Force a good concubine

After the beginning of autumn, the wind at night became cooler day by day, and it started to rain sporadically when the lamps were held, and gradually became heavier at night.Cui Chengxiu came all the way back from Rijingmen and Yuejingmen. Cui Sanshun in the duty room had prepared hot tea early, helped him take off his outer oil coat, and smiled flatteringly at him: "Master, one layer of autumn rain and one layer of coolness, your this Do your duty, there is really nothing to say!"

"Go, go, deal with me with those stupid things, why not think about how to trip up that kid surnamed Wei!" Cui Chengxiu waved her hand like chasing flies, and sat down at the Eight Immortals table by herself. Seeing several other young eunuchs looking at him timidly, they felt uncomfortable while drinking tea: the majestic chief executive has been reduced to a place where he has to wait for his apprentices to please and flatter him, the fallen phoenix is ​​not as good as a chicken!Why did he lose his hand and give the blame to that kid Wei Fengchun?

"Master," Cui Sanshun approached his knee, and asked him in a low voice, "I'll be on duty tomorrow, what should I say when I see you?"

"Didn't I teach you last night?" Cui Chengxiu glared at him, "When the time comes, I'll bring the tea in. If you think the young master thinks it's good, just say something like, 'there is only one or two leaves of Yangxian tea left in the imperial tea room. Too much', if the young master thinks of Mrs. Gu, you can continue the conversation, otherwise, you can find a way to add another sentence, "Today's tribute exam will release the rankings. How many people are waiting to choose son-in-law and wife?" I don’t know how Miss Xu and Miss Li are doing?’ Do I have to say that twice?”

"Master," Cui Sanshun was still hesitant, "the disturbance in the palace was not good. If the empress dowager knows what we are like, I'm afraid—"

"The sky is falling and I'm here, what's wrong with you?" Cui Chengxiu hated iron for being weak, scolded in a low voice, and then taught, "What do you understand? Miss Gu is only nine times taller, no, it's nine stones, and she has to go up anyway For the list, the young master read the tribute list, did he not think about it? Seeing that the palace examination is about to meet, we as slaves should help pave the way first!"

Before he could continue talking, a young eunuch came in through the curtain, his whole body was wet from the rain, and he bowed towards Cui Chengxiu: "Young master summoned me for questioning in Xinuang Pavilion."

Cui Chengxiu stood up jerkily, her heart bursting with joy: The emperor didn't rest for four o'clock, but he just couldn't let Miss Gu go!Wei Fengchun came out from the copper samovar on the west side of the hall. It looked like he had just poured a bowl of strong tea. He grinned his teeth in bitterness, and gave Cui Chengxiu a hard look. Cui Chengxiu didn't care at all—even if the emperor didn't send him, look at this kid This look is worth it!At the same time, I still feel contemptuous in my heart, I can't survive the whole night, and I want to climb up, isn't that wishful thinking!

On the corridor, he untied his oil coat and handed it to the eunuch on duty. He straightened his clothes neatly, put on a smiley face, and took the tea tray from Cui Sanshun into Xinuang Pavilion with a smile on his face. Put it on the imperial case: "Staying up late is the most harmful to the body fluid, young master moistens the throat first."

The emperor seemed to be getting up again after taking a rest. The bright yellow silk robe was only covered with a sky blue satin gown without a belt. Click on the imperial case: "August [-]th Mid-Autumn Festival, I sent you to Cishou Temple to give alms, what did the aunt there say?"

"Back to my master." Cui Chengxiu was overjoyed, but she didn't dare to show it on her face, she only smiled slightly, "Those aunts are very cunning, they just said that the three young ladies met an old friend who was acquainted and moved to live together." No. There is no other word. The slaves went to Baoguo Temple again, but the monks said that the teachers of the two young ladies, Xu and Li, happened to be in the capital, and they happened to meet each other when they went to the nunnery to worship, so they went together."

"Teacher? What kind of person?"

"It is said to be a lady in her forties. She is dressed like an ordinary official in the capital, but her behavior is exactly the same as Miss Gu." Cui Chengxiu said, suddenly her heart skipped a beat, she might not have met in the mountain gate that day. That one?The more he thought about it, the more he felt like it, so he reported back to the emperor, "I seem to have met such a person before. At that time, I was still thinking, if I stay with Miss Gu, I will be like a family with this style!"

"Is that really the case?" The emperor thought for a while, "I remember that in the first year of Tianshou's life, Luan Yisi inspected and promoted several educators from various prefectures to various ministries in Beijing. It must have entered Beijing at that time. Rui Niang also mentioned, If it is said that her enlightenment master is also in Beijing, then it must be her."

Nowadays, the scholars first pay attention to teachers and students, and second to the same year. The teacher lives in the student's house. It is a customary custom for students to live in the teacher's house. Luan Yisi checks the files to see who the Wuzhou edict was and what official position he is now, and then check Gu Yuan's resume to see if it matches. Where is it, I will come back early, and you will talk back."

"Yes." Cui Chengxiu responded energetically, went out of the hall and turned back to the Rijing Gate, went to the on-duty room of the Luan Yi Bureau to collect the pair of cards, and went to the opposite side of the Luan Yi Division's on-duty room to check the files.This was a very simple mission, and after a while, two female clerks came out with a booklet in their hands, and they compared each other: "Wuzhou taught Cheng Su, who went to Beijing in July of the first year of Tianshou, and now he has just been promoted to the right-hand officer of the Ministry of Punishment."

"It's her." The clerk next to him took out a blank document and copied it word by word according to the format. The female officer in charge found out Gu Yuan's resume again, but this time he hesitated, "Gu Yuan made friends with gangsters and behaved badly. The Ministry of Criminal Justice informed me yesterday that the fame and fame have been revoked, and they are only allowed to leave the capital at sunrise, so is this resume in the palace?"

"What?" Cui Chengxiu was taken aback, took a look, and secretly complained in his heart: If the emperor started arguing with the ministers because of this, ten of his own heads would not be enough to cut off!Why is it that this little lady Gu, no one else cheated her, but only him?

Cui Chengxiu blamed herself, bit the bullet and took her resume and went back to Qinghe Hall. When she saw Ming Huang Yuyan coming from the end of the corridor from a distance, she hurriedly retreated to the side of the road with her hands down.Afraid of getting into trouble, he intended to reply later, but unexpectedly the emperor had already seen him, stomped his feet lightly, and the eight eunuchs carrying sedan chairs immediately stopped together, motionless.

"Can it be found out?"

"Yes." Cui Chengxiu was ruthless, and presented the resume in his arms to the emperor.The emperor flipped through it with his hand, suddenly fixed his eyes, read the thin white cotton paper several times, and suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "How courageous!"

This sentence frightened Cui Chengxiu, and she tried to persuade the emperor: "Young master, this matter is still unclear, and there may be something inside. How about, slaves go and investigate again?"

"Take this and go to the Luanyi Bureau to get the right card." The emperor took off a jade pendant from his waist and threw it to him from the imperial chariot. !"

"Master—"

"Don't worry." The emperor held the white tissue paper in his palm, and sneered slightly, "They are waiting for me to get angry, as long as I speak up for her, she is beguiling me, and she is misbehaving--good minister, good plan! "

"Young master!" Cui Chengxiu didn't care anymore, knelt down and kowtowed desperately, "This servant is going out of the palace to look after the young lady, let's see—"

"Nothing to see." The smile on the emperor's lips on the imperial chariot became more and more ethereal, "I know what's going on. You go to the Ministry of Punishments first, and then inform the Imperial Academy. I have a few political affairs that I don't know. When the court meeting ends, Invite them to speak with the Ministry of Punishment!"

Seeing the imperial chariot meandering away, Cui Chengxiu knelt on the cold ground with a bitter face, and his heart was also cold: the emperor was so angry, seeing that the matter was out of control, and the ministers settled the accounts afterwards, can he still survive?

Miss Gu looks like a good-looking person, why does she keep getting into trouble?Cui Chengxiu kowtowed to the west several times on the corridor, clasped his hands together and prayed: "Grandpa Buddha Mingjian, this little lady Gu can't be messed with, now that I've changed my past, please forgive me this time! "
