Chapter 121: Nine Achievements and Ambitions

Liang Jiugong looked at Mama Su's rude behavior without words, although Liang Jiugong is a cautious person, but now is not the time to pay attention to these, especially for a person like Mama Su, whose identity is unknown, Liang Jiugong has always been able to provoke less and provoke less. After all, if he encounters a hard stubble one day, he has no place to reason.

Liang Jiugong straightened the folds of his clothes, and followed the little palace maid to Concubine Zhao. Liang Jiugong saluted and said: "The slave has seen Zhao Concubine Niangniang, Niangniang Wanfu Jin'an,"

Yun Yao said: "Manager Liang, please get up!" ”

Liang Jiugong thanked him and said: "Thank you Zhao Concubine Niangniang, the slave has already called all the eunuchs and palace maids, and asked Niangniang to choose." ”

Yun Yao smiled and asked the little palace maid next to her to bring tea to Liang Jiugong and said, "Trouble Manager Liang!" , quickly serve a cup of tea to Mr. Liang. Mr. Liang must be busy, and the palace has to treat Mr. Liang. ”

Liang Jiugong looked at Yun Yao's slightly affectionate attitude, but it was extremely useful, and he felt that his hard work was in vain.

"Niangniang is polite, the slave Xie Niangniang's reward!" After Liang Jiugong thanked him, he took the cup of tea from the little palace maid.

Then he said: "Niangniang, this time these people are all nimble, Niangniang, let's see which one you want?" ”

In fact, Liang Jiugong's move can really be regarded as a rejuvenation, the people around the harem concubines were all selected by the queen from the internal affairs government by order, and the concubines had no choice at all, the only exception was Concubine Niu Hulu, and the others could only be used by the queen, so most of the harem concubines had the queen's eyeliner around them.

But now that the queen doesn't come forward, it turns out that Liang Jiugong arranged these things, and there is a certain choice, which makes Yun Yao wonder what is the reason why the queen and Concubine Niu Hulu are indifferent.

Therefore, Yun Yao asked tentatively: "This palace wants to ask Chief Manager Liang, I don't know when I want to meet the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager, this palace is not familiar with these rules when I just entered the palace." ”

Liang Jiugong was also a little speechless when he heard Yun Yao's words, this is not because Concubine Zhao said anything unacceptable, what Concubine Zhao said was actually the duty of concubines, and the show girls who entered the palace before were all concubines, so no one dared to say when they would meet the queen and others. So looking for Concubine Zhao to suddenly ask about this, Liang Jiugong didn't react a little.

He said: "Niangniang, the Empress Dowager is still recuperating from her injuries, so the emperor does not allow anyone to disturb the purity of the Empress Dowager." The Queen Mother is not like staying in the palace to chant Buddha now, so tomorrow the Queen Mother can meet the Queen Mother, as for the Queen Mother... The queen is now no stranger. ”

Yun Yao was a little flustered when she heard this: "Manager Liang, I don't know where this palace did wrong?" The queen mother didn't see the palace? ”

Liang Jiugong saw that Concubine Zhao had misunderstood because of his words, so he hurriedly explained, but the situation in the palace was a little difficult to say, so Liang Jiugong pondered: "Niangniang doesn't know, these days because Brother Ah was a little frightened a few days ago, so the queen mother has been taking care of Elder Brother, and she can't take care of managing palace affairs these days, so the emperor asked the Queen Mother to take care of it temporarily." ”

Yun Yao breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I see, the queen mother is really a mother's heart, Changshengtian will be moved when she sees the queen mother's motherly heart, and the little brother will definitely get better soon!" ”

Liang Jiugong pursed his lips in his heart when he heard Yun Yao's words, thinking that if the queen also had a motherly heart, then the little brother really poured eight lifetimes of mold and spread such a loving mother. What's more, the queen only left an ignorant little maid by the side of the little brother in that earthquake, and the others were all called away by the queen! Don't say whether the queen remembers the little brother, just saying that the consequences of this incident are enough to make the saint recognize the queen's unkindness!

If it weren't for the little maid who loyally protected the little brother, I'm afraid the little brother would have died a long time ago! But what did the queen do after that, she not only ordered all the people who served around the little brother to be beaten to death, but also dealt with the little maid for the crime of failing to protect the master.

If it weren't for the fact that the saint had already known about the queen's actions, I am afraid that even the life of that little palace maid would not be guaranteed. But even so, the emperor just transferred the palace maid to the Qianqing Palace and didn't care.

Liang Jiugong thought sadly of those palace maids and eunuchs who were killed by the queen's staff, and his heart was really afraid and angry, so Liang Jiugong was even more determined not to be close to the queen, not to mention that he and the queen had just formed a lot of grudges, Liang Jiugong naturally did not expect the queen to turn enemies into friends and live in peace with him.

And the emperor still chose to cover up when he saw that the queen had made such a big mistake, and even gave the queen an order to be grounded, but he said to the outside world that the queen's motherly heart wanted to take care of the little brother, Liang Jiugong knew at this time, the slave can never compare to the master, and the life and death of so many slaves are not enough to shake the queen's status, Liang Jiugong wants to find someone who can compete with the queen, so as to ensure that he will not be killed by the favored queen in the future.

And the first candidate Liang Jiugong thought of was the palace maid Dong who saved the little brother, not to mention that she obviously saved the little brother, but the queen wanted to take revenge and beat her to death. Moreover, there are many concubines in the emperor's harem, as long as he creates a few opportunities for the Dong family, presumably the Dong family will rise quickly, and even if he can't win the queen, he can still have a backer.

And the emperor still has a good impression of Dong's behavior of being able to save his only son, although this little favor is nothing, but it is enough for Dong to become a favorite concubine.

Therefore, Liang Jiugong took the Dong family as the object of investigation, but Liang Jiugong observed for a while and found that although this Dong family is also handsome, and it is also the type that the saint likes, but the Dong family is not a smart person, although she also hates the queen mother, but she does not have the courage to do anything, if she is regarded as an alliance, she is likely to be killed.

And the most important thing is that Liang Jiugong found that the emperor was likely to know all his actions, so the emperor had told the Dong family in front of him last time, and Liang Jiugong finally got involved. But the sage's eyes made Liang Jiugong feel that he didn't have any secrets in his body, so Liang Jiugong didn't do anything more, and then Liang Jiugong gave up the Dong line.

Therefore, Liang Jiugong thought that the person in front of him at the moment was probably his lifeline. Liang Jiugong didn't think about looking for Zhao Concubine, but Liang Jiugong was still a little ambitious in his heart, Zhao Concubine had a good family background, and she ranked third in the harem as soon as she entered the palace, this kind of arrogant girl in the sky was probably not something that he could control as a eunuch at all, so Liang Jiugong didn't think deeply about this idea.

And now that the emperor knows his every move, Liang Jiugong is unwilling to let the ideas in his heart be realized, and at this moment, Liang Jiugong received a commission from Qi Wei again, saying that he wanted him to take care of it a little in the harem.

Liang Jiugong finally decided to take this opportunity to get close to Concubine Zhao at this time, otherwise if he missed this opportunity, there would probably be little hope in the future. So Liang Jiugong talked about what Qi Wei asked him to do in front of the saint.

Liang Jiugong was sure that the Holy Lord would agree to Qi Wei's request, because Liang Jiugong knew that the emperor was going to reuse Tuhai these days. Sure enough, in the end, the emperor promised to let him take care of Concubine Zhao's entry into the palace, and even asked him to take more care of him.

Therefore, Liang Jiugong was extremely concerned about the entry of Zhao Concubine into the palace this time, and even pulled out the chess pieces that other people in the harem had placed in the Yongshou Palace and kicked them away.

Now is the time to test his own results, Liang Jiugong is very excited, and he is also worried that Concubine Zhao will not look down on his kindness, just like the original queen. But today, Liang Jiugong found that Concubine Zhao's temper was much better than that of the queen, which made him feel a little more comfortable.

Liang Jiugong thought about so many things because of Yun Yao's words, and he was a little flustered for a while. Suddenly, he heard someone call him: "Manager Liang? What's wrong with you, are you tired? ”

Only then did Liang Jiugong come back to his senses and found that he was out of his mind. hurriedly asked for sin: "Concubine Zhao forgives her sins, the slave actually lost her mind, it is really a crime that deserves death!" As he spoke, he knelt down and kowtowed.

Yun Yao hurriedly asked Liang Jiugong to help him up and comforted: "Manager Liang doesn't have to make this big gift, presumably Manager Liang is tired today, so it's better to go back and have a good rest, so as not to lose energy when serving the emperor." ”

Liang Jiugong got up and said: "Thank you for your compassion, it's just that the slave hasn't reported to the mother yet!" However, Liang Jiugong looked at Yun Yao's somewhat smiling eyes, and secretly sighed in his heart that his previous preparations were probably in vain, so he hurriedly remedied and explained: "The slave just heard Niangniang talk about the queen's motherly heart, so I thought of Niangniang." ”

Yun Yao became interested and asked, "I don't know what is on this palace that makes Chief Manager Liang hang?" ”

Liang Jiugong replied: "I'm afraid I don't know, when you were just ordered to enter the palace by the saint, your uncle came to the slave to take care of you in front of the slave, this slave didn't dare to agree, after all, you are the master, and it was said that the slave should take care of it, but Lord Qiwei stalked him, and all the eighteen martial arts came out, and in the end the slave could only agree." Therefore, the servant specially asked the emperor for this errand to settle for you. ”

Liang Jiugong seemed to be chanting and singing, as if he really had to do it at that time, which caused everyone in the palace to snicker.

And Yun Yao smiled genuinely when she heard this, and said, "That's really troublesome father-in-law, presumably the uncle of this palace has caused a lot of trouble to Chief Manager Liang!" ”

Liang Jiugong hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head: "Where is Niangniang, if it weren't for Lord Qiwei who saved the saint and the slave in that earthquake, the slave would have gone to report to Lord Yama!" This is all the blessing of Lord Tuo Qiwei! ”

Yun Yao said with a smile: "Chief Liang is too exaggerated, the situation of that day in the palace was also told by my uncle, and the earthquake that day was not a big battle, even without the uncle of the palace, the saint and the chief Liang will be fine!" Manager Liang doesn't have to put gold on the face of the uncle of the main palace! ”

Liang Jiugong saw that although Yun Yao was modest, he was actually very happy, and he didn't know that he had praised the idea. So he made persistent efforts and said: "Eh, Niangniang's words are wrong, although the battle that day was really not big, but no one knew about it before the incident, so Lord Qiwei's loyalty is also praised!" And it's not that no one is injured in the palace, if the saint breaks a little oily skin, the minions don't dare to be careless! ”

"What Father-in-law Liang said is exact! It can be seen that my uncle has done something good! Yun Yao commented with a smile.

"Niangniang's duplicity, the slave is very happy to see Niangniang, and the slave looks at the relationship between Niangniang and Master Qiwei, just like a father and daughter!" Liang Jiugong Dao.

"What Father-in-law Liang said is that going to the Japanese Palace is the only girl in the family's life, so my uncle will inevitably love him more." Yun Yao recalled.

Liang Jiugong saw Yun Yao smile happily, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he didn't dare to delay any longer, worried that something would go wrong. Hurriedly said: "Niangniang, why don't you choose a slave first, the slave will disturb Niangniang's auspicious time in a while!" ”

When Yun Yao saw Liang Jiugong say this, she immediately blushed and didn't dare to say anything. After a while, he said: "What Manager Liang said is, let's choose!" ”

Liang Jiugong nodded yes, and then ordered the people waiting outside the door to come in, and then introduced to Yun Yao: "Niangniang, the first few rows are all palace maids to be selected, in addition to the two palace maids you brought into the palace, you also need to choose four, and the two rows of small eunuchs in the back, according to the usual you should have ten, but in addition to the two eight-rank chiefs, there are also two eunuchs who run errands for you, and the rest are rough eunuchs." ”

Yun Yao nodded, and looked at the palace maids and eunuchs below. Seeing this, Liang Jiugong commanded: "You all raise your heads and let Niangniang take a look." ”

Yun Yao carefully observed the palace maids standing in the hall, then clicked on one of them and asked, "What's your name?" ”

The palace maid looked very steady and said: "The slave's maid is Baimei, and I have seen Concubine Zhao!" ”

Yun Yao looked at Bai Mei and was very excited, but she didn't dare to show anything unusual, lest others suspect her. Therefore, he forcibly suppressed his excitement and said: "Seeing that you are a good one, follow this palace to be a big palace maid!" ”

Liang Jiugong looked at the candidate for Yun Yao's point and muttered a little, he also knew this Bai Mei, but Bai Mei was a person in the secret guard, that is, the emperor's manpower, how could Concubine Zhao hit her at once? However, it was relieved to think that Qi Wei had been the deputy commander of the Dark Guard, maybe this was the person Qi Wei had prepared for Zhao Concubine.

However, Liang Jiugong also wondered that Qi Wei was not afraid of the taboo of the saint, Liang Jiugong didn't know at the moment, in order to let the saint not suspect it, Qi Wei insisted on telling Kangxi all the people who were absolutely loyal to him in the secret guard, and there were only a few, so Kangxi readily agreed to Qi Wei's confession.

Then Yun Yao pointed to a few palace maids and said, "What are your names?" ”

"Qi Yu Niangniang, the slave maid is called Erya." A palace maid with a round face replied first, this palace maid looked extremely festive, and the old people felt that such a face was blessed. And the natural aesthetics of the three worlds that Yun Yao has experienced are somewhat biased towards the elderly.

"Qi Yu Niangniang, the slave maid is called Cui'er." A well-spoken palace maid.

"Qi Yu Niangniang, the slave maid is called Rui'er." Finally, the palace maid also said.

Yun Yao said with satisfaction: "Manager Liang, the palace maid wants these few!" ”

Liang Jiugong looked at the corners of these palace maids' mouths twitching, he didn't expect that the people chosen by Zhao Concubine were all the people arranged by his own family, of course, at least they were his own people in the eyes of Zhao Concubine. Liang Jiugong thought that Yun Yao would at least leave a few to do eyeliner in other palaces, but he didn't expect him to think too much.

"Niangniang, the names of several of them are a little difficult to get into the elegant hall, so I also asked Niangniang to give them names." Liang Jiugong Dao.

The four palace maids knelt down together and said, "Please give the name of the master." ”

Yun Yao thought for a while and said: "Baimei's name won't change, this palace sounds very good, as for the few of you, the second girl is called Rufu, Rui'er is called Ruorui, and Cui'er is called Xuncui!" ”

Several people saluted excitedly: "Thank you for the name." ”
