Hou Kun

Chapter 297
Ma Delu went back to his house in a good mood. In this damn place, he has no income, only relying on the little salary from his superiors, and the meager rewards at the New Year's Day, it's no wonder that he can cover his mouth!Ever since he heard that the former concubine and the new concubine in the palace were coming, he was very happy.

That's it, he has to abide by the rules of his ancestors, with these people chewing grain, he can earn a lot from it in a year, and with the rewards from these masters, good days will come.

It's just this Concubine Yu, with unknown origins, who is so rich, she must be currying favors!If it falls into his hands, it can be regarded as robbing the rich and giving to the poor.

He happily sat down and drank the small wine brought from below, smacked and had a good time.Side dishes and wine will be available later!Thinking of this good day, I just don't know how to be happy.After two days, I will have a vacation, and I will take a good gamble when I return to Beijing. The life here is really fading out.

There were two light knocks on the door.

It's miserable, who is looking for him now?Could it be that those new girls have some demon moths?Hey, it's not a bad thing, it's a gift of money!
He happily opened the door, but didn't recognize him at first glance.

It doesn't matter if you don't know each other, the waist badge in the palace is always recognized, and there is a shiny knife.

Na Jiu walked over by himself, sat down at the table, took a bite of the beef wrapped in lotus leaves on the table, and vomited it on the ground again.

"What the hell, such an elegant person like Master Lu, eats such an unpalatable thing?" Najiu said at one end, and scolded the guard with the knife at the other end, "Put it down quickly, don't startle Master Lu."

Ma Delu was shocked when he saw the sign first, and after thinking about it for a long time, he came up with someone.

"Then,,, master? It's the master. The slave once went to the palace to answer the question, and he has listened to your teaching, but there are many people who listened to the training with him. If you think about it, you don't recognize the slave."

It's easy to recognize.Najiu didn't look down on Ma Delu, who was fighting between the two. Now, what's the matter, please come to Huanghua Gate and have some tea?"

Madelu's scalp tingled with shock.

Every year at the autumnal equinox, eunuchs have to go to Huanghuamen for a physical examination.The eunuchs were all stabbed before entering the palace, but some of them could grow back slowly.That's why Niannian in the palace gave them another physical examination, and any extra ones had to be chopped up.

Why did Madelu hide here to guard the spirit?Just to avoid this knife.The eunuch is pitiful, he chops it cleanly, and when he is old, he can't urinate cleanly, and it drips on his body, and he smells dirty.As for him, he grew a little bit after entering the palace, and in this respect, he was much better than others.Even a woman can feel something.

For this, every year he bribed fellow villagers in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

How did the master know his secret?This is a deadly handle.

In fact, based on his bribery for medical examinations, he would not be able to be in charge, and he would have to chop it up later, and had to go to Xinzheku. In this life, he could only give Ye Xiang and clean the excrement bucket.

Ma Delu's face fell into those nine eyes, he smiled slightly, and patted a 1000 tael silver note on the table.

They are all smart people, Ma Delu hurriedly cupped his hands and bowed, "Then you are not polite, what do you want, just say, what a slave can do,,,, just can't do it,,,, definitely can, can Do it! Master, although the slave is famous for being stingy, how dare you use your money? Whenever you have a job, you are the one who thinks highly of you. Isn't this banknote a slap in the face of the slave?"

Najiu smiled, and kept the banknote. One banknote bought two lives, and it was not wronged.

It was raining continuously, and the imperial mausoleum was getting colder and colder.Although it is also regulated by the palace, there are many Hexi murals, bucket arches and double eaves, but there is no kang in the house.The delicate nobles couldn't bear it, many people were sick, and the small courtyard of Concubine Yu was full of coughing day and night, and they were so scared that they were half a mile away from her place, and no one dared to take an extra step.

Another month later, Concubine Yu's small courtyard suddenly cried loudly at night. The next day, Ma Delu moved her to a side hall with a gloomy face, and reported the letter to the top.The reply from the palace was very fast, so you can find any place in the concubine's mausoleum, and after ten days, Concubine Yu will be buried in the ground for safety.Her maid, Ya'er, went to Shang En's house—she had been with Concubine Yu for so long, and the palace didn't dare to keep her anymore.

Before Concubine Yu’s burial, only a housekeeper came to the house, burned a few pieces of paper in front of the funeral, and after crying a few times, picked out a few valuable jewelry from Ma Delu, and didn’t want the rest. After going back, the root cause of Concubine Yu and her family is over.

The first snowfall in the mountains was much earlier than that in the capital city, and snowballs fell from the sky in the emperor's mausoleum, and there were no people on the empty Shinto.The two figures walked out of the stone statue, arrived at Dahongmen, hurriedly boarded a carriage with black curtains, and left in the wind and snow.

Walking day and night, before the city gate closed at night on the second day, we walked to Fucheng Gate.

After entering the city, he got in from the alley, walked along the base of the city wall, and groped into a courtyard with three entrances.

The courtyard faces south and is very quiet.

After getting out of the car, Concubine Jade Cuiwei raised her head and looked at the door of her house. The door was plain and clean, just like the homes of ordinary people in Sijiu City. The Qingshui gate was opened on the street. During the national funeral, two beige silks were simply hung Lanterns, inconspicuous at all.

After entering the door, there is a circle of filament lamps in the corridor, which illuminates the courtyard clearly and refreshingly.There is a pomegranate tree with luxuriant branches in the courtyard. The small leaves on the top of the tree are about to fall, but it reminds her of the joy of fruit-bearing dense branches in summer.

The two of them were led to the second entrance of the house by a boy with low eyebrows and gentle eyes. There was a stone fish tank with roses crawling on the wall, a flower shelf was set up in the yard, and the stone tables and chairs below were complete.

Finally having a place to stay, Cuiwei is very satisfied with this clean new house, the Forbidden City's splendor is like a thing in her previous life, and the circumstances are enough to change everything.How much she wanted to enter that resplendent red wall at the beginning, but now she wants to spend the rest of her life peacefully in this simple and exquisite courtyard.

Going inside, there are three open rooms, one bright and two dark, with a table in the middle, a green and gold-rimmed beauty's dendrobium, with last year's lotus root stuck in it.The second room is separated by a floor-to-ceiling cover, which is made of rosewood, and it looks like a Qing Palace.

Looking at the curtains and the bed, they are all very similar to those in the palace.

Cuiwei was in a daze, when behind her she said, "Slave, please concubine and master", as if returning to the last days with Emperor Daxing.

Turning around for a look, he was startled and stunned, and replied with tears in his eyes, "I'll just say, I'll just say..."

Ya'er on the side was scared out of his wits, pointing to the person bowing to pay his respects, "Eunuch Guo, are you a human or a ghost?"

　He is coming, he is coming!who is he?
