Chapter 1,360
Ling Yu had almost no time to rest. She met with one group of stewards after another. Even with the help of people hired by the Queen Mother and Princess Pingnan, she was still in a hurry.
Hanyu and Lingxuan were beside her to record them, and Mingu helped to classify them.
As for the Yangxin Hall, the Queen Mother set up a mourning hall with great care.
Black gauze was hung in the mourning hall and an incense table was placed. After dawn, all officials and wives began to keep vigil for Emperor Wu'an.
Food and mourning clothes must be prepared for these people.
Fortunately, Ling Yu, with Princess Pingnan's prompting, had already sent someone to notify Geng Xiaohao and Linlangge to find someone to rush to make a batch for herself.
The palace had its own dressmaking supervisor, and the person in charge of the dressmaking supervisor was Han Lingsi, a female official. Ling Yu ordered her to come to see him.
When Han Lingsi didn't arrive, Ling Yu knew that she was from Concubine Shao and was deliberately making things difficult for her.
While Ling Yu sent people to find Mrs. Mei in Linlang Pavilion, he also asked Tao Zi to select a group of strong palace maids to serve as his temporary maid group.
Tao Zi, under Ling Yu's instructions, selected all the palace maids who had been working as low-level servants like Ling Xuan.
From the moment they entered the palace, they were at the lowest level of the palace ladies, doing the dirtiest work and being bullied.
Now Tao Zi not only entrusts them with important tasks, but also promises that as long as they work hard, he will find a good future for them all in the future.
Once the emperor, once the king.
These palace maids are not all fools who only know how to work. How could they not know that Ling Yu is the Crown Princess now and will become the Queen after the conferment ceremony.
They were not favored by others before, but now that Ling Yu has given them a chance, how can they not work hard!
As soon as the temporary maid group was formed, Ling Yu personally received them.
After she gave an inspiring speech, she said directly: "Lingxuan came out of the palace and is also my apprentice. She can completely represent me!"
"Just follow her instructions. As long as you don't cause any trouble, I'll support you!"
"But whoever dares to deliberately cause harm to me will not be spared by this Crown Princess!"
Ling Yu gave his maid team a nice name...Star Guards!
The name apparently refers to the stars in the sky, but in fact Ling Yu means that a single spark can start a prairie fire.
Lingxuan was appointed as the chief officer of the Star Guards, and Tao Zi was appointed as the deputy officer.
The first task the two of them took was to send Ling Yu's first instruction stamped with the phoenix seal to Han Lingsi, so that Han Lingsi could rush out a batch of mourning clothes in three hours, that is, before dawn.
When Lingxuan went to dispatch the order, Han Lingsi took it without saying a word and repeatedly promised to complete the task on time.
Lingxuan didn't waste any time. She took a document and handed it to her and said, "Our Crown Princess has the rules of a Crown Princess. When you receive the document, you sign it and press your fingerprints to accept the mission on your behalf!"
Han Lingsi thought it would be no big deal, so he signed and pledged it.
After Lingxuan left, Han Lingsi threw the mission documents aside, turned around and said to his men: "Go and rest, we'll talk about it at dawn!"
The deputy official was a little uneasy and said softly: "Han Lingsi, it's not good for us to do this. After all, this is the first order sent by the Crown Princess. If we fail to complete the task, we will be punished!"
"What are you afraid of? She's just here, she can't even stand firm, and she still wants to boss us around! If we don't give her a hint of power, she'll think we're easy to boss around!"
Han Lingsi said disapprovingly: "Anyway, if we can't complete the task, she will be the first one to be punished. The worst we can do is to be fined some money!"
"Don't worry, I won't let you lose. I'll give you double the fine!"
The Deputy Secretary immediately knew that this must be Han Lingsi's signal from Concubine Shao.
As long as she didn't lose anything, she didn't care how the concubines in the palace fought.
