Work overtime

Chapter 401 Checking Progress

After Jiang Xian left, according to the emperor's order, he arranged a soft sedan for Jiang Yuebai and sent her back to Taorui Palace.

It had only been two days, but Jiang Yuebai felt like he was in a different world.

Jiang Yuebai was suddenly promoted from a wealthy nobleman to a concubine of Rui. The faces of the palace people in Taorui Palace were all beaming with joy and pride.Everyone said sweet congratulations, Jiang Yuebai took some money, regarded it as welfare, and distributed it to the palace people.

This speed of promotion made her three soldiers, Liang Xiaobao, Su Su and Baitao, remember what the young master said when they met the little master on the first day, "My little master, I am very capable, my family is rich, and I am the best at promotion." .Sure enough, there was no bragging.There is no one in the harem who rises faster than my own mistress.Everyone was glad in their hearts that they had followed the right master, and they were determined to do a good job.

Even Su Su, who has always been the calmest, tried her best to restrain herself but still smiled from ear to ear: "The young master is now a concubine. No one who lives in this palace dares to gossip anymore."

Jiang Yuebai smiled and said, "Thanks to you for taking care of me these days. Jinxiu must not have made anyone worry."

"Being able to serve these two young masters is a blessing that this slave has earned over many lifetimes."

But there was still a strong smell of pepper in the main hall, reminding Jiang Yuebai of the oolong incident that had happened here.

Suddenly feeling itchy in his nose, Jiang Yuebai sneezed several times one after another.

Susu immediately came closer to serve her and explained, "My dear, I opened all the windows in the house during the day, but the smell still doesn't get out."

Jiang Yuebai was busy wiping her tears and nose. She wanted to sneeze but couldn't, so she didn't say anything.

Liang Xiaobao suddenly panicked, thinking that the empress was angry, and immediately knelt on the ground with an annoyed look on his face. "This slave has made a big mistake, please punish me."

It was the emperor and Eunuch Xu that night!I am so blind!

I thought to myself that if the master hadn't been favored, he might have died that night.

He quickly said sincerely: "I am willing to work as a cow or a horse to atone for my sins."

Jiang Yuebai only felt funny when he thought about the chaotic scene that night.I can also understand the loyalty of my subordinates.Liang Xiaobao is still a bit quick-witted. If the emperor was not the one who came that night, he would really be able to defeat the weak with the strong.

Beating workers can understand beating workers.There are many mistakes made by subordinates that are really not intentional.There is no need to become a petty official to feel arrogant and great.

Jiang Yuebai said calmly: "Get up. Don't be so reckless next time. How have you memorized poems these days?"

Liang Xiaobao burst into tears of gratitude. When his master asked about work, he immediately got very energetic.These days, all the old employees of Tao Rui Palace are involved.

"Back to the young master, the three slaves have memorized all two books. There are only a few poems that are not very proficient in memorizing."

Jiang Yuebai was a little surprised. It had only been ten days, but he had already memorized 120 poems. He was in great spirits!

She couldn't help but sincerely praise: "You have memorized more than 100 poems so quickly. Not bad, quite good."

The hard work paid off, and the three slaves were overjoyed to be praised by their little master. They exchanged "yeah" looks with each other and even straightened their backs.

Baitao couldn't help but said proudly: "If you don't believe me, little master, you can check us randomly."

If your subordinates have achieved results and want to perform well, there is no reason not to support them.

Jiang Yuebai nodded and said with a smile, "Okay. Then I will sing a song "Quiet Night Autumn Thoughts"."

The three people exchanged glances and recited it clearly, smoothly and emotionally, without missing a word.

Jiang Yuebai did not hesitate to express his approval: "Not bad!" Next, he moved up the difficulty level and ordered another song about Die Lianhua written by Li Beichen.

There was a difference between the three people in this piece. Su Su recited it most smoothly and accurately. Liang Xiaobao needed to stop and think about it, while Baitao forgot the words and recited the wrong words in two places.

It's fine now, the cowhide has just been blown off and a big hole has been made.

Facing the uneasiness of the three people, Jiang Yuebai smiled and said, "You have to work harder and don't let me down next time!"

"Yes, little master." The three of them replied in unison, as if they had endless energy in them.

But the smile on Jiang Yuebai's face gradually faded, while he drank hot tea and looked thoughtfully at the two begonia flowers outside.

Susu saw the bruises on Jiang Yuebai's face. Although she didn't dare to ask directly, she was careful and guessed that it was a beating by Concubine Jing.

Feeling distressed and worried, I thought about it again and again, and then said: "Your Majesty, I am alone with the Emperor. I want to follow you and serve you. Is it okay, Your Majesty?"

Liang Xiaobao also immediately echoed, "Taorui Palace has minions and Baitao, as well as Xiao Luozi, Qing'er, and Wanxiang, so there will definitely be no problem."

Jiang Yuebai came back to her senses and understood Su Su's thoughts. She touched her cheek casually and smiled lightly:

"I can rest assured that you are in Taorui Palace. If the emperor is promoted to a higher rank, and we are happy, naturally some people will be unhappy. It is okay to make people angry, and your little master is not a vegetarian. I don't care about these things. You guys Don’t worry, just do your part.”

"But..." Baitao looked at his master's face distressedly, "But you don't slap someone in the face."

The most taboo thing in the workplace is having a low status, weak ability, and poor self-esteem.

Only when there is something impressive about you, will the other person respect you from the bottom of your heart.Otherwise, it may appear that you are being respected, but it is actually just a courtesy from others.

Jiang Yuebai smiled and said, "I have told you before that face is not given by others, but earned by yourself. Take your time, the days are long. Among the newly sent people, there must be other people's eyeliners. I am not in Taorui Palace. , you must be extra vigilant and don't be caught by others. Stick to one thing, don't cause trouble, don't be afraid of trouble."

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, feeling the trust placed in them by their master and the heavy responsibility on their shoulders.

"Please don't worry, my queen. I will keep this in mind."

At this point, Liang Xiaobao told Jiang Yuebai that Xiao Luozi was suspicious of the new eunuch Xiao Xizi, who was the eunuch who shouted "catch the assassin" that night.

Xiao Luozi discovered that Xiao Xizi was not fainted from fright, but was knocked unconscious.As a person sent by Emperor An, he knew that Taorui Palace was protected by secret guards, so he immediately guessed that Xiao Xizi's identity was suspicious.After two days of preliminary investigation and tracking, it was initially determined that Xiao Xizi was sent by Concubine Jing.

Liang Xiaobao asked hesitantly: "Xiao Xizi belongs to Concubine Jing. Do you want to find a way to drive Xiao Xizi out of Taorui Palace?"

Jiang Yuebai shook his head, "No need. According to Concubine Jing's temperament, if Xiao Xizi is gone, there will be someone else, and it will be more troublesome to guard against him. Just treat him normally, keep an eye on him, and tell him the truth and lies. . Concubine Jing Youxi has had her fetus again, and will soon be taken back her palace rights and confined to the Yongshou Palace. A tiger with its teeth pulled out is just a paper tiger."

Everyone nodded desperately.

The master has assigned them a new task, and they have something to do again. It's great.

Jiang Yuebai thought in her heart that if she took action against Concubine Jing, it might hurt people's lives, or even kill two people, which made her somewhat hesitant.

However, the fight against barbarians in the harem may seem ridiculous, but those who are deeply involved in the situation often have no choice but to fight to the death.
