Concubine, she is so charming

Chapter 71 Timely Rain

The news outside the palace soon became apparent.

Ye Yun saw the letter handed in by his mother, and understood the general idea.

"There's nothing to be courteous about, it's either rape or robbery." Ye Yun sneered.

Nan Zhi couldn't figure it out, "What's in this letter? Why did the beauty say that?"

"A few days ago at the Lantern Festival family dinner, the empress dowager was very kind, which always made people feel strange. I asked my mother to check outside the palace, and there was really something going on inside."

Ye Yun tore up the note while talking, and Nan Zhi neatly swept the debris together and threw it into the charcoal basin to burn.

"Chun Wei is approaching, but the chief examiner for this year has not yet been decided. Presumably the Chen family wants to make a living."

Being the chief examiner is a very lucrative thing.

Once the chief examiner is appointed, there will inevitably be a lot of candidates who come to pay him a visit. Not to mention how many gifts they can receive, there is only one thing, if someone is in high school, they will thank the chief examiner.

After coming and going, it is inevitable to get close to him, and to support him a little bit, he can easily win over a group of new young officials.

"But Master Xu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, didn't mention it to the emperor. The Ministry of Officials has always been in charge of these things, so it must be for Master Xu." Huiyue asked doubtfully.

Now Ye Yun often finds ways to understand the situation in the previous dynasty, mostly relying on a few girls to contact the outside world to inquire, now Huiyue and Nan Zhi understand a lot.

Ye Yun smiled, "Master Xu was the emperor's companion at the time, and he is only 26 years old this year. Although he is really talented, he is still young. Chun Wei is a big deal, and he can't convince the public. If it wasn't for the last official secretary Being involved in a certain rebellion, being deprived of the black hat, and the emperor's ascension to the throne, he promoted Mr. Xu, how could there be such a young minister in Nanqi."

Just looking at the other few, Xu Shangshu is old enough to be the son of the other five Shangshu.

When Xu Jiangbai was appointed Minister of the Ministry of Officials, many people in the court opposed it, but at that time Ning Chen had just ascended the throne and was very energetic, so he made it happen with all his strength.

If Ning Chen were no longer so impulsive and stubborn today, I'm afraid there would be no such thing.

However, if it wasn't for Ning Chen's efforts to hold the Ministry of Officials in his own hands at the beginning, he might be restrained by several aristocratic families and not be allowed to use it.

Although Xu Jiangbai is still weak right now, he does have talent, and given time, he will definitely be of great use.

"In that case, the Duke of England is considered highly respected, and there are quite a few people in the court who support him. The Empress Dowager shows her kindness in the palace. I am afraid that the position of chief examiner will be taken by the Chen family again." Nan Zhi discouraged.

At first, everyone was scruples about saying that the harem should not be involved in politics. Later, as Ye Yun paid more and more attention to the former dynasty, the two girls got used to it, and talked about it calmly.

"The Chen family is indeed suitable, maybe not only the Chen family is doing this, it depends on what the emperor thinks."

Ye Yun swayed to the window and sat down, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Nan Qi has never been short of talented people, it just depends on who is most beneficial to Ning Chen.

If the Taifu was in good health, he wouldn't be so entangled, but the Taifu was old, and he fell ill last winter, and he hasn't recovered yet, so I'm afraid he won't have much time.

Right now, Ning Chen's biggest problem is that no one is available. Even though Nanqi has many talents, few of them are royalists.

The aristocratic family is powerful, and they can get promoted and make a fortune by currying favor with the high-ranking families. Who would want to work hard to make good political achievements so that the emperor can see it and then promote them.

After a cup of tea, Ye Yun got up, "Change my clothes for me, I haven't been to Jiuchen Palace for a long time, ask the dining room to make a cup of soup for nourishing qi, I will take it to see the emperor."

What a great opportunity to do a timely rain at this time.

Even if the emperor has already thought of this method, he can go to make a fuss, but he can't always wait for the gold master to find it himself.

So half an hour later, Ye Yun stood outside Jiuchen Palace.

Yuan Jiu went in to communicate, and asked her to go in after a while.

"The concubine came to see the emperor, and the concubine asked someone to make soup. The emperor has lost a lot of weight recently, and he needs to make up for it." Ye Yun said, and went forward with a food box.

Ning Chen took a look at her. Today she was wearing a goose-yellow long dress with cross-collar embroidered with clouds and snow. She was wearing a bun with ingots. On her head was a set of butterfly hairpins with tassels that she just got a few years ago. Two pearls were adorned on her ears. She hooked her lips into a smile, which was charming and charming.

Although spring has not yet arrived, just looking at Ye Yun's attire makes people feel warm and comfortable.

Stretching out his hand to pull the person over, the movement is already very skillful.

"This material was given by me last year, so you didn't waste it wearing it."

Ye Yun pouted and hummed, "The emperor just doesn't want to praise his concubines for their good looks."

"Don't they all mean the same thing." Ning Chen rubbed his nose, "There are still a lot of good materials in my warehouse, and there is a new batch of Shu brocade that is a tribute. The color is good. You can pick a few back later."

"Then thank the emperor, after all, the concubine didn't come here in vain." Ye Yun smiled.

Pull out your hand and serve the soup yourself.

Ning Chen took it and drank a couple of sips. The weather is still cold, so it's really comfortable to drink something warm.

"The emperor is still reading the scriptures? You don't have time to rest all day long."

Ye Yun glanced at the table, naturally there was nothing she couldn't see, and the things she shouldn't know had already been put away.

"The spring is approaching, and the emperor will go on a tour of the north again. After going there for two months, he will have to accumulate a lot of government affairs when he comes back. It's really distressing."

After drinking a cup of soup, Ning Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you feel sorry for me? I think you only want to sleep, eat and drink every day."

"Your majesty is talking nonsense!" Ye Yun refused, and flicked the small handkerchief, quite coquettishly, "The concubine's heart is for the emperor!"

Ning Chen was funny and took her hand, Ye Yun simply turned around and sat on his lap.

"When will the emperor set off for the northern tour? The date has been set. The concubine can ask the needlework bureau to make more clothes. I can't embarrass the emperor when I leave the palace."

"There are still matters to be dealt with right now, but the date has not yet been set, and the Tianjian is watching." Ning Chen hugged his heart and pinched Jiao Niang's catkin.

Ye Yun leaned boneless on the man's shoulder, half-closed his eyes, seemingly casually, "I guess it's about Chun Wei? The emperor works so hard every day, but he must eat well, otherwise how can his body bear it? If the concubine is Man, I wish I could advise the emperor."

Having said that, Ning Chen paused his hand, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a low voice.

"Even if you're not a man, you can share my worries. I have something and I want to hear what you have to say."

"What's the matter?" Ye Yun sat up, staring at Ning Chen vigilantly like a rabbit, "The harem is not allowed to meddle in politics, the emperor can't cheat on his concubines!"

The corners of Ning Chen's lips curled slightly, he pulled him back into his arms, and said as if bewitching, "Just say today, I'll count you innocent, the position of the chief examiner has not yet been decided on the matter of Chun Wei, you say, I'm called Who will do it, the most suitable one?"

The two looked at each other, and Ning Chen's eyes were full of expectation.

He also knows a thing or two about Ye Yun's intelligence, and now he is interested, so he really wants to hear what the woman in his arms can say.
