In the Huanyi Bureau before, Qi Min'er was squeezed out by the aunt in charge, and later thanks to the care of Lord Shanggong, the palace maid in charge was also sent away, and the newly promoted aunt in charge took care of her.

It's just that Qi Min'er has grown up during this time, she no longer has any illusions, but abandons her former identity and actively integrates into these palace maids, she was always a little unclear before, and thought that it was because they said that they were gentle and amiable that made people humble to themselves, but until now, there was no noble status in the past, and she knew that their flattery and flattery were just for their subordinate status.

So Qi Min'er simply lowered her figure, she knew what they wanted for these palace maids, that was naturally to get rid of the identity of low-level palace maids, and to be able to climb to the position of female officials step by step, after all, most of the family backgrounds of palace maids who entered the palace were ordinary, and they were not even loved by their parents, so they could only save some money by themselves.

Most of the people in the Huanyi Bureau are like this, because the monthly case in the Huanyi Bureau is not high, and it is more difficult, and most of the palace maids who have surplus wealth go to serve by the master's side or go to the palace such as the Imperial Garden and the Library Pavilion, and only those who have no money and no family background will be sent to the Huanyi Bureau to wash clothes.

Therefore, those of them who were sent to the Huanyi Bureau had a stronger desire to change their identities than those palace maids, but to participate in the female official exam, the first thing is to be literate, most of them don't know a single big word, and they haven't received a good education, and Qi Min'er took this opportunity to integrate into them.

She organized a group of little palace maids to teach each other to read and write, and they didn't charge any fees, and those palace maids naturally thought of her benefits, not only that they would help with the usual laundry, but also that they would help with some ordinary work of eating and cleaning.

So Qi Min'er is also a little comfortable in this Huanyi Bureau during this time, and this letter was given to her by Jing'er, a little palace maid who had just entered the palace, Qi Min'er turned out to be Jing'er's heart, first looked around, and when she saw that no one saw it, she asked Jing'er in a low voice What was going on?

I heard Jing'er also lowered her head, slowly lowered her voice, and then opened her mouth to say to her:

"Sister Min'er, this letter was when I was in the Imperial Garden, a palace maid suddenly handed it to me, she walked very fast, and when I reacted, she was already gone, I followed Sister Min'er to learn this time, and I knew a few words, looking at the letter said that it was a Qi word, and I thought that there was only one sister surnamed Qi in the Huanyi Bureau.

I'll show Sister Min'er if it was written to you, if so, I will live up to her trust, if not, I will hand it over to the aunt in charge. ”

Jing'er didn't say much about the extra words, in fact, when the palace maid handed her the letter, she also stuffed two taels of silver into her, and told her that she must send these to Miss Qi's hands, otherwise she would be accused of stealing.

Jing'er's family background is not good, she has never seen so much of these two taels of silver, and now she wants to keep this silver, but she is afraid of the threat of the palace maid, so she is busy sending a letter to Baba'er.

Qi Min'er nodded when she heard this, and thanked her, he knew that there must be untruths and incompleteness in this Jing'er's mouth, but these are not important for the time being, she found an excuse to go back to the house, and then avoided everyone's eyes and ears, before she opened the letter, and there was a familiar font.

It was Wu Shizi of Changningbo Mansion who had written to her before, Qi Min'er was happy at first, thinking that she had some news about the Qi family, but when she saw the specific content of the letter, she sighed deeply, she didn't expect the new emperor's vinegar to be so strong, and she actually wanted to deal with Changningbo Mansion.

Wu Shizi said to Qi Min'er in the letter, because Bofu has always been nothing out of the ordinary to blame, and his father is sincere and sincere as an official, so the new emperor can't find fault for a while, but their family can't stay in Beijing for a long time, in order to avoid its edge, their family decided to go back to their hometown and stay for the time being.

Wu Shizi also said in the letter that he would not be able to write to Qi Min'er in the future, and this envelope contained a thousand taels of silver, which was for her to make a point in the palace.

As for the news of the Marquis of Mingyuan's mansion, Wu Shizi said that he would try his best to inquire, if there is any more definite news, although he can't reach Qi Min'er's hands, he will definitely do his best to take care of it, when she heard this, Qi Min'er was very grateful in her heart, and at the same time she was a little angry.

To be honest, she really has no love for Wu Shizi, and she is about to forget the appearance of the other party, but Wu Shizi misses her so much, and even helps her many times, this friendship, Qi Min'er will never forget.

Especially at this time, there is a way that is the icing on the cake, and it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow, and Wu Shizi is the one who sends charcoal in the snow to her, there were so many people who were good friends with the Marquis of Mingyuan Mansion in the past, she wrote letters one by one, but they didn't reply, or even avoided it.

Only Wu Shizi, who was once categorically rejected by her, still remembers replying to her, and even repeatedly helped. Qi Min'er knew the new emperor's temperament, so she naturally couldn't let the other party deal with the Changning Mansion, firstly, to thank Wu Shizi, and secondly, because the Changning Mansion has always been low-key, which is also to help the Qi family.

What's more, Qi Min'er looked at the red wall tiles in the distance, and secretly made a decision in her heart.

She seemed to be able to bear passively before, and she never thought of fighting back, so she has been bullied by Queen Liu, bullied by her aunt in charge, and anyone who comes can step on her one or two feet.

And the person she once thought could be a couple with her for the rest of her life was a concubine on the left and a concubine on the right into the palace, and she was favored in every way, Qi Min'er only felt that her previous self was ridiculous.

Since he has already changed his mind, what is he doing obsessively guarding the past? What's more, the Qi family is her mother's family, she can't blindly feel sorry for herself, but she has to help her family get rid of the identity of this criminal minister.

She used to be reluctant to let this relationship be stained with impurities, but now it turns out that she is too naïve, Qi Min'er looked at the national bronze mirror to reflect her eyebrows and eyes, compared to the previous high-spirited, now her eyebrows and eyes have a few more modest and gentle, and a few traces of pity flashed in her eyes, looking more protective than before.

"Isn't it going to fight? Then go to fight, she doesn't want to passively accept the other party's means like this, this time she won't dodge again, even if she loses, she must lose with dignity, instead of letting others trample on it like this. ”

After a while, Qi Min'er came out of her room again, Jing'er kept looking at Qi Min'er secretly, she didn't know what was written in the letter, and at the same time she held the two taels of silver hidden in her sleeve, thinking about it for a while, if Qi Min'er came to ask her if she wanted it, would she give it?

It's just that she only saw Qi Min'er smiling and greeting others as usual, and when someone came to ask her about literacy, she also patiently replied, looking at her good temper, the other party didn't mean to ask her again, but Jing'er only felt that Qi Min'er at this time seemed to be very different from the postoperative just now.

But she couldn't describe the difference, she only felt that the other party was forbearant before, but at this moment, the other party had a little more different charm.

At this time, in the Jingwang Mansion......

Concubine Shu instructed Mama to sell a large number of people, so the people serving around her were not as effective as usual for a while, but Concubine Shu felt much quieter than just now.

Mama Liu brought a bowl of lotus seed soup over, and Concubine Shu opened it and took a sip, then asked her:

"Mama, what do you think of that Miss Qi? She is the daughter of the third room of the Qi family, I have never heard of the third room of the Qi family when I was in the palace before, I only know that the big room is to inherit the title of the marquis, the daughter of the second room is taught by the queen's side, and the second master of Qi is also diligent in the court.

Only Qi Sanye doesn't seem to have a good reputation, his wife, and his daughter have not been mentioned before, but I just met the girl in the third room, and she is really a smart mind, and I like it very much. ”

Mama Liu knew that this was Concubine Shu who was interested in Qi Zhenzhen, so she wanted to get to know each other, Mama Liu thought about it for a while, organized the language, and then said:

"Speaking of the three rooms of the Qi family, it is indeed not famous, the mother of the Marquis of Mingyuan Mansion as the queen mother has always been a hot existence, but the slave maid heard that the third master of Qi in the three rooms is a little unwilling, you must know that the Qi family has always had no habit of taking concubines, the uncle of the Qi family and the second master of the Qi family did not accept concubines, only the third master of Qi accepted several concubines, and the wife he married was the daughter of the Duke of Dingguo, Yao, at that time, the first emperor gave her the position of a county lord in order to appease her, but unfortunately I heard that she and the third master of Qi were not harmonious, After many years of marriage, the two only had a little daughter, who was the Qi girl you mentioned.

When Miss Qi was in Beijing, most people said that she was just well-behaved and sensible, but she was not as good as Miss Min'er in the second room, she has always had the reputation of a talented woman, and she is also sought after by many people. ”

Mama Liu said this, but Concubine Shu's interest was a little stronger, it was really strange, could it be that exile had changed people so much? A little girl who used to be unknown was extremely intelligent during this time, and her views on problems were quite sharp.

How can there be such a big change in people, there is probably only one reason, that is, when she was in Beijing in the past, the young lady of the Qi family with three rooms was clumsy, but why did she hide it?

Among them, Concubine Shu was really a little puzzled, and at this moment, she suddenly heard the maid guarding the second gate come to report, saying that a man who claimed to be surnamed Qi came with a little girl, and the little girl was the Qi girl who had just gone out.

She hurriedly asked someone to take him to the main hall, and then ordered her to dress up specially on the left and right, and then took the grandmother and the maid to the main hall.

Master Qi's identity used to be different, and he came to the door this time, I am afraid that there are important words to say in person, so it is naturally necessary to treat it solemnly, Concubine Shu thought secretly in her heart, and at the same time told Mama not to slack off.
