Chapter 29: A Strategy to Tempt the Enemy (2)
When Yun Xiao heard this, he secretly praised Liu An for being shrewd.
Sure enough, he is the chief steward who has served the emperors of the two dynasties, and he always knows how to observe words and emotions better than others.
"Thank you father-in-law for bothering, with my father-in-law's words, this palace will be at ease!" Speaking of the Internal Affairs Office, Yun Xiao remembered another thing, "By the way, over there in the Internal Affairs Office, are there any errands under the hands of my father-in-law?" ”
Liu An sighed and said, "Actually, it is very taboo in the palace to form gangs, and it is inevitable that you will be charged with forming a party for personal gain!" ”
Yun Xiao immediately comforted: "Father-in-law relax, this is what we said in private, and others will not know!" ”
Liu An smiled a little embarrassedly: "Don't get me wrong, it's not that the slave doesn't believe in the mother, but, since the emperor was still there, the internal affairs office has been in the hands of the queen mother, since the emperor ascended the throne, the queen mother's control over the internal affairs office has become more tight, yesterday, after the accident in the palace of Concubine Li, there were many people in the internal affairs office, who were detained on very far-fetched charges, and sent to the Huanyi Bureau and Huawu to do rough work. Therefore, the minions did not dare to meddle too much in the affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. ”
Yun Xiao heard this, nodded, the queen mother's notice in the harem has reached such a point, even an old man like Liu An is afraid of the queen mother, this really has to make Yun Xiao gasp in the bottom of her heart, however, she still maintains a dignified and soft smile on her face, she said:
"What the father-in-law said, Bengong naturally believes it, in fact, Bengong also wants to find out what is going on in Concubine Li's Palace, after all, this matter involves Bengong and the child in Bengong's womb......"
"Niangniang's mind, the slave understands!" Liu An said with a smile, "Since Niangniang mentioned this now, in the future, whenever there is anything involved in Niangniang's palace in the Internal Affairs Mansion, the slaves will keep an eye on Niangniang, Niangniang can rest assured!" ”
"Thank you, father-in-law! In the future, I will have a lot of care from my father-in-law! ”
"You're welcome, this is what a slave should do!" Liu An is very good at being a man, and he also misses the friendship of the old man, "If there is nothing else, the slave will return to the Chengqian Palace to report to the emperor first!" ”
"Father-in-law go slowly, Qianyun, send Father-in-law Liu for the palace."
--------------------------
That night, Xia Rui ordered Gao Xiaoyi to sleep.
This is the first time that Xia Rui ordered a new concubine to enter the palace, if this was placed before, everyone would think that among Xia Rui's new concubines who entered the palace, the first to order Gao Xiaoyi's bed, it is a matter of course, who let the queen mother and the Gao family stand behind the house?
However, after what happened to Hua Qianruo and the Gao family was demoted, Xia Rui ordered Gao Xiaoyi to sleep again, which made people a little confused.
Xia Rui took the position of the Gao family yesterday, and today he ordered the Gao family to come to bed, this is really a rare thing, the emperor will not be so moody, right?!
Could it be that this Gao Xiaoyi used some means to charm the king in a place that everyone didn't know?
If this is really the case, then it will be terrible, the queen is now pregnant, and the emperor has issued an order that no one is allowed to disturb the queen in the affairs of the harem, in fact, they are not allowed to bother the queen, so they can't go to the queen mother to accuse Gao Xiaoyi of "seducing the king", right?
But, in fact, Gao Xiaoyi herself didn't understand why Xia Rui wanted to sleep by himself today.
She sat alone on the dragon bed in the Chenglu Temple, very worried in her heart.
When Xia Rui came in, she was still thinking about what words to say when she said goodbye.
On the other side, Xia Rui took in Gao Xiaoyi's expression, and before she got up to say goodbye, he said first: "Concubine Ai, do you think this Chenglu Hall is too cold?" ”
Love Concubine?
When did she become a concubine?
Gao Xiaoyi was seriously unconfident, and said flatteredly: "Minister...... Concubines...... The concubine is not cold......"
Xia Rui sat beside Gao Xiaoyi, stretched out his hand to hug her, and deliberately teased:
"Ai Fei, yesterday I didn't mean to demote your position, but everyone looked at it, and you didn't understand what I meant, if you really don't make a show, others will gossip about you behind your back, and I don't want Ai Fei to be gossiped, so I have to temporarily wronged Ai Fei, and after tonight, after Ai Fei goes to bed, as usual, you can enter the position once, I will give you three levels in a row, and make you a noble concubine to make up for it, okay?"
Promoted to a noble concubine? Isn't that the first house?
When Gao Xiaoyi heard this, she couldn't believe her ears, and even her words were knotted: "Your Majesty, do you really want to make your courtiers and concubines a noble concubine?" ”
Xia Rui smiled: "Of course it's true, tomorrow, I will order someone to clean up the Weiyang Palace, and when you have the canonization ceremony, you will move in immediately!" In the future, you will be the master of Weiyang Palace! Gao is not happy? ”
