Chapter 207 Simply making a big fuss

"Yeah!" Lu Yunxi nodded slightly. It seemed that she wouldn't be able to compromise too much in the future.

"My lord, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has arrived!"

The Ministry of Internal Affairs is directly under the jurisdiction of the Seventh Department and Three Courts, and all the affairs of the emperor's family such as clothing, food, housing, and transportation are handled by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The minister in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is a second-rank official position. It is not held by eunuchs, but by ministers trusted by the emperor. Even Fu Heng also serves as the minister in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

However, due to custom, the palace also has a special place for distributing fees to the masters in the palace. It is the eunuchs who make the decision here.

After Wei Ning'er got off the carriage, she and Lu Yunxi entered the Ministry of Internal Affairs through the back door.

"Good luck to your concubine, good luck to you, Lord Lu!" He Kui, the newly appointed chief eunuch, immediately greeted him.

However, Wei Ning'er didn't want to talk nonsense with him, and said coldly: "Go to the front hall and ask your minister in charge to come and protect you, anyone can be Hai Wang, Fu Heng, or Gao Bin!"

He Kui was shocked when he heard this, and then laughed and said: "This...I'm sorry, I am a concubine and you are not allowed to see the court officials!"

"Can't you see? Then where will I go to redress this injustice? Does Mr. He want me to go see the Emperor and the Queen and ask them to make the decision?" Wei Ning'er suddenly darkened her face.

"Your Majesty, calm down!" He Kui said in a trembling voice.

"Because the ministers wanted to avoid the female relatives in the palace, Mr. He was ordered to distribute the expenses of each palace in the backyard of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. I dare to ask Mr. He why there is often a shortage of expenses in the Yanxi Palace in recent days. This is the worst.

?" Wei Ning'er asked, her face full of anger.

"Your Majesty, please calm down, it must be the negligence of the servants!" He Kui took office not long ago. He had never heard of a concubine going to the House of Internal Affairs to question him in person. At this time, he was caught off guard and had to shirk away.

"Isn't it the negligence of the servants to beat the maid next to me?" Wei Ning'er looked at He Kui who was already a little restless and said coldly.

"Your Majesty...that was my servant's negligence!" He Kui's words were filled with fear.

"My father-in-law neglected one sentence on the left and another on the right. You must be perfunctory with me." Wei Ning'er didn't look at him and chuckled.

"Mother, I don't dare!" He Kui was startled and was about to say something when he heard Wei Ning'er say again: "Xiao Yizi, put down the things that Eunuch He sent to Yanxi Palace, let's go!"

"Yes, empress!" Xiao Yizi looked at He Kui, sneered, and then ordered the young eunuchs to put all the money spent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Yanxi Palace in front of He Kui.

Seeing this, Lu Yunxi's face showed sadness: "Mother, these slaves want to force us to death!"

Wei Ning'er didn't know that she did this on purpose, but for some reason, she felt infinite desolation in her heart, and said with a trembling voice: "Yes...it's better to go away earlier if we are living like this!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down. It's the servants' negligence. Please calm down, Your Majesty. I'll order someone to change them now. I'll choose the best one for you. The one that will be sent to Yanxi Palace must also be the best!" He Kui said anxiously!

My head was sweating profusely and I said bravely.

When Wei Ning'er saw that it was almost done, she immediately smiled and said: "It's rare that my father-in-law understands justice so well, so I won't be polite!"

When Xiao Yizi saw Wei Ning'er wink at him, he immediately led the servants around him into the warehouse.

After a moment, there was a crisp sound inside. Wei Ning'er frowned slightly, but He Kui suddenly ran in.

"Xiao Yizi, you are in big trouble!" He Kui shouted as he entered.

"What's going on?" Looking at a large piece of broken ceramic on the ground, Wei Ning'er was a little surprised, but she didn't care much.

"I would like to inform you that it is almost the end of the New Year. Officials from all provinces must bring some rare items to the palace as tribute to their masters. This porcelain vase is a masterpiece from the official kiln of the Song Dynasty. It was presented to the emperor by the governor of Liangjiang. Minions

It’s too late to send it to nourish your heart

The palace is broken. If the superiors investigate, big trouble will happen. Madam, what do you think should be done?" He Kui looked at Wei Ning'er with a threatening look in his eyes. He had eaten this in front of her just now.

You should take the opportunity to get some benefits back.

Lu Yunxi was also shocked, and then took a step forward, squatting down to look at the broken porcelain pieces.

"Isn't it the porcelain vase from the official kiln of the Song Dynasty? I have several of them in the palace. Xiao Yizi, bring them all later and pick one for Eunuch He!" Wei Ning'er saw that Xiao Yizi seemed to be frightened, and then she said softly.

.

"Yes, empress!" Xiao Yizi looked at his master, feeling grateful in his heart.

"I'm afraid your Majesty may have misunderstood. This is an unselected tribute. I have no choice but to report it to the Emperor!" He Kui said coldly.

When Wei Ning'er heard this, her eyes darkened, and she was about to get angry, but Lu Yunxi gently pulled her sleeves and whispered a few words in her ear.

When Wei Ning'er heard this, a gleam flashed in her eyes, and then she nodded slightly and said in a cold voice: "If that's the case, then go and report it, my father-in-law. I'm waiting for the minister in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to come, and for the emperor to come!"

He Kui snorted coldly, and then said to the little eunuch beside him: "Hurry and report to Mr. Laibao!"

Wei Ning'er and Lu Yunxi walked to the long shelf, picked up the tributes and played with them carefully.

"This is an important place in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Please move it, my Majesty!" Seeing this, He Kui's expression suddenly changed.

"Bang..." With a crisp sound, the Jade Guanyin in Wei Ning'er's hand fell to the ground.

"Eunuch He, you are so loud, it really scares me. Look, another one is broken!" Wei Ning'er looked at He Kui, her eyes full of blame.

"Your Majesty..." He Kui's face suddenly turned red, but he didn't know what to do. He couldn't let his servants kick this concubine out.

At this moment, Lu Yunxi, who had carefully inspected all the tributes on the shelf, gave Wei Ning'er a hint. Wei Ning'er understood and deliberately took two steps back and bumped into the shelf. Lu Yunxi took the opportunity to push.

, while everyone was stunned, the wooden shelf fell down, and the gold, silver, antiques and jades on it all fell to the ground, and a crisp sound echoed in everyone's ears.

"It's over!" He Kui suddenly collapsed to the ground.

"Your Majesty..., what... should we do?" Bingruo's face was ashen and she pulled Wei Ning'er and asked.

"Mother, we are finished!" Xiao Yizi also cried sadly.

Wei Ning'er didn't care, and said with a smile: "Why don't you two ask your master if I am injured?"

"Has the young master been injured?" Bingruo suddenly became anxious.

Wei Ning'er shook her head: "Xiao Yizi, go to Yangxin Hall immediately and tell Wu Shulai about this!" After Wei Ning'er said that, she whispered a few words in Xiao Yizi's ear.

After hearing this, Xiao Yizi was stunned, and then ran out with a happy face.

"Excellent jade antiques, I am so careless!" Wei Ning'er sighed softly, squatted down, picked up the fragments, and just brushed them lightly with her hand, and the bright red blood dripped along the fragments to the ground.

"Ning'er, what are you doing!" Lu Yunxi was shocked.

"Sister, I have changed my mind!" Wei Ning'er looked at Lu Yunxi with a smile like a flower.
