Lihua knew immediately that this thing was a good thing, a big good thing, almost the same as a military medal.
She squinted her eyes, muttered the word "gongzhang", and began to make up her mind, secretly asking Zhichun.
But what really made her take action was after she was named a beauty and given the opportunity to live in Tingliyuan.
Lihua realized that she could not sit still and wait for death, and urgently needed to find a way out of the situation. However, under the current situation, trying to push upwards could easily backfire, so she took the wrong path and started the road to the palace.
The days of being a concubine are filled with nothing to do and a lot of leisure. You still get a monthly salary. If there are no fights, it is a good career to provide for the elderly.
Lihua only needs to attend the morning meeting in the palace every morning - go to Zhuangning Palace to say hello, and the rest of the time is almost all to herself.
As for Lu Jieyu's trouble-making, it's not worth mentioning to her at all.
Lihua took Zhichun with her, and after completing her daily greeting tasks, she started to act like a detective, asking which company or bureau had the imperial seal.
After inquiring, I will do analysis, strategy and research when I come back.
She was so busy with Zhichun every day that she never touched the ground. Every time she studied the conditions for extracting a palace seal, she went out to sweep it, hit it with one hit, and quickly escaped.
Two palace seals, three, four...
Soon the chief officials of various departments and bureaus in the palace discovered that those historical problems had been solved overnight.
The parties were overjoyed, went out to brag, exchanged opinions, and found out that the same person seemed to have solved the problem!
A little palace maid!!!
Gradually, the legend of a ruthless man spread among the craftsmen in the palace.
It is said that there is a little palace maid, the dragon appears first but never tail. Every time it appears, there is no warning and no pattern.
But every time you make a move, you will definitely get a palace seal, and there will never be any mistakes.
When asked about her identity, she only said that she was a little palace maid, her status was low and not worth mentioning.
Some people said that they seemed to have met this little palace maid, appearing with a new beauty.
Martha from the Weaving Bureau went crazy. She tried to catch the little palace maid, but she missed it every time.
The little palace goddess is haunted, and every time she goes, she takes him by surprise, catching him off guard.
There are unsolved problems, and I am eagerly looking forward to the arrival of the little palace maid.
Under the leadership of Lihua, Zhichun won several palace medals in a month, and Madana still didn't know who he was.
What’s going on down here hasn’t alarmed the higher-ups yet.
Lihua acted secretly and took the easy-to-grab palace seal before anyone noticed. Even Liu Sanzi and the others didn't know that the master and servant had done so many things secretly.
The three of them pull weeds, repair trees, repair roofs, pick tiles and leaks every day, and they have a full schedule.
From time to time, I have to attract Lu Jieyu’s attention, so I don’t have time.
Fortunately, the master they were working with was not stingy and distributed money according to work.
When Lihua was happily leading Zhichun to sweep away the palace seals, the eyes of the entire harem and concubines were fixed on the space between Cangchen Palace and Zhuangning Palace. They had no time to pay attention to each department, as that was all the business of slaves. p>
Seeing that one month after the general election, the emperor had not summoned any of his new concubines, the Queen Mother became anxious and sent people to urge her three times overtly and covertly, and once to find Zhang Defa.
The former Ministry of War corruption case is apparently coming to an end. Only a few people know about the inspections that should be carried out and the jailing that should be carried out.
Yuchi Gong sent people to various camps to investigate the infiltration of inferior weapons. The news returned was not optimistic. Fortunately, it was discovered early and the situation has not yet reached the worst point.
He secretly ordered the Ordnance Bureau to rush to build weapons day and night to replace the inferior weapons that had penetrated, and then ordered people to step up the development of new weapons.
Yuchi Gong knew that one day in the future, he would have to fight with the people behind the scenes. Even if the other party was unwilling, he would not agree.
Therefore, from this period onwards, he was already making arrangements, and he was also busy with court affairs, so he was extremely busy every day.
The arrest of the left minister of the Ministry of War by the Internal Security Department did not go smoothly. Fortunately, he escaped from the man behind the scenes and is still alive, which is barely good news.
On this day, Yuchi Gong dismissed the person who reported the news, and heard that the Queen Mother sent someone to bring soup, hinting that she favored the harem.
He rubbed his brows tiredly, thought for a while, and asked someone to send a message to the Queen Mother to reassure her.
Immediately afterwards, he ordered to summon the new concubines starting tomorrow, and summoned them one by one during the day under different names into the Cangchen Hall - the side hall!
Serving the piano, serving chess, serving tea, serving food, in short, it can be anything. Let Zhang Defa take care of it.
Zhang Defa was shocked when he received the order. He, he, he, he, he could do whatever he wanted? Can he still do this?
He found that Long Live Lord was really smart. He clearly had no intention of meeting those concubines, but he could develop tricks that ordinary people could not think of and deal with these things to the harem.
When Zhang Defa arranged for someone to do it, he asked a lot: "Long live Lord, is it the same at Jinghong Hall?"
Only then did Yuchi Gong remember that there was that little thief. He was so busy these days that he had no time to think about her. He could only spare some time to think about her late at night before falling asleep.
He recalled the last time the two met in the library. It was more than a month ago, but the scene was still vivid in his mind.
Yuchi Gong chuckled lightly, and made a special decision not to call the Jinghong Hall for the time being.
The little thief is special to him, and he doesn't want to call people over to hang them out.
Wait until he is free and then go see the little thief in person.
Zhang Defa took the order and retreated. When he left Cangchen Hall, a sad look appeared on his face.
This matter is difficult to handle. It was nothing in the previous dynasty. After all, the courtiers could not witness the movements in the harem with their own eyes. They could fool them by letting some rumors slip.
But in Zhuang Ning Palace, everyone has a thousand years of Taoism, so it will be difficult.
In the past, when the harem collectively cultivated the land, something big happened in the previous dynasty, so he just barely managed to hold on to it.
How to fool the Queen Mother this time?
Alas, it’s another frightening, butt-busting, life-threatening job.
Zhang Defa originally wanted to arrange them one by one according to their status, but felt that it was too deliberate and the Queen Mother could see through it at a glance.
So after much thought, he made the first arrangement for the emperor to summon Chen Cairen to serve at the table.
Chen Sisi is the niece of the Queen Mother, and she has to give her face. There is no problem with Zhang Defa's arrangement.
He sent an eunuch to deliver the message, and soon, the news that Chen Sisi was going to serve Long Live Lord for lunch the next day spread throughout the harem like it had wings.
When the Queen Mother heard the news, she felt that the emperor was really filial. Despite her busy schedule, she even summoned her concubine to have dinner with her, thinking of taking care of her face.
But it doesn't have to be like this. Although she usually takes care of her nieces and nephews from the same clan, Chen Sisi will not be able to rise in the future, and whether he will be favored or not will depend entirely on his own destiny.
The Queen Mother made it clear when Chen Sisi begged to keep her.
However, the Queen Mother was still very happy. It was good that the emperor did not summon Wu Fang'er first.
As long as it's another concubine, no matter who it is, it's fine, so as not to give Wu Fang'er too much face, and don't have to get used to being rude and unruly.
Every time when the concubine came to pay her respects in the morning, the Queen Mother felt unhappy when she saw Wu Fang'er's behavior.
She even thought about how to set rules for Wu Fang'er, but she hasn't taken any action yet.
