Chapter 108 Fan, Deng
"Chenglian Hall is taking our mother as a raft!" After sending away Min Ashan, he turned around and sneered, and then went back to the back hall and said, "What do you mean that Mu Xuanhui entered the palace late, not as much as our mother knows about all parts of the palace? Who doesn't know how many people on the side of the inner department are attentive to their Changjin Palace? It's really difficult. Hasn't anyone sent a message to check for her? It is clear that if the person who recommended the past makes a mistake and neglects Princess Xiping, our mother will also stand in the front!"
"Just say less." Yuqiu said lightly, "Although this, after all, our empress dowager was in charge of the palace affairs. The green clothes around Mu Xuanhui came to the door openly and politely told the context. Why didn't you pay attention to her?"
He stamped his feet hard and said, "I just feel wronged for my mother."
"The Empress didn't speak herself, but it's your turn to be a poor slave?" Ganqiu scolded lightly, "Don't say much. Take me to turn over the roster. You don't like to see Changjin Palace. Princess Xiping is always Her Majesty's bloodline. At least she has been raised in our hall for a month. Didn't you see that the Empress likes her very much? It's a good choice to choose two people, which is the way not to cause trouble to the Empress!"
He squeezed his lips and said, "I know."
The people around the Qu family did a neat job, but in two days, they rushed to send the candidates up before New Year's Eve. Mu Biwei pointed out the two Mothers mentioned by Princess Wen and asked, "This is a surname of Fan, which Yutong only learned yesterday. How about this mother?"
came back and reported that he didn't look at the list. He said, "This is the old man who entered the palace when he was Gaozu. He was not selected to enter the palace, but because his husband died early and had no children. He had no permanent property in the palace to make a living. He had read before, so he served the late eldest princess Yushou after entering the palace, and later The eldest princess fell and planned to take her to the princess's house. Unexpectedly, the accident happened on the eve of the eldest princess's descent, and she stayed in Fengyang Palace to serve. A few years ago, Princess Wen was short of manpower. The princess liked people who could read and write, regardless of her age. The Fan family was transferred to the Le Nian Hall, but two years ago, she was ruined by mistake. After the objects given to the imperial concubine by Emperor Gaozu, the imperial concubine was kind and did not pursue them, but she didn't want her to serve.
Mu Bi muttered slightly, "Someone has packed the things here, but there is nothing particularly precious for her to keep. Have you ever served in Fengyang Palace? That's good."
Fengyang Palace and Linzhi Palace are the places where the emperor's heirs move to when they are old. The former is the residence of the elderly princess, and the latter is the residence of the elder prince. Most of the people served in the two places have been screened and believed to be honest and reliable, so as not to damage the emperor's heirs.
said in the autumn, "Zuo Zhaoyi also thinks that Fan is good. Does Xuanhui want her?"
"There are too few people." Mu Biwei pointed to another person on the list, "If you want this Deng, the list says that she writes well, so that she can point out a few words to Yutong when Huang Nushi is away. The words of this palace can't be seen."
"The Empress is humble." Yuqiu said, "The slave and maidservant will go back to Zuo Zhaoyi."
Mu Bi nodded slightly and ordered someone to take the reward silver with her: "Go and thank Zuo Zhaoyi on behalf of me."
He didn't refuse, took his thanks, and then went.
In the afternoon, the inner division led Fan and Deng to the Chenglian Hall. Ashan sent the inner division and took the two to the apse. Mu Biwei looked at them, but saw that they were generally 40 or 50 years old. They were both neat and looked capable, among which the corners of Fan's eyes were slightly soft. Looking at it as if it was particularly tolerant, Deng looked more shrewd and dressed in medium-sized clothes. It could be seen that it was the old man in the palace, and Princess Wen was not harsh. Although she was nominally wrong, she was not trampled to death.
Mu Biwei had the idea of asking them to bring their own flesh and blood in the future. When they finished salute, she politely let them sit down. Seeing that the two behaved moderately, they were not so frightened. She knew how to call them over and did not talk nonsense, and said, "Princess Xiping under my knees is going to Four years old, I previously invited Huang Nvshi from Lanhui Museum to teach her. The female history is very good at teaching. It's just one thing. There are no older people around me, and there is no old and important person around the princess to watch, so I asked Zuo Zhaoyi to recommend you to accompany the princess.
Both Fan and Deng knew that Mu Biwei was deeply favored by Ji, and Princess Xiping was also the eldest daughter of the emperor. What's more, Mu Biwei's Changjin Palace has always been protecting their shortcomings. The two of them have left Princess Wen since then. Although they are not bullied in Fengyang Palace because there is no princess in Fengyang Palace now- Because of the remoteness of Hongshou Palace, Empress Dowager Gao did not like to see Princess Bo, so Princess Tongchang still followed her mother and did not live in Fengyang Palace. Now Fengyang Palace is very sad. Naturally, there is no reason to refuse. They all said, "I am willing to do my best for the Empress."
Mu Biwei ordered people to invite Xiping to come over. Xiping wore a big red gold embroidered skirt, wore a red gold circle, a pair of bells on his wrist, and was surrounded by a group of people such as Wanshang. First, he invited Mu Biwei to Ann. Mu Bi waved her to her side with a smile and pointed to Fan and Deng, "My mother has a new one for you. Two M Mothers, do you think it's good?
Xiping had already got an explanation before he came. What's more, there were two people around her who served two people. She didn't care much at her age and nodded and said, "Thank you, Princess."
Fan and Deng saluted the west again, and Mu Biwei asked them to accompany Xiping to get familiar with the place - of course, now the two have come. Although it is because of Princess Wen, Princess Wen only said that they are not bad. After all, they still have to pay attention to it.
Mu Biwei dismissed the others and said to Ah Shan, "Since two have been made, in a few months, let them recommend others and get them all together."
Ashan wrote down this matter and said, "Do you still remember the butterfly?"
"Butterfly?" Mu Bi pondered slightly, but still had some impression, "Are you talking about the little maid who deliberately attracted Xi Ping's attention?"
"The Empress said on the same day that if she only wanted to make progress and didn't have other ideas, she may not be able to give her a chance." Ashan said, "The maidservant remembered to ask two days ago, saying that she has raised much whiter and tenderness because of her idleness, and she is also honest these days."
Mu Biwei said, "I just saw Fan and Deng from left and right. Tell her to come and have a look."
The butterfly was in the Chenglian Hall and was called over in a moment. She was wearing a 70% new tender yellow shirt and a semi-old willow green skirt underneath. The shirt looked a little familiar, as if she didn't want a Su Ge. She saluted. Mu Bi slightly asked her to get up, looked at her a few times, and saw that her skin was indeed much better. Although it is still a little reserved, there are also a few unconcealed joys.
Mu Bi turned around and said, "Do you want to serve Princess Xiping?"
"If you go back to your mother, the maidservant is willing!" Dieer knelt down without hesitation and shouted.
A Shan smiled and said, "This child is honest."
Mu Biwei also smiled: "You are willing, but many people are willing."
"It is a blessing for maidservants to be able to serve the princess." Dieer hesitated for a moment and said, "I also want this blessing."
"But you are not beautiful. I heard that there is nothing to know but to make some toys such as a dragonfly. Why did I ask you to serve the pearl of my palm?" Mu Bi asked with a smile.
Dieer bit her lip. Although she is not old, she knows that if she can serve Princess Xiping, her identity will be different in the future, and her future is also very different from being a rough maid in the Chenglian Hall - even if she is a maid who follows the princess out of the house, she can marry an ordinary official. After all, whether it is the former Wei Dynasty or this dynasty, the royal family has always been more tolerant of the princess. Even the right prime minister of Xuanning was openly asked by her brother for her husband.
"Although I am stupid, I can swear to be loyal to the princess and never violate it!" Dieer thought about the meaning of Mu Biwei and said firmly.
Mu Bi smiled again: "There are many people who are willing to be loyal to Princess Xiping!"
"..." After all, Die'er was young, and now she didn't know how to answer. After a while, she suddenly had an idea, "Maybe Her Royal Highness still has some impression of the maidservants...?"
Mu Bi looked at Ah Shan slightly, and Ah Shan smiled and said, "The princess has forgotten this for a long time."
"Her Royal Highness is young, but the Empress remembers me." Die'er was blessed to her heart and said, "Otherwise, how could the Empress suddenly call the maidservant? It can be seen that although there are many people who are willing to serve the princess and are loyal to the princess, the maidservant took advantage and was remembered by the Empress first.
A Shan smiled and said, "It's clever."
Mu Bi smiled and said, "You did take advantage of an advantage. First, there has been a shortage of manpower here, especially after Mu's death, the people who served Princess Xiping suddenly had no leader. Today, she has made up two mimics. Second, Princess Xiping is now old, and it is time to add some young maids around her. You happen to be one of the youngest people here; Sanlai, I do remember you.
She said slowly, "I've been making people look at you these days."
As soon as Dieer was stunned, she continued to say slowly, "You are thoughtful - you don't have to be afraid. Everyone has desires, and even this palace is no exception. You entered the palace at a young age to serve people. It is not surprising that you have lived a hard life before. It is not surprising that you want to live a better life. It is both decent and easy to serve Princess Xiping. Now Xiping is learning all kinds of things. If you come to her side, if the female history and the matan are in a good mood, they must learn a little. There are very few little maids in the palace who don't want to compete for such a difference.
Die'er took a deep breath and shouted, "I beg my maidservant to give me this opportunity!"
"I can give you this opportunity." Mu Bi glanced at her slightly and said casually, "It's just that how long you can do it is your problem!"
After listening to the previous sentence, the joy on her face was difficult to suppress, but after listening to the last sentence, she was stunned.
Ashan reminded, "Why don't you thank your grace quickly?"
"Thank you for your kindness!" Dieer subconsciously kowtowed her head, but asked blankly, "But... how long can the Empress say..."
"I can give you the opportunity to serve Princess Xiping." Mu Bi said slowly, "However, you haven't served the princess, and I don't know whether Princess Xiping likes you or not, so if you don't think you are as good as the princess, or if I don't think you have done well, then where do you come from or where to go back, understand?"
Seeing Dieer's depressed face, she said leisurely, "If you don't want to, go back."
"No!" Die'er hurriedly said, "Thank you, maidservant! The maidservant must serve the princess well and try to satisfy the maidservant as soon as possible and ask the princess to agree to leave the maidservant!"
"Very good, let's go." Mu Bi smiled and said.
