Once again, Wang Zhixi needed to be alone with the matter of her headache. After tidying up properly, he left the hall door and let out a soft sigh. Although Wang Zhixi said that she was resting and being alone, she had actually sneaked out. How could Fangruo not know?
No matter how good her act was, Wang Zhixi would never trust her like she did in the past.
Fangruo calculated her future prospects, and when she returned to the palace maid's room, she was somewhat distracted, "Fangruo, someone came to find you just now." The other palace maid who was hiding in her room and did not go to wait on Yue Yang said, "Your fellow townsman called Little Mo came to look for you. When I said that you weren't back yet, she said that she was waiting for you in her usual place."
Fangruo nodded. Dian Mo was from the same hometown as her, yet she wasn't serving in any other palace, and was instead wearing a uniform. She didn't have anything to do with him coming to find her, so the little willow behind her was the real owner.
Whisk Willow was the Great palace maid of the Yi Kun Palace.
Fangruo exited the Chuxiu Palace and went to the bamboo forest behind a secluded pavilion in the Gonghou Garden.
"Is Miss Zhixi still okay to wait on now?" I've been waiting for you to come. " said the willow.
"It's not as easy as it used to be." Fangruo sighed and said, "If she didn't tell me to have a headache, I wouldn't have been able to get out of here. I wouldn't have been able to listen to my sister's orders."
"The Empress misses your good fortune. Although Miss Zhixi was lucky this time and was not kicked out of the palace, her name is still listed in the Empress Dowager Li. If you stay in the palace, you will have a good day without her." said the willow. " So the Empress told me that if you had any requests, I would do my best to satisfy them. "If you can't continue to serve under Miss Zhixi, then the Empress will have you find another place to serve."
"It's fine now, but I can still deal with it. At this moment, I can't act rashly in order to not expose the Empress." Fangruo said, "I will remember the Empress's kindness deep down in my heart. When I really can't do it, I will come and find elder sister."
"How is Miss Zhixi now?" I heard you were sick for a while. " said the willow.
"After being reprimanded by His Majesty in public, even if he is a good person, he has to be ill. Now that he has recovered, he probably has an idea as well. Before you leave the palace, you still have a chance. " Fangruo said, "It's just that because Miss was sick and moved out of the front hall, she is currently staying at the Li Jing Xuan branch hall. She is the only one in the cubicle, I am not very familiar with the news of others."
"The Empress has her own channels to know news from others." "The Empress was astonished that there was still a royal appearance and a royal aura in this Chuxiu Palace, and it was the Empress who did not take it to heart. But now, it seems that she is different from the others?"
"It's not easy to deceive you, Miss Rong." Fangruo said, "Since she came to the palace to meet Xi Tao, she had only to serve her. Xi Tao, this big sister might not know him, but with Number One Under Heaven's personality, if she was to do something that would harm Miss, she would probably refuse to do it even if it meant her death. She's a lot more tenacious than I am. "
"Why does little sister talk about herself like that, so little sister is a person with survival and intelligence. I have never heard of Xi Tao, but it can be seen that for her, she has suffered a lot in the palace, and if it wasn't for the young lady, she would have struggled for her entire life." "Don't worry, the Empress is worried about your well-being. Wait until the Empress ranks high in the future, then she will transfer you to Yi Kun Palace."
"What do you want me to do, sister?" Fangruo said.
"Isn't Miss Zhixi your blood sister? "If Miss Rongzi is truly different from the others, then she should be able to mediate the misunderstanding between Miss Zhixi and His Majesty," said Fuliu. His Majesty was extremely disgusted with the late palace maid's care of each other, especially the way he pleaded for those who were in the wrong.
Wang Rong and her looks were mediocre, her personality and talents were nothing special. What's so special about being able to play Erhu? His Majesty didn't seem to like Erhu at all. Imperial Lower Consort Guo did not have the interest to treat her as her opponent, but towards the beginning, she would put an end to any suspicious situations. Thus, Imperial Lower Consort Guo thought of a plan. Wang Zhixi, that idiot, would only drag her down.
Two birds with one stone.
Fangruo was a little hesitant, because in her opinion, Wang Zhixi and Wang Rong's sisterly relationship was only that, and Wang Rong and her were not like the usual older sister who would only listen to her younger sister's request.
"Just go and tell Miss Zhixi." "She will know what to do. The worst case scenario would be for the sisters to centrifuge. The Empress is also very satisfied. "
"I'll try my best." Fangruo said.
"I know you only like this kind of direct yellow-white thing. Do it well, the Empress will not treat you unfairly."
"Many thanks, Empress." Fangruo said, "Thank you elder sister."
Yu Liu left first. Fangruo wanted to wait a while before coming out, so as to not be seen by others, she thought for a bit, then went to look around the office to take a snack. When the young eunuch saw Fangruo, he smiled and said, "Grandmother is here."
"These snacks will go to the sweet mouth." Fangruo said as she gave the basket to the young eunuch and took out a handkerchief, twisting and turning it.
There was a big eunuch lying on the brick bed. A small eunuch was thumping his legs and a young eunuch was massaging his shoulders. How enjoyable! This eunuch's surname was Chen, and he was the chief eunuch of the Board of Rites. The head of this eunuch was the Board of Rites, and he could be flattered wherever he went. Currently, Feng Bao was in the middle of the day. He had a lot of free time, so he liked to stay in the room.
When the young eunuch saw Fangruo coming in, he laughed and said that his grandma had come. Fangruo said, "The dessert that you brought just now was taken away by Little Zhuo Zi, go out and eat it. There won't be anything good to eat later."
The young eunuch smiled and winked before leaving.
"Chen Dazhi is in his early twenties. Although he is an eunuch and practises kung fu, he is very capable. He is too lazy to throw some peanuts into his mouth." Did grandma bring grandpa some snacks? "
"Do you still need my snacks?" Fangruo sat on the brick bed and leaned against Chen Jiazhi's chest. So it turned out that there were always eunuchs and palace maid s in the palace who saw each other and made a pair of food. There were some palace maid s who hated eating, but it was different for Fangruo. She had always had her own way of thinking, all those years ago, she was the eldest daughter of a poor family, and the reason why she sold herself to the palace was so that the family wouldn't sell any of her younger brothers or sisters.
However, after knowing that the eunuchs lived outside the imperial city, she had made up her mind. If she were to have a meal with the eunuchs, her life in the palace would be much better, and she would be able to send the money back anytime. She went from choice to choice, and she chose Mr. Chen.
After probing each other a few times, they became a pair of food. The first time Fangruo asked him to send some money back, he just said that it was nothing much. I will send some silver over to your house as your betrothal gift.
Fangruo did not care, the silver she wanted to give him was still in his hands, if he wanted to give her more, it would be his problem, but if she wanted to give her more, it would be his problem. But how could that be? After going to Fangruo's house many times, seeing that her family was too preoccupied with her own thoughts and did not dare to work hard, she asked his brother to send him to the private school, and after learning how to write a letter, he brought it back to Fangruo. Since Fangruo could not read, he read it to Fangruo. Fangruo placed his brother's letter on his chest. Chen Kui asked if you want to reply. You said I wrote.
Fangruo was deeply touched, this was the pure exchange type dish at the beginning with a little more tender feelings.
Fangruo pushed the purse into Chen Kui's arms. Chen Kui squeezed her hand. "Which mistress of the harem has she been working for?"
"Imperial Lower Consort Guo." Fangruo said.
"You haven't met a good master worthy of your service even in Chuxiu Palace?" "Although the scattered palace maid s are at ease, they still need to enter the palace in order to have the hope of advancing to the Great palace maid s."
"You think I don't want to, but this time I made a mistake." Fangruo said, "I just saw that Miss Zhixi really didn't seem to know how to act, that's why I accepted the silver from the Imperial Lower Consort Guo to help her. Now that the matter has been settled, probably no one in this batch of Imperial Consort Candidate would dare to ask for me."
"Didn't you say that Miss Zhixi is very beautiful?" Chen Kui said.
"Beauty is useless. You have to be smart." Fangruo said. Go and ask about Rong and Lady for me, and I'll see if I can find fault with her. "
"Then what about the Imperial Lower Consort Guo?" Chen Kui asked.
"I am here to collect money, I will take care of everything. I am not someone from the Imperial Lower Consort Guo." Fangruo said.
"One day, when I'm a eunuch, I'll let you go out of the palace and be a real grandmother. I don't want you to worry about these things anymore. "
"That won't do, what if you get hooked away by a little palace maid that looks like a flower?" Fangruo hooked her arm around his neck, and said, that smile finally had some true meaning.
Fangruo returned to her Chuxiu Palace and she was already sitting there. When she saw Fangruo, she asked indifferently, "Where did you go? I don't even want hot tea. "
"This servant knows her wrongs. This servant will go make some tea for the young lady." Fangruo said with a terrified expression.
After they brought the tea over, Wang Zhixi looked at her and said, "You still haven't told me where you went? It's that old fellow looking for you again? Is there anything worth your hometown looking for you for? " Wang Zhixi's words might as well be ridiculing.
"I'm from the same hometown as you, your servant, only heard from your eldest aunt that the candidate for option three is about to be decided, so you came over to let me know." After choosing the third choice, the rest of the Imperial Consort Candidate s have to be graded as well. She came here to worry for me. "
"Oh, so fast." Wang Zhixi said with a pale face. She no longer had anything to do with Choice 3, but she could still work hard on the initial ranking of Imperial Consort Candidate. Did she say that Eldest Aunt knew of the three candidates? "
"Only the closest maids by Esteemed Empress Dowager's side know of this Choice 3. Your servant's fellow countrymen do not know. " Fangruo said. According to everyone's speculations, it should be the second palace in the front and the first palace in the back. "
"Front Palace Two? Zhou Yuting that tyrannical shrew was definitely one of them, who else could it be? Liu Suifeng? The first in the rear palace is probably my good sister. But Yang Jingru might not even be able to say it, she looks quiet and virtuous, and is the type that the empress dowager would like. "
"It would be a good thing if you could allow Miss He to enter the third selection." Fangruo said softly, "In the future, I can also take care of Miss."
"Hmph, it's a good thing that she doesn't want to add insult to injury, continue taking care of her." Wang Zhixi laughed coldly, "Even though they are blood sisters, they are not the same mother.
"Rong and Miss also want face. We're all sisters, she can't just watch Miss fall." Fangruo said.
"It's better to beg than to beg." Wang Zhixi made a decision in her heart, "No one has as many as themselves."
"Miss, don't be rash." Fangruo said, why had she not even lit the fire yet, when Wang Zhixi seemed to have already made her decision.
"I've already done it once, I failed." Wang Zhixi laughed sinisterly, "I'm not afraid of being impulsive again, how bad can your left and right be?"
