Concubine An was already gentle in temperament, and she responded meekly, and was carried down by the imperial doctor and the chamberlain.

But Chu Feifei looked in the direction of An Concubine, and there was a trace of doubt in his heart. I don't know if it's her delusion, she felt that An Concubine glanced at her casually the moment she turned the direction of the couch, and that glance made Chu Feifei feel a chill all over her body.

By the time Chu Feifei looked at it carefully, Concubine An had already recovered her weak appearance and was carried down.

The sixth prince noticed Chu Feifei staring at that An Concubine, and said softly, "What's wrong?" ”

Chu Feifei shook his head in confusion: "I don't know, but I think it's dangerous, that An Concubine, it feels like it's dangerous."

The sixth prince was thoughtful.

At this time, the emperor said in a pretending relaxed tone: "Although there are some twists and turns in today's flower god meeting, it can be regarded as a successful end. ”

All the ministers lowered their eyes and listened to the emperor open his eyes and tell nonsense.

The emperor coughed lightly: "This time's show girl, each Zhong is sensitive and wise, I think it is very good, among them, Fang Xueqing reported that Zhang Pearl was meritorious, and the poems and essays made were also very outstanding. ”

Fang Xueqing walked out of the queue and knelt down to thank the emperor.

When he raised his head, the emperor and Fang Xueqing glanced at each other, one with condescending playfulness, and the other with unruly provocation. Chu Feifei watched it from the side, and sneered in his heart, now the palace is going to be lively. I thought about it again, but fortunately, since Fang Xueqing entered the deep palace, it has nothing to do with her, and I am afraid that there will be no chance to see her again in the future. Thinking of this, Chu Feifei's mood improved again.

The emperor also sealed several other show girls, among which Su Shuiyun sealed the four-grade Zhaoyi, Zhu Lanjun sealed the five-grade Zhaorong, and the remaining nobles and beauties also sealed a bunch.

In the end, except for Fang Xueqing, who was the highest-ranking Jieyu among the show girls, she was the only one with a title. These three grades of Jieyu are only one level lower than the nine concubines, and once the title is added, they are only a little lower than the nine concubines.

Those concubines under the jade steps. suddenly felt a sense of crisis, and her eyes looking at Fang Xueqing became more vigilant.

It's a pity that Fang Xueqing didn't take them in her eyes at all, and Fang Xueqing ignored all the eye knives that flew over such concubines. I don't even have a look in return.

At this time, the emperor said: "Today, Concubine Hui and Concubine An's palace maids have accidents one after another, which shows that my harem rules are becoming more and more loose, I have no plans to establish a future for the time being, and the queen mother is not in good health, I can't bear to disturb her old man with such a trivial matter." Therefore, I decided to re-establish the Shang Palace. ”

Shanggong is the highest official position of a female official in the inner palace. There are all dynasties, usually five products, this dynasty because of the establishment of the dynasty on the palace carried out a big purge, the original grade of female officials have not escaped a catastrophe, the new palace maid and lack of experience, so the position of the palace exists in name only.

At this time, the emperor mentioned the re-establishment of the Shang Palace, and all the ministers echoed it. A small Shang Palace, they haven't taken it into their eyes yet, no matter who the emperor appoints, as long as they have this position. In the end, you can always change to your own people.

The emperor glanced at the ministers below, smiled slightly, and changed his words: "I thought, since I want to reset the Shang Palace and rectify the Inner Palace, the power of this Shang Palace cannot be too small, so the Shang Palace I plan to set up is the six Shang Palaces, which govern the harem, and the grade is the same as the three dukes!" ”

The first-class members who were still nodding froze as they all froze. What is a product of Shang Palace? Still the same as the three princes? Isn't that in addition to Taifu, Taishi, and Taibao, there are six more Shanggongs in the court? ?

And since it's Shang Gong. In charge of the inner palace, it must be a woman, this woman who is a first-class minister, except for the Empress Taizu of this dynasty, who was named the general of Shenwu and is a first-class person, there has never been a woman who can be a first-class minister in the past five hundred years.

At this moment, the emperor mentioned this matter at this flower god meeting. There is a quick-witted one, who has secretly guessed that the candidates of the Shang Palace are secretly sighing in their hearts, although this matter is a little overdone, but it can't be refuted in the end. Who let the man hold the income of the treasury in his hands?

The emperor's words fell for a long time, and the hall was quiet.

The corner of the emperor's mouth pursed a sneer: "Why do you have any opinions?" ”

At this time, Zhang Zhicheng of the household department Shangshu came out and said: "The minister thinks that the idea of resetting the six Shang Palaces and rectifying the inner palace is very good, as for the grade, if it is lower than the level of the ladies in this harem, it is not easy to manage." The minister felt that a product of Shang Palace was very suitable. ”

Xia Xiangguo also came out at this time and said: "The old minister also thinks that in the inner palace, the middle palace is still lacking, and he really needs the help of female officials to rectify the management, and the matter of Yipin Shanggong is very appropriate." ”

Changyu Shi Lu Yizhao and Lord Shangshu Wang of the Ministry of Rites stepped forward one after another to express their approval.

The sixth prince smiled slightly, these people have all benefited from this girl, and they came out to express their stance at this time, which can be regarded as people who understand.

Since two of the six Shangshu have already agreed, and Xia Xiangguo represents the other half, the establishment of the Shang Palace can be set in stone.

The emperor was satisfied, but pretended to be modest and asked Qiao Ge Lao: "Master Qiao, what do you see?" ”

As one of the three dukes, Qiao Ge naturally did not want a female official in the inner palace to have the same status as him, but looking at the posture of the palace, the six departments with real power had already agreed, and the most powerful opponent of the Yushitai had already stated that it was meaningless for him to jump out and oppose it at this time.

Although he was unhappy in his heart, he could only say: "What the emperor said is reasonable, but I don't know who the emperor wants?" This female official is not trivial, and the inner palace is empty in the middle palace, and the candidates for these six Shang Palaces must be cautious. ”

The emperor nodded and smiled: "Yes, do you have anyone to recommend?" ”

All the courtiers secretly said in their hearts, they are all here, and they have to wait for us to say it, Your Majesty, you are too hypocritical.

At this time, it was not easy for Xia Xiangguo to come forward, because Chu Feifei was originally from the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he wanted to avoid suspicion. And the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, and the Yushitai are also obviously benefited by Chu Feifei, and it is not appropriate to come out to nominate them.

Xia Xiangguo's heart turned, and he was about to give the Criminal Department Shangshu a look, and he would nominate him.

Who knew that Wu Yi, the commander of the forbidden army who had been standing by the palace and did not speak, stood up and said: "Your Majesty, there is a candidate for the minister." ”

The emperor was slightly surprised, this Wu Yi was usually silent, and he looked upright, but he didn't expect that he would take the initiative to play today. It's just that his so-called candidate, whether it is the one he thinks in his heart, is really hard to say.

The emperor tasted with a hint of excitement: "It's rare that the commander of the forbidden army is also selected, let's hear about it." ”

Wu Yi, the commander of the forbidden army, said word by word: "Your Majesty, I have recommended Shao Feifei, the undertaker of this flower god meeting!" (To be continued.) )
