What happened in the court is always a topic that the people talk about, no, from the family members in the hundred official mansions to the idlers in the teahouse and tavern, they changed direction in a blink of an eye. Some ridiculed Li Laixi, who lost his life because of his mouth, and some regretted the bad luck of the third prince, but more of them talked about the seventh prince who seemed to have been favored by the emperor overnight.

Concubine Yu's son won the lottery, He Furong was naturally not happy, and he made a trip to bite the gold halfway, and the sudden variables made him a little more vigilant about that woman. Originally, the loss of power of the three princes was a great joy for his own family, but the emperor was deceived by the words of his son, not only did not investigate the fault of Concubine Degui and the three princes, but also issued an order to soothe, which was simply putting the cart before the horse, and he could only watch the great opportunity fly away in vain. After hearing that the queen got the news, she broke three precious vases in the palace one after another, and of course, the strange flowers and plants that Xiyi paid tribute to in the palace also suffered.

Alas, people are not as good as heaven, He Furong sighed. "He Gui, He Gui! Where have all the people died, and there was not even a response! He shouted impatiently, these subordinates in the house are becoming more and more unruly, and when they see that they have a bad temperament, like a mouse seeing a cat, they hide away one by one. If he really loses his position, they are not all looking for another branch, thinking of this, a trace of ruthlessness inadvertently appeared in his eyes, if so, he may not have a bastard who eats inside and outside now.

The housekeeper He Gui has been in the He family for forty-two years, he is a slave of the family, he has accompanied He Furong to study since he was a child, followed him out, returned to Beijing, and stayed up for so many years, only then did he force the old and old housekeeper He Shun to step down and sit in the position of the housekeeper of the He Mansion. However, he also knows that over the years, his master's temper has become bigger and bigger, and it is not uncommon for him to beat and scold his subordinates at every turn, and it is not uncommon for him to beat people to death with a big stick. Therefore, he came in response, and when he saw that his master's face was not good, he stood with his hands down in an orderly manner, and did not dare to say a word.

"He Gui, in the past few years, you have been in charge of the house's internal affairs, and these small minions have become more and more presumptuous, not to mention stealing chickens and touching dogs, but there are also fat and thin people who pick fat and thin when they take over errands, how did you set up this rule?" He Furong's voice was not loud, but it looked particularly terrifying in this room.

He Gui only felt a tremor in his heart, although the master had been thinking about his love when he was a child, but the mind of the big man was unpredictable, he was always wary of the day when he became a punching bag, but he didn't expect this moment to come so quickly. "Back to the master, although the slave is a housekeeper, there are hundreds of domestic slaves in the front yard and backyard, some of them are the wife's companions, some are relatives of aunts and grandmothers, and some are old people who have worked for several lifetimes, and they are more difficult to discipline than ordinary slaves on weekdays. The messenger handed over by the master, although the slave does not dare to slack off, but he does not dare to manage it ruthlessly, if the master thinks it is inappropriate, the slave will rectify the housework for you from tomorrow! He Gui looked at his master's face as he spoke.

He Furong just waved his hand lightly, even if he had a lot of dissatisfaction with this He Gui, who had been with him for decades, but only for the point of loyalty, he didn't bother to care so much. "Forget it, these minions have lived so many peaceful days, and they are all slippery. He Gui, from tomorrow onwards, you will give me a little money every day, send messengers, I am really idle, and I will be driven out of a few useless people. Kill chickens and show monkeys, I don't need these sycophants who can only flatter! As he spoke, He Furong's face was a little murderous, "In addition, if you are not convinced, or rely on the power of your aunt and grandmother in the backyard to suppress you, you can go and ask your wife, I believe she will call the shots for you!" ”

He Gui's cold sweat covered his forehead, his wife has always valued her intimate person in front of the master, which is known to everyone up and down the He Mansion, and several aunts and grandmothers naturally covet their position as the housekeeper of the He Mansion for their brothers or relatives, so how can the wife not make decisions for herself? But in this case, the people he offended would be in the sea, and he couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart. Despite this, He Gui still respectfully agreed, the master's words are the golden rule, no matter how stupid he is, he will never forget this.

"Also, from Ming'er onwards, you pick a few clever people, say hello to those people in the dark in the capital, and stare someone to death for me." He Furong stopped He Gui, who was about to retreat, and continued to instruct, "As long as he leaves the palace, I will know his every move." I want to see, what kind of medicine is sold in his gourd? ”

"Master, the minion dares to ask, I don't know who is so important that you bother so much, master?" He Gui asked cautiously. He hadn't seen his master gritting his teeth for a long time, and he couldn't figure out how to rely on the queen's mother, a big backer, and Lord He, who was calling for wind and rain in the court, would also use this method like a gangster in the market.

"The Seven Princes have no trace!" He Furong didn't pay attention to He Gui's strange face, and said to himself, "I have been conceited and discerning people all my life, but I didn't see that there was a cunning fox hidden in the shadows of the palace!" ”

In the mansion of the four princes, Feng Wuhou was lying lazily on the brocade couch, half-squinting, tasting the grapes peeled by the maid with relish, as if he didn't notice the chattering middle-aged man beside him. After a while, he opened his eyes, and a glimmer of essence flashed, and then he returned to his original nonchalant appearance. "Lao Qi's sudden move can indeed be described as a stroke of genius, since he has already expressed his attitude in public, his intention to take the throne is undoubtedly revealed. However, he took such great pains to excuse the third child, I'm afraid it is not so simple. ”

"What His Highness said is extremely true, I wonder if I need to send more people to my subordinates to pay attention to his every move? Now it's a very big time, and it moves the whole body! The middle-aged man is full of melancholy, he is the chief strategist Zhou Yan around Feng Wuhou, the word respectful, he was a Jinshi when he was young, but there is no background behind him, he made a real shortage of county orders because of the death of his mother and Ding was worried about the vacancy, and he never filled the vacancy at the age of forty, and went to the four princes in a rage, and became an idle doorman. By chance, Feng Wuhou noticed this person, and after a few long talks and temptations, Zhou Yan joined this dangerous game without hesitation.

"No need, only a fool like He Furong will transfer those three sects and nine streams without knowing the severity, His Royal Highness is the dignified king of the county, and he doesn't have to do it himself when he listens to the things in the corner, and someone will do it for him." Feng Wuhou smiled mysteriously, "Although the grape is good, those who can't eat it can only watch it fall into other people's mouths." ”

The master and servant looked at each other, and there was a burst of laughter in the room.

"Bang!" Rouping only felt a beat in her heart, alas, I don't know what day it is today, I heard those eunuchs in the palace say that the queen also fell a lot of things, but now, her own master is the same, starting from the morning, as small as cups, pillows, as large as vases, jewelry, it is to see what is not pleasing to the eye. But what can I do? Originally, the master thought that he could take this opportunity to pull out a nail from the position of the prince in one fell swoop, but he was destroyed by the son who had always thought that he was cowardly and useless.

"Rouping, come in." Concubine Yu's slightly tired voice came from within. Rouping hurriedly pushed the door in, and even if she had prepared for the miserable scene in front of her, she couldn't help but be frightened. Looking at the master's face carefully, he didn't even wipe a trace of powder, yellow and white, and he seemed to be ten years old.

"Niangniang, you should relax, everyone knows that the emperor loves the eleventh prince the most, and the third prince has also been taught a lesson this time. If you are angry, will you let others laugh at you? Rouping soothed as she quickly packed her things.

Of course, Concubine Yu would not know this, she just couldn't swallow this breath, an insignificant wind without a trace, could make the emperor make such a decision, what kind of mystery was hidden behind it, she, the concubine, actually didn't know anything, which made her feel a faint fear.

"Forget it, this palace will treat it as if there is no such son!" Concubine Yu sat in front of the dresser, and her heart was unwilling, "Rouping, dress up for the palace, hum, only a shallow woman like the queen will be endless." It's just getting started! Her face was once again filled with an ambitious glow.
