Chapter 154: Lack of Concentration
Although there is no need to go to the court, it has reached the end of the year, and many cumbersome affairs between the DPRK and China still need to be decided.
Distressed and soothing eyebrows. Before she slept well at night, after she fell asleep, he quietly got up and went to the small study next door to the dormitory to deal with government affairs.
When Shu Mei woke up from sleep on the dragon couch and disappeared from the pillow, she opened the thick dragon tent and saw a palace maid in auspicious clothes standing beside the smoke cage in the distance, so she asked, "What about the emperor?" ”
"Back to Niangniang, the emperor is handling government affairs next door. The slave and maid went to report to the emperor. ”
"Don't interrupt the emperor's administration." Shu Mei hurriedly stopped. Before she left the Prime Minister's Mansion, Grandpa and Grandma repeatedly told her not to interfere with the government for personal reasons at any time. The affairs of the harem are family affairs, and the affairs of the previous dynasty are state affairs, and it is a serious crime for the concubine to interfere with state affairs with family affairs.
"The emperor has been waiting for the mother to dine together." The palace maid bowed her head.
"Meals? What time is it? Shu Mei glanced at the bright window lattice and asked hurriedly.
"Back to Niangniang, it's a moment now."
"Ah, why didn't you wake me up?!" Shu Mei panicked, she thought it was morning, but she didn't expect it to be afternoon.
"Niangniang, the emperor won't let me call it." The palace maid covered her lips and chuckled.
It's been this hour, and Brother Ling Li hasn't eaten yet, how can this be done? Shu Mei sat up abruptly and hurriedly dressed up.
When the palace maid saw her get up, she immediately said outside: "Niangniang is up, please enter the hall with clothes and decorations." ”
Soon, two palace maids walked in with clothes plates and decoration baskets.
"Niang Niang Jin'an." After the two palace maids entered the hall to salute, they took the initiative to come forward to help her change her clothes.
"May I ask my mother what hairstyle she wants to comb today?" After the robe was put on, the palace maid asked.
"Just make it the simplest." Shu Mei only thought that Ling Li hadn't eaten yet, if she wasn't worried about Jun Qian's loss of manners, she would have been able to go to see him like this.
The two palace maids looked at each other and smiled, and then said, "The slave maid understands." ”
Although Si Jie combed the simplest bun for her, plus washing her face, cleaning her mouth, and applying makeup, it also took a lot of effort. After washing and combing, she hurriedly asked the palace maid to lead her to the small study to see Ling Li.
"Why didn't Brother Ling Li wake me up, it's already been ......this hour" Before Shu Mei's words were finished, the person was stunned.
In the study, in addition to Ling Li, there was also Shen Zhu wearing a red official robe.
Shu Mei blushed suddenly, and stood at the door at a loss, "Brother Shen is also there?" ”
Shen turned his head and saw the woman's outfit of Shu Mei. On her loose and leyou bun, she has a hairpin that symbolizes tying the knot, and a pink mandarin duck cloud brocade jacket makes her skin like clotted fat and her face like a peach blossom. I have never seen such a bright ** person's eyebrows, and I was stunned for a while before I hurriedly got up and saluted, "The minister has seen Concubine Mu, Niangniang Jin'an." ”
"Ruyi, I said that Niangniang woke up and came to report, why didn't she come?" Ling Li glanced at Ruyi, the palace maid who followed Shu Mei, and her face turned cold.
"Yes, it was the concubine who was afraid of disturbing His Majesty's governance, so she didn't let her come." Seeing that Ling Li seemed to be displeased, Shu Mei was afraid that he would be angry, so he hurriedly explained.
"Wei Zhi will watch for me first, and I will come when I go." Ling Li put down the slash in his hand, got up and walked towards Shu Mei, took her hand, and led her to the dormitory.
Ling Li walked in a hurry, and held her hand very tightly, which made Shu Mei's heart suddenly feel worried, "Brother Ling Li, shouldn't I go to the small study?" I didn't know you were meeting the minister......"
Hearing her cautious question, Ling Li stopped, he picked up her confused face, gently stroked her slightly frowning brow with his fingers, shook his head and said, "I shouldn't have summoned the foreign minister today." ”
Ah Mei, who was dressed so beautifully, actually let the foreign minister see it, which made him unhappy. And when she called Shen Zhi "Brother of the Shen Family", he was jealous: How could she call other people's brothers again?
"You remember, you are now the concubine of the Nanyue Dynasty, and you can no longer call the courtier your brother."
"Well, Ah Mei remembered." Shu Mei nodded in response.
"Good." He took her into his arms.
"Brother Ling Li, you must be hungry, right?" She looked up from his arms and asked in a whisper.
The woman in his arms, looking at him, looked at him with a look that was obviously pure and desireless, but he always had to be insufficient. If it weren't for the daylight, if it wasn't for the minister's presence, if it weren't for the worry that her body wouldn't be able to bear it, he couldn't wait for this moment......
Ling Li took a deep breath and shook his head.
I have to send her to Jiqing Palace. Staying by her side, I was afraid that I was not determined enough, and I really wanted to become a faint monarch who preached prostitution and wasted the government during the day.
After Ling Li accompanied Shu Mei for lunch, he asked Man Fu to summon a sedan chair to send her to Jiqing Palace.
The sedan chair stopped outside the Jiqing Palace, and as soon as Shu Mei walked out of the sedan chair, he saw a person dressed as an inner servant kneeling straight at the palace gate.
"Slave Wei Shen begs Niangniang for help!"
Shu Mei looked around and asked with a stunned expression, "Who wants your life?" ”
"Yesterday, the slave was dizzy and led the wrong way, the emperor will definitely cut off the slave's head and beg Niangniang to help!" Wei Shen kowtowed on the ground.
The attendants and palace maids in Jiqing Palace heard that Concubine Mu had arrived, and they all came out to greet Shu Mei at this moment. Huo Cheng, the eunuch in charge, saw Wei Shen pestering Concubine Mu, so he stepped forward and scolded: "You made a mistake, you should go to the Inner Servant Province to receive the punishment, and you came here to disturb Concubine Mu's purity, do you want to beg for a beating?" ”
"If you lead the wrong way, you have to cut off your head, what the hell is going on?" Shu Mei was a little confused.
"Niangniang, he is the foreman who was responsible for holding the seven phoenix yellow satin crank umbrellas in the honor guard yesterday, knowing that he made a big mistake, he came here to kneel last night." The chief palace maid, Qiu Hibiscus, explained.
"Kneeling here all night?" Knowing what Wei Shen was asking for, although Shu Mei was in his heart, he still agreed to intercede for him, "You get up, if the emperor wants to pursue this matter, I will ask for a favor for you." ”
didn't expect Concubine Mu to be so generous, Wei Shen was immediately moved inexplicably, "Thank you Niangniang for saving your life, the slave's life will be Niangniang's in the future." ”
"What do I want your life to do, you go back." Shu Mei said and walked towards Jiqing Palace.
"Niangniang, I have been sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs to serve Niangniang, and now I am Niangniang's person." Wei Shen took out the dispatch letter of the Inner Servant Province from his bosom and handed it to Shu Mei with both hands.
Shu Mei didn't answer, only turned his head to Huo Cheng and said: "Since this is the case, then ask Huo Diantou to arrange it for him." ”
"The minions obey." Huo Cheng took the dispatch letter and said to Wei Shen: "You come with me." ”
"Niangniang, the slave still has important things to report separately." Wei Shen said urgently.
"What?" Shu Mei asked.
Wei Shen looked around, and was puzzled: "This matter needs to be reported separately." ”
"You dog, you deliberately led the wrong road to harm your mother yesterday, what else do you want to do today?!" Huo Cheng shouted.
"Huo Diantou, the slave really has something to report to the mother alone......"
Shu Mei looked Wei Shen up and down, and said to the chamberlain and the palace maid, "You guys go get busy first." ”
Huo Cheng and Qiu Jin had to retreat with everyone. Seeing that everyone dispersed, Wei Shen lowered his voice and said: "Niangniang, yesterday it wasn't the slave who wanted to trap Niangniang, the slave was forced to ......."
Shu Mei's eyes widened, "Who forced you?" ”
"Concubine Xian."
Shu Mei couldn't help but be stunned.
"The slave just wants to remind Niangniang that you must be careful of the people in Yanqing Palace." Wei Shen said flatteringly.
"I see. Don't mention it again. Shu Mei tightened the cloak on his shoulders with his hand and strode towards the palace.
