Chapter 214: The Workplace

Li Jingshan started her life of going out early and returning late again, and even Ruan Mingyu's pleas couldn't make her go home early. Even Ruan Sanshao complained complainingly that his newlywed treatment was greatly discounted, and he failed to save Li Jingshan's heart of wholeheartedly learning.

Fortunately, it is now almost the end of the year, and the affairs of Jingbao Pavilion are also busy, and the two of them are busy with their own work, sometimes they can't even touch the dinner hour, and only when the lights are almost out at night, they are tired of being in the quilt for a while. It's just that the two seem to have tacitly agreed that no matter how late it is, they will wait until the other person comes back before staying to rest.

Li Jingshan went to the palace every day to work as an errand in the palace, while learning the "Yaoguang" carving technique from Yue Zangfeng, and understanding the rules and requirements of the palace. But in a few days, she found that even in the palace, there were different circles. In simple terms, it can be broadly divided into two main categories.

One is like her, who has been strictly selected to enter the Sizhen Bureau. This kind of people have real talents and outstanding skills, and they are all master-level craftsmen, and most of the work in the palace is from the hands of this kind of people. Naturally, this group of people is arrogant, their eyes are above the top, and most of them are cold-tempered.

The other type is through various palace relationships, and enters the Sizhen Bureau to mix with the emperor. Their skills are sparse, and they don't want to make progress on weekdays, but because they have a not weak background behind them, they are the most good at fighting people, and they also look at people with their nostrils every day.

These two types of people look down on each other, although they are not to the point of incompatibility in the Sizhen Bureau, but at least the well water does not interfere with the river water, and the two do not intersect. Even when they meet every day, they don't say hello to each other, and they turn their heads and walk away.

Such a situation, not to mention that Yue Zangfeng could not be changed, and even the eunuch in charge of the internal affairs government could not do anything.

Then, Li Jingshan found herself in an awkward position - because she didn't rely on both ends.

The "powerful faction" knew that she had befriended the county lord of Anping before entering the palace, and her competition with Si Zhenfang was rumored to be facilitated through the four princes and Lan Guifei, so no matter what the result was, she had already been preconceived into the "relationship faction".

And the "Guanpai faction" knew that Li Jingshan was not only the master of the Zhentang in the Jingbao Pavilion, but also knew the details of her defeat of the master of Si Zhenfang from various channels, and understood that she was a craftsman who really relied on her craft to eat, and of course she was not all the way with them.

As a result, Li Jingshan is now in such a state of being isolated by both factions at the same time. Although she was somewhat mentally prepared for such a situation, it still caused some trouble to her errand. Like now.

"Miss Li, I'm really embarrassed, now there are only these jade blanks left, you will choose one." The little eunuch who was in charge of the raw materials of gold and jade slowly repaired his fingernails, and said with a smile on his skin.

Li Jingshan looked at the bamboo basket with either broken corners and broken skins, or leftovers with very poor color, and asked in a good voice: "But yesterday I also saw Master Zhou of the jade work, and received two pieces of red jade with excellent water heads." Can you bother my father-in-law and help me find it? ”

"You also said that you came to receive it yesterday. There is nothing strange about it today. The little eunuch said impatiently, "Besides, it wasn't my errand yesterday, maybe he had already booked it." No is nothing. ”

Li Jingshan couldn't, so she had to pick and choose among the pile of "dead materials" and turned out two pieces that were barely usable.

"Hey, come and register." The little eunuch shouted loudly, "The jade materials here must be recorded." ”

Li Jingshan went over to register, looked at the book and said in surprise, "Father-in-law, these two pieces of jade are six-grade, but how can they be recorded as five-grade?" But misremembered? ”

The little eunuch snorted, "This kind of color is originally a fifth grade, what's wrong!" He waved his hand impatiently, "You can't get it yet, if you don't get it, take it back." ”

There are strict regulations on the grade of finished jewelry, and each piece will be hand-graded according to the material. If the defective rate is high, the salary deduction and downgrade are small, and the serious ones will even be expelled from the Bureau. And if the craftsman is kicked out of the palace, his reputation in this craft circle can be regarded as ruined, and it will be difficult to continue to mix in this industry.

And now Li Jingshan is holding the six-grade jade material, but the finished product has to be evaluated according to the grade of the five-grade, which is naturally extremely unfair. She is bound to work the conception and carving in order to smooth out the disadvantages of the raw materials and squeeze into the higher level of evaluation.

Li Jingshan didn't continue to argue with him, just nodded lightly, and walked out of the warehouse with the jade material. From a distance, she saw another craftsman from Jin Yuzuo approaching, and with a turn of footsteps, she followed the wall and walked to the window on the other side of the storeroom and stood still.

Li Jingshan recognized that the Liang craftsman was a member of the "Guanxi" faction, a relative of a concubine in the palace.

He entered the jade room, and said loudly: "If there is any good material recently, bring it to the master." ”

The little eunuch replied with a smile on his face: "It turned out to be Master Liang, you wait a minute." Two days ago, I happened to receive a few pieces of red jade full of color. Can you see it? He took out a box from the cabinet and opened it, and it was full of jade materials of good color.

Craftsman Liang checked it for a while, and said with a smile, "These two pieces look okay, that's it." "I'm going to go out with it.

"Master Liang, please stay," the little eunuch smiled carefully, "Now that the bureau is strictly controlled, you can keep a record, and the little one can follow up." ”

Craftsman Liang snorted impatiently, "Why do you break the rules so much...... Such a broken material, even if the third gear is good. Reaching out and picking up another piece from the box, "This piece of material is so small, even if it's a match, it's not in the file." ”

The little eunuch nodded and said, "Hey, okay, okay." Walk slowly. ”

Li Jingshan watched Craftsman Liang just take those top-grade red jade and walk away, squinting her eyes slightly.

She walked back to Jin Yuzuo casually, and Yue Zangfeng asked, "How did you go to get a piece of material, you have been there for so long." ”

Li Jingshan shook her head lightly, "The father-in-law on duty happened to be away from him, so he waited for a while, so he delayed a while." ”

Yue Zangfeng didn't think much about it, and nodded lightly, "You still have seven works left to complete the task this month, do it early, sell it early, and don't have to enter the palace every day." ”

Li Jingshan thought for a while and said, "I didn't get any good materials just now, can Master Yue lend me two pieces of materials first?" ”

"On that shelf, there are a few pieces of jade that I haven't had time to get yet," Yue Zangfeng pointed casually, "You can use it first." ”

Li Jingshan happily responded, "Thank you, master!" ”

She did not complain about the unfair treatment to Yue Zangfeng. Because she understood that although the little eunuch in the treasury and the Liang craftsman were at fault, if they were stabbed, they would definitely not escape punishment, but they were only scolded twice, and at most they would be punished. However, in this way, she completely offended the two of them, as well as the craftsmen of the treasury and the treasure bureau behind them.

As the saying goes, "Hades is better, but the imps are harder." "Even if Yue Zangfeng is the head of the Si Zhen Bureau, it is impossible to protect her and help her at all times. In the future, she will be even more difficult to move in the Sizhen Bureau, and she will be in a difficult situation.

She can clearly see that in order to change the current predicament, she can only find another way to solve it herself, and cannot rely on others. This matter has to be thought out slowly, and there is no hurry.

Li Jingshan took two pieces of Yue Zangfeng's jade, returned to her workstation, and began to draw lines on the jade. Once she is immersed in the craft, her mind is immediately clear, and all her worries are far away.

Yue Zangfeng looked at the figure who was working seriously at the desk, and his eyes showed appreciation. In this girl, he saw a rare and valuable quality of pursuing the ultimate art.

Li Jingshan was busy with the lights again before she came out of the workshop. When she walked out of the palace alone with a lantern, she suddenly heard a familiar voice behind her, "Sister Shan? The one in front is Li Jingshan? "Place

When I turned around, I saw a lantern shining not far away, and several palace people escorted a young woman over, and it was Yue Qingzi, the lord of Anping County.

Li Jingshan hurriedly stepped up to meet her, didn't care about saluting, and whispered in surprise: "Ah, Qingzi, you are pregnant, and you are about to be a mother!" ”

Yue Qingzi was also very happy, holding Li Jingshan's hand and laughing, "Yes." Around the time of the winter solstice, it will be time to give birth. When I entered the palace today, I was afraid that I would not be able to attend the winter solstice ceremony, so I came in advance to greet the concubine and the queen mother. ”

"Ah, less than a month." Li Jingshan carefully looked at Yue Qingzi and saw that her complexion was fair, less innocent than before, but more gentle and elegant as a young woman, which shows that her married life is comfortable and comfortable, and she is loved in the palm of her hand.

Li Jingshan knew that before Yue Qingzi left the cabinet, she was happy with the current popular celebrity merchant in Liyuan. Later, under her explanation, she finally let go of her obsession before getting married and married with peace of mind. Now that I see her happiness, I am also happy in my heart, and I laughed and joked with Yue Qingzi: "The Han family has been fighting horses for generations, is this Han Xiaogongzi in your belly, and he starts dancing with knives and sticks?" ”

Yue Qingzi's married lover is Han Zirong, the son of Han Shangshu of the Ministry of War. Han Zirong served as the chief of the guard in the Huben Camp of the Forbidden Army, and he was also a third-grade military attachΓ©, so Li Jingshan said this.

"How do you know it's a boy?" Yue Qingzi couldn't help laughing, and gently stroked her bulging abdomen with her palm, "I want a quiet and caring girl." ”

"It doesn't matter if it's male or female," Li Jingshan smiled narrowly, "I will have a few more in the future." ”

Yue Qingzi laughed happily, "Give birth to a few more, should you be a sow?" You're also married, why didn't you give birth to a few? ”

The two reunited after a long absence, and their interest was very high, and they had endless words, chatting all the way to the palace gate. When he was about to arrive at Donghua Gate, Yue Qingzi suddenly paused, grabbed Li Jingshan's hand hard, bent down slightly, and turned pale: "Sister Shan, this little thing is so happy...... It seems that I can't help but come out first. ”

Li Jingshan: "!! ”
