Queen Ma was stunned and felt particularly comfortable.
Also, Zhu Bai has the ability to assist Zhu Biao properly.
In fact, she was also a little worried that Liu Bowen and the others were too strong and would control Zhu Biao in the future.
If Zhu Bai was here, he wouldn't be so worried.
At least Zhu Bai was beyond Liu Bowen's control.
But Zhu Bai is not a fuel-efficient lamp.
Could it be that the front door drives away the tiger and the back door attracts the wolf?
She was lost in thought.
No one in the main hall dared to speak out.
Concubine Hu Shun stood silently with her eyes lowered, waiting for Empress Ma to figure it out for herself.
Queen Ma smiled slightly and waved to Concubine Hu Shun.
Concubine Hu Shun stepped forward obediently.
Queen Ma took her hand and said, "How pitiful. You are so honest."
Concubine Hu Shun never said anything nice in front of Queen Ma, flattered her, never formed a clique, did not complain when she was bullied, and never spoke ill of anyone. Come and say hello honestly every day.
She was a high-ranking concubine with a prince beside her, so she just made herself invisible.
If it weren't for Zhu Bai and Queen Ma, they might never have noticed Concubine Hu Shun, let alone get to know her.
Concubine Hu Shun said softly: "I am a stupid person to begin with. With the empress in the harem working day and night and upholding justice, I can stay true to my nature with peace of mind."
Queen Ma's eyes heated up. Isn't she the one who works hard to ensure the safety of the harem?
Among these three thousand beauties, what kind of beautiful woman with deep thoughts is not there?
If she had the slightest bit of cowardice and fatigue, the harem would have been turned upside down.
Empress Ma said seriously: "From now on, you can come to Kunning Palace often and help me teach the princes. I feel very bored by myself."
This was not a polite and perfunctory remark, but she felt that it was really necessary for her to get closer to Concubine Hu Shun.
Concubine Hu Shun is much better than Concubine Li Shu and Concubine Sun.
She reused these two people. Firstly, Lao Zhu doted on them and she needed to show her generosity. Secondly, the abilities of these two people were really outstanding in the palace.
Concubine Hu Shun bowed: "I don't have the talent to teach the prince, so I can just relieve my boredom and chat with my queen."
Queen Ma said a few more words to her before letting her out.
After coming out of Kunning Palace, Concubine Hu Shun noticed that her back was chilly and she was drenched in cold sweat. She held her hand against the tree and felt palpitations and dizziness. It took a while before she recovered.
She knew that she had just walked around the gate of hell and came back.
If she is not careful at all, not only her, but also Zhu Bai will be implicated.
She sighed softly: when Zhu Bai was naughty, she was worried that he would not be favored and worried about his safety.
Now that Zhu Bai was so favored, she was worried about making others jealous.
It's really difficult...
-----
Fugui told Zhu Bai word for word what Queen Ma and Concubine Hu Shun said that night.
After hearing this, Zhu Bai secretly sighed: She is indeed my mother, she did a great job.
I saw Zhang Yu walking around outside.
Zhu Bai raised his eyebrows slightly.
This guy has been like an ant on a hot pot all day, hesitant to speak, what's going on?
Zhang Yu is an honest, hard-working person with good kung fu and good character. It’s just that sometimes I’m so bored that I often don’t speak for a whole day and hold everything in my heart.
Zhu Bai often leaves the palace. When he gets older, he may even have to visit various places.
Zhang Yu, like Fu Gui, is an important confidant related to his safety. It would be a bad idea to have something on his mind that cannot be brought out.
Because maybe someone is pinching Zhang Yu's weak point and forcing Zhang Yu to do something bad to him. Or maybe Zhang Yu had committed something and was afraid that something would happen, so he had to escape in a hurry.
Zhu Bai tilted his head and asked Fugui: "Who is in Commander Zhang's family?"
Fu Gui said: "I listened to him for a long time. It seemed like an old woman and her son. My wife died of illness a few years ago. She never renewed her relationship or took a concubine."
Zhu Bai frowned and said nothing.
The next morning, Zhang Yu disappeared, leaving only the deputy commander.
When I asked the deputy commander, he also said he didn't know what was going on.
Zhu Bai instantly became angry: It seems that these people still don't take me seriously. He removed the person in front of me without even saying hello or even needing to fight me.
If we don't take care of this group of people, how can we ensure our own safety in the future?
With a dark face, Zhu Bai didn't even go to court after breakfast. He went directly to the pro-army captain's house and kicked in the door.
Who is not afraid of death and comes to Lao Zhu's personal guard Yamen early in the morning to play games? !
The people on duty in the pro-military captain's mansion were so excited by the sound of the door being kicked that they all picked up their knives. When they saw it was Zhu Bai, they put the guy down again.
It's okay, it's okay. If this little King of Hell is like this, he can only say it's okay no matter what he does.
The leader on duty came over and timidly raised his hand to Zhu Bai: "Your Highness, what are your orders?"
Zhu Bai asked murderously: "Tell me, who is the brave man who removed Zhang Yu?"
The foreman breathed a sigh of relief: "Your Highness is joking, who of your people dares to withdraw? It was Commander Zhang who resigned."
Zhu Bai looked confused: "Ang?!"
impossible! When he was in the most difficult situation, Zhang Yu always slacked off or looked for another way out.
Now he wants power, power, and money. How stupid is Zhang Yu to resign?
Then Zhu Bai turned around and left without saying a word, as inexplicable as when he came.
Fugui could only silently apologize to the foreman, and then followed Zhu Bai.
In fact, there was a huge quarrel in the court today.
The focus of discussion was Zhu Bai.
But Zhu Bai didn't come, and he didn't even say hello.
Lao Zhu glanced at the empty seat from time to time: This guy definitely did it on purpose! !
The point of everyone's quarrel right now is: It's inappropriate for the emperor to select talents directly from the Guanya Bureau!
Yanguan and the nobles of Huaixi rarely had the same opinion, and they took turns making impassioned speeches or earnestly persuading Lao Zhu to revoke his decree.
The censor said: "If things go on like this, no one knows that there is a prince or an emperor, and everyone in the world only knows that there is King Xiang."
The Minister of Civil Affairs said: "Your Majesty, even if you recommend talents, they must be recommended by high-ranking officials in the court. Besides, these two people are both businessmen. This is a violation of the rules."
The more Lao Zhu listened, the more he felt that the reopening of the imperial examination should not be rushed. Otherwise, there will be more people scolding him in the hall in the future.
Seeing that it was getting late, he said directly: "Heroes don't ask where they come from. We can use them if we want. You are so afraid because you are not knowledgeable enough and you are afraid of being robbed of your job in the future."
When Yan Guan heard this, he became more and more excited: "I am familiar with the classics, how can I be afraid of these two young people who have not even passed the scholar examination?"
Lao Zhu sneered: "That's it. If anyone keeps nagging, let's make his position available. We just feel that the staff is too redundant and we want to lay off people."
Then the hall finally became quiet.
Lao Zhu fluttered his sleeves and walked away. As he walked, he asked Erhu: "Where did that brat go?"
Erhu said: "The King of Xiang kicked in the door of the governor's mansion in the morning, and then left the palace now."
Lao Zhu paused: "Ang? What kind of door is this traitor going to kick down?"
Erhu said: "It seems to be about Mr. Zhang Yuzhang's resignation."
Lao Zhu was also surprised and asked: "Zhang Yu resigned."
Erhu said: "Yes. He said that the mother at home is not in good health and needs someone to take care of her. I don't want to allow it. I haven't had time to report it to the emperor yet."
Lao Zhu understood instantly: Zhu Bai must have thought that someone had removed Zhang Yu without his consent, so he went to find someone to trouble him. Then he found out that it was not the case, and now he left the palace to find Zhang Yu.
