The Queen Mother finally became the new master of the harem, and the first thing to do was to establish rules, and it was inevitable to set up the province in the morning and dusk.

Some time ago, because Yuehua was seriously injured and was about to nourish her body, Chang Lingyan was pregnant again, so many iron-clad rules for asking for safety were special. Now, there are no rules, and Concubine Ling took the initiative to ask for good morning as always.

The Queen Mother wanted to give Yuehua a dismount in front of everyone, the east wind pressed the west wind, so that everyone in the palace could understand whose face they should look at when doing things.

The Forbidden City is not big, it is not small, and there is no impermeable wall.

Concubine Ling had already reported to her that Yuehua ate alone and occupied the crystal persimmons, and she didn't forget to add oil and vinegar at the end: "She Chu Yuehua is inevitably too blind, and she doesn't even take the Queen Mother in her eyes." The steward of the Internal Affairs Office also tended to be inflammatory, and took the emperor's intention to the Queen Mother to please her, with the face of a dog slave. ”

The Queen Mother swallowed her anger for many years, although she handled the trivial things in the harem, including trivial things, but there are some things that she is dumb and eats dumplings, and she knows it.

Over the years, she has been like a housekeeper with the key to the palace, working hard to get things done in the palace, and the Empress Dowager is the real master of the command, and her hand can reach any corner of the Forbidden City.

She is under the control of the Empress Dowager all the time, including the Internal Affairs Office, and is in charge of the entire harem for food and clothing. The chief manager Ronggui is the only Empress Dowager who is the head of the horse, and she obeys the old woman's words, and she disobeys her own yang and yin, and she doesn't know how many things she has done behind her back.

The people in the entire harem don't take themselves seriously, they are regarded as transparent air, and the people who bowed down to the Empress Dowager at the beginning, she also knows it in her heart, and she remembers every account clearly in her heart.

Now that she has finally raised her eyebrows, the tiger is not powerful, do all the people in this palace regard themselves as sick cats? It's long overdue to let those minions who tend to be inflammatory, leave the keys and get out.

Kill a hundred people, Ronggui, a minion, must not stay! The Queen Mother had a plan at that time, and she must find a reason, and ordered someone to remove Rong Gui's steward position and leave the palace, so as to establish her prestige in the palace.

The second thing she has to do is to teach Yuehua a lesson, one is to grow her own majesty, and the other is to avoid Yuehua being pampered and arrogant, becoming more and more rampant, and even riding on her head as a prestige. It just doesn't make sense!

Concubine Ling was the first to arrive, dressed up in fancy clothes, and looked forward to it excitedly.

Concubine Crane and others also came one after another, and the Ruian Palace gradually became lively.

Even Chang Lingyan was well-behaved, supported by the palace people, and was cautious all the way.

Concubine Ling's eyes lit up when she saw her, and she stepped forward and circled around her twice, praising her.

"Concubine Lian has a body, and she still works hard to get up in the morning to say goodbye, and her filial piety is commendable."

Chang Lingyan smiled wryly: "It's not hard, it should be." ”

"It's different with a body, it's reborn, and it looks extravagant."

Chang Lingyan thought that he would usher in a sneer, but he didn't expect Concubine Ling to be so abnormal, and as soon as they met, she praised herself, and she was a little at a loss.

"Concubine Ling has won the prize."

Concubine Ling said with a smile: "Where is it, it's just that the body is a little cheaper." ”

"You!" Chang Lingyan was suddenly so angry that he smoked.

Concubine Ling was full of pride: "With such a lowly body, pregnant with a wild seed, is it really as precious as a dragon?" ”

"Ling'er!"

The Empress Dowager stepped in and interrupted her words unhappily, although the Empress Dowager has collapsed, there is nothing to avoid, but this is not a glorious thing after all, it is a matter of the emperor's face, how can he say it unscrupulously in public?

Concubine Crane and the others looked at each other, puzzled by what they meant, and waited to see a good show.

Chang Lingyan's face was bruised, and he cried at the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, do you just let her slander the concubine like this?" ”

The Queen Mother glanced at her coldly, and lowered her voice and squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth: "Is it to slander yourself and know it in your heart." ”

Chang Lingyan felt aggrieved, but he also knew himself, and when he told Concubine Ling in front of the Queen Mother, he must have been bored, and muttered stupidly: "The concubine has a clear conscience." ”

The Queen Mother snorted lightly from the tip of her nose, her sharp gaze slowly swept over the hall, and she said unhappily: "What about the queen?" ”

The concubines arrived one after another, but Yuehua, who had always been punctual, had not shown up for a long time today.

Concubine Yajie, Concubine Yu Ling and others naturally took the opportunity to fan the flames, pointing out that Sang scolded Huaidi for counting the falling moons and not taking the Queen Mother in their eyes.

The Queen Mother's face became more and more heavy, as black as the bottom of a pot in the imperial dining room.

Just as he was about to send the minions over to urge, Yuehua hurriedly stepped into the Ruian Palace.

Her outfit is very simple, she should have simply groomed it, she didn't care about rubbing grease and powder, and she didn't even comb her hair. The whole person looks sleepy and has no energy.

Yajieyu covered her lips and smiled: "The queen mother is sleeping late, in a hurry, and she doesn't have a good time to freshen up?" ”

Yuehua saluted the Queen Mother, and her face could not hide her tiredness: "Where?" I didn't sleep all night last night, got up in the morning to serve the emperor to get up early, and then rushed over. ”

Several people exchanged glances in private, and they all snorted softly, meaningfully: "Haven't slept all night? ”

The Queen Mother was even more annoyed: "Ridiculous! Is there still a little bit of shame? ”

"Queen Mother, you misunderstood." Yuehua was a little embarrassed: "Last night, the emperor fell asleep on the couch, and the concubine didn't dare to wake him up, lest he wake up and stay awake all night, so he stayed in front of him all night to drive away mosquitoes for him, so he didn't close his eyes all night." ”

"You said that the emperor hasn't slept well in the past two days?"

Yuehua nodded and sighed lightly: "The queen mother doesn't know, these days there is no life in the court, there are always those people with ill intentions who are not self-sufficient, fanning the flames in it, embarrassing the emperor, and trying to make a profit." The emperor was anxious day and night, and he hadn't closed his eyes well for two nights. The concubine was annoyed that she couldn't share the emperor's worries, and the only thing she could do was to serve the emperor as well as possible. ”

The Queen Mother was silent for a while, and snorted lightly: "In the final analysis, the courtiers below are useless and can't solve problems for the emperor." ”

The Queen Mother's words, Yuehua is not in line with it, nor is it in reverse.

"The emperor said that it was very simple to suppress, and the Taiping army was invincible, so he was naturally fearless. The difficult thing is that to rule the world with virtue, how to convince the courtiers and the central government. Especially in the past two days, the courtiers have been in disputes and contradictions because of issues such as dismissal, promotion, etc., and it is all up to the emperor to make his own decisions. ”

Shen Xinling's father served in the Ministry of Officials, so many things involved him. Eat the king, share the king's worries, Lord Shen's responsibility should naturally bear the brunt.

"The queen is becoming more and more sharp-toothed." Concubine Ling sneered coldly: "This is in control of the Internal Affairs Office, and he is in charge of the house, and he is tough when he speaks." ”

Yuehua felt inexplicable: "What does Concubine Ling mean by this?" ”

Concubine Ling pursed her lips disdainfully: "As we all know, Rong Gui, the head of the Internal Affairs Office, was originally the Empress Dowager's person, but now he has taken refuge in the Empress Dowager?" I heard that I took the Queen Mother's crystal persimmon to please you yesterday. ”

Yuehua covered her lips and smiled: "You didn't say that the palace almost forgot, Yushu, bring persimmons to the Queen Mother." ”

The jade book responded crisply outside the Ruian Palace, and came in with a gold-painted lacquer plate, on which were neatly stacked with many crystal persimmons like small red lanterns.

The Queen Mother glanced at Concubine Ling suspiciously, puzzled by what she meant.

Yuehua smiled slightly and explained: "Yesterday, the Ministry of Internal Affairs said that it would send persimmons to the queen mother. The concubine remembered that you had lake crabs in your meal yesterday. I heard that this crab and persimmon are both cold things, and they hurt their bodies by eating together. The concubine was worried that the minions were careless, so she instructed the Internal Affairs Office to send it later.

Later, when she tasted this persimmon a little jerky, the concubine made her own claim and asked for it all and soaked it in warm water overnight. Today I have seen it thoroughly, so I sent it to the queen mother. After breakfast, you can try it directly. ”

Yuehua explained, but she really slapped Concubine Ling in the face, and Concubine Ling suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and muttered in a low voice: "Isn't it difficult for you to understand these truths alone?" Do you need to be courteous? ”

Yuehua Zhengse said: "Concubine Ling misunderstood. Even if the emperor is exhausted every day, he still does not forget to fulfill his filial piety in front of the queen mother. Hearing the Queen Mother's mention, she wanted to eat this crystal persimmon, so she immediately ordered someone to go to the Taihang Mountains to pick it. The emperor also specially told the palace, saying that the queen mother has a bad spleen and stomach, let me pay attention, don't let the queen mother hurt her spleen and stomach. This palace is just filial piety on behalf of the emperor, how can it become a courtesy? ”

This woman is all about coaxing, and the noble Queen Mother is no exception, Yuehua said it into her heart with a word, and most of her resentment against Mo Guhan was eliminated, full of distress, and naturally this blocked breath was also smoothed a lot.

The Queen Mother glared at Concubine Ling fiercely, and smiled from ear to ear: "The emperor really has a heart." ”

"The emperor also specially explained that if the queen mother likes to eat, she can inform the Internal Affairs Office, and the Internal Affairs Office will naturally send someone to pick it again."

"I'm afraid, I'm afraid, we can't move this internal affairs office." Concubine Ling said sourly.

"Speaking of the Internal Affairs Office, in fact, the concubine really has something to discuss with the queen mother." Yuehua ignored Concubine Ling's ridicule and turned her head to the Queen Mother.

"What's the matter?"

"I heard that there are some old people in this palace, who relied on the favor of the Empress Dowager at the beginning, and did not obey the discipline, which is extremely displeasing to you. Yuehua has a few suitable candidates here, and she has the courage to recommend it to the queen mother. ”

Yuehua doesn't talk much, it's just two simple sentences. In the hearts of everyone, the river and the sea were turned upside down, and they became lively.

There are many people in the palace who are the Empress Dowager, there is no doubt about it.

The Queen Mother wants to do it?

The queen wants to recommend people, this is obvious, she wants to install people in the palace?

This is indeed a good time!

However, begging the Queen Mother, this is seeking skin with the tiger, is it possible for the Queen Mother to agree?

Yuehua looked at the Queen Mother with a smile, waiting for her to make a statement, and the Queen Mother felt a "chuckle" in her heart, and then the alarm bell immediately rang.

First of all, Chu Yuehua's words make sense. The Empress Dowager was placed under house arrest, but she was still deaf and clear-sighted, and she couldn't hide anything from her in the Forbidden City. Therefore, this harem is indeed to be rectified, and the Empress Dowager's people resolutely cannot stay.

She remembered what the Empress Dowager said to her yesterday, looked at Yuehua with guarded eyes, and smacked the taste.

She Chu Yuehua finally couldn't hold it back, and wanted to take power over herself, really think she was a fool? Can't even see her little trick?

The Empress Dowager reminded her very right, she resolutely cannot take Chu Yuehua lightly, the emperor was confused by her, she must control the Forbidden City, and restrained Chu Yuehua's hands and feet. Otherwise, this ambitious woman will turn the Forbidden City upside down sooner or later!

So she immediately vetoed it without thinking: "The queen doesn't have to worry about this matter, the mourning family already has a plan." ”

Yuehua didn't even have time to say the names of the people she recommended, and she was sealed with a sentence.
