Chapter 1232: Obstruction
Shui Xiu was stunned for a moment and said, "Like a willow? But the palace maid next to Shu Mulu's side? What is she going to do when she leaves the palace at this time? ”
Bai Gui didn't expect Shui Xiu to care so much, and said a little strangely: "She said that she went out to see the sick old mother, and she also had Shu Mulu's edict, Shui Xiu girl, but what's the problem?" ”
"Naturally, there is a problem." Shui Xiu's face turned cold and said: "Father-in-law Bai is the steward of the worship room, and it stands to reason that he knows many things better than me, so it's not my turn to say anything, but in this matter, I think that Father-in-law Bai did something inappropriate." ”
If another person said this, Bai Gui would definitely lose his temper on the spot, but Shui Xiu was a celebrity beside Concubine Xi, even if he was unhappy in his heart, he didn't dare to show his face, otherwise he didn't know if he could keep the position he had worked so hard to climb.
Thinking like this, Bai Gui smiled and said, "I don't know what is wrong, please make it clear to Miss Shuixiu." ”
"You are not strangers to me and Father-in-law Bai, so I won't go around in circles. Let me ask you, what is the identity of Shu Mulu, and what she writes, how can she be called a 'hand message'? ”
Shui Xiu's words stopped Bai Gui on the spot, and after a long time, he rubbed his hands and squeaked: "This...... This one...... She used to be a nobleman, so she was used to it and never changed it. ”
Shui Xiu said without giving an inch: "Father-in-law Bai also said that it was before, and now she is just a concubine, how can a concubine have the right to write an edict to let the palace people out of the palace, doesn't Father-in-law Bai still understand this rule?" ”
Bai Gui took care of herself, and nodded again and again in response to Shui Xiu's words, "Yes, what Shui Xiu girl said is very true, this matter is indeed my negligence, and when Ruliu comes back, I will immediately tell her that she is not allowed to go out in the future." ”
Shui Xiu glanced at him coldly and said, "I hope that Gonggong Bai can remember the rules of the palace this time and don't make the same mistake again, otherwise I can only go back to my mother truthfully." ”
As soon as he heard this, Bai Gui immediately panicked in his heart, and shook his hand again and again: "Don't, don't, I swear, I will never do it again, and please raise your noble hand, don't alarm Concubine Xi, I am here to thank Miss Shuixiu for her great kindness." ”
"It's the best, and I don't want to make things happen to my master." After saying this, Shui Xiu took the waist card out of the worship room, leaving a cold sweat of Bai Gui, he thought for a while, called a little eunuch, asked him to go to the palace gate to star, as soon as he saw Ruliu, he immediately brought the worship room.
When the sun set, Ruliu came back from outside the palace with a tired face, and as soon as he stepped into the palace gate, he heard someone call him, but it was a little eunuch who was a little familiar, and after thinking about it for a while, he remembered that he was on an errand in the worship room, and said: "But there is something?" ”
"Yes, Father-in-law Bai ordered to come down and say, please go to the worship room to see him as soon as Miss Ruliu enters the palace." The little eunuch said what Bai Gui had confessed, and then led Ruliu to the worship room.
When he got there, Bai Gui was preparing to present the green head card to Yinzhen tonight, and when he saw Ruliu coming in, he hurriedly put down the things in his hand and walked over, and said with relief: "Miss Ruliu, you can be regarded as back." ”
Ruliu Xiu said inexplicably: "What is Father-in-law Bai so nervous about, is it possible that he is afraid that I will not return your waist card?" ”
Bai Gui said while taking the waist card handed by Ruliu: "Naturally, I don't believe Miss Ruliu, but I have something to tell you." ”
In Ruliu's puzzled gaze, he said with some embarrassment: "In the future...... Miss Ruliu still don't leave the palace again. ”
When Ruliu heard this, she almost jumped in, what Shu Mulu confessed, she just had a clue, if she was trapped in the palace now, wouldn't her previous efforts be wasted? Thinking of this, she hurriedly asked, "Father-in-law Bai, what do you mean by this?" ”
"Don't ask what you mean, in short, during this time, Miss Ruliu still serves her mother well and doesn't leave the palace again."
Seeing that Bai Gui said very vaguely, Ruliu's eyes rolled and said, "Father-in-law Bai thinks that the gift given by the lady is too thin?" If that's the case, everything will be easy to say, and I'll send another generous gift later. ”
Shu Mulu knew that his identity was not as good as before, so he was more generous than before, whether it was Su Peisheng or Bai Gui, they all received her money, otherwise how could Bai Gui let her out of the palace so easily.
Bai Gui sighed and said, "I don't think the lady's etiquette is thin, I really have to do it!" ”
Bai Gui's words puzzled Ruliu, and asked, "Father-in-law Bai, what happened?" ”
"Alas, let's tell you the truth, not long after you left the palace today, Shui Xiu next to Concubine Xi came to take the waist card, blamed me for not being good, and said that you also came to take the waist card today, but she grabbed this point and made a big fuss, saying that the lady is no longer a nobleman, and has no right to write an edict, nor has she the right to send the people around her out of the palace, in short, she scolded me to the blood, and then said that if there is a next time, she will tell Concubine Xi about it, and remove me from the position of the steward of the respectful room." Bai Gui said with a bitter face: "Now that Concubine Xi is in charge of the palace, you say that I am a little steward, how dare I disobey, so please also ask Miss Ruliu to talk to the lady together, don't make it difficult for me." If there is really something wrong, or if Miss Liu is worried about her mother outside the palace, you can tell me, and I will send someone to handle it. ”
It's Concubine Xi again! Ruliu scolded hatefully, and reluctantly smiled: "Since that's the case, then I'll go back to my mother." ”
As soon as he heard this, Bai Gui was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Then it's as hard as Miss Liu, in short, as long as I can do it, I will try my best to help." ”
Coming out of the worship room, Ruliu's mood became very heavy, and after returning to Shui Yixuan quickly, he told Shu Mulu about this matter, and then said worriedly: "Master, now the slave and maid are also trapped in the palace, and there is no way to arrange things outside. ”
Shu Mulu put down the half-drunk ginseng soup in his hand and said, "Don't talk about this first, let me ask you, have you ever found a pregnant woman after you left the river today?" ”
"When I returned to my master, the slave and maid went around for a day, and finally found two families, both of which were about the same month as the master, and they had already received the money, and the slave and maid also promised them that if they gave birth to a boy at that time, they would give them another large sum of silver."
Hearing that Ruliu had found someone, Shu Mulu's heart was settled, and he said: "As long as you find someone, as for leaving the palace, ...... it."
Ruliu said eagerly: "Master, you can't get out of the palace, even if those two pregnant women give birth to a boy, the slave and maid can't carry them into the palace, not only is it in vain, but the silver is also spent in vain." ”
"Who said that, forgot what I said to you before?" In Ruliu's puzzled gaze, she continued: "Su Peisheng is in the same boat as us, we have something, and he can't stand by and watch anything he says." ”
