    After that, there were occasional rumors that Manager Xiao Tong and the commander of the guards were getting along. The two were talking and laughing, and behaved intimately.  Read the full text of the latest chapter

    People in the palace love to gossip. Not only the maids talk behind their backs, but even the eunuchs also have this habit.  Most of the news about the Forbidden City was spread from the mouths of these people. Although it was explicitly prohibited, they could not hold back the leisurely days in the palace. Once the quiet days were too long, they would try to find some entertainment.  Talking about him is the most cost-effective thing. When you have nothing to do with your mouth, other than eating, you just amuse me.

    Songyin was pretty big-hearted, so she ignored all this and continued to do her errands diligently.  However, she and Rong Shi behaved intimately. After thinking about it, she probably caught someone else's eye when he showed her the wound.  It is actually very bad to have such rumors in the palace. This is a place where everything must be kept clean. I have heard of palace maids and eunuchs eating in pairs before. Since the emperor came to power, this kind of thing has been completely eliminated. If there are rumors, check them out.  If you die, you will be killed with a stick.

    She was a little worried, fearing that the emperor would ask her for questions, so she would stay away from Rong Shi again when she saw him.  He called her several times, but she pretended not to hear.  Later, he seemed to be discouraged and didn't say a word when they met her. He huffed and put his hands on his hips, watching her go away.

    In fact, she also felt guilty. After all, he didn't offend her, and she didn't take it to heart after making a fuss that day. In the end, it was for his own good, so that Prince Yu wouldn't make any demands later, which would make it difficult for him to prevaricate.  But sometimes when I think about it carefully, that prince is quite interesting. The feelings are usually mutual. If she can win over Rong Shi, how come the emperor can't win over her through Rong Shi?  He is so sure because he has the flag of the Tong family in his hand.  If you can't make people willingly sacrifice their lives for you, can you survive for a long time only by threats?  Let her seize the opportunity and switch sides without anyone else inciting her to rebel.

    Her mother was still as steady as a rock, "This is good, far away, not too hot. Remember, not only Master Six is ??watching, but the Emperor is also watching!"

    Songyin responded, "Amma, do you think the two of them are still competing?"

    Shu Ming's pipe pot was knocked on the stool leg, "This kind of overt and covert fighting will not stop until we fight to the death? So we have to be neutral. We will do a little bit of what the prince tells us, and a little bit of what the emperor tells us. Both sides are fawning, and both sides are fawning.  It would be best if you don¡¯t let go.¡±

    Speaking of the emperor¡¯s ascension to the throne, it should be regarded as a mistake.  It is said that before his death, the late emperor announced that three important ministers had come in, ready to prepare an edict to pass on the throne at any time.  The princes were not allowed to enter the palace without an order. They all knelt in the front hall behind a yellow curtain to listen.  The late emperor did not establish a prince when he was still alive, and he probably was still attached to the world before his death. He never moved Chrysostom and did not speak until he was really desperate. At that time, he could not even make a sound.  Anyway, what she heard was the rumor that the late emperor appointed the new emperor Fu Bi, a minister who praised Xiang's government affairs. When it came time to appoint a successor emperor, he couldn't even come up with a breath. Heir, heir, heir took a long time.  The ministers and ministers listened closely to his lips, but they could not hear the reason. The late emperor passed away after his last heir, so "heir" became "four", and the throne passed to the hands of the current emperor.  The Queen Mother's dissatisfaction also stemmed from this. When the late emperor was still alive, she had agreed with her that Yan Sui would become the great ruler in the future, but she did not expect that the result would be like this.  Although both of them were born to her, she had never liked the emperor. A shaman lady once calculated for her that if the emperor had a conflict with her, he would be killed in the long run.  Therefore, the emperor was cared for by nannies from an early age, and like the sons of concubines, he spent his youth in Qiandong Wusuo.  Ten fingers are not the same length when stretched out, and it is normal for parents to be partial.  But it is rare in the world for someone like the Queen Mother to overthrow one person and support another.

    Songyin filled another pot of cigarettes for Ama and thought about the second room, "How are Chang Ge and Bie Hong doing now?"

    Shu Ming shook his head and said, "Forget it, my uncle is also a bastard. He always talks about how good his aunt is. [ ] Go and see, just like this family style, dad is bad, mom is bad, the whole family is bad, and the nephew is like my uncle. He is out of control. Chang.  Ge's daughter-in-law hid in her parents' house and refused to come back. The whole family tried to reason with the big matchmaker, and in the end they beat the matchmaker."

    Songyin was stunned, "Isn't the matchmaker Biehong's uncle?"

    "Yes." Shu Ming said, "That stupid father smashed up my sister's house and beat up Shunfu and his wife. Shunfu came to your second uncle crying and said he had never seen such an unreasonable family.  .¡±

    Songyin shook his head and was amazed. Sure enough, there are all kinds of people in this world, and even a god can't understand that idea.

    Shu Ming summed it up with one sentence, "A daughter must carefully consider her husband's marriage, and a son must not rush into marrying a wife. It is not good to bring harm to one's own family when raising a son, and it is not good to bring harm to other people's families when raising a daughter."

    Songyin just smiled, her mother was getting old and she liked to talk about these old mother's children all day long.  She stood up and said: "Guang Chusi is going to take stock of the treasury in the next two days. I guess I will go to the guards of Qianqing Palace to get the key. I want you to open the treasury together with the Ministry of Revenue and the Zongren Mansion. Go back tomorrow and don't drink."  , and don¡¯t play mahjong, I have something important to do.¡±

      The inventory of Guang Chu Division is extremely strict, and the most important department in the Ministry of Internal Affairs is Guang Chu Division.  This department is regarded as the emperor's personal warehouse, divided into six warehouses, storing gold, silver, pearls, jade, coral, agate and various precious stones. It is the most tightly guarded in the palace.  Two shifts are arranged every day, with 25 people in each shift taking turns day and night. The Ministry of Internal Affairs is required to keep statistics on the income and cashiers every month, and no carelessness is allowed.  Shu Ming knew how powerful he was, and said with a smile: "Your mother has been a servant all her life, and you still need some advice? Just handle your own affairs, and leave me alone."

    Songyin smiled and planned to go to the mounting work in the Royal Book Office. As soon as he stepped out of the door, Su La came to Qian'er and replied, "Mr. Guo of Zhongcui Palace sent someone to ask for the young manager. Come and take a look."  Bar!"

    "Master Guo is the one who doesn't want to sleep with her. Although she has a bit of a weird temper, she is very suitable for the emperor.  After that, he flipped the sign again and was promoted to a noble person. Now he is regarded as a holy family, and the monthly salary and expenses have been raised.

    "Because Songyin is a woman, the masters and the eunuchs can't talk to each other, so they prefer to go to her directly, which makes her, the lieutenant, like a broken man.  She sighed, "I'm going to wear out a pair of thousand layer bottoms this month Have you asked, what's the matter?"

    Sulla said: "I didn't say who came, I just said that the young steward has gone."

    Since she had to go when called, she told her subordinates and went straight to Zhongcui Palace.

    Guo Gui has a low status and can only live in the side hall, but she doesn't care. People with no enterprising spirit can live and work in peace wherever they go.  Songyin walked in and knelt down, "Young Master, is there something wrong with me?"

    Guo Guiren was very kind to her because of her success in persuading her last time. When he saw her, he invited her in and arranged for her to sit in the rose chair.  Songyin watched her send her close person to the door to look out for the wind. He didn't know what she was planning, but she actually made her unable to sit still.  She came over and stood next to her, and said hesitantly: "Master Xiao Tong, I haven't had my period in two months."

    Songyin was shocked, which meant that nine times out of ten, he was in luck.

    "Is there any doctor Xuan?"

    Guo Guiren shook his head, "My grandma said I can't announce it. If I'm afraid of someone causing trouble, I'd better go to Master Xiao Tong for advice first."

    Songyin knows their concerns. Children are too valuable now.  She said: "I know it well, little master, don't worry. But can you be sure? If so, I will go back to the emperor right now."

    Guo Guiren rubbed the corner of his clothes and said, "I've never been pregnant before, so I can't tell for sure. It's just that my breasts are so swollen that I always feel nauseous when eating."

    Songyin is a layman and knows nothing about it.  No matter what, just treat it as it is, and it¡¯s always right to report back first.

    She comforted her, "Don't worry, little master. Eat and drink well, and don't treat yourself badly. I'll pass the news to the emperor and ask Long Live Lord to make a decision."

    Guo Guiren sent her out, and she said, "Stay here." He deliberately raised his voice to call the eunuch in her palace, "These screens are all infested with midges. No wonder the young mistress couldn't sleep well at night. Please go to the building office to get a fine gauze."  , the window drawers are heavily glued. The weather is hot, smoke a stick to drive away insects before going to bed, don't be lazy." This was meant for the other concubines in the palace. As expected, people who heard the news moved around at each door and retreated one after another.  into the palace.

    After Songyin came out of Zhongcui Palace, she went to the East Long Street, entered the Jinghe Gate and entered the Qianqing Palace. She asked someone to send a message to the emperor. The little eunuch blinked and stuck out his tongue, "Wait a moment, the Long Live Lord is furiously scolding Tan Zhangyin."  ." When asked why, the little eunuch was vague and couldn't tell.

    She stood under His Majesty Dan and turned to look towards Qianqing Palace. The palace was too deep and she couldn't hear what was said inside.  The emperor has his own confidants, but who he trusts more is undoubtedly Lu Run.  To a certain extent, Tan Rui's power is equivalent to emptiness. Maybe it won't be long before the position of the palm print will be handed over to Lu Run.

    "I don't know when it will be the end of waiting here, so I simply pass through the Yuehua Gate. When the emperor wants to have a meal, he will return to the Yangxin Hall."

    In the past, Guanglu Temple was responsible for the catering of the palace. Later, it was gradually transferred. Guanglu Temple was only responsible for food and drinks for sacrifices, and the inner court was under the control of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.  The emperor's eating and drinking is a big deal, and it cannot be solved by ordinary people with just a few dishes and a soup.  For example, internal meals can be divided into meat and vegetable dishes, vegetarian dishes, snack dishes, dinner dishes, and oven-cooked dishes.  Long Live Lord spends a lot of money to eat a meal, fifty-three dishes for light meals (breakfast) and seventy-five dishes for dinner.  It¡¯s not that Long Live Lord¡¯s big belly can accommodate it, it¡¯s just to feed his eyes.

    When Songyin entered the Yangxin Hall, the dining room was arranging dishes. Lu Run was watching from the side, and the eunuch serving dishes announced the names of the dishes one by one. He shouted in a high-pitched and crisp voice: "One dish of sea cucumber, spinal cord, and three delicacies of bird's nest."  The first grade of shredded duck, the first grade of gourd and lucky wings, the first grade of hanging stove pig"

    There are only two formal meals in the palace all year round. This meal was already considered dinner, so the long table covered with yellow silk cloth was filled with various dishes.  It was rare for Songyin to come here during the meal, just in time to check on the errands of the cooks and kitchen servants. After looking around, there was nothing interesting.?Ticking, very good.

    Lu Run folded his hands and smiled, "Master Tong is here to inspect?"

    She said no, "I just went to Qianqing Palace to ask for a meeting with Lord Long Live. Lord Long Live is busy, so I might as well go here and wait."

    He was a capable man, very good at observing people's words. He suspected that something was wrong, so he asked: "Where are you from?" Songyin pointed to the northeast, he frowned and smiled, "Is it the Yonghe Palace? Lord Tong, go to Hui Zhu'er to have a look.  The princess is gone?"

    She shook her head. Hui concubine was very comfortable now. Although she gave birth to a daughter, Long live the Lord was not happy at first, but after seeing the child a few times, she gradually felt sorry for her.  After all, they are close by flesh and blood, and since they treat their children, they cannot be treated badly. The promise made at that time was fulfilled, and now that Hui Concubine has been promoted to Concubine Hui, she is already satisfied.

    Songyin glanced around, "I came from Zhongcui Palace. Lord Guo sent someone to look for me earlier, so I went over."

    "Master Guo?" Lu Run thought for a while, "Is it the Master Guo who is unwilling to sleep with you?"

    Songyin said yes, "That's her."

    "What happened?"

    Since he was a person close to the emperor and had nothing to avoid, he rolled a trumpet in his ear and said, "Master Guo seems to be pregnant. He didn't dare to tell anyone, nor did he ask the imperial doctor. Let the mother-in-law come back first."  Mine. I think it¡¯s not a trivial matter, and I should let Lord Long live know about it. As for how to set up files for the Jingsi Room and Taiyuan Hospital, it¡¯s all at Lord Long Live¡¯s command.¡±

    This meaning is very clear, because several young masters have experienced pregnancy and miscarriage before, and everyone will be more or less afraid.  The existence of Prince Yu cannot be avoided, and his tentacles must have penetrated deep into the inner court. As long as there is any trouble, he will know it immediately.  Songyin was really worried that the incident with Lady Xi was enough, and she didn't want to get into a dilemma again.  So keep quiet and sit quietly, which is better than anything else.

    After Lu Run considered it, he thought it was feasible. The emperor moved to the back of Yangxin Hall and waited patiently for him to finish his meal before reporting back.  The emperor didn't look very happy, but it's always good to see hope.  He licked his lips with a handkerchief and lowered his dark eyelashes. He thought for a moment and said, "I'll turn over her green card tonight and call the imperial doctor to take her pulse. If she is really pregnant" He looked at Song.  Silver, "I'll leave this person to you, can you keep her safe for me?"

    This point was not in Songyin's preparation. She just wanted to spread the word, at least she was prepared before Prince Yu.  Unexpectedly, after all the calculations, the matter still fell on her shoulders. It can be seen that tigers in the East Mountain eat people, and tigers in the West Mountain also eat people.  Only now does she realize how difficult it has been for her mother in the past ten years. To survive in the cracks, she relies not only on her brains, but also on luck.

    But what room for bargaining do you have with the emperor?  He is obviously asking you, but in fact he is giving you an order.  Songyin had no choice but to bow his waist and said: "Long live the Lord, I can trust you, and I should do my best. But I really don't dare to guarantee a woman's pregnancy."

    Lu Run was afraid that the emperor was going to be angry, so he took the lead and said: "Long live Lord, Lord Tong is a capable person, but he forgot that she has not yet married. Let a girl take care of a pregnant woman, fearing that Lord Tong is powerless. Long live Lord, please calm down and don't be impatient."  , wait until night to see clearly before making a decision. If she is really pregnant, just send more people to protect Master Guo. Even if it doesn't work, it is not impossible to ground her in the open and protect her secretly. "

    ¡°God, Songyin could not be more grateful to him for rescuing her at this time.  If Guo Guiren is handed over to her, she will have to take on this hot potato even if it burns her to pieces.  What are the consequences of catching it?  She was lucky if the child was born safely. If anything happened to her, she would be responsible for her death without a burial place. She really couldn't afford it.

    Fortunately, the emperor listened to Lu Run's words. He frowned and thought for a long time and finally relaxed. He sighed slowly and said, "Well, it's really difficult for you to say so. You didn't make it public when you got the news. You did a good job. I know your  Be loyal. You are still young and have a lot to learn, and I can¡¯t bear to be too harsh on you. Then just do as Lu Run said, and wait until the matter is settled, and consider everything in the long run."

    Songyin bowed and bowed, and then the stone in his heart slowly let go.  But after a moment of pause, the emperor suddenly turned around and looked at her, "I heard a rumor that Mr. Liu has been a matchmaker for you and Rong Shi. Is this true?"

    Songyin raised his eyes in shock, "Yes, they said that Rongshi and I are old enough to help us match up and let us see everything."

    A smile appeared on the emperor's lips, "How are you getting along?"

    At this time, she did not follow Prince Yu's instructions. At least in the eyes of the emperor, it was worth comforting.  She pursed her lips and smiled, "Rong Shi and I have only a moderate friendship, and when we suddenly talked about this, we were both a little embarrassed. I haven't thought about that, so I didn't dare to agree to the Sixth Master immediately."

    But the emperor said: "I think they are a perfect match. Rong Zhen has been with me for many years, and I can see his character and conduct. If you become a match, it will be considered a match made in heaven."When I get married, I must give you a big gift.  "
