Chapter 13 Suppression of ambition (1)
"Where is it? I'm telling the truth."

"That girl can hold her breath. Knowing that Zhuang Dianzhi wants to use her to please me, she can agree without being humble." Xu You's eyes were full of obvious praise.

"Then, is your lord going to give her the place of female history this time? She should have had this opportunity two years ago. The divisions, codes, and palms are all full of praise for her. You just want to suppress it and insist on not letting her Pass, this time it can’t be like this again.” Winnie thought of the fact that Xun Zhen was ridiculed because of the failure of the last selection in the past two years, even Lu Rong, who only knows how to eat, could be selected as a female history, and She, who was obviously better than Lu Rong in all aspects, was suppressed.

Xu You's gesture of pulling the tea was a pause. I remember that she had a conversation with Xun Zhen in this room at the time.

At that time she asked: "Do you feel unwilling? Obviously you are top-notch in everything, but I press down and don't let you pass."

Xun Zhen raised his childish face and looked straight at her, "Master Shanggong, my subordinates have no complaints."

"Oh?" She couldn't help but be surprised when she heard the answer, but her eyes looked at her extremely sharply.

Xun Zhen didn't seem to feel her coercion, "This subordinate must have something that is not good enough." Her eyes suddenly lit up, "My lord wants to give time for this subordinate to change, and this subordinate will strive to do better. I will do better, and I will not let you down again."

Thinking of this, Xu You chuckled.

At this time, the high-ranking female officials who had already been selected came up to ask for instructions to confirm the number of women's history. After taking it and opening it, it turned out that there was Xun Zhen's name.

Zhuang Dianzhi is a person who knows Xu You's heart well. Seeing Xu You's gaze on Xun Zhen's name, he hurried forward and said politely: "Master Shanggong, Xun Zhen's hard work is obvious to all. Don't you often say Wouldn’t it be possible to bury talents? There’s no reason for Xun Zhen to be unable to pass the promotion of female historians over and over again.”

Xu You glanced at Zhuang Dianzhi, "She has indeed made great progress this time, and she should be awarded the post of female historian. Zhuang Dianzhi is very dedicated in cultivating newcomers and deserves to be commended."

Zhuang Dianzhi was overjoyed, but his face became more and more calm, "The subordinates are just acting according to the rules."

Xie Sizhi, who was standing in front of her, was quite displeased. This subordinate seems to be ignoring her less and less recently, which is not a good thing. "It's your honor to be praised by Mr. Shang Gong, and you don't need to refuse."

"Master Si Zhi said so." His eyebrows drooped slightly, and he raised his eyebrows slightly to look at Xie Sizhi, with a hint of provocation in his respect.

Xu You saw all of this, and sneered at the corner of his mouth, no matter what the status of the people in this palace, it seems that ambition is indispensable.

In the side hall, Xun Zhen and other court ladies who were competing for the female history spot this time were all waiting eagerly, not knowing who would be lucky enough to be promoted, but Yu Ruyi, who had already been a female history with a tray, twitched his mouth and stuffed the tray into Xun Zhen's mouth. "Put this tray back in the cupboard."

"Yu Ruyi, don't you know how to let go of your own hands?" Seeing this, Lu Rong looked displeased.

"I ordered an unranked court lady to do something, what are you doing?"

"Zhen'er will definitely be in the same position as you this time, you..."

Xun Zhen pulled Lu Rong over. This was not the first time Yu Ruyi used an excuse to support her, "Don't talk about Rong Rong, why don't you just put a plate? Can it still be difficult for me? I am not without hands and feet." , I can’t even put a plate.”

As soon as her words fell, people around gradually sneered, this Xun Zhen also had a lot of fun in his words, but he satirized that Yu Ruyi had no hands or feet, and couldn't even put a tray on it.

"Don't accuse Sang and scold Huai here, you are not a female historian yet, it is reasonable for me to support you." Yu Ruyi stared at the surroundings, and her face was a little red.

Xun Zhen blinked his innocent eyes and looked at Yu Ruyi, "I didn't say that, did you misunderstand? Yu Nushi, if your ears and mind are not working well, don't delay, you should hurry up and prescribe the side medicine, don't you?" The illness has been delayed." After finishing speaking, she stopped talking to Yu Ruyi and turned around to put the tray away, the two of them had deep grievances, blindly forbearance is not the answer.

Lu Rong patted Yu Ruyi's shoulder with a sympathetic look, "Yu Ruyi, are you really sick?"

"You are sick." Yu Ruyi pushed Lu Rong away, looking at Xun Zhen's back with hatred.

Xun Zhen had just put away his things in the utensil room, and when he closed the door and came out, he happened to see Lu Rong happily running towards her, "Zhener, it's done, the Master Si Zhi has announced just now, you are on the list this time .”

Xun Zhen's body was hugged by Lu Rong, and he immediately leaned back, "Rong Rong, you are going to overwhelm me."

It was only then that Lu Rong blushed. Her body was much stronger than Xun Zhen's. Seeing Xun Zhen's faint smile, "What? Are you unhappy?"

"This is expected. It's not like what you often say. If I can't be elected this time, it will be too unreasonable." Xun Zhen joked.

"You're really calm, aren't you afraid that Mr. Shanggong will suppress you again?" Lu Rong pouted.

"Rongrong, Mrs. Shanggong has worked hard, she is doing it for my own good." Xun Zhen said.

As early as two years ago, she knew Xu You's intentions. In this harem, there are many people with talents and outstanding craftsmanship, but the people who can climb up in the end are not this group of people, but those who know how to suppress their ambitions in their hearts. Man, if she got the opportunity early, I'm afraid she would become a lot more frivolous, so Xu You chose to hit her life at that time and grind her temper.

I still remember that when Xu You asked her, she also suppressed the sadness in her heart. She was obviously much better than others, so why couldn't she be appreciated?Without these two years of tempering, she would not be as calm as she is now.

"You, you are too tolerant." Lu Rong patted her hand, "If I were, I would have gone to Mr. Shanggong to complain, and I have taught you so hard on weekdays. The one who pulls the apprentice back? Why do you have good intentions? Only you will believe this."

"Hush, you're outspoken again." Xun Zhen raised his finger.

Only then did Lu Rong pat her small mouth, and then laughed loudly, "Come on, I'll treat you to some snacks, which were rewarded by Concubine Shu last time. It was specially brought to entertain you."
