Hou Kun

Chapter 61

What crooked thoughts can the people in front of the emperor move?The people in front of the imperial court were carefully selected, so Najiu couldn't figure it out.

Tong Liu said that he was tired, he raised his face slightly, took tea from the purple sand pot, and pinched the bait with the other hand to take care of his fish.He only raises a kind of black koi. He likes to hide deep in the bottom of the tank on weekdays. He smells the bait, soars up violently, and spits out blisters when he reaches the water surface. The next piece of golden light.

The tank is in the middle of the dark courtyard, very deep, with dim water waves.The water was cleaned and replaced frequently, the water was extremely clean and clear, the algae swayed, and the black fish fluttered with the waves, like a few ghosts lurking in it.

Tong Liu has always been cautious and alert, keeping his words secret.Although Najiu was his godson, from the first time we met, apart from explaining things, the amount of caring words he said was not as much as today.

After Tong Liu'er finished serving the fish, he chatted with him about the draft.Be careful with Jiu Duo, the business that should be said is over.For the rest, he has to figure it out by himself.

"The Ministry of Households handed over the list of beautiful women reported by all banners. On the day of the draft, after entering the Shenwumen, they will be handed over to us. Nothing can happen. Enter the gate to register [the second round of the draft] here, It's all at your disposal... Don't be careless. The matter of thousands of cars... Fulun committed a crime, and there is no one in charge in the palace now, so we have to rely on the respect room to take care of it."

This year's draft has a lot of movement and a lot of people.The capitals of the Eight Banners also followed into Beijing.A show girl has a car, lights are hung on the car, and it is marked Manchurian and Han, and enters the palace in order. There are many people and cars, but there is no mistake.The beautiful women who can enter the palace to be selected will not be able to sleep this night: they wait outside the Shenwumen to pick up the eunuchs, and file in, from Donghuamen, from Chongwenmen Street to Beijie Market, and finally turn around for a while. Circle back to Shenwu Gate, and wait outside Shunzhen Gate until noon, waiting for the Empress Dowager to choose to watch.

The draft is a major event, although it is handled by the Ministry of Household Affairs, when it comes to the inner court, it has to be arranged by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.Now Fulun is still locked, and the job falls to the nine heads.

"If someone greets you and asks for help, you can do it yourself. Although the eunuchs in the palace have no relatives or relatives, you can't avoid it because of the world, right? It's difficult for us."

Najiu is his godson, and he has to know all these inside information, there is nothing to hide.

Najiu respectfully replied "嗻", "Is there anyone to take care of Gan Ama? Give the name to the son, if you want to keep it, the son will obey Gan Ama's orders."

Someone in Tong Liu'er's hand has already asked for an invitation.There are those who want to go, and there are also those who do everything possible to leave a sign, waiting for the master to choose, and those who have blue eyes and want to enter the palace to be the master's wife.Everyone has their own good fortune, and he can't control it.Maybe the one entrusted to him has a strong background.However, this is a trivial matter for him, and he is too lazy to care about it, so he will leave it to Najiu.

With his hands behind his back, Tong Liu was attracted by a group of pigeons flying in the sky. He stared at it for a long time, and then turned around and asked, "There is a special case. In the palace, all queens and lords in the palace who have relatives and sisters are exempt from selection. Do you want to know?"

Na Jiu took care of it for a few days, paying great attention to general affairs.Especially following Tong Liu'er, he couldn't be sloppy.These little things have to be kept in mind at all times, in case the superiors ask questions suddenly.Therefore, whether the matter is handled by him or not, those who enter the respect room must first show it to him in writing.

"Only Concubine Kang's own sister is in the roster. The son has returned to the Queen. The Queen's meaning is that Concubine Kang has always been respectful. Her younger sister will be accepted into the palace first. Pick a good day and bring her to the Queen Mother to have a look." That's it."

Tong Liu nodded in satisfaction.That's how errands are done, the higher-ups didn't think of them, they had to be prepared in advance, and dealt with as soon as they could be dealt with, otherwise there would be a lot of affairs in the palace, and it would be too troublesome to go back to him for everything.

"However, the queen's master also ordered one thing, the girl of the Jiayong family. My son thought about it. It is not in accordance with the rules to follow the concubine's sister to greet the queen mother directly. Besides, Jiayong was punished by the queen mother to go to Khalkha to raise horses. But the Queen's master said that the girl from Jiayong's family had a close friendship with her, and she was considered half a biological sister. My son didn't dare to make up his mind about this matter, so I asked Ama to show me."

"...It's easy. Don't even do it with Concubine Concubine's sister. If you are a senior official, please come to live in the palace together for a few days. When the time comes, how the Queen's master wants to support her will be up to her."

After the discussion, Na Jiu walked out.It was dark outside.

Think about it, there is still a big thing to do.

When I went back to the value room, I only said that I wanted to select the manpower for the draft, and I wanted to come to the list of eunuchs. I searched it carefully, and found that none of the important palace servants was named Guo Qian.Tired for a day, my eyes were sore, I thought about asking about the style of the pen, but I was afraid that it would be too obvious, so I hesitated for a while, thinking that I hadn't arrived at the Imperial Palace yet, so I put this matter on hold for now, and I will inquire later.The palace still needs to have its own manpower. A few people have been scattered before, but they haven't been dispatched yet, so they don't work together.

Spring hits six or nine, and this year's Spring Festival Gala begins, and spring begins on the ninth day of the lunar new year, and the sun is slowly getting warmer.

After fifteen years in the palace, everything will be as usual.As soon as the court meeting opens, all the gods and Buddhas in the harem will be seated.The queen has to take care of the draft, so she sends Najiu to reply every now and then. It's almost February, and gradually there is a gentle breeze. Braids, decorated with braids, dangling, lively, like the first touch of green in the Spring Festival, watching people feel better.

Going to Jingren Palace on that day, it suddenly started to rain lightly on the road.

This is the first spring rain this year, and it came in a hurry.Drenched in the rain of apricot blossoms, after a while, Najiu's body, head and face were all wet, sticking to her body, it was cold and icy, it was still early spring after all.After passing through the right-wing door, a delicate fragrance is sent to the tip of the nose and enters the heart and spleen.It is a wintersweet plant outside the door, which blooms just right, with yellow petals adorned on the dry branches, spewing out a wisp of fragrance from the stamens.The first tree blooms every year, all in it.

After entering Jingren Palace, two eunuchs were standing by the gate of the palace. When they saw him, they planted rice seedlings from a distance. Wait a moment." Najiu nodded and went to the next room.

Standing on the veranda outside the veranda, standing there with folded hands, waiting a bit bored, looking up at the rain.The rain became more and more urgent, stirring up a layer of mist on the double eaves, and the palace was shrouded in white mist.He stood there upright, tall and tough.

The rain was getting heavier, and the splashed water droplets jumped on the tiles, and when it was more severe, the rain arrows bounced around, and some even jumped on him.

"Master, your clothes are all wet. This servant has a regular casual robe. Do you want to change?" A gentle voice sounded from behind.

I had to change it, but I forgot about it, it’s fine if it’s colder, it’s disrespectful to go to see the master with wet clothes.

"Who are you?" There are many people who flatter him, not many who have good eyesight and are not annoying.He glanced back and saw a young eunuch in a gray robe, who was probably a handyman.

The little eunuch raised his head and smiled at him, his eyes were full of spring, making him look warm and comfortable.

"The slave is serving the queen's master's tea, and his humble name is Guo Qian."
