In the Qianzheng Palace, although it was late afternoon, Ji Xuanyuan was still reviewing the recitals, but the few sentences of Zhu Zi were to the point, and he completely controlled the affairs of the court and politics in his own hands.

The atmosphere in the Qinzheng Hall was solemn, surrounded by the fragrance of ambergris, but Ji Xuanyuan was stunned, on weekdays, it was all ground by An Sui himself, Ji Xuanyuan thought of this, shook his head, and realized that he had just appeared at a happy gathering, and thought it was An Sui. Fang Cai stared at this inkstone for a long time but didn't know how to speak, and it was really ridiculous to think about it at this time.

It's just that the events of that morning seemed to have suddenly become a gap between the two people, and neither of them took the initiative to mention it, but they both kept silent knowingly.

An Sui has obviously spoken a lot less these days, although he used to be quiet but he didn't feel unfamiliar, but now he seems to have become a rival.

"Xu Mingchang, where is Ah Suiren?"

Xu Mingchang didn't sleep all night yesterday's vigil, he wasn't on duty today, so he was naturally a little sleepy when he served, and this Qinzheng Hall was too quiet, Xu Mingchang almost fell asleep. At this time, Ji Xuanyuan's voice made him feel excited, and the drowsiness of his whole body was scared away, and he hurriedly woke up.

"Your Majesty, Lord An was invited away by the Queen Mother and the Queen today."

"The Queen Mother and the Empress?" Ji Xuanyuan was puzzled, "What did the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother ask Ah Sui to do?" ”

"This ......" Xu Mingchang hesitated, but decided to tell the truth. The Queen Mother said that there have been many happy events in the palace recently, and the number of female officials around the emperor, the queen mother and Concubine Yan is insufficient, so the queen mother called the queen mother and Concubine Yan and Lord An to pick a few appropriate female officials to serve the masters of the harem. The most important thing is to choose two female officials for the emperor to serve by his side, so he called Master An to go. ”

How did Ji Xuanyuan not know what the Queen Mother was doing, but he could only pretend to be deaf and dumb, and let the Queen Mother do it, but after re-approving a few pieces, he suddenly remembered something, so he had to ask again, "Xu Mingchang, where are the Queen Mothers now?" ”

Xu Mingchang hurriedly said, "This, it should be in the Queen Mother's Palace!" ”

"Then, I'll go and see it too."

"What does the emperor mean?"

Ji Xuanyuan put down his pen, "Although Ah Sui is the master of ceremonies next to me, how do I know these reasons, since I want to choose a female official for me, I naturally have to pass by." Why, when Empress Dowager Xu chooses, can't she show me for herself? Let's go! What are you still doing? ”

Aunt Mang brought the prepared tea and gave it to the Queen Mother first, "Queen Mother, please use tea." ”

The Queen Mother glanced at it, but did not reach out to take it, but looked at An Sui, An Sui immediately understood, got up and saw the teacup in Aunt Mang's hand, and raised her eyebrows respectfully, "Please use the tea for the Queen Mother!" ”

The Queen Mother paused for a while before taking the teacup in An Sui's hand, "Lord An still knows the rules very well!" ”

"Weichen is a minister, and he doesn't dare to be disrespectful and self-serving."

The queen smiled and said to the female officials below, "It is this reason, as a female official, even if it is for the high-ranking person, it is also for the emperor to do things, Lord An can be in a high position and always remember this matter, it should be an example for all of you, I hope you can always remember this in the future." ”

"I am very happy to be taught by the queen."

An Sui knew that the queen was relieving herself, but at this time, Yan Shumao suddenly laughed, "The queen really cherishes Lord An." ”

An Sui stretched out his hand and brought the tea to Zong Zhengyu and Yan Shumao, "The queen mother cares about the harem, and the six palaces of virtue are caring for the official, so she naturally cares more about Lord Yan." ”

Zong Zhengyu was about to speak, but Empress Zongzheng glared at him fiercely, and Zong Zhengyu had no choice but to suppress the words.

Ji Xuanyuan had already listened to these words when he stood outside the Queen Mother's Palace, and he was already slightly unhappy in his heart, but he also secretly hated An Sui for not knowing how to fight back, so he motioned to Xu Mingchang to report inward, "The emperor has arrived!" ”

The concubines hurriedly got up and saluted, and Ji Xuanyuan also saluted the Queen Mother, "Erchen has seen the Queen Mother!" ”

"Get up!"

Immediately, a eunuch brought a chair and asked Ji Xuanyuan to sit down.

The Queen Mother glanced at An Sui, and she already understood the purpose of the emperor's coming, but the Empress Bisheng asked, "The emperor is busy with court affairs, why do you have time to come here today?" ”

Ji Xuanyuan said to the Queen Mother, "Erchen heard that the Queen Mother wanted to choose some female officials to serve in various palaces, and Erchen originally wanted to go to the Queen's Palace, but I heard that the Queen was also here, so I simply came to take a look." ”

"You're coming quickly!" Empress Dowager Yan obviously pointed out, and her tone was cold and indifferent, "Fang Cai An is optimistic about the two, the emperor might as well take a look for himself!" After all, he wants to stay with the emperor himself. ”

Ji Xuanyuan swept the female officials kneeling on the ground slightly, and knelt on the ground one by one to hold their breath, Ji Xuanyuan was not interested, and glanced at An Sui, but she lowered her eyes slightly, and she couldn't see anything.

Ji Xuanyuan thought about it and didn't argue, "Ah Sui is still not sensible, what can he know, the queen mother has said so, and he has always been a person that the queen mother thinks is appropriate, since it was chosen by the queen mother, the son is also very relieved." ”

The Queen Mother didn't explain, so she nodded along with this, turned her head sideways and said to An Sui, "An Sui, since the emperor also thinks it's good, then you can take it back and teach it well." After all, you are also an old man who has been serving the emperor for a long time, so you have to be a bit of a master of ceremonies, teach them well, and the people around the emperor are the most important. ”

The queen smiled and said, "Queen Mother, Lord An is naturally proper, just looking at the emperor for so many years, the emperor has always praised her." The queen mother can rest assured! ”

Concubine Xian seemed to have heard some joke, covered her mouth and smiled, "The queen is really generous, no wonder the female officials around her can fly on the branches!" ”

Yan Shumao couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh when she heard this, the smile on Empress Zongzheng's face froze, but the Queen Mother frowned, "Shuhua, you have crossed the rules!" ”

Concubine Xian only smiled coldly at the corner of her mouth, but stopped talking.
