Chapter 004: Help

It's a dark night, and the stars are shining.

At this time, the palace can already be described as silent, and occasionally a few palaces are still holding lamps and candles, and other places can be summed up in pitch black.

At this time, the Huanyi Bureau was also quiet, and the palace maids who had worked hard all day lay on the bed early, chatting and gossiping in twos and threes, drinking tasteless tea.

Qiaohui, who was wrapped in a thin quilt and only had her head left, moved to the side of Li Ruxuan, who was in a daze, and whispered: "Sister, thanks to you today, otherwise I would still be outside like them, tired and tired." ”

Li Ruxuan looked at the still busy figure outside, drank all the tea in the coarse porcelain cup, and did not react, just listened to the sound of pouring water outside the window, and felt a little regretful. The palace maids were allowed to get up and do their work only after kneeling in the sun for most of the day, but they couldn't even eat dinner until the work was done.

One wrong step, one wrong step.

With today's events, no matter what she does in the future, no matter whether the responsibility lies with her or not, it will leave an insurmountable pain in Cui Zhangshi's heart. It's no wonder that showing favor in front of your boss like any other leader will end up miserable. No one wants to accept a person who has turned his back on the old master, because her loyalty has been greatly discounted.

No matter whether a person has the same heart as his immediate boss, in the eyes of others, he is his boss's person, and there will always be an indelible imprint on his body, a shadow that can never be shaken off.

So, at any time, you can't misposition.

Li Ruxuan sighed indifferently, and suddenly there was a "bang" sound from Cui Zhang's room, judging by the sound, it must have been her throwing something like a teacup in anger. It's no wonder that the clay figures have three points of earthiness, let alone Cui Zhangshi, who has been in the palace for a long time and has suffered such humiliation? Presumably, he once followed the wrong backer, so he was not embarrassed or embarrassed now, and he was bullied.

In this house, everyone is pitiful, doing things that they can't help themselves, facing people who may not want to see them at all.

Thinking of this, Li Ruxuan's eyes became a little sad.

Qiaohui didn't know what she was thinking at this time, she always thought that she was blaming herself for her abruptness and recklessness during the day, so she stopped talking, but she was a little unwilling, so she pulled the family routine without a match, and the content of what she said was nothing more than which little palace maid made a mistake and was punished, and the little eunuch was rewarded and other trivial things.

Li Ruxuan didn't have the heart to discuss the trivial matters in the family, but she just didn't take a salty and indifferent tone, and her eyes never left the porcelain cup in her hand.

Qiaohui also felt bored, and after a while, she turned to the topic: "Sister, how do you know the outcome of today's events?" ”

Finally asked about the serious matter, Li Ruxuan didn't want to be perfunctory, and said lightly: "Actually, I don't know what the ending will be." ”

"How could that sister ......" Qiaohui's face was full of doubts, if she was by mistake, Li Ruxuan's expression and tone were so firm at that time, it didn't look like she was gambling at all.

"I just know that in the palace, if you want to settle down and walk out of this palace safely, you can only save your life if you are honest and have no other thoughts." Li Ruxuan didn't want to talk to her at length, not that she felt that the two of them were not on the same level, so she didn't bother to argue with her, more in terms of Qiaohui's temperament, even if she said it clearly, Qiaohui might not listen to it.

Sure enough, Qiao Hui immediately showed a disapproving look, just "uh", and then burrowed her head into the bed, leaving Li Ruxuan with a high bulging back.

Li Ruxuan didn't think so, just hooked her lips slightly, filled the teacup with new tea, and continued to taste the tea.

Time passed uneventfully, and another few days passed, quietly spent in the days of washing clothes during the day and being in a daze at night.

It's still a regular life, there is no novelty, for most of the little palace maids, the freshness of just entering the palace has passed, and the current mentality is like a riverbed in the dry season, without a trace of anger.

For Li Ruxuan, the biggest gain is that after the run-in of time, her mentality is no longer as irritable as in the first few days. At first, it was because of anger and complaints about the injustice of fate, but after a few days, I also understood that no matter how much she complained, God would not give her another chance to let her cross again. If God gives her another chance in time, she doesn't want to try it again, this time her luck is so bad, if it is more sad to do it again, wouldn't it be more depressing?

Although this kind of thinking is a bit Ah Q, for Li Ruxuan, it calms the restless psychology and can live a little happier, and it is nothing.

"Ru Xuan, can you help me send these clothes to Chunhui Palace? Just now Aunt Cui told me to boil water for her, and I can't leave......" The little palace maid Cuiwei handed a large bag of clothes to Li Ruxuan, and looked at her pleadingly, with some erratic timidity in her eyes.

Li Ruxuan was stunned for a moment, a little surprised. Aunt Cui has always instructed her subordinate Qingguo to do it, how could she ask a little palace maid Cuiwei who just came to do it? I think it's because the Chunhui Palace is deserted, and Shang Meiren is also tight on hand, and she won't reward the palace maids and eunuchs who run errands, so it's just a trip for nothing.

What's more, the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace are reluctant to go to the unfavored concubines to avoid bad luck, so as not to lose their luck.

"Okay, I'll go later, you can leave this here first." Li Ruxuan didn't want to talk to her more, and because she had been squatting there for several days to wash clothes, she also felt a little boring, so it was not a bad thing to take this opportunity to walk around, so she agreed.

Cuiwei was relieved, hurriedly put her things away, and left with a thousand thanks.

However, Qiaohui was a little uneven, spat at Cuiwei's figure, and said angrily: "I know that you are bullying honest people, sister, you are inevitably too good-natured." ”

"It's okay, it's just a walk." Li Ruxuan responded lightly, put down the work in her hand, wiped two handfuls of wet hands on her body at will, and then hugged her clothes and walked in the direction of Chunhui Palace.

Qiaohui sighed helplessly, shook her head, carried the wooden bucket to the well to draw water, and threw the wooden bucket into the well, making a "bang" sound and splashing water.
