"You go and call Mama Zhang over." She turned her head and commanded the little maid.

Since Zhao Ruxi was given marriage, Princess Jingping has not treated her harshly. So the yard where she lives now is relatively good, there are a lot of people around her, and the degree of food and clothing is also a grade higher than that of ordinary concubines.

But Zhao Ruyu came to Jingping Palace, never for food and clothing. What she wants is the position of the princess of King Jingping.

Mama Zhang came soon.

"Mama Zhang, when you entered the palace, you delivered the letter to the crown princess for me, right?" Zhao Ruyu couldn't wait to ask as soon as she saw her.

After Xiao Lingyan was named the crown prince, he took his wife and son to live in the East Palace.

Mama Zhang turned out to be the grandmother of the palace, and later came to the Jingping Palace to be a nurturing grandmother when she was old, and by the way, she supported the elderly.

She has some old sisters in the palace, so every month when Princess Jingping enters the palace to greet Concubine Cen Guifei, she will follow and chat with the old sisters.

Princess Jingping relied on her to inquire about some news from those sisters, so she did not restrain her after entering the palace and was free with her.

This time, Zhao Ruyu asked her to bring a letter to Zhao Ruxi.

When Mama Zhang came back from sending the letter, she reported the situation to Zhao Ruyu. Unexpectedly, Zhao Ruyu came to ask again a few days later.

She was impatient, but she was afraid of the relationship between the crown princess and Aunt Zhao's relatives, so she still pressed her temper.

She said, "I sent it." There are also old slaves in the East Palace, and the old slaves went to beg them to take me into the East Palace. When they got there, the old slave reported to the house, saying that it was the princess's cousin who brought a letter to the princess, and those people led the old slave to the inner courtyard to report it. The maid next to the crown princess came out in person to take the letter and went in. ”

"Auntie, you told the old slave to wait there, and the old slave also waited for a meal. Worried that the princess was coming back, the old slave left the East Palace. When the old slave left, he didn't see the princess's maid come out. ”

Speaking of this, she was very disdainful in her heart.

Who would associate with a cousin who is married to someone else's concubine? What's more, it's still the crown princess. It's not bad to blame you for embarrassing the Zhao family, you even dare to write a letter to make friends and pull relationships, and you want the princess to reply to her, why is Aunt Zhao's face so big?

Zhao Ruyu asked some more details, but she couldn't ask anything, so she gave some silver and sent Mama Zhang.

"Fu Shu, you say, why doesn't she ignore me?" Zhao Ruyu looked in the direction of the palace and muttered to Fu Shudao.

Fu Shu did not speak.

She knew that Zhao Ruyu didn't need her answer.

Fu Shu's age is half a year older than Zhao Ruyu, and he is almost twenty years old now. But she is Zhao Ruyu's most trusted person, and Zhao Ruyu is reluctant to let her leave, so she has not helped Zhang Luo's relatives.

"System, you can check for me what is going on with Zhao Ruxi." Zhao Ruyu simply turned to the system for help.

"Palace-level news, 30,000 points each." The cold voice of the system came.

Zhao Ruyu: "......"

She looked at the points on the light curtain, and finally thought about it: "Forget it." ”

She finally saved 100,000 points, which she planned to use to exchange for beauty pills.

She knew that taking out the beauty pill would bring trouble for herself, but she couldn't care about it.

Recently, Princess Jingping has frequently looked at her daughter-in-law for Xiao Sijie, and if she doesn't take out her hole cards, all her plans will fail.

If it were someone else, she might have worried about causing trouble. But Zhao Ruxi is not worried at all.

Zhao Ruxi has a furrow in her chest, and she is unwilling and disdainful to do anything to her with conspiracy. If Zhao Ruxi wanted beauty pills, he would definitely exchange them with her openly.

"Since the crown princess is out of confinement, she will not stay in the palace all the time. She's going to go to the Ministry of Works. If the crown princess leaves the palace, ask them to come to me immediately. She said.

For various reasons, Fu Shu is no longer so loyal to Zhao Ruyu. There were some things she didn't want to talk about at all.

But at this moment, she still couldn't help it, and said, "Girl, why bother. You know the temper of the crown princess. She doesn't want to pay attention to people, and if you get together, you'll only annoy her, and she won't change her mind because of this. ”

"But I have something to say to her." Zhao Ruyu said.

Seeing that his plan was about to come to naught, and his life was about to be spent in this back house, Zhao Ruyu had been thinking a lot recently.

She thought that if she had listened to Zhao Ruxi's persuasion, worked hard to improve her piano skills, became a master in a women's academy, and then chose a man with an inconspicuous family background but an upright and talented man to marry, would she be very happy now?

Is it really that important to climb to a high place and become a person of high status?

Like Zhao Ruxi, her husband would rather not be a prince than take a concubine for her, I think he likes her very much, right? And this liking, after he became the prince and emperor, when facing young and beautiful beauties who can be chosen at will, how long can his liking last?

With Zhao Ruxi's character, she would prefer Xiao Lingyan to be just an idle king, or even an ordinary person, right?

……

Zhao Ruxi was indeed as Zhao Ruyu expected, and he couldn't stay at home after confinement.

The baby has its own nurse and a group of maids and wives waiting, with Xiao Yuci's imperial guards guarding and Xiao Lingyan's secret guards staring, she is still quite relieved.

So after squatting at home for two more days of mushrooms, she planned to go to the Ministry of Industry to have a look.

Someone notified Gong Cheng in advance, and she led Lu Yun and Xiang Ming to the Ministry of Industry.

"How are the harvesters selling?" She asked an official named Zuo Tang, who was in charge of the harvester.

Zuo Tang reported a number.

Zhao Ruxi is quite satisfied with this data.

She asked again: "When I asked you to count the purchase of harvesters by the families in the capital, did you count them?" ”

Zuo Tang hurriedly flipped through the paper in his hand, took out a stack of paper and handed it to Zhao Ruxi: "The situation of the Beijing family's purchase of harvesters has been recorded by the lower officials. ”

Zhao Ruxi flipped through it and found that this statistics were very detailed. Not only the number and date of the purchase of harvesters, but also the number of acres of land under the name of this family and the number of farm slaves.

She looked up and glanced appreciatively at Zuo Tang.

Zuo Tang is in his thirties, and he is a second-class jinshi one year earlier than Zhao Ruxi. At the beginning, after Zhao Ruxi handed over the harvester to the Ministry of Industry, he casually said that he asked someone to do statistics, and Zuo Tang, who was meticulous in his work, was sent to this errand.

"You're now the deputy of the Ministry of Works, right?" She asked.

"Back to the crown princess, yes." Zuo Tang Road.

Zhao Ruxi turned his head to Gong Cheng and said, "I will continue to make farm tools in the future, it is very inconvenient to run around every day." It is not appropriate to call the maids and guards to pass the word. My lord, do you think I should find someone to be my deputy in the Ministry of Works, and I can tell him to do something. ”

Gong Cheng said with a smile: "Xia Guan also has this intention, and he is planning to discuss this matter with Niangniang." ”
