Chapter 17 His Majesty the Emperor in the Flower Cage
Chapter 17 His Majesty the Emperor in the Big Flower Cage
"The gold-woven satin gifted by the Queen Mother is so beautiful, why is the talent not happy at all?" Bi Xin stroked the dazzling satin and was puzzled.
At the moment, Wen Xiaotu is only worried about the small kitchen she missed! Where can she find the time to appreciate these satins?
All he could say was: "My appearance is completely ruined, so it would be a waste to give me such good clothes."
Bi Xin said uneasily: "It's all my fault for talking too much, little master. Don't take it to heart."
Wen Xiaotu smiled and ordered: "Pick two brightly colored horses and send them to Jingyi Palace and Zhaohua Palace." - Concubine Lin Xian and Xin Zhaorong are the only two principals in the harem, so they should be on good terms.
For the best, especially the virtuous concubine, she still holds the power of the harem.
Bi Xin said "yes", quickly picked out four pieces of bright red and purple gold-woven satin, and asked Little Yuan Bao to run errands with her.
Hongguo stepped forward quickly and whispered: "Cai Ren, Xiaoqian has been shrinking his head these days, Cai Ren would be better off getting rid of him as soon as possible."
Wen Xiaotu groaned, this young eunuch... The Helan family has been taken back to the Hou Mansion by the Lord of Jiarong County, and Fang Jieyu has also been imprisoned in the Bathing Buddha Hall. She should take care of this rip-off
Something.
"Tell him to come in!" Wen Xiaotu put down the tea cup in her hand lightly.
"yes!"
After a while, Hongguo led Xiao Qianzi, who was hunched over, in. Xiao Qianzi probably sensed something was wrong in the atmosphere, and couldn't help lowering his body even more, "I wonder what your orders are?"
Wen Xiaotu sneered: "I don't dare to take orders. I'm just a talented person with a damaged face. How can I dare to order Eunuch Qian?"
With such a tone, cold sweat broke out on Xiao Qianzi's forehead. He knelt down with a thud and said, "Master has broken this slave! I don't know what I did wrong. Please tell me clearly!"
Wen Xiaotu didn't bother to waste words on such a young man, so he said coldly: "My temple is small and cannot accommodate a big Buddha like Eunuch Qian. Eunuch, you should go to the Buddha Bathing Hall to join your real master!"
Xiao Qianzi's face instantly turned gray, and Wen Cairen really knew it!
Although Fang Jieyu claimed that she asked herself to pray for the Queen Mother, it was clear that rumors that Fang Jieyu had poisoned Wen Cairen's appearance had just spread. Fang Jieyu went to the Buddha Bathing Hall and was escorted there by the eunuchs in front of the emperor.
It's obvious that Fang Jieyu has fallen out of favor and been imprisoned! Xiao Qianzi has been in panic these past few days, but he didn't expect that she was exposed after all!
Xiaoqianzi is just a rough eunuch with no money and no backing. Otherwise, he would not have been bribed by Fang Jieyu's small favor. Now Wen Caieren did not charge him with any crime and sent him to Yongxiang Prison.
Have mercy.
Xiao Qianzi didn't say much. He kowtowed twice and said, "I will only obey your master's instructions."
Seeing that the little money man neither argued nor resisted, Wen Xiaotu thought to himself that this would save him a lot of trouble.
Xiao Qianzi walked away in despair, and Hongguo sighed, "We ran away a lot earlier, but now Yanqingtang has even fewer people. Talented man, why don't you go to Yongxiang and call for a few more people."
Wen Xiaotu didn't think there were too many people, but then he thought about it. At least two eunuchs had to take turns to do the night watch, and the cleaning inside and outside here was not easy, so he said: "Take twenty taels of silver to do some planning."
You have to spend money again!
The monthly income is only 10 taels, so negative income this month is really not a problem.
With the money in hand, Yongxiang sent two eunuchs, one named Xiao Jinzi and the other Xiao Zongzi. Together with the little Yuanbao she had here, it sounded like she was rich.
Oh, by the way, she, a talented little mistress, has to give rewards to these two new eunuchs, and her wallet has shrunk again!
After the shower, the weather became much warmer again. Bi Xin held a pot of orchids that did not bloom and placed them on the flower table near the window. When she saw her mistress leaning on the beauty's couch, flipping through the account books and frowning, she smiled.
He stepped forward and said, "Talent, it's sunny outside today. How about I serve you and help you go out to get some fresh air?"
Wen Xiaotu calculated on her fingers that after time travel, apart from a trip to the bottom of Taihan Pond, she had only been to the Queen Mother's Yi Nian Palace. It was really boring to stay like this all the time.
In modern times, she can live at home because she has computers, mobile phones, and the Internet. In this era, there is not even any decent entertainment. The mobile phone and power bank left in the mustard space have long been exhausted by her play.
So I had no choice but to look through my books, only to get more and more headaches. Expenses were far greater than my income, and my savings kept shrinking. It was really heart-wrenching.
"Hey, let's go out for a walk."
Bi Xin quickly got her a Yunluo shawl and put it on, then gently buttoned the gilt plum blossom buckle, "Although it's already summer, the morning wind is still a bit cold."
These days, being served by Hong Guo Bi Xinyi with hands, rice, and open mouth, Wen Xiaotu was almost ready to become a useless person.
To the northwest of Taihan Pond, there are more than a dozen small palaces scattered in an orderly manner. This is the Beigong area where low-level concubines live. There are no majestic and spacious palaces here, but they are exquisite and elegant, especially the scenery beside Taihan Pond.
The best one, with pavilions, waterside pavilions and rockery verandahs, looks like a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, which is quite impressive. However, she had just visited the bottom of Taihan Pond a while ago, so she went to walk in the small garden to the west.
The West Garden is a bit remote, with few people coming here on weekdays, so it is naturally quiet.
What Wen Xiaotu pictures is tranquility.
And Emperor Mingzhao also happened to like peace and quiet.
When Emperor Ming Zhao was free, he liked to drive away the palace attendants and find a secluded place by himself to quiet his ears for a while.
Bi Xin said with a smile: "Although this West Garden is not as lively and lively as the Imperial Garden, the Lingxiao in front is so lush that the pavilion is almost airtight!"
Ming Zhao: Aren’t you talking about my place?
"You might as well go and have a rest in the pavilion." Bi Xin said with a smile.
Talented person?! Ming Zhao frowned, the only talented people in my harem are the Luo family and... the Wen family.
Emperor Mingzhao picked up the scattered branches of Lingxiao flowers with his hands, and he saw a woman with a veil on her face and simple and elegant clothes. Isn't she Wen?
How could it be such a coincidence? The emperor frowned, why did Mr. Wen come to the West Garden in such a good way?
The emperor had no doubts about Wen's spying on the Holy Spirit. A young man with little talent was not capable of this.
Then I heard footsteps approaching, and the master and servant were talking and laughing.
Wen Xiaotu looked at the pavilion covered with Lingxiao flowers and said with a smile: "No one has pruned it. The beautiful pavilion has been twisted into a big flower cage by Lingxiao!"
His Majesty the Emperor in the big cage:...
At this moment, the emperor heard the footsteps suddenly stop.
"Concubine Wen has met the Concubine Xian!"
Emperor Mingzhao's face turned cold. It was nine out of ten that Wen's appearance here was just a coincidence. But if Concubine Xian came here, it might not be as simple as a coincidence!
Sure enough, Concubine Xian's voice rang in the emperor's ears: Didn't he say that the emperor came to the West Garden? Why was there no one there?
Emperor Mingzhao: I am in the big flower cage in front of you!
