Chapter 292: Night Pearl

After the ceremony, the people of Sigongtai sent a lot of utensils to the Vermilion Bird Palace, in addition to the Xunyu reward, there are some that are not on the gift list.

An Ning took one of the night pearls and looked left and right, always feeling that she had seen it somewhere.

Thinking that she liked it, Manager Wu of Sigongtai smiled all over his face, "Mrs. Qi, this is the little ones who pay extra attention to Mrs. Qi, do you like it?" ”

"Like, this bead is so beautiful, it doesn't look like something from the Northland, right?" asked rhetorically, An Ning smiled like a flower, her eyes stared at the night pearl for a moment, and she didn't look at the person next to her.

"That's, this is a good thing from the Western Regions, put it indoors at night, it's brighter than lighting a candle in a room, and you don't have to worry about walking water, it's very safe." Mr. Wu was patting himself on the back, completely unaware that he was digging a hole for himself.

"Then this thing must be worth a lot of money, right?"

Hearing this, Mr. Wu sneered and said, "No, it's not much money, it's all made up by us, and it's for Mrs. Hexi." ”

"Is it to congratulate me or am I afraid that I will turn over old accounts, so come to gag me, Manager Wu should know better than me." Putting down the bead, An Ning glanced at Chun Ying, and the smart maid understood, nodded and retreated, and took an abacus instead.

"Mr. Wu's monthly routine, how many people are in your palace, whether everyone has a share of this gift, how much money each of them makes every month, and how much they add to buy this thing, you report them one by one, let me calculate." The thin white fingers gently flicked on the abacus beads, and the ticking sound was obviously very crisp, but when it fell on the ears of Manager Wu, it was like a guillotine cutting his neck, clicking.

Seeing that he was sweating down, An Ning continued to smile and said, "Why, Manager Wu doesn't even know how many people he has under him, and the monthly schedule of each person, or does it mean that you bought this thing alone, then the Chief Manager has a lot of money." ”

Wu Youcai finally understood, An Ning was intent on fixing him, I don't know if it was for Liwei or revenge, anyway, his fart was slapped on the horse's hooves.

Kneeling on the ground with a thud, Manager Wu's voice was full of tears, "Mrs. Mingjian, this is really a little one squeezed out of between his teeth.....

"Mr. Wu, why bother, if you don't worship high and low on weekdays, you won't want to cut meat from your body now, what do you say?" An Ning gently blew the hot air on it while holding the tea, smiling from beginning to end, "Okay, I think this pearl is not bad, let's stay here first." ”

Wu Youcai thought that he had escaped, and got up with a thousand thanks, but before he could exit the door, he crashed into Tian Xin.

The chubby chamberlain had a disgusted face, rolled his eyes and said, "You are blind, beware of bumping into Your Majesty." ”

Scared out of sweat again, Manager Wu looked back at An Ning and then at Xun Yu, only to feel that his heart was about to jump out.

"Why is Your Majesty here?" Calling sweetly, the man's eyebrows furrowed slightly, looking at her for some bad ideas.

"I'm here to see you, are you tired, is the child okay?" Obviously, she asked someone to call her, what's going on now, do you want to pretend to meet by chance?

"Everything is fine with the concubine, Si Gongtai has sent His Majesty's rewards, the concubine is very happy, and I want to go to thank you."

Xun Yu felt that the goosebumps all over his body were about to fall, and gently squeezed her hand, warning her that if she was so weird again, he would not cooperate.

An Ning smiled at him Nunu and motioned for him to look at the pearl of the night.

"What is this?" His brows tightened a little more, and seeing that Xun Yu's face was not very good, Wu Youcai was preempted by An Ning before he could speak.

"It was given to me by the head of Sigongtai Wu, is it good-looking? What about Xiliang's objects? ”

When the word "Xiliang" was spoken, An Ning deliberately bit harder, but the smile on his face did not decrease at all.

"How can you have something Xiliang?" Tian Xin suddenly asked, this night pearl is worth a lot of money, although the Western Regions have been very quiet in recent years, but only on major festivals will give one or two, it is impossible for a person like Mr. Wu to afford it.

Raising his eyes and bumping into the eyes of Xunyu Yin Owl, Wu Youcai was miserable, and he didn't know what to say.

"Take it down and check it out." The man handed the night pearl to Tian Xin, and the chubby chamberlain seemed to be holding a hot potato, and responded again and again.

"Your Majesty had better check the entire Sigongtai, Manager Wu said, they pooled money to buy it, and the number of attendants in the Sigongtai is geometric, whether they can afford this thing or not remains to be considered."

Hearing this, he glared at Tian Xin, and Xun Yu's thin lips spit out a word, "Check." ”

When the people left, An Ning pulled the abacus beads in front of the salute sheet, "Your northern kingdom is really rotten when you hit the inner court, I only saw the pearl that night in the person who kidnapped me, I must have missed it during the inspection, and it fell into the hands of Wu Youcai, Xun Yu, you have to rectify the servants in the palace, you must first settle the inside, in the future, you and my grandfather will trade, Xiliang should keep an eye on it, and beware of the fire in the backyard." ”

"What, to be my virtuous helper and help me solve problems?" Xun Yu sat next to her, there was Kang Yingzhu in the front palace and Shen Lengyu in the back, the former was the one who followed her and the one who rebelled against her died, and the latter was impartial law enforcement, but no matter what kind of harem he didn't worry about, so Xun Yu couldn't imagine what it would be like if he was called an announcer to manage the harem.

But since it will be handed over to her sooner or later, it is good to practice in advance.

"You're pregnant now, don't work too hard, wait until you give birth to a child."

"Do you want me not to be too ostentatious now, and when I have a child, I will have the qualifications to help Concubine Shen Xian take care of the harem, right?"

chuckled, An Ning was very lazy, and didn't care about authority, "I have to raise a child after giving birth, I'm very tired, I just want to take care of the people in the palace, and I bow high and step on low again and again, so that changing my face is faster than turning a book, and I am tired of panicking for them." ”

She was worried that she didn't have a handle, Wu Youcai just bumped into her, she really stepped on the iron shoes and had nowhere to go, and it didn't take any effort to get it.

"Not all the people in the palace are like this, they can't hide when you don't want to be favored, who dares to come over, in case you get into trouble?"

"No matter how unfavored he is, he is also the master, and people cannot lose their dignity and humility, let alone lose their conscience. So can Your Majesty help me and punish these minions well. Pulling his sleeves and being coquettish, his eyes are like water, and the ripples can swing into people's hearts.

"Aren't you afraid that they will hold a grudge?" Xun Yu wanted to remind her not to be as pampered and arrogant as before, and wanted to know her true words.

"Endure the calm for a while, but I have endured it again and again, they still don't know how to converge, shouldn't they cut the grass and eradicate the roots, lest the spring breeze blow and grow again?"
