Chapter 171: Fate is in my hands

The matter was a foregone conclusion, and all the female officials of the medical department finally concluded that Zhirong's right arm was invalid, and reported the results to the consul general, Shang Gong, only to wait for the female officials to sign the certificate. In everyone's opinion, Zhirong's expulsion is a foregone conclusion, and the palace maids serving in the courtyard are not as diligent as before, and all the work is done by Chunhua and Xia Jin.

Zhirong, on the other hand, trains her left hand day and night. Yanhua's letter gave her the greatest encouragement, she didn't believe that her efforts would be in vain, and she would never admit defeat or fate.

In the Buddhist hall in the Shanggong Bureau, Wei Ting was kneeling in front of the Buddha, she didn't want to see the scene of Zhirong being expelled, it was the torment of burning her heart. "Buddha, you are merciful and compassionate to give Zhirong a good place to go, and may she marry a good family. The believer knew that she was guilty and did not dare to ask the Buddha for forgiveness, but begged to repay it with her life. ”

With a creak, the door of the Buddha Hall was opened, and the person who walked in was Wei Shanggong. She looked for Wei Ting everywhere but saw no one, I heard that she came to the Buddha Hall and came over, and the Consulate General Shang Gong was still waiting for Wei Ting's signature, and after she signed, Zhirong was completely diagnosed as disabled.

"Ting'er, everyone is waiting for you, why did you come here?" Not in front of outsiders, Wei Shanggong called his niece's name.

Wei Ting turned around and burst into tears in an instant: "Auntie, is Zhirong about to be expelled?" It's all my fault! ”

Wei Shanggong thought that she said this because of her deep sisterhood, and stepped forward to comfort: "Silly boy, you have experienced a lot over the years, people have their own lives, you have done your best, this is her life." ”

"Auntie, does everyone have selfish desires?" Wei Ting was even more sad: "If you do something to hurt others for your own selfish desires, is it a great crime?" ”

"Nature has selfish desires, and if you have to hurt others to achieve your goals, then it is not necessarily wrong." Wei Shanggong patted her on the back and hugged her in his arms. She has never married in her life, and this niece is treated as her own daughter.

"Not wrong?"

Wei Shanggong nodded and wiped his tears for Wei Ting: "Ting'er, you have entered the Shanggong Bureau since you were a child, and you have seen a lot of jealousy and intrigue in the harem, women." What's wrong with fighting for the sake of the family, for the future of yourself and your children? Being in the palace is involuntarily, even within the family. ”

Wei Ting asked in a trembling voice again, "What if it's your good sister?" ”

"How can there be real sisters in this palace, every day my sisters and sisters scream behind their backs, but I don't know how many stumbling blocks, I have also experienced these. Ting'er. Are you because of Zhirong? It's not your fault that she's disabled. You're just too kind, and you take everything on yourself. ”

Wei Ting didn't speak but sighed deeply, it turned out that she still didn't dare to say it, she didn't even dare to say that kind of thing, so how could she dare to say it to Zhirong. Pray for her forgiveness.

The main hall of the Shanggong Bureau was full of people from the six bureaus, and all the cultivators, they were all waiting for Wei Ting to appear. Qiu Manhua drank tea leisurely and smiled mockingly at Zhirong. Then she looked no more, and the ants were no longer worthy of her eyes.

Zhirong also felt her gaze, but pretended not to see it, she didn't want to bother with such a person. Today is one of the most important things in her life, and she is waiting.

"The Commander-in-Chief Shanggong is late, please forgive your sins." Wei Ting walked in and saluted Pushang Palace.

Pu Shanggong nodded: "Get up, it's up to you to sign alone." ”

Wei Ting nodded. He walked to the table in Pushang Palace, picked up the pen, took a deep breath, and signed his name. She didn't dare to look at Zhirong from the time she came in to signing, she was afraid of seeing her sister's complaining eyes.

However, if she turned around, she could see Zhirong's calm expression, and Zhirong, who had already accepted the result, would not blame her at all.

"Since Bai Zhirong's right arm is disabled, he can't stay in the Shang Palace Bureau, Lord Shang Gong, the Commander-in-Chief, please decide." Li Shanggong bowed to Pushang Palace.

Yubi walked up at this time and bowed his head and said: "My lord, whether to go or stay, please think twice, Bai Xiu can't use his right hand at this time, it doesn't mean that he can't be healed in the future." ”

Zhong Shanggong sneered: "What does Yubi Shanggong mean that our Shanggong Bureau wants to raise a waste person for nothing?" Commander-in-Chief, Lord Shanggong, we Shanggong Bureau, have not had any idle meals since the beginning of the dynasty. Please decide. ”

"Lord Jade, you are selfish." Li Shanggong added.

And Wu Shanggong retorted: "Lord Li, do you also have selfish intentions? Whether to expel Bai Zhirong is the decision of the Commander-in-Chief Shang Gong. You have repeatedly emphasized here that you have exceeded the rules. ”

As soon as Li Shanggong heard this, he immediately saluted to Pushang Palace: "Your Excellency has no intention of exceeding the rules, but for the sake of the majesty of the Shanggong Bureau, if you don't expel Bai Zhirong today." So all the people who broke his arms and legs every day entered the Shanggong Bureau, wouldn't it be a big mess? What's more, Bai Zhirong's eyes are still a little blurry. The lower officials also love talents, but they can't stay. ”

Yubi wanted to refute again, but was stopped by Pushang Palace.

"Although Li Shanggong's words are fierce but not unreasonable, my Shanggong Bureau has never raised idlers, and Bai Zhirong has been in class for a month, and she has fallen behind. And her physical condition could no longer continue embroidery, let alone take the final exam. ”

Yubi was unwilling, she couldn't let Zhirong be expelled like this: "My lord, please give Bai Zhirong a while longer!" ”

However, the Pushang Palace has made up its mind; "Bai Zhirong comes forward!"

Zhirong stepped forward and knelt down, bowing despite the fact that her right arm could not move. She vaguely heard someone behind her laughing at her kneeling posture. I snorted coldly in my heart, and I didn't care at all. Disabled but strong-willed, this is her current spirit.

"Bai Zhirong, your right arm is disabled, your eyes are blurry, you can't continue embroidering, and go home. The Shanggong Bureau will give you some money to count as a dowry in the future, and the two concubines will also give you a reward. ”

Compensate? Reward? For the people in the palace, it's just to send her.

"You're not going to get your life?" Li Shanggong shouted.

Zhirong raised his head and said loudly: "Lord Shanggong, the Commander-in-Chief, please forgive the students for being rude and unable to receive orders!" The students are reluctant to leave the Shanggong Bureau, and the students are not idlers. Students can embroider, they can take exams! ”

What the? The students below almost burst into laughter, and it was a big joke that they wanted to embroider when they were crippled. At this time, he still refuses to leave, is it because he wants to rely on more silver?

Pu Shanggong also thought that she was like this because she was hit, so she didn't care: "Get up, I know you can't accept it for a while after being hit, but it's a foregone conclusion, let's go back." She had also heard that Zhirong was practicing her left hand, but it seemed to her that it was impossible. There are only two embroidery myths in the Shanggong Bureau, that is, Shanggong Shen Zhihua, the general leader of the founding Shanggong Bureau, and Shanggong Xia Yunsheng, the former general of the current dynasty.

It is said that Shen Zhihua could embroider with both hands and feet, or with one hand and one foot, or even with just one mouth. She excelled in her skills and wrote a book about what she had learned. She was the best sister of the Founding Empress and the sweetheart of the Founding Emperor, but because she did not want to leave the palace for her concubine, she disappeared from the book.

So far, no one has surpassed Shen Zhihua. Pushang Palace has seen embroidery from all dynasties in the Tongbao Pavilion of the Shang Palace Bureau, among which Shen Zhihua's is the most exquisite, no one can compare, even Xia Yunsheng, who was called a genius at the beginning, is not comparable to her.

"Commander-in-Chief Shanggong, the students really want to give it a try. I hope you give me a chance! Zhirong kowtowed and said firmly: "If I don't even have such a chance, I won't have the shame to go back, only death!" ”

At this time, don't say cruel words, but wait for a while.

Zhirong's firm tone and eyes also made Pu Shanggong a little moved, a girl who became disabled and returned to the family may even become a problem with marriage, no wonder she has to insist so much.

"My lord, since the establishment of the Shang Palace Bureau, there have been no disabled people left, this is not in accordance with the rules!" Li Shanggong is very good at observing words and feelings, and when he saw that Pushang Palace was shaking, he hurriedly added fire.

And Yubi also seized the opportunity at this time and said with a smile: "Li Shanggong's words are wrong, since the founding of the country, the Shanggong Bureau will recruit people with both virtue and integrity." If this child can really embroider, wouldn't it be that we have more talents in the Shanggong Bureau, and how could adults give up any of them if they love talents? ”

"Hmph, Yushang Palace, I think you are partial to this girl, who doesn't know that you have an unusual relationship with her, I heard that you had to accept her as a disciple at the beginning, and now what you say is simply favoritism!" Murong Shanggong didn't want to give Yubi and Zhirong any chances.

Yubi turned her head slightly and glanced at Wen Xin deeply, and the other party quickly lowered her head after touching her eyes. Yubi sighed, and her heart was so strong. always wished that she was her only apprentice, so she would always regard Zhirong as an enemy. And she actually told her opponent about this in order to get rid of Zhirong, which made Yubi very disappointed.

"Commander-in-Chief Shanggong, ladies and gentlemen, the students have a question." Everyone followed the sound and looked, and at this time, Zhirong actually spoke.

Pu Shanggong nodded: "You can talk about it." ”

"Wei Shang Palace. May I ask if there is any written law in the Jingtang Shanggong Bureau, that disabled people are not allowed to enter the Shanggong Bureau and are not allowed to take the exam? Zhirong saluted Wei Shanggong, and the words were clear without the slightest hint of fear.

Wei Shanggong was stunned, she thought for a while: "There is indeed none, but there is one rule, if it cannot be used by the Shanggong Bureau or those who have no talent, they will be expelled from the Shanggong Bureau." ”

"Master Xie will solve my doubts." Zhirong turned to Pu Shang Palace and said loudly: "Lord Shang Gong, the Commander-in-Chief." The canonical law only says that those who are incompetent or cannot work for the Shanggong Bureau will be expelled, but it does not mean that people with disabilities will be expelled from the palace. ”

Pu Shanggong thought for a while, as if what this girl said also made sense: "What you said also makes sense, but you can't move your right hand and your eyes are blurry, are you a talented person or a useful person?" ”

Zhirong smiled and said confidently: "The students think it's all." ”

The students below snickered again.

"She's crazy, she's not as good as a sprinkling palace maid in her appearance."

"Not to mention that the palace maids are not qualified to serve the concubines in the cold palace."

"It's really overwhelming, she's still struggling at this time, Manhua, I think she's really crazy." It was Xu Ping who said this.

Qiu Manhua just sneered and didn't take Zhirong's words seriously at all, she didn't care if she could make a difference in the Shanggong Bureau, she was the young lady of the Zuo Xiangfu and the future princess of Ming, so it was not uncommon to find a job in the Shanggong Bureau, and Zhirong was just a plaything she used casually, and now she couldn't wait to throw it away.

In the face of everyone's ridicule, Zhirong was still calm: "Students can also embroider, these days of recuperation, students have practiced left and right embroidery, and as long as the distance is closer, you can see clearly." So students can embroider embroidery. ”

She bites the words clearly, her voice is loud, and there is an inexplicable and convincing confidence in her firmness. Some students even thought that she might not be talking big at this time.

"Zhirong, don't be reckless." Wei Ting was very worried about her at this time, and if the Commander-in-Chief Shang Gong really let her embroider, then there would be a big problem. Not only will he not be able to receive the silver given by the Shang Gong Bureau, but he will also be considered disrespectful by the Shang Gong Lord. Of course, it cannot be denied that she still has selfish intentions.

Zhirong was grateful for her reminder and gave her a comforting smile, but her fate had to be in her own hands, and she couldn't give up this opportunity. "Lord Shangmiya, please let the students give it a try, and ask the adults to come up with the questions."

"Bai Zhirong, do you know that if you can't embroider, you will be disrespectful and will be punished by the Ming Law Department, and you will be expelled if you can't get a penny of silver, so you have to try?" Pushang Palace also wanted to give her a chance to change her mind.

Zhirong nodded heavily: "The student is willing, even if the student is punished, he is willing!" Adults are invited to ask questions. Her chest was already on fire.

Yubi stepped forward and said in a somewhat choked tone: "Adult, just give this poor child a chance!" "Pu Shanggong is the most soft-hearted person, and only by impressing her with affection will Zhirong have a better chance.

"Okay, then I'll give you the question." Pu Shanggong sighed, this girl's idea is very right, since this is the case, she will give it a chance. And she also has some expectations, I don't know what Zhirong will embroider.

Pu Shang Gong considered that Zhirong's new entry into the Shang Palace Bureau was still short, so she came up with a suitable topic for practice, and she originally planned to use it for the students who wanted to enter the embroidery department after a few days of preliminary exams.

Zhirong got up with difficulty, and a palace maid brought a stool, asked her to sit down, prepared the tools and smiled at her, and that smile was no longer the previous contempt but a little admiration.

She has just won the battle for her destiny and has already moved some people, and she needs not only talent but also an unwavering belief in the Shanggong Bureau.

Zhirong sat firmly, took a deep breath, and gently picked up the embroidery needle with his left hand, and his fate was on this left hand at this time. Mother, Master, bless me!

At the beginning, Zhirong's embroidery was not smooth, although the distance was close, but the eyes were still blurry, and there were always mistakes. Her palms also began to break out in cold sweat, she used to embroider with her left hand and could use her right hand to help, but at this time she was relying on her mouth to change the needle, which was really difficult.

However, she couldn't give up, and there was only one belief in her heart, persistence. With some essentials of left-handed embroidery in the embroidery book, I took a deep breath and picked up the needle again.

Just when everyone thought she was going to give up, they saw that she was becoming more and more proficient in embroidery, her mouth completely replaced her right hand, and her left hand was born for embroidery, and the embroidery needle seemed to grow in her hand. Just by that technique and that tenacity, she has succeeded. (To be continued.) )
