Chapter 20 The new official takes office (10)

"Because, because..."

Zhong Weiwei knocked her upper teeth and lower her teeth, and trembled slightly uncontrollably. She didn't dare to look at Chonghua, she turned her eyes away and looked at the dark algae well, even having difficulty breathing.

"Because I miss Zhong Mao."

She giggled and asked Chonghua flatteringly: "Second Senior Brother, did you see Zhong Mao when you came here? Has he grown taller? Has he not fallen ill again?
Did he receive the medicinal materials and money I brought back?Did the elder brother supervise him to practice martial arts and study every day? "

Chonghua looked at her silently, without saying a word.

Zhong Weiwei laughed again: "Second Senior Brother, look how hard I am on my errands every day, and how thoughtful I am for you... Can you let me go back earlier? I miss Senior Brother and Zhong Mao, I really miss it."

The anger in Chonghua's eyes climbed up little by little, and finally broke out suddenly. He slammed her hand away and gritted his teeth: "You are dreaming! Even if you die, I want you to die in this palace city!"

Zhong Weiwei supported the book case and moved it out a little bit, out of the reach of Chonghua's arm, quickly jumped away, and knelt down far away: "Your Majesty, calm down. All mistakes are the fault of the minister."

"Don't think that I pity you, but I am afraid that you will be beaten to death and lose my face!"

Chonghua picked up the porcelain tea set on the desk, slammed it on the ground, and angrily walked towards the inner hall.

"Farewell to Your Majesty." Zhong Weiwei bowed down, respectfully, and then quietly retreated.

Chonghua stood silently in the inner hall, the mottled light and shadow cast by the setting sun by the window fell on him, and his whole body was desolate.

Zhao Hongtu stood beside the curtain like a wooden sculpture and clay sculpture, pretending that he never existed.

Li Anren came in, knelt down and complained: "Your Majesty, Zhong Tongshi bullied the slave, she kicked the slave, beat the slave, and even threatened the slave."

Sure enough, he grew up outside the palace, without training, without winking at all, didn't he see that His Majesty was in a bad mood?Dare to add fuel to the fire.

Zhao Hongtu had no choice but to stand up and talk to each other: "Why did you provoke Zhong Tongshi?"

Li Anren didn't understand, but he was even more aggrieved: "The maidservant is just for His Majesty's grievance. His Majesty is afraid that she will suffer from Concubine Lu, so he came back early and waited, and asked the maidservant to remind her that she is arrogant and ungrateful.

His Majesty asked his servants to rescue her. She was not grateful at all, and said that His Majesty had better kill her.She is a bad woman who has no conscience, is heartless, and doesn't know what is good or what is bad!

His Majesty must vent his anger on this servant girl, and teach her a lesson, woo hoo..."

Chonghua said angrily: "Nonsense, who said that I came back early because I was afraid that she would suffer? I asked you to call her because I wanted her to serve as an errand! Who is worried about her? Who is she?"

Could he be wrong?Li Anren was stunned: "No...Your Majesty..."

Zhao Hongtu rushed over to cover Li Anren's mouth, and scolded in a low voice: "Talk too much, get out of here!"

Suddenly, Chonghua said coldly: "You are right, Zhong Weiwei really lacks a lesson. According to my order, she is only allowed to drink porridge and steamed buns for a month, and anyone who dares to give her other food will die! "

"Your Majesty is wise." Li Anren was overjoyed, and jumped up to deliver the decree.

Zhao Hongtu asked Chonghua: "Your Majesty, the time has come, do you want to pass on the meal?"

Suddenly I heard a report from the palace: "Concubine Lu Taigui of Furong Palace sent people to come to report to His Majesty, saying that Zhong Tongshi broke her ancestral glazed hibiscus vat today, and asked His Majesty what to do."

Chonghua smiled coldly: "Let her die!"

When Zhao Hongtu heard that it was not a problem, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Concubine Lu Taigui's temperament is a bit perverse, but she is also the most favored concubine of the late Emperor, and the biological mother of King Wu, you..."

Chonghua said viciously: "One or two dare not take me seriously. If I don't use thunderous means, I will be in control of the sky! Zhao Hongtu, you go to Furong Palace, ask the Lu family, and interfere in the harem affairs, spying on the holy will, and indiscriminately lynching the female officials before the imperial court, what crime should they deserve!
As a concubine, where is the example and demeanor she should have?Shameless?Then tell Zhong Weiwei that her salary for this year is gone!She is not allowed to give her a penny! "

After thinking about it, I added another sentence unwillingly: "She is not allowed to send messages outside the palace! Anyone who dares to send messages for her will die!"

Zhao Hongtu accepted the job with a bitter face, and left with a sigh.

Zhong Weiwei ate steamed buns with gruel with no expression on his face, watching Li Anren jumping up and down gleefully at the side, and said contemptuously: "Idiot."

Li Anren was furious: "Who are you scolding?"

"Call you." Zhong Weiwei put down his chopsticks and rolled up his sleeves: "Is your skin itchy?"

Li Anren turned around and ran away: "I want to tell His Majesty that you bullied me, just wait and see."

Zhong Weiwei sat back and continued to eat her buns.

Ge Xiangjun came to see her, and quietly stuffed an oiled paper bag for her, and said in a low voice: "Eggs that have been peeled off their shells won't leave any traces after eating them, so eat them while they're hot."

Zhong Weiwei smiled and said, "Didn't Sister Xiangjun hear the latest decree? Are you not afraid of death?"

Ge Xiangjun gently plucked the rice grains from the corners of her lips for her: "If you don't tell me, if I don't tell you, who will know? It's rare to have a confidant in this palace. If I'm not good to you, who should I be good to?"

There was a warm current in Zhong Weiwei's heart, he lowered his head and ate the egg, and said softly: "It's delicious. Thank you sister."

"Who are we and who, don't talk about this."

Ge Xiangjun stared at Zhong Weiwei, and said in a low voice: "Do you know, just now Concubine Lu Taigui sent someone to tell Your Majesty that you broke her ancestral glazed hibiscus vat and asked His Majesty what to do. Your Majesty said, let her die!" "

"Oh." Zhong Weiwei's expression remained unchanged: "Your Majesty said that whoever dares to bully his subordinates will die if he doesn't give him face."

Ge Xiangjun said again: "Your Majesty still scolds Concubine Lu Taigui for being shameless, and wants to question her."

Zhong Wei only smiled: "It's true that I owe a lesson."

She gestured to Ge Xiangjun: "Without saying a word, I just jumped up and scratched me. Fortunately, I was quick-witted and dodged quickly, otherwise I would have been disfigured."

Ge Xiangjun frowned: "You did it on purpose."

Zhong Weiwei raised his eyebrows: "What was it on purpose? Did you deliberately break the glazed hibiscus vat? How could it happen? I was really frightened and panicked."

Ge Xiangjun lowered his eyes: "You don't believe me. I'm asking you, did you deliberately provoke His Majesty's anger?"

Zhong Weiwei complained: "How dare I? Didn't you see that I did everything possible to please him? Otherwise, why did I work so hard? It's really a dilemma."

"As long as you are willing to smile sincerely at His Majesty, sit down with him and say a few soft words calmly, you will be much better off than you are now."

Ge Xiangjun lowered his voice: "After all, you two had a marriage contract before, and His Majesty also loves you. If you are willing to follow his wishes, you can become a queen."

Zhong Weiwei seemed to have heard a big joke: "You are mistaken, I am not the one who has a marriage contract with him, and he doesn't like me either."

At best, the man's self-esteem has been hurt, and he is just unwilling.
