MTL - Emperor Zhengde of Ming Dynasty-Chapter 22 The queen mother will be summoned
The next morning.
sunny.
The maids in the clothes washing bureau were busy, and Bai Xue was beating the clothes with her sleeves rolled up.
A burst of hurried footsteps sounded outside the door of the Huanyi Bureau. The female workers in the Huanyi Bureau raised their heads, and the figure of the Daming female official appeared in front of them.
This female official is a unique official position in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and her responsibility is to be responsible for the emperor's nightlife records.
To put it bluntly, it is the person who records some of the emperor's private life next to him, because no one knows who the emperor favors one day, and who is the dragon seed that was born, all the evidence is in the hands of this female official.
In the time of Emperor Hongzhi, this official position was basically useless, and no one did it specially, but in the Zhengde period, this official position returned to its original appearance.
At this time, the little ladies in the Huanyi Bureau were talking a lot.
"In this case, Ouyang Jing from the Hall of Mental Cultivation, who is in charge of the Imperial Record Book, is the emperor's valet..."
"What is she doing here? I haven't seen her for a long time..."
"Did you come to us to urge clothes? The people in the Hall of Mental Cultivation don't care about it?..."
"Didn't Sister Bai Xue meet a young man with bright eyes and white teeth? That young man is said to live in the Hall of Mental Cultivation..."
In an instant, many palace maids looked at Bai Xue with envious eyes in their eyes.
After Ouyang Jing entered the clothes washing bureau, she found the director of the clothes washing bureau. The director of the clothes washing bureau had an identity. Although he was in the harem, he also had a fifth-rank official title.
She glanced at the people around her, and without being polite, she explained her intentions directly: "There is a woman in your clothing department who met the emperor and entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation. I came here to inquire and transcribe it... "
"Has Bai Xue really met the Son of Heaven?"
For a time, everyone in the Huanyi Bureau was very surprised, especially the supervisor. She had never seen the emperor's face once in her life. How could her girl meet the emperor?
It must be known that this Huanyi Bureau was one of the eight major bureaus of the Ming Dynasty, second only to the imperial dining room, and it was among the twenty-four yamen. It was not the **** organization of the harem.
Bai Xue followed the sisters to deliver clothes, and it was normal that she could not find her way back in the huge palace.
"Okay, let's let Bai Xue come here..."
Ouyang Jing sat on the Taishi chair in the main hall of the Huanyi Bureau, and took out the imperial record book and pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
In the backyard, Bai Xue also heard that a female officer had entered the clothes-washing bureau, but she continued to pound her clothes.
Although she was sent to the clothes washing station by the **** before, she thought a lot along the way, and although she didn't get too many things out of the eunuch's mouth, she finally confirmed a fact!
That young man with bright eyes and white teeth is the current Emperor Zhengde!
It's just that she never thought that the emperor was so young, handsome, and about the same age as herself.
In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, she didn't feel the slightest pressure, and getting along with the emperor was like getting along with the little brother from the previous neighbor's house.
However, when she returned to the clothes-washing bureau, the attitudes of her peers and eunuchs around her changed dramatically.
In the beginning, what she did in the clothes washing bureau was the hardest and dirtiest work.
Since being sent back, her life has become easier.
Just when Bai Xue was still thinking about it, the director of the Huanyi Bureau came to her.
"Bai Xue, Shangguan Ouyang called you over..."
The little girls who were working in the clothes-washing bureau suddenly stopped what they were doing, with envy and jealousy in their eyes.
At this time, Ouyang Jing was holding the Qin Lu book and reading it carefully, as if looking for something.
The person in charge brought Bai Xue to Ouyang Jing.
"Are you Snow White?"
"Yes, I am Snow White."
Ouyang Jing raised her head to look at the supervisor in the Huanyi Bureau and said, "I have something to ask Bai Xue, you can take someone out to avoid it first."
Hearing this, the head of the Huanyi Bureau immediately left the place with several other people.
"You are the first woman to be written on the imperial book. After I have written it, I will submit it to the Queen Mother. I hope you can answer truthfully whatever I ask you, do you know?"
"I will answer my aunt's question truthfully."
Ouyang Jing covered her mouth with a smile and said, "Don't call me aunt, I'm just a few years older than you at most, eh, let's just call it sisters in the future."
"How is this possible, Auntie, you are a close minister by the emperor's side, in charge of the imperial record book of the harem, and I, just a little girl in this clothing bureau, how can I tell you..."
Bai Xue answered timidly, and at the same time, the fingers of both hands were crossed together, obviously Ouyang Jing made her very nervous.
"It's okay, now you are the little girl in the clothes washing bureau, that may not always be the case in the future, you are the first palace maid to enter the Hall of Mental Cultivation, maybe the Queen Mother will favor you..."
Bai Xue listened to Ouyang Jing's words and felt like she was flying into the clouds. How could such a good thing land on her head.
You don't have to be too nervous, I'm just asking casually.
"After you entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation, were you blessed by the Son of Heaven?"
"This..."
When Bai Xue heard Ouyang Jing's words, her face turned red from head to neck. She didn't know how to answer for a while. She just blushed, pressed her lower lip, and shook her head. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
"No, no luck..."
"Oh, since there is no luck, that is, there is no intimate physical contact, then does the Son of Heaven give you any reward?"
Bai Xue shook her head again. After entering the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the emperor only asked her a few questions about people's livelihood, at most about folk farming. There was no reward at all.
Seeing that Bai Xue kept shaking her head, Ouyang Jing wrote on the imperial book: "Bai Xue, the maid of the Huanyi Bureau, entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but she did not receive the blessing of the emperor, nor did she receive any reward..."
As for what the Son of Heaven and Bai Xue said, this is not something she has been involved in. Even if people say love in person, it cannot be recorded on it.
Besides, Daming has strict regulations, the words of the emperor can only be written by the language official, if they are written by other people, it is an act of ultra vires.
"That's right, sister Xue'er, I'm going to the Cining Palace now, you go with me..."
"Yes..."
Ouyang Jing stood up suddenly, closed the imperial record book that she had just written, and walked out of the clothes-washing bureau, Bai Xue followed closely behind her.
"I'll take Bai Xue to the Cining Palace."
"Auntie, then Bai Xue will ask you..."
When the director of Huanyi Bureau looked at Bai Xue, his eyes were full of expectation and enthusiasm.
Maybe she is still a little palace maid here at this time. Once she goes out, she may rise to the top. In case, she will become the master of this harem in the future, but it will not be like this.
If someone becomes the master of this harem in the future, maybe their life and death will be in her hands.
Bai Xue followed Ouyang Jing out of the clothes-washing bureau, and went to the Cining Palace to meet the Queen Mother...
