Cultivating Ghosts: There is a Pink Skull at the beginning

Chapter 357 Blessing 2
"How can this be!"

Xi Shi didn't like Wang Zhaoji, and when she saw that she had worked so hard and failed to win the benefits of Chen Taiyi, but Wang Zhaoji, who stayed at home and did nothing, got benefits for nothing, she immediately became angry.

Chen Taiyi didn't want to argue with this girl, "You spend all day with so many gentle and skilled beauties, can't you be like a lady?"

Xi Shi was not convinced, "I am a lady now, everyone praises me as the most beautiful woman in Jiangdong!"

Da Qiao reassured: "Xiao Guang, the king is talking about state affairs here, you and Xiao Qiao go to the side to play chess, and I will be the referee for you."

Xiao Qiao was very sensible, and took the initiative to pull the reluctant Xiao Guang over.

Mrs. Chen couldn't help but raise her mouth immediately, as expected, the big sister is the best!

High season!

It is a kind of enjoyment to have a gentle and sensible beautiful big sister at home~
Chen Taiyi felt that what he did was too right. He brought in a good woman like Da Qiao at home, and everything was taken care of in an orderly manner. He opened his mouth and stretched out his clothes when he had meals, and his life was really comfortable.

Even if there is a naughty child like Xiaoguang, it's okay, just a gentle and quiet big sister gathered at the table, it will look a little dull, and now it's just right.

Kui Wenji was as sensible as Da Qiao, thinking that Chen Taiyi was still annoyed by Xi Shi's wayward behavior, so she took the initiative to change the subject.

"Dahe, apart from the matter of the royal family in the city, do you need to ask the king about other matters?"

Chen Dahe didn't care about Xiaoguang's affairs, the children of the Chen family didn't like that arrogant young lady since they were young.

"After I told my mother, the rest of the things went smoothly, but there are two things that need to be approved by my father."

Chen Taiyi is in a very good mood, because he sees things in a different direction from others in his mind, so when others think he should be angry or unhappy, he is actually in a good mood.

"What's the matter? Tell me, and I'll help you make up your mind."

Chen Dahe breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly said the important things first.

"Father ordered the Huazong disciples to be escorted to Yaowanglin. When I sent the order down, I heard that those people were voluntary. In addition, we don't force them here, so there are very few willing applicants."

Mrs. Chen nodded, "It's okay, I've thought about this too, just let it take its course."

Kui Wenji smiled and said, "They don't know how to cherish the kindness His Majesty gave them, so they don't have to force it."

Chen Dahe also wanted to save trouble, but he was afraid that something might go wrong, "Then what if there is no one in Yao Wang Lin?"

Kui Wenji said quietly: "There are no people from Huazong, there are demon people from Wanmo Ridge, and there are also loyal ministers and beauties from Zezhou in Jiangzhou. Now the talented and beauties who want to do things for us are more than half of the crucian carp in Jingjiang. , why worry that no one will use it?"

When Chen Dahe saw his mother say that, he knew that he was not responsible for this matter.

"Yes!"

After solving one matter, Chen Dahe continued: "There is one more matter that needs to be decided by the Queen Mother and the King Father."

Kui Wenji was curious about what it was, and it seemed that it had something to do with her.

Chen Dahe quickly said: "When I was inspecting the imperial city, someone blocked my way. It was a palace lady who had been hiding in the city before. After asking, I found out that when the army entered the city, many people in the imperial palace escaped."

"There are also some concubines and female officials among them. These people found me and wanted to return to the palace to continue working."

It is true that women are in charge of the affairs of the inner palace. Kui Wenji said coldly: "Let them fend for themselves! Since they have left the palace, they are not people in the palace. They want to come back after going out to be polluted with filth? Delusion !"

As the hostess of the feudal dynasty, Kui Wenji didn't like those who escaped in imminent disaster.

Even in two countries, people in the same position think about many things in the same way.

Seeing that his mother was angry, Chen Dahe quickly said: "Yes! The child knows."

Mrs. Chen didn't want to get involved in such matters, and felt that Kui Wenji's handling was fine.

At this time Zhen Luoer came from behind, "Your Majesty, there are still some concubines and ladies who have been staying here in this palace, how should we deal with these?"

Chen Taiyi asked, "How many people are there?"

Zhen Luoer said to Chen Taiyi: "There are about 50 people, counting the maids and mothers-in-law, there are about 2000 people."

"2000 people? Why are there so many?" Chen Taiyi has lived here for a long time, but Zhen Luo'er is the only royal woman he favors.

Zhen Luoer explained the general situation.

"Usually, about six or seven concubines are enough for those concubines in the cold palace, but if it is a favored woman, there will be more maids and servants around. There are more than a dozen maids and servants, plus workmen, four to fifty. People are not strange."

Chen Taiyi didn't quite understand, but after listening patiently and with some thinking, he probably figured it out.

Usually concubines have some maids around them, and most of these maids are young and beautiful. Miss Kui's family usually has seven or eight maids by her side, and the number of imperial concubines is almost the same here.

These maids are not doing heavy work, so there are some people who specialize in washing clothes and doing heavy work in the yard, and there are shrews like Rong Rong.

Inquiring about news, going out of the palace to handle errands, spying on the wind, picking up and delivering things, cleaning the room, taking care of pets, pruning flowers... all kinds of things need people to do.

Since Chen Taiyi came to the palace, he has been diligent in government affairs, and spends a small amount of time on a few familiar beauties around him. Naturally, he has no time to pay attention to those former concubines.

"How does Your Majesty plan to deal with these women?" Kui Wenji took back the initiative without a trace.

Chen Taiyi didn't understand the petty thoughts between women, and said after hearing it: "These people should all want to leave the palace, it's not appropriate for me to force them to stay in the palace."

Zhen Luoer explained: "In fact, most people want to stay and serve the king. Apart from some women who gave birth to princes and princesses, there are also some who have not given birth, especially those who have just entered the palace in recent years and have not had time to meet the king. woman."

It was only then that Chen Taiyi remembered that in a place like the imperial palace, there must be many old-fashioned women.

For example, not all women in the palace can maintain their appearance in their 50s and 30s when they are in their [-]s. Kui Wenji is a half-practice, and has made indelible contributions to the prosperity of Yue State for many years in power.

Of course the other ordinary beauties don't have this treatment.

Chen Taiyi suddenly remembered something, and asked hesitantly, "Is Jing Zidan's mother still there?"

Zhen Luoer said: "Still in the palace, currently living in Yuyang Palace for cultivation."

Chen Taiyi asked curiously: "How old is she? How old does she look?" He added wittily.

Zhen Luoer explained: "It looks like he is in his 70s, but he is very energetic and has an open-minded temper. He has no intention of hating the king."

Chen Taiyi made a decision, "Send him to reunite with Jing Zidan's princes, Dahe, is Jing Zidan's son okay now?"

Chen Dahe said: "Everything is fine. The eldest son is calm and capable, and he offered to let me live in the palace. I think it is not appropriate for him to continue living there, so I accepted it, but he also personally chose a man in the city who is close to the palace. The house was given to him, and some money was also given to him."

Mrs. Chen nodded, "Then send his grandmother to him for a reunion."

"Yes." Chen Dahe remembered this matter.

Chen Taiyi said again: "Those who have sons and daughters will be sent to their children to support them for the rest of their lives."

Chen Dahe raised his head and said: "But some people have no talents, and they live in houses less than [-] meters away. I'm afraid it's a bit embarrassing."

Chen Taiyi said in a deep voice: "Everyone needs to experience the sufferings of the people. When I was young, I lived alone in the mountains and wilds. I didn't know how much suffering I had to suffer before I made contributions. These people can't always be on top. It's time to experience the lives of ordinary people. gone."

"Those with talents should be promoted, and the main children of Jing Zidan should be given as much favor as possible, but you can't just enjoy the benefits as long as they are the descendants of the Jing family. This world has long since belonged to the Jing family."

Chen Dahe felt very reasonable, "Yes! My son knows how to do it!"

Kui Wenji said softly to Chen Taiyi: "Your Majesty has nothing to do now, why don't we go to the harem and see those poor women, if you like one, it would be a good thing to stay."

Chen Taiyi became agitated, but he restrained himself.

"No, if the children are over ten years old, they will give a sum of money and leave the palace to fend for themselves."

"If they have no children, let them go home by themselves. If they have nowhere to go, ask them if they would like to live permanently in the Fairy Forest."

"If you don't want to, drive them away!"
