Concubine's Handbook of Good Life in Ancient Times

Chapter 76

"Haha~ Very good, really great. There are still people acting like this under my nose, how many heads do they have to chop off?"

The emperor laughed back in anger. It was obvious that someone was fighting against Concubine Jia, but they did not expect that Concubine Jia did not go to the stand where the concubines were, but was brought by the Queen Mother. As for why Concubine Li sat in the position of Concubine Jia , Needless to say?However, it was precisely because of her own death that the other party's plot was exposed without success.

It's just that Concubine Li was wronged. This matter was originally a fight against Concubine Jia, but in the end she acted as a scapegoat, but she asked for it herself, and there was no reason for it.However, she still blamed Concubine Jia, thinking that if she hadn't gone with the Queen Mother, she would not have sat in her seat, so she would not have been the one who fell into the water.

I don't reflect on my misbehavior, and I am too aggressive and care about fame and fortune to cause today's disaster. Instead, I blame everything on Concubine Jia. Sure enough, there are still such superb concubine Li in this world. In my heart, it is always others who are wrong, not myself.

"Poor Concubine Jia, I don't know who is trying to harm her." The empress couldn't bear it. Compared with the concubine Li who was self-inflicted, the empress felt more sorry for the concubine Jia who was being plotted by others.People don't hurt the tiger's mind, but the tiger hurts the mind of the man.Although Concubine Jia never wanted to get close to the concubines, she had no bad intentions towards everyone. Even so, some people would kill good people. The queen was even more dissatisfied with those concubines in the harem.

Also dissatisfied is the Queen Mother, knowing that Concubine Jia is the one she protects, yet someone dares to design her. This obviously does not take the Queen Mother seriously, how can she not be angry?
"Investigate, you must investigate severely. Emperor, this time, no matter who it is, you can't spare her." The Queen Mother was furious, one for Concubine Jia, and the other for herself.But no matter what the reason is, those who dare to reach out to Concubine Jia will not end well. The Empress Dowager is the emperor's own mother, and the emperor will usually listen to her words.

It's just a few women in the harem, the emperor doesn't care about their life or death at all, originally he meant to investigate, concubine Jia is also someone the emperor values!
"Mother, don't worry, your son knows what to do."

There was a strong murderous intent in this sentence, it can be seen that this time the emperor was also murderous.

"So I'm relieved."

Seeing that the emperor did not protect those people, the queen mother was really relieved, and left the rest of the matter to the emperor. Her old man was going to rest, and she was really exhausted today.There is also a palace banquet in the evening, so it is good not to rest at noon, and her old man will definitely not be able to support the palace banquet in the evening.

"The son and daughter-in-law sent the mother off respectfully."

The emperor and the empress stood up and watched the empress dowager leave, and the couple began to investigate Li Concubine's loss of water again, but this time it was different from the past, and the emperor took the lead.

"My lady is awake~"

Mei Chun and the others followed behind Nanny Bai, holding washing utensils in their hands.

"Yeah." Shu Ning stroked her forehead, she didn't sleep well during the afternoon nap today, she had a dream all afternoon, but she didn't remember what dream she had after waking up.

"Mei Qiu, massage my head."

"The slaves obey."

Mei Qiu put down the work in hand, came directly to Shuning's side, and knelt down to massage the master's head.

"Ma'am, can you feel better?"

After pressing the button for about a quarter of an hour, Bai Momo asked cautiously, and deliberately lowered her voice, for fear that the loud sound would make the empress's head hurt even more.

"Mei Qiu, it's done."

Shu Ning waved her hand, Mei Qiu stopped moving, at this moment, a court lady brought warm water in again.

After washing up, Shu Ning changed into old clothes that were eight or nine cent new, and leaned on the couch as if she was boneless.

"Your Majesty, please use jujube tea."

Mei Qiu brought over the jujube tea she had prepared.

After taking two sips from Mei Qiu's hand, she shook her head, and Mei Qiu put the tea aside.

"Hou Lin, I remember what happened to you?"

It was not convenient to ask because there were so many people in the stands, and it was even more difficult to ask when she stayed in Quanfu Palace after returning to the palace.

"My lady, the masters have already followed my mother's advice, and they are probably collecting money now!"

Hou Lin bent over to reply, he really admired Concubine Jia.Not to mention anything else, at first he was worried that the empress was giving money to gamble. Who would have thought that the Royals really won, it was as surprising as a miracle.

"Well, you've done a good job. Ma'am, thank you."

After Shuning finished speaking, Nanny Bai gave Hou Lin a first-class award, and Changning Palace rewarded people into three classes.The third class, the second class and the upper class are divided according to the size of the matter. Hou Lin's work this time is obviously not small, and the empress is very satisfied. Naturally, it is the upper class.

The first-class seal is ten taels of silver, the second-class seal is five taels, and the third-class seal is one tael.Don't look at how the third class only has one or two taels, and the monthly money of many low-ranking maids is only a few taels of silver, and they have to save one or two taels of silver for two or three months, which is a lot.

"Thank you, ma'am, for the reward." Hou Lin narrowed his eyes with a smile, took the reward and tucked it into his sleeve, before retreating wisely.Although the money he got in Changning Palace is not as much as serving in front of the emperor, after all, those ministers wanted to inquire about news from him, and he usually got a lot of silver bills of hundreds of taels, but the money he got was not as good as in Changning Palace. .
