The Fugitive White Moonlight of a Powerful Minister

  Linglan felt very strange.

  Since she came to the East Palace, her girl has kept her habit of being in the Duke's Mansion, and she is still not required to serve her at night.

  But the huge sleeping hall cannot be the same as in Qinghui Hall, where there is not even a guard.

  Therefore, no matter how many nights there were, there were several maids waiting outside the palace.

  But when she came back this morning, she heard that all the palace officials, big and small, had been dismissed last night, leaving none behind.

   Until His Highness the Crown Prince came out of the palace in the early morning, a group of people still didn't know whether they should enter the palace or not, and they were all waiting for her to come back and go in to find out.

  When she entered, she saw her own girl lying on the bed, her eyes were red, if not for the maids who said that His Highness looked in a good mood when he left, she would have thought that the two had quarreled again.

   "Go... go and dismantle that swing outside!" Before she could ask, Wen Ning reprimanded her in a low voice, her voice still a little hoarse.

  Her girl likes to sit on the swing to bask in the sun, and my uncle specially moved here from the Duke's Mansion.

  Why did Haoduanduan have to be dismantled?

   Without waiting for her to ask, Wen Ning reprimanded again in a low voice: "Naughty things!"

  Linglan: Silver?

  The swing is either made of wood or straw ropes. Where did the silver come from?

  Linglan was in a daze, before she could react, her arm was grabbed by Wen Ning: "Linglan, you must..."

  Choose a good husband-in-law!

  Your girl, I suffered a lot because of you!

   "Girl, what is this..."

  Before she finished speaking, Wen Ning had already covered her head with the quilt: "I'll make up for it, you go and dismantle that swing and throw it away! I don't want to see it again!"

   Just like that, the most "favored" swing in the East Palace disappeared inexplicably.

   Of course, no one cares about this small change.

  Because in a few days, there was an exciting news from the palace.

   It is said that His Royal Highness said that the spring is long, and when the muscles and bones are loosened, the civil servants and generals of the East Palace are specially allowed to have a Cuju competition.

  His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been in charge of the East Palace for a whole year. Except when facing the Crown Princess, he has always been deep and cold. Why has he ever said such a thing?

   And the cuju competition!

   Just thinking about it is very lively!

  The little ladies in the East Palace were all very excited.

  Who doesn’t like to see young masters profusely and sweat profusely in the arena? !

  Wen Ning was very satisfied with Pei You's efficiency, and didn't care about whether he was swinging or not.

  There are so many young masters, she loves to watch them too!

  Secretly looking for Gu Fei, telling him to make sure to arrange all the princes on the small portrait.

  But I don't want this competition, it's far more lively than expected.

  Probably because there have been a lot of things in Beijing and China in recent years, and there has not been such an easy game for a long time, or it may be that there are too many people who want to curry favor with His Highness the Crown Prince.

  As soon as the news of the East Palace Cuju competition spread, the sons and daughters of various officials and aristocratic families sent posts one after another, expressing their desire to join in the fun and join in.

   "Okay!" Wen Ning was very generous, "When the time comes, we will be on one team and they will be on one team. The two sides will have preliminary rounds respectively, and then we will have a final together. Wouldn't it be better?"

  Who wouldn't love to have more dudes to watch? !

   "Since all the young masters are here, why not invite all the girls and wives from every family."

  Wen Ning's calculations continued to rattle.

  Beautiful spring day, call Duan Rushuang and He Luan, it will be interesting to watch together!

   "As long as you don't bother."

   This game was originally saved for her, and Pei You naturally would not object to Wen Ning's idea.

   "No trouble no trouble!"

  She is worried that she has nothing to do!

  In this way, what was originally a competition within the Eastern Palace turned into a grand event in the entire capital led by the Eastern Palace.

  Wen Ning asked Pei You to call Gu Fei to her, and things got settled quickly.

  There used to be quite a small archery field in the East Palace, but with a little modification, it would be perfect for a Cuju field.

  Wen Ning asked people to imitate the Colosseum where they watched the circus last time, and built many stands nearby, which looked good.

  As for the competition system, those Wen Ning outside the palace don't care, how to decide the most powerful team is their own business.

  In the East Palace, civil servants and generals will draw lots and form teams randomly.

  Wen Ning set aside half a month for them to practice running-in.

  In addition, she went to Pei You's warehouse to pick out eleven luminous pearls.

  Since it's a competition, there must be a lottery, right?

   At that time, the winning team will have one person, which is fair and decent.

  Wen Ning was in full swing preparing on the other side, and the match schedule was also set.

  The final match is scheduled for the tenth day of April, and the preliminary round in the East Palace will be after the daily off-duty.

  For this reason, she approached Pei You again, and specially allowed all officials to come on duty half an hour earlier this month.

  Everything is ready, the only thing left is to start the game!

  One day before the start of the preliminary round, Wen Qi actually came to her and said that he also wanted to play cuju, but he didn't get the lottery, and asked her, a younger sister, to let her through the back door.

  Wen Ning refused without hesitation.

  He didn't draw the lottery, didn't she arrange it on purpose?

  He already has sister Rushuang, so he still wants to show off on this occasion? !

   On the day of the preliminary round, Wen Ning geared up to dress up Linglan beautifully, and then stuffed all the little statues into her sleeves.

   At that time, the little statue and the person will meet, so it is convenient to find Gu Fei for information.

   Finally passed noon, and was about to take Linglan to the Cuju field, when Pei You sent someone over.

   "Your Majesty, please go to the meeting hall, Your Highness."

  Go to the meeting hall at this time?

  He won't... want to go see it with her?

  Wen Ning didn't want him to go at all.

  He has gone, how can she discuss with Linglan which man seems more desirable?

  But this time in the Cuju competition, Pei You really contributed a lot.

  Wen Ning thought about it, forget it, as a human being, you can't be ungrateful and tear down bridges.

  Let Linglan go to the Cuju field to wait for her, and she followed the palace servants to the meeting hall.

  The officials in the meeting hall have not dispersed.

  Wen Ning glanced silently.

  The head is Gu Fei's immediate boss, and Pei You is the most like-minded... Bah, the like-minded Zhan Shifu Zhan Shi is also the second place in the list who earned five thousand taels of silver for her back then, Liu Ye.

   Behind him were three officials from Zhan Shifu, whom Wen Ning also recognized.

   There is another person next to him, Pei You's former immediate boss, Minister of Industry Zhang Guozhang.

   Several people have long been used to the prince leading her, the princess, in and out of the meeting hall.

  Wen Ning was also sensible. After politely meeting the ceremony, she went to wait on the low couch in the side hall.

  It was always like this when she came here before, when Pei You discussed matters, she read the script by herself.

  But today she has been thinking about the game outside, and she doesn't have much interest in reading the notebook.

   Pretending to turn the pages, resting his chin to look out the window.

  It is inevitable to hear what they are discussing.

   It will be summer in a few months, and the middle and lower reaches of the Chu River will be prone to flooding in summer.

  Emperor Jiahe handed over the task of reinforcing the embankment to Pei You this year.

  So the Minister of the Ministry of Industry was also there, and several people discussed where and who should start to strengthen the embankment.

  Wen Ning listened and wandered away.

  Pei You said that he dreamed of his whole life in three days, but he didn't know if the dream was detailed enough?

  In the summer of the eighteenth year of Jiahe, there was only the Xuanping Rebellion, but no floods.

  But it is not a bad thing to do it every year to strengthen the embankment.

  Wen Ning thought boredly, subconsciously glanced at Kelou.

  The game starts now!

   "Your Highness, I'm afraid I need to invite Mr. Zhao to discuss the budget here." Zhang Guozhang just said.

  When it comes to the budget, the Master Zhao he is talking about must be Zhao Zhai, Minister of the Household Department.

  Wen Ning was overjoyed, Zhao Zhai is not here, it's time to end, let's talk tomorrow?

  I didn't want Pei You to raise her voice, and said to the outside of the hall: "Fourteen, go to the household department to pick up Mr. Zhao."

  Wen Ning breathed out.

  Go to the household department to pick up people, and they will discuss it again. What time is it?

   No, can't wait any longer.

   She has been looking forward to it for a long time!

  Wen Ning remained calm, watching those people start discussing again, twitching, quietly...moving to the side door of the side hall.

  His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a lot going on every day, so of course she shouldn't be bothered, just sneak out.

   Before the man reached the door, he heard a call from behind: "Ma'am."

  Pei You said in a rather gentle voice, "Make a cup of tea."

  Wen Ning: "..."

   I had no choice but to go back to the low couch, pour him a cup of tea and send it over.

  When everyone saw this, they got used to it, and the discussion did not stop.

  Zhang Guozhang: "Your Highness will go to this matter personally. Lin Shilang is quite experienced in this matter. In previous years, he did it himself."

  Liu Ye: "Since His Majesty entrusted the errands to the East Palace, there is no reason to entrust all of them to the Ministry of Industry. Mr. Zhang, how about Wen Fucheng of Zhan Shifu and Lin Shilang going together?"

  Wen Ning put down the teacup, turned around and wanted to leave.

  Pei You grabbed his wrist.

  The table case just blocked the movement of the two of them, Wen Ning frowned and winked at him: What are you doing? I'll take a step first, the game is about to start!

  Pei You glanced at the empty chair next to her and motioned her to sit down.

don't want!

  The game is about to start.

   Today's preliminary competition is the day when the men on the statue are the most complete.

  Pei You squinted.

  It's fine if he's present, but if he's not present, she still wants to join the crowd of men?

  Wen Ning wanted to shake her hand.

  Pei You buckled even tighter.

   "Of course it would be best if Zhan Shifu has someone to go with him." Zhang Guozhang reported to the superior, "I don't know what your Highness thinks?"

  Pei You retracted his gaze nonchalantly: "Yes."

  Wen Ning took the opportunity to grab it hard, but she didn't want Pei You to buckle it as tightly as before, it seemed that she was too hard, and there was a snap—

   He threw the small statue in his sleeve to the ground.

   Fortunately, the statuettes were all stamped, so Wen Ning hurried to pick them up.

  But the door of the palace was pushed open at this moment: "Your Highness, Mr. Zhao is here."

  As soon as the door opened, a gust of wind rushed in.

   "Hey..." Wen Ning was about to pick it up, but unexpectedly, an evil wind blew the stack of small statues into pieces.

  So everyone in the meeting hall waited, and saw a stack of papers suddenly thrown out of their princess sleeves.

   A gust of wind blew up the paper.

  There are all kinds of men painted on it.

  Suave, elegant, honest, honest...

  It seems that they are all subordinates of the Eastern Palace?

   Several lines of sight looked at Wen Ning at the same time.

  Wen Ning's hairs all over her body were about to stand on end, when she heard the person next to her throw down the official document in her hand: "Heh."

  Wen Ning: Yes, finish.
