"What? You said that Guo Luoluo promised to be promoted and become a regular?"

In Zhongcui Palace, Concubine Jing was stunned and stared at the maid who came to report the news in disbelief.

"Master! It's true! When the servant went to the imperial dining room to get some snacks, the little Wu Zi from Yikun Palace told the servant!" The maid who reported the letter hurriedly said, "The emperor also rewarded Guo Luoluo with many things. Empress Yipin is also very happy, she rewarded Yikun Palace with a month's worth of money!"

Concubine Jing smiled on her face, but she was not feeling well in her heart.

In his Zhongcui Palace, he was reprimanded by confinement, but in Yikun Palace, Guo Luoluo promised to transform himself into a promotion and get a reward!

She was very contradictory in her heart, and the expression on her face was naturally indifferent, indicating that Madam Cheng had given the palace maid a bounty to send away, and then nagged: "What is Guo Luoluo often blowing about? What about the fifth elder brother?" It's not over yet, and the emperor actually gave her a promotion? Could it be for the sake of Concubine Yi?"

"Master, could it have something to do with Guo Luoluo's going to the Qing Palace before?" Mother Cheng thought for a while, and couldn't help but ask.

Concubine Jing was taken aback for a moment, then her complexion became gloomy, and she secretly regretted it.

"Master, I think this servant feels that this Guo Luoluo is always self-willed, and staying in our Zhongcui Palace is also a burden. No matter how beautiful he is, he doesn't need it, and he doesn't need it. It's better to go to Yibi's side. If it is not used, Yibi will inevitably get the name of jealousy, if it is used, it will be sisters fighting among themselves, and this Yikun Palace will be something to watch in the future!" The big palace maid Jinshu said with a smile beside her.

Concubine Jing burst out laughing, and a smile flashed in her eyes. She looked up and down the brocade book with righteous words: "Look at your mouth, how clever and eloquent it is!"

Like Concubine Jing, there was Lady An Gui who lived in the side hall. She walked back and forth several times, staring bitterly at the maid Tang Ye who was kneeling in front of her and trembling: "Didn't you say this Does Guo Luoluo always go to the emperor desperately thinking of crooked ideas?"

Why has it become a promotion now!

If the concubine Jing had reacted, then the person who sued him might be even worse than Mrs. Ma Jia... Thinking of Mrs. Ma Jia, who had to be guarded by two nuns in such a cold day, kneeling in the Buddhist hall every morning I copied the scriptures in my home, and went back in the afternoon to learn the rules.

In the name of learning the rules, Mrs. Ma Jia lost a lot of weight, and Mrs. An almost couldn't recognize this sallow-skinned, haggard and tired woman who was reserved and arrogant before. Concubine Rong!

Mrs. An shuddered at the thought of this - who said that Concubine Jing has a lenient and gentle temper, and that a lenient and gentle temper can kill a palace maid in front of the palace's face, and make people kneel all day in winter? ?

Tang Ye knelt on the ground and cried, "Slave, I don't know! This Guo Luoluo always says weird things like hysteria. I'm afraid that if I go to Qianqing Palace, I will cause trouble to Zhongcui Palace." Tell the little master about you!"

Ever since Sweet Beet was killed with a cane because of her own complaint, Tang Ye herself suffered a lot of shadows, she was so frightened that she couldn't eat, sleep or sleep, not to mention that no maid in the entire Zhongcui Palace was willing to walk with her.

She also suffered a lot.

"What should I do?" Mrs. An didn't care about Tang Ye, and hurriedly walked back and forth in the second room!

"Little master..." Qing Mi couldn't help shouting worriedly from the side.

Ever since the young master was demoted because of Guo Luoluo's constant presence, Qing Ai's life as a personal palace maid has naturally become sad.The young master doesn't like Guo Luoluo's constant presence, so it's only natural to want to use her wrongdoings to please my concubine Jing!

Just looking at Mrs. An's terrified appearance, Qing Ai's heart is full of worry: "Now that things have come to an end, my lord, why don't you go to the main hall to admit your mistakes?"

"Admit your mistake!?" An Guiren's voice changed sharply.

Qing Ai was frightened by An Guiren's attitude, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to admit her mistake.After thinking for a long time, Mrs. An gave a wry smile, and she helped Qing Ai to stand up: "This young master is wrong, instead of waiting for someone to come to your concubine, it is better to ask for your sins yourself! Qing Ai, you are right ! It’s all because I think too much, after all, I’m just a little nobleman now, so what if I don’t admit my mistake?”

As soon as she lowered her head in misery, a tear fell down and wet her clothes.Ignoring Tang Ye who was still kneeling on the ground, An Gui hurriedly walked towards the main hall with a green mist.

……

The heavy snow fell for seven days before it gradually stopped.The entire capital city was shrouded in a vast expanse of white snow, as if there was only one color left in the world.The people in the capital were lucky, and with the support of the imperial court, the death toll was still under control. However, outside Zhili, Shengjing, Heilongjiang and other places, the emergency reports mentioned that there were many disasters caused by snow, and people died of freezing and starvation. The number of people is getting bigger and bigger like a snowball.

The prepared materials were continuously transported to various places. Even so, there were rumors of mischief in many places. Some people turned into bandits and robbed their homes to make a living. Some people even tried to take the opportunity to rebel under the banner of the third prince Zhu.

Kangxi felt overwhelmed for a while, so he first sent Labu, Prince Heshuojian, to guard the northwest, and then ordered General Heshuokang, Prince Jieshu, to lead the forwards to join Guo Ji, Hushiba, and [-] armored soldiers. Leading two soldiers from Xiaoqi, one thousand soldiers from Wula and Ningguta each went to suppress the rebellion.

On the other hand, Kangxi issued several imperial edicts in the Qianqing Palace, urgently ordering Zhili and Jiangnan, those unscrupulous shops that hoarded grain for profit and tried to drive up grain prices were all closed and held accountable.

Many imperial merchants were also deprived of their qualifications as imperial merchants, not to mention those officials who worked for tigers and came up with various ideas behind their backs were also demoted and sent to prison.Quite a number of officials were hard-working and dedicated to the people, and the censor jumped up and down frequently calling for grievances, but they were slapped on the face by the evidence thrown in front of them!The ministers of the court immediately learned of this situation, and each of them felt a chill in their hearts. They realized that the emperor might have other people to investigate strictly, so the atmosphere immediately became serious, and they worked a lot more diligently.

After several crackdowns, the politics were cleared up, and those who were willing to be thieves were very few after all, and the two princes who put down the rebellion soon returned triumphantly.

After a few more days, the snow has cleared, and it is almost the New Year's day.

Although no official decree can be issued after the pen and seal are sealed, and no courtiers with strong eyes are willing to disturb the emperor for the New Year at this time, the number of political affairs that need to be dealt with has dropped sharply.However, Kangxi continued to summon from morning to night for several days in a row. Most of the people summoned were local officials who had returned to Beijing to learn about the post-disaster reconstruction situation in various places.

It wasn't until Concubine Zhao couldn't wait, and sent someone to invite him three or four times, that Kangxi took Liang Jiugong to Jingren Palace to discuss the arrangements for the New Year with Concubine Zhao.

After chatting for a short time, Concubine Zhao casually talked about Concubine Jing, Mrs. An and Guo Luoluo's constant presence.

"Your majesty doesn't know, but this respectful concubine asked Mrs. An to go to Yikun Palace to apologize to Guo Luoluo Changzai. It seems that Mrs. An did something to kill the palace maid." Concubine Zhao shook her head and sighed, "Besides, as a concubine My master asked the honorable young master to apologize to the regular young master, what was going on in her mind?"

Speaking of this, Concubine Zhao glanced at the emperor angrily, she had said that Concubine Jing was a no-brainer, but the Emperor still believed that Concubine Jing was a benevolent character.

Kangxi was noncommittal.

"I feel that Concubine Jing didn't do anything wrong. Knowing that her little master was imprisoned, she not only refused to dissuade her but also helped her out to report the news. Besides, this is not the first time. I remember that it was the maid who reported to Concubine Yi last time. , it can be seen that Chang Zai Guo is as dishonest as Guo Luoluo."

Concubine Zhao was taken aback, she thought that the emperor's promotion of Guo Luoluo's position must be because he had a good impression of him, but what she said meant to protect the respected concubine.

"If you don't mention this matter, there will be concubine Yi under his control, and Guo Luoluo can't make any trouble." Kangxi shook his head—besides, he has secret guards watching him.

"It's just that this year's Chinese New Year in the palace, I mean the palace banquet should be withdrawn." Kangxi said softly, "You remember to go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning earlier to watch a play with the two empress dowagers and talk to each other. Take it for fun."

"The concubine understands the meaning of the emperor!" Concubine Zhao nodded, "This is because there are no palace banquets in this palace. It is obviously quite deserted during the Chinese New Year. I am afraid that the younger sisters will be very lonely in the palace? Can you arrange where to be?" Arrange a scene in the palace for the younger sisters to watch and solve the problem?"

Kangxi pondered for a moment: "What you said is also reasonable. How about it, I will allow you to watch a small show in my palace during the days from New Year's Eve to the third day of the Lunar New Year, so that everyone can relax. The two empress dowagers, you can Arranging until the Lantern Festival will make the two empress dowagers lively!"

"Yes! The concubine understands!"

After Kangxi left, Concubine Zhao took out the gift list sent to various places to have a look, and subtracted a part as appropriate, and at the same time ordered Gui Zhi to pass the news to all the concubines, and let them gather in Yikun Palace.

After hearing Concubine Zhao's arrangement, all the concubines were unavoidably disappointed.Especially concubines who have no status, promises and Changzai, if they sing in the Palace of Compassion or Shufangzhai, it has nothing to do with them, and they are not even qualified to participate in the banquet.

The nobles also had wry smiles on their faces, although they could go up and down in the light of the main concubine.But like in the Compassionate Ning Palace, there might not even be a place to sit, there are always places to stand for half a day, if you go to Shufangzhai, you can sit and chat comfortably for half a day.

It's a pity that if the relationship with the lord is not good, and the lord has the idea of ​​rubbing you, it's okay to go to the Palace of Compassion and Let you stand and wait, and go to Shufangzhai to let you stay in the palace.

"Brothers, princesses, you have to go to the Palace of Compassion and Peace on those days when the emperor ordered you to go! Don't forget!" Concubine Zhao was worried, and told her again, "Especially Concubine Hui, the fourth princess is young and Bu Guiren's first child, please give me some advice."

"Concubine understands, your master can rest assured." Concubine Hui replied calmly and gently.Ever since Concubine Jing moved away from her palace, Yanxi Palace has become a place where Concubine Hui can speak.

The fourth princess was raised by Concubine Hui as soon as she was born. She gave birth to a princess and was not favored by the cloth nobleman. Faced with the reality that she could raise her by herself but was taken away by Concubine Hui, she had no choice but to be arrogant. Serve Concubine Hui more honestly and docilely.

After all Concubine Hui didn't have a daughter, and she didn't have any bad intentions in holding the fourth princess so that Mrs. Bu's mother and daughter could not see each other. After bearing with it until now, Mrs. Bu got used to it.

Seeing concubine Hui's voice, nobleman Bu quickly followed Shen Shen and replied: "Yes, concubine knows."
