Of course, Si Ning also heard about the empress tossing about in the fourth prince's backyard.
But she didn't care, she didn't need to guess what the queen was thinking, now there are several princes, only the fourth elder brother has no heirs, the queen is also worried.
But she would skip Fujin and find Ge Ge, it seems that Fujin must have offended her.
Si Ning put this idea in his heart, maybe it will be useful in the future.
But Sifujin was very calm after knowing what the queen had done.
She doesn't mind the concubine being born before her at all, because she knows very well that sometimes a child who is not a husband has an advantage, and the future of the child depends on whether the child can live up to expectations.
Sifujin sat firmly on the Diaoyutai without any reaction. After hearing about it, the queen praised her a little.
"No wonder you dare to play tricks on me. It turns out that she is very successful. Well, I want to see how long she can be stable." The queen smiled lightly after listening to Liu Xu's reply.
Liu Xu didn't say a word, this time she went to deliver medicine to Xianggege, and naturally she also went to Sifujin's room to pay her respects, but Sifujin didn't reject her at all, instead she talked to her in a soft voice for a while, and then When he left, he also gave her a thick purse.
Liu Xu couldn't help feeling fond of Sifu Jin in her heart, such a master who doesn't act like a slave is rare in this palace.
But facing the Queen's words, she still dared not say a single unnecessary word, and just listened silently.
The queen didn't respond to Liu Xu, and didn't bother to talk to her, so she waved her hand and asked her to back down.
But thinking in her heart, she only hoped that Xiangge could live up to her expectations this time.
……
The sky is getting hotter day by day, and ice is slowly being offered everywhere.
There is plenty of ice in Si Ning, no one dares to play tricks on her, but those unfavored concubines may not have such a good thing, and there is a few squares of ice missing in Enguiren's courtyard today.
The court lady in front of Mr. Engui was so angry that she wanted to go to the House of Internal Affairs to argue with her, but she was stopped by Mr. Engui.
She has a weak personality, and she didn't dare to stand out when something like this happened, but said with tears: "After all, I am incompetent, and you will suffer if you follow me. If you think it's too hot, I still have some money here. You take it Go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and buy some more."
The court lady, Magpie, laughed angrily at this remark, and said with hatred: "How can the nobleman tolerate their behavior blindly, and the slave is not too hot, but just can't bear it. There are not many cases in our courtyard. If you give in again and again, I'm afraid it will fuel the arrogance of this screwdriver slave, and what should we do when the nobleman runs out of money in the future?"
Engui was overwhelmed by what he said, and lost his mind for a while.
The magpie looked at the tearful appearance of the master, and knew that the master was weak and couldn't just force him, otherwise it would be bad, so he thought for a while and sighed: "Master, if it really doesn't work, let's go to the empress to make the decision." , Your Majesty treated you so well before, and I thought she felt pity for you, but now that you are being treated like this by the people below, will the Empress Empress also sit back and watch?"
Mrs. Engui hesitated when she heard this. In the past few days, every time she went to look for the queen, she was given various excuses. Six or seven times out of ten times she couldn't see her, and now she was asked to go again. There is also some bottomless.
But the magpie is an assertive person, and without waiting for the gentleman to say anything, he directly pulled the gentleman to dress up, and said neatly: "Don't think too much, gentleman, let's pack up and go, no matter what, this matter has to be done." There must be an explanation!"
Mrs. Engui had no idea, so she could only let the maid pull her to dress up.
After grooming, Mr. Engui led the maid to the Queen's residence.
As soon as he walked to the door, he saw Changpu sitting at the gate of the courtyard drying his hair. Seeing the nobleman coming, Changpu was startled, and hurriedly straightened his hair. Then he stood up and said with a smile, "Why did you come here? Why don't you rest indoors on a hot day."
After hearing this, the magpie was filled with resentment: "We nobles also want to rest, but the room is so hot that we can't sit still."
Calamus turned his eyes, thinking that the House of Internal Affairs had just offered ice to the palaces this morning, so how could it be so hot in the room of the benefactor?After thinking about it again, calamus will understand.
But this matter is a hot potato. The affairs of the House of Internal Affairs are complicated, and she cannot intervene. Moreover, her hair is not dry yet, so it is not appropriate to go in and answer the master.
So Calamus didn't start the conversation, just smiled and said: "It's a coincidence that the nobleman came, the empress is resting in the room, I'm afraid I won't be able to see the nobleman right now."
Just as he was talking, there was a burst of laughter in the room, and the queen's voice was faintly mixed with the sound.
But Calamus was not at all embarrassed, and still looked at the two of them with a smile.
The magpie wanted to argue angrily.
Engui's face was flushed, and he didn't know if it was because of the sun, but he was still a little embarrassed. He grabbed the magpie who was still about to talk, and said in a low voice: "In this case, let's go back first, and come back when the mother wakes up." Greetings to your mother."
Calamus smiled and bowed to the benefactor: "The slave will definitely bring the words of the benefactor."
Mr. Engui seemed extremely ashamed, turned around and hurried out of the yard without saying a word.
When he came out, the magpie said angrily: "You obviously heard the laughter in the room, why didn't your lord let the servant and the calamus distinguish a few words."
Engui's face was full of shame and indignation, he shook his handkerchief and said, "He already has such an attitude, why bother to humiliate himself." Speaking of this, she couldn't help crying again: "It's also because I'm incompetent and can't help When it comes to Empress Empress, Empress Empress should dislike me."
The magpie became more and more annoyed when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "Why should you abandon yourself like this, the nobleman was chosen by the emperor himself to enter the palace, and he is the most serious master in this palace. The nobleman belongs to the nobleman, what does this have to do with the empress?" It doesn't matter, when the empress needs you, she will take good care of you, and when she doesn't need you, she will throw you away like a shoe, such a humiliation, can the nobleman bear it?"
The nobleman bit his lips: "Even if I can't bear it, what can I do? Now I have nothing to rely on in the palace, let alone dote on me, so can I still go against the empress?"
Magpie heard this, but also heard some meaning, it seemed that the nobleman was not as tolerant as he showed, it was nothing more than having no backing and not daring to offend others.
Thinking of this, the magpie became more confident about what she was about to say, she pulled the nobleman to the corner, and whispered: "Your difficulties, the slaves don't know, but there are not only queens and concubines in the palace now. Lord, why did you hang yourself from a tree?"
When the nobleman heard this, his expression changed suddenly, and he clenched the handkerchief tightly: "Don't talk nonsense, the empress and the imperial concubine are not on good terms, and the empress has treated me well before, how can I use words to rebel? Things."
Magpie looked at Enguiren, and had some vague guesses in his heart. He was able to say that the person he was hinting at was the imperial concubine. He thought that Enguiren hadn't realized that, so there was still a chance.
Thinking in this way, the magpie continued to encourage: "The empress did treat you very well before, but you also said a lot of good things about the empress in front of the emperor, and even made the emperor dislike you. Isn't this also repaying the empress? Your kindness, now that the Empress has abandoned you like a shoestring, why do you bother to think about the Empress, maybe the Empress thinks we are a burden."
"Besides, the slave is not saying that you should go to the imperial concubine, it's just that this time, the Ministry of Internal Affairs did something wrong, and the slave also heard that the imperial concubine handles things fairly. In the future, the empress will find out, but she can’t say anything even if she thinks about it, after all, the empress doesn’t care about you, we have no choice but to go to the noble concubine to decide.”
Engui was already a little shaken in her heart, but today's calamus behavior really hurt her fragile self-esteem, and now that Magpie's analysis made sense, she was silent for a long time, and finally hesitated: "Then, then find Looking for the noble concubine?"
The magpie was overjoyed, she was finally persuaded, but she is a bit of a city man, knowing that such a straightforward past, I am afraid it is not suitable, and maybe people will think she has other plans, so the magpie remonstrated: "Why don't you talk to Concubine Xun first, Concubine Xun and Concubine Gui are good friends, maybe you can help us spread the word."
Mr. Engui felt relieved that he didn't have to face the imperial concubine directly, and nodded his head hastily.
The master and the servant made up their minds, and without further hesitation, they headed towards Concubine Xun's residence.
……
Si Ning woke up from a nap and had just had a sip of sour plum soup when she heard a message from outside that Concubine Xun came over.
Si Ning thought about it, Concubine Xun came here at this moment, maybe something happened, so he asked Concubine Xun to come in and talk.
Not long after, Concubine Xun lifted the curtain and came in. She was wearing a lotus-colored flag dress, and her hair was only combed a little, which looked refreshing.
As soon as he entered the door, he smiled and said: "The concubine smelled the smell of sweet-scented osmanthus and black plum soup in the empress's house outside, and now it looks like it really is."
Si Ning couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and hurriedly said to Qing Jin: "Hurry up and serve your poor master a bowl of ebony soup."
Qing Jin smiled and brought up a bowl of ebony soup, Concubine Xun acted weird at the moment, smiled and bowed to Si Ning: "The concubine would like to thank the imperial concubine for the reward."
Seeing her like this, Si Ning couldn't help laughing.
After the two finished talking, they laughed, and then they talked about the business again. Concubine Xun told about the fact that Mr. Benedict came to her courtyard at noon today.
"It's strange to say that a person like Engui, who doesn't yell at the pain when the needle is pricked, would do such a thing. Although the words are secretive, the inside and outside of the words also want you to give her The meaning of being the master."
Si Ning listened to these words, but fell into deep thought, the Queen always acted only for the benefit, not for friendship, and would abandon the benefactor, it is a matter of course, after all, the present benefactor is lost to the Queen Qualified to use.
However, what happened at noon today is mostly caused by the servants below. The queen will not be someone who is unwilling to do such a thing. She pays the most attention to face. It's also not good for her reputation.
However, this servant dared to treat Engui like this, which also shows that the queen ignored Engui.
Si Ning finally nodded his head: "Anyway, this matter is indeed a bit inappropriate. The Ministry of Internal Affairs is also a bit too much, and the nobles in the palace dare to skip the rules."
Seeing what Si Ning said, Concubine Xun smiled and said: "I knew that the empress would not let it go, but this is also a good thing. Now that the nobleman and the queen are separated, even if the nobleman is inferior, it may not be certain in the future." will work."
Si Ning nodded: "I don't want to come forward about this matter, you can find someone to mention a few words to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so as not to attract the attention of others."
Concubine Xun responded with a smile.
After the two finished talking about this, they also talked about other daily routines. Seeing that it was getting late, Concubine Xun returned to her residence.
……
As for Mrs. Engui, she waited in her courtyard all night anxiously, and the next day, people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came to make up all the ice she missed this time.
Moreover, the person who came to deliver ice to her was also very talkative, and apologized to the benefactor with a smile: "The slave who delivered ice to the nobleman was blind yesterday, and he miscalculated the amount, and the gift to the nobleman was less. , very annoyed, he has already dismissed that man from his errand, and the slave came here today to make an apology to the nobleman."
When has Mrs. Engui seen this posture, even when she is the most favored, the Ministry of Internal Affairs may not be so obsequious, and hastily waved his hands: "Don't dare, just correct if you make a mistake."
Seeing her like this, the ice delivery man had some idea in his heart, this kind man is so talkative, no wonder the previous man dared to be so bold, but he had something to say, knowing that this master has been protected by someone, naturally Not daring to do any more bold things, just smiled and flattered a few words, and then politely left.
Watching the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs leave, Engui heaved a sigh of relief: "I didn't know before that there are such talkative people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
Magpie sneered at the side: "Your honor thinks too much of them. They know that someone is covering you, and that's why they are so talkative. If there is no one covering you, how can these people be like this?"
After thinking about it, Mrs. Engui felt that what Magpie said was right, she nodded and said: "The imperial concubine is a good person."
The magpie laughed secretly, and said that the nobleman is honest. Does she mean that the queen is not a good person?
But the magpie didn't dare to say these words, so it could only agree with it, and helped the nobleman to go to the back room.
……
Mr. Engui lived close to the queen, so if something happened here, the queen would naturally know about it.
Calamus is still a little strange, when will those people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs spit out what they swallowed.
On the contrary, the queen was silent for a while, looked at Changpu and said, "The nobleman came over yesterday, what did you tell the nobleman?"
Calamus was startled and didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly told the queen what he had said.
Then he said in a low voice: "The slave is also thinking, this matter of Mr. Engui is not urgent, and the empress is seeing guests at that time, so there is no need to disturb the empress because of this matter."
The queen was indeed meeting guests at the time, but what she saw was just an old lady in the palace. In order to let the fourth elder brother get news from the back house, the queen had exhausted her mind and finally found someone who was famous for her health. I just wanted to see my mother, but I didn't expect that Mr. Engui would come, and I was dismissed by Chang Pu with two or three words.
Normally, the empress would not pursue these matters, and might even praise Calamus for his swift action, but now that something like this happened, the empress felt a little unhappy.
"No matter what, such a thing should be reported to me, and now you are my master!"
The Queen's words were very cold, and Calamus knelt down on the ground when he heard it: "I dare not, and my slave has exceeded the rules, so please punish me!"
The queen held back her anger, thinking that this matter should not be made a big deal, and that most of the people operating here were the noble concubine, and she couldn't tell the noble concubine to laugh at her, so she finally said coldly: "You will be fined for three months. Monthly example, start today to take care of the flowers and trees."
After hearing these words, Calamus' heart became cold, and he finally climbed to the inner room, and now he is back before liberation!
She couldn't help but hate the benefactor in her heart. It's not a good time to come, but that's the time to come!
But at this moment, she didn't dare to say a word, so she could only accept the punishment respectfully.
Watching the calamus go out, the queen's eyes were heavy, and she said to Liu Xu after a long time: "Choose someone smart outside to serve you."
Liu Xu agreed, but she was a little happy in her heart. Calamus has gone out. In the future, her family should be the only one in the inner room, and the empress should assign those errands that show her face to her.
……
At noon, Mr. Engui was invited by the queen to go to Tiandi Family Spring.
The benefactor felt a little apprehensive, for fear that the queen might not be looking for her.
But thinking about the Queen's cold treatment during this period, Enguiren felt that he was doing the right thing. For a while, two thoughts were fighting in Enguiren's mind, and Enguiren became more and more uneasy.
In the end, when they arrived at the queen's palace, Engui found that the queen was extraordinarily gentle to her, so he smiled and told her about himself.
"It's also because I've been so busy these past few days that I didn't have any scruples about it. I didn't expect that this screwdriver slave would be so bold that he would actually bully you. Don't worry, it won't happen again in the future."
Mr. Engui was dizzy from what the queen said, and suddenly felt that the queen was also difficult to do, and the queen should not be blamed for this matter.
After finishing speaking, the queen gave the nobleman some jewelry as compensation.
"I used to wear these jewelry a lot, you just take it, and treat it as my compensation for the grievance you have suffered this time." The queen's face was soft.
Engui felt a little grateful for a while, and almost swore to be loyal to the queen in the future.
Fortunately, the magpie behind her tugged on her sleeve at this moment, and Engui came back to her senses.
She has voted for the imperial concubine now, if she changes her mind again, I'm afraid neither side will be able to tolerate her.
This is what the magpie told her before, and the benefactor finally remembered this matter, and hurriedly lowered his head and refused: "Your Majesty, the words are serious, and these matters are all due to the lack of dedication of the subordinates. I can't blame your Majesty. The so-called apology Even concubines can't bear the burden of language, and concubines dare not accept these things."
Hearing this, the queen felt a little angry for no reason.
I have already talked to her in a good voice, but I didn't expect her to be so ungrateful.
In fact, from the very beginning, the queen felt a little annoyed by her kindness.
It was just a few perfunctory words by the servant, but he was so arrogant, and he couldn't wait for a day, so he went directly to the imperial concubine, and made her lose face as well.
Today, being able to call her over to talk better, the queen considers herself to be the most benevolent, since she is so ignorant, why should she condescend to a little nobleman.
Thinking of this, the queen's face froze, and said lightly: "Since Mr. Engui speaks like this, then I can't say anything else. If you have nothing to do, go back first. I'm a little tired."
Seeing the queen's change of face, the benefactor was also a little uneasy, but thinking about what the magpie said before, the benefactor didn't dare to say any more, so he could only stand up, salute and leave, and went out sullenly.
Seeing the embarrassment of the benefactor, the queen sneered, since the concubine wants something that is not on the table, then give it to her. This also shows the noble concubine's heart, and she really can't get things done.
……
Si Ning heard that the Queen had called Engui to talk, but she was not worried. The reason why she stood up for Engui was because she felt sorry for her, and on the other hand, she was just taking a leisurely move. Can you It doesn't matter what happens.
Moreover, the queen's city will not wear small shoes for Engui because of this matter. It can be said that Engui's situation is better than before. Engui, not to mention that behind Engui, there is himself.
Thinking of this, Si Ning smiled, and asked when San Fujin would come over today, and she couldn't help but feel a little happy when she heard that she came here after dinner.
The two twins are just having fun, and Si Ning also likes to see them.
……
Erfujin Guerjia vomited faintly in the room.
The whole person was leaning on the couch, looking very weak.
And the maid in front of her gave her a worried expression: "But if you want to find the imperial doctor, Fujin's embarrassment is too severe."
Er Fujin shook his head: "Bring over the candied fruit that Er Niang asked to bring into the palace today, I think it tastes good after eating it."
Hearing this, the court lady's face flashed with joy: "The candied fruit is so sour, but Fujin eats it well, so it can be seen that this baby is an elder brother."
Guerjia gave a wry smile, at this point, she no longer cared about the difference between Elder Brother and Princess.
Thinking of this, Guarjia changed the subject: "Is there any news from the family today?"
The goddess of the palace straightened her expression, and then said it in a low voice.
It's news, but it's just some words of advice, so that Guarjia can relax and take good care of himself.
But the last sentence of Guerjia was a little puzzled.
"You said, the relationship between the second elder brother and the second elder brother has been close these few days?"
The maid was stunned, then nodded again: "Yes, the messenger said that the second elder brother always went to talk to the second master, and the second master also heard a lot of news about Fujin from the second elder brother, and knew that Fujin was having a hard time recently. Only then did the old lady make some candied fruit you like and send them in."
Guarjia frowned deeply, he knew what kind of person the second elder brother was.
This person has no profit and can't wait to get so close to her second brother all of a sudden, does he have any intentions?
Thinking of the second brother's errand, Guerjia only felt that this matter was unusual.
After thinking for a while, she finally said: "Next time, if there is news from the family, you must tell the family to let the second elder brother work well, and don't always hang out with the second elder brother."
Hearing this, the court lady also changed her face: "Does Fujin think there is something wrong?"
Mrs. Guarjia shook her head: "I can't say, but the second elder brother is moody and narrow-minded, so he is not the master."
The maid almost died of fright when she heard these words, she hurriedly knelt down on the ground, unable to utter a word.
But Guerjia didn't look at her, just kept silent for a long time, and then said: "It's fine for me to fall into it alone, if the second brother and the others fall into it again, then I will die beyond redemption."
The palace maid knelt in her place, not daring to say a word, and the room was completely silent.
But she didn't care, she didn't need to guess what the queen was thinking, now there are several princes, only the fourth elder brother has no heirs, the queen is also worried.
But she would skip Fujin and find Ge Ge, it seems that Fujin must have offended her.
Si Ning put this idea in his heart, maybe it will be useful in the future.
But Sifujin was very calm after knowing what the queen had done.
She doesn't mind the concubine being born before her at all, because she knows very well that sometimes a child who is not a husband has an advantage, and the future of the child depends on whether the child can live up to expectations.
Sifujin sat firmly on the Diaoyutai without any reaction. After hearing about it, the queen praised her a little.
"No wonder you dare to play tricks on me. It turns out that she is very successful. Well, I want to see how long she can be stable." The queen smiled lightly after listening to Liu Xu's reply.

Liu Xu couldn't help feeling fond of Sifu Jin in her heart, such a master who doesn't act like a slave is rare in this palace.
But facing the Queen's words, she still dared not say a single unnecessary word, and just listened silently.
The queen didn't respond to Liu Xu, and didn't bother to talk to her, so she waved her hand and asked her to back down.
But thinking in her heart, she only hoped that Xiangge could live up to her expectations this time.
……
The sky is getting hotter day by day, and ice is slowly being offered everywhere.
There is plenty of ice in Si Ning, no one dares to play tricks on her, but those unfavored concubines may not have such a good thing, and there is a few squares of ice missing in Enguiren's courtyard today.

The court lady, Magpie, laughed angrily at this remark, and said with hatred: "How can the nobleman tolerate their behavior blindly, and the slave is not too hot, but just can't bear it. There are not many cases in our courtyard. If you give in again and again, I'm afraid it will fuel the arrogance of this screwdriver slave, and what should we do when the nobleman runs out of money in the future?"
Engui was overwhelmed by what he said, and lost his mind for a while.
The magpie looked at the tearful appearance of the master, and knew that the master was weak and couldn't just force him, otherwise it would be bad, so he thought for a while and sighed: "Master, if it really doesn't work, let's go to the empress to make the decision." , Your Majesty treated you so well before, and I thought she felt pity for you, but now that you are being treated like this by the people below, will the Empress Empress also sit back and watch?"
Mrs. Engui hesitated when she heard this. In the past few days, every time she went to look for the queen, she was given various excuses. Six or seven times out of ten times she couldn't see her, and now she was asked to go again. There is also some bottomless.
But the magpie is an assertive person, and without waiting for the gentleman to say anything, he directly pulled the gentleman to dress up, and said neatly: "Don't think too much, gentleman, let's pack up and go, no matter what, this matter has to be done." There must be an explanation!"

The nobleman belongs to the nobleman, what does this have to do with the empress?" It doesn't matter, when the empress needs you, she will take good care of you, and when she doesn't need you, she will throw you away like a shoe, such a humiliation, can the nobleman bear it?"
The nobleman bit his lips: "Even if I can't bear it, what can I do? Now I have nothing to rely on in the palace, let alone dote on me, so can I still go against the empress?"

When the nobleman heard this, his expression changed suddenly, and he clenched the handkerchief tightly: "Don't talk nonsense, the empress and the imperial concubine are not on good terms, and the empress has treated me well before, how can I use words to rebel? Things."

Mr. Engui felt relieved that he didn't have to face the imperial concubine directly, and nodded his head hastily.
The master and the servant made up their minds, and without further hesitation, they headed towards Concubine Xun's residence.
……
Si Ning woke up from a nap and had just had a sip of sour plum soup when she heard a message from outside that Concubine Xun came over.
Si Ning thought about it, Concubine Xun came here at this moment, maybe something happened, so he asked Concubine Xun to come in and talk.
Not long after, Concubine Xun lifted the curtain and came in. She was wearing a lotus-colored flag dress, and her hair was only combed a little, which looked refreshing.
As soon as he entered the door, he smiled and said: "The concubine smelled the smell of sweet-scented osmanthus and black plum soup in the empress's house outside, and now it looks like it really is."
Si Ning couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and hurriedly said to Qing Jin: "Hurry up and serve your poor master a bowl of ebony soup."
Qing Jin smiled and brought up a bowl of ebony soup, Concubine Xun acted weird at the moment, smiled and bowed to Si Ning: "The concubine would like to thank the imperial concubine for the reward."
Seeing her like this, Si Ning couldn't help laughing.
After the two finished talking, they laughed, and then they talked about the business again. Concubine Xun told about the fact that Mr. Benedict came to her courtyard at noon today.
"It's strange to say that a person like Engui, who doesn't yell at the pain when the needle is pricked, would do such a thing. Although the words are secretive, the inside and outside of the words also want you to give her The meaning of being the master."
Si Ning listened to these words, but fell into deep thought, the Queen always acted only for the benefit, not for friendship, and would abandon the benefactor, it is a matter of course, after all, the present benefactor is lost to the Queen Qualified to use.
However, what happened at noon today is mostly caused by the servants below. The queen will not be someone who is unwilling to do such a thing. She pays the most attention to face. It's also not good for her reputation.
However, this servant dared to treat Engui like this, which also shows that the queen ignored Engui.
Si Ning finally nodded his head: "Anyway, this matter is indeed a bit inappropriate. The Ministry of Internal Affairs is also a bit too much, and the nobles in the palace dare to skip the rules."
Seeing what Si Ning said, Concubine Xun smiled and said: "I knew that the empress would not let it go, but this is also a good thing. Now that the nobleman and the queen are separated, even if the nobleman is inferior, it may not be certain in the future." will work."
Si Ning nodded: "I don't want to come forward about this matter, you can find someone to mention a few words to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so as not to attract the attention of others."
Concubine Xun responded with a smile.
After the two finished talking about this, they also talked about other daily routines. Seeing that it was getting late, Concubine Xun returned to her residence.
……
As for Mrs. Engui, she waited in her courtyard all night anxiously, and the next day, people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came to make up all the ice she missed this time.
Moreover, the person who came to deliver ice to her was also very talkative, and apologized to the benefactor with a smile: "The slave who delivered ice to the nobleman was blind yesterday, and he miscalculated the amount, and the gift to the nobleman was less. , very annoyed, he has already dismissed that man from his errand, and the slave came here today to make an apology to the nobleman."
When has Mrs. Engui seen this posture, even when she is the most favored, the Ministry of Internal Affairs may not be so obsequious, and hastily waved his hands: "Don't dare, just correct if you make a mistake."
Seeing her like this, the ice delivery man had some idea in his heart, this kind man is so talkative, no wonder the previous man dared to be so bold, but he had something to say, knowing that this master has been protected by someone, naturally Not daring to do any more bold things, just smiled and flattered a few words, and then politely left.
Watching the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs leave, Engui heaved a sigh of relief: "I didn't know before that there are such talkative people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
Magpie sneered at the side: "Your honor thinks too much of them. They know that someone is covering you, and that's why they are so talkative. If there is no one covering you, how can these people be like this?"
After thinking about it, Mrs. Engui felt that what Magpie said was right, she nodded and said: "The imperial concubine is a good person."
The magpie laughed secretly, and said that the nobleman is honest. Does she mean that the queen is not a good person?
But the magpie didn't dare to say these words, so it could only agree with it, and helped the nobleman to go to the back room.
……
Mr. Engui lived close to the queen, so if something happened here, the queen would naturally know about it.
Calamus is still a little strange, when will those people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs spit out what they swallowed.
On the contrary, the queen was silent for a while, looked at Changpu and said, "The nobleman came over yesterday, what did you tell the nobleman?"
Calamus was startled and didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly told the queen what he had said.
Then he said in a low voice: "The slave is also thinking, this matter of Mr. Engui is not urgent, and the empress is seeing guests at that time, so there is no need to disturb the empress because of this matter."
The queen was indeed meeting guests at the time, but what she saw was just an old lady in the palace. In order to let the fourth elder brother get news from the back house, the queen had exhausted her mind and finally found someone who was famous for her health. I just wanted to see my mother, but I didn't expect that Mr. Engui would come, and I was dismissed by Chang Pu with two or three words.
Normally, the empress would not pursue these matters, and might even praise Calamus for his swift action, but now that something like this happened, the empress felt a little unhappy.
"No matter what, such a thing should be reported to me, and now you are my master!"
The Queen's words were very cold, and Calamus knelt down on the ground when he heard it: "I dare not, and my slave has exceeded the rules, so please punish me!"
The queen held back her anger, thinking that this matter should not be made a big deal, and that most of the people operating here were the noble concubine, and she couldn't tell the noble concubine to laugh at her, so she finally said coldly: "You will be fined for three months. Monthly example, start today to take care of the flowers and trees."
After hearing these words, Calamus' heart became cold, and he finally climbed to the inner room, and now he is back before liberation!
She couldn't help but hate the benefactor in her heart. It's not a good time to come, but that's the time to come!
But at this moment, she didn't dare to say a word, so she could only accept the punishment respectfully.
Watching the calamus go out, the queen's eyes were heavy, and she said to Liu Xu after a long time: "Choose someone smart outside to serve you."
Liu Xu agreed, but she was a little happy in her heart. Calamus has gone out. In the future, her family should be the only one in the inner room, and the empress should assign those errands that show her face to her.
……
At noon, Mr. Engui was invited by the queen to go to Tiandi Family Spring.
The benefactor felt a little apprehensive, for fear that the queen might not be looking for her.
But thinking about the Queen's cold treatment during this period, Enguiren felt that he was doing the right thing. For a while, two thoughts were fighting in Enguiren's mind, and Enguiren became more and more uneasy.
In the end, when they arrived at the queen's palace, Engui found that the queen was extraordinarily gentle to her, so he smiled and told her about himself.
"It's also because I've been so busy these past few days that I didn't have any scruples about it. I didn't expect that this screwdriver slave would be so bold that he would actually bully you. Don't worry, it won't happen again in the future."
Mr. Engui was dizzy from what the queen said, and suddenly felt that the queen was also difficult to do, and the queen should not be blamed for this matter.
After finishing speaking, the queen gave the nobleman some jewelry as compensation.
"I used to wear these jewelry a lot, you just take it, and treat it as my compensation for the grievance you have suffered this time." The queen's face was soft.
Engui felt a little grateful for a while, and almost swore to be loyal to the queen in the future.
Fortunately, the magpie behind her tugged on her sleeve at this moment, and Engui came back to her senses.
She has voted for the imperial concubine now, if she changes her mind again, I'm afraid neither side will be able to tolerate her.
This is what the magpie told her before, and the benefactor finally remembered this matter, and hurriedly lowered his head and refused: "Your Majesty, the words are serious, and these matters are all due to the lack of dedication of the subordinates. I can't blame your Majesty. The so-called apology Even concubines can't bear the burden of language, and concubines dare not accept these things."
Hearing this, the queen felt a little angry for no reason.
I have already talked to her in a good voice, but I didn't expect her to be so ungrateful.
In fact, from the very beginning, the queen felt a little annoyed by her kindness.
It was just a few perfunctory words by the servant, but he was so arrogant, and he couldn't wait for a day, so he went directly to the imperial concubine, and made her lose face as well.
Today, being able to call her over to talk better, the queen considers herself to be the most benevolent, since she is so ignorant, why should she condescend to a little nobleman.
Thinking of this, the queen's face froze, and said lightly: "Since Mr. Engui speaks like this, then I can't say anything else. If you have nothing to do, go back first. I'm a little tired."
Seeing the queen's change of face, the benefactor was also a little uneasy, but thinking about what the magpie said before, the benefactor didn't dare to say any more, so he could only stand up, salute and leave, and went out sullenly.
Seeing the embarrassment of the benefactor, the queen sneered, since the concubine wants something that is not on the table, then give it to her. This also shows the noble concubine's heart, and she really can't get things done.
……
Si Ning heard that the Queen had called Engui to talk, but she was not worried. The reason why she stood up for Engui was because she felt sorry for her, and on the other hand, she was just taking a leisurely move. Can you It doesn't matter what happens.
Moreover, the queen's city will not wear small shoes for Engui because of this matter. It can be said that Engui's situation is better than before. Engui, not to mention that behind Engui, there is himself.
Thinking of this, Si Ning smiled, and asked when San Fujin would come over today, and she couldn't help but feel a little happy when she heard that she came here after dinner.
The two twins are just having fun, and Si Ning also likes to see them.
……
Erfujin Guerjia vomited faintly in the room.
The whole person was leaning on the couch, looking very weak.
And the maid in front of her gave her a worried expression: "But if you want to find the imperial doctor, Fujin's embarrassment is too severe."
Er Fujin shook his head: "Bring over the candied fruit that Er Niang asked to bring into the palace today, I think it tastes good after eating it."
Hearing this, the court lady's face flashed with joy: "The candied fruit is so sour, but Fujin eats it well, so it can be seen that this baby is an elder brother."
Guerjia gave a wry smile, at this point, she no longer cared about the difference between Elder Brother and Princess.
Thinking of this, Guarjia changed the subject: "Is there any news from the family today?"
The goddess of the palace straightened her expression, and then said it in a low voice.
It's news, but it's just some words of advice, so that Guarjia can relax and take good care of himself.
But the last sentence of Guerjia was a little puzzled.
"You said, the relationship between the second elder brother and the second elder brother has been close these few days?"
The maid was stunned, then nodded again: "Yes, the messenger said that the second elder brother always went to talk to the second master, and the second master also heard a lot of news about Fujin from the second elder brother, and knew that Fujin was having a hard time recently. Only then did the old lady make some candied fruit you like and send them in."
Guarjia frowned deeply, he knew what kind of person the second elder brother was.
This person has no profit and can't wait to get so close to her second brother all of a sudden, does he have any intentions?
Thinking of the second brother's errand, Guerjia only felt that this matter was unusual.
After thinking for a while, she finally said: "Next time, if there is news from the family, you must tell the family to let the second elder brother work well, and don't always hang out with the second elder brother."
Hearing this, the court lady also changed her face: "Does Fujin think there is something wrong?"
Mrs. Guarjia shook her head: "I can't say, but the second elder brother is moody and narrow-minded, so he is not the master."
The maid almost died of fright when she heard these words, she hurriedly knelt down on the ground, unable to utter a word.
But Guerjia didn't look at her, just kept silent for a long time, and then said: "It's fine for me to fall into it alone, if the second brother and the others fall into it again, then I will die beyond redemption."
The palace maid knelt in her place, not daring to say a word, and the room was completely silent.
