Chapter 212: Tiger Chapter 213: A Family (160 Pink Tickets)
The Queen Mother saw Concubine Rou and Concubine Li open their mouths one after another, and anger flashed in her eyes, as shrewd, as if she had experienced a cruel battle and sent her son, who was not in good health, to the throne, she could naturally see the careful thinking of the two concubines very clearly; That's why she gets angry.
Now her son is sick and bedridden, but her son's concubines are only interested in fighting for power and profitβno matter how she treated the first emperor in the first place, but now she must not tolerate the two concubines treating her son like this.
However, when she heard the words of the two concubines agree, her eyes flashed with surprise, and she looked at them carefully, trying to see it from their expressions; But the eldest girl and Hongluan are both from palace slaves, and the queen mother knows some things about Hongluan because of spells, but she doesn't know everything about Hongluan, and it is impossible to know everything: Hongluan is just a little girl, not a princess of Shanggong, nor a concubine in the palace, how can the queen mother know Hongluan in detail in detail? It is impossible for a person who does things to tell the Queen Mother about things that have nothing to do with spells.
Therefore, the intimate relationship between the eldest girl and Hongluan is not clear to the Queen Mother, even if the Queen Mother knows that Concubine Rou is a little different from Hongluan, she does not know that Concubine Rou has special love for Hongluan, who was born as a palace slave; As for Concubine Li, the Queen Mother is even more unknown, because she doesn't know what Concubine Li used to think about the girl.
The Queen Mother knew that the interests of Concubine Rou and Concubine Li, whether they were sons or themselves, were absolutely different; At this time, she was able to nominate one person at the same time, and her gaze softened: it could only be said that they were frightened by the spell today, and they somewhat understood that all they thought about was how to share the emperor's worries and calm the harem.
"You have been in charge of the affairs of the palace for many years, and they all say that the palace maid is good, it must be good, so let's do what you ask." The Queen Mother opened her mouth and agreed: "You also have to think more about the emperor, don't let things happen in the palace again, that is, your filial piety to the mourning family, that is, to your emperor." β
Concubine Li and Concubine Rou are both human beings, and when they heard the Queen Mother's words, they immediately understood that they had almost attracted the Queen Mother's anger just now; But the palace slave house was involved in spells, and it was said that it could not fall into the hands of others: if it was used to frame him, it would really be a catastrophe.
Otherwise, they would not have taken the liberty of speaking to the Queen Mother at this time. It is because they are afraid of causing the Queen Mother to be angry, and the opposition of the palace concubines will make the Queen Mother angry, so the two of them will generally not use their own people - no matter who wants to use their own people to go to the palace slave courtyard, let alone the palace slave courtyard, now whoever wants to install their own people into the Shangqin Bureau, even if it is not the Ministry of Works, will attract the attention of other people in the palace.
The eldest girl is a little sure of the two concubines, and the eldest girl is not a person from any palace concubine in the palace, so there is no need to worry that anyone will object; What Concubine Rou thinks is that the eldest girl is a good sister of Hongluan, and there is not much difference between the palace slave courtyard in the hands of the eldest girl and in the hands of Hongluan, she can make the affairs in the palace slave courtyard all under her control; And Concubine Li is because she didn't give a "favor" to the big girl, and the big girl didn't have a low touch and was close to her, as long as she thought about it, the palace slave courtyard was in her palm.
Most of the other palace concubines heard the name of the eldest girl for the first time, knowing that she was not the person of the two concubines, and with the permission of the queen mother, everyone did not object, but just thought about how to buy the eldest girl: even if the purchase failed, the eldest girl should be grateful to them, at least have a good impression.
The prince didn't make a sound, and he had no room to speak about such harem matters; Don't say that the queen mother is present, even if the queen mother is not there, he has no right to dictate the affairs of his father's harem.
Hongluan heard the two concubines mention the name of the eldest girl, her eyelids moved slightly, her body did not move, and she knelt on the ground like Engineer Li; Her duty is to obey the orders of the nobles in the palace and serve the nobles properly, so even if the nobles appoint a new head of the palace slave court, she can't speak in terms of her duty.
Since Li Sigong, Hongluan has really learned the word "duty", which is not a literal thing, but a talisman to save his life.
Big girl, the bits and pieces of the big girl and her are with her; Hongluan is still satisfied with this result, isn't she even more helpless when the palace slave courtyard falls into the hands of others; I'll talk about the rest of that when I get back.
Hongluan still has something unclear, and it is reasonable for the Queen Mother to deal with her, and she is fortunate not to have a big killing; However, the palace maid in charge of the palace slave courtyard is just an ordinary palace maid, and no first-class palace maid and second-class palace maid come to the palace slave courtyard to work as an errand - needless to say, it is the original identity, as long as she is sent to the palace slave courtyard as the aunt in charge, then she will be demoted to the palace maid.
However, Hongluan was not demoted to a palace maid, but became a second-class diligent palace maid, which was inconsistent with the original rules of the palace slave court; It's just that her diligent palace maid was given by the queen mother herself, even the imperial concubine didn't dare to say: her identity in the palace slave courtyard is a little embarrassing, and her status as a palace maid is a bit high, which is not appropriate.
If she doesn't be a palace maid, can she still do it? Hongluan thought about the Queen Mother's intentions in her heart: The Queen Mother wants to do it.
After the queen mother disposed of the affairs of the palace slave courtyard, after eating a few sips of tea, she put down the phoenix-patterned tea cup in her hand, and her eyes swept coldly over the concubines: "I didn't ask about the spell today, but a six-rank priest has died, and you all understand the rest of the words, right?" There are many words without mistakes, and you don't need to bother with the next things, you all go back to the mourning family and think about it behind closed doors, if someone thinks about it, it's best to ask for sin; No one came to ask for guilt, but no one in the edict has been in prison for many years, and some people are uncomfortable when they are idle. β
The concubines knelt down and said yes, and no one dared to say more; At this time, it is really a matter of saying more and making more mistakes, and not saying that there is no mistake.
The Queen Mother waved her hand and asked her to drag Engineer Li down to play the board, and glanced at Hongluan again: "The mourning family can't favor one over the other, you can also accompany your Engineer Lord, and you can be an errand in the future." β
Hongluan was demoted to a second-class palace maid and removed from the post of head of the court, and the punishment was not light compared to Li Sigong; But the Queen Mother spoke, and Hongluan bowed to the Queen Mother in a proper manner, and let someone catch her and Li Sigong out of the hall together.
She understands that the Queen Mother is knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger by doing this today, but the tiger is afraid that it will not be able to shake out; Such a terrible thing, since you have done it, you will grit your teeth and deny it if you are found out, and if you jump out and admit it, you will really be a fool.
There are people in the palace, and it's hard to say whether there are real fools, but there are absolutely no fools who can be concubines for concubines; Whether it is a curse or the master behind the flower master, it is impossible to be a fool.
The two concubines have been in the palace for many years, but they didn't find anyone hiding in the shadows, how could they be incompetent; The Queen Mother is afraid that she understands, Hongluan suddenly figured it out, the Queen Mother is not going to shake one or two tigers, she wants to shake all the big and small tigers in the palace.
Chapter 213: A Family
Engineer Li was very cooperative and knelt on the bench, looked at Hongluan and smiled bitterly: "I've bothered you." Her face was a little narrow, but this smile made people see a little loyalty: "Go back and let someone send you some Jinchuang medicine, although it is not the best in the palace, but it is better than what you can get." β
Hongluan was learning her to lie on the bench honestly, she didn't expect her to talk to herself, and shook her head again and again in flattery: "The adult is wrong, it is the slave and the maid who have caused the adult." She stammered a little, and her voice was quieter in the back than in the front.
Li Sigong smiled: "You just entered the palace and don't understand, alas, it's me who is stupid; Even the last five boards are for you to suffer because of me. She was tied up, looked at Hongluan and said, "Biting the cork, it will be five boards soon." β
The eunuchs who beat people didn't pay attention to Hongluan and Engineer Li, and brought the cork over after tying them up.
Hongluan nodded hurriedly: "Thank you, my lord, it's really a slave and I'm sorry for the adult." "The cork was brought over, and the two could no longer speak.
Engineer Li lowered his head and snorted without snorting, letting the board fall on his body; Hongluan looked at Engineer Li, and her eyes showed that she couldn't bear it, but a board fell on her, and the pain made her no longer care about Engineer Li.
Li Sigong tilted his head slightly to look at Hongluan, biting the cork and putting his chin on the bench, the messy long hair fell down to cover most of her face, and the sweat on her face soaked the long hair.
Hongluan's mind turned to Engineer Li's body, trying not to think about the board on her body: just like when she was injured in a fight with a beggar or a hungry dog, the more she cared about it, the more painful it was, and she learned not to think about the painful place, and tried to forget it.
Engineer Li originally looked a little too serious, but now he looks like a good person, but he doesn't like to talk too much; In Hongluan's cranky thoughts, the five boards were quickly finished.
Hongluan had just been untied from the rope on her body, and when she wanted to get up, she heard a sound of footsteps, she looked up and saw the chief eunuch of Ci'an Palace running over with a few people, and the little eunuch who drank before he got close: "What doesn't have eyes, why don't you help the girl up?" β
The chief manager ran to the front and said a few words to Engineer Li, and after asking her if it mattered, he walked to Hongluan's side, and a chrysanthemum appeared on his face: "The girl is fine, do you want to send the girl back?" "In fact, Xing'er and the others are waiting outside Ci'an Palace, and they don't need anyone to send Hongluan at all.
The chief eunuch of the dignified Ci'an Palace, in the group of powerful eunuchs, it is a well-known role, the second most powerful eunuch in the palace, and the chief eunuch with real power is of course higher than him, but the same will give him three points of face: the emperor is not the same to give the queen mother a gift?
It is because the affairs of the chief manager of Ci'an Palace are only limited to matters related to the Queen Mother, so of course the power is much smaller, but the concubines in the palace have to greet him with a smile when they see him; But after he actually said a few words to Engineer Li, he treated Hongluan so affectionately that the hairs on Hongluan's whole body immediately stood up.
"I don't dare to be a slave, thank you for your care." Hongluan replied as respectfully as he could, not daring to pay attention to the pain on his body.
The chief manager hurriedly waved his hand: "Girl, this is not too polite, we will be a family in the future, if there is something to do, the girl will send someone to say something to the Sprinkle family, and the Sprinkle family will definitely send someone to the girl to do it properly." β
Family? Hongluan's eyes almost didn't fall to the ground, and she became a family with the people of Ci'an Palace; She has always been a down-to-earth person who knows who she is, and she was shocked by the words of the chief manager, and the back of her head was a chill.
"The slave doesn't understand what her father-in-law means, so she asks her father-in-law to make it clear." Hongluan almost knelt down, and the more affectionate the chief manager became, the more respectful she became; If she doesn't say this clearly today, she doesn't want to die one day and not know what's going on.
The chief manager looked at Hongluan so much that his legs trembled a little in pain, and turned around and scolded the little eunuchs: "The things that don't have long eyes, don't you see that Hongluan girl is injured, and you don't take the best Jinchuang medicine from the Sprinkle family?" I don't have any eyesight. β
After drinking and scolding the little eunuch and watching them rush away, his eyes turned around and narrowed into a thin slit with a smile: "Girl, don't be so polite," he patted his head for a moment: "Look at my brain, I forgot to tell the girl, you will be a person from Ci'an Palace in the future, and you will also do things for the Queen Mother when you are on an errand in the palace slave courtyard, right?" The monthly money, clothes for the four seasons, meals and fruits are all received according to the rules of Cining Palace - there is no need for the girl to run around, and someone will send the girl to you at that time. β
Hongluan looked at the chief manager with wide eyes, and his eyes were full of disbelief: how is this possible?
The chief manager smiled and said: "The Empress Dowager's ancestor ordered, you don't have to go to thank you if you are not lightly injured today, go back to do a good job, don't lose the face of our Ci'an Palace." β
Hongluan was reminded by him, so he hurriedly knelt down outside the hall and kowtowed a few times, thanking the queen mother in the palace; Then he was still helped up by the chief steward and the little eunuch. She only has one feeling now, and that is that her brain is not enough.
Li Sigong did not leave, she stood next to her and was waiting for Hongluan, when she heard the words of the chief manager, she glanced at the queen mother's hall, and walked over to Hongluan to say hello: "You are really a blessing, and it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise." β
She had just talked to Hongluan, and the intimate tone didn't make Hongluan unbearable; But Hongluan suddenly learned that the Queen Mother had taken her to Ci'an Palace, and she didn't know how to react when she heard Engineer Li's words, so it was best to use her usual skills when she was a beggar: it was the first time she used it after entering the palace; He laughed stupidly a few times and didn't say anything.
The chief manager told Hongluan a few more words, and gave her the waist card and a palace card: "The Sprinkle family still has to serve the queen mother's ancestor, girl, you don't need someone to send it back on the way slower; If you have something, come to Ci'an Palace to find me, by the way, look at the brains of the Sprinkle family, the surname of the Sprinkle family is Ma, and the girls in the family should not be polite with the Sprinkle family. After speaking, he nodded slightly to Li Sigong, smiled at Hongluan and led people away.
Hongluan stared at her back blankly, her mind didn't turn at all, and there was only one thought back and forth: Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
It wasn't until the little eunuch next to Mr. Ma sent the best Jinchuang medicine, Hongluan did not fully recover, and took the Jinchuang medicine stiffly, seeing that the little eunuch did not leave immediately before he saved to give some benefits, and he did not touch the silver money on his body before he remembered that he came to Ci'an Palace today to accept the sin, and he did not bring silver with him.
