The father of the noble man is the lord of Wupin Qianhu, because of the resemblance of his lips to Queen Mingxian at the beginning of the draft, he was favored by Qi Bingyu, so he was named a nobleman, and since entering the palace, there has only been one chance to sleep.

Although she is not favored, she is one of the few people in the palace who sincerely thinks about the emperor, she does not accept the attraction of Concubine Mei, nor does she accept the friendship between Ning Guifei and Concubine Yan, although she is a noble person on weekdays, and she once said bad things about Lu Huiling because of jealousy, but everyone in her sexual womb knows that if Lu Huiling asks her to help her, it will definitely not make people suspicious.

Lu Huiling is sure that he can let the noble people help him, and a large part of the reason is because the Lord of the Five Grades Thousand Households has recently made a mistake.

This is exactly the time when the imperial court urgently needs money, but Qianhu actually embezzled the grain and grass money on the front line with a group of officials at this juncture, which can be said to have touched Qi Bingyu's taboo, Lu Huiling heard in the Qinzheng Hall a few days ago about their embezzlement of front-line grain, grass and clothing, and he just didn't want to hear about it, but now it came in handy.

You must know that the emperor is very interested in this matter, and specially asked Lu Gaohong to investigate the matter, the investigation is still ongoing, and the conviction must be judged according to the amount of corruption, and the sentencing person is naturally Lu Gaohong.

After the nobleman knew about this, he was worried, and took all the valuable things of Lanyuan Pavilion and sent them out of the palace to subsidize the family, but such a big deficit could not be made up, and he must be in a hurry now.

After Xu Lan arrived at the Lanyuan Pavilion, she saw that the palace people in the Lanyuan Pavilion were all depressed, standing in the courtyard silently, and they all felt uneasy because the master was bored.

Although such concubine harems abound, after all, the emperor is old, and the state affairs are heavy, where is there time to be nostalgic for the weak water of this harem, but it is just that he is not favored, and a small five-grade household in his mother's family has such a thing that cannot be put on the table.

There are not many officials in the court who dare to say that they have clean sleeves, but the corruption and perversion of the law in this kind of place is really hateful, and Qi Bingyu will definitely not let them go.

The nobleman himself is not favored, and he can't even intercede for his father, and all the precious things in the Lanyuan Pavilion have been sent out of the palace, but he can't make up for the deficit of his father's corruption.

Later, I learned that my father was gambling outside and lost a lot of money, although he was a court official, how much money could he have for a small five-grade and thousands of households?

At this time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also took the lead in setting an example to let hundreds of officials donate money to the front line to raise food, and thousands of households lost all the money, where is there any money, and they scraped together some, coincidentally, these grains and grass are in charge of him and a few officials, so he privately embezzled some to make up for the shortfall, but soon went to gamble, and he was greedy a lot.

The nobleman repeatedly asked her father how much money she had embezzled, and she was dizzy when she learned that it was really a number, and it took her many years in the palace to make up these numbers.

During this time, I have been annoying about my mother's family, and the nobles are not eating and sleeping well, and the people are naturally sad.

"Can you be in the palace?" As soon as Xu Lan entered, she asked softly.

The depression of the Orchid Pavilion is directly written on the door plaque, and just looking inside from the outside of the door, you can see the desolation of the Orchid Pavilion.

A palace maid who was sweeping the fallen leaves on the ground raised her head, and when she saw that the person who came was Aunt Xu Lan from Minghua Hall, she hurriedly put down her broom and stepped forward: "Aunt Xu Lan." ”

Xu Lan nodded and asked, "Is the noble person in the palace?" ”

The palace maid Ah Xun looked back at the side hall, and then asked Xu Lan: "What is the reason why Aunt Xu Lan came?" ”

In the past few days, the nobles have been silent in the side hall, and they don't come out all day long, and all the meals that Ah Xun sent to the nobles have been brought out, and the oil and salt have not been eaten in these days, and Ah Xun is very worried.

Xu Lan also followed to look at the closed side hall, and then looked at the palace maid Ah Xun, and said with a smile: "Concubine Ming Niangniang sent me to invite the nobles to go to Minghua Hall, saying that they were looking for the nobles to discuss things again, and I hope that Miss Ah Xun will report it." ”

Although Xu Lan is the aunt next to the favorite concubine, she has a modest and polite attitude, and many people in the palace respect her.

Ah Xun looked at the dormitory in embarrassment, then looked at Xu Lan, and said: "Aunt Xu Lan, recently our master has encountered something, I'm afraid I can't go to see Concubine Ming, and I hope you go back and talk to Concubine Ming, don't blame it." ”

Xu Lan smiled lightly, and said to Ah Xun with a look of embarrassment: "Ah Xun girl doesn't know, Concubine Ming is impatient, if you know that the noble person intends to avoid her... I'm afraid it's..."

Xu Lan didn't say it explicitly, but every time this happened, it made people feel panicked.

Ah Xun was frightened by this sentence, Concubine Ming killed two palace maids with a rod when she was just a concubine, and the emperor did not blame it, this matter spread throughout the harem, and I am afraid that many people in the capital also know about it.

"Okay." Ah Xun thought about it, but still thought about going to report, "Aunt Xu Lan, wait a while, I'll ask first." ”

"Okay." Xu Lan smiled, nodded and said.

Xu Lan waited under the vine tree in the Orchid Yuan Pavilion, and after Ah Xun put the broom away, he trotted into the side hall.

As soon as she pushed the door open, the nobleman lying on the bed noticed it, and she said in a muffled voice: "Didn't you say that I didn't call you, so don't come in and bother me?" ”

Ah Xun walked to the side of the bed, knelt down and said, "Nobleman, Aunt Xu Lan next to Concubine Ming is here, saying that Concubine Ming wants to see you." ”

Guiren turned over and sat up, looking weak and vicissitudes, she frowned and asked, "Okay, I didn't provoke her, what does she want to see me for?" ”

The nobleman did say bad things about Concubine Ming with Concubine Ning and Concubine Yan before, and he also added rumors when everyone stepped on Concubine Ming, but everyone said far more than her, how could Concubine Ming have to see her.

"I don't know, Aunt Xu Lan explained that the concubine has something important to discuss with the nobles." Ah Xun raised his head and looked at the nobleman and said.

"It's not good for her to look for me, you went to reject Xu Lan, just say that I am not feeling well and don't want to see people." As he spoke, he turned around and lay down.

Ah Xun hurriedly grabbed the nobleman and said, "Don't be a nobleman, Ah Xun has already said it, but Aunt Xu Lan said... Concubine Ming has a bad temper, so the nobles should go for a trip. ”

Ah Xun knew what happened to the noble family, but Concubine Ming was unreasonable, and she would never go back.

The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she became, her father's brother was not angry, she thought that she was lucky enough to enter the palace for the draft, and she was favored by the emperor and rose step by step, and even took her father and brother to heaven.

But I have been silent in the palace for many years, seeing that my face is fleeting, and I am almost old, and I am still just a noble person who can be bullied, not like Lu Huiling, who was named the fourth concubine as soon as he entered the palace, and there is such a powerful mother behind him, and the prince is his cousin, and he has been an aunt, and he can't afford to offend no matter what he thinks.

After all kinds of pressure, the nobleman's eyes were red and moist, and the tears were about to fall, she sniffed, touched a handful of tears, and said to Ah Xun: "Then put on makeup for me, it's not good to see Concubine Ming." ”

Ah Xun saw that the nobleman finally agreed to go out, and he nodded busily: "Hey, the slave maid will bring hot water to the nobleman to wash his face." ”

The nobleman nodded, stood up and sat in front of the dressing mirror, waiting for Ah Xun to come and groom himself.

Looking at his aging face in the mirror, the nobleman couldn't help but feel sad, if he had known that this was the case, it would have been good if he didn't enter the palace at the beginning, unlike now, it is clear that it is difficult enough to work hard enough in the palace, and if something happened to his mother's family, he still delusionally thought that he could rely on himself to go to the emperor to say a few good words.

It's not that Guiren hasn't thought about this, but Rengui is self-aware, she knows that she is not Concubine Mei, nor Concubine Ming, what she said has no weight in the emperor, if she bothers the emperor again, I am afraid that she will also be implicated, and she will die of old age in the harem in this life.

Ah Xun walked out after dressing up the nobleman, Xu Lan was looking up at the vine tree overhead, now in winter, the leaves on the vine tree have fallen, and the trunk is bent and twisted together, which is a different scene.

"Aunt Xu Lan." Ah Xun helped the nobles to come out, and when he saw that Xu Lan didn't notice them, he reminded them loudly.

Xu Lan hurriedly came back to her senses, saw the nobleman who had already dressed up, and said with a smile: "The slave maid asks for the nobleman." I haven't seen it for a long time, and the nobles have become more and more clear, so it's good, when it comes to the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet, the emperor sees it and likes it. ”

It's just a kind word, by that time, there will be 3,000 beauties in the harem, where can the emperor still take care of her, not to mention that there are Mei Guifei and Ming Fei.

"Aunt Xu Lan is polite. Now that it's here, it's better to hurry up, save the time Concubine Ming and wait for the hurry. The noble man pulled out a smile indifferently, and his heart was full of bitterness.

"Hey, you look at the memory of the slave maid, and when you see the nobles who look like fairies, you have forgotten about it." Xu Lan's mouth is very sweet, and the master who has always teased her is very happy, but Lu Huiling usually doesn't eat this set, so he doesn't say it in front of her.

At this moment, how could the noble man have the heart to be proud of such words, he only nodded and walked straight to Minghuatang, and Xu Lan hurriedly followed.

In Minghua Hall, Lu Huiling was waiting patiently in the main hall, thinking about the method he thought of, he felt very happy in his heart, and at that time, the thorns in his two eyes would also be eradicated.

Lu Huiling waited for a long time, and did not see the nobles coming, so he stood up and walked to the outside of the main hall to look, at this time, the nobles and Xu Lan Axun happened to appear at the door of Minghua Hall, Lu Huiling hurriedly ran back to the main hall to sit on the seat, waiting for the nobles to come in and greet her.
