Chapter 932: 239 Palm House (one more)

By the time Nangong Yu returned to the palace, it had already passed.
Nangong Ai stepped out of the carriage in front of Ermen and looked around this huge palace, and suddenly felt empty, and that feeling seemed to spread to her heart.
She stood stunned and stood still for a long time, until Bai Hui whispered in her ear: "Sir concubine, uncle Zhou and uncle Zhu come to see you!"
Uncle Zhou and Uncle Zhu? Nangong Yu looked along Bai Hui's eyes, and saw a black-faced man and a bearded man bowing and waiting not far away, with a respectful look, which was exactly the Zhou Dacheng and She she had seen in her Huangzhuang before Zhu Xing.
It turned out that Xiao Yi didn't bring them both.
Nangong Nian walked towards the two, and they bowed together to salute her: "I have seen the concubine."
Nangong Yan raised his hand and said, "No courtesy, let's go to the foreign study to talk." Xiao Yi left, and his foreign study was also used by Nangong Hui.
After a few people arrived at the study, Nangong Yan sat down after the book case. "Sit down, don't be too restrained." Since Xiao Yi asked the two to come to see him, they must have something to say.
"Thank you, concubine." Zhou Dacheng and Zhu Xing disrespectfully sat down on two pear-wood circle chairs, and Zhu Xing said first: "Sir concubine, he left his subordinate, hoping that his subordinate would be in the palace. He is temporarily acting as steward. In addition, the clerical office in the outer court is temporarily under the supervision of his subordinates. "
housekeeper? Nangong froze and let a man who came down from the battlefield be a housekeeper.
Zhu Xing continued to explain: "The original housekeeper of the Zhennan Palace was the successor of the princess. After the princess left, he was driven away by the grandfather. Cheng Yu has been the steward for the time being. Grandpa returned to southern Xinjiang, so he transferred it to his subordinates. "
Nan Gongxi could not help thinking of Xiao Yi's remark that he was "looking for someone's teeth" last night. It was really sweaty. Hey, in terms of stewardship, he really messed up. When Cheng Yu waited for a while, it seemed that talents such as military divisions or aides were also used as ambassadors. They really used chickens to kill chickens. But this time, Cheng Yu followed Xiao Yi back to southern Xinjiang, and finally he can show off his strengths, so there is no need to headache these household chores.
Following this, Nangong Gong's eyes turned to Zhou Dacheng again. Without her asking, Zhou Dacheng took the initiative to say: "Sir concubine, his subordinates are temporarily in charge of the guards in the house and responsible for the guarding of the palace." He really did not know how to deal with it. A little girl like Nangong Di, who can only talk stiffly, "Sister Concubine rest assured that with her subordinates, she will not let any Xiaoxiao disturb the concubine!"
Obviously, Xiao Yi gave Zhou Dacheng a hard job to find something to do. The palace was empty. There was only one master in Nangong, and there was nothing to do. I am afraid that even the housekeeper Zhu Xing was very busy.
Nangong said helplessly, "I will trouble you then."
"No trouble, no trouble, this is the duty of the subordinates!" This week ’s achievement is a rectum, and it is impossible to understand the meaning of the words. Zhu Xing was so embarrassed that his forehead was so cold that he really wanted to treat him as if he did n’t know him. .
Nangong Yan was amused, and his corner of the mouth was ticked.
After groaning for a while, she said to Zhu Xing, "Zhu Xing, send me all the accounts in this house tomorrow, let me see."
If this is what ordinary people fear most, the master will check the accounts, but Zhu Xing's eyes will be bright when he hears it, and some can't wait to answer. He knew that Nangong was going to preside over the feed. Once the concubine in this world took the shot, he would be relaxed in the future.
He was relieved not only by Nangong Geng, but also by Bai Hui and Lily. The two little girls exchanged a look.
Lily secretly said: The people in this world are really unreliable!
After talking for a while, Nangong Yu returned to Fufengyuan with Baihui Lily.
Things in this house, she intends to wait to see the roster left by Xiao Yi, and the accounts in the house, now it is urgent to organize her dowry and file it in the warehouse. In addition, although the new house is decorated in a festive way, obviously the people in the House are just trying to create a festive atmosphere, which is somewhat awkward, and she intends to take care of it.
As a result, the entire Fufeng Yuan was busy under the leadership of Nangong Yu.
She opened three new coffers, put all the dowry books into the warehouse, and changed the interior furnishings from screens to vases to curtains to cushions, etc. Because she was still newly married, she still used the The festive red is dominated, but it adds a bit of Shihlin's low-key and elegant.
It took two days to finish this, and Nangong Yu again picked up the small study in the West Room with interest.
This small study is more than double the size of her at Mozhuyuan, and the next time is the medicine cabinet that Xiao Yi specially created for her.
There is a row of partition windows facing south in the study room. It seems that the light is very bright. There are book cases, painting cases, piano cases, case tables, beauties, tables and chairs, etc. There are also rows of bookshelves against the wall. It's empty now, but Nangong Yan seems to have smelled the thick and familiar book fragrance.
Several little girls have cleaned the study again, and Bai Hui directs some of the royal women ’s mother-in-law to bring in a large box of camphor wood, and the big box is really heavy, and the wife-in-law is lifted soon. sweating a lot. A mother-in-law whispered curiously, "Girl Bai Hui, this box is so heavy, isn't it because the books aren't there?" I thought to myself, with so many boxes, how many books should there be? I am afraid that there are not so many books in Wang Ye's study!
Bai Hui glanced at the wife lightly, and said, "Go out when you're done. Why are you asking so much?"
The mother-in-law went out with several other mother-in-laws, and could even hear the voices of the mother-in-law talking: "I heard that the concubine is the door of Shuxiang, it is really different from others! Actually, I have married so many books. . "
"Yeah, so many books, can Shi Zifei finish reading?"
"..."
It's out of order!
Bai Hui shook her head, letting those voices go, followed by telling the little girls to open the box, and took out a few of the boxes of medical books, medicine books, and Lin Jingchen's medical notes. Nangong Aya personally grouped them into the largest bookshelf, and then asked the girls to help with the "University", "The Analects", "Spring and Autumn", "Historical Records" and so on. Strange novels, wild history essays, etc.
The case of the book is based on the preferences of Nangong Palace, and it is decorated with Zhaoqing's portrayal, Songli ink fountain of Goryeo, and white brushes of Hetian Baiyu, a purple pen of different sizes, just let it look so pleasing.
After the entire small study room was cleaned up, Nangong Xiong placed the dowry herbs one by one in the medicine hall, which was a success.
Nangong Yan looked around with satisfaction. Although he was a bit tired after working for a long time, but now he finally looked where he was and where he was comfortable. Even if he had to work, he had to create an environment that made him feel comfortable.
Like the boudoir in Mozhuyuan in the past, Nangong Li lazily leaned on the beauty couch by the window of the small study, casually ordering the girls to take the account book that Zhu Xing had sent yesterday.
After a while, a few girls took the books over, and there was a huge pile of books on the books.
When Nangong Yan was looking at some headaches, Lily blessed and said, "Sir concubine, the news that Uncle Zhu just passed to the palace."
Nangong raised his eyebrows. Although Xiao Yi planted a person in the palace, the news was passed directly to the outer court, unless it was related to her.
She glanced at Lily and saw that Lily said a little bit inexplicably: "... It is said that the second princess secretly left the palace two days ago, it seems that she is chasing after the world grandfather."
Nangong Yan looked down slightly, unhappy.
If the second princess's love for Xiao Yi is clearly revealed, "If you know what is good, you will adore Shao Ai", and you can't say that it is totally wrong to care about others.
However, after Xiao Yi has made a relationship with herself, and even now she has become a relationship, the second princess is still so entangled with the husband and wife, it is simply shameless! Really think you're a mess?
Xiao Yi is her husband, how can she tolerate others!
There was no mood swing in Nangong's face, "Did the Queen know?"
"The queen still doesn't know," Lily replied. "Zhang Fei declared that the second princess was ill and needed to recuperate, so the news was suppressed. The third prince is quietly sending someone to find the second princess."
Nangong pinched his lips slightly and said with a sneer, "Tell Zhou Dacheng, let people think of this news to the queen."
Lily responded and hurried out to give the order.
Nan Gongxi waved his face slightly, letting Bai Hui and Yuner go to see the books first.
She took a sip of tea, opened the white seal roster to the palace of Xiao Yi, and turned it up casually.
There are only 58 people guarded by the servants in this huge Zhennan royal palace. This is almost unbelievable for the Nangongyu born in the famous family.
The roster contains notes on the origin of these people. After looking at Nangong Yu, it was found that most of them were bought by Wang Fang, the little concubine of Zhennan, in Wangdu, and haven't been in the government for a few years; part of them are slaves and guards who are rewarded today; A small part of them stayed in the palace to look after and clean the house when they were first emperors; a small part was from Zhennan King and Xiao Fang's staff from southern Xinjiang, but this part was less than she expected. many.
Also, I am afraid that the people of King Zhennan and Xiao Fang's are not rarely left in the capital of the king. I am afraid that leaving them in the capital of the king is no different from being exiled, maybe there is no day in their lifetime.
Suddenly, Wuer whispered, "This is too outrageous." She held the account book and showed it to Nan Gongyu. "Three girls, the clothes in the inner courtyard are actually outfits. I bought it in the shop ... "Then she twitched at the corner of her mouth. This place looks like the royal palace of a prince, and I am afraid that even the merchants who are a little richer will look down on it!
Nangong 玥 casually glanced, judging by the quantity of those garments on the account, it really is.
So, in the past two days, one more urgent matter has to be done. It is necessary to open the warehouse and get the material to make the autumn and winter clothing for the people in the inner courtyard first, and add the girl-in-law and the housemates whom she married.
However, it is not too late, let's talk about tomorrow tomorrow.
Nangong yawned lazily, closed the roster, and let the girls take care of their meals.
...
In the early morning the next morning, Nangong in Dingding Province was not required to get up, wash, dress, and eat. Anyway, there are no elders in this house, and she is the biggest.
After all things were over, Bai Hui asked, "Sister Concubine, when you have breakfast, Zhang Ye and Song Ye have already come, saying they are going to greet you, and they will be dismissed first by slavery. Will you wait? Let that Zhang Ye and Song Ye bring your daughter-in-law in the house to ask you for a favor, so you can recognize him? "Xiao Fang is not there, and there is no hostess in the inner court of the Zhennan Palace. The affairs of the inner court are basically controlled by Zhang Jian and Song Yong.
Nangong Yu didn't want those irrelevant people to enter his yard, and made him noisy, so he said, "Let them go to the front hall."
"Yes, concubine." Xun Er was ordered to go down to work, waiting for the thrush to return, said that the daughter-in-law's wife had arrived, and Nangong Xuan took An Niang and a group of eyebrow-like girls like the stars and the moon. Head to the main hall.
At this time, the sky outside was already bright.
The main hall of this inner courtyard is opposite to the two doors. The blue brick and white walls are red tiles. The four black paint partition doors are open at the same time. There are two couplets on the left and right walls. A plaque with three big characters-"Wushoutang" written on it.
These three characters are written by Xiandi himself.
The font is strong and powerful, galloping and indulgent.
Next to the large plaque is a large rosewood carving case. On the table, there are large paintings of Zhao Molong waiting to be missed. On both sides are two rosewood inlaid marble master chairs, which are thick and upright, elegant and chic. A small case was placed between every two chairs. The ground is a mirror-like marble floor.
What a magnificent hall!
Nangong Gong's eyes stopped on the rosewood wood master chair next to the large rosewood carving case. This chair was originally an official chair, a symbol of power and status. Its design and shape are designed to highlight the status and identity of the owner, suitable for tall and strong A man who is suitable for an old lady like Jaeger-LeCoultre, but not very suitable for Nangong Yu.
I saw her slim figure sitting on the top, it seemed that the teacher's chair was empty, not only set off her momentum, but made her thin and weak.
The slaves on standby inside and outside the hall quietly glanced at the newly concubine who had just passed through the door, secretly exchanging eyes.
The girl next to her hurriedly gave her hot tea.
Nangong Nian sipped his hot tea and looked up. Inside the hall, two middle-aged women in their 40s and 50s stood respectfully, a short, round face, which seemed to be somewhat thick and dressed in emerald blue. Pigment-faced silk crickets; another is not short, not fat, neither tall nor thin, with a beautiful mole on the corner of the mouth, and a budgerigar green silk cricket.
Even if no one introduced them, Nangong Yu guessed that the two were Zhang Ye and Song Ye.
According to records on the roster, this Zhangye came out of the palace. It is said that it was awarded to Xiao Yi's grandfather when the first emperor gave the mansion. He has been guarding the mansion here for years. Originally, she spoke in the backyard. After Xiao Fang's arrival to the capital, Song Ye was left to help with the affairs.
Outside the main hall, there were rows of mother-in-laws standing in a mess, with some straight waists, some with humpbacks, some with whistle-blowing ears, and at first glance they seemed to be lazy and unruly.
My son came forward and was blessed, and introduced Zhang Ye and Song Ye to Nangong Yu.
Both Zhang Huan and Song Huan took a step forward, respectfully saluting themselves: "I've seen the concubine!" The two concubines just heard that the new housekeeper had already met the concubine in the study, and later Fufeng The movement in the courtyard, guessing that Shi Zifei should start to hold the middle and give back, so I thought about trying the character of this Shi Zifei.
This Fufengyuan is like an iron bucket. The servants in the house are basically the maidservants married by Shi Zifei. It turns out that the maids in the government do at least rough things, not only the sprinkler wheels in Shizifei ’s bedroom. To them, even when they went into the house to clean, they were always staring at each other.
However, the two uncles retreated without any difficulty, thinking that this dry road would not work, so they took the water way. They could not see Shi Zifei's people, and they could also use the kitchen to send meals to determine the time of Shi Zifei ’s meals. The two knew that Shi Zifei had just begun to eat breakfast, so they rushed to say hello to her, and wanted to see how Shi Zifei would respond. Unexpectedly, the concubine of this world's concubine was very irritated, and did not report it, so they sent them lightly, leaving them in doubt. Seeing the concubine can see her master, this world concubine is afraid of being powerful.
Therefore, although the two old women saw Nangong Xiong looking young and cute, they did not dare to make inferior positions, and kept their knees bent, until Nangong Yan signaled them to be polite, and they stood up.
Song Xun first said: "The old slave should have come to please the concubine, but thinking that she is too busy to dare to bother you, and asked the concubine to forgive her." After a pause, she continued. , "Sir concubine, the subordinates in the inner court are waiting outside the hall, and only the two wives who have kept the door have not come. Would you let them all come in and give you a concubine?"
She smiled diligently at Nangong, a look of humiliation, while Zhang Ye on the side was not anxious, secretly sneered, thinking: This Song Yan is a person brought by Princess Fang Xiao, no matter how she behaves No matter how loyal, Shi Zifei could never trust her. No matter how much she did, she would just light the blind—in vain.
Nan Gongyi glanced at Bai Hui, and Bai Hui said: "Let some supervisors come in, and the others will give Shi Zifei a head outside and let go."
"Yes, concubine. The old slave is going to be called." After Song Ying responded, he diligently walked out of the hall, and soon brought four wives and two thirty-forty-year-old wives. Come in.
And the rest of the people fell down on the blue slate floor in unison, greeted Nangong Hoe, and then dispersed.
After Song Ye brought people to the hall, he introduced them one by one. This one usually manages the kitchen, this one is needle and thread, this one is sprinkled, this one is purchased and purchased, and this one is controlled by the doorman. This is tube-like.
After that, the six also bowed their heads and saluted, and asked in unison.
Nangong Rong didn't ask them to get up, but instead told Ronger, "Ronger, call them."
they?
Zhang Huan and Song Huan both stunned, I don't know what medicine Nangong Lu sells.
Soon, they saw her son leading three people into it. One was an old wife in her fifties, and the other two seemed to be young daughters in their early thirties.
The two uncles and others are psychologically awkward. Although they do not know who the surname of the person brought by her is, they know that they are the accompaniment of the concubine. Naturally, the concubine will not simply accompany the room Called over, a thought suddenly came to their hearts ...
But it was quickly rejected in my heart, wasn't it? Even if the concubine is definitely going to install a manpower in the government, she won't take a shot as soon as she meets, right? After all, she just got married, she can't do too much, and spreading it out is not good for her ...
That's why they thought about it, and they listened to Xiaoer's introduction and said with a smile: "These three are Pan Dai, Yu Dawei's, and Wu Ran's."
All three have blessed Zhang Ye and Song Ye.
Followed by, Nangong Yan said slowly: "In the future, Pan Yan, Yu Dawei's family, and Wu Ran's family will take over the kitchen, doormanship and purchasing affairs!"
One word made the six in this hall stare in disbelief. Three of the six kneeling on the ground suddenly raised their heads, shocked and outraged. They have not dared to speak yet, Song Kun has already jumped. Get up and say, "Why are you, Princess? Although they can't say anything good in the three weekdays, they haven't made any serious mistakes, they have no hard work and they have a lot of hard work. ? "
After a brief shock, Zhang Huan immediately returned to peace.
The so-called: the new officer took three fires, anyway, the fire of Shi Zifei has little effect on herself. More than four years ago, after Song Ying came to the capital, he took away the kitchen, shopping, and needlework from his own hands. This kitchen and shopping was a big oil and water. What other benefits do you have? It's tantamount to Song Ye's backyard stewardship being nothing more than an empty job. As for myself, there is only one less guard.
After he figured it out, Zhang Ye smiled ironically in his heart, and he thought he was right. The prince Shi and Fang Xiaofang were destined to be natural enemies. Important errand!
Zhang Ye thought about it more and more, and felt that Shi Zifei must have considered it carefully. The doorkeeper was optional for herself, but for Shi Zifei, it is naturally the most important thing to keep the door of this inner courtyard. , There must be no sloppy!
Since the concubine in this world knows a lot, then she is still waiting to see a good show.
Nangong Gong gave a glance at Song Yan, still not arrogant, and said, "I am the concubine of the world, if I want to deploy staff, do you still have to agree with Song Yan? If I were to tune Song Yan to die today My son is in Zhuangzi in Tangshan, do you want to go or not? "
Song Ye's face turned red for a moment, and his breath stuck in his chest. Is this the concubine threatening to fail? Song Yan was so angry that he almost didn't breathe, and Foreign Strong said dryly: "Sir concubine, old ... the slave is the one appointed by the princess herself!"
Nangong Niao drew a corner of his mouth, and smiled and said with a smile: "Song Xun, the mother-in-law has always cared for the son of the world. If you know that the son of Zhuangzi is not in charge, you will be willing to send him to help the son. Besides, I am also inconvenient to ask for instructions, so let me decide and send them over. "
Nor did she need to tell her that Bai Hui had already ordered two big, rounded wives to step forward, and clamped Song Yan left and right.
"you……"
Song Yan also wanted to yell, but Lily had plugged his mouth with a rag, and was kicked out by being kicked.
Several daughters-in-law kneeling on the ground looked at each other secretly, their heads were big.
After the princess left, Shi Zi, the biggest son in this house, certainly wanted to take advantage of the run and step down on others so that they could get ahead. However, Shi Zi would do everything and simply let the people lock the inner courtyard. Lock them up like they are in jail, and they are not allowed to go in or out except for buying.
Shizi didn't discuss it here. They once thought that these hard times were afraid of hope, but the emperor would make Shizi get married so soon.
Originally, they thought that after the concubine came into the door, the inner court would not have to be locked. They could finally "go out of prison", they could let go of their hands and feet and show their magical powers, but they didn't want this young concubine to act It was even more rude than Shizi. When Shizi was there, he hid from seeing them. After Shizi left, he showed the true face of Lushan. How could an ordinary newly-married woman just marry in, she would not say a few things. , And then arrogantly planted his own dowry, and even Song Yan, who has been prestigious in this government, was suppressed in the blink of an eye and ended in exile!
This is clearly the killing of chickens and tamarins, and everyone else is trembling with cold, and a cold sweat comes from the forehead.
Didn't you say that Princess Shi is the maid of the Nangong family? This kind of girl brought up by the Shihlin people should not be so gentle and saucy. How can she be more aggressive than those of the generals?
Nangong Yan looked at the reactions of several people in the hall, but did not smile.
