Queen Mother Yu has been suffering from idleness many times recently, and today she made up her mind to disgust Xie Mingxi to the end.
Xie Mingxi sneered in her heart, and deliberately showed a look of gratitude on her face: "The mother-in-law loves the house and the birds. My daughter-in-law is very grateful to her mother-in-law for taking care of her. However, my daughter-in-law's brother is not even a scholar, so how can he be qualified to be awarded a sixth-rank official status?
?”
"The rumors about the Xie family have just subsided. If there is another one like this, I'm afraid someone with ulterior motives will take advantage of it to make a big fuss."
"My daughter-in-law is the daughter of the Xie family, and more importantly, the wife of the Sheng family. Now she is the queen of the middle palace. Everything should be considered for the emperor and for the sake of the dignity of the Tian family."
"I beg my mother to take back her life."
Xie Mingxi's sweet voice kept echoing in Xie Yuanting's ears.
The anger that Xie Yuanting had barely suppressed suddenly surged up.
This is Xie Mingxi!
When we met in the past, we hated each other and hated each other. It was precisely because of her that he was rejected by his father, broke his right leg and rushed back to his old house. He was forced to marry a fierce and evil woman and lived a miserable life.
Unspeakable.
Now the Queen Mother kindly wanted to reward him with an official position, but she actually blocked it!
Xie Yuanting's head, which had been hanging low, finally raised it. He thought he had no trace but actually gave Xie Mingxi a vicious look.
Mrs. Sun felt nervous, fearing that Xie Yuanting would talk nonsense, so she gave Xie Yuanting a vicious look.
This is the harbinger before Sun takes action every time.
Xie Yuanting knelt down with a plop purely out of his body's instinctive reaction.
Sun: "..."
Everyone: "..."
Even Xie Mingxi looked over with some unexpected surprise.
Xie Yuanting suddenly knelt down. Which song was he singing?
Being stared at by dozens of pairs of eyes, no matter how thick-skinned Xie Yuanting was, he couldn't help it, and his face turned red behind his ears.
Fortunately, Xie Yuanting was not stupid enough, so he reluctantly found an excuse for his stupid behavior: "What the Queen Mother said is that common people are immoral and incompetent, and they dare not be loved by the Queen Mother. I beg the Queen Mother to take back her life."
Mrs. Sun also knelt down and said, "I beg the Queen Mother to take back my life!"
Empress Dowager Yu glanced at Xie Yuanting's calm face and said with a smile: "Master Xie, the Ai family has given you a sixth-rank official position, but you said you don't dare to accept it. The Ai family wants you to go to the Imperial Manor and get an errand."
, are you willing?"
The Imperial Mansion, as Queen Mother Yu said, is the private property of the royal family. Working as a servant in the Imperial Mansion is not an official position, but is better than an official position. You will look respectable wherever you go.
Zhilan's father and brother were all working as servants in the Imperial Manor.
Such a big piece of cake suddenly fell in front of Xie Yuanting, who had been famine for many years. Xie Yuanting felt ecstatic in his heart, and without thinking, he kowtowed and thanked him: "The common people are willing, thank you Queen Mother."
Xie Mingxi: "..."
She should have expected that Empress Dowager Yu would never let go of such a useful chess piece!
When word of this incident spread, it immediately became a good talk. Empress Dowager Yu took care of her daughter-in-law's eldest brother and arranged for him to work as an errand in the imperial palace. Such a kind and loving mother-in-law!
The rumors of discord between the Emperor and the Queen Mother will soon be put to rest.
This light and fluttering move not only created a blockage for her, but also relieved her.
What a shrewd and sophisticated Queen Mother Yu!
…
In this game of chess, Xie Mingxi was defeated unexpectedly and suffered a heavy loss.
In fact, as a daughter-in-law fighting against her mother-in-law, she was inherently at a disadvantage. After entering the palace, Xie Mingxi used her strength and tried every means to fight evenly with Empress Dowager Yu.
Empress Dowager Yu has been in charge of the palace for decades, how can she be an easy person? One move after another, if you are not careful, you will fall into Empress Dowager Yu's scheme.
Xiao Yuhan glimpsed the secret and glanced at Xie Mingxi worriedly.
Xie Mingxi smiled nonchalantly: "My mother always thinks of her daughter-in-law and her brother, and my daughter-in-law is also very grateful."
Empress Dowager Yu had the upper hand and was quite relieved. She smiled and said: "It's such a small thing, it's not worth mentioning." Then she opened her mouth and told Zhilan: "Pass on the Ai family's oral instructions and thank the eldest son for coming to the palace as an errand from tomorrow. For the time being, follow Liao.
Steward, let Steward Liao give you more guidance and care."
Zhilan's surname was Liao before she entered the palace.
Guanshi Liao is Zhilan’s elder brother. Zhilan’s biological father is called Guanshi Liao.
Empress Dowager Yu intentionally or unintentionally emphasized the words "teaching and caring". Zhilan immediately understood and responded respectfully.
Xie Yuanting was so excited and happy that he kowtowed again to express his gratitude.
Empress Dowager Yu smiled gently and said: "Thank you, Mr. Eldest, because your legs and feet are inconvenient, so you don't have to kneel all the time. It's rare for you and your wife to enter the palace. Follow the empress to Fulin Palace and have a talk."
Who wants to say anything personal to him (her)?
At this moment, Xie Yuanting and Xie Mingxi had a rare understanding, and at the same time, they snorted coldly in their hearts.
…
After a stick of incense, Fulin Palace.
Xie Mingxi walked a little faster than usual today.
Xie Yuanting and Sun Shi followed behind. Sun Shi could walk without any problems, but Xie Yuanting was lame on one leg, which made walking quite awkward and awkward.
After entering Fulin Palace, Xie Mingxi only kept Congyu and Fuyu, and the other maids withdrew.
Cong Yu and Fu Yu were both maids from the Xie Mansion, and they knew very well the temperament of the eldest son Xie. They each stood beside their master and looked at him warily.
As expected, without the outsiders, Xie Yuanting lost his respect and humility, and his eyes were full of evil, staring straight at Xie Mingxi, who was the queen.
When he opened his mouth, he was full of resentment and anger: "Xie Mingxi! You just can't see that I am half good. The Queen Mother wants to give me an official position, why are you blocking it?"
"I finally understand. You wish that I would be trampled into the dust forever and never stand up again!"
"You are so mean and vicious! God is so blind that he made you the queen!"
Xie Mingxi sneered: "I haven't seen you for several years, but you are still as stupid as before. The Queen Mother promoted you to create trouble for me. From now on, I will use you as a chess piece to bring bad luck to me, the Queen."
"If you were smarter, you would have known the pros and cons and quit your job."
"It's a pity that all you have in your mind is flour and water. If you move it a little, it turns into paste. When you hear the word Huangzhuang, you forget about it. You swallow the poisonous bait in one bite."
"You can't figure out how I will die in the future."
When it comes to being mean, Xie Yuanting's rank is too low, making it difficult for him to impress Xie Mingxi.
Xie Yuanting was hurt by Xie Mingxi's sharp and mean words. Anger arose in his heart and evil grew in his courage. He opened his mouth and cursed: "Xie Mingxi! Don't underestimate me!"
"Let me tell you, I have decided on this job. Not only do I want to enter the imperial palace, but I will also follow the Queen Mother's lead everywhere in the future. I want everyone to know that I, my biological brother, will not look towards you, let everyone see.
Your joke..."
The anger in Xie Mingxi's eyes gathered little by little.
Congyu Fuyu, who is familiar with Xie Mingxi's temper, knows that Mr. Xie is going to be in trouble!
At this moment, Sun suddenly stretched out his hand and pinched Xie Yuanting's ear hard.
