Chapter 29: Three levels in a row

The news in the palace has always spread quickly, and the queen moved half of the silver to the soldiers in the barracks, and they already knew about it yesterday.

It is precisely because the queen is so reckless and reckless that she can still get the firm support of His Majesty, and even grounded Concubine Shu for this, that they rushed to Fengqi Palace, hoping to have a relationship with the Middle Palace.

As for whether they could help Queen Zhang Luo with the spring banquet, they didn't think about it at all.

The queen did things for the first time, so she naturally had to make the banquet beautiful by herself.

If everything is handed over to others, then when His Majesty asks, how can she show her talents to His Majesty?

But just now, she generously handed over the matter of tea to Qing Concubine.

Qing Concubine was immediately overjoyed: "The concubine grew up in Jiangnan since she was a child, and her mother is a master of tea cooking in Jiangnan. If the mother needs it, the concubine must prepare tea for the mother to choose! ”

"Okay." Chi Xinian nodded slightly, ordered a few people with Qing Concubine to help her, and then turned her eyes to look at Lin Jieyu, "Qing Concubine is in charge of tea, Lin Jieyu and Zhou Guiren are in charge of refreshments."

"You discuss it together, make refreshments with tea, and make sure that the people who come to participate have a charm and eat comfortably."

"Yes." After receiving the order, Lin Jieyu also smiled a little more.

Just now, Zhou Gui was open-mouthed and accused the queen of being rude, and she didn't have any hope. But in a blink of an eye, the queen handed over the preparation of refreshments to her... In this way, she finally has an explanation after she goes back...

Lin Jieyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time reached out and quietly tugged on Zhou Guiren's sleeve, signaling her to pay more attention to the future, and stop relying on the queen's atmosphere.

This time, Zhou Guiren finally listened to the reminder.

Although he never thanked the queen seriously, he did not argue with the queen anymore.

Zhou Guiren was quiet, and the purpose of the rest of the palace concubines was achieved, and then, a few polite words and gossip were gone.

However, while chatting, Chen Meiren provoked another topic: "By the way, have you heard that Concubine Shu's brother has been demoted?" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, the scene was silent for a moment.

On the one hand, it is inconvenient for the harem to discuss politics, and on the other hand, it is really delicate to discuss this matter as the identity and position of the people present.

But the topic of Chen Meiren has already opened, and it is impossible for everyone to pretend not to hear it directly, so they have no choice but to speak out from the concubine who is good friends with her: "I have also heard about this matter, it seems... Is it because he is incompetent?

"This is also normal, Your Majesty is a person who pays attention to ability, if he can't bear his responsibility, it is reasonable to be demoted to one level."

It stands to reason that when the Qing concubine talks about this, the topic will be over.

However, among the people present, Chen Meiren is not the only one who can't speak.

As soon as Concubine Qing's voice fell, Zhou Guiren sneered: "Your news is really unreliable, where was that Lord Xue demoted by one level, it was clearly demoted by three levels in a row!" ”

And with her news, Chi Xinian also became interested in this matter: "Three levels in a row? What kind of mistake did he make? How could he have been punished so heavily? ”

The law of Dajing is still tolerant, and the emperor and the family also have a delicate balance, if they do not catch major mistakes, they will generally be punished and confined.

It's not common to downgrade one level, these three levels...
