Chapter 151 From now on, the little thief belongs to him
Zhang Defa was shocked again.
According to the rules of the palace, concubines with low status cannot live in the main hall of the palace, and most of the remaining beautiful ladies have to be dispersed and moved to other side halls.
But the emperor arranged it this way. Although people still live in the side hall, in fact, the entire palace only houses such a concubine, which is equivalent to occupying the entire palace. It is still a palace with a good location and configuration. It is not a concubine, but it is better than a concubine.
style.
And he specially trimmed the flowers and plants and transplanted the trees. This is the only one in the palace, so you can imagine the honor and favor.
After Zhang Defa received the order, he secretly thought in horror as to how the wind would blow in the palace in the future. Now it was completely clear. No concubine could be as popular as this new beauty.
The division of status in the palace is slightly different from that of the previous dynasties. Beauties are ranked in the fifth rank, followed by talented, permanent, and promised women, and the lowest are Cai Nu; above them are Jieyu, Zhaoyi, concubines, and concubines.
The concubine and the queen.
Being named a beauty is already a high status for a little show girl. Generally, talents are awarded in the draft, such as Chang Zai and Yao.
The emperor has only been on the throne for three years. For the first time, the harem and palace are still relatively wealthy. It is nothing for a beauty to occupy a palace, but won't there be drafts in the future?
And what do the other concubines who entered the palace think, their eyes would be so hot that they would ooze pus.
In all these years, Zhang Defa was surprised to see such a doting concubine in the emperor's house for the first time.
Regarding the concubines in the harem and the other newly selected beautiful women, Yuchi Gong treated them like outsiders, following the rules and not bothering to put in any extra thought.
The only things that made him worry more were the meritorious officials in the court and those who had committed crimes.
As for the little thief, he made an exception.
Not only that, after Yu Chigong found out the little thief's life experience, he reprimanded Wu Fang'er's father Wu Zhen in court for spoiling his concubine and destroying his wife. His morals were corrupt and he was specially kept under observation.
It frightened Wu Fang'er's father, a sixth-grade official who was not even qualified to attend court meetings, to kneel at the entrance of the Ministry of Industry and Commune's office and listen to the holy teachings, and broke out in a cold sweat.
He somehow offended this giant Buddha and got the honor. Everyone in the world knew about his bad things. After hearing the holy teaching, he shook his legs and asked for leave without stopping to go back and sell his concubine.
Because of this incident, Wu Fang'er's mother breathed out a sigh of relief, as if she was elated, and the Wu family suddenly became arrogant.
The other ministers at the court were all frightened after hearing this. Others could not see clearly, but they, old-timers, could clearly see that the emperor was not interested in drinking. He was clearly reprimanding the sixth-rank officials, but in fact he was beating them.
The corruption case in the Ministry of War is currently in full swing, with many courtiers on the list of having their families confiscated and exterminated. Almost the entire Ministry of War has been investigated and rectified from top to bottom.
Combined with the small things of letting the concubines work in the fields and reprimanding the sixth-rank officials for their bad morals, the sum of these things shows the emperor's determination to rectify the Chao Gang, Chao Ji Chaofeng.
From then on, the courtiers clamped their tails between their legs and acted in a low-key manner, not daring to get into trouble. They spent more nights with their head wives, and allowed their family members to farm more, imitating the harem and experiencing the hardships of farming.
The foreign spies reported these developments back to the flying pigeons, and the whole clan was shocked. Emperor Yuchi made a bold statement about trying the divine crossbow, and then rectified the court affairs. After the internal affairs of the court were sorted out, the next step would be to recruit a large number of external troops.
So envoys were sent out one after another to avoid misunderstanding.
The person behind the Ministry of War embezzlement case was also shocked. He summoned his staff day and night to speculate on Yu Chigong's intentions. He was so anxious that his hair fell out all night long. When he accidentally discovered the figure of the Internal Security Department in his territory, he killed several people in a row in one day.
Order, no matter how hard it is, we must prevent him from being traced.
No one believed it. Reprimanding Wu Zhen was just Yu Chigong trying to vent his anger on Lihua, although he was wrongly targeted.
These are all things for later, let’s get back to the present.
Yuchi Gong took time out of his busy schedule to decide on the names of people, thinking that he had made good arrangements for people's sake.
When he thought that the little thief was his from now on, his heart felt hot and he had a strange feeling.
That feeling was so wonderful, it was something he had never experienced before. No one had ever made him feel like this. The little thief did it.
For the first time in these days, Yu Chigong smiled slightly and glanced at the draft list from beginning to end in a good mood.
When he saw Wu Dingbang's daughter, Wu Li, he recognized that she was the beautiful girl he specially selected to keep.
Wu Dingbang was a capable minister, and it was a great achievement to investigate the corruption case in the Ministry of War. No matter how his daughter performed in the draft, she should be given special favor.
This is the reason why Yuchi Gong specifically selected her. The other beautiful women he specifically selected are more or less in the same situation.
However, when Yu Chigong saw the name "Wuli" for the first time, he had a strange feeling. Now that he saw it again, that strange feeling did not disappear and still existed.
Yuchi Gong couldn't figure out where the strange thing came from. Xu was the word "pear" in his name, which reminded him of the little thief's favorite pear blossom.
He added the status and palace where they lived to the remaining beautiful women on the list one by one.
How to arrange the status, Yuchi Gong had already considered it in his mind, all talented people, always there, agreed, the status is closely related to Xiu Nu's father in the previous dynasty.
In Yuchi Gong's view, the daughter of a courtier who has served as a minister should have a higher status, while the daughter of a courtier who has performed mediocrely and has no special achievements should naturally have a lower status.
Is it possible that a show girl can get a high status just by virtue of her trivial performance in the harem? What a joke!
Although Yuchi Gong had issued a decree for farming, the meaning conveyed in the decree was that beautiful women who could not endure hardship and performed poorly would be directly expelled from the palace and were not worthy of staying.
Everything done under the imperial edict is the duty of all people in the world, and the status of a beautiful woman is not determined based on this performance.
Of course, to Yuchi Gong, the little thief is different. Giving him advice and suggestions is all merit. Although people do not do so willingly, the facts cannot be erased.
Most importantly, he is willing to give.
With just one stroke of his pen, Yuchi Gong quickly determined the positions of the other show girls.
As for the palaces arranged, Yuchi Gong didn't put much thought into it. He asked Zhang Defa if he knew which side palaces were still empty, so he wrote them down casually.
It made no difference to him where the other beautiful ladies lived, and Yuchi Gong had no intention of going.
When writing about pear blossoms, Yuchi Gong paused and wrote Tingliyuan by mistake. Maybe it was because of the pear in the name, or maybe it was because of the strange feeling he had when he saw Wuli's name.
Zhang Defa hesitated to speak. Although the Tingli Courtyard is much larger than the ordinary palace, it is located on the edge of the harem, next to the Imperial Garden. Many of the wing rooms and side palaces are in disrepair, and some areas in the courtyard are overgrown with weeds and uninhabited.
It is under repair and belongs to a semi-deserted area.
Moreover, there is still a concubine living there who is not easy to get along with. She has offended the emperor in the past and was specially sent there to avoid being an eyesore.
I'm afraid this beautiful girl will have a hard time in the future...
After Yuchi Gong made the decision, he sent someone to hand the list back to the Queen Mother with the message: "I have initially decided on the position of the show girl. If the Queen Mother has different wishes, just change it."
Yu Chigong: I have good intentions towards the little thief
Lihua: Hehehehe... Yes, leave me to open up wasteland, I thank you.
Wu Xue: Wow (that deserted yard with a lot of weeds is so fun)
