[Qing Chuan] Gongdou system of black lotus

"Ma'am, this matter hasn't come out yet, maybe Long Live Lord will choose someone else in the end." Xiao Zhuzi looked at Gu Qianqian's face and said cautiously.

Gu Qianqian shook her head, and her radiant earrings swayed slightly, "No, Lord Long Live will definitely let Fucha Fu Heng take over Master Liu's position."

Although the number of times she met Fucha Fu Heng was very small, just in case, Gu Qianqian had already had people collect information about Fucha Fu Heng. She had been prepared before, but now it just happened to come in handy.Fucha Fu Heng came from a famous family, but he is both civil and military. This is very rare, but what is even more rare is that no one has said anything bad about this person until now.

Think about it, how terrible this is. In this palace, struggle, robbery, and intrigue are the norm.In such an environment, Fucha Fu Heng was able to be impeccable, even the eunuchs mentioned him with a lot of admiration and awe.

It's not that Gu Qianqian has never seen this kind of ability. Empress Fucha is an example, but Empress Fucha's methods are obviously not as good as Fucha Fu Heng.The depth of his mind is probably comparable to those of the academicians who have been in the officialdom for decades.Such a person can still be regarded as a confidant and a friend by Qianlong. Thinking about it makes one's scalp tingle.

There was interest in Gu Qianqian's eyes, and she said decisively: "Maybe within a few days, Fucha's bodyguard will take up his post."

"Ah? This?" Xiao Zhuzi's eyes widened, and she looked at Gu Qianqian in astonishment, as if she didn't understand why their mother was so excited at this moment.

"Mother, shall we remind Master Tong Jia?" Xiaozhuzi rolled his eyes and said after deliberation, since it can't stop this matter, then it can't do nothing.

"No." Gu Qianqian picked up the teacup, lifted the lid and gently brushed off the tea leaves on it. She said in a cold and heartless tone, "We will not do anything."

For more than a year, that Lord Tong Jia has only helped her a little bit, other than that, he has not had much contact with her, and his attitude is very obvious. This adult obviously looks down on her, or maybe not I don't like it, but I have a bigger plan. In this year's general election, Tong Jia's family also has several women who will enter the palace to be elected. Instead of helping other people, it is more appropriate to help their own family members. Everyone understands this truth.But Gu Qianqian's kindness is not so easy to solve.

A little favor just wants to offset the benefits she has brought him, which is too cheap for him.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, it would be good to knock down this self-righteous Master Tong Jia neatly, lest she does not make a move, this Master Tong Jia really thinks that the black hat on his head is earned by himself.

Xiao Zhuzi was confused about Gu Qianqian's arrangement, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions, he nodded honestly, said yes, and stood aside.

Two days later, on the sixth day of March, early in the morning, all the concubines in the harem paid their respects to the Empress Dowager at the Palace of Compassion.

Concubine Gao made witty remarks, and she sang and talked with Concubine Yi, making the Empress Dowager smile.

The other concubines sat aside, some were jealous, some turned a blind eye.

Just at this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and the Empress Dowager's confidant, Nanny Qian, came over from the small kitchen, and the maid behind her was holding a food box, which contained a Saili horse, which was a Manchu People's desserts are made of white flour, rock sugar, and butter. The Queen Mother loves this one, so the imperial chef in the small kitchen is also the best at making this dessert.

"Okay, Sailima is finally here. Nanny Qian quickly take it to the imperial concubine so that she can shut her mouth." The queen mother smiled so hard that she couldn't see her eyes, she pointed her hand at the noble concubine Gao, her tone full of jokes.

Qian Momo showed a smile on her face, she turned sideways, asked the maid to open the food box, and brought the Sai Lima to the Queen Mother and others in order, and even Gu Qianqian put a plate of Sai Lima in front of her.

"The concubine has been thinking day and night about the Saili horse from the Empress Dowager's place recently, and today it can be regarded as her wish come true." Concubine Gao smiled all over her face. She picked up a piece of Saili horse and took a bite as if she couldn't wait, with a satisfied expression on her face. "Sure enough, the Sai Lima from the Empress Dowager's place is delicious."

Her attitude is very useful to the Queen Mother.

The Empress Dowager smiled even wider. She pointed at Concubine Gao, turned her face to the Empress and said, "Look, this Concubine is still a child. One or two, the Ai family will feel relieved."

The queen smiled and echoed: "The younger sister of the noble concubine has the heart of a child, and it is rare to have a clear heart of the child, why bother to learn from the concubine?"

Gu Qianqian was slowly biting the Sai Lima, and when she heard the queen's comment, she almost couldn't help laughing out loud. If you want to talk about yin and yang, you have to belong to the queen's rank.

For the past two months, Lord Long Live has not summoned Concubine Gao to serve him. It is estimated that the Empress Dowager was in a hurry and wanted to force the Empress in front of the crowd and ask the Empress to help the Concubine. Unfortunately, the Empress would not accept this at all. With a single sentence, the Queen Mother's words were echoed back.

She had a good time watching the show, and unknowingly ate more, and when she came back to her senses, her throat felt greasy, and her whole mouth was filled with the sweet and greasy taste of rock sugar and honey, which was very greasy.Desserts like Sailima are calorie bombs, so sweet that it makes people feel tired, and it is only the elderly who have a taste disorder like the queen mother who finds it delicious.It's hard for Concubine Gao to eat this kind of stuff twice a day in order to flatter the Queen Mother at such a young age.

Gu Qianqian took a sip of tea, and after suppressing the sweet taste in her mouth with the bitter taste of the tea, she felt better.

When she raised her eyes again, she saw that the empress dowager's expression was slightly gloomy, and she seemed a little displeased. Seeing this, Qian Momo smiled and said: "Speaking of which, I almost forgot to tell the empress the good news."

"What good news?" The queen mother's heart moved slightly, and she looked at Qian Momo and asked.

"My servant just heard that Lord Long Live has appointed Fucha's bodyguard as the head of the House of Internal Affairs. Fucha's bodyguard is only in his early twenties. He is so important at such a young age. The future is bound to be bright. Empress Dowager, is this good news for you? "Mommy Qian said with a smile.

The Queen Mother's eyes lit up, she seemed to be thinking of something, and looked at the Queen with a smile, "This is indeed good news, Queen, what do you think?"

"What the empress dowager said is very true. The concubine did not expect that the Lord Long Live would think so highly of my younger brother." Empress Fucha was stunned, and quickly recovered her face. Although she was happy, she was neither humble nor overbearing.

"The queen's words are modest. I heard that Fucha's bodyguards are both literary and martial arts. There is nothing wrong with it. The six arts of a gentleman are perfect. If such a good man is not reused, who else can be reused?" The queen mother smiled and looked very kind. Amiable, as if the person with the gloomy face just now was not her, such a change of face really made people dumbfounded.

"Speaking of which, aren't Fucha's guards married yet?" The queen mother rolled her eyes and said meaningfully.

Everyone sitting in the hall was stunned for a moment, and then all of them showed expressions of excitement and joy.Among the concubines sitting here, which family has no sisters to marry, even if there are no sisters, there are girls of the right age in the family.Fucha Fu Heng's conditions are so good that no matter how picky Fujin is, he can't pick any thorns. If he can marry his own daughter to him, it will definitely make all the women of the right age in the capital jealous to death.

After all, entering the door is the order of a third-rank lady, and there is at least a [-]% chance of becoming a first-rank lady in the future. Which woman would not be tempted by such a marriage? !

The queen clenched her hands secretly, a surge of anger welled up in her heart, her brother was not married yet, it was because their family hadn't picked a good man so far, and felt that the women who came to kiss her before were not worthy of her brother.Not surprisingly, Fucha Fu Heng will be the future patriarch of the Fucha family, who will rule the fate of the Fucha family. His wife's position is very important. Not only must he be both internal and external, but he must also be a lady from a famous family.These two conditions are only the most basic. Their family chose thousands of choices, not for the Queen Mother to threaten her now!

Suppressing the anger in her heart, and thinking about how to get revenge in the future, Empress Fucha showed a smile on her face, "Empress Dowager, my brother-in-law's temperament is uncertain, and he said that he wants to start a career before starting a family. If he doesn't build a great career, he will never Will consider marriage. The concubines Ama and Erniang can't resist his temper, so they have no choice but to let him go."

In her sentence, she almost expressly rejected the Queen Mother's offer of marriage, and she did not hesitate to mention her parents to remind the Queen Mother not to go too far.

But her words can't change the empress dowager's meaning.

What's more, she just rejected the Queen Mother just now.

The queen mother smiled, and said indifferently: "Establishing a career and getting married, it's no big deal. Fucha's guards are at this age, look at the family, it's better to start a family first, and I will spread the branches and leaves for your Fucha family as soon as possible." Isn't it a good thing? He is young and speaks foolishly, so you can't let him, you should find a Fujin for him as soon as possible."

What the queen could say, she could only say yes with a smile on her face, but the aura on her body was so cold that people dare not look directly at it.

Seeing her reaction like this, the queen mother hesitated for a moment. After all, she didn't dare to directly appoint Fujin of Fucha Fu Heng. She brought up this matter with the intention of beating the queen and letting her know the price of rejecting her.But the queen mother may not really dare to offend the queen and the Fucha family to death for the sake of Gao Guifei.As soon as she opened her golden mouth and made a decree, the Fucha family had no choice but to marry back the person she had appointed, but looking back, the Niu Gulu family could not afford the revenge of the Fucha family.

"Okay, Aijia just said something casually. If you look after your sister-in-law for your younger brother in the future, Aijia can give them a marriage." The Queen Mother changed her mind, and a kind smile appeared on her face, like a kind The old lady is average.

"The concubine first thanked the empress dowager on behalf of my younger brother." The empress heaved a sigh of relief, lowered her head docilely, her breath was subdued, and she returned to the gentle and harmless empress again. She turned her eyes and looked at Gao Guifei, saying: "Sister Guifei seems to be in much better health now. If you are free these few days, you may wish to visit me as a guest."

"Then bother the empress." Concubine Gao said kindly.

The queen's lips curled up, but there was no smile in her eyes.

Holding a cup of tea, Gu Qianqian slowly used the tea to suppress the sweetness in her mouth, thinking, the Queen Mother's method of slapping a sweet date today is really smooth.

No wonder she is a woman who can become the queen mother. Although the previous methods were rough, but if she really wants to be ruthless, she really cannot be underestimated.

Be careful with the Empress Dowager.

Gu Qianqian thought to herself, among other things, if the Empress Dowager casually points someone to her natal family, she will be able to disgust her natal family to death.However, fortunately, her brothers have all become relatives, so the queen mother's trick will not work.

Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The four heads of the House of Internal Affairs are gathering in a study room. The old Mr. Liu, who has already retired, is full of smiles. He is a smiling tiger with a gray beard. He has always been proud of his beard. At this time, Mr. Liu is Stuffing his beard, he introduced Lord Sitara and Lord Tong Jia with a smile on his face: "This is Chief Fucha, I think you are all familiar with it, so I don't need to introduce more."

Lord Sitara smiled, glanced at the tall Fucha Fu Heng, and said, "Chief Fucha has come to our place so many times, and they are old friends. What else do you want to introduce?"

Master Tong Jia was expressionless, looking straight at Fucha Fu Heng with eyes like an eagle, those eyes were dark and gloomy, which made the person being watched feel creepy, "Master Fucha is young and promising."

A Fucha manager, a Fucha lord, distinguished the friends and foes in this study very clearly.

"Your Majesty Tong Jia is just joking. I was just temporarily forced by the Long Live Lord to become the head of the House of Internal Affairs. I can't be called young and promising." Fu Cha Fu Heng's tone was particularly modest.

Master Tong Jia laughed out loud, but didn't believe it.

Master Liu stroked his beard, and smiled meaningfully beside him, "Since everyone knows each other, this old man will not talk too much, Chief Fucha, I will rely on you and the two adults to manage the House of Internal Affairs from now on, old man I have to go back to the mansion to pack my luggage and go back to my hometown, so I won't be staying for long."

"Why is Master Liu so anxious?" Xi Talamtai looked at Liu Boren in surprise.

There was a puzzled look in his eyes, and his eyes subconsciously wandered around Liu Boren and Fucha Fu Heng. In his opinion, Fucha and Fu Heng were capable, but now that he had just taken office, why should Liu Boren be in the capital? Leave it for a month or so, so that if something goes wrong, Liu Boren can also provide some help to Fucha and Fu Heng. What's more, the transfer of Liu Boren's contacts is not something that can be resolved in a short while.

"This old man has been thinking about becoming an official for three or four years. Can you not be in a hurry? From today onwards, this old man will start traveling around the mountains and rivers to see all the great rivers and mountains of our Qing Dynasty." Liu Boren said happily, his old face was rosy, and he could see that It's really nice.

Xita Lamutai was puzzled, but because Tong Jia Wumu was here, he couldn't ask more questions, so he could only say: "Then I wish Master Liu a smooth journey."

"I accept your auspicious words." Liu Boren cupped his fists at Xita Lamutai.

He said: "The old man will leave first. If you are destined, see you some other day."

"Let me give you a ride." Fucha Fu Heng said with a smile.

Liu Boren shook his head, "No need, the old man can go by himself." After saying this, he bowed his hands to everyone, and then walked away with his head held high.

Liu's carriage had already been prepared outside the Donghua Gate, which was a palace gate that only cabinet officials were allowed to enter and leave. Because Liu Boren had become an official, Qianlong granted him permission to leave through the Donghua Gate.

When he walked out of Donghua Gate, Liu Boren looked up at the sky. It was a sunny day in March with no clouds in the sky. Only at this time did he feel as if he was in the world.

After decades of ups and downs in the officialdom, every step of the way is difficult and dangerous, and there are crises everywhere. From now on, he can be regarded as returning to freedom.

"Master." The butler of the Liu residence trotted over.

Liu Boren clasped his hand and said cheerfully: "Old Sun, today is really a good day."

Hearing this, Butler Sun smiled, "You are right."

At three o'clock in the unitary hour, the carriage of the Liu Mansion departed from the gate of the capital, and the mansion of the Liu Mansion also changed its owner. At the moment of leaving the capital, Liu Boren lifted the curtain of the car and looked back, the setting sun was shining on the heavy The solid city wall, beyond the city wall, he seemed to see the scarlet palace wall, and saw the tall young man standing tall.

Liu Boren murmured to himself in a low voice: "That guy entered the Ministry of Internal Affairs, why should I help the old man. In the past few years, but this young man is helping the old man gain a foothold in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The young man is awesome."

As the sun sets, it is dyed a reddish color.

And tomorrow, the sun will rise.
