On the grape shelf, the emerald green leaves are waving in the wind, and the dark green vines climb up along the shelf, sticking their heads up, and it can be seen that the people who carry the load are taking care of it very carefully, and it is foreseeable that the autumn will be a fruitful scene.

Gu Banqin put on her clothes, walked out of the palace gate, and stood there pretty, obedient and gentle, looking at Helian Hongyi, where was there still a palpitation before.

Helian Hongyi lowered his eyes, a few thoughts turned in his heart, and without saying anything, he led Wang Shun's father-in-law to the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Wang Shun's father-in-law didn't dare to look around, and followed Helian Hongyi away, thinking about the strange atmosphere between the two just now, and wondered if this lady had said something to offend the emperor again......

This...... The emperor came and went, and he slept and slept, why did he leave again?

Before Wang Shun's father-in-law figured out one, two, or three in his heart, when he arrived at the Palace of Heart Cultivation, the emperor directly gave him a positive answer.

Helian Hongyi stopped when he stepped into the Heart Nourishing Hall with one foot, and asked Wang Shun's father-in-law inexplicably: "Is there a shortage of slaves and maids serving in the palace recently?" ”

Wang Shun's father-in-law asked suddenly, wondering in his heart, why did the well-behaved emperor suddenly ask about this, could it be that something happened that he didn't know?

But Wang Shun's father-in-law is so old, where is the quality of the experience in the palace, and he immediately replied with a useless answer: "Back to the emperor, the servants did not hear any rumors that there was a shortage of people in the palace, but recently, because the brides and mothers entered the palace, many palaces controlled by the previous children have been inhabited, and the inner court may be a little flustered in the manpower allocation." ”

After Wang Shun's father-in-law finished speaking, he bowed down, his nose and eyes were concerned.

"Oh."

After hearing this, Helian Hongyi sighed, and his tone was inexplicable.

Wang Shun's father-in-law couldn't hear what the emperor's "oh" meant in this life, was this satisfied or unhappy......

But this does not prevent Wang Shun's father-in-law from making amends.

Wang Shun's father-in-law continued: "Why don't you go to the Inner Court Division and ask, what kind of charter is this?" ”

Helian Hongyi didn't answer immediately, but just stared at Wang Shun's father-in-law with dark eyes for a while.

Wang Shun's father-in-law who could see it only felt that his scalp was numb, but in the end he was still stable and did not show any abnormalities.

was silent for a long time, and just when Wang Shun's father-in-law thought that the emperor was going to be furious next, Helian Hongyi suddenly opened his mouth and talked about other things:

"I remember, this Gu Baolin has been serving in the palace for almost two years, and the new ladies have been named a four-grade good lady, and in the past, the people in this palace were all like the top people, looking at Gu Baolin's low status, he didn't serve the master wholeheartedly, do you say yes, Wang Shun?"

Wang Shun's father-in-law was like being struck by lightning, he froze on the spot, and then knelt on the ground, before he could open his mouth to plead guilty.

Helian Hongyi spoke again: "Go, pass on my will, Gu Baolin is docile and virtuous, serves with all his heart, and is promoted to Jieyu, who is the third grade, and gives Fanghua Palace, the master of the first palace." ”

"Let the division room hurry up to make the four-hour uniform, the golden rocking hosta, and tell someone to choose some good sugar dumplings for Gu Jieyu to send them over, and then send a decree to me, so that the squire of the Ministry of Works can enter the palace to meet him."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Wang Shungong to receive the decree, Helian Hongyi stepped out of his left foot with an expressionless face and walked into the Palace of Heart Nourishment.

Wang Shun's father-in-law waited until he couldn't see the emperor, then he dared to stand up tremblingly, looked at the hall, and thought to God, Gu Baolin is really a unique favor, from the six-grade Baolin directly to the three-grade Jieyu, even across the three levels, it is simply a step to the sky.

The rank of the concubines in the harem of Daqi follows the old system of the northern country, and the queen is super high-quality, the mother of a country.

There is a first-class imperial concubine, who is more than a hereditary prince and duke.

Below the concubine is the second concubine of the same third duke, the lord of the first palace, Concubine Gu Shu, Concubine Zhao De and Xie Zhaoyi are among them.

Then there is the third grade Jieyu, whose status is comparable to that of the eight servants, and has the right to govern one palace, and the concubines under the three grades can only live in the palace and have no right to rule one palace.

And the first ranking of the harem concubines is basically forever, the harem women do not have the group of the court to discuss politics, and if they rely on contributions to the promotion, they can only rely on the mother to rely on the son, and the heir to speak, and generally conceive the dragon descendant can be promoted to half a level, give birth to a princess to advance to one level, and give birth to a prince can be promoted to two levels.

Of course, there are no absolutes, as long as you get the emperor's favor, how to advance, how many levels to promote, it is not the emperor's final say.

Obviously, Gu Baolin, no, it should be this Gu Jieyu Niangniang who is such a person who is favored by the emperor.

When Wang Shun's father-in-law received the order, he didn't dare to delay, stood up and quickly went to the Inner Court.

In the inner court department, Song Baogong, who was in charge, was leisurely drinking tea, counting the benefits he had received from the brides of various halls in the past few days.

In the past, the harem of Daqi was empty, the number of concubines and concubines was small, and he didn't dare to provoke the three second-grade mothers, so he naturally didn't dare to slack off.

There is only one left-grade Baolin Niangniang, and there is no silver and no silver two, and there is no oil and water at all, so naturally he can only supply Rick buckle in one dry, but the little thing that is deducted is not enough for him to stuff his teeth.

Fortunately, after the draft, a group of brides came to the palace, these ladies were all born into high-ranking families, and they had a lot of money, and they wanted to ask for extra things in the palace.

Song Bao's father-in-law, who is bent on drilling in the eyes of money, enjoys how much oil and water can be scraped from this batch of brides in the future. The little eunuch who suddenly passed the word shouted to him in a hurry, saying that Wang Shun's father-in-law came with the emperor's will.

Wang Shun's father-in-law was the chief manager of their harem eunuchs, and he also came with the emperor's will, Song Bao didn't dare to take it, put on a smiling face, and immediately went out to greet him.

As soon as he entered the door, before Song Bao's father-in-law said an affectionate word to Mr. Wang, he saw Wang Shun smacking a big mouth to the two little eunuchs who were serving beside him, and the two little eunuchs looked blindfolded.

The two little eunuchs were stunned and shrank in the corner, not daring to speak.

Although Song Bao's father-in-law was not beaten, but Wang Shun's father-in-law hit the two eunuchs who served him, just like hitting his own face, he was also blindfolded, and after thinking about it for a while, he didn't understand what was wrong with his annoyance, and he didn't have any place to snub Wang Shun's father-in-law recently.

Could it be the emperor?

Song Bao was almost frightened by his guess, waved his hand and drove out the two little eunuchs who were covering their faces, and sent the tea to Wang Shun's father-in-law behind the table with both hands.

Song Bao knew that he must be provoking the emperor, and he didn't dare to ask the reason, so he knelt down for Wang Shun's father-in-law, and his voice was as sharp as a broken gong: "Manager Wang, I was wrong, I was really wrong, please put out the fire, plead for the emperor, don't cut off our family's head......"

Song Bao's father-in-law is really afraid, two years ago, he was cut down by the emperor because of his mouth, and the grave grass of the palace maids and eunuchs was old.

Song Bao's father-in-law knelt, knelt in front of Wang Shun's father-in-law step by step, and before he got close, he handed over the teacup and kicked Wang Shun's father-in-law, right in the abdomen, and the teacup in his hand rolled all the way.

Wang Shungong said unsteadily: "Let me ask you, in Jieyu Niangniang's muddy palace, why is there a palace maid who is waiting for her closely?" I said, what's in your head? What kind of place does the Inner Chambers do for a living? It is the place where the servants of the palace are responsible for serving the good masters! ”

"Let you take care of the people below and serve the master with all your heart, you are good, have you done your best not to say it first, spread your hands, you don't care if there are fewer people around this lady, right?"

When Song Bao's father-in-law heard this, he immediately knew that he didn't have to provoke the emperor, so he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and whispered: "Princess-in-law Mingjian, the little one asked Baolin Niangniang, it was Baolin Niangniang who said she didn't want it......"

"You're really blinded by lard! I don't know where I did wrong, okay, you listen to me, the emperor has just made a will, from now on, Baolin Niangniang will be promoted to Jieyu Niangniang, who is the third grade, and will live in Fanghua Palace! ”

"Ahh ......" Song Bao's father-in-law was stunned, and he was stunned to utter a syllable and then went silent.

"I didn't say you! You are also the head of the Inner Court Division, the head of the harem and the deployment of palace female slaves, how can you be so shallow-eyed! ”

"The ladies in this harem are so good-natured, today you see that people are unhappy, how do you know that he will not be favored alone in the future, and he will soar!"

"Let you follow the rules of the palace on weekdays, do things in a proper manner, don't see people put down dishes, and you don't listen to the stones! Now it's not a matter of whether Jieyu Niangniang wants someone to serve her, but a matter of us serving the master wholeheartedly? ”

"Thanks to the emperor who is in a good mood in Jieyu Niangniang today, you have to thank Jieyu Niangniang, otherwise you will serve the master with no heart, and the emperor will have to cut off your head!."

Song Bao's father-in-law felt wronged, and Wang Shun's father-in-law was too lazy to deal with him.

Wang Shun glanced at the deputy envoy on the side, and slipped Song Baoti into the dark inner room, because he had to teach these unconscious people what the rules were!

Gu Banqin sat under the grape trellis, holding a teacup in his hand, but he didn't drink it, leaned on the back of the chair, looked at the thin half moon in the sky, and what lingered in his mind was Helian Hongyi's blackened appearance.

is very different from Helian Hongyi's usual coldness and impersonal feelings, although Helian Hongyi is a cold-faced man with a paralyzed face on weekdays, but he is imposing and not aggressive towards people, but it is different after blackening.

The blackened Helian Hongyi is full of his own anger, a kind of cruel and vicious, and a feeling of choosing people.

How can a good person say that blackening is blackening?

Gu Banqin thought about it for a long time, and suddenly felt blessed in her heart, and remembered a little bit of what she learned in her college psychology class in her previous life and what she learned in movies and television: Could it be mental illness?

Psychosis is different from neurosis, these are two concepts.

Psychosis is often used in our swearing, but it actually refers to the symptoms that arise when the nervous system is damaged, such as neuralgia.
