Appoint me as a spy, but the contact person is actually the empress

Chapter 19 Threatened?Extraterrestrial disturbance

It's not that Concubine Liu really loves Xu Shouyun so much because of a poem.

In fact, Eunuch Chen controls all the affairs of Yanfu Palace. She has a relatively calm temper and doesn't like intrigue, so she just let the other party do it.

But in private, she also saw that Eunuch Chen had done something that he shouldn't have done.

Xu Shouyun's arrival also happened to give Eunuch Chen a good beating, and it was precisely because of this that she chose to let Xu Shouyun help her into the palace.

After entering the palace.

Concubine Liu also planned to take a rest, drank a few ounces of fruit wine, and felt a little overwhelmed.

Several palace maids took off the gold hairpins from her head, Xu Shouyun waited and kept silent, and when they got to the back, the palace maids even took off the long skirt for Concubine Liu, Xu Shouyun was very calm.

What is that?I didn't miss bikinis in my previous life, and I'm not a first-time brother. Xu Shouyun is not like some first-time protagonists, who blush when he shows his arms and his heart beats faster.

Of course, Xu Shouyun didn't look directly at it, but just glanced around from the corner of his eye.

Needless to say, Concubine Liu is not only good-looking, but also has a good figure. Of course, compared to Yanyun's huge size and Yanyue's roundness, it is still a little worse.

Of course, in terms of temperament, Yanyun and Yanyue will never be able to catch up.

"Shouyun, how many books have you read?"

In front of the mirror, Concubine Liu asked Xu Shouyun aloud.

"Hui Niangniang, I have been studying since I was a child, but my handwriting is not good, so I no longer want to read." Xu Shouyun replied.

There is no big problem with copying official documents, but writing is a big problem, and this reason is just right.

"You can write such words, and you must be from a scholarly family. Why did you choose to enter the palace?"

Concubine Liu continued to ask. Xu Shouyun was well prepared for this question.

"Your Majesty, the most difficult thing is to study. Although my subordinates have read a lot, their family is in decline. Coupled with years of disasters, they can't afford to eat until the end."

"My parents sent me to the palace to find a way out for my subordinates."

Xu Shouyun answered very calmly, but this answer was nothing, because all the court ladies and eunuchs were like this.

If it weren't for the fact that the family is really poor and has no choice, how many people are willing to enter the palace?Except for some ambitious people, of course.

After hearing this, Concubine Liu did not continue to ask.

It was just that it was almost done, so Xu Shouyun was asked to go back to rest, and she was also ready to go to bed.

Xu Shouyun didn't say anything, and left the bedroom directly, but after walking out of the hall, Eunuch Chen stood not far away, as if waiting for him.

"Don't be too complacent."

"Yanfu Palace is not as simple as you think."

"I advise you to leave on your own, otherwise, you will get into big trouble, and your ten lives are not enough to pay for it."

Eunuch Chen spoke in an exceptionally cold tone.

This is a warning.

Xu Shouyun looked at the other party, didn't say a word, didn't even answer, just left, ignoring the other party.

the reason is simple.

Why do you care about this person?
But Xu Shouyun couldn't figure it out, everyone was serving others, why bother to make things difficult for each other, and even threaten them like this?
He wants to see if the troubles in Yanfu Palace are not troublesome.

Xu Shouyun's directness stunned Eunuch Chen, but looking at Xu Shouyun's back, Eunuch Chen's gaze was filled with a sneer.

After half an hour.

When Xu Shouyun returned to his residence, he went to the dining room to eat a meal. It was not delicious at all, and he had to pay for extra dishes.

The rules in the palace are like this, the first-class empress looks very good at monitoring, but in fact her status in the palace is still relatively low.

There are no birds in the imperial dining room, and they can only eat ordinary things without extra money.

It's a pity that Xu Shouyun has no money.

It is impossible for the Chu Dynasty to give itself money, otherwise, it will easily arouse suspicion, and the day of monthly salary has not yet arrived.

So I can only feel sorry for myself.

But Xu Shouyun knew one thing, people who practice martial arts must take in supplements every day. When he was in the dining room, he saw other eunuchs, big fish and big meat.

Among them is the matter of martial arts.

I heard that the chief manager's meals are even mixed with traditional Chinese medicine. Just eating one meal is better than others who have worked hard for dozens of days.

But a meal costs at least a hundred taels of silver.

Money is extremely important in the palace. Money is needed for up and down management, and secondly, money is needed for basic necessities of life.

In other words, I really need to earn some silver, otherwise, the monthly salary of a first-class eunuch is only ten taels of silver.

Ten taels of silver is not enough for a normal meal.

It's just that there are too few ways for eunuchs to make money, there are nothing more than two, one is monthly salary, and the other is rewards from superiors.

The eunuchs of the Great Wei Dynasty were not taken seriously. At most, their own people bullied their own people. Any official outside could ride on the eunuch's head to show off their might.

Naturally, there is no other additional income.

Thinking of this, Xu Shouyun thought of a way to make money.

A collection of words and poetry.

I have a lot of poems and articles in my mind, if the collection of Yunde's poems can be popular, the quality will definitely beat everything.

However, Xu Shouyun deeply knew that the way of packaging and operation was that he had a good friend in his previous life, who was a friend of the publishing house.

Learned a lot.

So if you want to earn money with this thing, you need to think long-term, the right time, place and people are indispensable.

in this way.

Xu Shouyun started his daily practice, so he had no idea.

Two hours later.

It is late at night.

In the court of Great Wei, the three of Li Jie reappeared, but this time they called an additional person, Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Industry.

The arrival of the four broke the tranquility of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

But it was two hours later.

Before dawn, the four of Li Jie walked out of the palace with blank faces.

They are still trying to digest what happened two hours ago.

For two full hours, Empress Wei asked them to play chess with each other, without asking or talking about anything, just watching them play chess.

It's been two hours.

The four of them didn't even know what the Empress wanted to do.

They were completely puzzled. After the four of them left the palace, they gathered in Li's mansion to analyze what the Empress was going to do.

But until early in the morning, they couldn't analyze what Jiang Ling had done in the past two days.

However, the whereabouts of the four of them have already spread to the ears of senior officials in the entire capital.

The lobby of Liu Mansion.

Liu Yanming, the Chief Assistant of the Great Wei Cabinet, was sitting on the Grand Master's Chair, while the Right Minister of the Household Department stood respectfully in front of him.

"Old Liu Ge."

"Informed by secret agents in the palace, His Majesty summoned Li Jie, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, into the palace late at night in the past two days, and talked freely for two hours in a row."

"After the four of Li Jie left the palace today, they even went straight to Li's residence. I don't know what they are plotting."

The right servant of the household department told Liu Yanming the news.

"What can I say? Li Jie and the others have never participated in any political struggles. His Majesty is just looking for them for advice."

"However, Li Jie and the others are nothing."

"At present, His Majesty has agreed to change the rice into mulberry. This matter is the most important thing. What is the current state of Zhejiang Province?"

Liu Yanming didn't have any worries, and looked extraordinarily calm.

"Old Huige, the nineteen counties of Zhejiang Province have already bought 17 mu of fertile land. Once they decide to turn the rice into mulberry, they can resell it and make a profit of at least 500 million taels of silver."

He spoke, smiling all over his face.

But Liu Yanming shook his head: "It's not enough, it's not enough. Zhejiang and Ningfu have 200 million mu of fertile land, and a mere 17 mu is far from enough."

"Also, the land price is a little bit expensive, so cut it down by [-]% and let the local officials do it well. If it can't be done well, the government will send someone to do it."

Liu Yanming remained calm.

The latter bowed his head and responded immediately: "Respectfully obey the elder's order."
