Chapter 411
(One update!)
Emperor Chongde did not expect that the reaction of the court officials to the appointment of officials in the East Palace would be like this...so one-sided.

Isn't it?They all fell to the side of the East Palace.

Officials above the fourth rank seek shade for their descendants, officials below the fifth rank plan for themselves, and all they care about are the officials of the Eastern Palace.Emperor Chongde would not be unaware of how many officials passed through the Palace Gate Bureau and entered the East Palace every day; Emperor Chongde would not be unaware of how lively the Gu family is now.

Whatever Emperor Chongde wanted to know, Chang Kang would report in detail.

In fact, knowing too much is not good.With the comparison, there are naturally some ideas that shouldn't be there.
Even though Prince Zhu Xuanzhi still came to the Zichen Hall on time every day to pay his respects, and his face was still as respectful as before, Emperor Chongde still couldn't help thinking, what kind of thoughts were those officials who tended to the East Palace? In the meantime, who would they be more willing to choose?
Of course, such thoughts are only fleeting.As an emperor, Emperor Chongde was sensible enough to know that it was understandable for officials to plan for themselves.

Well, he knew that he could accept it, but he didn't expect it would be so soon and there would be so many officials.

"How about the officials in the Zhengshitang?" Emperor Chongde asked, wanting to know how the top officials of the state would behave.
What would these important ministers from the second rank think about the matter of being subordinate to the East Palace?Does anyone have plans for future generations?

"Back to the emperor, there are many officials who went to look for these five lords, but the five lords did not move." Chang Kang replied respectfully, without repeating the details.

The five officials of the Political Affairs Hall were extremely sober in this matter.Needless to say, Pei Gongfu and Wang Zhang, these two great gods knew their positions at any time, and would not take the initiative to plan something for their descendants at such a sensitive time.

What is rare is that the three new officials in the Zhengshitang all avoided this matter, which is not easy. ——Especially for Zhu Youluo, the right servant of Shangshu.

Zhu Youluo is mediocre and rich, and since the court officials came to the door, they would definitely not go there empty-handed.Zhu Youluo didn't seize this rare opportunity to make money, which made Emperor Chongde look at him with admiration.

Emperor Chongde didn't know that Zhu Youluo was greedy for money, but he knew very well that money could not be greedy.After seeing that Pei, Wang, Zheng and other families closed their doors to thank guests, he also closed the door of the house firmly, and no one was seen, and no gift was accepted.

Chang Kang knew all of these from comfort, and when reporting, he also reported it appropriately to increase the intuition of the officials of the Political Affairs Hall.

Emperor Chongde nodded after listening, and finally commented: "The officials of the Zhengshitang can understand clearly."

His tone was flat and straightforward, but Chang Kang couldn't help but lower his head.The emperor's thoughts are unfathomable, and every word has hidden meanings.
These few officials can figure it out, that is to say, can't other officials figure it out?
……

……

The situation of the Palace Gate Bureau, the Concubine Meng, who is in charge of the harem now, will not be unaware.When she heard that the Palace Gate Bureau was extremely busy and the East Palace was extremely lively recently, a secret smile appeared on Meng's cold face.

After a while, Concubine Meng De gave another order: "Allow more maids and servants to the East Palace. As for the reason, this Palace will personally explain to the Emperor. How is the health of the Crown Princess? How is the Yonghe Palace recently?"

Concubine Meng De's voice was as cold as her expression.She is the daughter of Meng Yunqing, the former imperial historian, and the method used to manage the harem is the same as that of Yushitai, everything is clear and distinct.

Where did he come from, where did he go, the maids, guards, and guards all went about their own affairs, even if it was stealing, rape, and trickery, there was something to be found.

Such a method is straightforward and there is nothing to criticize. Correspondingly, there is no benefit for the Yanxi Palace.

But Concubine Meng De said that she had been ill for more than ten years, so she would not think about any troubles.Huan Pei, the palace maid who has been with her for more than ten years, knows this best.

As for why Concubine Meng De agreed to the Empress Dowager Zheng's trip to the harem, Huanpei was also very clear.

"Go back to your empress, this servant knows that the maids and servants will be sent to the East Palace. The servant has already visited the Crown Princess, and the Crown Princess is still lying in bed. She will not recover for a while; there is someone delivering a letter to the Yonghe Palace. Yes, according to the wishes of the empress, she did not stop it." Huanpei replied like this.

After Concubine Meng De took over the affairs of the harem, she complied with the palace system and did not make any changes.The only change is probably to loosen the Yonghe Palace and give it enough convenience.

"That's good. If someone is rushing to die, I can't stop it." Concubine Meng De nodded and said, this sentence sounded extremely harsh.

Huan Pei didn't say anything, bowed and left to do business.In the huge Yanxi Palace, there were only Concubine Meng De and a few other servants who were silent about Gu Yan, so it looked quiet and deserted.

After a while, Concubine Meng De moved her body and said: "Get ready, I'm going to Zichen Palace."

Now that she is taking care of the affairs of the harem, she has to take care of everything.Zichen Palace, of course I want to go.

Hearing Concubine Meng De begging to see him, Emperor Chongde frowned and said, "See you!"

Concubine Meng De's father, Meng Yunqing, did some things that made Emperor Chongde extremely displeased. Even though Meng Yunqing has retired now, Emperor Chongde has no interest in Concubine Meng De for a long time.

The reason why he let her manage the harem is only because there is no one available in the harem now, and also because of Mrs. Zheng's suggestion. ——This kind of concubine who has no children and few feelings and desires is suitable for managing the harem in the eyes of Emperor Chongde.

Therefore, since Concubine Meng De was in charge, Emperor Chongde never stayed in Yanxi Palace, and Concubine Meng De would come to Zichen Palace, naturally for the harem affairs.

This time, it was for the East Palace matter.

"The East Palace has a constant stream of visitors, so the concubine has sent more people to the East Palace. In addition, there are many wives who want to see the princess, and the concubine thinks that the princess is not in good health, so they all refuse. It's just the Cheng family...after all It's the crown prince's mother clan, so the concubine didn't refuse." Concubine Meng De replied with a low eyebrow.

Ever since she left Yanxi Palace, she has always treated everyone like this, including Emperor Chongde.

After hearing this, Emperor Chongde only nodded, and said: "Aifei arranges the matter in the harem now."

It's just that some traces in his heart have deepened again.The visitors of the East Palace are going to order more people to be sent to the harem, and there are also wives. It seems that the officials of the East Palace are indeed a major event in the court.

If Concubine Meng De's words only deepened Emperor Chongde's heart, then the next incident can be said to ignite a big fire in Emperor Chongde's heart.

He did not expect that the officials of the Political Affairs Hall who satisfied him would also participate in the affairs of the East Palace!
