In the homes of big families, because they call Shunkou, the names of maids are generally fixed, so it is common for maids with different names from time to time.And Shui Jue is also different.Not only did her maids have fixed names, but the authority represented by each name was different.Such as Hongyun and Orangeyun are not only maidservants, but also secret guards, Lian Luo who is in charge of private information.Huang Yun, Lv Yun, Lan Yun, and Qing Yun, besides serving Shui Jue's daily life, also have a part of Shui Jue's external industry contact channels, and when they marry, they will also marry the stewards of that part of the property as housekeepers.Ziyun is only in charge of daily life and things in the mansion, she is considered as Shui Jue's real maid in the mansion, and also a substitute for Shui Jue's confidants.

If there is a maid in front of her who gets married, makes a mistake, or has other dispatches, Hong Yun and Orange Yun will re-select from the dark guards for training; You can fill in the previous position, if you fail to pass, leave the position empty, and Shui Jue will personally take over the news from that part of the channel.

The selection and ranking of Shui Jue's confidants are exactly the same as those around Shui Jing.Naturally, the maids she raised were all different.Ziyun can still be said to be a maid in the ordinary sense of the mansion, and the other big maids only deal with men's affairs.

Shui Jue trains the servants to be so shocking. Shui Jing said that her younger sister is really talented and intelligent, which is very different from others.

Yinglian can fill Ziyun's position, which shows how extraordinary this person is, and makes other maids in the mansion envious.After Yinglian got Ziyun's name, she has also learned to serve Shui Jue with her for a while these days, and Shui Jue also thinks that this person is good.But now that the family has found it, whether Yinglian stays or not depends on her own will.

Anyway, now she is just filling in the position, and she has not been exposed to many confidential matters in the mansion. If she wants to leave, she can return the deed of sale and give her a sum of money.Shui Jue has been served well and is easy to talk to.

It happened that Shui Jue was about to lose this game of chess to her brother, and she couldn't think of a way to turn the game over, so she reached out and overturned the chess piece, and took the channel in Lin Daiyu's hand: "Show me."

Shui Jing looked at the messy chessboard, dumbfounded.Isn't it just to win a game of chess, my sister is really stingy.But he got used to it, so he didn't get annoyed, he just asked people to clean up: "My sister, if you don't have any maids to use, just pick a few more from me."

"I'm just too lazy to re-teach." Shui Jue muttered, "Oh? I didn't expect that Ziyun is still a side branch of the Zhen family, a lady from a noble family."

"Oh?" Shui Jing was also interested, and leaned over to take a look, "This family is really unlucky. First they lost their daughter, then they were caught in a fire, and they were cheated of their wealth by the Feng family. But Zhen Shiyin is also, since I have been an official, at least I have something to support my family, so why do I have nothing when my home is burned, the money and land that cannot be burned are always there, why use all the land and property of the family to go to others, and end up as a family and escape from the world."

"I guess he's a foolish reader." Shui Jue casually flipped through the letter, "The Feng family can still make a living with needles and threads. But who is Jia Yucun? Why did you give Feng's only maid to me all the time when you kept saying to repay your kindness?" Take it away? Anyway, leave some money for Feng Shi to spend his days."

Shui Jing thought for a while, and he really had some impressions of that person: "It seems that he was a Jinshi in a certain year. He was a county magistrate first, and then he was dismissed as an official. He went to the Zhen family's mansion to be a teacher for the grandson of the Zhen family. After that, he left the Zhen family to travel around for a while. I went back to the Zhen family and was recommended by the Zhen family to become an official, and now I am the governor of Jinling, and it seems that I will soon be replaced by the governor of Shuntian."

"It seems that Jia Yucun went to see Feng Shi when he first became the county magistrate. It is said that the Feng family was nervous for a while, thinking that Jia Yucun would stand up for Feng Shi. Unexpectedly, he joined forces with Feng Shi to force Feng Shi's maid I didn't even give any money to the deed of sale." Jia Min is a woman, so naturally there are some gossips in the letter. These small details are clearly stated, and it seems that she has inquired carefully. I sent a servant girl to someone else, just asking Jia Yucun to pay more attention to her daughter's whereabouts. However, Jia Yucun has never contacted the Feng family again."

Shui Jing laughed and said, "So, that maid is a perfect match for Jia Yucun."

"That's right." Shui Jue also smiled.At first glance, Mrs. Feng was a well-meaning person, and her family was poor, so she never thought of selling the maid for money, but raised her as a daughter instead.It's a pity that the servant girl completely forgot about her master's affection after she gained power.Hearing that the maid has helped her upright and is now the upright Mrs. Yin of Jinling Mansion, I am afraid that she is even more reluctant to recall her maidservant's background.

"When Jia Yucun was in Jinling, he helped the Zhen family a lot. Now that he is about to be replaced by Shuntian Fu Yin, I don't know how many unjust, false and wrong cases will be found in this capital." Speaking of this, Shui Jing's face turned slightly pale. Shen.

Shui Jue sighed, and gently patted the back of Shui Jing's hand as comfort.

Even if these corrupt officials know their criminal evidence, but there is no conclusive evidence, even the emperor has nothing to do with them.Even if the emperor hates a person in a hurry, for the sake of reputation, for the stability of the officialdom, and for the stability of the rule, without conclusive evidence, he cannot dismiss a person from office indiscriminately.Not to mention that Shui Jing is just a prince now, even if he becomes the emperor in the future, Jia Yucun's hands and feet are clean, he has nothing to do with Jia Yucun, he can only transfer people away first, and then slowly stare at him.

However, if the emperor wants to punish people, he just needs to spend some time, and he can always rectify them.After all, it is impossible for people to do things without any flaws.

Now Shui Jing is calculating the accounts one by one, and one day, he will come to settle the accounts slowly.

"Mother Li." Shui Jue said.

"The old slave is here." Nanny Li has been wandering around since the time when Shui Jue overwhelmed the Shui Jing chess piece, and now she has come back to her senses.

"You can deal with this matter. It's up to you to decide whether she will stay or leave." Shui Jue handed the pages of letters with Ziyun's life experience to Nanny Li, "If Ziyun wants to take her mother over, You can arrange it yourself."

"Yes." Of course, Shui Jue would not personally ask about such trivial matters.However, Nanny Li has always been very kind to Ziyun, probably because of her love for her.Shui Jue entrusted this matter to Nanny Li because she had a good impression of Ziyun.

Nanny Li took the letter and retreated. Lin Daiyu watched Nanny Li go away, feeling a little sad that the amiable sister Ziyun was leaving, but she was happy when she thought that sister Ziyun could be reunited with her mother.

Although staying in Prince Rui's Mansion is good, Lin Daiyu always misses her family.However, through the princess's letter, Lin Daiyu can exchange a few thick letters with her family every month, and exchange items from time to time, so Lin Daiyu and her family have no birth relationship.

"By the way, didn't your mother send you some things for you to help with makeup?" After finishing speaking, Shui Jue laughed, "Lin Jiashi is also a wonderful person."

Shui Jing also couldn't laugh or cry.There has never been a saying about an unmarried woman adding makeup. Shui Jue was able to go because of her status as a princess.And Lin Daiyu went to add makeup on behalf of the Lin family, which is really ridiculous.But Lin Daiyu was going to follow Shui Jue, she was young and didn't have so many rules.And Lin Daiyu is the only one in the Lin family in the capital.So even if Lin Daiyu goes, she won't be talked about, it will just be passed on as an interesting talk.Most of these people thought it was Shui Jue's instruction, or it was because the Lin family intended to befriend Prince Rui and Princess Rui.

"I must be the youngest among those who added makeup." Lin Daiyu said old-fashioned.

Shui Jue and Shui Jing immediately laughed.

..................................

Time flies, Shui Jue returns to Beijing in the spring, something happens in the East Palace in the summer, and after the dowry of Prince Rui and Princess Rui is settled in the autumn, the year is turning around.

The army was still fighting at the border, and seemed to be in a stalemate, so the emperor was not in a good mood.In order to pray for the blessings of the border guards, this year's annual banquet in the palace is also kept simple, even ordering wives to enter the palace is avoided, and only the emperor holds a family banquet.

Even if it was a family banquet, the food was almost cold when it was brought to the table.So Shui Jue entered the palace after eating full in advance.

As soon as the Queen Mother saw Shui Jue, she happily pulled her to sit next to her, and the maid also consciously brought a small embroidered pier, letting Lin Daiyu sit obediently beside Shui Jue, being teased from time to time, acting as a pistachio.

"Why does Daiyu seem to have lost weight?" The emperor also came over.He saw Shui Jue often, but Lin Daiyu hadn't seen him for several months.He remembered that he was a chubby doll before, but now he has lost so much weight.

"At Daiyu's age, it's time for her to grow taller." The queen mother said with a smile, "Aijia remembers that Changxing was still a little fleshy when he was a child, and he was also thinner at this age. How do the folks say... yes, it's called pumping strip, just like the willow branch."

"Oh, it's starting to draw, and in a few days, Daiyu will grow into a beautiful girl." The emperor laughed, and pulled Shui Jue to sit next to him, "Listen to the fourth son, Are you tossing on the ice again? You are not in good health, don't freeze."

The corner of Shui Jue's mouth twitched, and he was very dissatisfied with his brother who complained indiscriminately: "I saw my brother having fun playing on the ice, so I went to play with him, so there is no trouble. And I wear thick clothes every time."

"Is the fourth child still so childlike?" The emperor widened his eyes, "Bingxi is fun, but it's easy to get cold after sweating, so you should avoid going outside."

"No." Shui Jue began to play tricks, "I will wear thick clothes, and I will drink medicine later, let me go."

"Couldn't you just pester your brother like this?" The emperor laughed.He said why the fourth year was struggling to ask for help.The fourth brother loves his sister so much, Shui Jue can't help himself when he pesters her, so he can only help himself, "Okay, okay, you can play around, but you must pay attention to the time. It is not allowed to exceed half an hour a day. Otherwise I will decree that you will not be allowed to go to the ice again."

Shui Jue curled her lips: "Hmph, okay, okay, Shui Jue leads the order, hum."

"This small mouth can hang a teapot." The emperor nodded Shui Jue and laughed loudly.

Lin Daiyu's body trembled.Even though she saw Shui Jue doing this countless times in the palace, she felt horrified every time.Reminiscent of Shui Jue's real appearance, this is really chilling.

The emperor and Shui Jue laughed and quarreled for a while, and the princes who were on errands finally arrived one after another.Shui Jue returned to her seat and began to wait for the banquet.

During the family banquet, the prince would always bring the concubine and the child with him.Due to an accident in the East Palace, the prince would bring the princess and the child here in previous years, but now he is the only one left.Although there were a few concubines and concubines, their mothers all died suddenly because of that incident, and their births were stained, so it was naturally impossible to bring them here.

However, these days the emperor has returned to being intimate with the prince, and because the prince is frightened, he will reward people with money after a while, so the prince is now proud of himself, and he can't see that he is uncomfortable coming here alone.

Shui Jing has always kept a low profile, and the emperor has never expressed intimacy and importance to Shui Jing in front of others, so this family banquet is still for Prince Yong and the prince to gain attention.However, because the Seventh Prince went to the south of the Yangtze River to make meritorious service, appease the scholars of Shilin, and was named a virtuous prince, he is now very proud, so at this family banquet, the Seventh Prince also made a lot of limelight.

Speaking of the "virtuous" title of the Seventh Prince, it has made the Seventh Prince proud for a long time.But Shui Jue just smiled and said nothing.It can only be said that the authorities are confused by the bystanders.

The Seventh Prince went to the south of the Yangtze River, blatantly wooing the students from the south of the Yangtze River, and sending people everywhere to promote his reputation, and the reputation of that virtuous person spread to the capital.In the court, there were also many courtiers who praised the Seventh Prince as wise and wise.The emperor said, since you all say that he is wise, then you can make him Prince Xian, and by the way, restore the mother of the seventh prince to her original position.

The seventh prince was very happy, the prince was very unhappy, and Prince Yong was very complicated.Ever since the Seventh Prince was rejected, Prince Yong stayed away from the Seventh Prince. Although the Seventh Prince tried to repair the relationship before going to Jiangnan, everyone knew that it was only a superficial intimacy.Seeing the Seventh Prince gaining power, Prince Yong had to think about whether a new opponent appeared.However, although the mother of the Seventh Prince is a concubine, her family background is not high, and there is no big family support behind her, so Prince Yong just suspected one or two, and left her behind.For him, the crown prince is still the greatest threat.Even Prince Rui, who has been keeping calm all this time, is more threatening than the Seventh Prince.

At this time, Prince Yong was smart.

The word "Xian" and the prince's title are actually quite ironic.

Since skipping the fifth prince and winning the prince, there must be a reason.In terms of seniority and order, the fifth prince is still the king of the county.In terms of background, Concubine Yi was the lowest.In terms of credit, the Seventh Prince has been on duty for so long, and has never done anything that benefits the country and the people. Even if it is the case of Jiangnan, the emperor sent him to appease him after he had dealt with it.Speaking of credit, it's really nothing, nothing compared to Prince Yong who was gilded on the battlefield.Prince Yong went to the battlefield and at least killed a few enemies, and the battlefield was indeed blind. Even if Prince Yong was protected by layers of protection, it was still a bit dangerous.If it is the degree of favor, let alone.So the canonization of the prince is really strange.

And it was also very interesting when the emperor titled the king of Xianjun, the general idea was "Since you all say that he is wise and virtuous, then I will make him Prince Xian."Look, the canonizations of other princes are all "what do I think of this son", this comparison can reveal the mystery.The canonization of the Emotional Emperor seems to be persecuted.

But why did the Seventh Prince not persecute?First, the students helped him spread his reputation, then the public praised him everywhere, and finally the ministers praised him.He did a good job of manipulating public opinion, but he forgot that the emperor was still alive and well.The emperor watched his son run to manipulate public opinion from above, and he almost said that this son is very suitable to be an emperor. Can he feel comfortable?

Gong Gaogaizhu means that someone's prestige surpasses that of the emperor, and such people usually have to die.In the same way, the emperor would not allow any son or courtier to be so powerful in public opinion, that would simply despise the king.

When the emperor bestowed the "virtuous" according to the seventh prince's will, and issued such an intriguing decree, the future of the seventh prince was doomed.

It's a pity that people in the play couldn't understand it, and even the courtiers understood it as the emperor agreeing with the public opinion, thinking that the seventh prince is wise.

Shui Jing was startled at first, but Shui Jue understood.Shui Jue, a person outside the true throne vortex with the prince's thinking, can only see the emperor's devious ways - after all, she was once the only real powerful prince trusted by the emperor, and it is a piece of cake for her to speculate on the holy will.

The crown prince, Prince Yong, and Prince Xian had all sung, recited, played, and played at the family banquet. King Shunjun had always been a wooden man, while Prince Rui played Tai Chi very smoothly, and he was a fox who didn't eat oil or salt.

On the side of the women's family, the newly-appointed virtuous princess finally felt elated, and now there is no crown prince over them. The two princes and concubines talk to each other, and it sounds like they are in harmony, but in the words I don't know how many times the confrontation has passed.One can imagine that the relationship between Prince Yong and Prince Xian is not as good as it appears on the surface.

Shui Jue naturally wouldn't get involved, she chatted with Princess Shunjun who was more silent than King Shunjun.But after talking for a few words, she lost her energy.If the king of Shunjun is pretending to be a wooden person, then the concubine of Shunjun is really a wooden person.This obedience is respectful, but it doesn't even have any popularity. It is probably an overkill, and the rules are really imitated.

That Prince Xian raised his eyebrows, and as soon as he pushed Princess Yong over his head, he saw the silence between Shui Jue and Princess Shunjun, so he came over and said: "I heard that Princess Rui is a well-behaved person like Sister-in-law Wu, you are blessed in Changxing gone."

Shui Jue knew that Princess Xian was talking ironically to sow discord, to the effect that Princess Rui was a wooden person who accepted the rules, and it would be impossible for Shui Jue to be so carefree in Prince Rui's mansion in the future.After all, Shui Jue is helping the housekeeper of Prince Rui's mansion, other people don't know, but people in the royal family still know.

If Shuijue is a spoiled little girl, maybe she will feel unhappy because her brother's attention will be robbed and she will be disciplined by a strange woman.But is Shui Jue an ordinary person?

Shui Jue had a thousand and ten thousand rebuttals in her mind, and it was rare for her to say them out.What's the point of arguing, she's still thirsty.

She watched Princess Xian holding tea to cover her face with a smile that was not a smile for a while. Under the cover of her skirt, she lightly touched the leg of Princess Xian's chair, and Princess Xian immediately rushed to the banquet. up, with a loud bang.

Shui Jue withdrew his feet, put on a panicked expression like the people around him, and did not forget to shed a few tears.Compared with the numbness on Princess Shunjun's face and Princess Yongqin's schadenfreude that she tried to conceal, her expression is considered the most natural.

The chairs in the palace are all four-cornered chairs covered with animal skins underneath, and the friction force is very strong in addition to the marble slabs on the ground.As long as you sit firmly on the chair, even if someone pushes behind the chair, you may not be able to push it.And if you want to lift Princess Xian up with this solid wooden chair, you probably need a trained giant.That's why Shui Jue's light lift with his feet made Prince Xian fall on the mat. Except for Shui Jing who could guess what was going on, no one else could have guessed it.

Even Princess Xian couldn't guess it herself.If it was said that Shui Jue hooked her stool on a slippery garden and knocked her down, no one would believe it.But the solid wooden chairs in this palace are heavy, the ground is still so rough, and she is sitting firmly on the back of the chair, unless someone pushes desperately from behind, it is possible to push her to the front of the chair Jumping up.Shui Jue absolutely can't do it.

Others looked at it and thought that it must be Princess Xian who just wanted to stand up to do something, such as toasting, giving a respect, etc., and accidentally stepped on the skirt or slipped and fell down. As for whether someone tripped after the slippery foot After a while, you can tell by the smile leaked from Princess Yong's eyes.

As for Princess Xian herself, she thought she had run into a ghost, and coupled with such a big ugliness, it was like a fire was burning in her heart, completely bewildered.

And Prince Xian's face was also very exciting, as if he wished to kill the princess who had made him ashamed and humiliated.

The emperor's complexion was naturally even worse, especially when there were several daughter-in-laws sitting there, all of whom were screaming, and the concubines would only cover their mouths to scream louder than anyone else, even Concubine Yi was stunned there. reaction.In the end, it was Shui Jue who came to his senses, ordered people to clean up in an orderly manner, and helped Princess Xian, who was injured by the broken bowl, to change her clothes and heal her injuries.

"How old is Changxing?" The queen mother couldn't help mumbling to the emperor.She didn't say what she said after that, but the emperor already understood what she meant.

Changxing is only 11 years old, how old are those royal wives?How old are those concubines?Not as good as a girl doll!While the emperor was proud that his daughter was really different than ordinary people, calm, intelligent and capable, he was very displeased with those screaming women who caused headaches.Especially Concubine Yongqin, you can just yell, can you cover up the corners of your mouth anyway?Could it be that the daughter-in-law he married to his sons was really so evil, and had to have the same personality as his son?

In fact, this is really no wonder Princess Yongqin.She was angry just now, but when she saw Qinqin and Princess Xian making such a big mess, her true feelings were naturally reflected on her expression.She is also used to acting, so she can quickly adjust her expression, at least it looks more natural.

It's just that compared to the one next to her who was stunned and genuinely surprised, the one who had already prepared her mentally so her expression was very natural, the difference in her expression was particularly obvious.

This family banquet ended in disgrace.Shui Jing quietly leaned into Shui Jue's ear and said, "Are your feet hurting? Are you hungry? Go home and make hot pot, don't you want to eat boiled mutton?"

Shui Jue nodded in horror.

Lin Daiyu lowered her head, she was really frightened.She happened to be able to hear the words of these two people, and hurriedly raised her head to look at the emperor. Seeing that the emperor was looking at this side in relief, she felt very embarrassed.
