Dong Ji felt these words in his heart, and suddenly said: "The benefactor is clever! The concubine understood. ”

She turned her head to greet Xiao Huan, whispered something in her ear, Xiao Huan nodded again and again, and ran to run to do something.

Dong Ji thanked the black-robed man, "The benefactor sees human nature thoroughly, but the concubine doesn't know why you help the concubine like this?" ”

The black-robed man said: "I have my own plans, you need to remember that once you get the hands on the new emperor, you must pay attention to whether there is anything wrong with him for me." ”

Dong Ji agreed, although he didn't know the identity and purpose of his benefactor, the enemy in front of him was Yang Leyu, and he had no intention of caring about anything else.

.

On the other side, in the Qinzheng Palace, Yang Leyu dressed up as a palace maid as usual and was quietly led in by Feng Bao.

Mu Chengzhou pretended to ignore her and continued to write corrections.

Feng Bao covered his lips and said, "Concubine Niangniang, you have to go to Your Majesty's side to grind ink and serve." ”

Yang Leyu glanced at the inkstone, "Isn't there still ink?" ”

Feng Bao was speechless for a moment, and then said: "There is always a time when it is useless, this is the duty of the palace maid." ”

Whose responsibilities? Yang Leyu sighed lightly, moved to Mu Chengzhou's case, picked up the ink and grinded.

The ink strips were polished back and forth in the inkstone, making a brisk slight sound.

Mu Chengzhou glanced at her with his residual light, his bad thoughts rose, and he snorted softly: "Don't make a sound." ”

"Yes." Yang Leyu secretly scolded him for not being humane, how can Mo Mo be silent?

She lowered the speed of grinding the ink and tried not to make a sound as much as possible, but in this way, the ink was much less, and the speed of Mu Chengzhou's review was accelerated, and the supply soon exceeded demand.

He reproached: "Out of ink, how do you do things?" ”

Yang Leyu secretly rolled her eyes, and her face was as respectful as ever: "Back to Your Majesty, you asked me not to make a sound." ”

Mu Chengzhou raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "Are you complaining?" ”

Yang Leyu: "Don't dare." ”

Of course she didn't dare, this rebel held her life in his hands, and he also held her silver taels.

Mu Chengzhou wanted to laugh when he saw her low attitude, "Since you don't dare, why don't you grind faster?" ”

Yang Leyu should have deliberately made his hand heavier, so that the grinding strip collided with the inkstone, making a lot of movement, and he couldn't concentrate on correcting.

Mu Chengzhou: "Little Lamb, is this not afraid of me, blatantly protesting?" ”

"How dare you?" Yang Leyu tugged at the corners of her lips, "I'm just following His Majesty's instructions." ”

After she finished speaking, she said to herself like a mosquito: "Anyway, you won't pay me." ”

Mu Chengzhou didn't know her careful thoughts, "It's not easy for you to get paid?" I am not a tyrannical king, and if you are well-behaved and obedient, you will naturally get some benefits from me. ”

Yang Leyu's eyes lit up: "Your Majesty quotes a price?" ”

Mu Chengzhou smiled: "For example, this ink grinding kung fu, if you grind carefully, I can review it comfortably, and remember two taels." If you do the work intimately, increase it as appropriate. ”

Yang Leyu came to the head of the spirit and immediately asked, "Then Your Majesty feels thirsty?" I'm going to make tea! ”

Mu Chengzhou bowed slightly, she immediately brought a pot of tea like Xiao Yanfei, poured it into the tea cup of the golden eagle dragon, and blew it carefully, for fear of burning the gold master.

It was rare for Mu Chengzhou to see her so obedient, so he took a sip happily: "It's more than warm, two taels." ”

Yang Leyu was overjoyed, she knew that she was making money by the emperor's side, what kind of harem concubine should she be, it was better to earn some pension money, and when she was rich enough, she simply asked Wu Buyue to resign and enjoy life with her.

Yang Leyu was full of energy, and immediately stood up after taking the empty teacup, pinched the ink strip in his hand tightly, and made a gentle circle in the inkstone, not only to have more ink, but also to refrain from making a sound.

Mu Chengzhou secretly laughed at her for being a fan of small wealth, but she was also happy. In the past, this little concubine mother was always afraid of him, but now she is finally a little closer.

Yang Leyu grinded the ink and caught a glimpse of the recital he was reviewing, which was played by Qian Heng, which basically said that the total amount of treasury and silver reported by the household department at the end of the year was much more indebted than in previous years, and it was already in deficit.

Mu Chengzhou stayed on this letter for a long time, and the tip of the pen fell and raised, hesitating.

Yang Leyu saw his embarrassment and said, "Your Majesty has encountered a problem?" ”

Mu Chengzhou sighed lightly: "It's not just that you have to worry about the silver, but I am the same with the people of the world." ”

It was rare for Yang Leyu to see him think about the lives of the people so carefully, so he said a few more words: "If Your Majesty doesn't dislike me for being stupid, you can tell me about it." ”

After all, she is a high-achieving student who received the admission letter of 211 University, and although she does not know much about the ancient system, she knows a little about it.

Mu Chengzhou said: "When the old guy was still panting, Qian Heng appointed the head of the household department, it has been decades, he has rich experience, and it stands to reason that he will not condone the deficit in the treasury, but this year it has fallen inexplicably, the tax has not risen a penny, and there are no natural and man-made disasters, so I don't know where the situation is." ”

Yang Leyu also wondered when he heard this, "Your Majesty can't just listen to the words of one person, why don't you send spies to visit the people secretly to find out if it's true?" ”

Mu Chengzhou squinted, and there was a hint of appreciation in his eyes, "I didn't expect Xiao Yang to have a lot of insights into political affairs." ”

Yang Leyu remembered that in costume dramas, she often acted in the harem and was beaten into the cold palace, she couldn't help but tremble in her heart, and hurriedly waved her hand: "Definitely!" I don't have the heart to interfere in politics! ”

Mu Chengzhou chuckled: "What are you panicking about? I never said you were in politics. ”

Yang Leyu still held her breath.

Mu Chengzhou took her hand, broke her clenched fist, and drew a "ten" character in it.

Yang Leyu was surprised: "What does this mean? ”

Mu Chengzhou: "I have adopted your idea, and I will give you a commission." ”

An idea actually won ten taels of silver! Yang Leyu smiled and thanked him.

"I'll ask Feng Bao to send it to you later." Mu Chengzhou put down his pen, "Today's New Year's Day, I won't leave you to work here, you can go back to the palace and reunite with them quickly." ”

Yang Leyu was surprised, when did this rebel become so suitable? Just leaving him here alone made her feel a little guilty for a while. But he let himself go, what are he still doing? If he regrets it, he will be happy in vain.

Yang Leyu retreated, returned to Leyi Palace, and cheered: "Gantang! I've made some money today, so I'll take it to the kitchenette and let the cooks cook more delicious food! ”

No one in the courtyard answered her, and the lamb was gone.

Yang Leyu wondered, she had not been out for a few hours, why had she changed so much?

She called two more times, only to see Gan Tang walking out of the hall with his face drooping, kneeling in front of her with a "clang".

Whimpered and kowtowed: "Concubine, the slave didn't mean it!" ”

Yang Leyu hurriedly picked her up, "What's wrong?" What's going on? ”

Gan Tang teary-eyed: "The slave maid was originally cleaning in the yard, but somehow she was sleepy, accidentally fell asleep, and woke up to find that the lambs were gone. ”

Yang Leyu: "Our yard is surrounded by a fence, and the lambs won't run!" ”

Gan Tang wiped his tears and said: "The slave maid checked it just now, and the fence in the corner of the west gate broke a hole, and the lamb must have gotten out of it." ”

Yang Leyu went to see with her, and sure enough, there was a big hole in the fence.
