Zhu Yijun unfurled the portrait, "How many palace maid s did the Palace Manager send to serve the empress?"

"They went to a total of four great palace maid s, two eunuchs and a head aunt to serve the Empress." Zhang Cheng replied, "The rest of the Palace Manager s are still in the process of training. We'll wait for the Empress to return to the palace before we head back to Kunning Palace to serve them."

"The four palace maid s are too few." Zhu Yijun said as he frowned, he took a glance at the drawing, and as there was nothing abnormal, he called for people to roll it up, "Go and take a few more, just in case those two little girls who are not worth much also come and show off."

"Xi Tao followed the Empress when she was at Chuxiu Palace, and left the palace together with her. Palace Manager originally thought that the Empress might want to bring a few girls who had been used to using their body since childhood into the palace. I will speak with Palace Manager Cui immediately and ask Palace Manager to choose two more palace maid s to send over. " Zhang Cheng said.

"The two portraits the Empress sent should not be to show off to His Majesty. According to my knowledge, these two portraits were given to the Empress by Madam Marquis Wu Qing." Zhang Cheng said.

"Madam Marquis Wu Qing?" Zhu Yijun did not understand, but then he shook his head suddenly, "This Queen Mother would not agree right?"

"I don't know about that. In any case, since the Marquis Wu Qing's wife sent it over, the Queen took it. He is currently learning the palace rules from the manager's aunt." Zhang Cheng said.

"What does' I ask 'mean?" Zhu Yijun wrote on the ground. You should still send two palace maid s over to it, send them at the same time. "

Zhang Cheng brought along His Majesty's doubts as well as two palace maid s. Wang Rong then put his letters to the side, "Send more people, I can't even stay in this small courtyard anymore. How about this, Aunt Mei, you choose two of our current palace maid s to follow Inner Attendant Zhang back to the palace. I don't need that many people to serve me right now. "

Hearing this, Mei Dong was troubled. He was unable to tell if the Empress was making things difficult for her or testing her. She composed herself and thought for a moment. "Then, Xing'er and Cyan Orchid can go back to the palace."

"Just do as Aunt Mei says." Wang Rong said, "Let the two of them pack their things, Inner Attendant Zhang, please wait for a moment." Thus, she brought out a pen and paper. After Wang Rong He finished reading, she wrote a reply and Wuyou took the box over and placed the letter into the box, then returned the box back to its original position.

Xi Tao was more familiar with Wang Rong, and when came to serve her, she took a step back, and Dong Zhi told her, "We can forget about what happened later, the Empress won't trust us right from the start. You served the Empress while she was at the Chuxiu Palace, how can you avoid the two little girls now?

"All of this is for the Empress's comfort. What's the meaning of giving us face?" Xi Tao did not care about all these. Her talent was dull, if she did not meet the Empress, even in her dreams she would not think that there would come a day where she would serve the Empress. She still needed to learn a lot of things. If there was someone who could serve the Empress and make her feel comfortable, then it would be because her skills were inferior, so how could she still envy others?

Wang Ronghe wrote a few lines, then crumpled up a piece of paper and threw it away. Always writing like this to dispel all doubts, it was a bit boring, and there were some things that could only be understood and not told. If she wrote down that sending a portrait to His Majesty meant 'Look, this is the concubine your grandmother prepared for you, would you be satisfied with that?' She didn't know what His Majesty would do, but if she had to send the little girl back, she would feel embarrassed.

Thus, after thinking for a moment, he said, "I have a new one by Lu Bo, and it was brought back by Inner Servant Zhang for His Majesty to read."

"His Majesty is already past the age of playing Lu Bo. It would be nice if he could give it to King Lu." "Yes, ma'am," Zhang said with a smile.

"Then let His Majesty call King Lu over to play together. My Lu Bo is different from the ones on the market. It's fun to play with." Wang Rong He said, "Let me write down the rules first."

Zhang Cheng went to the empress's house and sent two palace maids back to fetch two palace maids, Lu Bo, a set of ivory chess jade plates, farmers, merchants, and scholars, three characters, rolling dice and walking, every pit had its meaning, it was possible to get rich as well as get rich, but on the way he threw them into the prison and even stopped to play for a while. There were a lot of prisons. Farmers did not pay taxes or have disputes with their neighbors. Businessmen robbed the city of its prices. If a scholar became an official, then he would be corrupted and take bribes. The final winner of the game was naturally the player who reached the end point first and became a first rank player.

When they heard that their royal brother was looking for them, they eagerly came over. After they heard that their royal brother was looking for them, they couldn't help but pout their mouths and say, "Rei An is at such an unreasonable age, why did royal brother call her here?"

"Even royal brother didn't leave you behind when you were that young." Zhu Yijun laughed and said, "The Queen sent over a little thing for us to have fun with. She said that she wanted us to play with her, but this thing needs to be played by three people, so we called Rei An over."

As the youngest daughter of the Empress Dowager Li, Rei An's mother was now the empress dowager, and her brother was the emperor. She was a noble princess who could walk unhindered in the palace, and the Empress Dowager Li was very strict with the emperor, while King Lu was already very relaxed.

"Big brother Emperor." Rei An was only nine years old, and was still a little girl. The golden pearl held onto her bag as she wore a big red jacket and skirt, and there was a long lock on her chest.

Zhu Yijun weighed her, "Has Rei An been getting heavier recently?"

"Big Brother Emperor, the wet nurse said I'm growing, not getting fat." Rei An pouted.

Zhu Yijun remembered that Wang Rong He had also said something like that before, and laughed: "That's right, there is someone fourteen or fifteen years old that is still growing, shouldn't we, Rei An, have a body instead?"

The Tian siblings were gathered together to share their kinship. The usual scene of them dispersing with just a few words was now filled with interest as they sat around a plate of Lu Bo.

Rei An held onto the merchant's chess piece, but her luck was bad. It was not easy for her to throw a sieve and she was already completely imprisoned. She stopped playing for a lap, and this repeated action made her pout so small that it could be hung with oil bottles. This merchant is too difficult. "

Businessmen are hard, that's right." "Businessmen take advantage of opportunities," Zhu said. "Money comes easily. If a man has money, it will inflate his luxury and ruin the social culture. If the country wants to stay in power for a long time, it will have to do business lightly.

"But merchants are also citizens of the heavens. They work diligently and diligently every day. They also contribute the same amount of taxes to the country, so why should they treat them differently?" Rei An was not convinced.

Zhu Yijun was a little stumped. He had a stomach full of ideas that could be said to be important to light farmers, but did he want to say this to his sister?

"Aiyo, your luck isn't good. If you don't believe me, I will trade with you. You take peasant chess, the country is more about farming, and I can guarantee that you will be sent to prison in two or three steps. This isn't a human problem, it's your problem." King Lu said leisurely.

It wasn't easy for King Lu to go from a farmer to a big landlord. Rei An had only played for three rounds, and the landlord had already gone bankrupt. The farmers could not bear the difference and had to use the alcohol to chase after their memories every day.

"I don't want to play anymore." Rei An reported, "I am a princess, how can my luck be so bad?"

"You are a princess, how can you be unlucky?" Zhu Yijun laughed, "It's just bad, with royal brother here, we won't need to rely on luck to eat."

"Your majesty, Master Zhang Juzheng wants to report the process of the whip art." Feng Bao entered and asked for instructions.

"Please invite Chief Zhang to the study room to wait for me. I will go right away." Zhu Yijun said.

Zhu Yijun had political affairs, so King Lu and Princess Rei An were about to leave. King Lu bowed and said, "Royal brother, your servant has seen that Lu Bo's description is smooth and beautiful, your subject has been training hard recently. Can Imperial brother borrow this description to copy?"

Zhu Yijun smiled and pointed at him, "Obviously you can't bear to part with Lu Bo, and even said that you want to borrow Lu Bo's instructions to read.

"Of course, I can't hide my younger brother's intentions from him." King Lu laughed simple-mindedly.

"Fine, I'll lend it to you to play for two days. Also, I'll have the Internal Affairs Bureau make one for you. When the time comes, you'll have to return the original version to us." Zhu Yijun said.

"Thank you, royal brother." King Lu was overjoyed.

While speaking, Zhang Cheng swiftly put away all the chess pieces, and even specially packed boxes. When King Lu wanted to come over, he directly carried them in his arms, and Zhu Yijun could not help but exhort him, "Take good care of him."

"I will." King Lu said.

After exiting the Qianqing Palace, Rei An quickly followed King Lu, "You can also let me play for a day."

"Didn't you say that you don't want to play?" King Lu said.

"I think I'm a princess, how can my luck be so bad? The princess' luck is naturally not bad, but if the one playing with the princess is the emperor and the other is a prince, then the princess' luck is definitely the worst. " Rei An said, "When you go back, you will only be playing with the guards and eunuchs, and I will also take it back to play with the palace maid. I don't believe that my luck is that bad?"

This is something that the empress gave to His Majesty. If I lend it to you and you use it again, how can I explain that? "When mine comes, you can play with whatever you want." After saying that, King Lu carried the box and left like a wisp of smoke.

"empress?" Rei An read, "Then I'll just get empress to gift me one."

"I am His Majesty's blood sister. Even sister-in-law of the people wants to please her sister-in-law."

After some time, the Imperial Consort Candidate had already gotten used to the transformation from Imperial Consort Candidate to concubine. The palace was divided into three groups, one group was attached to the Imperial Consort Guo, the other one was attached to the Imperial Lower Consort Liu, and the third group was filled with no desires or thoughts. The people who were attached to the Imperial Lower Consort Yang were all hoping to sell themselves to Wang Rong, who had not yet entered the palace. Therefore, even though the Imperial Lower Consort Yang was a low-key, Imperial Lower Consort Liu, he was straightforward and did not have any pets, hence they still gathered around them. The days before the empress had entered the palace were her opportunities. She wanted to be pampered while also trying to rope in her concubines. The harem was never a place to fight one on one.

She had arranged for a few contestants to meet with her majesty to be pampered, but there was still a beauty Luo who was attached to the Imperial Lower Consort Yang, a person that she had never pampered before. Imperial Lower Consort Liu had gone to her palace but did not stay there.

The Imperial Lower Consort Liu was open and open to outsiders, so she was still the leader of the group. It was just that she and the Imperial Lower Consort Yang had other matters to discuss with each other first. "His Majesty has come to my house many times but not many times, so why didn't he recommend the other sisters to me with a calm face? I haven't been able to receive any important information, so my sister told me not to do such a thing if I don't have the confidence to win the fight."

"Beauty Cui said that I don't care about the sisters. I can't even recommend you, let alone Beauty Luo and Beauty Yin." Yang Jingru said rather gloomily.

"I have already told Beauty Luo and Beauty Yin that we are not in a hurry to accept your favor at this time. So, you shouldn't pressure yourself. You just need to reinforce your pet properly." Liu Jing said, "I'm afraid Your Majesty has his opinions towards me, so what if they are not passed on? I can only think of a solution after I enter the palace. "

"It won't do us any good if they rely on you. I'm afraid they will still choose to join the Imperial Consort Guo." Yang Jingru worriedly said, "I'm afraid that by the time big sister enters the palace, we'll be too weak."

"Imperial Consort Guo probably won't make a move against us right now, right?" Liu Jing said uncertainly.

"Empress, this isn't good." Yang Jingru's palace maid quickly rushed in, "Today, your majesty has flipped through beauty Yin's signboard, and after dinner, beauty Yin took a bath, changed into clothes, and sent them to Qianqing Palace. She was sent out in less than a quarter of an hour, and while waiting for your majesty, beauty Yin became incontinent."

"How could that be?" Yang Jingru stood up and said.

"It's better to incontinence together with urination." Chu Yun was also in a difficult position, "Your Majesty only heard that beauties can't be pampered, and that they are reduced to being contestants, giving out Chuxiu Palace."

"How could that be?" Liu Jing muttered, "If you feel uncomfortable, you can say so. It's taboo to sleep with a patient."

"That's not right." Yang Jingru shook her head, "We used to use silver as well, but Your Majesty has never flipped through Beauty Yin's plate. In fact, Her Majesty has not checked any new tablets for the past few days, I'm afraid today Beauty Yin has someone asking her to flip one, this incontinence must not be simple either."

"Imperial Consort Guo." Liu Jing said.
