The cute master who always attacks the queen

Chapter 11 The Eve of Mid-Autumn Festival
The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and everyone in the palace is very busy.

In fact, compared with the two festivals of Shangyuan and Winter Solstice, Mid-Autumn Festival is not a big festival.It's just that according to the usual practice, on this day, the married woman will come to congratulate her concubine.Because Yu Ci is also considered a new daughter-in-law, they will all offer congratulatory gifts, and Yu Ci not only has to return the gift, but also give a banquet.There are more than a hundred wives of the third grade or above in the imperial court. Leaving aside the banquet, there are a full ten lists of gifts and rewards for them.Although these were drawn up by the female officer on her behalf, she had to make the final decision by herself.She is a serious person, she has carefully asked about every document, and she was really tired once.Fortunately, Azhu and Ayu were there to help.

When Abi looked for her, Ayu had just finished her accounts and was checking the list of wives.

Abi was led in, looking at the lists piled up on her desk, she was a little embarrassed at first.Ayu didn't care, brought tea to her with a smile, and asked, "What's the matter with you coming to see me?"

Ayu is a female official of the second rank. Although she has no airs and is familiar with herself, Abi is still a little uncomfortable. She hurriedly took the tea and said, "Auntie killed me."

Ayu blinked and smiled, but didn't answer.

——The female officials in the palace are also selected through examinations. For other positions, a basic knowledge of literature and ink is enough, but female officials are better than lacking.Those who can be admitted to women's history, their knowledge will not be much worse than those of Jinshi in the imperial court. Of course, Ayu was able to pass the exam, but Azhu did not, simply because Ayu's ability to see ten things at a glance and never forget is too heaven-defying-the comparison of literature and history Ayu is really not that many.

Seeing that she was not angry, Abi said again: "Today I came to ask Auntie for something."

Ayu nodded: "You say."

Abi said: "My Rong'er wants to eat pineapples, of course we don't have them in the palace, so I came here to ask, is there any here... There is no reason for slaves to beg for things from the master, but..."

Ayu smiled and said, "How can there be so much attention? But there are really none in the temple now, wait a minute, I will go to the library and transfer some for you."

Abi was about to say no more trouble, but Ayu had already run out alive and well, unable to hold her back.

Abi had no choice but to wait in the room alone.

After only half a cup of tea, I heard someone knocking on the door.Abi was an outsider, so she couldn't respond well, so she could only hide behind the screen.The man knocked twice, pushed the door open and went in.Through the embroidered screen, Abi vaguely saw a petite court lady.That person's steps are light, his movements are like a dance, and his posture is the most graceful that Abi has ever seen in his life.

The plums in the melon field, it's not good for Abi to go out, it's not good to go out, she was flustered for a while.

The man seemed to have seen the shadow behind the screen, and asked tentatively, "Sister Ayu?"

Abi had no choice but to come out and said awkwardly: "Auntie just went out, I'm waiting for her."

When the man saw Abi, he was stunned for a moment, then quickly lowered his head, and said respectfully, "I've seen Auntie."

Abi was promoted to the head of Fenghua Palace a few days ago, no one in the palace knew her, unexpectedly this girl knew.Abi is not used to it yet, she blushed when she heard her call, and said: "I'll be back in a while, if you have something to do, just wait."

The man said: "No, I'm here to deliver the seat list. Sister Ayu is not here, so it's the same for Cai Shangyi." After saying that, he bowed his knees and said, "The palace is busy, so wait for aunt."

The man walked for a while before Ah Bi realized that the Cai Shangyi she was talking about was Ah Zhu.Can't help but sigh, the same maid beside Yuci, there is still a difference between closeness and estrangement in the eyes of outsiders.

After another cup of tea, Ayu came back.During this period, Ah Zhu sent people to fetch the roster twice, which shows how busy he was.

Ayu personally fetched four pineapples for her, and Abi felt very embarrassed.

Ayu naturally didn't care, and said with a smile: "They are just busy, it's not a troublesome thing at all. By the way, since you're here, let me ask by the way, will your Rong'er come or not on August [-]th?"

This time, Xiu Yi was seriously ill, and she had to lie on the bed for more than ten years before she regained her composure.Xie En didn't come in person when he was in Jinfeng.In addition, her sick leave was approved by the emperor, and the imperial physician ordered her to take good care of her, so it is not known whether she will attend the Mid-Autumn Festival celebration.

Abi frowned and said: "I don't know either. To say something that shouldn't be said... Our family's Rong'er's complexion has improved, but her mind has become more and more heavy. The people below say that she has been haunted by ghosts."

Ayu said: "There are no ghosts, you have to explain her more, don't follow her."

Abi knew she had made a slip of the tongue, and hurriedly said: "I understand, and our Rong'er must also understand. Someday she will feel refreshed, so she will naturally come to thank her concubine in person."

Ayu smiled and said, "Naturally I have to thank you, Yu Ci is a very good person, you will understand when the time comes."

Abi looked at her suspiciously. Ayu couldn't hide her words. She looked at Abi's eyes and felt itchy. She glanced left and right, leaned over and smiled and said, "Yesterday I heard Yuci tell the emperor, let your Rong'er family Let's go to the palace to have a look. Although the emperor didn't give me a letter, I guess he has his heart set on it, and I will definitely surprise you, Rong'er."

Abi was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly said: "This is really a great grace, Rong'er must be happy to hear it."

Ayu hooked her fingers and whispered in her ear: "Remember to keep it secret. If you tell me now, you Rong'er will be so happy that you won't be able to sleep for a few days, and it will be bad for her health."

Abi frowned and said with a smile: "It's natural."

Ayu sent Abi away and buried herself in the pile of forms again.

Compared with her efficiency and speed, the others are indeed busy. She went through the roster of more than 100 people, and she had written down the grades, names, and seats.Then check the seat table against the rank, check the utensils used at each table according to the seat table, and check the amount that each maid and eunuch should receive according to the utensil list... Five or six people checked the list for an afternoon, and she used it for less than one person. It was sorted out in an hour.

Yuci and Azhu knew her ability very well, so they didn't send anyone to help her at all-of course, they were afraid that they would hinder her if they failed to help.

After she checked, the messy roster on the table was also sorted, and the mistakes on each copy were clearly marked.Seeing that it was still early, I lay down on the window sill and ate an apple again.The court ladies who came and went in the corridor were angry when they saw her idle.It's just that everyone in the palace knew that the concubine favored her, and no one said anything about her.

Bamboos are planted outside the palace, and the luxuriant branches and leaves sway in the wind, graceful and leisurely.The windows are hidden in the shade of greenery, and the fragrance of the vegetation is refreshing.Ayu pulled a leaf and shook it, the large compound leaf dangling in her hand.

Her mind also drifted away.

Just the day before, Yu Ci told her that Qian Jin was Qian Zhi, and the reason why he came to deliver Shi Gong in person was because Ah Lian was transferred back to Beijing.Yu Chi asked her if she wanted to follow Ah Lian.

Of course she would.She also had a dream last night, dreaming that she became a heroine, leaping over the roof and flying over walls, with world-class martial arts... Then she robbed the execution ground and rescued A Lian from the executioner's knife at the critical moment.

But she didn't dare to think about it... because in the dream, after she rescued A Lian, she saw Yuci being strangled to death by Lu Ming with white silk, but she couldn't jump the short palace wall to save her.

If Ah Lian and Miu Ci had to choose one, she would choose Miu Ci without hesitation.Although it is estimated that after the election, she will be so annoyed that she will hit her head to death.

Pian Yuci didn't appreciate it, saying that Ayu's following her would only make her hesitate.Instead, following Qian Yizhi, he can run the farm for him and handle the finances, and maybe help A Lian escape from disaster, and the most important thing is: Yu Ci doesn't have to worry about her getting into trouble.

Ayu knew that she was a troublesome person, and she made trouble for Miu Ci a lot when she was in the mansion, but she still felt a little hurt when Miu Ci said it so bluntly.

Yuci estimated that Ah Yu had almost finished the work, so she sent Ah Ping to fetch it.

——Yuci has made up her mind to send Azhu and Ayu out of the palace, and it would be inappropriate not to have two personal maids around her, so these days she deliberately promotes Aping and a maid named Xiaoying, and puts them around .

A Ping is smart and calm, and Xiao Ying is smart and pungent. No matter who they put in the palace, they will never stay under others for a long time.Leave this kind of talent aside, neither reuse nor suppress them, and sooner or later you will be disturbed by them—after eight years of being with your grandfather, you still understand this truth
According to Ah Zhu, people like Ah Ping should rush to the sky as soon as possible, and don't let her come back to harm him for the rest of his life.But Yu Ci felt that it was too absurd to use what happened in the future to condemn the present.Who knows what the future holds?
But she really cared too much about Aping.She believed in "seeing the strange and not blaming the strange and self-defeating", so she simply put A Ping by her side, and felt that she got to know her well, and the prejudice in her heart would naturally disappear.

However, Ah Ping's personality is very compatible with her, they are silent and immersed in their work, and they don't say a word, but they don't miss what should be said.Moreover, Aping is more mellow and friendly than her, and everyone praised her, which made her even more admired.

It's a pity that A Zhu didn't buy A Ping's account, and her attitude towards A Ping was flat.There are rumors in the palace these days that it is Yuci who relies on A Ping so much that Azhu is jealous—if there is any dissatisfaction with A Ping, it is probably this: as the palace's quasi-in-charge maid, she would allow such things. Rumors spread to Yu Ci's ears.

What's more, Ah Zhu didn't do anything to Ah Ping—she didn't even say a serious word.

But this also strengthened her idea of ​​sending Azhu and Ayu out as soon as possible - Azhu is the serious housekeeper of the palace, her popularity, means, and power are so bad that everyone will kill her before she falls into the well, and if she stays there, something will happen sooner or later.

Aping left for a while, then brought Ayu along.

Ah Yu has no prejudice against Ah Ping, and the relationship between the two has been very good since Yuci promoted Ah Ping.It seemed that Ayu was two months older than Aping, and Aping called Ayu's sister one by one, which further alienated Azhu.

Ayu has never been called elder sister, which is very useful. Azhu knows that she is short-hearted, so she doesn't bother to care about it.

When Ayu's form was sent up, Yuci knew that she had never made any mistakes, so she didn't ask anyone to verify it, so she handed it directly to Aping and asked her to distribute it to the various managers.

Ayu pursed her lips and looked down at her. Seeing that ink was still on her lips, Yu Ci wiped it off with a handkerchief.

"Just pay attention, Ah Zhu doesn't like Ah Ping, so what if you distance yourself from her?"

Ayu said sullenly: "I'm not like some people, and I can't drive her out if she goes to find me."

Yu Ci knew that she was still angry at him for wanting her out of the palace, so she changed the topic and said with a smile: "You are not young anymore, can you still not tell who is good for you? Don't say anything else, you and When Cai Shu is with you, can she let you run around with a face?"

Ayu said: "No matter how good Ah Ping is, he is still an outsider, and he is not close to each other. I still have this cleverness. But senior sister, do you understand that you have taken me and Cai Shu away, and you have no one by your side?" gone."

Yu Ci wiped her face for a while, then pushed her and said, "If you can't clean it, go wash your face."

Ayu let out an "oh", subconsciously obeyed, went to the copper basin to scoop up a handful of water before realizing it, turned her head and said, "Your Majesty, don't avoid the question."

Yu Ci didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "Wash your face! There are only a few reasons. I told you all last night. What else do you want to hear?"

Yu Ci had a headache and said, "Why don't you listen, kid. I've already said that I have a way to get out. Ayu has already wet his face. Hearing what she said, she turned around and gesticulated wetly, saying: "It's not the same thing, okay?"This palace is full of your enemies, without me and Cai Shu serving as your eyes and ears, you would have died long ago. ", I have to think of another idea if you stay. You are talking about an idea of ​​three people getting out together?"

Ayu said proudly: "Why do we want to get away? Besides, you are still the empress of concubine kindness. Why can't we win with this hand? Why don't we make a big reversal, what is the chaos of Xiti, the abolition of the queen and easy storage, the concubine only Feeling amused and annoyed, he stepped forward and pressed a wet towel on her face, wiped her face, and taught: "It's a good idea, a good ambition.Don't you want to be the king and the hegemony, pack up and go out for me tomorrow
"

Seeing her childish appearance, Yu Ci threw away the towel and sighed: "I don't think anyone in this palace is more stupid than you. You can predict the future, and others can't adapt to the situation? They are very sensitive and don't want to hurt you." Forget it..."

"I think they are all nice people, they haven't harmed me..."

Yu Ci shook her head, "Then let me ask you, where did the rumor that I poisoned Xiu Yi come from?"

Ayu finally calmed down.

Yuci said again: "Someone in the palace said that Ah Shu was jealous of A Ping. A Ping suffered a lot of grievances from her, but she generally tolerated it. You are closer to A Shu than I am, but you are talking about how Cai Shu usually behaves?" bully?"

Ayu didn't speak.

Yu Ci added: "These things are hard to guard against. If you really think you are smarter than others, then tell me, what should we do when we encounter these things?"

Ayu said categorically: "Let's treat Xiuyi and Aping even better."

Yu Ci said: "They have a lot of ways. It is good to say that you are a guilty conscience, it is stupid to say that you are deceiving others, and it is just to corrupt you by saying that you are a fire in the open and a knife in the dark... To put it in a sinister way, such as Xiuyi wanted to eat pineapple today, so I sent it to her, if someone poisoned her and something happened, what would you do?"

Ayu stared at her with wide eyes in bewilderment.

Yu Ci shook her head again, "Don't think that no one is so bad...how did Xiu Yi's child die?"

Ayu stammered, "So we can't leave you alone..."

Yu Ci rubbed her forehead: "Didn't I tell you everything last night? I am Yu Ci anyway, my grandfather is alive and well, and the emperor has not issued an order to abolish the empress. No one dares to do anything to me. Even if someone framed me , and no one dared to torture me to extract a confession, but you and Ashu are different. Besides, if I want to get away at that time, I can just fake death once. But what will you do with her? Also fake death with me? Don’t say Three deaths at a time is too eye-catching, even if we really go out, who will meet us outside the palace?"

Ayu blinked.She was overwhelmed by Yu Ci's stereotypes, and although she really couldn't refute it, she didn't dare to agree so hastily, and said, "You are the queen, and I am nervous talking to you. I will give you an answer after I clear my mind."

Yu Ci smiled and gave her a brain collapse, and said, "Then think about it carefully, I want a perfect answer."
　Let's get a few tickets. We will update twice a day in the future. We also need recommended collections. Thank you in advance.
