Concubine, she is so charming

Chapter 181 Kill the chicken to warn the monkey

With this behavior, even a fool can see that the emperor is trying to make an example of others.

It seems that the Chen family is now very much feared by the emperor, and they are going to slowly pluck the wings of the Duke of England.

But Chu Yunhuai, who knew the inside story because of Ye Yun, knew it better.

The emperor's actions are not only aimed at the Chen family, but all the families.

It's long overdue.

In the first spring of the emperor's ascension to the throne, most of the selected young talents were young talents from high families, and few were from poor families.

Even Chu Yunhuai was secretly taken care of by the Ye family.

No emperor would want such a court monopolized by aristocratic families.

In fact, Ning Chen still has one thing to do on this southern tour, he needs to find a way to gradually turn these grassroots officials from other places into his own.

The aristocratic families have high vision and don't like to pay attention to these small officials, but these low-level officials are often the ultimate executors when the tall buildings are built on the ground.

Lanzhou dismissed six of them at the same time. Such a decisive method was to insert his own people.

With Zhang Qun's deeds in front, no one dared to say anything more. In the end, the position of Lanzhou Zhizhou was settled in this way, and the imperial edict was officially issued after returning to Beijing.

Ning Chen just took advantage of not going back to Beijing and didn't have to be restrained too much, so he quickly made a final decision on this matter.

Everything is going well with him so far, but there are some small twists and turns in the palace.

Ye Yun specially ordered someone to stew the chicken soup in the morning, and now he went to get it for lunch, but it was gone.

The steward of the dining room was also very embarrassed, because it was Yunxiu who was next to Yi Xiurong who was going to take the soup.

This time it wasn't completely intentional, it was Yi Xiurong who really wanted to drink it all of a sudden, but chicken soup needs to be stewed for a long time, so she took away Ye Yun's pot after stewing for half a day.

The dining room sent a cup of stewed stew to Yuxiu Pavilion for more than half an hour, but he didn't dare to hide it, and told the whole story.

Huiyue became angry immediately, "Are you seeing Yi Xiurong's pregnancy, and holding her to torture our Jieyu?"

"Oh my good sister, how dare the slaves!" The eunuch who delivered the meal had a bitter face, "Ming Jieyu treats the slaves the best on weekdays, and the one who rewards the most, the slaves will naturally take their lives to pay for it." Serve Jieyu well, but if the person who repairs Yiyi wants to take it away, we dare not stop him, right?"

"That's all said clearly, Yunxiu still took it away?!" Nan Zhi was angry.

The eunuch delivering meals nodded, "That's right, she oppressed us with the emperor's heir, how could our dining room afford it?"

Nan Zhi wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Ye Yun.

"Forget it, put the things away and go back. He has an heir, so we shouldn't make room for it?"

"Yes, yes, Jieyu has always been magnanimous, this slave will leave now." The little eunuch kowtowed hurriedly.

Huiyue endured her annoyance and still gave the reward, which made him even more overjoyed.

I thought it would be good not to be scolded and punished, but I didn't expect that there would be such a reward.

For a while, he was more inclined to Ye Yun in his heart.

"Jieyu, don't be angry, Yi Xiurong is just a villain, she will suffer in the future!" Huiyue comforted.

Ye Yun chuckled lightly, with a look of indifference on his face, but his eyes turned cold.

"Some people don't have a long memory, and I can't help it. You say that she won't dare to eat fish and chicken in the future. How much less fun will be lost."

"But she is going to give birth soon, Jieyu's method is a bit dangerous." Nan Zhi said cautiously.

It was good enough to send fish in the past, but now you want to send chickens in the same way?

"I can't do it now, is she still pregnant?" Ye Yun snorted coldly, pointing to the loyal chicken soup on the table, "Baishu, you send this soup to Yi Xiurong, and tell her that it will only happen in confinement." This is the most suitable drink, when she gives birth, I will boil chicken soup myself every day and send it to Yingyan Pavilion."

Bai Shu naturally understood what it meant, he just smiled and served the soup out.

Yingyan Pavilion.

Yi Xiurong is drinking chicken soup at this moment, she is quite satisfied.

"This soup seems to have been simmering for a long time. The heat and taste are very good. The service in the dining room is attentive. Give me 20 taels of silver."

Yunxiu filled another bowl for her, and said with a smile, "The empress is pregnant and will give birth to a prince soon, how dare the dining room not take care of her."

"You girl is full of nonsense, you know you are the prince even before you were born? Don't call me empress, don't make people think I'm arrogant." Yi Xiurong said while supporting her stomach.

Although he blamed it on his mouth, he had a smile on his face, which showed that he was good at what he said.

"Your Majesty is really cautious. If you become the Nine Concubines, you can be called your Empress? You will be promoted to the throne if you give birth to an emperor's heir in the future!" Yunxi also laughed.

The two girls coaxed Yi Xiurong into a great mood.

Although everything in the palace is good, the prince is naturally more hopeful than the princess.

Didn't you see that Concubine De, who gave birth to two daughters, had a good life, too, who had not given birth to a son?

This is just the concubines, what if my son takes that position in the future?
During the time of the first emperor, the empress dowager was not as powerful as the imperial concubine and concubine de, but now because of her son, she has suddenly become the main palace.

Thinking of this in her heart, Yi Xiurong became more and more looking forward to it.

Her due date is two days. The imperial doctor said that her fetal position is correct and the fetus is healthy, so it will go smoothly.

The master and servant were chatting and laughing inside, when the little maid outside came in to spread the word that Ming Jieyu had sent something.

Suddenly, Yunxiu's complexion changed.

"Ming Jieyu has always competed with you, empress, and now she is sending something, I'm afraid she has no good intentions."

"I'm about to give birth, and now my position is higher than hers, so she dares to do something, which makes you afraid."

Yi Xiurong glanced at Yunxiu, and helped Yunxi's hand to stand up.

In the past, she was the one who was favored more, but now she is the first to conceive the emperor's heir. Thinking about being bullied by Ye Yun when she first entered the palace, Yi Xiurong also held grudges in her heart.

She didn't want to go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, but she wanted to see what Ye Yun was going to do.

Unable to stop Yunxiu, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow her out.

How did this cup of chicken soup come about today, she hasn't dared to tell Yi Xiurong yet, she was also thinking about the pregnancy of the master in Yuxiu Pavilion, so she would not dare to mess around.

But I didn't expect why I came to the door.

If something really happened, wouldn't it be that she caused trouble?
Outside, Bai Shu had a very respectful attitude, saluting with a mahogany food box in his hand.

"Slave pays respects to Xiurong. We, Jieyu, heard that Xiurong wants to drink chicken soup today, so we specially sent another cup."

This word, Baishu can be emphasized a little, so that people can recognize it at once.

Yi Xiurong frowned, a little confused, "When did Ming Jieyu send chicken soup, why did he send another cup?"

As soon as the words came out, Yunxiu, who was standing next to her, looked even worse.

With a flash in Bai Shu's eyes, he looked up at the expressions of the people in front of him, and immediately smiled.

"Hey, Miss Yunxiu didn't tell Xiu Rong? The chicken soup that Xiu Rong drank today was specially ordered by our Jieyu to stew in the dining room in the morning. It has been stewed for half a day. I think it tastes very good. "
