Chapter 41
In the early morning of the second day, when Meier woke up, it was already high in the sun!Li Longji has already gone to court, and as soon as Meier woke up, Ningwei, the maid of Wenchun Palace, brought a group of maids to wash her up. The expressions on the faces of these people were obviously more respectful than yesterday. Meier has been named Wu Xianyi for so long Except for the day when she was first entrusted with the position, today is the most proud and elated. Li Longji just got lucky with her, and the attitude of the people in the palace changed greatly. It can be seen how important grace is to survive in this harem.

A little court lady knelt on the ground, holding the washbasin to the top of her head with both hands, and said, "Wu Xianyi please wash your face."

Mei'er hummed, and splashed the clear water mixed with rose juice on her face, while Ningwei wiped her face with a soft handkerchief, she said with a smile: "Before His Majesty left this morning, he specially asked the servants to , Xianyi was tired last night, so don't let the servants disturb you."

"En!" Mei'er was very happy in her heart, but hummed calmly.

Ningwei waited for Meier to sit down at the dressing table, picked up the horn comb, combed her hair gently, and said: "Xianyi wants to take a rest this morning, or go directly to pay her respects to the empress."

Mei'er looked at the hairpins in the makeup box, but was not very satisfied, and didn't know which hairpin to wear.

Ning Wei observed the words and expressions, saw Meier like this, and with a thought, said to the little maid on the ground: "Go and order Liao Sizhen from the Shangfu Bureau to make some suitable clothes and hairpins for Wu Xianyi. Useful for a few days."

"No!" The little maid came out of Wenchun Palace with her head down.

Meier asked suspiciously: "Isn't this month's monthly case gone! How can I have money to do this?"

Ning smiled and said: "This is what Liao Sizhen should be filial to, so there's no need for the monthly rules of moving the empress."

Mei'er was taken aback, and said, "I'm afraid this is not good!"

Ning Wei said: "What's the matter! Your Majesty is the person on the cusp of His Majesty's heart, and it's too late for them to flatter you. Letting them make clothes and jewelry for your Majesty is a great honor to them!"

Meier Nuoru said, "This... this."

Ning Wei said disapprovingly: "One month later it will be the Chinese New Year, when the time comes, all the concubines in the palace will have to buy jewelry and clothing, and there will be frequent banquets, if the empress does not have a pleasing dress, how can I make Your Majesty happy!"

Mei'er heard her say this, thought for a while, and it was true, so she didn't say anything to stop her, and let her change her clothes.

After a while, a servant sent a message saying that the empress had summoned the concubines in the Kunde Palace to have a talk. After Meier listened, she took Ningwei to the Kunde Palace regardless of the pain in her body.

Before reaching the inner hall, Chang Xi came out with a smile that was not a smile, tilted his head, and teased, "Congratulations to Wu Xianyi!"

"Go!" Mei'er lowered her head shyly, spat on Chang Xi lightly, and scolded with a smile: "Guanhui is a poor tonguer!"

Chang Xi stuck out her tongue, and said with a smile: "It's different to be a real virtuous person. People are much better than before!"

"You!" Mei'er raised her hand as a gesture to hit her, the maid behind her coughed slightly, and Mei'er remembered that she had a different status now, how could she laugh and fight with a court lady in public, losing her dignity.Thinking of this, he put away his smile, straightened his clothes, and entered the inner hall with lotus steps.

Chang Xi froze on the ground, a little embarrassed, but remembering Gao Lishi's reprimand last time, knowing that she couldn't use the old address in front of everyone, she thought it would be fine to laugh with her in private again.

In the inner hall, Concubine Hua, Guo Shunyi, Yu Zhaorong, Huangfu Deyi, and Liu Cairen accompanied the queen to talk. Everyone smiled and greeted Meier when she entered the hall. Huangfu Deyi even stood up and said, : "Congratulations, sister Meier!"

Mei'er smiled lightly, returned the salute, and said, "Hello, Sister Fenglu!"

The queen laughed and said, "Sit down, and stop making such nonsense!"

After everyone sat down, Wang Mei came to the hall after a long time, knelt down on the ground, and said: "The concubine is late, please forgive me!"

The queen raised her hand and said, "No problem!"

After Wang Meiren sat down at the table, she lightly sipped her tea.

Huangfu Deyi smiled and said: "I haven't seen you for a long time, my sister has lost a lot."

Wang Meiren sneered and said: "It's no different than sister Fenglu who is favored every day. She must serve His Majesty with all her heart. Elder sister, besides eating every day, I just read books to pass the time. How can I have a chance to reduce my burden?"

Chang Xi and the others were taken aback, didn't Wang Meiren and Huangfu Deyi both belong to Concubine Li's team, why did Wang Meiren not show her face at all when she spoke today, did the two have a suspicion, or did they deliberately put on a pose for everyone to see?

After hearing this, Huangfu Deyi didn't argue with her, just laughed it off.

Wang Meiren leaned back and said, "I haven't congratulated Wu Xianyi yet, but last night I was finally blessed by His Majesty's rain and dew!"

Mei'er blushed, and was very angry when she heard the slight sarcasm in Wang Meiren's words. She forced a smile and said, "Thank you, sister beauty."

Yu Zhaorong looked at Wang Meiren and said: "My sister is indeed pale, but she is not feeling well in winter, so she must take good care of her!"

Wang Meiren said indifferently: "Thank you, sister Zhaorong, for your concern."

Concubine Hua said: "Liu Jieyu is confined to the bedroom, I don't know what's going on? My sister is on good terms with her, didn't you go to visit her?"

Wang Mei said humanely: "Your Majesty and the Empress have a strict order that concubines and concubines are not allowed to be visited by others. How dare my younger sister defy the law? But I heard from the maids serving in her bedroom that younger sister Liu is dedicated to repenting in the palace, chanting scriptures and chanting Buddha every day, very hard."

Concubine Hua said: "It's good that she has such thoughts! It's not in vain for the queen to let her go, and she will be punished leniently."

Wang Meiren smiled and said: "The empress is kind, it's natural, but I heard from the servants of the Yeting Bureau that it's not a good thing for Sister Zhong to be there, people often hear her cursing Zhao Cairen of Qiu Shuangzhai every day."

"Oh? Is there such a thing!" The queen calmly said: "Why doesn't this palace know!"

Wang Meiren said coldly: "Your Majesty is in charge of the Six Palaces and manages all kinds of affairs every day. How can she care about these unfavored concubines?"

Yu Zhaorong smiled and said: "What I'm saying is that the Empress has endless worries, so it's better for the younger sisters to help take care of this little matter."

Guo Shunyi didn't speak all the time, and only after hearing this did she say: "The New Year's Eve is approaching, the Empress may have more things to do, I don't know if there is anything I can do to share my empress' worries!"

The queen nodded and said: "Sister Shunyi remembers this palace, the new year is coming soon, everyone in the six palaces should also buy some things for the new year, everyone should go to the Shangfu Bureau to ask for it according to the rules. In addition, His Majesty told me Gong, send a copy to Zhao Cairen of Qiushuangzhai, let Wang Meiren choose her for her!"

Wang Mei said humanely: "The concubine thanked the queen for Zhao Cairen's kindness."

Liu Cai said: "Sister Liu, who doesn't know how to restrain herself, and Sister Zhong, who was assigned to the Ye Ting Bureau, do they have this grace?"

The queen hesitated and said: "Both of her majesties didn't say anything, but it's the Chinese New Year, so it's not a big deal for someone to give them a copy. Sister Liu's share is still given to Wang Meiren. As for Sister Zhong Let Yu Zhaorong send that to her!"

"No!" The two bowed and agreed.

The queen fiddled with Yu Ruyi in her hand and said: "This year's New Year's Eve dinner, Your Majesty will hold it in the Huae Tower, and no foreign officials will be invited. There will only be three royal family members and a concubine in the harem, so let the sisters show off their talents. I might as well take this opportunity to entertain His Majesty!"

Meier and the others laughed and said, "It's only natural!"

The queen said sternly: "Show art belongs to show art. If something like Zhao Cairen happens again, I will definitely punish him severely!"

"No!" Everyone agreed in unison.
