Chapter 22: Cows are flying all over the sky, who is in trouble
While the two were checking the tea cups, Chu Liuzheng told Caiyue some precautions.
For example, what kind of tea did the ministers prefer? What kind of tea did Emperor Shunguang like to drink the most? What kind of refreshments should be paired with it? Emperor Shunguang's preference for tea cups, when should the tea be hotter, when should the tea be warmer, and what kind of water should be used? Better tea, etc., something she had told dozens of times to different people.
Caiyue listened obediently and responded occasionally, her attitude was serious, and the work she was doing did not slow down.
Chu Liuzheng was quite satisfied, but she had already been tricked once by Cuiyun, who looked cute but was actually dark-hearted. Seeing this similar style again would inevitably lead to pts.
What if this is also a sweet-talking little bitch?
Quietly opening the system, Chu Liuzheng planned to check the background of this girl Caiyue.
【House of Internal Affairs, Caiyue...】
【Um? 】
Chu Liuzheng looked at her for a moment, this girl had some background.
[Half a month ago, Caiyue broke the vase and was transferred from the Queen Mother's Longevity Palace to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. After working as a chore in the House of Internal Affairs for three days, he was assigned to clean the Imperial Garden. Yesterday, he was selected by Manager Zhou of the House of Internal Affairs to serve tea in front of the Imperial Palace. 】
This resume... tsk tsk, which palace maid broke the master's things and wasn't punished to a hard and tiring place like the Clothing Bureau?
Even if the Queen Mother is merciful, the palace servants who have made mistakes will not be able to enter the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which is like hot cakes. At most, they will be sent to serve some low-ranking concubines, such as attendants, Baolin, talents, beauties and so on.
There was also the time when Caiyue was fined from the Longevity Palace. If she remembered correctly, half a month ago, it happened to be the time when Jiang Wantang was transferred from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to the Wenhua Palace.
This is...a bit of a coincidence.
Chu Liuzheng entered the palace at the age of twelve and has been in the palace for five years. The experience of these five years has taught her that in this palace, the last thing to believe is the so-called coincidence.
Looking forward from the result, Caiyue has now come to the Wenhua Palace to serve, and the original purpose should be the same.
So, Caiyue is the spy sent by the Queen Mother?
But everything is fine, why did the Queen Mother suddenly send an informant to the imperial court?
The emperor was taboo about this, and the current Queen Mother was not Emperor Shunguang's biological mother. If Emperor Shunguang noticed this, wouldn't the relationship between mother and son, which they had maintained well, deteriorate?
Chu Liuzheng thought for a moment and decided to dig deeper into Caiyue's line.
She couldn't afford to offend the Queen Mother, and even if she saw something, she couldn't control it.
Caiyue, on the other hand, if Caiyue wants to become a demon, she must be careful not to be dragged into the water by Caiyue.
[Hmm... Caiyue entered the palace at the age of fourteen. She is seventeen this year. After entering the palace, she was assigned to the Queen Mother's Wanshou Palace and was responsible for the cleaning work in the palace. 】
[There is not much material in these daily routines, so let’s look through them further. 】
【Um? Caiyue turned out to be from an official family. Her father was the magistrate of Dehua County, Quanzhou Prefecture. Her mother died young and she had two younger brothers at home, both born to her stepmother. 】
[Strange, how could a good official lady enter the palace and become a maid? It's better to marry anyone casually than to enter the palace. Besides, with Caiyue's appearance, if she really wants to enter the palace, she can choose a beautiful girl no matter what, right? The year she entered the palace happened to be shortly after the new emperor ascended the throne, and there was a large selection of women to expand the harem. 】
Chu Liuzheng was puzzled and continued to search.
[Well... draft... enter the palace... enter the palace...]
【Ah this! Caiyue was unwilling to participate in the draft because she was afraid of the tyrant's reputation for cruelty, but her family insisted on forcing her to go. As soon as she was anxious, she participated in the selection of a palace maid and successfully entered the palace. 】
[This girl actually bribed someone to dress up as a young eunuch and go to her home to announce the good news. Even now, her family still thinks that she has really become Emperor Shunguang's concubine and is enjoying happiness in the harem. 】
【I’m going! Don't be too outrageous! 】Chu Liuzheng was speechless. She was forced to enter the palace because of life. But this one was better off because she was forced by her family to make a stupid move.
Even if you pretend to agree to run for election, dress up ugly and get slapped with a brand and go home that day, it's better than staying in the palace, a cannibalistic place, as a palace maid, right?
What is this girl Caiyue thinking?
[Speaking of which, the Queen Mother sent such a person who was afraid of the tyrant to approach the tyrant. Did she really not pick the wrong person? Or is it that the Queen Mother simply wants Caiyue to see what the tyrant is doing every day, and has no intention of letting Caiyue go to the water to seduce the tyrant? 】
Chu Liuzheng searched and searched, and finally found a piece of gossip in the corner.
[A month ago, Caiyue received a letter from home. Her father will go to Beijing next spring to report on his work. He wants Caiyue, his beloved concubine, to blow his pillow and put in a nice word for him in front of His Majesty to find a good official. Caiyue agreed in her reply. 】
Chu Liuzheng: "..."
Cow wow cow!
Those set up by Caiyue have become the tyrant’s favorite concubines. If the concubines in the harem saw this family letter, they would have to tear her alive.
Isn’t this father too arrogant to check for verification? If the tyrant favored any of his concubines, the news would have spread all over the sky, right?
Chu Liuzheng sighed softly. She probably guessed the reason why Caiyue accepted the arrangement of the Queen Mother.
Regardless of whether the Queen Mother had the intention of letting Caiyue seduce the tyrant, Caiyue herself probably had this intention. This girl really wanted to become the tyrant and then help her father find a good official.
well! Eunuch Zhou, you are wrong!
"Sister sighed, are you tired?" Caiyue turned her head and looked at Chu Liuzheng, and said considerately, "If you are tired, sister, go and rest first, let me do this."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
It was not uncommon for old people to bully newcomers in the palace. Caiyue had not only seen it but also been teased. She thought Chu Liuzheng was like this too.
It was just a simple task like checking the tea cups, and it didn't matter if she did it alone.
She doesn't know how to be nice and obedient, but she can do more work. Now she takes the initiative and wants to sell her well in front of Chu Liuzheng so that she can be promoted more in the future.
Chu Liuzheng rejected the tempting proposal to rest aside.
"How can you leave two people's work to you alone?" Chu Liuzheng wiped the ashes on the tea lid with a handkerchief, put it back on the tea bowl, and said quietly, "I don't feel tired, I just sigh. Flying all over the sky, who is in trouble? ”
Don't embarrass her, a little palace maid!
Can it be done?
Just say if you can!
Give her a worry-free partner! !
Caiyue didn't understand. She blinked her eyes and looked at Chu Liuzheng curiously: "What did sister mean?"
Chu Liuzheng felt distressed when he thought of her purpose. He pulled his lips and gave a fake smile, "It's nothing, let's get to work."
"Oh."
*
"Is this the Liuzheng girl in front of me?"
Chu Liuzheng had just returned from visiting Xia Qiaoru in Tai Hospital. When he turned the corner, he suddenly heard someone calling her from behind.
She paused, turned around, and saw an unfamiliar little eunuch running towards her.
"Father-in-law, are you calling me?"
"It's the girl." The little eunuch's cheeks were red as he ran, and he took out a warm letter from his arms, "I am working under Eunuch Chen, Eunuch Chen is too busy to get away, so he asked me to take this letter along the way. A letter was sent to the girl.”
Eunuch Chen's full name is Chen Shouping. He is the purchaser of the imperial kitchen and is mainly responsible for purchasing ingredients out of the palace.
Chu Liuzheng saved Chu Liuzheng once when he was working in a pharmacy. He remembered the favor and helped Chu Liuzheng send a family letter to the Yuelai Inn outside the palace every two months, and then sent it from the Yuelai Inn two days later. Take the reply to the palace and give it to Chu Liuzheng.
