Yunchu took a sip of tea.
Her eyes fell on Aunt Er.
Although Grandma Er lowered her head, she could feel that line of sight.
She didn't know what Yun Chu was going to do, but she had her own confidence.
She is the prince's wet nurse and has raised him single-handedly. No matter what, the prince will give her the respect she deserves.
Another thing is that in the eleven years since the prince opened the palace, she has selected the managers of each major courtyard one by one, and they can be regarded as her people.
There is no problem for the princess to take charge of the palace, but she is still too anxious to mention this now.
"Who are the girls in charge of your mama?" Yun Chu said slowly, "You guys stand up."
Four or five maids walked out of the crowd with their heads lowered.
She looked at the eldest one: "How many years have you been following my grandma?"
"To answer the princess's question, it has been more than ten years."
"I've been following you for more than ten years, but you still can't handle big things." Yun Chu smiled and shook his head, "Is it because you are too stupid, or because your grandma doesn't know how to discipline?"
The maid's face froze.
She wanted to say that she was not stupid.
Starting about five or six years ago, Grandma Er left all the things to her, and she only needed to report on major events.
In fact, before the princess entered the palace, Grandma Er had slowly begun to provide for her old age.
But this time, Aunt Er suddenly started to take care of the backyard. She understood that Aunt Er was unwilling to give the princess the power of housekeeping.
She lowered her head and said, "All slaves are stupid."
Yunchu put down the tea cup: "It would be understandable if you were the only one stupid, but among the four or five of you, none of you can handle big things. I wonder if your grandma is too kind and doesn't know how to discipline. There are people under my command.”
Grandma Er was stunned.
She said that her maids were useless because she wanted to tell the princess that only she could do these things. No one in the palace could take her place.
However, the princess defeated her and left her speechless.
She took a deep breath and said: "What the princess said is that the old slave doesn't know how to discipline, so I asked the princess for advice."
The princess is the daughter of the Yun family, the eldest daughter from a wealthy family. She can indeed take care of the general affairs, but the royal palace is different from the neighboring palaces and has to be connected with the imperial palace.
She directed her subordinates to handle matters relating to the connection between Prince Pingxi's Palace and the Imperial Palace's Internal Affairs Office. Those people in the palace only recognized her, and it would not be possible for someone else to do it, unless the princess personally contacted... But in this case, Lost identity.
If it were done by the maid next to the princess, then the Ministry of Internal Affairs would watch the people prepare the dishes, and the cloth, horses, medicinal meals, New Year's gifts, etc. would definitely be inferior to those of other princes' palaces. Then the prince would be blamed Come down, enough for the princess to drink a pot.
"You are an old man in the palace, so I am not qualified to give you advice." Yun Chu paused and said, "However, since you need advice, I will go to the palace to ask for a favor from my mother-in-law, and invite Aunt Guo to come to the palace. Stay for a few days.”
Grandma Er was stunned again.
When she first became the prince's wet nurse, it was Aunt Guo who taught her the rules. Aunt Guo was very strict. She still remembers how scared she was at the beginning.
She didn't understand why the princess asked Concubine Yin's old nanny to come to the palace to help with the household affairs. Wouldn't this make Concubine Yin think that the princess was incapable of taking care of the housework?
Isn't the princess afraid of becoming useless in Concubine Yin's heart?
Yun Chu closed the tea lid: "It's almost time. Everyone, go and do your work. We're all gone."
The next morning, Yun Chu took Chang Sheng into the palace to pay his respects to Concubine Yin. She was now considered a member of the royal family, and it was much easier to enter the palace than before.
The mother and daughter soon arrived at Changqiu Palace. At this moment, Concubine Yin had just come back from the Queen's greetings, with a smile on her face.
"Chang Sheng is here." Concubine Yin bent down and picked up the child, "Chu'er, the Queen just rewarded some palace flowers. See if you like any of them, take them back and wear them to play with."
"Thank you, concubine." Yun Chu followed in, "concubine looks like she is in a good mood."
The smile on Concubine Yin's face became even wider: "The second son made many mistakes and was dismissed from his official position. All his previous business operations in the Ministry of Household Affairs were in vain. Concubine Hui was also ill this morning. Do you think this matter is serious? Is it worth being happy?”
Yun Chu held his forehead.
Although it is worth being happy, there is no need to show happiness on your face.
She changed the topic and said: "I have just entered the palace and I don't know how to take care of many internal affairs. Can you please ask Aunt Guo, who is next to the concubine, to help me for a while?"
Concubine Yin was a little surprised.
In her opinion, Yun Chu is a smart person and a proud lady. Even if she encounters trouble, she will not ask for help from others, just like Yi'er.
Yun Chu lowered his head.
She came to see Concubine Yin mainly because she was the nurse that Concubine Yin had found for Chu Yi.
She and Chu Yi are considered juniors.
If Aunt Guo hadn't been watching over her, she wouldn't have been able to tell if something happened.
Furthermore, there was something she didn't understand about the various aspects of the connection between the palace and the palace, and she needed some advice from Aunt Guo.
"You are a good boy. You pretend to understand everything you don't understand." Concubine Yin said with a smile, "Mother Guo, you can stay with me in the palace for a while."
It is rare for a daughter-in-law to take the initiative to ask her mother-in-law for help, instead of being afraid of her mother-in-law's spying.
She increasingly felt that this daughter-in-law was an open-minded person, sincere to her children, and not on guard against her mother-in-law.
Grandma Guo is now over sixty years old. She is very happy that she can still be used. She immediately nodded and said: "Yes, I will go pack my things now."
Yunchu Fushen said: "Thank you very much, concubine."
Concubine Yin left Yunchu and Chang Sheng to have lunch before letting them out of the palace, accompanied by Aunt Guo.
After arriving at the palace, Yun Chu immediately asked someone to clear out a large courtyard specifically for Aunt Guo to live in.
There were no concubines or concubines in the palace, and there were only empty courtyards. As soon as Aunt Guo settled down, Aunt Er came to say hello.
Aunt Guo sat firmly on the chair, drank half a cup of tea in a leisurely manner, and then said: "It stands to reason that with you in the palace, the princess will never go to Concubine Yin, no matter what. What happened?"
Aunt Er lowered her head and said: "Aunt Guo also knows that my daughter's fate is not good. Her husband died before she got married, and she is a widower. She has been serving in the palace since she was a child, so I thought about letting her I came back to serve the princess. Maybe this move angered the princess, and the princess has...the conscience of heaven and earth. If I had that kind of intention, I would never find someone for Ding Dong. I don’t know why the princess misunderstood..."
Aunt Guo frowned.
On the second day of the wedding, Princess Qinghua brought up the matter of having a concubine. It seemed that Grandma Er had such an intention.
She said softly: "Speaking of which, I haven't seen Ding Dong for many years. Let her come over and let me take a look."
Grandma Er was about to bow her head and retreat to bring her daughter.
Aunt Guo looked at the little maid behind her: "Go and call Ding Dong."
"yes."
The little maid immediately went to invite someone.
Grandma Er clenched her fingers. Originally, she wanted to give Ding Dong a few words, but now she has no chance...
