Chapter 18: The Newcomer

It is said that Mama Jiang explained the matter properly and returned to Renshou Palace.

The smile on Han Shanggong's face cooled, and after a few words of caution to her, he continued to plant her flowers and plants.

The bright smile on Zhang Sishe's face also became more sarcastic, he raised his hands, glanced at him coldly, and said coldly: "Come with me, take you to the office to see, my original deputy is making a kang screen, because he drew the wrong order of a phoenix, he was seen by the queen mother, and he was sentenced to beheading."

This kang screen will be made by you, as for how to do it, I will teach you, first, to see if you can eat this bowl of rice, and secondly, to let you know that the people of the Shanggong Bureau can come in without relying on their mouths to speak, or to show people's hearts.

There must always be real talent and real learning, and only then can you continue to do it, in order to be recognized and appreciated by the masters. ”

calmly agreed, and followed her to the kang screen.

Zhang Sishe pointed to the half-painted kang screen and said, "Do you know which phoenix is in the wrong order?" ”

Calmly stretched out his fingers.

Zhang Sishe's face was slightly moved, but he continued: "How to draw this picture of a hundred phoenixes in order to win the favor of the Queen Mother?" ”

Calmly bowed, and slowly spoke: "Lord Si, if this kang screen is dedicated to the Queen Mother and her old man, then there can only be one phoenix on this hundred phoenix map."

As long as the Queen Mother is there, which lady dares to call herself a phoenix? Moreover, since the filial piety of the queen Bintian, the emperor has not yet established a new one, and no one dares to call himself a phoenix.

The slave dared to say something, that sister was afraid that she would not be sentenced because she had drawn the wrong order of the phoenixes, and what made her really punished was the idea of this hundred phoenix pictures! ”

When Zhang Sishe heard this, his face turned as white as snow, and he sat on the chair against the wall, and only after a while did he let out a breath.

"Lord Si, calmness is just a bunch of nonsense, and I hope that Lord Si Shi will not be more serious, and for the sake of being calm and still a newcomer, I will forgive the presumptuous boldness of calm."

Calmly and politely, he said with a modest attitude.

Zhang Sishe stretched out his hand and straightened his chest vigorously, his complexion slowly returned to normal, his eyes moved to calm, and he didn't let go for a long time.

"Calm down, this Baifeng diagram is what Mama Jiang told you?" Zhang Sishe asked a little unwillingly.

Although she refused to say it, she was actually horrified in her heart, she and the deputy director really didn't expect this layer, and it was she Zhang Sishe who decided to draw a hundred phoenixes on the kang screen.

If it weren't for a calm reminder today, I am afraid that a few people will die for this kang screen, and she may not know what the reason is.

Although Empress Dowager Liu looks generous on the surface, she is actually a villain with a rat's belly and chicken intestines, which everyone knows.

I am also very careful when doing things, for fear of arousing the jealousy of the Queen Mother.

But what Zhang Sishe never expected was that this hundred phoenix diagrams, which had been circulated in the palace for nearly a hundred years, would also arouse the jealousy of the queen mother.

Although she had to admit that she was calm and meticulous and cautious, she was still a little unconvinced in her heart, and refused to believe it all, the Queen Mother killed the deputy secretary because there was more than one phoenix on this hundred phoenix map.

"Leng Si She, the Queen Mother will use this kang screen for her birthday next month, since you are well versed in the thoughts of the Queen Mother and her old man, and you can see that there is something wrong with this picture, then hurry up and draw the kang screen.

Because of this kang screen, our division is also ridiculed in the four divisions of the Shanggong Bureau, and we hope that you can become famous because of this kang screen, and let us set up the division to become the head of the four divisions again. ”

Zhang Si set up and said solemnly.

responded calmly, but only smiled bitterly in his heart.

It was clearly to give her a dismount, but he said it like a high-sounding one, as if it gave her a lot of glory.

These women are living hypocritical lives.

"Leng Sishe, come with me, I have ordered someone to clean up your room, and when I come back, I will let Zhanhong and Yinglu go back to the Huanyi Bureau with you to move your things."

Zhang Sishe, with a calm hand, led her to a nearby east wing.

Calm and busy, I thanked her again.

"Look at you, you're really polite, I live next door to you, just look for me if you have something, just chat with me when you're bored, since you can do things together, that's the fate of God's gift, we will be good sisters in the future, we want to support each other, don't you say?" Zhang Sishe said with a smile.

Calmly agreed.

Zhang Sishe ordered Zhanhong and Yinglu to go back to the Huanyi Bureau with her to move things.

In the meantime, I will not list them one by one.

The next day, Calm moved into the Division, and Zhang Commander gathered all the sisters in the Division to the hall of the Division and introduced Calm to everyone.

Most of the sisters have neither a good nor a bad impression of the new deputy director, but they will see how they get along with her later when they get along.

Only two people were not convinced.

One is Kong Lingci, who has the best skills in the department, and the position of deputy director should be succeeded by her senior sister according to the regulations.

She was also ready to make a competent deputy director.

And these days, she seems to be walking around the department as a deputy director.

This sudden landing of a deputy commander out of thin air really kicked her out of her sweet dream, making her hold her breath but with nowhere to vent, so how could she not hate this foreign intruder?

The other is Ruan Meiling, Zhang Sishe's henchman.

Ruan Meiling wants to be the deputy director for a day or two, she grovels, has always been Zhang Sishou's minion, and does everything possible to please Zhang Sishou, just to one day, she can be this deputy director.

Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother's decree made her dream that was about to come true shattered into scum.

How can she be convinced?

"Master Si, look at her hanging eyes, it is clearly a restless appearance, maybe she seduced which father-in-law as a backer, before she was transferred to our Si Si, you see, she walks sideways,

Does she think that the Queen Mother personally sent her here, so that she can show off her power in front of you? ”

Ruan Meiling pouted and complained while beating Zhang Sishe's back.

Zhang Sishe ate the chilled grapes, spit out the skin into the crystal glass bottle in front of him, laughed when he ate, but sighed again: "Meiling, are you jealous and burned your brain?" People are obviously concentrating on painting, where do you see that she is restless? ”

"Lord Si, if she is safe, why would she rise so fast? Besides, since the beginning of the dynasty of the ancestors, I have never heard of a humble laundry maid who can be transformed into a female historian in the palace, let alone be a deputy secretary. ”

Ruan Meiling said.

"Damn Ruan Meiling, don't slap your mouth yet! When you say that, are you questioning the arrangement of the Queen Mother and her old man? How many heads did you grow enough for the Queen Mother to cut off? ”

Zhang Sishe straightened his face and shouted.

Ruan Meiling's face turned white and blue in an instant, and she fell to the ground with a tom, and slapped herself in the mouth.

"Say you're stupid, you're stupid, with her, we can have a leisure, what's wrong? With benefits, it is naturally set up by me, and if there is a mistake, I just push it on her, anyway, she is the person appointed by the Queen Mother, even if she makes a mistake, the Queen Mother can only pretend not to know. ”

Zhang Sishe sneered, raised his foot and kicked Ruan Meiling.

She has been trying to accept a caring confidant all these years, but unfortunately, these girls in the division are all useless things.

It's good that Kong Lingci has outstanding craftsmanship, but he is arrogant and can't be ambushed.

Only this one Ruan Meiling is willing to listen to her mercy, but she is an elm head, which will only annoy her.

She has really not been happy all these years, she has no good friends, no decent opponents, and she is really boring.

Zhang Sishe looked through the mottled bead curtain and looked at the calm of concentrating on painting outside, thinking about a question that is indeed worth thinking about: should you treat her as a friend or as a rival?

A female historian walked in with a sad face holding a delicate jasper amphora pheasant bottle.

Zhang Sishe looked at her appearance, and felt inexplicably bored in his heart, and couldn't help shouting: "Why is it sad to lose your face?" But if you don't grow, you will only cry and mourn all day long! ”

"Master Si, this jasper bottle suddenly cracked somehow, a big crack." The female history handed the Tianji bottle to Zhang Sishe with both hands.

Zhang Sishe's face turned pale, stood up, took the jasper bottle, looked at it twice, slapped the female history on the head, and said angrily: "Damn thing, I only tell you to be cautious on weekdays, you are good, you make mistakes every day, this day the chicken bottle is a congratulatory gift to the Queen Mother, and now like this, how do you let me explain to the Queen Mother?" ”

The female history knelt on the ground with her cheeks covered and began to cry.

"Howl, you know howl! This jasper is unique in the world, and it was good when it came, but let's paint it on it and add ears, and now it's like this, but it's not damned! ”

Zhang Sishe roared impatiently.

Ruan Meiling hurriedly came over to fan her, persuading her to calm her anger and be careful.

Zhang Sishe sat down, glared at the female historian, and shouted: "Get out!" ”

When the female historian heard this, she was as anxious as an edict from Taishang Laojun, kowtowed her head heavily and retreated.

"Si Shi, you must have an idea?" Ruan Meiling asked in a flattering tone.

Zhang Sishe sneered: "I don't have an idea, do you have an idea?" You've got an idea for me to hear? ”

Ruan Meiling touched her head and took two steps back, and sneered: "The slave is stupid and can't come up with a good idea." ”

"Go get some wax, I'll smooth out the crack first."

Zhang Sishe commanded.

Ruan Meiling went to get wax oil, but muttered in her heart, what kind of idea is this, she also thought of this idea, taking wax oil to smooth the cracks is just a superficial effort, a little later, after being touched by human hands, it will naturally fall off, and the cracks will be bigger and more ugly because of the wax oil.

Zhang Sishe smoothed out the cracks on the jasper pheasant bottle, looked at it carefully, and then saw a trace of flaw, nodded with satisfaction, handed the bottle to Ruan Meiling, and ordered with a suspicious smile: "Go, let Leng Sishe give this jasper amphora pheasant bottle to Concubine Guan." ”

"Master Si, this is a congratulatory gift from Concubine Ying!" Ruan Meiling said.

"Idiot! If you give this thing to Concubine Ying, do you think that according to her finesse, she will not be able to see that this bottle is broken? Zhang Sishe gritted his teeth and scolded her.

"But, but hasn't Concubine Ying always wanted to please the Queen Mother and her old man? That's why I tried my best to find this chicken bottle and wanted to give it to the Queen Mother, if we didn't give her this, wouldn't she be annoyed? Ruan Meiling said in a low voice.

Zhang Sishe sneered: "Since the emperor ascended the throne, the Queen Mother has always had a thorn in her heart, if Concubine Ying can pull out this thorn for her old man this time, you say, wouldn't it make the Queen Mother happier than giving a treasure?" “
