Liu Yuan doesn't know Xi Ze very well, and he is very familiar with Sixi, Sixi is the chief manager of Chengguang Palace, the highest ranking among all the servants in the palace, and Liu Yuan can't afford to offend people, although he is strict, but in the end he is here to relieve Liu Yuan, Liu Yuan's heart flashed with gratitude, and he didn't dare to look at Xi Ze anymore, so he hurriedly got up and retreated.

Sixi saw that Liu Yuan had gone away, so he said cautiously to Xi Ze: "The emperor is angry, this Liu Yuan has only been in office for a long time, and he doesn't understand many rules. Teach the minions a lesson, leave it to the minions, don't get your hands dirty! ”

Xi Ze seemed to be angry: "The queen is too good to speak, who is this concubine recommending?" It's more than the previous yellow stewards! I didn't say anything, I just cried poorly, it seems, I am not an honest person! How can such a person be the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs? Is there no one in the palace to use? ”

Sixi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, it's not that Liu Yuan is stingy, it's that prices are really rising, he can't figure out the emperor's temperament, and he accidentally told the truth!" However, he is very responsible for both the queen and the concubines! It's always been a rule! ”

It stands to reason that the position of the housekeeper of the Internal Affairs Office is not Liu Yuan's turn, but he is Cai Concubine's fellow countryman, Cai Concubine promoted him, Cai Concubine raised the six princes and has always been in awe of the Middle Palace, what she said, the queen is willing to consider it, plus Huang Qin also recommended Liu Yuan, so Liu Yuan was promoted!

Liu Yuan is Huang Qin's apprentice, and he is the best at pleasing Huang Qin, and he was raised as a son, but when it comes to being a man, he is not as sophisticated as Huang Qin. However, Huang Qin suppressed the original deputy manager Jiang Yan, just to let himself sit in the position of the head manager and continue to enjoy the blessings, if Jiang Yan is allowed to be the head manager, then I am afraid that there will be no Qingfu for Huang Qin to enjoy in the future!

Sixi accepted Huang Qin's silver, so he would naturally help Liu Yuan speak.

Xi Ze only listened to one sentence, and his eyes lit up: "How many benefits did you receive from Liu Yuan?" ”

This is the naked-naked-naked suspicion, Sixi shook when he heard this, hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said tremblingly: "The slave is on an errand in the Chengguang Palace, Yueyue is holding the silver, where do you dare to accept the benefits of others?" It's just giving the slave a hundred dares, and the slave doesn't dare! ”

Xi Ze smiled coldly: "What kind of face is the person in the palace, I know best, this is the person promoted by the queen, I can't save the queen's face, even if there is any stealing and cheating, as long as it is not too much, I will pass with one eye open and one eye closed, you don't think that the tiger is asleep, right?" ”

These words were close to a threat, and Sixi had no bottom in his heart, and his eyes flickered.

Xi Ze looked straight at Sixi, and said word by word: "Sixi, what is the situation in the palace and outside the palace now, and I don't have to talk to you more, what if prices are soaring?" If I can't get what I want, will I still have a good life for you? It's not that I mean to embarrass you, it's just that I'm living a harder life by myself, if there is a case in Weiyang Palace, I will ask the minions in this palace to come to the funeral together, and I will do what I say! ”

The four were covered in sweat, and hurriedly said: "The emperor can rest assured, the servants know that they will never dare to snub Weiyang Palace!" ”

Xi Ze closed his eyes and said: "I ordered to reduce the number of palaces to half, but Weiyang Palace can't be reduced in the slightest, the carbon fire will be doubled, I have asked Xia to go with the Internal Affairs Office to find silver gray carbon, you send someone to keep an eye on this Liu Yuan, if this errand is not done well, it will not be as simple as removing Liu Yuan's position!" You are also guilty of the same sin as him! ”

Sixi hurriedly kowtowed, and said again and again: "The slave obeys the order, the slave obeys the order, the slave obeys the order!" Let's do it! ”

So saying, he got up and walked out.

Xi Ze suddenly asked, "How much silver gray carbon is left in Weiyang Palace?" ”

Sixi paused, turned around, and replied, "There aren't many left!" ”

Xi Ze said: "Send the remaining half of the basket of Chengguang Hall to Weiyang Palace!" ”

Sixi was shocked when he heard this, but he didn't dare to say more, and hurriedly said: "Yes!" ”

Xi Ze said: "You send it personally, I don't have time to visit the imperial concubine in Weiyang Palace, so you go to see it for me, and come back to report to me carefully!" ”

Sixi hurriedly said: "Yes! ”

Xi Ze reduced the use of each palace, except for the will of Weiyang Palace, which was passed down, and all palaces complained.

The next morning, the middle palace exploded.

Wang Ningxuan sat at the top and looked at the concubines calmly.

Xia Jieyu first said: "This snow keeps falling, the carbon fire in the palace is not enough, and we have to reduce our use, how can we live this day?" The concubine is most afraid of the cold, I heard that this snow will be another month, how can I survive this day? Queen Mother, you can think of a way for your concubines! ”

As soon as her voice fell, Concubine Lan immediately said: "What Sister Xia said is that the carbon fire in the concubine's palace is about to run out, I'm afraid it won't last today, the concubine is raising the four princes, and the four princes are not in good health, if there is no carbon fire, what can I do?" The concubines themselves don't care, but the four princes are the heirs of the emperor, so they can't be lazy! Please also think of a child! ”

The bottom was echoed.

Concubine Cai also said: "The concubine is still raising the six princes, if the usage is halved, won't this day be frozen every day?" Even if the emperor doesn't care about his concubines, he should also take care of the six princes, which are also his own flesh and blood! Can the use of the concubine palace not be reduced? ”

Wang Ningxuan stared at the bottom without saying a word.

However, Shen Luyi answered: "Now that there are disasters in various places, the emperor himself has taken the lead in reducing the use of the Chengguang Palace to half, and there is not much carbon fire available, look at the emperor, what else is there to complain about?" ”

Here, Xia Jieyu said again: "If you want me to say, it is not impossible for the emperor to reduce the amount of money in the palace and save money for political affairs, but how can the emperor treat it unfairly?" All palaces have been reduced, but Weiyang Palace is an exception, everyone is the same concubine, how can the treatment be so different, why does the emperor only think about Weiyang Palace, why doesn't he care about us? ”

As soon as this statement came out, there were more complaints.

Shen Luyi also felt a headache, but she looked at Wang Ningxuan's face, which was also very bad. Just as she was about to speak, Yang Meiren over there said sourly: "The imperial concubine is raising two princes, naturally golden, the emperor has even reduced the use of the middle palace, the queen mother didn't say anything, don't talk so much, the emperor loves the imperial concubine, no one can compare, you save your energy!" Useful would be good! ”

This is deliberately provoking trouble, this Yang beauty has never been favored, and her position is not high, the carbon fire in her palace has long been used up, and no one has sent it to her, even if she comes to the middle palace, it may not have much effect, the carbon fire is nervous, Wang Ningxuan has no way to take care of all the people, which concubine has not complained?
