Chapter 103: Stumbling Block

Chu Tao covered her mouth and laughed twice: "Niangniang, do you really think that Wang Cainu can get into the eyes of the emperor?" She's old, and she's mediocre......"

"Then how did the emperor take a fancy to her six years ago?" Lin Yuan glanced at Chu Tao: "She must have something extraordinary, it is not easy to capture the emperor's heart, but it is much easier to get the emperor's attention." When Ziyouge An Shunyi was favored, it was just with a pair of white and tender hands, and there was no need for more good things, just a little bit. ”

After sending Wang Cainu to the house, Lin Yuan put down the dishes and chopsticks, freshened up and went out with the account book.

She's going to get down to business—that is, to go to the palaces to distribute monthly rituals.

Speaking of which, the work of distributing monthly cases is really not so easy to do. Those women who are not favored naturally do not need to think about it, but it is difficult to serve those who are favored. Those rare jewelry, silk, rouge, flowers and plants, everyone wants to take more, and whoever gives less and who has more, they can't help but make trouble.

The favored women in the palace don't need to live according to the palace rules, and you want them to divide things according to the rules? It's a dream.

Concubine Jing assigned this kind of work to Lin Yuan, and made it clear that she wanted to rectify her.

Lin Yuan first went to the Lintoe Palace, which was closest to Huayang Palace. Since the concubine left the palace, the Lintoe Palace fell overnight, and the concubines who did not have any status in the palace were all inhabited.

Such a palace is the easiest to deal with. Lin Yuan smoothly distributed the rewards of the emperor and the queen mother during the Spring Festival, and no one had any objections.

After that, he went to Qixiang Palace and threw all the things to the main seat Zhang Xiuyuan, and let her be responsible for the next division. There are two favorite concubines in Qixiang Palace, but their status is incomparable with An Shunyi, Lin Yuan is too lazy to care, if they are restless, let Zhang Xiuyuan deal with it.

After leaving Qixiang Palace, Lin Yuan went to several small palaces that were not in the flow for a few more trips, and then went to Xianfu Palace, which was as lifeless as Lintoe Palace.

So far so good.

The palace people who followed on the side were a little proud, and their own master was now also in charge of the palace, and they walked majestically.

Lin Yuan returned to the palace after a busy half of the day, took off her shoes and socks and leaned on the soft couch, tired all over. It's just a New Year's reward, half of the palace is around, it's already a little unbearable, and half of the places can't go.

I really don't know how Concubine Jing and the queen have the energy to do such trivial and boring things.

Let's wait for tomorrow to go to the rest of the place. Lin Yuan propped her head in a daze, wanting to take a nap.

Fang squinted, but there was a loud noise outside the hall. Lin Yuan looked up in annoyance, and Chu Tao came in a little panicked and said, "Niangniang, it's not good!" Several concubines made a fuss because of the New Year's Festival, and at this time they were kneeling in front of the palace gate of the Scarlet Mansion and crying, begging the mother to call the shots! ”

Lin Yuan came to her senses, sat up in one wall, and asked, "What are they doing?" Still on your knees begging to see me? ”

Having been an executive for many years in his previous life, Lin Yuan knew the difficulties of the new official taking office, and did not dare to slack off and go to the front hall. This is not good, but when I see it, my heart is even more annoyed, four or five concubines knelt in the hall of her main hall, and one of the Gao beauties was crying bitterly:

"Although the concubine has a humble status, she is also a person who serves the emperor, and she can't even get a Su embroidery horse in the New Year...... The portion of tea has also been deducted, and I can't live this day......"

Lin Yuan pressed the corners of his forehead, and sure enough, it was because of the trouble caused by the uneven distribution. She gritted her teeth and said slightly angrily: "Get up for this concubine!" Crying endlessly during the New Year, what kind of system! Gao Meiren, you come! How has your share been deducted? ”

"The noble concubine wants to be the master of the concubine!" Gao Meiren howled: "The concubine is a seven-grade beauty, and according to the regular Spring Festival, there are three brocades, eight taels of biluochun and head jewelry, but this year I haven't seen anything...... Li Fangyi's little lord is petted, and all the Su embroidery you have divided will be removed, and you won't leave a little bit for us people......"

"Oh, is it Li Fangyi who coveted your brocade?" Lin Yuan sat on the main seat, and she didn't even have the heart to drink tea: "When the concubine shared the reward, it was divided according to the rules, and there was no one missing." Gao Meiren, what the hell is going on with you? ”

"Niangniang, you are fair and have never shown favoritism, but the people who do things are not like this!" Gao Meiren cried even more: "I haven't seen what the concubine should get......"

Lin Yuan sighed in her heart when she heard this, this high beauty praised herself clearly, but in fact, she secretly ridiculed her inability to control her subordinates and let others cheat and play tricks.

Her eyes narrowed slightly. This high beauty......

The few accompanying concubines on the side shared the same hatred with the high beauty, and complained of bitterness. Only half of the silver was issued, and the jade antiques were greedy for ink, and even the tribute to the Bodhisattva during the New Year was not issued.

"Enough!" Lin Yuan slapped his palm on the small table.

These people are all low-ranking people, Lin Yuan favors the harem, they are afraid. Seeing her filming the case and getting angry, she couldn't help but be silent.

"You guys, all go back to the concubine." Lin Yuan's voice was grim: "I am in charge of the affairs of the month, you have grievances in your hearts, and you should cry to me." I know all your affairs, and I will give you justice within three days, and now you will all go back to the palace, and if you still make noise here, you will be punished for not keeping the etiquette of the year. ”

Gao Meiren was terrified, didn't dare to cry anymore, and hurriedly kowtowed and retreated. The rest of the people also hurriedly retreated. Lin Yuan looked at these people with annoyance and sighed slightly.

Palace affairs are not so easy to handle.

I knew something was going to happen!

Although she personally went to the palaces to distribute the gifts, it was impossible for her to personally hand them over to each palace concubine, and most of them were handed over to the lord's mother. Li Fangyi has been favored recently, she is a Jiangnan woman, she is pampered and arrogant and greedy for a lot of Su embroidery and tea, and the main seat Wang Shurong is an unfavored, where do you dare to fight with her?

But now that Gao Meiren and others have been deducted from things, they are not happy, and they find the Scarlet Building to make trouble, what should I do?

Could it be that Lin Yuan had to personally deliver things to each side hall? That's impossible, a manager, tired and tired to do things without good results.

Then you can only start with Li Fangyi and punish her for the crime of greedy ink to appease the anger of the public?

But Li Fangyi is not the only one who is greedy for ink, many favorite concubines do this, the law does not blame the public, does Lin Yuan have to deal with it one by one?

Cause these favorite concubines to target themselves with the same hatred?

Obviously, this is not a good way to do it either.

Although this matter is just a few low-level concubines making trouble, if the situation cannot be resolved in a good way, Lin Yuan will end up with a reputation of mediocrity and incompetence and incompetence in the palace. What's more, how many people in this palace are waiting for her to make a mistake, and as soon as this trick comes out, they are still not happy to die.

Painstakingly acquired authority was met with resistance on the first day. This is also something that Lin Yuan had expected a long time ago.

In fact, such a thing as distributing portions has never been fair in the palace. I wouldn't have made such a fuss before, because it's useless to make trouble, people are greedy and greedy, and they are clearly bullying you, and you are soft-spoken, what can you do? It's really troublesome to the emperor, the other party is favored and powerful, and it is himself who suffers.

Lin Yuan seemed to have a mirror in her heart, this time Gao Meiren dared to provoke an incident, and at the same time offended Li Fangyi and herself, there must be a side reason.

Oh, Wei Mizhuang, are you going to make a move so soon?

You're getting more and more out of your breath.

***

The second day is the third day of the first month. The custom in the first month of the new year is to visit relatives and friends on the second day of the new year, and fast and sacrifice on the third day of the new year, so most of the concubines will not go out on this day.

At the same time, it snowed heavily last night, and the road was muddy and difficult to walk, Lin Yuan walked on the official road and didn't meet a concubine. On a cold day, she also wanted to get into the bed, but she had to come out to work hard and suffer.

As if yesterday's hustle and bustle had never happened, Lin Yuan went to the palaces to distribute the gifts as usual. Naturally, she encountered a lot of trouble along the way, and the concubines of several palaces complained to her about the uneven distribution, and even in the Qixiang Palace, two nobles quarreled in front of her, just for a basket of silver charcoal.

One of the two was a slightly favored one, claiming to be weak and afraid of the cold in winter, and opening his mouth to take half more coal. The other person didn't give up, and the two pinched it like that.

Lin Yuan didn't mediate, threw down his things, ordered the master of Qixiang Palace to control the two, and left under the pretext that he had something to do. On the way, Chuxue asked her with a sad face: "The distribution of Boxing rites has been blocked everywhere, and these concubines did not dare to make trouble in the past, but now it is clear that they can't get along with your mother." If it goes on like this, the sound of quarrels in the palace will continue, and it will reach the ears of the emperor......"

"Just by them, you want to toss me?" Lin Yuan sneered, and when he looked back, he saw the tallest gilded temple not far away—it was the Buddha Hall of Changle Palace.

In addition to Changle Palace, there is only one palace nearby, which is Bixiao Palace.

The coldness at the corner of his lips was even worse, and he took Chu Xue's hand and ordered, "Let's go to Bixiao Palace." This year's gift is almost over, the Bixiao Hall is far away, but the master inside is a high position, so we should go over as soon as possible. ”

"Bixiao Palace?!" Chu Xue was dumbfounded: "It's just that the beauties are against Niangniang, this one in Bixiao Hall is the most difficult to deal with, Niangniang, you are not afraid that she will make any more trouble......"

Lin Yuan raised her hand to interrupt her: "The more difficult it is to deal with, the less we can show our cowardice." Let's go, maybe there are good things waiting for this trip. ”

Concubine Wen has lived in the Bixiao Hall for more than a year, this place was originally desolate, but since the resurgence of the Concubine Wen and the adoption of King Zhao, the Bixiao Palace also has a bit of a golden and brilliant taste. The Xu family has a high temperament and does not like gold and jade ornaments, but this does not mean that the Bixiao Hall is blindly simple and elegant-

When Lin Yuan stepped into this palace, he saw that the front yard was repaired into a stone bridge with white marble, the flower garden was planted with expensive "Bingrui" narcissus, and the nine-curved corridor and the mountain screen were carved beams and paintings, painted with birds, beasts, flowers and plants.
