Self-cultivation after the cannon fodder

Chapter 7

With the vigilance of the red blood bar, Zhu Sining decided to organize the harem regiment as soon as possible.

The spring is bright and beautiful, which is the best time to visit the Royal Garden, a famous scenic spot in the palace.Adhering to the purpose of breaking barriers, enhancing communication, and establishing mutual trust and a more harmonious harem environment, the first harem tea party was launched.

Zhu Sining sent invitations to every concubine, asking them to arrange other activities and come to participate as much as possible.

The empress who had been in the palace for a long time and hadn't made a move wanted to make a big one as soon as she did it, and the other concubines murmured in their hearts. As soon as Zhu Sining entered the palace, Concubine Lu showed an attitude of neither fighting nor grabbing, and instead gained the other party's reliance. Now that she comes out, I don't know who instigated it...

Zhu Sining can probably understand why Concubine Lu Gui was promoted so quickly, because in the entire harem, Concubine Lu Guifei is probably the only one who is sensitive to numbers and can strictly control various expenses.Although Zong Qihao does not participate in the activities of the harem, he still has to grasp the general direction. If the harem violates his imperial dominance in any way, he will definitely not be soft-hearted.

Counting the time, now is almost the time for the officials to worry about Zong Qihao's heirs and ask for the expansion of the harem.

Enrollment expansion is impossible, Zong Qihao's mind is not on this at all, so Xiao Yiming will be very considerate to advise Zong Qihao, suggesting that he can start from the harem, so as to refuse the draft.

As a wise monarch, Zong Qihao's vision is of course to be prosperous and strong. When all nations come to court, a harem for decoration can be useless, but it can't do bad things, and can't spend too much to affect other financial expenditures.

Although Xiao Yiming only mentioned it, Zong Qihao paid attention to this matter, and the original body was not familiar with economic affairs, and he didn't want to offend the aristocratic family represented by the concubine, so what Zong Qihao said The harem is dissatisfied with spending too much.

——The harem has never been in trouble, and he is the second son of King Qin. He is more worried about his father and brother going to the battlefield than anyone else. If the harem's expenses are really too high and affect the front line, he will find a way to reduce it no matter what.

This is the contradiction between Yuanchen and Zong Qihao, especially when the key plot is about to come soon, it will be Xiao Yiming's highlight moment at that time, and Yuanchen will find out later that this matter is related to Xiao Yiming, which will have a great impact on him. Dissatisfied and jealous.

How to manage Zhu Sining's tea party in the imperial garden will be left to Concubine Lu Gui.

Early in the morning, Lu Guifei went to the Jiaofang Palace to look for Zhu Sining.

When she arrived, Zhu Sining had already woken up and was about to have breakfast.

"It's so early, imperial concubine, have you had breakfast?" Zhu Sining greeted, "Would you like some more?"

"Thank you Your Highness, the concubine has already eaten."

She was sitting upright without moving, but Zhu Sining could still feel her uneasiness.

"Your Majesty is not here, so you don't have to be so nervous," Zhu Sining said slowly, "You've done a good job, I like it very much, and I'm glad you are willing to help me."

Concubine Lu Gui seemed a little overwhelmed: "Don't dare, it's my honor to help His Highness."

It's hard to continue the conversation with such one-sided flattery...

After Zhu Sining had breakfast, he went to the Imperial Garden with Concubine Lu Gui.

The advantage of being a leader is probably that you only need to issue orders, and there are a group of people below to take care of them.

Originally, according to Zhu Sining's idea, hot pot or barbecue would be more suitable for eating together, but considering that the concubines have lived a fastidious life since childhood, and some of them may have cleanliness, they finally gave up.

However, along with the invitation, there is also a menu, allowing the concubines to order their favorite dishes, so that everyone can eat as satisfied and happy as possible.

After eating, Zhu Sining forcibly allocated seats: "Now we will switch seats. Except for the people on the left and right sides, you can't choose, and you can sit in any combination."

Werewolf Killer is not very friendly to novices, and it is difficult to localize. Let’s have a simple version of Tianhe, please close your eyes.

"It doesn't sound too difficult, can it be fun?" This is Wang Zhaoyi, who came from a family. At first, she put on airs and refused to agree to Zhu Sining's invitation. Later, she found that everyone else was willing to go, but she didn't. In the end, I had to make an excuse to accompany Concubine Xu Shu, who lived with me, to participate.

Concubine Xu Shu is her close friend in her boudoir, with watery almond eyes, petite and exquisite, as delicate as a willow, and will fall down when the wind blows.

But compared to Wang Zhaoyi, who is hot-tempered and choking, he is definitely much better at speaking.

Concubine Xu Shu bent her almond eyes and said with a smile: "The concubine thinks it's quite interesting. If it's not fun, it's the same for us to continue playing mahjong. But His Highness looks like an old hand. It's not fair which side you join. Why don't you come and be the minister of Dali Temple?" .”

The killers in the first round were Wang Zhaoyi and Lu Guifei.

There was exactly one person between them. Seeing that it was Lu Guifei, Wang Zhaoyi rolled his eyes.

Because they couldn't make a sound, the two couldn't discuss together, Concubine Lu Gui didn't move, expressing that she listened to Wang Zhaoyi's opinion.Wang Zhaoyi pointed to the person between the two.

Concubine Lu Gui shook her head and pointed at Concubine Xu Shu.

Seeing that the two were at a stalemate, Zhu Sining had no choice but to remind: "Please pay attention to the time and make a decision quickly. The rest are not allowed to open their eyes!"

In the end, the two pointed to Liu Meiren, the youngest.

"I actually died like this?" Liu Meiren couldn't believe it at all, she had no clue, after turning around, she chose Wang Zhaoyi.

Faced with Liu Meiren's identification, Wang Zhaoyi showed disdain, and she didn't even think about defending: "Her eyes are not good, and someone who can't get through with a needle, what can you see?"

Yes, this map cannon is very strong.

Zhu Sining can be sure that besides Concubine Xu Shu and Wang Zhaoyi, the people sitting here, not to mention threading needles, will pierce their own hands even if they embroider a few stitches.

After Liu Meiren was killed, she went to the side to sit with Zhu Sining, closed her eyes in the second round, and when she saw that the killer was Lu Guifei and Wang Zhaoyi teaming up, she suddenly felt bad.

But seeing them confront each other silently in order to kill someone, I couldn't help but want to laugh.

Zhu Sining put her finger on her lips, motioning her to keep quiet and wait for the two to make a decision.

After two rounds, Lu Guifei was thrown out.

Afterwards, Concubine Xu Shu suddenly identified Wang Zhaoyi, and explained the reasons in detail: "When Concubine Gui was here, you had to think about each murder for a long time." Wang Zhaoyi's fiery temper caused her and Concubine Lu to have the deepest conflict backlog.

Wang Zhaoyi was voted out and the killer failed. Concubine Lu Gui said coldly, "I said earlier that it is time to kill Concubine Xu Shu, but you are the only one who refuses."

Wang Zhaoyi raised her chin and said, "That's impossible. If you can't afford it, don't play it."

Liu Meiren, who was sitting next to Zhu Sining, secretly imitated Wang Zhaoyi's movements and winked at Zhu Sining.

Liu Meiren's family's business is even more famous than their family's official adults. Although the status is low and the salary is low, but relying on family subsidies, I really have never been afraid of anyone.She whispered to Zhu Sining: "Every time I hit the horse hanging, Sister Concubine Shu would feed Sister Zhaoyi cards, causing me to lose money all the time. But I really didn't expect Sister Concubine Shu to doubt Sister Zhaoyi."

It seems that even without Zong Qihao, the big pig's hoof, the concubines in the harem would have accumulated a lot of grievances because of playing mahjong.

If my memory serves me right, Liu Meiren, a cute girl with cute eyes and cute face, will be bankrupted in her family because she is a competitor with Xiao Yiming, which will cause her to become an important figure in the harem concubine's alliance link in the later period.And looking at Concubine Xu Shu, who was indifferent and weak, her grandfather was the imperial concubine's sacrificial wine, and he would die of exhaustion after arguing with Xiao Yiming, which made her black.

In the later stage of the original book, Concubine Xu Shu sits firmly on the Diaoyutai, the most hidden character, and even Concubine Lu Gui willingly listens to her orders.

There is no time limit for the task, but if it is not completed, it will be stuck here. Zhu Sining has been paying attention to the progress of Xiao Yiming's plot, and he has to complete the progress bar before Zong Qihao and Xiao Yiming's hearts are connected.

Seeing that the topic was getting off topic, Zhu Sining had no choice but to quickly enter the next process.

Generally speaking, today's team building activity was considered a success, but it was probably because Wang Zhaoyi still hated Concubine Lu Guifei for choosing Concubine Xu Shu in the first round of murder, and crazily targeted her.

If unfortunately you team up with Concubine Lu, you will lose due to disagreement and no tacit understanding, etc. If you are against Concubine Lu, you will launch crazy attacks, including but not limited to verbal attacks, and finally delay due to lack of overall perspective Teammates lose on their backs.

When it came to the end, basically all the concubines became much closer to the naked eye, only Wang Zhaoyi did not forget to complain to Zhu Sining in the end: "The concubine applied for a bundle of gold thread and two bundles of silver thread before, and the inner treasury clearly Don't be nervous, but the imperial concubine has been reluctant to approve it for me, and asked me to choose another color instead."

Zhu Sining said: "I approved it. There are not many gold and silver threads. If it is not necessary, I will not give it."

"The gold and silver thread in the internal treasury has always been enough, but suddenly it is not enough. It must be that the imperial concubine can't plan. What's wrong with me? As for being so fussy?!" Yingying is also good at settling accounts."

Wang Zhaoyi was unequivocal about black people: "If there is only Concubine Lu Guifei alone, and there is no one to supervise, corruption will easily occur."

...Wang Zhaoyi is a pig teammate who specializes in giving away human heads, that's right.

Concubine Xu Shu, who kept a low profile and did not want to reveal herself, bowed profusely: "Zhaoyi is too famous, and my concubine is not talented enough to take on such a heavy responsibility."

Wang Zhaoyi was appeased by Concubine Xu Shu, glared at Concubine Lu Gui with hatred, and let it go.

Zhu Sining: "I don't know what Wang Zhaoyi is going to embroider this time. Although I can't give you gold and silver threads this time, the replacements for you are all tributes from the southwest. I think the colors are bright and beautiful, but they have been left unused." It’s a pity that people use it.”

Lu Jieyu, who is good at painting and calligraphy, nodded and said, "The fruits of flowers and trees grown in the southwest are the best for painting as dyes, but it seems that few people grow them, so not many people know about them."

"Really?" Wang Zhaoyi was skeptical, "The concubine will give it a try when she returns home. If it looks good, it doesn't hurt to change the color later."

At the same time, the memorial that had been suppressed by Zong Qihao was finally sent to the Hanlin Academy to draft an imperial edict.

Xiao Yiming's tutor rubbed his ink and licked his pen, shook his head and sighed: "The drought in the Southwest is severe, starvation is everywhere, I heard that there are still people who have been sunburned to death, this is the third time that the treasury has been opened for relief, if there is no effect, the Ministry of Household Affairs There’s no money or food to come out there either.”

Xiao Yiming, who was tidying up for the teacher, lowered his eyes and remained silent, thoughtful.
