The emperor is reborn, the cute queen is upgraded

Chapter 43
Originally, there were only a few palace attendants in the East Palace. Although the crown prince and concubines were few, they had to be served by others. Empress Xu asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to arrange twenty palace attendants for the East Palace.

Although Empress Xu said that she would ask Si Luoyun and the others to write down the names of the palace servants that must be used in the Chen Palace, and that the Empress Dowager Si would arrange for escorts, but I'm afraid it was just talking!How can there be too many henchmen in the palace!
Si Luoyun looked at the eight servants and twelve court ladies standing in front of her, and couldn't help but feel a little headache.

How many of these twenty palace people are the eyeliners placed in the East Palace by people with ulterior motives?Will there be any trouble in the days to come?Although it is premature to worry, it is something that has to be considered!

"Crown Princess, this is the roster of twenty palace attendants." A chief servant of the Ministry of Internal Affairs presented the roster respectfully.

Now that He Baoquan is following the crown prince, Zhang Caisheng temporarily becomes the director of the East Palace, and he stepped forward to take the roster and forward it to Si Luoyun.

Si Luoyun took it over and glanced at it, it was written in detail which palace each palace servant had served in and what errands he had held.It can be seen that the Ministry of Internal Affairs is cautious in doing things.

Handing the roster to Mu'er and the female officer next to her, Si Luoyun sat upright with a cold expression on her face.

She glanced at the twenty palace people again and said: "You are all brought out by the nanny in charge or the father-in-law, and I don't need to list the rules of this palace for you. The rules of the East Palace are only It will be stricter. From now on, you are the people of the Eastern Palace, and you represent the Eastern Palace in everything you say and do. If anyone breaks the rules and damages the reputation of the Eastern Palace, I will not forgive you lightly! I don’t want to say anything It’s too serious, if any of you don’t want to serve in the East Palace, it’s not too late to stand up now, I will definitely not embarrass you. If anyone in the future puts one’s mind on two things, don’t blame me for severely punishing you!”

Although the twenty palace people all bowed their heads, after hearing what the princess said, their eyes still flew around in private, and they stood up straighter one by one.

After waiting for a while, seeing no one came forward, Si Luoyun smiled faintly, "Since everyone has heard clearly, let Eunuch Zhang and Ms. Mu'er arrange your positions."

After the crown princess said these words, the official Mu'er took a step forward and blessed Si Luoyun first, and then opened the roster.

"Hehe, the Crown Princess really said that?" Empress Xu took a sip of almond milk tea, then let out a long sigh of relief and lay down on the big cushion.

A court lady knelt by the couch and hammered Empress Xu's legs, and the servant of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who had just gone to the East Palace to see off someone, was standing in the hall bowing.

Empress Xu waved her hand, a court lady stepped forward and stuffed a purse into the servant, and sent him away.

"It seems that this princess who is also from the Si family is not easy. Your Majesty." Aunt Lianhong, the big court lady standing aside, said mockingly, "I don't know how the crown princess will deal with the palace servant who made a mistake. ?”

Empress Xu closed her eyes and dozed off, and snorted lightly when she heard the words, "Huh! Maybe it's just a bluff! Compared with her sister... no! Even compared with her concubine sister, the Crown Princess is the one who is inferior. ! Otherwise, you won’t be a virgin after entering Chen Palace for a year!”

Aunt Lian Hong pondered for a moment, but she still felt a little uneasy and said: "Your Majesty, after all, she is the one who becomes Queen Chen and the Crown Princess, not the concubine of the Si family, her methods should not be underestimated, right?"

Empress Xu opened her eyes and looked at the palace maid who had followed her for more than ten years and shook her head, "Lian Hong, why are you so confused? How can there be any reason to make a concubine a daughter as a queen? Even if Mrs. Si is favored again, it will be too late to climb to the position of Mrs. It's amazing! King Chen...the crown prince is not that stupid!"

"It's the servant who is dull." Lian Hong bowed her head and said.

"However, the East Palace not only has fewer people serving the palace, but also seems to have fewer concubines for the prince." Empress Xu looked at the hands that had washed away the bright red cardamom after her son's death, "Now there are not even ten of them. Can't make it up?"

"Back to Empress, including the Crown Princess, there seem to be only about seven people." Lian Hong replied.

Empress Xu smiled and said, "It's really too few! Besides, the prince's status is different now, so he should have a few more concubines to spread the word."

"Your Majesty means... but now that Prince Shang has passed away for less than a month, and His Majesty is seriously ill, His Highness would not think so."

"It doesn't matter! You pick three beautiful court ladies and send them to the East Palace to serve the Crown Prince." Empress Xu arrogantly said, "If the Crown Princess has any excuses, you can tell her that it is the palace's intention!"

"Yes, servant girl will do it now." Lian Hongfu backed out.

The maids next to the empress were naturally extremely efficient, and they sent three more beautiful court ladies into the East Palace before dinner!

Lian Hong tactfully told the Crown Princess that these three maids were different from the ones sent before, they were carefully selected by the Queen Mother to serve His Highness the Crown Prince full-time.

Si Luoyun looked at the three court ladies expressionlessly. Although they were not stunning beauties, they were also beautiful and youthful!

"Tomorrow, the Japanese Palace will personally pay my respects at the Queen Mother's palace, and today I will ask my aunt to pass on my thanks first." Si Luoyun said politely.

Lian Hongfu said "Don't dare" and saw that the princess had no special expression or meaning to say anything, so he left the East Palace and returned to the Phoenix Palace in embarrassment.

Empress Xu was not surprised when she learned about the performance of the Crown Princess from Aunt Lianhong.Which one in the harem is not wearing a mask to face people?If you can't hold back even this little bit of anger, then you are really a fool!
"Your Majesty, since you want to fill the Prince's East Palace, why don't you choose a young lady from the Xu family..."

"The girls of the Xu family can't afford to bet randomly." Empress Xu interrupted Lianhong's question with a sigh, "If the prince doesn't ascend the throne and become emperor for a day, there will be variables! Don't rush this moment!"

At the beginning, Empress Xu intended to let her niece be elected as the crown princess, but in the end, the eldest daughter of the Si family won the first place!

I thought that my son would definitely be the emperor, so I sent two Xu's daughters into the prince's mansion as concubines!These two daughters of the Xu family were both named wives because of Empress Xu's favor, but they have never been able to conceive the heir of the former prince!
Once the former prince died, these two chess pieces would also be useless, and one of them was his own niece!Empress Xu really regretted it to death!

Therefore, before Dugu Ye became the emperor, Empress Xu was not going to find girls from the Xu clan to enter the palace again!Anyway, the future is long!
In the evening, Duguye served the emperor in Taiji Palace and drank medicine, and returned to the East Palace after the emperor fell asleep.

After entering the East Prayer Hall where Si Luoyun lived, Duguye no longer concealed his exhaustion.

Besides Liao Mu'er, Si Luoyun also chose four maids sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs to serve in the East Prayer Hall.

But for the dignity of entering the palace to serve the master personally, the four maids still have to endure for a while.

Fortunately, with He Baoquan and Zhang Caisheng, two servants brought over from the Chen Palace, Duguye will not be left alone when he arrives at the East Prayer Hall.

After changing clothes and washing hands, Dugu Ye leaned on the couch in the open room and let out a long sigh of relief.

In the imperial palace, it seems that this palace room is the only place where he can truly relax, right?
"Have you had dinner, Your Highness?" Si Luoyun took the teacup from Liao Muer and put it on the couch table, and asked Dugu Ye softly.

"I'm not hungry..." Dugu Ye closed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice.

Seeing Dugu Ye's state, Si Luoyun whispered some instructions to Liao Mu'er, and the female officer turned around and left the palace room.

There is a small kitchen in the Eastern Palace, which can cook some simple meals for the masters of the Eastern Palace.

The royal chef and the servants in the small kitchen were all selected and arranged by Dugu Ye before, so you can rest assured about eating.

During the day, Duguye discussed and dealt with some government affairs with several court ministers, and then went to the emperor's bedside to report how he handled the ministers' memorials and the ministers' opinions on some political affairs to the emperor. It was inevitable to feel tired.

After a day of exhaustion, he was drowsy, and when he almost fell asleep on the couch in the open room of the East Prayer Hall, the smell of food woke him up!
Dugu Ye opened his eyes, and saw that six dishes of side dishes, a dish of minced meat pie and a bowl of porridge had been placed on the couch table at some point!
Originally bored and tired, he had no appetite, but when he saw these simple but delicious foods, his stomach felt empty!
Si Luoyun took a sliced ​​pancake sprinkled with minced beef and put it on the shallow plate in front of Duguye, "Your Highness, let's eat less before going to bed, lest the stomach be empty at night and make it difficult to sleep well."

With food in his belly, the boredom and fatigue dissipated a lot, and Duguye's complexion looked much better.

When the palace servants removed the things, Si Luoyun took a peek at Dugu Ye, who was slowly drinking tea with the changed teacup, thinking that at this time, Empress Xu rewarded three special maids to serve him. Ye should not react too violently, right?

When Dugu Ye first entered the palace room tonight, his face was full of clouds. If it was mentioned at that time that Empress Xu rewarded the maids and indicated that they only served Dugu Ye, His Royal Highness might be enraged by thunder!

Si Luoyun didn't want Empress Xu to suffer because she did something disgusting!So I thought of a way to procrastinate, to fill the prince's stomach first, and then talk about the three court ladies after Dugu Ye's mood eased!
"Today..." Si Luoyun polished what she was going to say in her heart, then looked at Dugu Ye and said.

"It's getting late, let's go to rest earlier." Dugu Ye put down the teacup, looking back at Si Luoyun softly, "I heard that today's empress ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send twenty palace servants over. I think it's the same for you to arrange for them to do things." tired."

After finishing speaking, Dugu Ye stood up and took Si Luoyun's hand resting on the couch table, and walked towards the inner hall.

"Your Highness, I'm a concubine..." Before Si Luoyun could say what she wanted to say, she was dragged into the inner hall by Duguye!

When Duguye caressed his boss Luoyun's cloud bun and pulled out a bun, there was a smile on his lips that made the woman's heart beat faster.

"Yun'er is trying to say that you are not tired?" Duguye pulled off a piece of gold from Si Luoyun's head, and threw it on the ground! "I'm lonely and tired."

Your Highness, are you tired?But your eyes and expression obviously want to be more tired!

"Your Highness...Your Highness." Si Luoyun raised her hand and gently pushed Duguye's pressed chest, her face was red and she turned her head away, but her red ears still betrayed her panic and shyness. "You've just had dinner, so go to bed immediately and it's easy to accumulate food."

"..." His Highness the Crown Prince pinched the hand that pressed the temple bead flower for a moment, then half-closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then forced a smile at the corners of his mouth and said, "I will do something to digest immediately !"

Si Luoyun felt that her whole body was burning hot, and beads of sweat burst out, "But... But I am worried that Your Highness, you will..."
