Chapter 258: Recruiting Talents

"Don't rush, take your time. ”

entered the palace, in Zhaoyang Palace, the queen mother was still handling government affairs in Ningde Palace, and the emperor followed to study together.

Han Rui took her hand and sat down, tasting the fine tongue of the Zhaoyang Palace.

"When you see the Queen Mother later, you don't have to be nervous, although the Queen Mother is sometimes very strict, she is really good at talking. ”

Peony silently remembered it in his heart.

"The Queen Mother has arrived. ”

The eunuch's sharp voice almost shook Peony from her chair, and she hurriedly got up, standing straight, her body very stiff, as if she was facing a great enemy.

Han Rui Shi Ran got up and patted her shoulder, "Didn't I just tell you that you don't have to be nervous? ”

Before she could answer, a pair of shoes embroidered with a phoenix with bright yellow uppers appeared in front of her, and the owner of the entire harem who could use the phoenix except for the queen mother is the queen, so there is no doubt that the owner of the shoes in front of her is the queen mother.

She suddenly became nervous and stumbled to speak.

"Say hello to the Queen Mother. ”

Fortunately, although I stammered, the rules I learned yesterday afternoon were not messed up.

The Queen Mother sat down with a smile, "Flat." ”

She was half-crouched and fully up.

"The first time I entered the palace, I was probably not used to it, and it was the same when the mourning family entered the palace for the first time, and I would get used to it when I walked around the palace in the future. ”

The great kindness shown by the Queen Mother surprised Han Rui.

Peony looked at Han Rui deeply, and joy appeared in her eyes.

"Yes. ”

"Why didn't the emperor come?"

Seeing that there was no emperor behind him.

The relaxed smile on the Queen Mother's face immediately froze.

"Ning Xiang has always said that he is ill, and the emperor went to visit Ning Mansion. ”

The emperor personally went to visit the courtiers' mansions, which is also a great honor, according to this view, could it be that the queen mother does not plan to move the Ning family?

"The emperor is out of the palace, can he bring more people with him?"

"Don't worry about this, Ding Dai is with people. ”

"That's good. ”

It was said that he had entered the palace to thank him, but he said a few words, and then gave him lunch, and when he left, he received many valuable rewards.

Sitting in the carriage, Peony felt that all this was too unrealistic, she had just eaten with the most noble woman in the world, and she was kind to herself, and any official wife used to look down on her.

"Let's go straight to your house. ”

"Good. ”

"What was your name?"

You can't just call it a peony all the time.

Peony lowered her head, and when she raised her head again, her face was a little sad, "I've been in Tianxianglou since I can remember, and I don't remember my former name." ”

"In the future, let's call you Shouguang. ”

"As the princess said. ”

When the carriage arrived at the county lord's mansion, it happened to go to Qi Yuan and Ling Tinglan to come over.

Several people entered the gate together, Qingshan appeared next to Han Rui, and whispered: "This Miss Cheng has indeed appeared in the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion from time to time in the past two months, she has already changed her residence, and her subordinates inquired about it, and the courtyard she is now is the one that the Huaiyin Marquis asked to buy for her." ”

"Things are getting more and more interesting, keep looking. ”

"Yes. ”

As instructed, a sheep had been slaughtered in the kitchen, the whole sheep was ready to be roasted, the seasonings had been prepared, and a bonfire had been lit in the open space outside the kitchen.

Han Rui inspected the kitchen and ordered a few dishes.

Back in the outer hall of the main courtyard, there were several men standing in the hall, dressed ordinary, even a little sloppy.

One of them, an older man with a scruffy beard, had a few holes in his clothes, but his expression was resolute, not at all ordinary

Several men knelt down to say goodbye, and I wanted the old man to sit upright unruly.

Peony's face was embarrassed, "Uncle Yang, in front of the eldest princess, I have all the rules." ”

The old man looked up at Han Rui, but there was no respect in his eyes, and then he drank his own tea.

"Uncle Yang doesn't take me seriously today. ”

Peony was angry, this was the first time the old beggar had shaken his face in front of him.

Han Rui started a round.

"It doesn't matter. ”

"I have always heard that the eldest princess of the country is arrogant and domineering, and the rumors cannot be believed, but the old man is fortunate to see the eldest princess today, but she is dignified and beautiful, and her heart is kind. ”

"Mr. Yang has won the prize. The palace came to see you today, it is to specially set up a wine to thank you for relieving the siege of the palace, please take a seat. ”

The old man's eyes showed appreciation.

The crowd sat down in order.

"How many people are very skilled, I don't know if they are willing to serve in the army?"

"If I have the opportunity, I would like to. ”

Several young men clasped their hands into fists, who were not eager to make a contribution.

"Okay, now Jiangzhou is the time to employ people, in addition, you can go to Jiangzhou with grain and grass, the palace will write a handwritten letter, a few of them will be brought to the Marquis of Jingguo, and the Hou Ye will arrange it. ”

"Thank you, Your Highness the Eldest Princess. ”

Only then did Han Rui look at the old man.

"This palace thinks of the old gentleman, helping to train the manpower, I don't know if the old gentleman is willing, if there is any request, just ask. ”

"What if you don't want to?"

Han Rui was secretly unhappy in her heart, could it be that people with some skills like to find excitement or what? Why is his temper so stinky?

"If the old gentleman is unwilling, this palace can't force it. ”

Peony really can't stand it.

"Uncle Yang just praised the eldest princess for her dignified beauty and kind-heartedness, why is she unwilling to serve the eldest princess at this time?"

The old man picked up the wine glass in front of him, drank it all in one gulp, smacked his lips and praised: "It's really good wine." ”

He burped, "This matter will be discussed later, hurry up and serve the food to eat, the old man is starving to death." ”

For some reason, Han Rui actually saw Pei Qiniang's shadow on him, "Let's serve the food." ”

The delicious roasted whole lamb was brought up, the cook cut it into pieces, and a plate was placed in front of each person.

The old man directly picked up his share and chewed it in a big gulp, not caring at all that the eldest princess and the county lord were also present.

After eating a meal, he didn't eat very much, he chirped, and consumed food like a whirlwind, as if he hadn't eaten food in eight lifetimes.

Rouge turned his head away, and couldn't bear to look at it again.

Han Rui only drank a bowl of mushroom soup and was full, she would get fat after eating something too greasy, she now pays great attention to her body, about because it has been a year since she came through, and she is no longer as excited about this kind of food as before, after all, the daily food is so rich.

After the meal, the twilight was four, and it was already dark outside, and everyone said goodbye.

Only the old man walked in front of Han Rui, "The eldest princess has a big heart, and the old man should be down." ”

"Great, thank you sir, invite me to the princess's mansion tomorrow to talk in detail. ”

Having one talent is enough to make her happy.

On the way back, I was in a good mood when I bought a sky full of stars, and after I went back, I lay down and fell asleep after bathing.

When he woke up the next day, Rouge ordered breakfast to be served.

A few dumplings, a plate of small steamed buns, chicken porridge, and a few side dishes, Qingshan suddenly appeared.
