Yang Dong frowned slightly when he saw that it was his young eunuch.
"How unbecoming you are in a panic!"
"Tell me, why are you so anxious?"
The little eunuch took a deep breath and said, out of breath:
"Manager Yang, something bad has happened!"
"The personal maids of each concubine have surrounded our House of Internal Affairs!"
Clam?
Yang Dong's eyes widened suddenly.
Wait, what's going on?
All in all, why do the concubines' personal maids surround the House of Internal Affairs? Is this because they want to rebel?
No, something must have gone wrong.
Thinking of this, Yang Dong asked in a deep voice:
"What's going on? Let me explain clearly the cause and effect to this manager!"
The little eunuch trembled, adjusted his breathing and said:
"Manager Yang, this is what happened."
"Ever since His Majesty visited the Queen, these concubines have gone crazy and tried their best to deliver signs to our Ministry of Internal Affairs."
"According to the rules, after the concubines handed over the sign, we have to ask Your Majesty to read it."
"But our Majesty, you also know the manager. He never turns his cards around."
Yang Dong nodded slightly, Ji Ziyue didn't have those legs, so of course she wouldn't flip the cards.
"and after?"
"Later...the concubines waited day after day, and more and more people were sent to ask questions. Over time, it became what it is now."
"Manager Yang, hurry up and take a look! Those little maids have almost torn down the door of our House of Internal Affairs!"
The little eunuch looked eager, like an ant on a hot pot.
At this moment, Yang Dong also realized the seriousness of the problem, and immediately stood up and rushed to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
But as soon as he took two steps, his body suddenly stopped.
Wait, even if I go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs at this moment, what can I do?
I can't turn over the cards for His Majesty, can I?
So he immediately turned around and said to the little eunuch:
"Go back to the House of Internal Affairs immediately and tell the palace maids who are causing trouble. I have already gone to ask His Majesty for instructions. If anyone dares to cause trouble again, they will be dealt with according to the palace rules."
After saying that, he ran all the way to Shangqing Palace.
…
Shangqing Palace,
The empress holds a pen with one hand and outlines the plum trees outside the window.
But somehow, every time she started writing, the scene on the dragon couch that day would appear in her mind.
After a few strokes, my legs were already wet.
At this moment, the eunuch announced outside the door.
"Your Majesty, Manager Yang would like to see you."
Xiao Dongzi?
Isn't he busy with the West Factory? How come he has time to come to me? Could it be...
The empress seemed to have thought of something, and a smile appeared on her face.
Then, she heard Yang Dong's familiar voice.
"Your Majesty, something bad has happened. The concubines in the harem have surrounded the Ministry of Internal Affairs!"
The empress was startled for a moment, and the smile on her face quickly faded, replaced by a cold expression.
"Xiao Dongzi, do you know your guilt!?"
Yang Dong was slightly startled, then bowed his head.
Why is Ji Ziyue so crazy? Why do the concubines of the harem surround the Ministry of Internal Affairs? Don’t you have any idea in your mind?
It's obviously something you can't do on your own, so why don't you let me know what you're guilty of?
Women are indeed unreasonable!
Yang Dong was complaining crazily in his heart, while looking straight ahead, he said seriously:
"Your Majesty, calm down, I know I was wrong."
"You know you're wrong and you still make mistakes!?"
The empress accused her, but she didn't intend to hold on to him.
"Tell me, how do you think this matter should be solved?"
When Yang Dong heard this, his expression was slightly startled.
No, Your Majesty, I can also participate in this matter?
Aren't you afraid that I will give you a few more cuckolds?
After thinking for a moment, he decided not to wade into this muddy water. So he bowed and said:
"Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance, and you should make your own decision."
"There's nothing I can do about this."
The empress frowned slightly, and her red phoenix eyes lingered on Yang Dong for a while.
See the other person's expression is frank and his eyes are clear. The anger in his heart calmed down a lot in an instant.
In fact, she had already expected this.
People do not suffer from scarcity, but from inequality. Since the queen has gained the favor of the saint, other concubines will naturally desire the favor of the saint.
She didn't care what the concubine thought, but she wanted to see Yang Dong's reaction.
Fortunately, Yang Dong's reaction was barely acceptable.
The empress pondered for a moment, then quietly said:
"As an emperor, I cannot favor the queen alone."
"But I am busy with government affairs and cannot dwell too much on the love between my children."
"There are many concubines in the harem. If I can't hold a bowl of water evenly, there will never be peace in the harem."
Yang Dong looked at his nose and heart, not caring what the empress said.
Although he was favored, he also knew that he could not interfere with the affairs of the harem.
Otherwise, it would be a long life!
Seeing that Yang Dong remained silent, the empress felt even more satisfied.
She pondered for a moment, then suddenly said:
"That's all, in that case, from now on, I will turn over the cards twice every ten days."
"Although the frequency is still not high, as long as two or three brands are turned over at a time, it can be regarded as rain and dew."
"Xiao Dongzi, what do you think?"
Yang Dong was suddenly cueed by the empress, and Yang Dong was stunned for a moment.
He was so distracted just now that he didn't pay attention to the empress's soliloquy.
When the empress saw his attitude, instead of being angry, she actually had a smile on her face.
"Xiao Dongzi, I said that I only turn over the cards twice every ten days, but I can turn over a few more cards at a time."
"In this way, it can be said that the rain and dew are evenly distributed. What do you think?"
Clam?
Yang Dong was numb, his whole body was numb!
He never dreamed that Ji Ziyue could come up with such a plan of sleeping with dragons and phoenixes.
I flipped through two or three brands at once and didn't see it. Your Majesty, you are having a great time!
Seeing that Yang Dong didn't speak, the empress' face darkened.
"Why, do you have any objections to my method?"
"My subordinates dare not!"
Seeing that the empress was angry, Yang Dong admitted his mistake without saying anything.
He has gradually gained experience in dealing with the empress.
As long as she proactively admits her mistakes in time, the empress will not really get angry.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Your subordinates were just astonished after hearing your method."
“Such a strategy that achieves both ends is really wonderful!”
The empress nodded slightly, a joyful look flashing in her eyes.
It feels really good to be praised by a talented person.
Since Yang Dong knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion, he began to worry about his waist.
Fortunately, I have a golden finger, otherwise I would definitely not be able to bear it!
After pondering for a moment, he slowly said:
"Now that Your Majesty has made a decision, from now on I will ask the eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to deliver the sign on time."
"It doesn't have to be so troublesome!"
The empress waved her hand and said casually:
"I have so many government affairs that I don't have time to pay attention to these little things."
"In normal times, just turn over the cards for me. If I want to designate a concubine, I will tell you in advance."
Yang Dong shivered and almost knelt down.
Empress, ah no, Ji Dashan, is this too...
Forget it, she doesn't care herself, what do I care about?
The empress did not pay attention to Yang Dong's reaction and continued:
"Now that this matter has been decided, let's start turning over the cards from today."
"Xiao Dongzi, thank you for your hard work! I will remember your efforts."
