Chapter 753 Loyalty
Concubine Li looked at her pale and haggard face, thinking of the grudges and disputes between the two over the years, she couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Even if you really don't know, so what?
As the person in charge of the accounts, you can't even manage the people under your hand.
Let them exploit the loopholes to embezzle the property in the palace.
Isn't this how incompetent you are? "
In a place like the palace, incompetence is far more deadly than greed.
The concubine tuberculosis was so angry that she was short of breath, and her body was shaky.
Liu Xu quickly took out the pill and fed it to the concubine.
"Niangniang, don't worry, this matter has nothing to do with you, you are being deceived because you are too kind."
When Li Fei heard this, she sneered unceremoniously.
"Yeah, Concubine Tuberculosis is the most kind person in the palace!
I heard that Qingsong, who was beside the imperial concubine, was working in the Misty Rain Palace and was tortured by you all day long, almost tossed to death.
Is that also because your concubine is too kind? "
Liu Xu wanted to refute, but because of the identity of the other party, she did not dare to retort, so she could only keep her mouth shut in humiliation.
Concubine Li admired the pitiful appearance of Concubine Tuberculosis for a while, and it was not until it was late that she called Min Jieyu back.
Before leaving, Concubine Li did not forget to remind her.
"These erroneous accounts will be directly handed over to the imperial concubine, and she will decide what to do with you.
I hope Concubine Tuberculosis prepares the emergency medicine in advance, so as not to be angered and sick again, this palace will not be responsible. "
After Concubine Li and Min Jieyu were far away, Concubine Tu's breathing became a little easier.
She panted slightly and said weakly.
"Prepare the pen and ink, Ben Gong is going to write a letter to my father."
She had to make up for the shortfall of nearly a thousand taels out of her own pocket, otherwise she wouldn't be able to explain it.
She still has some savings in her own hands, but she has to spend money everywhere to manage relationships, buy medicines and supplements on weekdays, and those savings must be kept as a spare.
After the letter was sent out, Bai Haocheng handed a sign to the emperor the next day, and he could only go to Yanyu Palace to see his daughter after getting permission.
Bai Haocheng was originally the prince's grandfather. After the prince ascended the throne, he was awarded the bachelor of the Hanlin Pavilion and officially joined the cabinet. Now he is one of the most prestigious civil servants in the court.
He handed the thousand taels of silver notes prepared in advance to his daughter and asked the reason for borrowing the money.
Concubine Tuberculosis knew that once she asked her father for help, her father would definitely ask for the reason.
After Bai Haocheng heard this, he was a little bit angry in addition to being surprised.
"When you were not out of the cabinet, you also studied housekeeping with your mother.
You behaved very well at that time, how did you become like this when you entered the palace?
You can manage so many things with just one account!
One thousand taels of silver is a small thing, but shame is a big thing. You are so incompetent, how can the emperor trust you in the future? "
In the eyes of the emperor, the ability of his father to be able to discipline such an incompetent daughter would also be compromised.
Concubine Tu couldn't answer, she could only lower her head and cover her face sobbing.
Bai Haocheng still felt pity for his daughter. Seeing her crying so pitifully, he couldn't bear to reprimand him again, so he could only slow down his tone and comforted her with kind words.
Wait until the concubine gradually stopped crying.
Bai Haocheng handed a prescription and a talisman into her hand, and whispered.
"This recipe was specially found by your mother, and it is said that it can help conception.
And this talisman paper, which your mother asked for from the Taoist temple, can keep you safe and sound.
These things should have been brought by your mother herself, but she has not been in good health recently, and it is inconvenient to go out, so I brought them in.
You keep it away, don't let others see it. "
Concubine Tuber took these two things with both hands and asked eagerly, "How is your mother? Is she seriously ill?"
Bai Haocheng sighed: "It's still the same old problem of angina pectoris. He has been taking medicine, sometimes good and sometimes bad."
Concubine Tuberculosis: "It's not convenient for me to leave the palace. Later, I'll have someone take a sign to the imperial hospital, and ask them to call an imperial physician to go back with you, so that the imperial physician can show her mother."
Bai Haocheng had this plan from the beginning. Hearing that, he nodded and agreed.
After sending Bai Haocheng away, Concubine Tu looked at the two things in her hand and smiled bitterly.
She understood what her parents meant. They wanted her to conceive an imperial heir as soon as possible, so that her status would be more stable.
But is the imperial heir something she can conceive if she wants to?
This is a matter of two people, it's useless for her to work hard alone!
Thinking of the indifferent and ruthless face of the emperor, Concubine Tuberculosis only felt miserable in her heart.
But this misery is still unspeakable, she can only hold it in her stomach and let it ferment and rot and erode her soul.
...
Concubine Tu asked Liu Xu to send the thousand taels of silver notes to Yunxiu Palace and hand them over to the imperial concubine.
Xiao Xixi put the bank note aside and asked.
"How is Concubine Tuberculosis recently? Is your health better?"
Liu Xu was very disdainful of this princess from Nanyue in her heart, but she had to show a respectful attitude on her face.
"Thanks to the concubine, the concubine is already much better."
Xiao Xixi: "That's good. After all, Concubine Tuberculosis is an old man who has followed the emperor for many years. There is no credit or hard work. This palace hopes that she will be well and no more troubles will happen. Do you understand?"
Liu Xu bowed her head and replied, "This servant understands that this servant will tell the concubine concubine the concubine the concubine without a word."
Xiao Xixi pointed at the bank note on the table next to her, and said slowly.
"Although the deficit in the accounts has been made up, the rules are the rules. If the concubine is ineffective, she has to be punished. For the sake of her good attitude in admitting her mistakes, this Gong will only punish her for two months. Another month of ban."
Liu Xu didn't dare to disapprove, and bowed her head and knelt down.
"The slave maid thanked the concubine and the concubine for the concubine concubine."
Although the imperial concubine is also a concubine, but the imperial concubine now holds the phoenix seal on her behalf, plus the concubine tuberculosis made mistakes first, this time the punishment for the concubine tuberculosis can only be recognized.
The next day, when Min Jieyu came to Yunxiu Palace to greet her, Xiao Xixi handed her the one thousand taels of silver bill by the way.
"This is the money sent by the concubine tuberculosis. You take it and fill up the holes in the account. As for the guys who embezzle the property in the palace without authorization, you and Concubine Li will take care of it."
Min Jieyu carefully collected the banknotes and greeted them: "Here."
Xiao Xixi yawned: "Bengong is sleepy, you should step back."
Min Jieyu got up and retire.
After she left, Xiao Xixi stood up and stretched a lot.
Baoqin said while helping her smooth the folds of her dress.
"This Min Jieyu seems to be loyal."
Xiao Xixi smiled: "Maybe."
What about the faithful and unfaithful?
Everyone is a concubine, and they are all women of the emperor, who is more noble than the other?
But it all fits.
Xiao Xixi: "If Min Jieyu comes again in the future, you will receive her. Unless it is necessary, don't bother me."
Although Baoqin didn't understand why she always had a light attitude towards Min Jieyu, she still answered honestly.
"Here."
