"You ......" Luo Xinfang was about to ask, but found that although he had saved the waiter that day, he didn't know the name of the little waiter, and he couldn't help but be speechless for a while.

Seeing that Luo Xinfang's face seemed to be embarrassed, the chamberlain said, "The slave is named Xiao Yunzi." ”

"Little Yunzi. If Bengong remembers correctly, after saving you that day, Bengong seems to have asked Gonggong Fu to find an errand for you. Why are you here, and so embarrassed? Luo Xinfang said and glanced at the hideous scar between Xiao Yunzi's eyebrows.

Xiao Yunzi lowered her head, as if trying to hide the ugly scar.

"Back to Niangniang's words, the grace of Niangniang's life-saving that day, the slave is unforgettable, and has always wanted to find an opportunity to repay Niangniang. A few days ago, the slave got the news from Gonggong Fu, and the inner court wanted to send people into the palaces to serve the newly canonized mothers, so he begged Gonggong Fu to send the slave to the Shangyi Bureau. ”

Luo Xinfang pointed to Xiao Yunzi's eyebrows and said, "Then how did this scar come about?" ”

Xiao Yunzi subconsciously raised her hand to cover her forehead, and replied in a low voice: "If you go back to Niangniang, this scar was made by the slave himself." ”

"Did Gong Fu teach you too?" Luo Xinfang raised her eyebrows and asked.

Xiao Yunzi looked at Luo Xinfang with a hint of admiration in his eyes, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Niangniang is wise, she really can't hide anything from Niangniang." ”

When Luo Xinfang entered the palace, she was given the position of a noble concubine, and the grade of the third grade seems to be very high among the concubines, but there are also many noble girls with higher status than her.

The Shangyi Bureau naturally sent people according to the rules, and it was impossible to go over the high-ranking concubines to give away the low-ranking concubines first.

Xiao Yunzi didn't look like before she broke her appearance, she had seen it.

Thick eyebrows and big eyes, red lips and white teeth. After all, he is a person who has been looked down upon by the great eunuch, and among the many servants, Xiao Yunzi's face can be regarded as one in a hundred.

Who wouldn't want to leave someone who looks pleasing to the eye by their side?

If Xiao Yunzi hadn't ruined her appearance, I'm afraid she would have been picked away by those palace concubines with higher rankings than her.

Luo Xinfang said regretfully: "You don't have to be like this. You have extraordinary qualifications, and following other masters may have a better way out than following this palace. If you ruin your own appearance, will you not cut yourself off? ”

Xiao Yunzi lifted his robe when he heard this, and knelt down to Luo Xinfang.

"Niangniang, since the day you rescued the slave in Chuxiu Palace, you have been the only master in the heart of the slave. When the slave is in prison, there are countless people who watch coldly, only the mother is upright, and the slave is saved from fire and water. Although the minion is like a mayfly and insignificant, if the mother needs a minion, even if she goes up the knife mountain and goes down to the sea of fire, the minion has no hesitation. ”

Luo Xinfang was shocked by Xiao Yunzi's words.

She was not moved by Xiao Yunzi's sincerity, she was surprised that a chamberlain could say such brilliant words, and with this eloquence, it was more than enough for him to go to the teahouse in Youzhou City to be a storyteller.

"Yoko-chan."

"The minions are here."

Luo Xinfang looked up and down at the kneeling people in front of him, and asked, "What did you do before entering the palace?" ”

Xiao Yunzi lowered her head and quickly removed the strange look in her eyes.

"Back to Niangniang, the slave was originally the son of a criminal minister."

Son of a Guilty Minister......

No wonder he always thinks that this little Yunzi is not like that ordinary slave, and his temperament looks like a literati.

Luo Xinfang was curious: "What was your original name?" ”

Xiao Yunzi knelt on the ground and replied respectfully: "The slave wears a sinful body, a cheap name, and he is afraid of polluting his mother's ears if he says it." ”

Luo Xinfang waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "It's okay, this palace wants you to say it, you just have to say it, don't mind." ”

Xiao Yunzi paused before replying: "The slave is named Jiang Siting." The father of the crime was the former Dali Siqing, who was beheaded for the crime of greedy ink, which affected his relatives, and his children were sent to the court as slaves. ”

Luo Xinfang was stunned when she heard this.

The name of Jiang Yan, the former Qing of Dali Temple, she had heard of it.

Jiang Yan has been an official for several years, has always handled cases impartially, and has never bent the law for personal gain, and the people have always praised him.

When the new emperor Xiao Ye first ascended to the throne, he ordered a thorough investigation of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and severely punished them.

When Jiang Ping, the secretary of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, was the old man of the princelings when the new emperor had not yet ascended the throne, and the new emperor ascended the throne to kill a few corrupt officials, he naturally spared no effort to do what he was told.

Gongzhou was supposed to be a rich land due to its open terrain and fertile soil, but because of its location on the southwestern border, it was often harassed by Tartars.

It has not been a day or two for the Tartars to covet the land of Gongzhou, and Gongzhou is garrisoned by the army of the imperial court, and it is common for the two armies to meet each other.

The Yan army is well-equipped, and the Tartars do not dare to fight with the Yan army, and this battle is usually thunder and rain, and in the end it has become a topic of conversation among the people after tea and dinner.

The Gongzhou Army, under the command of Wei Feng, the old general of Wei, defeated the Tartars one after another, and it can be said that they are invincible.

However, in the thirty-seven years of the Shuntong reign of the Great Yan, this undefeated army with a hundred victories suffered a defeat in the hands of the Tartars, and Gongzhou was almost broken because of this.

In the winter of the 37th year of the reign of the Great Yan Shuntong, the north wind howled, the snow fell, and Gongzhou suffered a snow disaster that had not been seen in a century.

The blizzard cut off the grain and grass transportation route between the imperial court and Gongzhou, causing the front line to be tight.

And the Tartars saw the opportunity, changed their usual coping style, and mobilized elite cavalry under the city of Lingongzhou, which was menacing.

At that time, the first emperor was already seriously ill, if it weren't for the precious medicinal materials like flowing water to hang his life, maybe he would have reported to his ancestors and ancestors about his achievements over the years.

The emperor was seriously ill, the crown prince was in charge of the country, the Gongzhou blizzard, and the Tartars were coming, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that the thriving Great Yan Dynasty was facing unprecedented challenges at this time.

The whole country is watching the battle of Gongzhou, and the nobles and civilians alike are desperately in need of a victory.

If the Gongzhou army wins, it will not only determine the will of the army, but also the will of the people.

It's just that no one expected that the invincible General Wei would be defeated at the most urgent time.

After the defeat of General Wei, he immediately put on a plea for guilt, in which he denounced the officials who escorted the grain and grass for their unfavorable affairs, so that the fighter plane was delayed, and tens of thousands of soldiers gave their lives in such an unknown way, asking His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to severely punish the grain and grass escort officers.

At the same time, he asked the crown prince to remove himself from the post of auxiliary general, and let him be appointed.

The grain and grass escort officers are subordinate to the household department, and the household officials are all members of the princeling faction.

Now it is an eventful season, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty can see that General Wei's move is clearly to coerce the prince to punish the grain and grass escort officer.

And the identity of the grain and grass escort officer He Shu is very special, he is not only the son of the household servant, but also the prince's companion when he was young.

If Xiao Ye disposes of anything, it will inevitably chill the hearts of the prince's family. If you don't deal with it, then the princes who have been eyeing the throne will immediately make a big fuss about it.

No matter how the prince handles this matter, the princelings will definitely be greatly damaged.

It's just that no one expected that when some people's calculations were shocking, He Shu, the grain and grass escort officer, would commit suicide in fear of crime.

Later, He Mu, the head of the household, also asked for exile, and the situation instantly fell to the princelings.

He Shu was dead, and the grain and grass were also transported to Gongzhou, so Wei Feng naturally had no reason to resign, and the Yan army won a complete victory in the second battle.

The new emperor died, the crown prince ascended the throne, and the Yan Kingdom became more and more prosperous.

Everyone has forgotten the death of the prince's companion, but the Shangshu of the Criminal Department has reopened the case in the name of thoroughly investigating corrupt officials.

It turned out that the Gongzhou grain draft involved a number of officials who took advantage of their official positions to embezzle military salaries, resulting in the detention of grain and grass, and He Shu's death.

The most interesting thing is that this involves the list of officials who are greedy for ink, as well as the people promoted by General Wei.

After the East Window incident, Wei Feng took the blame and resigned, relieved himself and returned to the field, the new emperor remembered Wei Feng's hard work, and did not dispose of Wei Feng, but only disposed of a group of officials who were directly involved in the corruption of ink.

And the person who was convicted of He Shu, the grain and grass escort officer, and sentenced He Miao, the head of the household department, to be exiled was Jiang Yan, the former secretary of Dali Temple.

Jiang Yan's reputation throughout his life was ruined by the "Gongzhou Case".

If Jiang Yan had not been involved in the Gongzhou case, Jiang Siting would still be a noble son of an official family, perhaps he would have entered the court as an official, married a wife and had children, and lived a happy life.

It's a pity that there is no if.

Thinking of this, Luo Xinfang sighed.

"Who gave you the name Xiao Yunzi?"

Xiao Yunzi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she replied: "Hui Niangniang's words were made by Gonggong Guo of Shangyi Bureau as a slave when the slave first entered the court. Guo Gonggong said that the slave has long been registered as a lowly person, and what kind of person should use what kind of name. ”

What kind of person should be called what kind of name?

Luo Xinfang could imagine that what Guo Gonggong said at the beginning must have been thousands of times more difficult to hear than what Xiao Yunzi had just retelled.

It's really a fluffy phoenix that's not as good as a chicken.

Luo Xinfang grimaced.

"Oh, yes. Bengong thinks that the name Xiao Yunzi is too cheesy. ”

Xiao Yunzi knelt to the ground when she heard this, and said respectfully: "Please give the name of the mother." ”

Luo Xinfang smiled: "Changting." Hongu thinks it's a good name. From now on, you will be called Changting. ”

I also hope that you will uphold your original intention, don't be self-contemptuous, and never forget that you were also a famous son who saw all the Chang'an flowers in one day, Jiang Siting.

Long Pavilion.

Hearing this name, the body of the person lying on the ground trembled slightly.

Since he was convicted of beating the Jiang family and he entered the court, there have been countless people who have bullied and humiliated him, and everyone has been scolding him and belittling him.

He lost everything, and all that was left was resentment.

And now, someone finally told him that he was not the chamberlain Xiao Yunzi who was bullied, he was born as a human being, named Jiang Siting.

Changting solemnly kowtowed to Luo Xinfang, and said slowly: "Yes, Changting Xie Niangniang gave the name." Changting made a poisonous oath here, only loyal to Niangniang in this life, Niangniang's blade pointed, even if it was Longtan Tiger's Den, Changting would never give up. If Changting violates his oath, he will let Changting expose his body and die, and he will never recover. ”

The corpse was exposed and died, and there was no recovery. How much enmity is there?

"You're not afraid of death?" Luo Xinfang raised her eyebrows.

Changting straightened his upper body, and said with blazing eyes: "The man does not hesitate to die, and he will break his courage and taste with you." ”

Luo Xinfang couldn't help but feel even more sorry when she heard this.

If the Jiang family had not been convicted, it would have been easy for Jiang Siting to seek a position in the court with Jiang Siting's literary brilliance.

"Okay, this palace saved your life, but it didn't want you to die, you go down first."

Changting stood up and replied, "Yes, slave but according to Niangniang's orders." ”

"Wait. In the future, in front of this palace, you don't have to call yourself a slave. Don't live up to the good name given to you by this palace. Luo Xinfang said lightly.

Ever since he knew Jiang Siting's life experience, and then heard him call himself a slave, Luo Xinfang always felt a little weird.

"Yes, Changting obeys." Changting saluted Luo Xinfang and withdrew from the Yuanling Palace.
