first class maid

Chapter 377 Contradictions and Conflicts (3)
"We..." Several people said in unison again: "I don't believe it, the Lord Sizhi clearly rewards and punishes, how could he take a few of our subordinates down for such a trivial matter."

Xun Zhen couldn't laugh or cry for a while, but picked up the pillow behind him and threw it at several people, everyone laughed, and the carriage was very happy for a while.

Today, the prime minister's mansion is decorated with lights and festive atmosphere. Even the stone lions outside the mansion are wearing red hydrangeas. When Xun Zhen saw it from the carriage, his face darkened.

Several carriages carrying the palace maids drove into the mansion, and Xun Zhen was helped out of the carriage by Winnie.

The butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion who greeted her at the door glanced at Xun Zhen and the others. As a servant of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he is more powerful than ordinary Beijing officials when he goes out. Who is not busy currying favor with him?Besides, the current empress and concubine are all from the Liu family, and it was an unprecedented moment of glory. They raised their heads and squinted at Xun Zhen and others and shouted loudly: "Are you the maids of the imperial palace? I am here waiting for your arrival, you follow me in."

This man's attitude was noticed by all the court ladies. Xun Zhen and other ministerial court ladies all looked at each other in blank dismay. The butlers in the prime minister's mansion are very airy, and they are not a group of cats and dogs. Listening to his tone is like calling cats and dogs generally?
Everyone looked at Xun Zhen and saw that she was not moving, so they didn't move, and they all stood in front of the court like stone pillars.

The housekeeper who felt that he was invincible walked for a long time, only to realize that the group of maids who were insignificant in his eyes had not followed, he was taken aback for a moment, and when he looked up, he happened to see a group of people with red flowers, willows and green flowers still standing in place, Therefore, he said unhappily: "What are you still doing there? This is the etiquette of the palace? It's not as good as the servants of our Prime Minister's Mansion."

Xun Zhenpi smiled and said: "That's really unfortunate, you are also a servant like us, but the masters you serve are different, of course they are incomparable, unless you want to say that your master is bigger than ours, then That's another matter."

She saw that everything in Liu's mansion was not pleasing to the eye, if the housekeeper entertained him nicely, then she could suppress the anger in her heart and not embarrass others.After all, her family's case has nothing to do with the servants of the Xiangfu. It is not her style to implicate the innocent, but now even a small servant of the Xiangfu dares to look down on them, then I am sorry, she refuses to cooperate.

At this moment, the steward of Xiangfu saw that none of these maids had a good face, and the maid who choked him even said something that even he couldn't refute. Could it be that Master Xiang is bigger than the emperor?

That would be head-scratching. After thinking for a moment, he raised his head again, "Our aunt is the empress, and the third lady will soon enter the Eastern Palace as the main concubine. Which one is not your master?"

"You're right. The empress must be the empress first, and then your aunt, and Miss Liu must wait until tomorrow's wedding to become the concubine of the Eastern Palace. But at this moment in this prime minister's mansion, we You are here on behalf of the royal family, why are you yelling at us? Do you have the royal family in your eyes?" Xun Zhen sneered, looking at the posture of the prime minister, I am afraid that he has done a lot of evil things on weekdays.

The butler of the Xiangfu didn't expect these court ladies to be so difficult to deal with?Last time, the maids who came back with the concubine's concubine to visit relatives didn't see such a big show, and they were kind to him, the housekeeper of the prime minister's mansion, so he didn't take this group of minister-level maids seriously?
It's just that he didn't know that most of the maids who accompanied Empress Liu to visit their relatives were not members of the Sixth Bureau, and the biggest ones came to care about etiquette. They all depended on Empress Liu to have a good life, so they didn't dare to put on airs.

The butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion was questioned repeatedly by Xun Zhen, and he was dripping with cold sweat. The court lady opened her mouth eagerly, but now she couldn't get off the tiger. Even if she didn't want to, he quickly stepped forward, "This minister-level court lady, I just had a bad attitude. Okay, please don't worry about it, my wife is waiting for you."

"You are not equal to us. The prime minister's wife is a first-rank imperial order. It is not appropriate for her to come to welcome us, but what about the other masters of your mansion? For example, Miss Liu's biological mother is only a third-rank imperial order. According to the etiquette, she should come to greet us." , Jing Sizan, am I right?" Xun Zhen said kindly to Jing Sizan of Shangyi Bureau who was quite tall beside him.

Jing Sizan nodded and said: "It should be so according to etiquette. He is not qualified to receive us as a servant without rank."

The prime minister's wife, who was waiting in the main hall, glanced at her daughter-in-law Sun, "Why are you still sitting here? According to the etiquette, you should greet her personally."

"My mother-in-law doesn't know something. I heard from Xinmei that one of them is a vixen, and she actually seduced the prince. I lost his soul. Am I giving her a blow? Let her know what is cloud? What is mud?" Sun Shi was very scheming, because of this, her daughter hadn't smiled since she came home, so she didn't come to the court to greet her.

The prime minister's wife frowned. Although the group were maids of honor, they came here on behalf of the royal family. The daughter-in-law did this for fear that it would be difficult to deal with it in the end. She was about to let the daughter-in-law come forward to welcome people in. How did she know that someone came in in a hurry? , "Ma'am, something is wrong. Those maids said we were negligent, and even dared to refute the royal family's face, and they wanted to take a carriage back to report to the prince..."

"What?" The prime minister's wife jumped up and slapped the table and said, these court ladies are so brave, how dare they threaten the prime minister's mansion like this?

"Huh? If they want to leave, let them go. I'll go back to the palace and talk to our aunt, and see if my aunt will spare them?" Sun's original intention was to give a blow to someone who dared to seduce her future son-in-law. The court ladies know what is good or bad, and now they want to play tricks, she will play with them, and see who is tougher than whom?

At this moment, the prime minister's wife gave her daughter-in-law a hard look, "What are you still doing here? Hurry up and welcome them in."

"Mother-in-law, why is this?" Mrs. Sun didn't understand.

"Xinmei is going to be a queen empress in the future, so forget it if you don't enlighten her, and you still have such a bad idea? A court lady, if she is not a concubine, she will not be a concubine. Why should she fight with Xinmei? You are so confused." The prime minister's wife said angrily.

Seeing that her daughter-in-law was still not enlightened, her tone became more serious, "Do you think those court ladies are fools? Don't underestimate those who are in the palace. Now is the critical moment, and tomorrow is the big wedding. They are here to prepare for the marriage of their sweetheart sister. It should have come tomorrow, but this is the grace of the empress, and they are afraid that there will be a temporary situation like the last empress ceremony. They dare to put down their burdens at this time, That means they can afford it, but we can't afford it, and you still say that one of them is the crown prince's concubine, so there's no guarantee that the crown prince won't favor her? Do you want to see that your fiancée won't get married tomorrow?"
