Above the main hall

Leng Yu issued a decree announcing that Liu Dechang was named the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses of Daning State, taking into account the duties of the Taishi, and the official residence was a good one, which also means that his rights are under the emperor and above ten thousand.

Jin Feng Leng Ming is the secretary of the ministry, and the official residence is the second grade.

Jin Feng Xiao Lingzi and Zhang Yuan were the generals of Zhenguo, and their official residence was from Yipin.

Jin Feng small jar, Ah Hou is an auxiliary general, and the official residence is the second grade.

Jin Feng Ayu, Xiao Ningzi is the guard with a knife in front of the palace, and the official residence is the second grade.

Jin Feng A Hong is the imperial edict, A Cai is a female official in the inner court, and the official residence is the fourth grade.

Feng Qin Shun is the father-in-law in front of the palace, and the official residence is the second grade.

Feng Baixiao is the leader of the father-in-law, and the official residence is from the second grade.

The reason why these two fathers-in-law are reused is because they are Liu Xi's favorite people, and they are also the people recommended by Liu Xi to Leng Yu.

Yu Shiming and several of his officials, because they said they were sick at home during the turmoil in the imperial court, and they did not have the determination to share the glory and disgrace with Daning State.

The positions of the remaining officials in the court remain unchanged for the time being,

After Qin Shun read out these news, he looked at everyone and said with a serious face again:

"Passing on my will, this spring's palace examination will be held in early April as usual as in previous years, and at that time, I will personally invigilate the examination and recruit talents, just for the prosperity of the Daning country."

When the people heard this, they knelt down and shouted in unison,

"The emperor is wise, and the country of Daning will be peaceful and prosperous."

Among these people, only Yu Shiming's face was ugly.

From today onwards, he has been demoted from a third-rank official to a sixth-rank official, which means that from now on, he will no longer have the right to go to the court to discuss matters.

The most important thing is that there is no Leng Xi in the list of emperors.

Although Leng Xi was at fault first, he also made meritorious contributions on the battlefield, thinking of this, Yu Shiming stepped forward unwillingly,

"Your Majesty, when the minister was in danger in Daning, he was bedridden due to illness and did not contribute to Daning, and the minister was ashamed, but the minister did not know anything."

The emperor knows Shiming's heart best, although he gives people a sense of honesty and honesty on the surface, he is actually a wall grass and a master who falls with the wind.

He nodded coldly,

"What is wrong with Lord Yu?"

"The emperor may think of all the people he wants to be promoted, why is there no prince of Xi? This time, he made a great contribution on the battlefield of repelling the Beihai people. ”

Seeing Yu Shiming mention his uncle, Leng Yu looked at him with the corners of his mouth raised,

"I have other arrangements for the prince of Xi, and I don't bother with adults."

After that, he said to Qin Shun:

"Retreat!"

After Qin Shun received the order, he shouted at the ministers of the court,

"Retreat."

Although Yu Shiming was quite dissatisfied with the emperor's answer, he didn't dare to ask more questions in the main hall.

The few officials who were demoted with him were all Leng Xi's people, and now it seems that Leng Yu deliberately targeted Leng Xi.

Right now, he is already unable to protect himself, where can he dare to say more to the emperor for Leng Xi?

After Yu Shiming left the palace, he went straight to the Xiwang Mansion.

He wanted to tell Leng Xi the news and let him make plans early.

……

Creek King's Mansion

Concubine Li came to Xiwang's Mansion yesterday, and today she began to set rules for the people in the mansion.

At this time, the subordinates of the entire Xiwang Mansion, including the few maidens she brought back, stood in front of her with their hands down, waiting for her lecture.

She looked at these people with blazing eyes, and said sharply,

"The mourning family has only been here for a day, and I found that you people are really too careless, and you are listless, is it because the Xiwang Mansion has not given you enough food, or does it owe you a lot of money?"

These subordinates hurriedly replied in unison:

"None of them."

"Nothing? So what do you look like like a plate of loose sand? According to the mourning family, it is Princess Xi who usually controls you too lightly. ”

After saying this, she looked at Yu Qiaoqiao,

"Look at these subordinates who are used to you, a person with a big waist and a round waist, usually eats a lot of good things, but he doesn't do much work, how did you become the princess of Xi?"

Yu Qiaoqiao pursed her lips and groaned for a while, and replied in a low voice:

"The lesson of the mother concubine is that the sons have not been in the Xiwang Mansion during this time, and they really lack control over them, this time the mother concubine is here, and please take care of them on behalf of the sons."

Yu Qiaoqiao's words made Concubine Li feel very useful.

She is used to disciplining others in the harem, and if she is not allowed to come here to be idle, she will be suffocated.

So, she rolled her eyes at these subordinates, and commanded in a cold voice:

"All of you, all of you are standing here, reflecting on how you should take this money with peace of mind in the future, and no one is allowed to leave without the will of the mourning family."

Hearing this, everyone lowered their heads and didn't dare to speak, except Xiaoying asked in a low voice:

"Concubine Li, Miss Xiaocui hasn't eaten at noon."

"Miss Cui?"

Concubine Li, who didn't know anything about this matter, suddenly frowned,

"Who's Miss Cui?"

Yu Qiaoqiao hurriedly stepped forward, attached herself to Concubine Li's ear, and muttered in a low voice,

"Xiaocui is the prince's bed warmer, and now she is pregnant with a child."

Hearing this, Concubine Li was stunned for a moment, and then asked in a cold voice:

"The people of the entire Xiwang Mansion have come out, why didn't she come out?"

After saying this, she pointed to Xiaoying,

"You, go and call her."

"Hui Concubine Li, Miss Xiaocui yelled that her stomach hurt last night, and she also said that if the slave maid dared to open the door, she would dare to kill the slave maid, so ...... The slave did not dare to call. ”

"Presumptuous."

Concubine Li suddenly became angry,

"What? Don't you dare to call it, do you still let the mourning family call it in person? ”

Seeing this, Yu Qiaoqiao hurriedly instructed Chun Tao and another girl:

"You two, go and call Miss Xiaocui and tell her that Concubine Li is invited."

After the two girls received the order, they walked towards Xiaocui's room.

Since Xiaocui was ordered to be locked up by Yu Qiaoqiao, she has been worried all day long, either crying or throwing things.

Xiaoying came to bring her food, but she also put it down and left, for fear that she would be angry and hit her head with something.

So, in her house, it's more messy.

The two girls opened the lock on the door, and when she pushed the door in, she sat up from the bed and asked in a loud voice:

"Is the prince going to see me?"

Chun Tao looked at her disdainfully,

"Concubine Li, please."

Leigh Taifei?

When she came to the house before, Xiaocui had seen it, but she didn't dare to take a straight look, and she didn't have a chance to talk to her.

She didn't know that Concubine Li had come to Xiwangfu to stay for a long time this time, so she suddenly had an idea.

She is pregnant with her grandson, and if she says a few good words in front of her later, maybe she will let the girl take extra care of her and let the prince treat her better.

Thinking of this, she couldn't wait to comb her hair, pull the corners of her clothes, and then take a big stride and walk outside with her toes high.

Before she reached the main courtyard, she began to cover her waist with her hands, looking like she was struggling to walk.

Chun Tao followed behind her, looking at her with some disdain,

"The princess said, you have only been more than two months, so you don't have to be like this."

She turned around and glared at Chun Tao,

"You haven't conceived a child, what do you know?"
