The Clothes Washing Bureau was located a bit closer to the Empress's home than it was to the palace. The Clothes Washing Bureau was located at the western gate of the DeSheng Palace, but it was heavily guarded, and every day, other than the carriages that brought clothes in and out, the people inside could not go out. They washed clothes day after day until their fingers were worn out. If he did not find a way to kill himself out of anger, perhaps he would be trapped in this place and die of old age. One in ten thousand would be lucky to have His Majesty's amnesty.
The difference between the palace maid and the three Imperial Consort Candidate s was not as great as that of the Imperial Consort Candidate s. The difference in the Imperial Consort Candidate s was still too great, and on the first day, when the s cried and wailed, the old wet nurse was the one who had the most experience in treating people like this. There was no need to mention drawing two boards, closing the little black room, starving a few more times, and then coming out to wash the dirtiest clothes, even the Clothes Washing Bureau s were divided into different grades and grades.
Zhou Yuting did not give up when she reached Clothes Washing Bureau, nor was she willing to wash her clothes. Fortunately, although she was out of money when the decree was passed down, it didn't stop her from sticking a few pieces of inconspicuous hairpins on her head. She also wore a few rings and bracelets on her hands, and also hid a few silver horns on the soles of her shoes.
Once inside the Clothes Washing Bureau, without waiting for the mama to say anything, she had to first present the hairpin above her head. Seeing that she was sensible, the mama naturally wouldn't make things difficult for her. Her current plan was to wait for a few more months. After the limelight had passed, she would then manage the team that would sneak into the palace to wash the clothes. As long as she entered the palace, she would have a chance.
Fangruo helped to unload the dirty clothes she received from the palace, while gossiping with the people around, "Really? This beauty is too unlucky. " Fangruo said exaggeratedly. She knew what kind of performance was capable of making people gossip.
"It is bad luck. He has also offended someone that he should not have offended." "She did want to go to the empress, but the empress hasn't entered the palace yet. Since the Imperial Consort Guo is the head of the palace, and His Majesty is able to spend ten days' time with the Imperial Consort Guo, then that saint pet is something that every new concubine can catch up to." Was Imperial Consort Guo's eyebrows that easy to touch? I say, can our empress enter the palace and take advantage of the Imperial Consort Guo? "
Fangruo felt that this was a show of force from the Imperial Consort Guo to the Empress. Although the Empress had not entered the palace yet, and even if no one else had responded, they could not say much, but after all, the empress was slightly inferior to her. For example, if the mama of the lowest Clothes Washing Bureau said it like this, everyone in the palace had their own considerations.
Fangruo made up her mind that using the excuse that she had abdominal pain, she would ask the guards to go to the medical clinic to see a doctor. The guards were used to it, so they took Fangruo's money to get a pot of tea, two stacks of pastries, and a song.
Fangruo came out from the back door of the medicine hall, asked the direction of the Calm Market, and waited until the Calm Workshop didn't need to ask to know where Wang Qianhu's home was. Fangruo walked to the side and knocked on the door, "I came from the palace, and have urgent matters to discuss with the Empress, please pass them on. I am Fangruo, you can tell Miss Xi Tao, who is by the Empress's side. "
The gatekeeper said when he heard her say the names of the palace maid s the Empress had brought back from the palace. "The young lady will first go to the second door and wait there. I'll go pass on the message."
Although Wang Rong and Fangruo were surprised to hear that Fangruo had come to look for her, they still let her in and allowed her to bring the other palace maid out.
When she saw Xi Tao bringing Fangruo in, she did not go in, but waited at the door instead. Furong Rong did not stay long, she rushed back to her room, the reason she came was towards the Great palace maid of the empress, with Xi Tao in front, although she was trusted by her mother, she was stupid, and was terrified. Of the two girls at home, the Empress had originally said that she wouldn't bring them to the palace, but later on she seemed to have changed her mind. Although the two girls were quick-witted, they knew nothing about the palace, so they had to rely on her.
From what she saw today, if the Empress had some other trusted aide that did not attend to her personally, then she was afraid that when she completed her business, her trusted aide would definitely return to the Great palace maid. It seemed like she wanted to find out who Fangruo was?
Fangruo knelt down, "This servant greets empress."
"Get up and speak." Wang Rong said, "Can Clothes Washing Bureau still go out?"
"You can't come in and out of the Clothes Washing Bureau. When this servant heard about the major affairs of the palace, I wanted to report them to the Empress, so I borrowed the illness to come out." Empress, this servant does not have much time. "
Fangruo tersely explained the matter with Phoenix Fairy Beauty, then lowered her head and waited for Wang Rong and her orders.
"It wasn't easy for me to flip the board, but during my sleep service, I was deposed due to incontinence. My luck is bad, but I don't know if it's a natural disaster or a human disaster." Wang Rong said unhurriedly, "Oh right, did you find out about the location of His Majesty's new concubine's palace that I asked you to ask last time?"
"The Imperial Lower Consort Yang Empress resides in the Stellar Hall, the Imperial Lower Consort Liu Empress resides in the Yonghe Palace, Beauty Luo and Beauty Yin are respectively attached to two palaces. The rest of the beauties and Cui Cai are in the Yi Kun Palace, and some are scattered around the palaces. Fangruo said.
"It seems as though the palace has already been established." Wang Rong sighed, "Women often have battles, and that's what I hate the most." Everyone was taking care of themselves, so why did they have to reach out to someone else's palace? Jing Ru Liu Jing was a well-behaved person, they did not want to offend Imperial Consort Guo, but Imperial Consort Guo did. Is she someone favored by His Majesty who can walk unhindered in the harem? "
Fangruo reported, "Imperial Consort Guo currently has ten days of service to Your Majesty every month. The rest are to arrange for the beautiful women to serve Your Majesty.
"Isn't Imperial Lower Consort Liu loved by His Majesty now?" Wang Rong asked.
"I still don't fully accept your favor." Fangruo said, "The Empress seems to be very relaxed, and is not anxious at all."
"Zhou Yuting has downgraded herself to Clothes Washing Bureau. How has she been recently?" Wang Rong asked.
Fangruo saw that the Empress was only asking some useless questions and did not have the intention to deal with this matter, and replied honestly that Zhou Yuting had not given up, and only said that she did not have enough time to do anything, and that it was time for him to leave.
"Wait a moment." Wang Rong He said that she had written a letter, "Pass this letter to the Imperial Lower Consort Yang Empress for me." She took off a jade bracelet, "Give this to Zhou Yuting, give her the capital to rebuild her power."
She called Xi Tao in and got him to give a big purse to Fangruo, "You working for me didn't make you pay for yourself, take this purse, it should be enough money inside, it's not enough, next time when you come, I'll give it to you."
"Thank you, esteemed Empress." Fangruo bowed and said. When they left the room, Xi Tao caught up to them again, "Take these snacks. You have come and gone in a hurry, the Empress won't be able to keep you here to eat. The Clothes Washing Bureau probably doesn't have anything good to eat either, and there's also this fat paste on your hands.
"It's not worth it for me to use such a good item." Fangruo was unwilling to accept it.
"Take it. It's already been filled with ordinary porcelain bottles. If you don't tell me, others won't know whether it's valuable or ordinary. Washing clothes also hurts your hands. This is the Empress's understanding. " Xi Tao said.
"Then let me thank the Empress." Fangruo said.
"In the future, all you said was to find me. Stop looking for the Empress." Xi Tao instructed.
"I know. Today, I was worried that someone would not let me in, so I came to find the Empress. From now on, you and the gatekeeper have an agreement, so I know what to say." Fangruo said.
Fortunately, her aunt had long been prepared for this, and had discovered it long ago. Although she had been saved, and did not die, she was still injured, and had not gone to find the imperial physician until the next day. As long as the imperial physician did not come, there was no need to explain the matter, as long as the aunt did not kill herself, death did not matter.
When Yang Jingru heard that she had to go find the imperial physician, she had to save the beauty and report back after getting out of the clouds, "Today, I got lucky and ran into Imperial Physician Xu. He pointed to his disciple to treat the beauty in order to prevent her from losing her prestige, so Imperial Physician Xu would definitely cure her as well."
"Imperial Physician Xu? It's time for big sister to know. " Yang Jingru said.
Gui Yan entered. "Empress, there's a letter in the clothes that was delivered today."
"Show me." This Imperial Consort Guo touched the people of the Imperial Lower Consort Liu, the Imperial Lower Consort Liu was not favoured by her, could it be that the people who followed her were doing it for her position, no, Liu Jing was close to her, and everyone knew that the actions of the Imperial Consort Guo was just swatting Wang Rong's face and palm across the air.
Wang Ronghe was not someone who would repay kindness with virtue. He would repay virtue with virtue, and would directly repay grievances. Since you made Little Jiu Jiu do it, I'll give you a slap on the face. I'll let you know that there are some things that shouldn't be overstepped, and there are some people who don't want to move around recklessly. She disdained designing a concubine that was attached to the Imperial Consort Guo. Since your Imperial Consort Guo was the one who instigated this, I will go after your Imperial Consort Guo.
Yang Jingru finished reading the letter, "Go and invite the Imperial Lower Consort Liu."
She already knew that the one behind the incident with Wang Zhixi was the Imperial Consort Guo, so how could the Imperial Consort Guo plant a person who planned all of this? There were even chess pieces from the Imperial Consort Guo s who went to the Clothes Washing Bureau with Fangruo. It was rare for Zhou Yuting to act so boldly and boldly, but what if her actions were instigated by someone from behind the scenes?
How much His Majesty doted on the Imperial Consort Guo was how much the empress dowager loathed the Imperial Consort Guo. Last time, the empress dowager suppressed the matter of not finding the Imperial Consort Guo and even complied with his words. But if there was a chance, the empress dowager would punish him for several crimes and not let him off lightly.
Zhou Yuting receiving Fangruo's bracelet was a complete mystery, but saying that empress was the one to help her make a comeback, caused her heart to palpitate wildly. No matter what Wang Rong meant by that, it was her turn a few times. Zhou Yuting was already more daring than most women, so she asked, "What does the Empress want me to do?"
"The Empress has nothing to ask of you. When the time comes, you will know what to do." Fangruo said.
Wang Rong asked Liu Jing to light the fuse, and Yang Jingru saw that she looked at the letter calmly and said, "How about I go, since His Majesty is angry, I can still bear it."
"Where are you going?" Liu Jing said, "I know what big sister means, the first one is me not getting into favor anyway, so there is nothing to lose. You are different, the only thing we can do is for you to meet His Majesty a few more times, if you offend His Majesty and lose your favor, the others won't even be able to talk to you."
Secondly, everyone in this palace knows that I am a loyal and nosy person. Only then would I be able to hear the cries of the palace maid and ask for justice before leaving the Esteemed Empress Dowager Palace. You have always been cold, if you meddle with this matter, others would find it strange, and would not believe you.
"I'll go tomorrow." Liu Jing tore the letter into pieces and placed them into the incense burner. In the smoke, her face was filled with determination.
