Brother Donggong

"My lord, my lord?" I was sure, and I saw Yang Chun smiling sweetly, stretching his arms and bending over, giving me the imperial decree in his hand, and he said, "My lord, after receiving the imperial decree, you will enter the palace with your servants." Thank you."

My mother became a noble concubine, and her annual salary immediately became [-], and she was also promoted in rank. If it was left outside, it would be able to stand up to the princes of the other side.As soon as she attains the Tao, me and the Cui family chickens and dogs will follow me to heaven.But since there is a way to ascend to heaven, it is natural to go to the palace to thank you.

Yang Chun said, he came to me with the decree to proclaim the decree, and Lu Zhi went to the Cui family mansion in Ranzhuang with the decree to proclaim the decree to my grandfather and uncle. They might come to Yongjing City tomorrow and still enter the palace.This is a special decree, they can enter the harem without being castrated.

I gave the imperial decree to Cucumber, and then asked Cucumber to bring out a plate of silver to Yang Chun. At first, Yang Chun put on airs and said, "The prince's reward is kindness, but slaves have to follow the rules." What "the prince rewards slaves" , This will break the life of the servant." He was still thinking about that, but I kicked him on the ass, and he obediently took the silver and returned to the palace to return to his life.

As soon as Yang Chun left, I went back to change into the court clothes, and brought the cucumber over, "Send someone to the Lingering Garden to call Cui Bicheng, and I will enter the palace with him."

Cucumber had a bitter face, "My lord, I'm afraid Young Master Biao won't be able to come."

"What's the matter? Don't tell me that he, Cui Suan, calculated bad debts all night, and his back hurts this morning, and he can't get up in bed?"

"No."

Cucumber put the brocade robe on me, I stretched out my hand, and he helped me fasten the belt around my neck.

I got a little hairy from him.

"what happened?"

"My lord." Cucumber pondered for a while before saying, "As soon as Boss Cui left the palace, he asked Yin Yuzheng of Shuntian Mansion to 'invite' him away. At that time, the slaves didn't know that it was Boss Cui's servant who was watching the gap and ran away. The letter reported to the palace said that Wang Liansheng from Jiangsu had paid for the murder, which really implicated Boss Cui in it.

The servant girl originally wanted to tell the prince immediately, but it was delayed when Yang Chun, the supervisor of ceremonies, came to deliver the decree.The empress was promoted to a noble concubine, such a great happy event, the slaves didn't want to tell the prince about it, but if they didn't, they felt that they were not at ease. "

I murmured, "So fast? The letter that Lao Cui only got yesterday was arrested by Yu Zheng early this morning. If we were a few hours late in doing the accounts, wouldn't Yu Zheng be caught?" Knocked on his head, "When did you become so cautious when talking to me?"

Cucumber straightened my collar and straightened my sleeves. He said with a smile, "This servant really cares about the prince and thinks of him. The prince must understand the painstaking efforts of this servant."

When I heard it, my body trembled, and the roots of my teeth almost made him sour.

Cucumber suddenly asked sternly again, "My lord, why don't I go to Shuntian Mansion and get Boss Cui out?"

I stretched out my arms, Cucumber fastened my belt, straightened it, and pulled out the Panlong Jade Pendant from the tray next to it in an orderly manner, and hung it on my belt.

Hearing Cucumber's question, I shook my head, "Leave him alone for now. Let's go into the palace and wait for me to ask about my mother before we talk about anything else. As long as my mother becomes a noble concubine, Cui Bicheng just wants to have dinner at Yu Zheng's place in Shuntian Mansion." It won't work."

Because she was wearing court clothes and rings, and she had to pay attention to her appearance when she went to the palace to thank her, so she could only sit in a sedan chair.

My big sedan was parked in the open space inside the middle gate of the palace. To go from the inner room, I had to go through the corridor and walk along the shore of the lake. There was no corridor over there, and it started to rain again. At this time, Xiao Lian was struggling An umbrella stood in front of me, like a shiitake mushroom in the misty and rainy mountains.

Xiao Lian stepped down a step, "My lord, let me take you there."

……

"it is good."

I don't know who Xiaolian is, I only know that he is from Semu.I used to have many thoughts, he might be the old third Yulan who came to destroy me, he is from Gaochang, he is an assassin, what's more, he is Ayila who went to the Great Light Palace of the Western Regions to learn martial arts since she was a child Brother Mo Que.

But... I don't know why, I always have a very vague idea.

It seems that what I thought before was wrong.

Xiaolian, it seems that no one is...

But no matter who he is, I always feel that he is not here to harm me.Since I bought him, since he has entered my house, we are a family.If there is anything that everyone can undertake together, otherwise, what is this so-called 'family'?

"Xiao Lian." As soon as I grabbed his hand, his hand was warm and dry, "I'm going to the palace now, when I come back, I have something to tell you."

……

"Okay." Xiao Lian put the umbrella on top of my head, "Then I'll ask Mrs. Feng to make some side dishes, and save them for the prince's supper. Eat the food at home to warm your stomach."

When I got into the big sedan chair and the curtains of the sedan chair were lowered, Xiao Lian just closed his umbrella, and the drizzle hit his cheeks, his eyes like glass beads were smiling, but he looked like a fox.

I entered the palace but didn't look at my father. I was so full of flattery that I didn't say a word.He sent Li Fang over and asked me to go directly to Shouchun Palace to find my mother.

When I arrived at Shouchun Palace, I found that it was much cleaner than I thought.

There is no playing and singing, no laughter, and no hula hula sound of mahjong.

My mother's palace is still the same, except that the windows are bright and clean, and they seem to be shining.

My mother let me in, and when I got to the inner hall, I hurriedly bowed and said, "Mother is very happy, my son is congratulating my mother. My son wishes my mother and father an affectionate love. Honey is mixed with oil, like glue, and I will add more to my son in the future." Big fat brother!

This noble concubine is like remarrying, you have finally made it through!Although you are not a concubine, your name can be written on the jade plate gold coupon!Not only do you have more annual salary, but also your status is higher, and there are more people who play mahjong with you, and more people give you dog legs. Even after you get married, your memorial tablet can be squeezed into the ancestral temple, and your coffin can follow me Dad is stationed in Wannian auspicious land! "

Snapped!A shoehorn was blowing towards my face in the wind, I bent down to hide quickly, and heard an 'ouch', I turned my face to look, followed by the cucumber behind me, holding the cheeks, knelt on the ground, smacking the bitter melon The tongue said, "The servant congratulates the imperial concubine and the empress, and wishes the empress to favor Yonglong!"

My mother is wiping mahjong tiles with a velvet cloth, which was a gift from my father.

The card is made of purple bamboo from the deep mountains of Guizhou, which is not sold in the market, and it cannot be obtained with any amount of money.This kind of purple bamboo is very rare, and it grows in the remote mountains and old forests where there is a lot of miasma.A piece of bamboo is as thick as a piece of nanmu, and it has a clear fragrance when used for anything, and it does not attract insects and ants.

This bamboo is an 'auspicious thing' sent by my father, who is the dog leg of the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou. I want to build a brand new scripture house for my father, so that my father can use it to comprehend the mystery. Bamboo, so my father had someone carefully carve a set of mahjong tiles for my mother to play with.

This set of mahjong tiles is larger than ordinary tiles, and the engraved side is inlaid with white Hetian jade, which is clear and beautiful. The tiles are still full in the hand, and my mother can't put it down.

My mother has a thin skin, she blushed a little when she saw her shoe hitting a cucumber.

She put down the mahjong tiles in her hand, and hurried over, "Cucumber is here, I'm sorry, I didn't see you when I smashed the shoes just now, I thought it was my son of a bitch!"

Cucumber hurriedly said, "The imperial concubine said this, but the servant's life is broken."

I quickly stood up straight, saving myself from getting tired, "I got cucumbers, and you will be harmed for 1000 years, and you are still alive! By the way, mother, what are you talking about! If I were a turtle son, then what are you and what is my father?" ?”

"Silly boy, don't talk nonsense!" My mother glared at me.

I looked around, and it was still the same as usual, there were not many people, there was a court lady making tea nearby, and other people, eunuchs, were sweeping the yard outside, but there were no visitors.

I wondered, "Mother, you have been promoted all of a sudden, I thought this place is full of guests and friends! Those concubine Yun, Concubine Li, Concubine Wang, Concubine Li and the like have not come to come to you. She is a sister." ?

I remember that they always carried the sedan chair and played the trumpet, just to make fun.Now that such a shining imperial concubine suddenly appeared in front of my eyes, why couldn't they see it? "

My mother said, "Your father has sent a message. Let me be quiet and quiet today. When your grandfather and uncle enter Yongjing City tomorrow, it will be lively. The emperor also enjoyed a three-day drama, saying that it was Yongjing City. The best Kunqu opera troupe sings "The Peony Pavilion", or some new "Shuimoqiang", the tuner from Kunshan, the most popular actor. They sang on the Shuijingtai in the harem for three days in a row."

I wondered, "Hey, mother, when did you become more refined and like to listen to Kunqu Opera? I remember that you like to listen to Caohe Bangzi in Ranzhuang?"

"How do I know what Kunqu opera is? It's babbling, and I can fall asleep just listening to it. It's what your father meant. Tomorrow, your father will let the concubine's family, Mr. Du Ge, and Young Master Du, come and talk about the family. People get together. I heard that Mr. Du Ge is from Kunshan, and he loves to listen to Kunqu Opera."

I rolled up my sleeves and replied, "Oh."

Tell Du Hu and the others to come, what does my father want to do?

My mother asked me to sit down, and there were fragrant tea and snacks on the table. I saw that they were red bean meringue cakes. They were snacks from Ranzhuang. My mother liked to eat them since she was a child, and so did I.

Last night, Lao Cui and I checked the bills all night. This morning, before Ansheng could get any better, he took the order and entered the palace. He didn't care about drinking a sip of water, and didn't care about eating a bite of food. It also sings empty city plan!

I twisted a puff pastry and stuffed it into my mouth, while my mother said, "Eat slowly, don't choke! You must be reincarnated from starvation, why don't you learn from Bizi? He is better than you." But you are more refined, oh, by the way, speaking of Bizi, where is he?"

Me, "He checked the accounts last night and was tired. He was sleeping at home today. I have already sent someone to urge him, and he may come in after a while. Mom, I haven't asked you yet. What's wrong with you? How did it happen?" Missed Concubine Xiang?

My good fellow, after three days of farewell, I will look at you with admiration. Within a year, you have changed from a young female official in the harem to a noble concubine.If my uncle had your skills, it would not be impossible for him to join the cabinet.how did you do it "

My mother rolled her eyes, "I'm a woman, what do I know? This is what your father meant, and he was also run on by some people, so he had to do this."

I blinked my eyes, but I didn't understand. "What, what? My father was run on by someone? This is so strange, it is even stranger than when I heard that he was struck by lightning! Who was he run on by? But why did he make you a noble concubine as soon as he was run on? This is When I met my mother-in-law and called me sister-in-law, where did I follow?"

My mother sighed, "Don't ask about these things. You don't understand many things. Even if you ask, your father won't let me say it. Anyway, it's always a good thing to be a noble concubine. In the future, if you get more money, you won't let me tell you." So that you can donate a bigger official to your uncle."

Me, "With Cui Bicheng's net worth, can you use your mother's money to donate to Uncle Cui Guo? Boss Cui must have his own plans if he doesn't use money to donate to Uncle Cui Guo. We can't control it."

My mother, "Since that's the case, then I will save my money for you to marry a wife. Oh, by the way, Chengzi, you are not too young. When your mother was your age, you would go to the imperial dining room to steal soy sauce." You should think about this important event in your life."

I laughed, "I'm looking. I must marry a daughter-in-law who is one in a million for the imperial concubine."

My mother went to Zhang Luofan, and I sat here with her, scratching my hair, trying to make sense of what she said.

My mother is confused, but my father is not.He suddenly promoted my mother to the position of noble concubine, what exactly did he want to do?My mother said that someone ran on him, who ran on him, what did he use to run on him, and why did he run on him?

I don't even know the reason for this.

But... the strange thing is, my mother actually knew.

It's just that she didn't say anything.

What happened? ?

I scratched my hair again, thinking that my temples hurt.

However, the only thing that is certain is that it doesn't seem like a bad thing for my mother to be a noble concubine, so things will be much easier for Old Cui.

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard my mother's cheerful voice outside, "Bizi is here, yo, look at your sallow face, sorry to see you, you haven't eaten yet. I asked the imperial dining room to prepare steamed meat and stewed fish in an iron pot. Let you and Chengzi have a good drink."

As soon as I raised my eyes, Cui Bicheng was tortured like a hanged ghost, his face was pale, I pointed at him and laughed, and when he looked at me, he gave me a glare.

Me, "Brother, what's wrong with you? Yu Zhengyu's tea doesn't taste good?"

Cui Bicheng curled his lips, "It's the authentic Hangzhou Shifeng Longjing, but it's just the Longjing from the next year."

Me, "Come on, he is the governor of Shuntian Mansion, and his parents are the most difficult official in the entire Dazheng Dynasty. Anyone who comes out of any yamen gate in Yongjing City can overwhelm him. How much oil and water can he have? Give you a drink of Longjing It's already too much for you."

Cui Bicheng, "I know that he is a well-known and upright official. Not only is he famous, but he dares to resist. The royal relatives and relatives treat him equally. He is especially good at investigating cases. He has been sentenced for more than ten years. He has skills, but he just has nothing to do with me."

"how?"

"He asked about everything about Jiangsu, but I didn't say anything. The little eunuch who was catching up with your palace asked me to enter the palace, so I came here."

As Cui Bicheng said, his whole body paralyzed, he threw himself onto the long soft chair, and sighed in the posture of a dog chewing mud, "Soft couch, I miss my brother to death."

Me, "You didn't say anything? No excuses?"

After waiting for a while, no one said anything.

"Hey, why don't you talk?"

snoring~~~~~~~~~~~

I turned my face away, dare to say, this brother fell asleep.
