Chapter 175: Phoenix Seal
Ruan Yuyi's heart sank, and she realized what was inside. She opened the box and unwrapped the brocade cloth, which vaguely revealed a corner of blood-red phoenix, she didn't look closely, and hurriedly took it back.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?"
She is just a little Jieyu, she has no background or thunder means, and she is still a guilty person - although she has always believed that Daddy was wrongfully imprisoned. Therefore, I never thought that this phoenix seal would fall into anyone's hands, but it was enough to protect myself.
Her white, slender fingertips clasped the box, and she felt that her hands were heavy.
Jiang Huaiyang stroked the back of her neck, and the rough and thin calluses crossed her skin. He said, "Ling Ling should know." ”
His phoenix seal is given at will, like these powers, in front of him are just children's games, insignificant.
"But the concubine won't." She still thought about refusing. She thought that whether it was Concubine Xu, who had a calm temperament, or Li Meiren, who acted aggressively, they were more suitable than her.
"I taught you myself."
She thought for a while, and then said, "The concubine is just Jieyu, Your Majesty should be for Concubine Xu." ”
His hand slid down to her waist, and as soon as he closed it, the man fell into his arms, "Not in a few days." "Concubine Shu is grounded, and there can't be no one in the palace to control the phoenix seal for a day. He could have been handed over to the Empress Dowager to be in charge, but with the Empress Dowager's thoughts, he was afraid that if he gave it, it would be difficult to take it back.
The palace is scattered, and the expenses are far less than those of the previous dynasty, so it is not difficult to manage.
His crisp breath filled her snort, and her body went limp.
Ruan Yuyi climbed on his shoulder, enduring the heat in her ears, and trying to figure out what he had just said.
Suddenly, the sobbing face of the wood spirit flashed in front of her eyes.
She slumped down slightly, leaned into his arms, avoided his troubled hands, and said softly, "The concubine understands that the concubine will live up to the holy will." His hand caught up again, and as she spoke, her mouth changing tone.
She pursed her lips, her eyes misty.
His hand didn't go any further. She took the opportunity to take a sip from the teacup, and the tea slid into her throat to relieve the burning sensation.
Jiang Huaiyang passed the order, and after a while, the directors of various parts of the harem knelt on the ground.
They thought they were the only ones who had been summoned, and they were still in a state of panic, not knowing what had happened. The people next to me are also there, but I am relieved.
Despite this, they are all solemn and solemn, holding their breath.
She struggled to sit alone, but unfortunately she couldn't match him. Her ears fell into his voice, "It's not that I teach you, Ling Ling is far away, how can I teach you?" ”
She tilted her head, unwilling to look at the palace people below, and her breathing was slightly heavy.
Jiang Huaiyang pinched her chin and forced her to look, "What are you doing with your face?" If you don't look at them, how can you recognize people and ask questions? ”
She breathed a sigh of relief, her fingertips turned white, "How does Your Majesty teach your concubine?" ”
"If I say something, you say it." He spoke almost in an airy voice.
She bowed slightly, and she was in response.
He suppressed his voice and sent it into her ears, "In the future, the affairs of the six palaces will be in charge of the master's son." The directors of each place now report their names and their accusations, starting with the right hand first. ”
The voice was soft, but it was clear for her to hear. She recounted it in a loud voice. It's just that her voice is delicate, and she sounds like a pearl falling on a jade plate, and she doesn't feel angry and arrogant.
The principals at the bottom do this, which one is not a human spirit. When I entered the door, I caught a glimpse of the situation at the top of the house, and I didn't dare to raise my eyes. secretly said in his heart, His Majesty really protected this, and such a move could be regarded as a prestige for her.
No one dared to slack off on the principals, and they were reported one by one.
Ruan Yuyi took this opportunity to recognize people, her memory has always been good, only once, and she remembers eight or nine without leaving ten.
Because she has a good memory, she also picked some "poems" and "books" to read in the past. When Mr. took the exam for her, many of the children who memorized her classmates were still fluent.
However, when he got married later, he followed the old saying that "a woman is virtuous if she is not talented", and never said it outside.
Seeing that she frowned slightly and looked serious, he said, "Don't be in a hurry to write it down once, there will be a time in the future." If you can't remember it, it's okay, they know you. ”
She blinked twice and tilted her head slightly, "The concubine has recognized it all." ”
He didn't believe it, and casually clicked on the right side of the back row, "Who is that?" As far as he knew, when Concubine Shu was in power, she didn't remember everyone, and she probably only committed crimes, and she was more familiar with her sleek and ingenious behavior.
"Mama, the director of the Huanyi Bureau, surnamed Lou."
There was a slight surprise in his eyes, and he ordered another one.
"The head of the imperial dining room, surnamed Jin," she hesitated, and then said, "But the concubine always feels that something is not right, and this father-in-law does not look like the head manager. When everyone came in, he was the only one with a fluttering expression and a panicked look.
What's more, if it's the manager, he looks a little younger.
When the eunuch heard this, he was horrified, and he couldn't help but kowtow, "Your Majesty forgives you." It was really Lord Jin who was drunk and couldn't catch up, so he sent a minion. Your Majesty just asked the name of the master, and the minion is this-"
"The sky is blue and the sun is white, and he leaves his post without permission. Ling Ling said, how to punish it? ”
He played with her fingers. The nails were newly dyed red, but not too bright, but like the natural color of blood.
She hesitated for a moment, and said tentatively, "Punish half a month?" ”
"Less."
She said to the eunuch, "Chief Jin left his post without permission and fined one month's money as punishment." When the words fell, she heard her heart beat like a drum, and her ears were a little hotter.
The eunuch's voice of promise quickly drowned out her heartbeat. She felt a little relieved.
After sending off the new emperor and the palace people, she looked at the boxes placed on several cases, still in a trance, she didn't think about entering the palace, but became one of the concubines, she didn't think about being in charge of the six palaces, but she was forced to take over this errand.
Everything was out of her original vision. She was dragged into a strange situation.
"Little master, don't worry. In this palace, power depends, and that's a good thing. Mu Xiang added some tea for her.
The celadon tea cup hit a faint sound of water, the tea leaves floated and sank, and the newly added tea merged into the undrunk.
She was a little distracted, and the itch in her throat interrupted her thoughts. She covered it with a handkerchief, and after relieving her breath, she said softly, "Let's go and see." ”
Because everything was just taken over, she was very unfamiliar, and the things in the harem were complicated, and it took her several days to feel more and more familiar.
After the new emperor introduced her to recognize someone last time, those palace people didn't know whether they were restrained, or they were obedient, but they didn't cause any trouble, but a few people reported others to please her.
Ruan Yuyi turned the bracelet on her wrist, and the white jade bracelet was already warm.
The grandmother at the bottom talked a lot in detail, she lowered her eyes and listened, and then roughly understood the meaning.
Every time there is a palace banquet, all the people who are greedy for money will pretend to break the jade cup and the like inadvertently, and the masters will naturally not care where the broken jade piece goes, and it will fall into the pockets of those people.
There is no need to mention it once or twice, but if you let it go, it will inevitably ruin the atmosphere in the palace. At that time, everyone will be like this, and it will be a lot of loss to be tired.
After hearing this, she lowered her eyes and thought for a while, raised her eyes and said, "You don't have to distinguish whether it is deliberate or not, those who break the cup in the back will be compensated according to the price." ”
The grandmother was stunned, "This-"
"If there are any other difficulties, we will think about it again." When these words were released, those people knew that they would not be able to get oil and water from it, and they would not do it again. As for the unintentional, whether they really need to be compensated, that's a secret matter.
The grandmother glanced at the master at the top of the place, and saw that her expression was indifferent, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed, and she smiled and praised, "The little master is smart, and the slave will pass on the word." ”
