On the fifth day after Wen Xi returned to the palace, someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent over furs for this winter. According to the division of imperial concubines, there are thirty li mink fur and forty Ula mink fur every year, usually at the end of autumn , it does not affect the use of the winter system, but Wen Xi stayed in the palace for a long time, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs couldn't send it to the palace, so it has been delayed until now.

Wen Xi saw that the quantity was not bad, but the quality of the fur was not the best. The mink fur was not the softest and warmest sable among the minks, nor was it the ferret with the best coat color, but the second-class silver mink. The color is silver gray or darker gray yellow!Even though the quality is poor, there are only half of the mink fur, and the other half are miscellaneous furs!

The eunuch who came to deliver the skins was only about twenty, and he hurriedly laughed and said, "Imperial Concubine Rong, this year there are not many mink skins to present, so I used other skins to make up for it! The same is true for other palaces!"

Zhu'er couldn't help but sneered: "The furs of Chengqian Palace have always been the best! Either sables or ferrets, and there were a few black foxes in previous years! Even if mink furs are not enough, we must use good lynx furs. Sea dragon fur or fox fur is also added! These inferior furs are too rough for imperial concubines to reward slaves?! Do other palaces use chinchilla fur, badger fur, otter fur and other inferior furs to make up for the lack of mink fur? ! What is Chengqian Palace, and it is your turn to worship the high and step down?!"

Zhu'er was so merciless, the eunuch blushed and turned pale, and said with force: "Aunt Shen, why bother to get angry at the servant, the servant is just running errands!"

Wen Xi snorted coldly, "The Crown Princess is in charge of the distribution of harem quotas. Do you mean that the Crown Princess asked you to send these inferior skins?!"

When such a question was asked, the eunuch immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly said: "Of course, the empress and concubine of the crown prince has ordered that all the palaces must not be less!"

"It's just that it can't be less?!" Wen Xi sneered again and again, "Is it also allowed by the crown princess to shoddy?!"

That's too listening, and immediately knelt down, and hastily pushed [-]: "The slave is only responsible for delivering the order, and it's all explained by the superior!"

Wen Xi turned to tell Zhu'er: "Go and invite the Crown Princess, I want to ask, what's going on this year? Even my palace is full of such inferior goods, and the other concubines' palaces don't know what it is like." What about my son!" Wen Xi left for three months.It's been four or five days since I came back, and Kangxi never came, so the servants of the Ministry of Internal Affairs have taken a fancy to this, so they are so courageous? !In front of Chengqian Palace, Ling Pu has always been courteous like a grandson, but now his skin is itching!

No idea.Zhu'er actually didn't come back until more than half an hour after going there. Although Yuqing Palace is in the south of the East Sixth Palace, the distance is not too far, so it doesn't take so long as usual.Zhu'er also looked sullen, and said: "Master, the Crown Princess left the palace this morning and went to Chengjun Prince's Mansion. Chengjun Prince's little elder brother is full moon."

"It's just from the concubine's room, but the princess has just gone!" Wen Xi said sarcastically.The third elder brother's concubine Fujin has already given birth to two sons, and now this one is from the concubine Wang's family.Normally, as the crown princess, she doesn't have to go, but now that the crown prince is fighting with the elder brother, will she, the crown princess, also want to win over the third elder brother?Or did they deliberately rush these minions to be presumptuous on the full moon day of King Chengjun's little elder brother? !

After finishing speaking, Wen Xi squinted at the eunuch who had been kneeling on the ground for more than half an hour, "The princess has a lot of things to do every day. Where can I bother you?" Wen Xi said with a smile, and the eunuch was afraid that he was very frightened. The words "every day manages all kinds of opportunities" can only be used on the emperor, and it would be disrespectful for others to use them!Wen Xi's words really hurt her heart!

Wen Xi said again: "I remember, Concubine Hui was asked to take care of the messy affairs of the House of Internal Affairs. Then let Concubine Hui deal with these things and these servants!"

"Imperial Concubine, spare me!" Several eunuchs kowtowed in fright, although they were only a few servants, they knew about the fight between the Crown Prince and Eldest Brother, if they fell into the hands of Eldest Brother's biological mother, Concubine Hui, would they still have a good life? !So I was so frightened that I kowtowed like garlic.

Wen Xi was already tired, so she ordered Xiao Luzi to take a few stout eunuchs to escort her to Concubine Hui's Zhongcui Palace.Wen Xi then went to the Nuan Pavilion and squatted on the beauty's couch for a while.

When I woke up from the afternoon nap, I saw that the hour hand of the western clock had already pointed to the position of two o'clock, so I was about to get up.At present, the Western pendulum clock is still a rare item, and it is just a novelty decoration in the concubine's palace. Few people use it to keep time.

Waking up sleepy, seeing that the sky was dark, he asked Zhu'er: "Is it snowing outside again?"

Zhu'er served Wen Xi with five-spice soup to cleanse her face and hands. The so-called five-spice soup was soaked in water with cassia vitae, cinnamon sticks, green wood, white sandalwood, and poria cocos.Wen Xi is used to adding mint, but there is no mint in winter, so that's the only way to go.

After cleansing her face, Wen Xi didn't intend to go out, so she just touched her face with Snow Lotus Moisturizing Cream as a moisturizer, and used Luo Dai to draw a little eyebrow, that's all.

"Master, Concubine Hui severely punished those slaves. After discussing with Concubine Cheng, they sent them to the Department of Punishment and sent them to Xinzheku after discussing with Concubine Cheng." Zhu'er reported in a calm tone.

This kind of punishment was within Wen Xi's expectation.Not to mention that the elder brother and the prince are tit for tat, Concubine Hui will not let go of this opportunity to suppress the prince. Now that people are handed over to Concubine Hui, she must not dare not to deal with it, otherwise Wen Xi will have a reason to seize her palace power!

Since she didn't plan to go out, she didn't need to dress too brightly, so Wen Xi chose a light lotus purple dress with ruyi patterns, paired with a moon-white pipa lapel, magnolia butterfly pattern, and a silver fox-trimmed waistcoat.After changing her clothes, she leaned on the beauty's couch slantingly, and a maid with good craftsmanship knelt on the footrest to wait on her and squeeze her legs.It's a fairy-like day, but it's a bit boring.

Not long after, I heard a report from the eunuch outside that the Crown Princess asked to see her, saying that she had brought a heavy gift to make amends.

Wen Xi sneered and said, "The princess has a lot of things to do every day, how dare I disturb her time. Let her go back, and accept the things!" Of course, Wen Xi would not refuse a gift to the door, but Too lazy to deal with her face.

Zhu'er counted the things with a smile, and said: "Master, these are all good things, and there are two pieces of black fox fur inside! Some good silk and satin materials are very novel in style, and there are thirty golden flowers. Zhenghong sachet. The new year is here, and the master can just use it to hold gold and silver sachets to reward people."

Wen Xien said, "When did she return to Yuqing Palace?"

Xiao Luzi took a step forward and replied: "The slave checked it out, and the princess will be back at noon."

Wen Xi stretched out her hand to fiddle with the half-opened Jade Terrace Marigold. The color of the flower is elegant and the fragrance is leisurely, so she folded one and played with it in her hand, saying, "Yuqing Palace is testing me!"

Zhu'er was slightly taken aback.Then Ruo said meaningfully: "The crown princess is not the same as before, and her mind is getting more and more difficult."

The Crown Princess Guerjia was plotted by several people in such a miserable way that she almost couldn't bear children.It's a pity that even if she took care of her body and finally got pregnant, it was just a baby, but her position became more and more stable.The prince's eldest son, Hongxi, was raised by her, and his wrists became more and more flexible day by day, and he even dared to plot against her!Thinking of this, the nails severed the stems of the daffodils, stained with the juice of the nails, a little greasy.What a wonderful thing.It's not good if it is strangled, so I just threw it aside.

Wen Xi ate the candied crabapple freshly made by the dining room.I always feel that the candied crabapple in the palace tastes better.So before leaving that day, he asked Xiao Pomegranate to bring two jars, and asked him to share one jar with Xiao Mitao.I was holding a crabapple in my hand, and Kangxi was already cold at that time, so I didn't give him a...

"Take a few servants to test whether the palace is still the same as before. Even if it fails, it will only be a few servants who will pay for it!" If it was before, no matter how thoughtful Guarjia was, he would not dare to test her!

Eating crabapple.Li Dequan in front of the imperial court came in person and brought some leathers.Wen Xi asked Zhu'er to order a little bit, so she got more skins this year than in previous years!

Li Dequan accepted the reward calmly, with a flattering smile: "Your master, is there anything you want the slave to hand over to the emperor?"

"No." Wen Xi's tone was light, he would be cold when he liked to be cold, "It's almost the time to close the pen at the end of the year, and the emperor is busy recently, so I won't bother the emperor."

Li Dequan froze half of his face, and hurriedly said: "Then your master must have something to tell the slave to the emperor?"

Wen Xi still shook her head, and said leisurely: "Everything in this palace is fine, the emperor is even better than this palace, so there is nothing to say."

Li Dequan still did not give up, and reminded: "The emperor coughed twice yesterday, thinking about the Chuanbei Sydney made by your master himself."

Speaking of which, as an eunuch, Li Dequan is enough to do this, and he looks like he wants to match Wen Xi and Kangxi, but Wen Xi is too lazy to please Kangxi, so he said: "Is there even an imperial dining room in the Hall of Mental Cultivation?" Even Chuanbei pears can’t be stewed?”

Li Dequan had no choice but to send a lot of things, but returned empty-handed.When I went back, I had to say a few good words about the imperial concubine. Although Li Dequan loves money, he still remembers the old kindness. If the imperial concubine hadn't pleaded for mercy, he would not have been able to serve the imperial concubine earlier. How could he be where he is today?More importantly, Li Dequan also has his own calculations. If they reconcile, are they afraid of losing her rewards and a lot of benefits in the future?

After returning to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Li Dequan was not in a hurry to return. Tete went to the imperial dining room first, ordered someone to stew Chuanbei pears, and personally brought them to Kangxi's case. Sydney." The so-called Chuanbei Sydney is peeled and removed, then stewed with Chuanbei and rock sugar.

Kangxi stopped writing for a while, coughed lowly, with a slight smile on his face, "I just have a bad throat, why did you tell the imperial concubine?!"

Li Dequan hastily smiled and said: "The imperial concubine asked whether the dragon body is healthy or not, but the servant dare not lie to the imperial concubine."

Kangxi hummed, and put down his pen, "She has such a heart, so it's a mistake, and I won't be as knowledgeable as her!"

Li Dequan thought about the attitude of the imperial concubine just now, still smiling happily, and hurriedly filled a bowl for Kangxi.Li Dequan saw that Kangxi's face was finally not as cold as it was two days ago, and seeing that it was getting dark outside, he asked, "Your Majesty, it's getting late, is it Chuanjing Office?"

Kangxi ate a cup of Chuanbei pears, his stomach was warm, and a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Let's pass it on."

"Hey!" Li Dequan hurriedly went to work. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
