Luoyang Brocade Chapter 342: Responsibility (2)


The next morning.

Just after the fifth watch, Ling Jingshu got up to wash and change clothes.

Bai Yu and Qiao Yun also got up together. After a hurried breakfast, they followed Ling Jing Shu to see Concubine Wei Xian.

Concubine Li Shu was recuperating on the bed, and Concubine Wei Xian was in charge of the Phoenix Seal in the palace alone. All major and minor matters in the palace must be reported to Concubine Wei Xian, and Concubine Wei Xian must make decisions on all trivial matters in the palace. She also had to take good care of the emperor's food, clothing and daily life. It was no lie when Concubine Wei Xian said she was too busy to do anything.

When Ling Jingshu came to pay her respects, Xinyun and others had already arrived.

There were already many chamberlains and female officials outside Lingbo Palace waiting for Concubine Wei Xian to summon them to report the matter. In about half an hour at most, the concubines from all the palaces will come to Lingbo Hall to pay their respects.

While Concubine Wei Xian was bracing herself and thinking about what she would be busy with today, she did not forget to ask Ling Jingshu with concern: "Are you used to living and eating in Lingbo Palace? If there is anything missing in the house, just talk to Ling Jingshu. I said."

The tone of Concubine Wei Xian's words was different from that of Emperor Xu. She has a beautiful and elegant face, a soft and melodious voice, and no condescension at all, which makes people feel comfortable from the bottom of their hearts.

Ling Jingshu felt warm in her heart and responded with a smile: "I'm very used to it, thank you for your concern."

Concubine Wei Xian smiled and said: "You have just arrived, and you don't know how to do your job. First, stay with me with Xinyun, see more, listen more, and don't know how to ask. I am short of manpower, and at most I can only How many days can I allow you to adapt?"

Ling Jingshu responded with a smile.

……

Next, Ling Jingshu followed Xinyun quietly and observed carefully.

Whether you work as an errand in the Jiaofang Palace or as an errand in the Zichen Palace, you are forced to do it. She is careful and doesn't want to make any mistakes. But from the bottom of my heart, I am tired and rejected.

Now, she was grateful for Concubine Wei Xian's helping hand and her generosity and kindness to her. She was thinking about sharing Concubine Wei Xian's worries, but she had the idea of ​​​​doing her job seriously.

Ling Jingshu was already thoughtful and calm, so she calmed down and watched and listened carefully for three days. She did learn a lot of useful things, and she also had a little understanding of Concubine Wei Xian's work habits.

Compared with Queen Xu’s domineering style, Concubine Wei Xian behaves much more gently and tactfully. When it comes to the expenses of each palace, consider carefully. Sometimes I know that the things reported by the **** in charge below are a bit fishy, ​​but I just ignore them and mostly deal with them according to the usual routine.

From this we can also see Concubine Wei Xian's caution and caution.

In the final analysis, she was only in charge of Feng Yin on her behalf, which was somewhat unfair. To put it bluntly, one day the emperor appoints another queen, she, a good concubine, will have to hand over the phoenix seal obediently.

If the method is too sharp and ruthless, everyone will complain behind his back. It's better to have a gentle breeze and drizzle and slowly win over people's hearts.

Facing the concubines, Concubine Wei Xian never put on airs and remained as kind and gentle as ever.

However, since Wang Zhaorong was punished, the concubines have become much more honest, and no one dares to show off their intrigues in front of Concubine Wei Xian. The harem enjoyed a rare period of peace.

After observing for a few days, Ling Jingshu had a good idea of ​​how to do this job, and took the initiative to ask Ying: "Xian Fei, from today on, let me be my servant!"

Concubine Wei Xian nodded with a smile, and did not forget to remind: "If you don't understand something, don't feel embarrassed, just ask me."

Ling Jingshu agreed with a smile.

From that day on, Ling Jingshu took over the key account book of the Lingbo Palace warehouse. Every day when Concubine Wei Xian was handling palace affairs, she had to stay by Concubine Wei Xian's side, ready to be called upon to do things at any time.

Concubine Wei Xian asked Ling Jingshu to serve as an errand in order to have an excuse to ask the emperor for help. He never thought about how much Ling Jingshu would be asked to do. Unexpectedly, Ling Jingshu gave her many surprises and surprises.

For example, Ling Jingshu has beautiful handwriting. Anything that requires writing can be left to Ling Jingshu.

For example, Ling Jingshu has an excellent memory and a meticulous mind. I remember everything I heard clearly. When she was busy, I would give her a few words from time to time, which made her handle things much more smoothly.

For another example, Ling Jingshu was even good at abacus. It comes in handy when calculating accounts.

The pretty face is full of concentration and she is extremely serious. The long white fingers fiddled with the round abacus beads very quickly, making a crisp sound. It's like playing a cheerful piece of music.

……

On this day, after finishing her work, Concubine Wei Xian couldn't help but ask: "Ah Shu, your abacus is very good. Have you learned it since you were a child?"

Ling Jingshu smiled and hummed: "When I was in Dingzhou, I learned abacus with my cousins. I was the best one in the middle school among the sisters. But I never really put it to use. I didn't expect it to be useful now." The queen shares her worries."

Ladies from well-known families have to learn not only piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also the skills of housekeeping and management.

From this point of view, Concubine Wei Xian, who came from a poor family, was far inferior.

Concubine Wei Xian also did not shy away from her poor background, and laughed at herself: "I am good at washing, cooking, and beauties. I only started learning piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting after entering the palace. I don't know anything about using an abacus to read account books." Thanks to the emperor's trust, I dare to leave all the palace affairs to me, and I am not afraid that I will make a mess of the palace affairs."

The words were funny and humorous, and Xinyun beside him couldn't help but purse his lips and chuckle.

Ling Jingshu also laughed: "Your Majesty is extraordinarily beautiful, considerate, gentle, and fair. Everyone in the palace praises her. As for these trivial things, if your Majesty has done them all, the slaves will still have to do them. What."

Concubine Wei Xian smiled when she heard this: "It turns out that I have so many advantages."

While they were chatting and laughing, the palace maid came in and reported: "Your Majesty, the Concubine Xian, Imperial Physician Wei has come to pay her respects."

Is Wei Yan here? !

Ling Jingshu’s heart skipped a beat. ~IndoMTL.com~ It has been more than half a month since she left Zichen Palace.

In the past, she and Wei Yan had the opportunity to meet occasionally in Zichen Palace. After arriving at Lingbo Hall, he worked beside Concubine Wei Xian every day and never stepped out of Lingbo Hall. Wei Yan had to attend to the sick emperor in the Zichen Palace every day, and the two never had a chance to meet...

Concubine Wei Xian smiled and glanced at the lingering Ling Jingshu, and ordered: "Let Dr. Wei come in!"

After a while, Wei Yan walked in.

This is where Concubine Wei Xian handles palace affairs on weekdays. The room is elegantly furnished and quite spacious. In addition to Concubine Wei Xian and Xinyun Ling Jingshu, there were several maids waiting on the side.

Wei Yan's eyes hurriedly passed over Ling Jingshu's face.

Her originally thin face has returned to its former fair and rosy appearance. The corners of his eyes and brows were filled with smiles. (To be continued.)
