The concubine is also very good today

Chapter 209 Going to Dali Temple Prison to Take Office

When Xu Ruyi heard this, she felt that something was wrong, and she hurriedly asked: "Then what kind of petty official is the imperial grandmother planning to arrange for him?"

"Don't you just want to give him an official status? It's good to be like the fifth son-in-law. You don't need to do much, and you can spend more time with you on weekdays."

Xu Ruyi frowned slightly.

When did she convey this meaning to Queen Mother Jiang?
Maybe Empress Dowager Jiang thought she and Xu Changjiao had the same brain circuit?
That's not right, Xu Changjiao also hopes that Qi Teng can expand his official position.

For a moment, Xu Ruyi suddenly realized that she and Xu Changjiao did not go well in the matter of becoming an official son-in-law, because Empress Dowager Jiang had already seen that these two son-in-laws were not suitable for being an official.

Whether the two have official luck, they can only take the opportunity to find out by themselves.

"Dali Temple has a lot of jobs for underdogs. If he likes watching prisons, let him be a jailer. If he does well, he can be promoted to a jailer."

After Xu Ruyi heard this, she tried her best to control her expression, not even showing the slightest hint of disgust.

If Xu Ruyi disliked these drudgery tasks, it would only convince Empress Dowager Jiang that she just wanted to be an official.

Xu Ruyi then thanked Empress Dowager Jiang, and then changed the subject: "Recently, Xiao'er is not in the palace to accompany the imperial grandmother, and it seems that the palace is much deserted."

Empress Dowager Jiang said with a smile: "The old bones of the Ai family need to rest more. Xiao'er went to the East Palace recently, and the Ai family feels much cleaner."

As for Xu Mingxiao's life recently, Xu Ruyi didn't know about it. She had visited the brat a few times. The little bastard who only bullies the weak and fears the hard will should be more arrogant, but judging by his attitude, it must be Concubine Rong who said something to him in private.

If so, then Concubine Rong is quite sensible, she knew that since Xu Ruyi could push him up, it would not be difficult for her to pull Xu Mingxiao down from the East Palace.

Entering the palace this time, Xu Ruyi was not in the mood to care about Xu Mingxiao's situation.

On the contrary, she was a little worried about Jing Yu's situation.

After all, the place Empress Dowager Jiang asked him to go to was the prison cell of Dali Temple. Xu Ruyi didn't know if Jing Yu could stand that kind of place.

After going home and talking about the matter with Jing Yu, Jing Yu was really frightened.

"Go to be a jailer in the cell of Dali Temple? No, is the aunt playing with me?"

Is that a job that ordinary people can do?If he is going to do this, then he might as well run the shop with Xu Ruyi!

However, Xu Ruyi said helplessly: "It can only be said that in the eyes of the aunt, you are not reliable, and she dare not reuse you. It is such a big position that I won for you. I I know you don't want to go, and I don't want you to go, but if you refuse, even the officials will think you are not suitable for an official, and you will have no chance in the future."

Jing Yu can also understand this truth.

but……

It's outrageous!
"This is not as good as Qi Teng's official position!"

Xu Ruyi chuckled lightly: "It's really interesting to talk about it. In the eyes of the aunt, you and Qi Teng are the same, and you are not good enough to become a great talent. Now you two are on the same side. Let's see who can be better." Let's win!"  …

Originally, Xu Ruyi thought that Jing Yu could compete with Jing Xi, but the fact is that the position of servant of the household department is not something he can get.

Xu Ruyi was afraid that Jing Yu would not be able to accept it, so she added: "However, I think you are different from Qi Teng in terms of mentality. You're going to die of old age, but you still want to move on, don't you?"

Now, does Jing Yu have the right to refuse?

Empress Dowager Jiang must be waiting to see Jing Yu's attitude now, if Jing Yu shrinks back, there will be no chance in the future.

In the end, Jing Yu agreed to take office tomorrow.

The night before taking office, Jing Yu completely suffered from insomnia.

As usual, he suffered from insomnia after putting Xu Ruyi to sleep.

Jing Yu has been thinking about the significance of her choice of this path.

To be honest, he really wasn't running away anymore.

But every day he stayed in the capital made him feel extremely tired, completely exhausted.

That kind of feeling, even when I went to sea in my previous life, I never had it.

He couldn't think of the reason why he walked this road, except for Xu Ruyi to live in safety, he couldn't find a second reason to go forward.

Strangely enough, he doesn't need to think about the second reason now.

But surviving this is hard enough.

……

The next day, Jing Yu stepped into the carriage to Dali Temple.

Before leaving, Xu Ruyi went to the door to see him off, and stuffed him with some golden sore medicine, so that he would not be hurt by the instruments of torture.

Jing Yu was almost amused by her.

"I have already practiced from the Evergreen Palace, why am I still afraid of this?"

Xu Ruyi said worriedly: "Who knows what's going to happen? Take it all with you!"

Anyway, it was given by my aunt, so he took it with him.

Of course, Xu Ruyi wanted to give him more than that.

Not long after, Xu Ruyi brought another candied haws, handed it to Jing Yu and said, "Take it! Eat it on the way!"

Jing Yu asked in surprise, "Where did you buy it this early in the morning?"

"Last night, I told Xingtao to go to Zaoji today to buy one for you, and to eat a candied haws in the morning. The mood will be sweet all day long."

Just hearing this, Jing Yu already felt very sweet.

Jing Yu then said: "Okay! Listen to you!"

After finishing speaking, Jing Yu took the candied haws, picked up a piece and ate it.

However, during the conversation between the two, a voice suddenly came from behind Xu Ruyi: "Yo! Are you going to take office? What a coincidence!"

Xu Ruyi turned her head and saw that it was Jing Xi who came!
Jing Xi was riding a horse at the moment to go to the Ministry of Households, and happened to run into Jing Yu, so the corner of his mouth twitched with a smile and said: "I don't know where the second brother is going to take office?"

Xu Ruyi replied in a cold voice: "You hurry up and go, and then greet here, and be careful that you will be punished for being late."

Jing Xi knew that Xu Ruyi would have this attitude, but the more she had this attitude, the more he wanted to stay here so as to tease her.

"What? I, the eldest brother, can't ask about the younger brother's recent situation?"

Xu Ruyi looked at his uncomfortable appearance, and replied bluntly: "I still pretended not to know about the things I found out yesterday, why can't you be a little more frank?"

As soon as these words fell, Jing Xi's face immediately darkened.

"It seems that you like to be frank. I know this, so I wish my second brother a smooth job in the cell of Dali Temple."
