Corrupt official in the Red Chamber

Chapter 544 Xu Family
The eunuch who delivered the order didn't understand what the maid wanted to do, and looked at her with innocent eyes.

The little maid didn't know etiquette at all. She first gave the eunuch a blessing, and then said: "Our grandma asks how the prince is doing."

The eunuch was a little confused, what are the rules of Ningguo Mansion? According to Jia Zhen or the little maid, she should be the maid of the grandson's wife of the Ningguo Mansion, but why should she ask Jia Rui?

Jia Zhen was a little embarrassed next to her, but she didn't say much, which meant she acquiesced.

This eunuch has been in the palace for many years. He has a clever mind. When he saw this scene, he immediately understood what was going on.

Now he didn't dare to drag it out anymore. He quickly stood up and returned the salute, and then asked carefully:
"Do you have any orders from your grandma?"

The little maid was relieved when she saw that the eunuch understood what was going on!
To be honest, when grandma first asked her to come over, the little maid was still worried about being beaten.

I feel relieved now.

As soon as she relaxed, she immediately behaved as arrogantly as before towards the people in Ningguo Mansion, "Our grandma said that she hasn't seen the prince for a long time. Please go back and send a message to the prince, asking him to come and see our grandma."

It turns out that because Jia Rui was busy during this period (busy dealing with other women), he somewhat neglected Mrs. Xu.

At first, Mrs. Xu felt a little relaxed, but as time went by, she also felt a little uncomfortable.

What will I do if Jia Rui never comes again? You must know that the reason why you have such a transcendent status in Ning Guofu is all thanks to Jia Rui. If Jia Rui cuts off the relationship with you, you will have no end in the future.

Just when he was in such a hurry, news came from the front that the eunuch who was delivering the order had arrived. At this time, he quickly sent his maid to ask the eunuch to deliver a message to Jia Rui.

The eunuch naturally did not dare to interfere with Jia Rui's affair.

So he looked embarrassed.

When the little maid saw this, she curled her lips and said, "You can go ahead and spread the word. If the prince blames you, our grandma will be there to support you."

The eunuch had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree temporarily.

When he returned to the palace, he did not immediately go to see Jia Rui to give orders. Instead, he first asked the young eunuch to call out Lao Li, who was serving Jia Rui inside.

After a while, Lao Li walked out angrily. He glanced sideways at the eunuch, and then asked angrily:

"What's the emergency? You want me to come out at this time?"

The eunuch who delivered the order quickly licked his face and came forward, then took out a few banknotes from his arms and stuffed them into Lao Li's hand.

As soon as Lao Li touched the banknote, the scowl on his face turned away, "Little monkey, why do you want your ancestor to wipe your ass?"

"Ancestor, this slave encountered something strange in Ningguo Mansion today."

Lao Li glanced at him and immediately understood what the little monkey meant, "Is this something about Xu?"

"Ancestor, you are such a prophet!"

"Do you have anything to say from Mr. Xu?" Lao Li seemed to have not heard the compliments given by the eunuch who delivered the order.

"Ancestor, Mrs. Xu asked me to bring a message to the prince. Please tell me that the prince has not visited her for a long time." The eunuch who passed the order said carefully.

Lao Li looked at him and then said: "Since she asked you to send a message to the prince, you just tell the truth."

"Then the prince won't offend me, right?" The eunuch who delivered the order was a little undecided.

"You, you, why is a little lady who delivers orders doing so much supervision? This is the prince's family matter. You are the one who delivers the orders. Just do your job well."

Lao Li reprimanded the young eunuch, and originally wanted to turn around and leave, but after thinking about the money in his arms, he finally decided to give him a little mention, otherwise he would be sorry for the money. "Think about it, you little monkey, if you don't report this matter today, one day our prince will go to see Mrs. Xu and have a conversation with each other, knowing that you didn't pass the message in between, you, the little monkey, will be dead. ”

After listening to this suggestion, the eunuch who delivered the order suddenly realized.

If you pass on the message yourself, you may be reprimanded by the prince, but it won't be a big deal. If you don't pass on the message, your life will be lost if the prince finds out in the future.

After thinking of this, he made up his mind. He bowed respectfully to Lao Li, then licked his face and said:
"Ancestor, when the slave comes in to talk later, you can help me carry the little one beside me."

"Don't worry, it won't be a big deal as long as I'm here."

After saying these words, Lao Li returned to the Yangxin Hall.

The eunuch who delivered the order waited outside for a while before he dared to enter the Yangxin Hall.

After coming in, he saw Jia Rui finishing correcting the last memorial, and then stretching his body to pass the meal.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he quickly stepped forward and knelt on the ground, "I will come back to deliver my order."

Jia Rui glanced at him and then asked: "Has the decree been conveyed?"

"In reply to the prince, the imperial edict has been conveyed. Ning Jinghou Jiazhen is very grateful to the prince."

Only then was Jia Rui satisfied, and then he waved his hand to let him go.

However, the little eunuch did not leave. He knelt there and hesitated as if he had something to say.

Jia Rui frowned and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it."

"Your Majesty, I met the maid sent by Xu, the eldest granddaughter-in-law of Ningguo Mansion, in Ningguo Mansion. Her master asked me to give you a message."

When Jia Rui heard that it was Mrs. Xu, her beautiful face and pretty figure flashed across her eyes, especially the scent of Mrs. Xu's body.

"What message did she ask you to preach?"

"Back to the prince, Madam Xu said that the prince has not visited her for a long time, and asked the prince to come over."

This little eunuch was very clever. One look at Jia Rui's face and he knew that Mrs. Xu was still favored, so he quickly added the word "Empress" after Mrs. Xu's name.

Jia Rui's heart became itchy. He walked around on the ground a few times and then said, "Go over and tell Mrs. Xu that I will go tonight."

After listening, the eunuch quickly agreed, kowtowed and went out to deliver the message.

After leaving the Yangxin Hall, the little eunuch immediately trotted out of the palace, and then hurried to Ningguo Mansion with his servant.

When Jia Zhen of Ningguo Mansion knew that the young eunuch was coming, she hurried out immediately.

Because the little eunuch arrived in a hurry, Jia Zhen had not yet changed out of the marquis clothes she had just put on.

The little eunuch did not dare to look down on Jia Zhen this time, because this guy was a ruthless person. In order to get promoted and make a fortune, he even sacrificed his daughter-in-law.

Both sides bowed each other, and then the little eunuch pulled Jia Zhen aside and whispered in his ear:

"The prince is coming over tonight."
