"Your Majesty, is it going to force your way into the Yuan Palace today?"

At this time, a tactful female voice came faintly, and Wang Mang raised his eyes to see that it was a delicate girl dressed in aqua green to serve.

The girl glanced at Li Yueru with some displeasure, and said, "Sister Yueru, what you did today is not proper, the Queen Mother will let you go back, and the matter here will be handled by me." ”

Li Yueru's face turned pale and said, "Third sister, I can handle the matter here." ”

As soon as Li Yueru called the person who came, Wang Mang immediately knew who the girl in front of him was.

There are four intimate palace maids in the Shangyuan Palace of the Empress Dowager Shangguan Wan'er, representing the will of the Empress Dowager externally and managing all the palace ladies in the Shangyuan Palace internally.

These four palace maids, in order from bottom to top, are the fourth sister Li Yueru, the third sister Jinhua, the second sister praise, the eldest sister Jinyu, and also known as the four fairies like flowers and jade.

The one in front of her is called the third sister by Li Yueru, and she thinks that it is the third of the four sisters who are like flowers and jade, although this golden flower is the third, but she and the eldest Jinyu are sisters, and in terms of power, she is only second only to her sister Jinyu in this Shangyuan Palace, and she is different from others.

"What can you handle. Jin Hua snorted and said, "If you want to go back, you will go back, don't you even listen to the Queen Mother's words." ”

"Yes. Li Yueru secretly gritted her teeth, knowing that although she was also a member of the flowers, she was nothing in front of the Jin sisters, and only praise made the two sisters a little jealous.

Immediately, Li Yueru turned to look at Wang Mang and said: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has summoned, the slave and maid have to go back, so I won't serve Your Majesty here, with my third sister here, I think Your Majesty will not be lonely." ”

What with what?

Wang Mang looked at Li Yueru a little inexplicably, what do you mean that your third sister is here, I am not lonely? You are here to visit the night club, and you want a little girl to accompany you.

I'm here to see if it's good to get down to business.

However, Wang Mang did not embarrass Li Yueru, waved his hand, asked Li Yueru to retreat, and then looked at Jin Hua and said, "Miss Jin, do you think that you, a little palace maid, can also stop my holy drive?"

"Naturally, the slave maid did not dare to stop His Majesty's holy car. Jin Hua was slightly blessed, and said with a smile on her face: "It's just that the slave maid has the queen mother's decree on her body, and your majesty will not disobey the queen mother's decree." ”

"Bold Gong'e. Li Lan suddenly opened his mouth at this time and scolded: "How did you talk to Your Majesty, and you still don't kneel down and slap your mouth!"

"Father-in-law Li, the slave and maid are just passing on the Empress Dowager's decree, if there is anything out of line, please make it public. Jin Hua was not annoyed, and opened her mouth to fight back: "It's just the decree of the Queen Mother, Your Majesty hasn't said anything, Gonggong Li just scolded him like this, Gonggong Li Where do you want to send the Queen Mother, according to the slave maid, I'm afraid that the person who should be in the palm of your mouth is your Gonggong Li!"

"What a sharp-toothed Niko. Li Lan smiled instead of being angry: "I have long heard that the sisters of the Jin family in Shangyuan Palace have a three-inch incorruptible tongue and the ability to spit lotus flowers. ”

The father-in-law praised it. Jin Hua chuckled and said, "Where can our sister's ability be compared to Gonggong Li, who was able to say that the dead were alive back then." ”

"You ......" Li Lan's face turned pale, and she was speechless for a moment when she pointed at Jinhua.

Wang Mang was also a little speechless about this golden flower's tongue, she praised Li Lan for saying that the dead were alive is not something that makes Li Lan worthy of praise, this thing is definitely a stain that Li Lan can't wash away in his life, at this time, when he mentions this, it is not a boast, it is simply pointing at Li Lan and scolding, but you can't say that people are wrong, if Wang Mang doesn't happen to know the origin of this allusion, I'm afraid that Jinhua will think that Jinhua is flattering Li Lan from words alone.

Seeing that Li Lan was speechless for a while, Wang Mang had no choice but to speak: "Okay, Miss Jin, I really have an urgent matter to see the Queen Mother today, the Queen Mother is not in good health, and I also know it, but this matter is urgent, and it can't be delayed at all." ”

"The slave and the maid are also people who know things, and the slave and maid that His Majesty said must be told to the Queen Mother as it is. Jinhua nodded.

"Miss Jin, I just heard you say that you brought the Queen Mother's decree, and I want to hear what the Queen Mother has said. Wang Mang said, he really wants to hear what the Queen Mother has to say, if he is satisfied, then he will retreat, if he is not satisfied, then he has to break in.

The Queen Mother said. Jin Hua's face was solemn, and she said: "The Queen Mother knows that Her Majesty came today for the 100,000 taels of silver allocated to Shangyuan Palace yesterday by the Ministry of Households, but since this money has entered the Shangyuan Palace, it is natural that the money cannot be returned, otherwise what is the face of Shangyuan Palace?"

The Queen Mother really knows what I am doing today, but the Queen Mother lives in the deep palace, and the news is still transmitted so quickly, but it cannot be underestimated, Wang Mang said in his heart.

After a deep sigh, Wang Mang said: "I naturally know that the face of Shangyuan Palace cannot be lost, but as the Son of Heaven, I have told the officials above the court that I am responsible for solving this matter, if I just retreat, then I will lose face, I and the Queen Mother share weal and woe, my face is the face of the Queen Mother, but my face is gone, but the Queen Mother's face is not taken care of." ”

Jin Hua looked at Wang Mang in some surprise, it was not the first time she had seen the emperor, but it was also the first time she had seen the emperor with such a sharp tongue.

Jin Hua immediately put away her contempt, looked at Wang Mang and said: "What Your Majesty said is very true, before the slave maid came, the Queen Mother had already taken this into account, and instructed the slave and maid to tell Your Majesty that since Your Majesty is here today, it is natural that you can't go home empty-handed." ”

"Yes, the Queen Mother really understands the righteousness. Wang Mang nodded.

"Your Majesty, slowly. Jin Hua said: "The Queen Mother means to give Your Majesty 50,000 taels of silver, so that Your Majesty will not lose face, and Shangyuan Palace will not lose face." ”

"What about the remaining 50,000 taels?" Wang Mang asked.

"There are so many yamen in the imperial court, you can't just go to the Yuan Palace to suffer, the Shangyuan Palace took 50,000 taels, and it is not difficult for other yamen to think about it if they think about it, I don't know what Your Majesty wants?"

What about me?

Of course I don't agree, if it's just a matter of 100,000 taels of silver, Wang Mang who Jinhua said thinks it's also feasible, the silver can't be taken by just one family, Shangyuan Palace has taken 50,000 taels, and I think those Shangshu adults won't push back and block the remaining 50,000 taels.

But the Queen Mother's 100,000 taels of silver involves the system task, so it can't be solved in this way, the task is to get 100,000 taels of silver from the Queen Mother, then you can only take it from here, and the system doesn't recognize it from other places, and naturally there will be no reward for completing the task, and it is not clear what surprises this system will give you, and what is the origin.

So Wang Mang shook his head at Jin Hua and said, "Miss Jin, since I promised the hundred officials to take the 100,000 taels of silver from Shangyuan Palace, then I can only take these 100,000 taels from Shangyuan Palace, and ask the girl to make way. ”

Jin Hua's face was stunned, she just saw a hint of joy flashing in Wang Mang's eyes, she thought that Wang Mang would agree to this plan, who would have thought that there would be changes, and couldn't help frowning.

"Why, Miss Jin, don't lead the way yet. Li Lan said gloomily.

"Your Majesty. Jin Hua didn't pay attention to Li Lan, but looked at Wang Mang and said: "The Queen Mother also thought that Your Majesty would have such a reaction, and the Queen Mother said that if Your Majesty does not agree, then there is only one solution that can make Your Majesty and Shangyuan Palace both decent." ”
