first class maid

Chapter 22 The tip of the iceberg (2)
Mo Huayi patted her hand, and comforted her: "Ruyi, why are you so timid? So you still want to seek revenge from Xun Zhen? You can't take care of even a small matter, so how can you do big things in the future? If I get the chance, you will be indispensable." Good point, do you still have a chance to trouble Xun Zhen in the future?"

Yu Ruyi is not a fool either, the position of Dianzhi is vacant, no matter who is promoted, the position of Handmaiden must be vacant, and the person who can take this position must be Mo Huayi, she also has a secretary What about my aunt?Thinking of this relationship, her heart settled down. "Don't forget what you said, or it will be terrible if it is found out that I secretly changed the blueprint of that idiot Lu Rong."

"Don't worry." Mo Huayi smiled and squeezed the blueprint in his hand, as long as it is destroyed, there will be no evidence left.

"You said the blueprints are missing?" Xu You looked at Xun Zhen and Lu Rong who came to her late at night, and asked with raised eyebrows.

Lu Rong was so anxious that she looked at Xun Zhen as if crying, knelt down and said, "Master Shanggong, the sachet embroidered for Concubine Shu was really not my carelessness, but it was embroidered according to the drawings given by Zhuang Dianzhi. Now I looked back but couldn’t find it no matter what, so I had no choice but to explain everything to Mr. Shanggong.”

"Sir Shanggong, it seems that this matter is not the fault of Zhuang Dianzhi alone. This subordinate... always feels that there is someone behind him. If it wasn't for the disappearance of Rongrong's blueprint, this subordinate would not have guessed so." Xun Zhen said.

Xu You got up and walked lightly out of the window, looking at the half-bright lights in the dark night, turned around after a long while and said: "You two don't mention this matter anymore, Lu Rong, you hurry up and draw a picture and hand it over to me." Go back and file."

"Master Shanggong?" Xun Zhen refused to accept.

"Xun Zhen, remember what I said." Xu You's expression turned cold, and he raised his voice.

"But……"

"There's nothing but Zhuang Cui'e. Today is what she asked for. Don't let the hard work I've spent on you for the past two years go to waste. It's late at night. Go back." Xu You ignored them and issued an order to drive them away.

Xun Zhen wanted to say something more, but seeing Xu You's cold face, he bowed to Lu Rong and left.

On the corridor, Lu Rong turned her face sideways and said puzzledly: "Really, that Zhuang Cui'e is nothing, why do you still stand up for her? Don't forget that we suffered a lot from her when we were young?"

But Xun Zhen said: "Rongrong, it's not that I want to stand up for her, I'm just afraid..." What are you afraid of?It's hard for her to say this, if Lord Shanggong is willing to investigate thoroughly now, she is not afraid that this matter will cause disasters in the future, but Lord Shanggong will not release it.

"Zhen'er, I think you've really become a frightened bird this time, and you can't stand any storms. Don't worry, Mr. Shanggong is not the kind of person who refuses to save you?" Lu Rong still smiled and put Xun Zhen on her arm. Hand, "Go, go to my place for some snacks."

Xun Zhen flicked Lu Rong's forehead, "I know how to eat all day long." Anyway, this matter is not bothering her, so why not be happy?Thinking of this, she relaxed again, and walked in this corridor talking and laughing with Lu Rong.

Xu You was still standing in front of the window looking at the dark night and didn't know what he was thinking, when suddenly the door frame rang, and said rather displeasedly: "Didn't I let you go back? Don't bring this up again..."

"Oh, so angry." Situ Shanggong leaned against the door frame and looked at her with a smile.

"Why are you here?" When Xu You heard this voice, the expression on his face became even more indifferent. "I thought you were still in Fengyi Palace right now?"

"Come and care about old friends, can't you? Something big happened to you here today." Situ Shanggong seemed to ignore Xu You's cold face, and walked in and sat on the imperial concubine's couch beside him, "Why, there is no tea at all. bowl?"

"Go back if you want tea, I don't have any tea for you here." Xu You would go back to the embroidery and continue to stitch.

Situ Shanggong didn't get angry this time, and said in a calm voice, "Xu You, I didn't come to argue with you, do you know this is unusual?" He got up and walked to her side, putting his hand on her shoulder.

Xu You's expression seemed to be touched by something dirty, his shoulders shook, and he stood up and avoided with displeasure, "Are you here to convey the Queen's order? Are you going to remove me?"

A trace of anger flashed in Situ Shanggong's eyes, is she a scourge?Why does Xu You look down on her?He rushed forward and grabbed Xu You's collar, "Are you just looking down on me like this? Xu You..." Seeing the disgust in her eyes, she let go of her hand angrily, took a deep breath, "Xu You, you understand Knowing that the empress will not dismiss you, although the Shanggong Bureau is not as good as the other bureaus, but this position is special, she is the most at ease only if you sit on it, and everything is for the prince." Whispered in Xu You's ear A few words.

Xu You didn't make a sound, just stood there indifferently, how many times in her dreams she would dream of what happened back then, if it wasn't for the trick of this man in front of her, she would have feigned death and left the palace back then, but now there is her here. He also couldn't let go of his concern, "Don't worry, tell the empress, I will stand still now, since everyone's goals are the same, I will also turn a blind eye."

"That's good, this matter will try not to involve you...and that little maid named Xun Zhen." Situ Shanggong sent a reassurance. "But you have to be strict with your subordinates."

The next day, Xie Sizhi went to the Guiqi Palace where Concubine Feng lived in the name of sending clothes, and went to the inner hall under the guidance of the little maid, and saw Concubine Feng drinking medicine under the service of her confidant eunuch. Er wiped the concoction stained on the small mouth of the cherry, and with a wave of her plain hand, all the palace people bowed and retreated.

Xie Sizhi presented the clothes, "Your Majesty, it's already done, please have a look."

Concubine Feng didn't look at the clothes on top, but picked up the sachet under the clothes and smelled it, her somewhat morbidly beautiful face smiled alluringly, "This is the smell."

"Mother, if Xu Shanggong finds out about this, I'm afraid I'll be overwhelmed and walk around, let alone get my hands on the position of Shanggong." Xie Sizhi reminded.

"Why are you panicking? This matter is still up to me. I can't become a big fat man with one bite. Naturally, I have plenty of patience." Concubine Feng regained her usual gentle smile on her face.
