Ruan Yunqing endured the bitterness in her heart and came to the main hall gate.

Five days later, it will be the day when Emperor Hongyou goes to Nanshan to escape the summer heat. Before that, he has to explain clearly the affairs in the palace, so that he can feel at ease and go to Nanshan with Song Bin.

Let Lvhuai pass on the message early in the morning. At this time, it is almost at Sizheng, and there is already a crowd of people standing outside the main hall door. All the maids in Duanhua Palace, except those who are on duty in front of Song Ren, They were all waiting in the courtyard in front of the main hall, waiting for Ruan Yunqing to come over.

As soon as Ruan Yunqing entered the main hall, everyone saluted, "Eunuch Ruan!"

Ruan Yunqing stood on the stone steps, and after returning the gift, asked Lu Huai to take the roster and count the number of people.

Everyone couldn't help being startled, even Mo Zhu and Lv Huai were startled, but they hadn't seen each other all morning, Ruan Yunqing seemed to have been reborn, he calmly returned the courtesy, which was very different from the cautious and polite way before, at this moment, Ruan Yunqing was still polite Zhou Quan was gentle and courteous to them, but the expression on his face and the way he acted carried a domineering and majestic style that he had never seen before, which made people feel timid and added to them for no reason. Three points of awe.

Lvhuai looked left and right, and didn't know what happened to Ruan Yunqing, why did she go to the prince's bedroom, it was like a different person.He was puzzled and couldn't help but glanced again.

Ruan Yunqing looked back at him, seeing that he was not moving, she asked softly, "Why don't you go?"

Lv Huai shrank his neck in fright at just one glance, he agreed, quickly took the roster, went down to look at it one by one, his heart was throbbing, and he couldn't stop muttering: How can this look, this look, be different from the prince's? His Majesty's look.It's scary, it's really scary.

Lvhuai sang loudly, and the palace people who came also clicked their heads. After a while, Lvhuai came back and reported: "Except for Ni Rui, Qian Fu, Sun Shou and other eight deacons and eunuchs who did not come, the rest of them have waited. It's all here."

Ruan Yunqing nodded, he let Lvhuai back down, his face was already icy cold.Ruan Yunqing grimaced, and shouted loudly to the people below the high platform: "There are eight people who haven't arrived yet, let's wait for a while."

Even though it was a red sun and the heat was overwhelming, the crowd still shuddered at Ruan Yunqing's words. They peeked up the steps, Ruan Yunqing's face was sinking like water, and the previous amiable look had long since disappeared.

He has been in Duanhua Palace for three months, he has always been gentle and kind, and he also speaks in a soft voice when speaking with others. Even if someone deliberately made things difficult, Ruan Yunqing has always persuaded others with reason, and has never lost his temper with anyone.Everyone took it for granted that Ruan Yunqing had a gentle temperament and was a no-brainer.But when they saw it today, everyone suddenly realized that Ruan Yunqing had no temper, they hadn't seen it, it was just because there was nothing that made him angry.

I also blame Ruan Yunqing for being so angry today, she finally understood her own feelings, but this feeling came so bitterly, before she could connect with her lover, she was sentenced to death in Ruan Yunqing's place. , It is also doomed to be powerless.

Song Ren and Hong Luan played a good show, and they deceived Ruan Yunqing into believing that it was true. No matter how rational and reasonable Ruan Yunqing was, he couldn't resist such tossing.His heart was completely broken, and when he came out of Song Yan, his heart was as cold as a fire, and now he saw the palace that he had rectified for three months, and there were still people who dared to be so presumptuous. Well, I couldn't help getting angry at this time.

Luhuai and the others saw it, and their hearts beat.We all know that Ruan Yunqing is really annoyed today, if Ni Rui and the others don't come here in time, today's quarrel is probably unavoidable.

Ni Rui, Qian Fu and the others were all transferred from the Queen Mother's Palace to Duanhua Palace when the Queen Mother was alive.At that time the prince had just turned six years old, when he first left the empress dowager and first arrived in Duanhua Palace, the empress dowager feared that he would not have capable servants to take care of him, so she picked a few confidantes from her side.

These people are the queen mother's confidantes, even Song Ren respects them and dare not scold them lightly. After so many years of domineering and bullying others, in this Duanhua Palace, they have become the ancestors of No. [-].

When Ruan Yunqing first came to Duanhua Palace, Ni Rui had already issued a strict order. He made all the eunuchs and maids in the palace hug together, refused to obey Ruan Yunqing's control, and secretly put Ruan Yunqing in a lot of trouble.It's all thanks to Ruan Yunqing's cleverness and cleverness, after suffering two losses, she could see the clues, and Mo Zhu suggested something from the side, so they didn't follow their way.

Ni Rui and the others were arrogant and domineering, and the servants of Duanhua Palace had to watch their faces every day, and they had already complained in their hearts.Ruan Yunqing is fair, rewards and punishments are clear, and he is very decent. In just a few months, he has rectified the affairs of the Duanhua Palace. , reassigned to other people in the palace, etc.

Just based on this point, it is enough for everyone to look at Ruan Yunqing differently, not to mention that he defeated them one by one, and did what he liked, which gave a lot of sweetness and benefits to the people in the palace.

On the one hand, there is the ferocious Ni Rui and the others, and on the other hand, the new steward who handles things fairly and is clear about rewards and punishments. People will naturally be able to tell which side they will be in their hearts.Although the palace people are all slaves, it's nothing more than serving the members of the royal family on weekdays. They didn't expect to find a living ancestor for themselves in private.

In just three months, the wind changed in Duanhua Palace. Except for Qian Fu, Sun Shou and Ni Rui's confidantes, the whole palace was still stubborn, and everyone else turned to Ruan Yunqing's side. No matter how much Ni Rui and the others yelled, they would no longer listen to his orders.

Ni Rui became more and more annoyed, and couldn't motivate the crowd, only Qian Fu, Sun Shou and other minions were left by his side, so it was inevitable that he was alone.

This Ni Rui has always been used to it, and now that Ruan Yunqing, a young boy, has become the chief eunuch in the palace, how can he be convinced in his heart, first he can mobilize everyone to fight against Ruan Yunqing, and then he sees those servants The court ladies gradually turned against each other, and they no longer treated him as before, so he obeyed his words, his lungs were already swollen with anger, his ribs hurt, and he wished to beat Ruan Yunqing fat and throw him out of Duanhua Palace.

The few of them have always been treated courteously by Song Bin, but they have never been so angry. They came to Song Bin together and spoke up, saying that Ruan Yunqing was young and incompetent, and that the palace was being managed by him in a disorderly and chaotic mess.

This is what they deserve to die. Song Ru was devoted to Ruan Yunqing. If someone spoke ill of him, it would be like scolding him face to face.Ni Rui and the others went in without knowing it. When Hong Luan came, they all thought that Song Bin had already disliked Ruan Yunqing, and there was no one in the palace to support him.They slandered Song Rui several times, but Song Ru did not listen to them at all. Instead, they felt disgusted with Ni Rui and the others and scolded them so that they would avoid troubles and work with peace of mind.

Ni Rui and the others had never been scolded before, and when Song Ru scolded them, their old faces couldn't bear it.The few people were furious, and all their anger was blamed on Ruan Yunqing. They planned all day long, waiting for the right opportunity to settle a settlement with Ruan Yunqing.

Today when Lvhuai came to deliver a message, Ni Rui scolded Lvhuai. Lvhuai was full of grievances, but dared not speak back. He left the courtyard where Ni Rui lived, and heard him scolding endlessly behind his back.

After Lvhuai left, Ni Rui went to Qian Fu, Sun Shou and others to discuss how to deal with Ruan Yunqing.Today's opportunity is great, they want to kill Ruan Yunqing's vigor in front of the servants in the palace, so that these servants who are playing with the wind will open their eyes and see who is the master of the palace.

The eight of them all came from the Empress Dowager's Palace. They have colluded with each other for many years and have long regarded Duanhua Palace as their own backyard.They joined together to control the big and small affairs of Duanhua Palace, from the purchase of things to the promotion of the servants, etc., all of which have been controlled by them for so many years.

These eight people have long since caught red eyes, and they have forgotten everything except money in their eyes.As soon as Ruan Yunqing came, he took over the affairs of the palace. The secret money-making business of Ni Rui and the others all cut off Ruan Yunqing's money. How could the eight of them not hold grudges and wait for the opportunity to retaliate.

When several people heard Ni Rui's strategy, they all agreed and applauded.Discussing in a hurry, they deliberately postponed it again and again. It was originally scheduled to be at Si o'clock, but they delayed it until noon, and then walked unsteadily to the main hall with square steps.

There was no sound in the courtyard, everyone waited for an hour, the sun was high in the sky, it was June weather, everyone was dizzy from the sun, they couldn't stop cursing in their hearts, scolding Ni Rui was very harmful.

Ruan Yunqing stood alone on the steps, his temples were wet with sweat, his back was straight, standing on the high platform, looking down the platform with cold eyes.

Ruan Yunqing was not angry and pretentious, and none of the people dared to complain, they all stood there in good order, waiting for Ni Rui and others to come over.

Mo Zhu's head was covered with sweat, he wiped his face with a handkerchief, walked to Ruan Yunqing's side, and whispered: "I'll send someone to call again, if you wait like this, they probably won't come."

Ruan Yunqing said coldly, "No need."

Mo Zhu glanced at him, and couldn't help but sighed, if she wasn't afraid of the prince's distress, she wouldn't mind this nosy business.Song Ju told her ten thousand times, telling Mo Zhu to watch over Ruan Yunqing and not to make him work too hard.Originally thought that Ruan Yunqing was just a half-grown child, how much older he was, no matter how old he was, he would be able to shock him.Unexpectedly, this child not only has a stubborn temper, but also has enough momentum now, what he said just now scared Mo Zhu so much that he didn't dare to argue, and obediently retreated to the audience.

Luhuai leaned forward and asked how Mo Zhu was doing.Mo Zhu shook his head, and said bitterly: "This Ni Rui is too hateful, relying on being the entourage sent by the queen mother, they have been domineering and bullying for so many years, and have gained so many benefits in private, they Not satisfied yet. The Crown Prince thinks of the Empress Dowager’s face and refuses to pursue it, which is already giving them a big face. Who would have thought that instead of thinking of the Crown Prince’s grace, these people will become more arrogant and complacent! No wonder Yun Qing is angry , even I was so angry."

Lu Huai also shook his head, and sighed: "Ni Rui has always had his nostrils upturned, how could he be under the control of a child, it would be better if he didn't come, if he came, Yun Qing would definitely not be able to fight them."

Afraid that Ruan Yunqing would hear it, Mo Zhu slapped Luhuai on the back of the head, and said angrily, "Can't you just say something nice, why are you always tearing things apart?"

Lv Huai was full of grievances, and curled her lips and shouted: "I'm telling the truth, can't I do it? Open your eyes and look, Yun Qing is not as tall as a stool, how can you beat Ni Rui and the others? If nothing else, it's Ni Rui With that shameless attitude, Yun Qing is definitely no match!"

Mo Zhu couldn't laugh or cry, and he couldn't help feeling worried. Although Lu Huai's words were rough, they were not unreasonable. After all, Ruan Yunqing was still young, his experience was inexperienced, and his face was thin. When he thought of confronting those eight treacherous people, Mo Zhu couldn't help but raise his heart.

After waiting for a while, there was a sound of chaotic footsteps in the aisle. When everyone looked at the aisle, they couldn't help being surprised.

I saw Ni Rui, Qian Fu and the others staggered from drinking, reeking of alcohol, their clothes were disheveled, their robes were not fastened, and they walked crookedly towards the main hall with their lapels ripped.

Ni Rui was cursing and swearing. He came to the middle of the patio, glanced at the high platform, pointed at Ruan Yunqing's nose and cursed: "It's so hot, why don't you just stay indoors and ask grandpas to come?"
