"Huh? Why do you serve flower tea to the lady lady? Who would dare to be so sloppy? Slightly unpleasantly asked.

"The county lord forgives the sin, it is the slave and maid who are derelict in their duties!" A palace maid immediately knelt down to plead guilty and kowtowed repeatedly.

Wei Nong reprimanded her a few words on his face, and said that he would punish her for March before he drank her back. After such a toss and a delay for a while, someone re-applied the Junshan silver needle to Ming Danshu.

At this time, Ming Danshu had already been choked with anger, but she couldn't lose her temper in Weiyang Palace, otherwise she would definitely be seen by Nie Xingji's eyeliner. She had no choice but to pretend not to care, and said a few good words to the palace maid against her will, and said, "The county lord doesn't have to be too harsh, you treat the palace people like this, but it will frighten them." ”

Wei Nong picked up the teacup in his hand, looked at the leaves in the cup with lowered eyes, and smiled back: "I have always rewarded and punished clearly, if she takes the initiative to admit dereliction of duty, I will naturally not care; But she waited until I questioned her to speak, which showed that her mind was not with me at all. Of course I have to punish such palace maids who are not long-hearted, otherwise wouldn't it be unfair to those palace maids who keep to themselves and do their duty? ”

The implication is that as long as the female officials keep to themselves, she will never treat everyone badly; Even if you do something wrong, as long as you have the courage to admit it, you will be given a light punishment. When Ming Danshu heard this, she didn't know how to refute it, so she could only laugh again: "It's still the county lord who is smart." ”

"Passing the prize." Wei Nong put down the teacup, removed the smile on his face, and said, "After talking about gossip for so long, I think you are all tired of standing, and we should talk about business." ”

Fang Cai kept smiling, and everyone didn't feel that the situation was tense, and when she was solemn at the moment, many people had a premonition that the situation was not good.

Sure enough, Wei Nong looked at the crowd and said first: "So many people are gossiping, I guess I can't understand it." The director of the sixth bureau stays, and all the divisions go back first! ”

So it's gone? Some of the female officials were happy and some were worried, some were relieved, and some regretted that they did not have the opportunity to show their faces. Only the twelve directors of the sixth bureau were worried, and all the people behind them were gone, and they didn't have any subordinates to help them.

It happened that he was resolute, and after saying this, he narrowed his eyes and looked up at the east side, as if there was something good about the faintly visible Danfeng attic that was worth seeing. The two directors of Shangyi Bureau quietly followed her line of sight, and they didn't even see a few white clouds except for the flawless blue sky.

Wei Nong was very patient, and only when the people of the Twenty-Four Divisions were finished did she get up from her chair and sighed: "His Royal Highness the Prince Regent has set off for the peace talks of Jiang State ten days ago for the sake of the people's livelihood. To tell you the truth, this palace has been very frightened in its heart since it was ordered, and it does not dare to slack off in the slightest......"

At this point, she naturally took a sip of the teacup, and then said: "Concubine Shuniang has been in charge of the phoenix seal for many years, and she manages the harem in an orderly manner, which makes me very admired. But I've always been serious, and maybe I'll be more strict than the lady. ”

With a "click", she put down the teacup again, raised her eyes lazily, and swept over everyone: "There are no outsiders now, if you have anything you want to explain in advance, you can bring it up first today." If I can't decide, I will consult with the lady; If she didn't have an idea, she would have had time to send a message to His Highness for instructions. ”

When she said this, where did anyone dare to speak, but there was a smile of unknown meaning on Ming Danshu's lips, like mockery and disdain.

Wei Nong waited for a long time, and when he saw that everyone didn't reply, he cleared his throat and sighed again: "If you don't mention it today, then I will act impartially." If there is any offense in the future, don't blame me for not saying ugly things in advance. ”

Her words were quite like a queen, and a few old people in the sixth bureau didn't dare to say much when they thought about her past style. There are also several female officers who have just taken office young, although they don't know the glorious history of the past, they have also heard that she once came up with the method of "resisting Ning and aiding Jiang", and she has a little prestige in the Yan army.

Walking in the palace, in addition to the support of the powerful and powerful, if you can speak in the army, everyone will naturally be in awe. There is no doubt that the time and place are favorable, so everyone is also quite eye-catching, and immediately flattered her, and for a while, the compliments came one after another, and Ming Danshu sneered in her heart.

Wei Nong pretended to be very useful for these compliments, and finally smiled again, and nodded again and again: "Since you are all willing to support this palace, then we will have a discussion in the future, if I don't understand something, I ask you to give me more advice." ”

After saying that, she glanced at the people around her, and several palace maids who had just served tea went and returned, standing in a row beside her. Everyone still held a huge tray in their hands, but it was no longer a teacup on it, Wei Nong ordered them to uncover the brocade on the tray, and then smiled at the twelve directors of the six bureaus in front of them: "Be careful, just treat it as a meeting gift, and each person will pick one." ”

When the brocade was unveiled, everyone was dazzled by the pearls, and then stretched out their heads slightly, and saw that there were all kinds of treasures on those trays, each of which was inlaid with gold and silver, jade, pearls, agate, coral, etc., and even the most common one was a ruyi of gold-coated mutton fat jade, the size and thickness of which was comparable to a baby's arm.

Where did a few directors dare to ask for something slightly thick, but they were silent, but Ming Danshu smiled lightly on the side: "Since it is a reward from the county lord, what are you still doing in a daze?" ”

As soon as these words came out, someone dared to step forward boldly, just picked up the Ruyi handle of the gold and jade, and did not forget to thank Wei Nong. Later, a few more people came out to select, but only the six directors of the Shanggong Bureau, the Shangyi Bureau, and the Shangyu Bureau stood still and did not move.

Very good, the position of the six bureaus is clear. The Shangfu Bureau, the Shangshi Bureau, and the Shanggong Bureau all acted according to Ming Danshu's eyes, and the Shanggong Bureau, the Shangyi Bureau, and the Shangyu Bureau had already shown her goodwill in disguise. She and Ming Danshu each have three games available, which can be regarded as a draw. Wei Nong is quite satisfied with the results so far.

Ming Danshu seemed to be very satisfied, and couldn't help but smile and said, "County Lord, look, if I don't say anything, no one will dare to ask for your reward." ”

This is a demonstration in disguise, and Wei Nong simply pierced her: "It seems that Concubine Shuniang has been quite prestigious over the years, and these people are only looking at you?" ”

"How can I feel embarrassed by the county lord's words." Ming Danshu lowered her head and smiled again.

Wei Nong pulled up his hair from his ear and paced a few steps in the courtyard before he smiled back: "I don't know if you have heard of a major incident that happened last year, King Ning's personal palace people colluded with foreign ministers to leak secrets, King Ning was furious about this, executed more than 100 palace people, and almost replaced all the palace directors. ”

Speaking of this, she deliberately paused, slowly paced to Ming Danshu's side, and then looked at everyone and continued: "His Royal Highness the Prince Regent is the most taboo in the palace to form a party for personal gain, and I believe that you will not be so stupid and dull to cut off the back road." Right? ”

If the method of Weinong Fangcai is compared to "dismounting", then her words are undoubtedly more powerful and have the potential of thunder. When everyone heard this, they only felt a chill rise in the back of their heads, as if they had seen the scene of King Ning Qing changing the palace people, especially the people in the three rounds of Ming Danshu were the most frightened, and their expressions couldn't be hidden.

Wei Nong was more satisfied with the effect in front of him, and his smile couldn't help but be a little thicker: "However, as long as you serve Your Highness wholeheartedly, you naturally don't have to worry about this matter." ”

Everyone seemed to be stunned, and they didn't react when they heard the words, and finally Xiaoxin took the lead in expressing their position: "Your Highness is wise and martial, and the county lord has clear rewards and punishments, which is the blessing of the harem." ”

This was said too explicitly, as if she and Nie Xingji had become husband and wife, and after thinking about it, this kind of rumor should be able to better help her take charge of the phoenix seal, so she had to pretend not to hear it. She raised her hand and pointed to the list of treasures, and said to Xiaoxin with a smile: "Our master and servant, you know my temperament best, if you don't pick another thing, the other masters will not dare to take it." ”

Xiaoxin smiled when she heard this, then she curtsied and saluted, and stepped forward to pick a pair of emerald beads and gold chun. At this point, the other five people had less worries, and they each stepped forward to pick an object and thanked Wei Nong.

As a result, at least half of the six trays of treasures remained unpicked, and they were the most valuable items. Wei Nong picked up something at random and played with it, as if jokingly: "It's right for you to come empty-handed today, otherwise you won't be able to take these things." However, the reward is not always available, and you should remember to bring the account book next time. ”

The Shangyi Bureau and the Shangyi Bureau immediately said yes, and the other bureaus had to open their mouths to echo.

"That's good, from tomorrow onwards, I will personally check the account books of each palace and bureau, and if the account books are correct, I will have the remaining treasures here for you to choose; But if the ledger can't be stopped, then I have no choice but to 'can't live' you. Wei Nong sat back in his chair and smiled.

She acted in a play all morning, and finally got to the point. With the means of envy and power in front of her, no one dared to say a word "no" to her in the six rounds, even if Ming Danshu was in front of them, they were afraid.

When the atmosphere was a little depressed, I don't know which principal asked in a slumbered manner: "Does the county lord only look at last year's account books?" ”

"No," he muttered for a moment, and said mercilessly, "I have to look at the account books of the past five years. ”

Nearly five years? Nie Xingji has been in power for exactly five years, and Ming Danshu has also been in charge of the harem for five years. The implication...... It's time to thoroughly find out Danshu's small actions over the years!

This is not only the sixth game, but even Ming Danshu herself was taken aback, and she was surprised and weak-hearted. Although she has been in charge of Fengyin for five years, although she is fair, she often fills her pockets, and she was cautious at first, but later saw that Nie Xingji rarely asked about the harem, and Wei Lianpian was a stuffy gourd, so her courage became bigger and bigger, and she swallowed more and more......

By the beginning of this year, the small treasury in her hand was enough to last three lifetimes. And the use of these money, in addition to buying herself and buying people's hearts, half of it was used to bribe the ministers of the DPRK and the central government, so that they could ask Nie Xingchen to accept Concubine and correct her name.
