"Let him in."
"yes."
Soon, Simu Qiao, who was sitting in the room, saw Eunuch Zhang, the chief steward of the Imperial Household Department, who came to visit her.
"Your servant Zhang Dequan pays respects to Lady Sima."
As soon as eunuch Zhang came in, he knelt down with a smile on his face and greeted Simuqiao. His behavior was very appropriate.
"Please stand up, Eunuch Zhang." Simuqiao also said politely.
"Miss Sima, I have neglected you for various reasons before and made you suffer. Thinking of this, I feel ashamed. Please punish me, Miss Sima."
"It's okay. I know it's not your fault. Eunuch Zhang doesn't have to put all the blame on you. Get up."
"Yes, thank you Miss Si for your understanding." Then Zhang Dequan got up from the ground.
Before the Chief Steward of the Imperial Household Department was punished by His Majesty, Zhang Dequan was just a small figure around that Chief Steward.
He looks ordinary, but he is very good at speaking and doing things.
In the entire Imperial Household Department, almost all those who are close to the Chief Eunuch of the Imperial Household Department have clean hands and feet.
But Zhang Dequan is an exception.
He is the only one who has not been in cahoots with the Chief of the Imperial Household Department, but can also live in peace with the Chief of the Imperial Household Department without being bullied.
Not only that, he also got along well with other people in the entire Imperial Household Department.
Therefore, after Your Majesty dealt with the Chief of the Imperial Household Department, Zhang Dequan took the position.
When Zhang Dequan received the order from His Majesty to come and pay a visit to Lady Sima, he was planning to send something to Sima Qiao.
He is a man with good sense and emotional intelligence.
Although Concubine Si is in the cold palace, judging from His Majesty's attitude towards her.
It was only a matter of time before Concubine Si came out of the cold palace and gained favor.
So he felt that this was the best time to please Lady Si.
However, before he could set off, His Majesty's oral order arrived.
He immediately brought his servants to select some suitable things.
It can be seen that Concubine Si is extremely beautiful and indeed has the qualities to be a favorite concubine.
And based on his first impression, he felt that Simiren should not be difficult to get along with.
"What is the purpose of Eunuch Zhang's visit this time?"
"My lady, I have brought you some things according to your majesty's instructions. Please take a look first."
"If there is anything wrong, please tell me, Miss Sima, and I will have someone send it to you immediately."
"Thank you for your hard work, Eunuch Zhang. Let me take a look." Simuqiao stood up and looked behind Eunuch Zhang.
There were a total of twelve eunuchs standing behind Eunuch Zhang.
Each eunuch held something in his hands.
The four treasures of the study, the latest silk fabrics, all kinds of exquisite snacks, fruits, the best tea, tea sets, a complete set of jewelry, unique house decorations, screens, new tables, chairs, stools, etc.
"Well, I can see that Eunuch Zhang put a lot of effort into it. I like these things very much."
"Thank you for the compliment, Miss Si."
"You're right, I really need Eunuch Zhang's help." Simuqiao thought for a moment and spoke.
"Miss Si, you are too much of a servant. If you have anything to say, just tell me directly."
"I would like to ask you to find some smart and sensible people, preferably those who know how to farm or raise livestock."
"Get two more people who are good at cooking and can do handicrafts."
"Also, find someone to clean up the cold palace where I live. I'm going to live here permanently."
"Repair what needs to be repaired and clean up what needs to be cleaned up."
"Especially the kitchen and the garden over there, don't forget them." Si Muqiao instructed carefully.
"I obey your command." Eunuch Zhang nodded in response.
"Also, please help me purchase some chickens, ducks, geese, fish, shrimps, etc., alive!"
"I don't want koi fish, I want the kind you can eat!"
"Yes!" Eunuch Zhang was confused, but he still nodded without showing it.
He was a little confused about what Lady Sima was trying to do.
Instead of competing for favor, she wants to open a breeding farm in the cold palace?
If I remember correctly, Lady Si's father is the great General Si, right?
It's really strange that General Si's daughter doesn't like literature or martial arts, but only likes breeding?
What kind of weird hobby is this?
"When the time comes, please make a list of the chickens, ducks, fish and shrimps you purchased, and I will pay for them."
"Excuse me, how many chickens, ducks, fish and shrimps do you plan to purchase, Miss Sima?" asked Eunuch Zhang.
"As for chickens, ducks, and geese, fifty of each, please."
"As for fish and shrimp, the more the better. We'll eventually raise them in the big pond over in the garden anyway."
"...Yes, I obey your command." Eunuch Zhang.
Damn!
He guessed it right.
Simian really wants to engage in breeding!
If he remembered correctly, before this place was used as a cold palace, the pond in the garden would be filled with large tracts of lotus flowers in the summer.
Then add the koi and dragonflies in the pond.
In summer, this place becomes a unique landscape.
Fishes play on lotus leaves, dragonflies skim the water, the setting sun creates ripples on the water, it is a breathtaking sight.
But in the near future, this place will become a pond for raising fish and shrimp.
When Eunuch Zhang thought of this, he felt that Lady Si standing in front of him was a little bit not very smart.
But he won't say these.
He just had to do whatever Lady Sima instructed him to do.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Eunuch Zhang."
"Miss Sima, you are so polite. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."
"I will send someone to deliver the things you want, Madam Sima, as soon as possible," said Eunuch Zhang.
"Well, take care, Eunuch Zhang."
Not long after sending Eunuch Zhang away, the punishment time for the little eunuch who was punished by her to stand also ended.
Seeing his hands begin to tremble and sweat start to appear on his forehead, Tangyuan handed him a bowl of water in a bad mood and muttered.
"No, drink some water."
"Little table, look at yourself, what can you do?"
"Luckily you met my beauty this time. If it was someone else, you would have been dead long ago."
"That's why we say my beauty is kindhearted. Not only did she not punish you severely, she also took extra care to think for you, using this method to teach you to grow your brain."
"In the future, you must be more careful and don't do this kind of thing again."
"Yes, I thank Miss Tangyuan for her advice, and Miss Si for her kindness in sparing my life."
After drinking the water, the young eunuch handed the bowl over and thanked him earnestly.
There was no way out. While he was standing in the corner as punishment, Tangyuan, as the supervisor, stood beside him and asked him questions.
He explained everything that had happened before, and then got scolded by Tangyuan.
But after scolding him, Miss Tangyuan comforted him and explained some truths to him.
In a nutshell, under Tangyuan's brainwashing, the little eunuch has firmly believed that Simuqiao is a good person.
Not only did he not hate Si Muqiao after being punished, he also thought that she was a beautiful and kind-hearted fairy.
She even wanted to serve in the cold palace.
Si Muqiao, who had just walked out and heard Tang Yuan speak, said: "..."
Hey, my glutinous rice balls, this is not the way you are supposed to use them!
This is a derogatory word!
