Chapter 46 Stupid
Xuanzheng Hall is the place where His Majesty handles government affairs on a daily basis. According to the old system, those who serve pen and ink in Xuanzheng Hall are selected from among the beautiful women.

But since 20 years ago, Emperor Xuanwu ordered that the harem no longer accept concubines.The princes have also grown up long ago, and there is no need to take elective courses to fill the back house.The matter of drafting girls has been shelved for more than 20 years, and no one mentions it again.

The female officer serving the pen and ink has also been put on hold, and has always been served by the prince.

Today, His Majesty brought up this incident in a good manner, maybe he wants to resume the draft.

This shouldn't be, such a big matter must go through the Ministry of Rites, why did it suddenly mention it here.

For a moment, countless thoughts drifted through everyone's mind, and their eyes flickered.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for being considerate of this old slave." Wang Fu said respectfully, "The old slave is feeling unwell these days, Your Majesty should find a capable female official to serve the pen and ink."

Most of the ordinary court ladies are illiterate, and it has long been a custom that the female officials serving in the Xuanzheng Palace must be selected from among the ladies of various families.According to previous years, this is something that all the daughters of the family could only wish for.

After all, it is a great honor to serve pen and ink in front of you.As usual, as soon as the ladies of the aristocratic family are born, they will be taught to enter the palace to serve the emperor in the future.After the emperor abolished the draft, the aristocratic family gave up this idea.

Now that Emperor Xuanwu mentions it abruptly, the ladies don't feel any joy in their hearts.This entry into the palace lasted for three years, and everyone here has reached the age of marriage, and they were spoiled and spoiled since they were young, so how could they want to enter the palace.

There was silence in the hall, and none of the girls invited themselves.The young masters sitting on the other side all tried their best to wink at their sisters.Let them seize this opportunity and quickly ask for a decree to enter the palace.

"Your Majesty." A clear voice sounded, and everyone looked over.

It turned out that Changsheng came back at some time, she came out and knelt on the ground, her eyes were clear, and she said firmly, "My daughter is not talented, but she has read poetry and books since she was a child, and she is willing to enter the palace to serve tea for Your Majesty."

She was so expensive, the others seemed to have just realized it, and hurriedly knelt down in the hall, expressing their willingness to enter the palace.

Emperor Xuanwu seemed to be in a good mood, and smiled loudly, "Okay, Changsheng, I will wait for the order to serve tea in the palace tomorrow."

After he finished speaking, he got up and left.

Wang Fu raised his voice and said: "Everyone, Your Majesty is tired, please step back."

"Farewell to Your Majesty." This time, the hall knelt down again and said in unison.

After Wang Fu left, some young masters turned pale.

The girls lowered their heads and ran out following their brother.

"Congratulations, sister." Gu Changhua said with a gentle smile, "It's such a great news to be able to serve the emperor. Father must be very happy when he finds out."

Changsheng's mood was about to fly at this moment, and he clenched his fists.Zhengchou couldn't enter the palace, now the emperor really gave her a ladder.If you can go to the Chongwen Museum, you can browse some files!

Some things about my mother back then will inevitably be recorded in the volumes of the Chongwen Museum.

Seeing the smile on Chang Sheng's lips, Pei Zixu was infected for a moment, and couldn't help laughing along with her.

Not far away, Sun Xiaoran saw this scene, bit his lip and left Chengfeng Building.

……

"Confused!"

With a bang, the teacup fell to the ground.

Gu Changhua, who was kneeling on the ground, saw his father lose such a temper for the first time, his face turned pale with fright and he dared not speak.

Gu Dingxiang was so angry that he pointed at Gu Changhua and said angrily, "That's what your mother taught you, short-sighted things!"

What he said was a bit serious, but Mrs. Zhao didn't dare to say anything.She knew that Changhua was too confused about this matter.

Who is the female officer in Xuanzheng Palace?She is Bishangshu, and she is called Nvshanggong.Everyone in the harem is in awe, and the loyal ministers of the former court would politely call her "Miss" when they saw her.Originally, according to the old system, they were all selected after a lot of selection.Now the emperor directly asks, it's like a huge stuffed pie falling from the world, but there is no one to pick it up.

This night, half of the ladies from the noble families in Chang'an City probably spent their time kneeling in the ancestral hall.For Gu's parents and daughters who received this big stuffed pie, I don't know how many people are secretly jealous.

"Your Majesty stopped accepting the lady in charge of tea 20 years ago, and this matter came out of nowhere." Mrs. Zhao said cautiously, "Master, don't be angry, Changsheng has received such a great gift."

Gu Dingxiang actually sneered at Mrs. Zhao when he heard the words, "Yeah, I got longevity, shouldn't you be the one who should cry now!"

Mrs. Zhao was taken aback for a moment, then quickly figured out the joints here, and her face turned pale immediately.

Changsheng is like a palace, accompanying His Majesty every day.If you have the heart to instigate a few words in His Majesty's ear, there is nothing better than her.What's more, her natal family will be implicated!

"Kneel in the ancestral hall for one night, and reflect on yourself. Otherwise, you will look stupid when you marry into the Prince Jin's mansion in the future." Gu Dingxiang walked away angrily, frowning.

After his father left, Gu Changhua burst into tears, hugged his mother and cried, "It's just a mere female handwriting book, and soon I will be a princess. Why did father insult me ​​like this, mother, I won't go to the ancestral hall. "

"Even if you have a marriage contract, you don't have to enter the palace to wait on you." Zhao said with a heavy heart: "At that time, you should act like that. You will be His Majesty's daughter-in-law in the future. Now let Your Majesty think of you."

Gu Changhua also panicked, "Mom, what can I do now?"

If His Majesty is disgusted with her, it will definitely affect her future status and prestige in the Prince Jin's mansion, making people laugh at her in vain.

"At this time, mother came to think of a way." Mrs. Zhao patted her daughter's head and persuaded: "Now your father is angry, so don't disobey him. Go to the ancestral hall and kneel first, and then I beg for mercy in the middle of the night, and he will calm down." .”

Gu Changhua didn't listen to persuasion at this time, so he hurriedly wiped away his tears and walked to the ancestral hall.

……

"Great, this is a great honor."

When Rong's mother heard the news, her eyes glistened with tears, as if her life was about to come to an end.If the madam finds out about it, she will be happy for the miss.

Qingcha and Dai'er were also happy, and Qingcha immediately said: "Your maidservant, go and order the kitchen to cook some more dishes for the young lady to celebrate."

"The slaves are going too." Dai'er said happily.

The two little girls ran out holding hands, as if they were afraid that Changsheng would be hungry.

"You don't have to be at home after entering the palace." Rong's mother was happy and worried, and she was happy that Changsheng took this step, which can be said to have reached the sky.She was originally the eldest daughter of the Gu family, but now she has become the tea-handler next to the emperor, but she is not always superior to others.

The worry is that there are battles everywhere in the palace, and if you are not careful, you will be smashed to pieces.
