yan nodded, "This person's name is Wang Jin, he has been working as an errand in the internal official prison, and he has some ability, but he has been pressed by the previous chief of the internal official supervisor, he is loyal by nature, and the slave feels that if Niangniang is willing to promote him now, he will definitely be grateful to Dade and do his best for Niangniang." ”

Although Qiu Yan's words were a little more straightforward, it was good that everyone was open, and she was really interested in this Wang Jin, so she instructed Fugui, "According to what your master said, call the palace to see if you send people over." ”

Fugui responded, and went to the celebrant to find someone.

It didn't take long for Wang Jin in Qiu Yan's mouth to kneel in front of Chu Xue.

After listening to him report his name, Chu Xue took a look, and saw that although he was humble, he did not have a sleek and sophisticated atmosphere, and looked like a usable one, Chu Xue nodded and said: "The internal official supervisor is now lacking a general manager, Deputy Chief Qiu recommended you to the palace, and the palace will try you for a while, if the errand is good, you can do this position for a long time, if it is not good, don't blame the palace for giving it to others." ”

In a nutshell, grace and power coexist. Qiu Yan was relieved, Wenwen was really decent.

Wang Jin hurriedly kowtowed, "Slave Xie Guifei Niangniang appreciates!" In the future, I will do a good job of living up to my mother's expectations. ”

Without too many rhetoric, Chu Xue was very satisfied, and ordered someone to wait for someone to retreat, and then someone informed Zhou Yu.

So it didn't take long for Wang Jin, the new head of the internal official supervisor, to take office.

I don't know how much Chu Xue Xu Jinhe, the twelfth eunuch of the harem, has mastered, but she herself has now mastered the two places of celebrant and internal official, which is really a lot of progress.

~~

Since the first year of his ascension to the throne, Song Chen has already begun to prepare for one thing - cutting the feudal domain.

He had been a vassal king and understood how much authority the vassal king had, but now that he was the emperor of the whole world, he would never allow anyone to oppose his imperial power one day. Therefore, from the beginning of his accession to the throne, he has successively reduced the forces of the remaining three princes, and even gradually reduced the scope of their fiefdoms.

After experiencing the rebellion in the last years of Jianhe, the three princes actually understood that this day would eventually come, and there were no ambitious people like the former Ning Wang Ruiwang, so the implementation of the plan to cut the feudal domain was quite smooth.

And Yanzhou, Yongzhou and the southeast and other border places where there is no royal palace for a long time, the imperial court's troops have been stationed for several years, and the defense of Daqi should be called good, but despite this, there are still foreign races ready to move, vainly trying to take advantage of the time when Daqi is cutting down the domain to invade the border and get involved in the rivers and mountains.

Seeing that the wedding date in May was approaching, Luo Shu cherished the days when she was still at her parents' house, and embroidered her wedding dress with hope.

A needle pricked down, and beautiful flowers bloomed on the red wedding dress, full of the girl's hope for the future.

There was nothing to do in the afternoon of this day, Luo Shu stayed in the boudoir, and she didn't work long before she picked up the embroidery needle, and saw the maid Lan'er running over in a hurry.

"Oh no, Miss!"

Lan'er's shout made Luo Shu's hand, who was concentrating on embroidery, tremble, and her tender onion-like fingertips were unsuspectingly punctured by rusty needles, and a drop of blood appeared.

Luo Shu hissed, raised her eyes to look at Lan'er, and said angrily, "What are you making a fuss about?" ”

"Yes, I'm sorry Miss." Lan'er was also distressed when she saw her being pricked by needles, but she hurriedly apologized, and the little maid hurriedly conveyed the news she had just heard from her wife, "Miss, I heard that the war broke out in the northwest, and the emperor ordered the battle to meet it, and I appointed it to the court this morning, and I assigned ......."

"Who was assigned?" With a bad premonition in her heart, Luo Shu got up from the bed and asked anxiously.

"The emperor has assigned General Qin Mu to go to the northwest to meet the battle!" Lan'er finally spoke up.

Luo Shu took a breath of cold air, and sure enough, it was General Qin, her future father-in-law.

She is going to marry Qin Yuan in two months, and she doesn't know what the Northwest Battlefield will be, but it is about her father-in-law, and she is inevitably worried. Besides, if you catch up with the war, plus the time to go back and forth from the capital, it will inevitably take half a year, and once the father-in-law sets off, her marriage with Qin Yuan will definitely be postponed......

Worry, disappointment, dazedness and many other feelings came to her heart at once, making the girl at a loss.

After standing for a while, she remembered that she should ask her father, her father went to the court every day, and he knew these political affairs best, and if there was any arrangement on the Qin family's side, General Qin Mu should discuss it with his father.

The girl put down the half-embroidered wedding dress in her hand and hurried to the front yard.

Lord Luo is also talking about this matter with Mrs. Luo, and they are worried about the same as their daughter, not only for the safety of their father-in-law, but also about their daughter's marriage.

Knowing his daughter's intention, Lord Luo comforted: "It's a matter of family and country, and the holy decree has been issued, General Qin must be leaving, I heard that the war is urgent and can't be delayed today, and I think the army will set off in the next two days." Shu'er, the marriage can only be slowed down first, compared with the world, our are all trivial things. ”

Luo Shu had expected this, frowning and nodded.

Mrs. Luo also comforted her, "It's just a few months to postpone, we can afford to wait, and my father and mother are just reluctant to let you stay for a few more days!" ”

Luo Shu smiled shyly.

The family matter has been decided, they will be husband and wife sooner or later, fortunately, only the father-in-law is on this expedition, and Qin Yuan is still in the capital, so she doesn't have to worry too much.

But while she was a little relieved, she was worried about her future mother-in-law, Mrs. Qin, her father-in-law was about to go to the battlefield, and her mother-in-law must feel uncomfortable. Besides, my father-in-law was a general with great achievements, and there must have been many such expeditions in the early years, and my mother-in-law used to be alone with two children, which was really hard. The girl secretly made up her mind in her heart that when the future passed the door, she would be filial to her mother-in-law.

The fiancée in Luo's mansion was a little relieved, but the mother and son in Qin's mansion were arguing with reason.

As an ambitious young man with a disciple of the general, Qin Yuan wanted to go to the battlefield with his father to kill the enemy, but Mrs. Qin did not agree, she was such a son, and she was about to get married, but at this time she wanted to go to the distant northwest battlefield to kill the enemy, how could she be reluctant. Her husband went to war alone, she couldn't sleep well, if her son went with her, those barbarians were extremely vicious, how could she rest assured!

Although his mother tried his best to stop him, Qin Yuan didn't want to give up, he spoke to his father in a firm tone, "Dad, my son has admired you since he was a child, and he also wants to be a hero, so he has practiced martial arts seriously, and he has never been lazy. I beg you to let your son go with me! ”

Qin Mu looked at his determined son and his indignant wife, and he was also conflicted in his heart, why didn't he want his son to realize his ambitions and let the Qin family army have successors, but his wife's worries were not unreasonable, the battlefield killed the enemy without eyes, and the barbarians on the northwest border were good at fighting, and they were not so easy to deal with, and he was afraid that there would be accidents...... He is old, and there is no pity to die for the country, but his son has not even made a family, in case of a mistake, do you want to make the Qin family extinct?

"You want to be a hero, have you ever thought about what to do as a mother? The Qin family is just such a son as you, in case you have three long and two short ......"

Mrs. Qin's words were not finished, but they were cut off by her son, Qin Yuan said: "Mother, my son went to the front line to kill the enemy precisely to fulfill his filial piety, if all men in the world are afraid of such excuses, then wouldn't my Great Qi be annexed by the barbarians earlier?" Those ordinary soldiers can give up their small families to go to the battlefield to defend their families and defend the country, how can the son of my dignified general escape? ”

When such a statement was uttered, Qin Mu's heart shook. Isn't this what he thought when he was in Rong? A dignified man stands up to the sky, if he doesn't even dare to protect his family and country, what face does he have to live in the world?

Without waiting for his wife to refute anything, Qin Mu spoke: "Okay, according to your wishes, it's just an envoy of the Jingwei Division, you still have to explain, and you have to go back to the emperor." ”

"Son, let's enter the palace!" Seeing that his father finally agreed, Qin Yuan was overjoyed, and he wanted to turn around as soon as he left his words, but was stopped by his mother.

Mrs. Qin knew that she couldn't stop the father and son, so she didn't argue anymore, and only pointed out to him an important matter at the moment, "You were originally going to marry a wife and start a family in two months, but now you have to go to the battlefield by yourself, and ask your mother for you, Miss Luo, what are you going to do?" ”

Qin Yuan paused, finally remembered his fiancée and father-in-law's family, sighed, and said, "Don't worry, my son will go to make amends in person." ”

With that, he strode out of the room.
