The sunset is shining, and the entire Qianqing Palace is shining with golden light. Niu Mengmeng, who wore a cute double-tailed bun, walked slowly along the road from the direction of Qianqingmen with a little flower cat in his arms, and suddenly stopped in place, squinting at the sunset with a bun face consciously, and a bright smile bloomed on his face.

Zhu Youjiao, who was wearing regular clothes, came out of the East Warm Pavilion to prepare for dinner, and when he saw Niu Mengmeng standing stupidly on the road, he suddenly found that he had really raised a stupid palace maid by his side.

"Your Majesty, come and take a look at the sunset, it's really beautiful today!" Niu Mengmeng suddenly noticed Zhu Youzhu who appeared, and pointed to the west side of the road excitedly.

Guo Yong saw Niu Mengmeng's appearance, and immediately reprimanded in a deep voice: "Niu Mengmeng, how can you be so unruly, quickly kneel to Your Majesty!" ”

"Slaves and maids kneel to Your Majesty!" Niu Mengmeng knew that Guo Yongyuan was stricter than Liang Fang, so he immediately knelt down and saluted.

Zhu Youzhu knew that he was indeed more strict with the palace maids and eunuchs, but he ignored Niu Mengmeng, who was startled, and didn't even glance at the sunset in the west, and walked straight past Niu Mengmeng.

"Your Majesty, it is easy to divide the Qianqing Palace into districts. This bedroom and the East Warm Pavilion are naturally the most important, followed by the dining room and bathroom, and then the outside area, but how to reward and punish it? Guo Yong carefully wrote down Zhu Youzhang's words, and then asked again.

Zhu Youzhu looked at the palace maids and eunuchs kneeling on the ground around him, and said as a matter of course: "Naturally, those who understand the rules will be rewarded more, those who don't understand the rules will be rewarded less, and those who have meritorious service will be rewarded, and I have to give them benefits so that they can know who is the master!" ”

"Your Majesty, in this way, the expenses of the Qianqing Palace will increase a lot!" Guo Yong knew that this was Zhu Youjiao, and this was a favor to the people around him, but he reminded him seriously.

Zhu Youzhu thought of the stolen silver of Chen Zhun and Xie Yikui who were confiscated, as well as the stolen silver of Li Min and others on the road, but he didn't blink his eyes and said: "There are only a few people in our Qianqing Palace, and it won't be in the way to increase the reward!" It's just that I have to put pressure on them, and if they don't pass for two months in a row, they will report to me to decide to stay! ”

"Okay, the slave will take out the charter tonight! If they don't know how to cherish it, then let them suffer elsewhere! Guo Yong took it down carefully and said resolutely.

Zhu Youzhu watched the palace maids and eunuchs around him bow their heads, but he knew that it was indeed more effective to quote the more scientific management regulations of the previous life.

Originally, he didn't want to waste his energy on managing the personnel affairs of the Qianqing Palace, but Xie Yikui's matter made him have to pay attention to it, even if the palace maids and eunuchs who were loyal to him in Tianzheng might be tempted by material.

In order to prevent forces inside or outside the palace from infiltrating the Qianqing Palace, then his best course of action is to increase his financial qualifications and at the same time carry out a combination of grace and power.

The biggest motivation for the rebellion of many palace maids or eunuchs was that the salary given by the Ming court was too low, and only the money they gave could meet the needs of other people's pensions, so that they could get real loyalty.

After Zhu Youzhu figured this out, in addition to building a pyramid system in the personnel of the Qianqing Palace, he also decided to build a pyramid in salary.

As night fell, the lights of the East Warm Pavilion came on. Dozens of people living in the Qianqing Palace all revolved around Zhu Youjiao, and with the trial of the double salary system in the Qianqing Palace, the enthusiasm of the palace maids and eunuchs was greatly stimulated.

Even the Qingliu officials who claim to be saints are greedy for money, not to mention the palace maids and eunuchs from poor families, so they are naturally very excited and looking forward to the salary increase.

Niu Mengmeng has become a little expert in ink research, and he can already study ink while talking, but he can't help but ask: "Your Majesty, is the slave going to go outside to find Xiaohua today to be deducted points?" ”

"The point deduction system was just arranged tonight, but it won't be implemented until tomorrow! By the way, the palace maid who came in today to deliver sandalwood doesn't seem to have seen it? Zhu Youzhu dealt with the sparseness in his hand, and immediately thought of the palace maid who was in charge of sandalwood.

Niu Mengmeng thought seriously for a while, and replied: "Sister Erya arranged it, it seems that she has just been transferred from other palaces, her name is Qiu Xiang!" ”

"Akika?" Zhu Youzhu couldn't help but think of Tang Bohudao. Niu Mengmeng turned his head to look at Zhu Youjiao, nodded solemnly: "Yes, the slave maid remembers that this is the name, isn't it beautiful?" ”

"I didn't pay much attention, but I was here today to talk about important things, and she didn't come in at the right time!" Zhu Youzhu read the next note and said very casually.

Niu Meng's eyes immediately widened, and he said in surprise: "Huh? Why doesn't she know the rules better than a slave? ”

"I don't think you're much better!" Zhu Youzhu glanced at her, and said disparagemently. Niu Mengmeng's brows furrowed, and he defended very seriously: "If Your Majesty summons the courtiers, the slaves and maids will all retreat, and the slaves and maids will be stronger than her!" ”

"Then you help me keep an eye on this Qiu Xiang, I think she has a problem!" Zhu Youzhu looked at the impeachment of Wang Yue by local officials again, so he directly put it aside and said.

Niu Mengmeng had absolute loyalty, and immediately nodded happily: "Okay, slaves hate bad people who eat inside and outside the house!" The slave maid heard that there were other people's eyeliner in the Qianqing Palace before, and the first emperor was furious about this, but in the end he couldn't find who it was! ”

"Did someone else put you in?" Zhu Youjiao's heart moved slightly, but he suddenly asked.

Niu Mengmeng pointed to his nose and said in shock: "Me? ”

"Joke! In the future, help me take care of the East Warm Pavilion, and idle people are not allowed to enter! Zhu Youzhu saw the girl's reaction in his eyes, and said with a smile.

Niu Mengmeng put down the hand pointing at his nose and assured seriously: "Well, last time Sister Erya came in, the slave maid said that she was there, and the slave maid wanted to help His Majesty stay here!" ”

"Good job, this month's five salaries are yours?" Zhu Youzhu knew that although Niu Mengmeng lacked heart, he had a very high loyalty, and he promised it.

Niu Mengmeng's eyes lit up slightly, and he began to break his fingers.

"Don't break it, you don't have enough fingers!" Zhu Youzhu knew that this woman's arithmetic was not good, so he directly attacked the tunnel.

As the night deepened, the wax tables of the East Warm Pavilion changed one after another. Zhu Youzhu is a self-disciplined person, and in the face of the turmoil of the two capitals and thirteen provinces, he also dealt with it diligently, striving to make this dynasty run more efficiently.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late, it's time for you to rest!" Liu Jin walked over lightly and reminded softly.

Zhu Youzhu stretched his waist and looked up at the window. Since you don't have to go to the morning pilgrimage tomorrow, you can get up late.

It's just that now that the weather is getting colder and colder, he is becoming more and more resistant to the early dynasty in his heart, and there are obviously more and more officials who are absent from work.

In fact, the early dynasty of thousands of officials listening to the government is really a formality, and the things that have been finalized are directly implemented, but the result is that they have to get up early in the morning to go to a ceremony, which is useless except for consuming their own energy.

As the weather is getting colder, the room I live in today is the cramped one. Erya was still in charge of warming the bed, but tonight the whole person seemed very silent, and the beautiful angel face exuded a trace of pity on my face.

Zhu Youzhu opened his hands and asked the palace maid to remove her clothes, thanks to the layout of the room here and the floor heating, he would not feel cold here, but felt that the current weather was just right.

Liu Jin watched Zhu Youzhu walk towards the dragon bed, couldn't help but yawn, and was about to retreat to rest.

"You will go back to the Shangshan Bureau tomorrow to be a consul palace maid!" Zhu Youzhu looked at Erya who was about to leave, and suddenly made a decision.

Erya's delicate body trembled, and those watery eyes looked at Zhu Youzhu and begged: "The slave wants to stay by Your Majesty's side!" ”

"Heh, how do you make me believe in you again?" Zhu Youzhu suddenly found that this woman's shrewdness no longer existed, so he asked rhetorically in her watery eyes.

Erya stretched out her hand and pulled the rope on her chest, and the purple gauze clothes that were put on the outside slipped down from both sides of her arms, and suddenly it was a flash of spring, and her watery eyes looked at Zhu Youzhu with affection.

Seeing this, Liu Jin hurriedly waved his hand to let the palace maids and eunuchs who wanted to see the excitement leave, but he carefully observed the movements inside.

But seeing Erya being pushed down on the bed, and His Majesty looked at him, he was so frightened that he hurriedly beckoned the female official who was responsible for recording His Majesty's daily life to leave together.

The female official who was responsible for recording His Majesty's daily life wrote hard: "At three o'clock, the night is slightly cool, Erya warms the bed and wants to retreat, the emperor peeps at his thin clothes, pushes Ya in the dragon bed, stares back at the eunuch Liu Jin and the others, gets off the dragon curtain, and does the fortunate thing in the curtain, and the posture is unknown!" ”
