"Where's the person?" Chang Gui frowned slightly, these boys, some of them are learning, they are so flustered about doing a big thing, they don't even understand the rules.

"Waiting outside, saying that the inside was not summoned, so I dare not come in." The little eunuch Weiwei replied.

Concubine Xiao Gui laughed after hearing this: "He is indeed a polite one, Lu Chang, go and bring him in!"

Saying that, the older maid who led Chang Gui into the palace walked out, and after a while led a seven or eight-year-old eunuch in.

The little eunuch came in and knelt down on the ground, "I have seen the imperial concubine, Your Highness the Fifth Prince!"

Hearing Concubine Xiao Gui's "get up", he stood up, bowed his head and stood behind Chang Gui, calling Master softly.

Chang Gui was really happy to see that the apprentice who had always valued him behaved well when he met the nobleman for the first time, and the corners of his brows could not help but relax - although this child is not very old, he is indeed the most sensible.

Looking from Concubine Xiao and the Fifth Prince, I felt that there was a person carved from jade standing in front of me, with white porcelain complexion, delicate eyebrows, pink lips, and a red mole the size of a grain of rice on the tip of the left eyebrow. The entire face is white and flawless.

Is a beautiful child!

Concubine Xiao Gui secretly sighed in her heart, but for some reason she always felt displeased when she first saw this little eunuch.

"This child is so beautiful, like a little golden boy!"

Concubine Xiao Gui glanced lightly at Hongyu beside her who said this, feeling even more displeased.

Zuo Zuo is just a slave, and being too outstanding may not be a good thing.And the girl Hongyu, when she entered the palace, her speech was still so nonchalant, a servant was like a golden boy, so where did she go with all the masters in the palace?

Thinking of this, Concubine Xiao looked down at the little boy who lowered his head again. She was about to speak when she suddenly felt her body tense up. In the blink of an eye, she saw the fifth prince Wen Mu who was always looking bored and impatient beside her. Staring at the servant boy sitting down with piercing eyes, the right hand that was originally hanging by her side also tightly grasped the corner of her clothes.

He sighed secretly in his heart, it seemed that Mu'er liked this little eunuch very much, so he was looking for a servant for him, since he was happy to see it, let him do as he wanted, so as to save him from quarreling with him in the future.

Looking at the little boy below in a blink of an eye, this little eunuch looks really well-behaved and sensible, besides, this is the person chosen by the Chang Da eunuch, so it's all about this, so it's not good to lose face on him.Besides this appearance, it may not be a good thing to be with the emperor in the future.

Put it away for now, if you are really confused, find a chance to dismiss it later.

Thinking like this, Concubine Xiao looked carefully at Chang Xiu under her eyes, and then said with a smile: "So, it is the love of Cheng Gonggong!"

"As long as the empress likes it!" Chang Gui lowered his eyebrows and glanced at the people behind him, only to see that the child's face was watery, but his eyes were more warm than usual.

Hongyu sent Chang Gui and the little eunuch who ran out of the palace to call people just now out of Feixia Hall, seeing no one around, she smiled and took Chang Gui's hand and stuffed a purse.

"Thanks to the father-in-law this time, otherwise we would not be able to choose such a favorite person for a while, and now we would have snatched the father-in-law's apprentice. Our mother said, we accept this favor, but If you are too tired to spend on your father-in-law's work, you can't let your troubles go to waste, so the father-in-law will buy some tea first, so that you can relax!"

Although the life of slaves in the palace is not comparable to that of ordinary rich families outside, but there is not much moon silver that can be obtained, and the rewards of ordinary nobles are at most nothing more than scraps of silver. This purse looks like a lot. It was so heavy that it was comparable to half a year's monthly salary of an ordinary eunuch in the palace. No wonder the eyes of the little eunuch following Chang Gui lit up when he saw him.

Chang Gui was not polite, he stuffed the purse into his sleeve pocket with a normal expression, then nodded at Hongyu and said: "This is a matter of old slave's duty, but since it is a reward from the empress, it is disrespectful. Go back, girl, this old slave has to go back and check it out, and then report to the emperor."

"The servant girl will not be far away, please go, father-in-law!" Hongyu saluted, then stood outside the gate of the palace and did not move forward.

Chang Gui led the little eunuch a few steps forward, and suddenly he turned around and said to Hongyu: "I have something else I want to ask the girl to take care of."

"Elder-in-law said that there is no defense, Hongyu will definitely not refuse if she can do it!" Thinking that the master said that these old eunuchs are hard to please, now she has the opportunity to give this old eunuch a favor. For human feelings, Hongyu's tone couldn't help becoming more affectionate.

"Perhaps it was a fate in a previous life. The child Chang Xiu fell in love with me the first time I saw her. The girl knows that our family has stayed in this palace for most of my life. When I am old, it is difficult to see any relatives. It's rare to see such a caring child, and I always have some concerns in my heart."

Although he asked Hongyu for help, Chang Gui's tone was slow and orderly, not in a hurry.

"Your Majesty is a benevolent master. It is his good fortune that the child can serve in the Empress's Palace. It's just that he is still young and has not been in the palace for a long time. He will follow the fifth prince from now on. Watching, I can't guarantee that I will break the rules at any time. The girl has always been valued by the mother, and I hope that I can take care of him more on weekdays, teach him some rules, and tell him to make fewer mistakes, which will only make the masters unhappy. "

After hearing this, Hongyu just smiled and said, "Eunuch is kind and loving, and he takes care of the boys below. Changxiu's child, even the servants will like it very much. Since the father-in-law said so, it is necessary for the servants to see each other later. Take more snacks, you can rest assured!"

"Then our family thanked the girl first for being here!" Chang Gui cupped his hands at Hongyu, then turned around and led the little eunuch away.This time, it really went far.

Hongyu sends Chang Gui away, turns around and enters the hall, but sees only the empress and the impatient little master sitting in the hall, Liu Shangyi is standing at the side talking with the empress, Lushang and a group of new eunuchs, young masters The ladies of the palace were all gone.

Hongyu guessed that the empress had asked Lv Chang to lead the group of children to the back of the hall to give orders, so she wanted to go forward to answer, but she heard Liu Shangyi say: "It's just an old eunuch, can the empress be so polite? People, not to mention that he is just an old eunuch, and the empress thinks more of it!"

Because Liu Shangyi is Concubine Xiao's personal maid who has been by her side since she was a child, so when she speaks, she is not as cautious as ordinary slaves.

"Although he is a eunuch, don't forget that half of this palace is dominated by these eunuchs. Who in the palace can be as well-informed as these eunuchs? And who can be better than these eunuchs? People often say, 'It is better to offend a real villain than to offend a hypocrite'. Although these eunuchs are not as good as hypocrites, they usually bow their heads and ears in front of them. Who knows what is going on in their hearts, saying Maybe the future fate of my palace will depend on these eunuchs."

Concubine Xiao Gui took the teacup offered by Liu Shangyi unhurriedly, took a sip, and continued: "Besides, this Chang Gui is not only the chief inspector of etiquette, but also an old man in the palace. .Looking at him usually not showing the mountains or the water, but he is really a human sperm. If there is any trouble in the palace, I am afraid that the rabbit ears can't reach his length."

Concubine Xiao Gui put the teacup back on the table, then lowered her head and thought about the old eunuch who had just left.

This kind of old palace people can climb to today's position because they have deep thoughts, I am afraid that ordinary people will not be able to win them over if they want to.Obviously, except for the emperor, he will not stand on any side. After three generations, this Changgui can still stand here and be in charge of a prison, because he is all-round and exquisite, and he will not offend any master in the palace. If she can really win him over, is she afraid that she will lose the benefits in the future?

Seeing that Concubine Xiao Gui didn't speak, Liu Shangyi added some water to the teacup, and then said with a smile: "Your Majesty said, among these old eunuchs, whoever is not old enough to protect himself is the last time On the north side, they wanted to take care of the eunuch Kebao who was next to the emperor, but they were sent back. After all, they have never seen the world, they came from a small family, and they don’t think about those big eunuchs. They dare to receive small favors, but they dare to close their eyes to accept big things when they are sent over in the open?"

Hearing Liu Shangyi mentioned the north side, Concubine Xiao finally raised her head, she said softly: "The emperor is most afraid of handing over the servants in the harem and sending messages privately. It's a waste of knowledge for the emperor to pamper her."

"Your Majesty's lesson, I've written it down, the servants over there are not as intelligent as your Majesty, why are you angry with them!" Seeing Concubine Xiao's gloomy face, Liu Shangyi quickly explained.

Seeing that the two of them stopped talking, Hongyu stepped forward and replied: "My lady, everything is according to your order, and the person has already sent away." Then she repeated what she and Chang Gui said outside the hall, Even the matter that Chang Gui entrusted her to take care of others was also mentioned, except that he did not say what he promised.

"It seems that this Chang Xiu is so likable, even the eldest eunuch Chang told him to subdue him!" Concubine Xiao was holding tea, and when she heard the name of that beautiful little eunuch, her eyes narrowed unconsciously. As for Wen Mu, who was sitting beside her, when he heard Hongyu mentioning the little eunuch, his expression of impatience became heavier, and he even became a little anxious.

"You're nothing but an eunuch, so I'm making you anxious!" Seeing this, Concubine Xiao Gui scolded angrily, but she saw that the impetuous Fifth Prince's eyes tightened, and he actually let out an aggression.

"It's rare for Your Highness to find a playmate, but today it was so easy to meet a pleasing one, and I can't blame him for being impatient. They are all stubborn children, so don't be mad at your empress!" Liu Shangyi, who was standing on the side, quickly comforted her.

"It's called your favorite in the world. The older this child is, the less tempered he will be!"

Seeing the imperial concubine's anger, Liu Shangyi looked at the red jade standing on the left and right, and said with a smile: "Where is the empress, I'm afraid I will let the aunt know, and I will blame the empress for being too harsh. To have such a child, This kind of blessing can't be cultivated by a servant even in ten lifetimes. Right now, His Highness is just showing his stubbornness, and the empress is considerate, even if it makes him happy, it's not a bad thing!"

Concubine Xiao gently caressed the teacup with her left hand, looked at her son's tightly pursed face, and felt that the words were a bit more serious in her heart, so she said: "Isn't this Gong worried that this child will be like his father? You have entered the heresy, just learn some not-so-famous tricks."

Concubine Xiao Gui dared to say that, but Liu Shangyi and Hongyu next to her didn't dare to respond, her tone paused, and she said to the fifth prince sitting next to her: "Forget it, today is all you want, go find someone to play with." But, you can remember that the left and right are just slaves, even if they like it, they are just objects, and they don’t spend much time on it for fun. You are too old, and I can’t control you for a few days now. , there are some things I don't say, you should understand in your heart."

"Forget it, baby!" The Fifth Prince, who had never spoken since sitting in the hall, replied softly, with a crisp voice, making one feel that his obsidian-like eyes seemed to become clearer.
