Chapter 67

This Daughter of Destiny was not born well, she was just a merchant's daughter, if she wanted to enter the palace, she could only pass a small election, no matter how favored she was at home and how luxurious her life was, once she came to the palace, she would have to give up everything she had done in the past. Put it aside, and be a court lady honestly.

Without knowing each other well, Ran Yue didn't have any good or bad impressions of this Destiny's Daughter, she just simply asked: "What's your name?"

The girl raised her head, with a confident smile on her beautiful face, she replied neither humble nor overbearing: "The servant Cai Yunzhi has seen the empress dowager."

Ran Yue nodded, knowingly asked: "Yunzhi? It's an elegant name, can you read?"

Cai Yunzhi was secretly delighted, since the queen mother asked him so many questions, she must have taken a fancy to him, and he must perform well, if he had the queen mother as a backer, he would be able to go more smoothly in the palace.

"As for the Empress Dowager, slaves who are literate, although they say that a woman's ignorance is a virtue, but slaves feel that they are full of poetry and books, and it would be good to read more books."

"That's right, reading can be wise, even women should read more books, don't be blind. Hongdou, since Yunzhi can read and write, you can take some of her with you to share your tasks, Aijia recently heard Your voice is a bit hoarse." Ran Yue changed the subject, and directly pushed Cai Yunzhi into the team reading the book.

It is said that there are already more than a dozen maids reading storybooks to Ran Yue, but she likes to listen to them when she has nothing to do. In addition, these maids also have to practice themselves, so hoarseness is a common occurrence.However, reading a storybook and just moving your mouth is much better than working. Except for the eldest maids and nuns, the other maids have to work. The work may be light or heavy, but they must be done.

Hong Dou gave her a blessing, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Madam, for being considerate of us. I will definitely train Yunzhi well, and let her get familiar with the progress as soon as possible."

Cai Yunzhi followed and said: "Thank you for your kindness, my maidservant will definitely learn from you sisters."

Before entering the palace, Cai Yunzhi heard from an old lady that the lives of most court ladies are actually quite miserable, and it is only in the palace that people's lives are really regarded as worthless. Sometimes you don't even know when you die. how to die.But in the entire imperial palace, the place with the highest safety factor is the Ningshou Palace of the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager has cultivated her moral character in recent years, and her methods have been softened a lot. As long as you keep yourself safe, the Empress Dowager will never treat you badly.The queen mother has been in the palace for many years, and she has seen more tricks than you have ever eaten, so don't play tricks in front of her, you must be honest.

Now that she has entered the palace, Cai Yunzhi didn't think about keeping herself safe and being a little palace maid. She wants to become a master, a queen, and a queen mother. If she can please the Queen Mother Zhou in front of her, her The goal must be easier to achieve.

"Since the Empress Dowager likes obedient scripts, why doesn't she send someone to perform the scripts? Compared with simply listening, the content of the performance will be richer and more exciting." The appearance of women who can be selected into the palace will not be too bad. Cai Yunzhi's appearance is not the bright type, but the gentle type, which is suitable for men, women and children. Her appearance is still very popular with the elderly of.

Ran Yue is not an old lady, and she is used to all kinds of beauties. Cai Yunzhi's small gestures in front of her are really not worth mentioning, but there is one thing that Cai Yunzhi is right. These words are so interesting. Why don't you act them out? ?She has seen several stage plays in the theater, and she feels pretty good.

Seeing that Ran Yue's face seemed to be moved, Cai Yunzhi simply added to the flames, saying: "Madam, I heard that popular scripts such as "Fate in the Painting" and "The Legend of Yingniang" have already been staged in the troupe. Well, there is an opera troupe in the palace, and someone will polish the storybook, and let the troupe rehearse for a while before it can be staged, and the effect will definitely be better than simply listening to the book."

Ran Yue knocked on the table with her fingers. Naturally, there were opera troupes and kabuki for the imperial court, but Ran Yue didn't want to use those people.

"Ai's family has decided!" Ran Yue suddenly opened her eyes, and said loudly: "We don't need any theater troupe, we Ningshou Palace will do it ourselves. Zijing, your literary talent is the best, you should find out the latest words first. , choose one that is easy to adapt, and try to adapt it first. Cui Liu, you are good at singing and dancing. Find a way to solve any difficulties yourself. Aijia is rarely interested, so you all have to cooperate."

"Yes, the Queen Mother!" All the maids present agreed.

Although everyone lowered their heads, everyone noticed Cai Yunzhi. It was her words that made the queen mother decide to rehearse the script with great fanfare. It is conceivable that this girl is definitely in the eyes of the queen mother, with a bright future.The other three maids who were sent to Ningshou Palace with Cai Yunzhi felt envious of her in their hearts. They are also court ladies. How could she be questioned by the Queen Mother and why her suggestion was adopted by the Queen Mother? This is too embarrassing. People are jealous.

Ran Yue yawned, waved her hands, and said, "Okay, you all go down, Hongdou, you stay."

Of the four palace ladies, only Hong Dou was not assigned a task, but Hong Dou was not at all depressed, anyway, she spent the longest time with the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager couldn't do without her the most, and everyone else was dispensable.

When everyone retreated, Hongdou supported Ran Yue to lean on the couch, and bent over to massage her legs. Ran Yue was so comfortable that she almost screamed out, life is really good now, eating and playing, tired Rest when you are done, and there are a large group of servants to serve you, and you can just say what you want. Such a day is simply too decadent, and it is too gratifying.

Ran Yue said: "Hongdou, we have new people entering Ningshou Palace. You should watch them carefully. Those who do not follow the rules will be dealt with seriously according to the palace rules. Grandma Sun is getting older, and you will have to do all these things in the future." "

Hongdou was neither happy nor sad, and promised, "I will do what my mother tells you."

Ran Yue asked again: "By the way, who's daughters are entering the palace this time? I heard that there are not many new concubines."

Hongdou grinned, and quickly restrained her smile, saying: "With Concubine Wen here, how could the emperor be interested in ordinary women. This time there are only five concubines selected, all of whom are daughters of courtiers. The daughter of an adult, was named..."

As Hong Dou said, all the daughters of courtiers were allowed to enter the palace in this general election, and the highest status was only the concubine's daughter of a servant. Does the emperor have a stable relationship with the ministers?Anyway, with Concubine Wen Gui here, no matter how beautiful these concubines are, they will not disturb the emperor's heart. It is quite appropriate to choose these middle and lower level officials.
