Chapter 392 Mei Niang comes to thank

Wang Ping'an sighed and said, "Yes, I am too careless and too honest! I want to help a group of masters Xu, but I am kind but helping me a little. He doesn't want to make any military achievements, nor does he want to go out of seclusion. I feel very sorry for him!"

Li Zhi curled his lips and said, "I originally had no impression of Xu Jingzong, but judging from today's incident, this person has serious moral problems, so he cannot be trusted or reused!"

Wang Ping'an nodded repeatedly and sighed continuously.

After saying something for a while, the two of them went out to play together. Li Zhi's body was not very good before, but recently, due to the constant exercise, his body became stronger and stronger. As a result, he liked to walk around, wander around the city, and appreciate the sufferings of the people!

During the day, he had dinner outside the palace. Wang Ping'an sent Li Zhi back to the East Palace, and he returned to the Inspiration Temple, took a bath and changed clothes, and looked at the spoils of Ouyang's brothers during this period, which were the subordinates he had collected.

After a running competition, Ouyang Li and others selected a group of people from the most capable strong men, about 300 people, and collected more than ten from the ring in Furong Garden. They planned to find some more, gather up to 400, form a group of soldiers, and the military pay was sent from Zuo Wuwei to do business. Of course, the soldiers were going to do it for Wang Ping'an!

The newly recruited soldiers were not all in the temple, only forty or fifty people were here. Wang Ping'an encouraged them warmly and asked them to practice martial arts well, especially racing. This is their strength. To carry forward it, there is no fastest running, only to run faster. After encouraging them, each person rewarded a few golden seeds!

While it was dark, Wang Ping'an quickly returned to the palace and went to Xitai to wait for Concubine Wu.

Before entering the palace, Ding Danruo and Ke Lianwu were afraid that he would be hungry at night, so they made a box of snacks and asked him to bring them to Xitai. Wang Ping'an made a pot of good tea for himself, and waited for others while eating snacks.

After dark, Concubine Wu arrived soon after. She came tonight, but she was not as happy as before, with a little sadness on her face.

Wang Ping'an closed the door and decocted the medicine with her, and asked, "Sister, I'm not happy when I meet you. For some reason, but what is wrong with you?"

Concubine Wu sighed and said, "Your Majesty, you are still young and don't understand the affairs of the palace, but you always hear about it. I have been trying my best to learn to decoct medicine these days, but every time I send the medicine to the Ganlu Palace, General Shi personally took it in, and then asked me to go back and rest, and didn't say much!"

The tone of her speech was full of disappointment. She couldn't figure out why she was so trustworthy, but she could no longer enter the Ganlu Palace to serve. Of course, she would not explicitly say that she had not been favored yet, but the meaning in her tone was very obvious.

Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "You don't want me to go to Shi Zhongchen's place and say a few good things for you, right?" After hearing Concubine Wu's words, he smiled and said, "Master Shi asked his sister to go back and rest early because she was afraid that she would be tired of you!"

Concubine Wu shook her head and said, "It seems that it is not?"

Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "Of course not! You have become an abandoned son long ago. I'm sorry that you haven't thought it through until now. If you want to change Wu Meiniang, you probably understand it long ago. Who can you blame me if you don't invest in politics early? "

Concubine Wu was obviously much thinner than Wu Meiniang. It seemed that she wanted Wang Ping'an to say something good in front of Shi Zhongchen, but she was embarrassed to speak. Wang Ping'an did not dare to speak. He had no interest in palace fighting and had no ability to influence anything, so he could not do anything except make a fortune silently.

The two of them had no topics and remained silent. After the medicine was boiled, Concubine Wu left Xitai and turned to the Ganlu Hall.

Wang Ping'an stayed in the room alone and thought to himself: "I wonder if Wu Meiniang will come tonight." He was looking forward to Wu Meiniang coming again, but he was a little afraid that she would come, and he was in a very conflicted mood.

After Concubine Wu left, about two quarters of an hour later, footsteps came from outside. When Wang Ping'an heard it, he knew it was Wu Meiniang. Her footsteps were a little used to listening to them and could be distinguished.

Sure enough, the footsteps stopped when they reached the door. Wu Meiniang whispered outside the door: "Uncle, have you ever rested?"

Wang Ping'an hurriedly said, "Is it Mei Niang? Come in quickly, why didn't you come last night?"

Wu Meiniang pushed the door and was still holding a charcoal bucket in her hand. She turned around and closed the door, came to the desk, and said, "Uncle, I'm afraid Meiniang won't come to help you in the future."

Wang Ping'an said: "Why is this?"

Wu Meiniang suddenly smiled. She put down the charcoal bucket, sat down, and said, "Uncle, Meiniang has been promoted to be in charge of the affairs. She is in charge of the palace maids in the first palace. She is more majestic than before when she was a talented person."

Wang Ping'an said with a chuckle and said, "Is that true? Which palace do you work in? It's not the Ganlu Palace, right?"

Wu Meiniang smiled and said, "Of course it cannot be the Ganlu Palace, it is in Lixia Palace, a small palace on the east side, and it is only separated from the East Palace by a wall."

"Lixia Palace is very close to the East Palace? What kind of palace is that?" Wang Ping'an did not know the layout of the palace.

Wu Meiniang said, "It's a small palace with only eight palace maids inside. Meiniang is in charge of the business. Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs!" She gestured on the table and said, "between the Shenlong Palace and Yansi Palace, there is a wall eastward, and it is the Lizheng Palace of the East Palace!"

"Lizheng Palace?" Wang Ping'an was stunned. He didn't know about other palaces, but he knew about this. Lizheng Palace was the bedroom of the East Palace, and Li Zhi lived there.

Wu Meiniang nodded and smiled, "Yes, it's Lizheng Palace. There is a big garden in Lixia Palace, which is full of peonies. When the flowers bloom, they are gorgeous and quiet. It is the best place to go in the entire palace."

"You will be in charge of planting peonies in the future?" Wang Ping'an frowned. Lixia Palace and Lizheng Palace. As soon as he heard the name, he knew that these two halls were connected, or that they were once connected.

Wu Meiniang nodded and said, "There are no concubines in Lixia's palace, and there are no small eunuchs. They are all palace maids there, so there is no one on Meiniang, so they are free and easy."

Wang Ping'an said oh and asked, "Have Uncle Shi promised to restore your identity as a talented person?"

"No, I have to wait until the spring is coming tomorrow and when new people enter the palace, they can only be given a title together. I guess General Shi Da wants to avoid attracting other people's attention. After all, Mei Niang is a person who is out of favor and has restored her name for no reason, for fear that someone will gossip." Wu Mei Niang said a little depressedly.

Wang Ping'an scratched his head and said, "Then you are not a concubine, so you can't sleep. You are far away from the Ganlu Palace, so it's even harder to get the emperor's favor!" He said this, but he thought to himself: "But you are not far away from being favored by the prince!"

Wu Meiniang's depressed expression disappeared again. She said happily: "But at least before the name of talent is restored, there is no need to worry, and there is the final say. If the status of talent is really restored next year, then Meiniang will be the lord of the palace. Although Lixia Palace is small, it is also a palace. General Shi Daguan Xu Meiniang!"

Wang Ping'an nodded repeatedly and said with a smile: "That's good, that's good!" But he sighed in his heart. It seems that the fate between her and Li Zhi is really destined by God, and he can't hide it! Who knows what happened next year? But this year she will live next to the prince, only a wall!

He was "happy" for Wu Meiniang for a moment, and said, "When the peony flowers bloom, I wonder if His Royal Highness will go to appreciate the flowers?"

Wu Meiniang said, "It should be possible. Your Highness the Crown Prince just needs to come in from Phoenix Gate and walk along the wall. You don't have to go to Lixia Palace." After a pause, she said, "Mei Niang is a little afraid of the Crown Prince. When I saw him last time, the Crown Prince is so fierce!"

Speaking of the word "very fierce", she stuck out her tongue and said, "Fortunately, she told my uncle that if someone heard Mei Niang say that the prince is so fierce, she would inevitably sue him, and it would be possible to beat me to death!"

Wang Ping'an said: "No, with me here, Uncle Shi will not make things difficult for you." Suddenly, Concubine Wu said that it seemed that Shi Zhongchen punished a group of people. Manager Shi Da's psychology was a little distorted and seemed to like to punish others.

Wu Meiniang suddenly said, "Uncle, it's all thanks to you that Meiniang can stop suffering. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I'm still serving outside the Ganlu Palace and I'm worried all day long. Meiniang will remember my uncle's kindness forever!"

Wang Ping'an laughed and said, "Why do you say the two families? I don't take care of you, let me take care of whom!"

Wu Meiniang was very happy when she heard Wang Ping'an's close words. The two of them talked for a while, and Wu Meiniang told Wang Ping'an about the situation in her family, just like her mother was not comfortable, and so on.

Wang Ping'an immediately expressed his kindness. After he asked Wu Meiniang's family's address, he told Wu Meiniang that he was willing to take Old Lady Yang to Chang'an and let them meet. As for the residence and all expenses after coming to Chang'an, it was all counted on him.

Wu Meiniang was very grateful and felt that there was no better person in the world than Wang Ping'an, who actually took care of her like this little helpless palace maid.

Wang Ping'an said: "Mei Niang, you have been promoted to the great palace maid of Lixia Palace and come to help me again in the future. It will be inappropriate. I will say to Uncle Shi, and you will be fine if you don't let you come in the future. You can concentrate on planting peonies."

Wu Meiniang said, "Mei Niang is very happy to help my uncle. I really hope to see her every day." She said this. She is grateful to Wang Ping'an now and has a little indescribable idea.

After the two of them talked for a while, Wu Meiniang left Xitai and returned to Ganlu Palace. This was the last time she was on duty and would go to Lixia Palace in the future.

No words all night.

Early the next morning, Xu Jingzong came to the Secretariat to complete the procedures and led a team of soldiers to the north to leave the customs. Wang Ping'an personally sent Xu Jingzong out of the city gate.

Before leaving, Wang Ping'an said, "Mr. Xu, don't blame me. I really don't know that things will turn out like this. If I knew, I would rather go than let you go!"

Xu Jingzong said, "The prince was joking. Yesterday, the master lost his composure and said something unpleasant. Don't take it to heart!"

The two of you said one by one, one by one, and I said polite words for a long time. At the end, Xu Jingzong rode on his horse and said to Wang Ping'an: "Mr. Wang and Prince, if things outside the pass are too difficult, you will have to help you then!"

Wang Ping'an shouted: "Don't worry, Lord Xu, as long as I can help, if I, Wang Ping'an, frown, then I am not a man!"
