Chapter 267: Sneaking Out of the Palace
He Jingjing immediately called Taohong over, and Taohong didn't know what the second lady had to order.
She only knew that after the second lady entered the palace, she didn't become a concubine, and she was still on an errand with the queen mother, which seemed to be no different from her, the palace maid.
But she knew in her heart that it was absolutely impossible for the second lady to be a palace maid all the time.
Lord Shangshu will definitely arrange for the second miss to become the emperor's concubine as soon as possible, so it will be a matter of time before the second miss becomes the imperial concubine.
Now that the second lady has entered the palace, it is estimated that this matter will get faster and faster.
Taohong hurriedly saluted the second miss: "Second miss, you specially asked the slave to come over, do you have any instructions?" ”
He Jingjing nodded: "Miss Ben asked you to come over, there must be something important to be handed over to you, let me ask you, you have been by He Siya's side for a while now, have you noticed any abnormal behavior from her?" ”
When Taohong heard the second lady ask, she felt aggrieved in her heart.
Since He Siya came back, it was like a different person, she trusted that Xiao Qi very much, but she drove her away.
Moreover, she often whispers to Xiao Qi, and Peach can't hear it.
As soon as she thought about it, Peach felt annoyed in her heart.
"The second lady doesn't know, since the eldest lady came back from outside, it's like a different person, she is really getting stricter and stricter with me now, and she often bullies me.
Her relationship with that Xiao Qi is getting better and better, Second Miss, she doesn't take the He family in her eyes at all, you must become the emperor's concubine as soon as possible, only in this way can you find a way to replace the position of the eldest lady! ”
He Jingjing heard Taohong say this, and nodded, of course she also wanted to be the emperor's concubine.
However, there is still a long way to go, and she is only halfway there.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely have a way to do it!"
Xiao Qi heard He Siya say this, so he nodded reassuringly.
She is also looking forward to the second miss being able to take the position as soon as possible!
"Second Miss, I believe that you are so good, you will definitely surpass the eldest Miss, slave maid waiting for your good news."
He Jingjing sneered and nodded.
"However, now Miss Ben still has one more thing for you to help me do, recently, you have helped me keep an eye on He Siya to see what she has been doing recently."
"Also, if she makes any mistakes, you must tell me in time, Miss Ben won't believe it, Miss Ben can't catch her a little bit wrong!"
She has now been harmed by He Siya to such a point that she has become a palace maid beside the Queen Mother, and she has to serve the Queen Mother every day.
In the morning, she has to get up early like other palace maids, and she can't rest at night, and she has to stand a lot!
Thinking of the grievances he was suffering now, He Jingjing was indignant in his heart.
She put all this account on He Siya's head!
When Peach heard the eldest lady say this, she immediately nodded.
"Okay, don't worry, the slave will definitely help you keep an eye on the eldest lady!"
He Jingjing nodded in satisfaction, took a silver bracelet from his hand, and handed it to Taohong.
"This is your reward."
Peach saw the silver bracelet in her hand, and her heart was happy, she was a maid who saw money.
"Slave, thank you Second Miss for the reward!"
He Jingjing waved her hand impatiently, letting Taohong retreat first, and she would return to the Queen Mother's Kangshou Palace later.
It's really infuriating, and now she still has to serve the Queen Mother, following the Queen Mother all day long, like a little maid.
Even the status is about the same as that of the palace maid!
Although the Queen Mother is very good to her on the surface, in fact, everything that should be done is indispensable.
The more He Jingjing thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, she was the second lady of a scholar's family, she had been pampered since she was a child, where had she been wronged like this.
But in order to have the opportunity to meet the emperor, and in order to get the favor of the Queen Mother, she must also pretend in front of the Queen Mother that I am very happy and happy to serve the Queen Mother!
In the afternoon, after Zhao Qiujin dressed up in disguise, he changed his outfit, and then sneaked out with Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi looked at the strange clothes she and their concubine were wearing, and she felt a little bottomless.
"Niangniang, can we really get out like this?"
Zhao Qiujin played a package ticket, they will definitely be able to get out.
This is the method she came up with after careful consideration.
"You girl is a little confident, don't keep your head down, it looks sneaky, that is, no one suspects you, and when you see your appearance, you will probably think that you have stolen something."
When Xiao Qi heard Niangniang say this, he immediately stood up straight, leaned back, and made a look of holding his head high.
"Ahem, mother, is it better now?"
Zhao Qiujin looked at her serious appearance, couldn't help but snort and laughed.
"You girl, don't be nervous, it's okay, don't worry."
Xiao Qi nodded, he didn't expect that their mother's makeup would really make them successfully leave the palace.
They came to the lively bazaar, and before, when Xiao Qi was in He's house, he would often accompany the eldest lady to come out.
But at that time, the eldest lady was like a maid in the house, and she was often sent by her wife to come out to buy things.
Since entering the palace, they haven't been as relaxed as they were before they got married.
"Miss, you shouldn't remember, you used to bring your slaves and maids over to buy some things, but most of them were things that the second lady and her wife needed.
We didn't have any money in our hands at the time......"
When Zhao Qiujin heard this, she smiled, now she is the emperor's concubine.
Even if the moon silver is not very much, the emperor's reward is enough for her to come out and squander.
"Xiao Qi, don't worry, now that the palace has silver, you can take whatever you want to buy, and the palace will help Xiao Qi pay the bills today!"
When Xiao Qi heard the eldest lady say this, he was overjoyed: "Niangniang, that slave wants to eat Cuizhuxuan's roast duck!" ”
This Cuizhuxuan is in Qi country, and it is the largest restaurant in Qi country.
Not only that, Cuizhuxuan's roast duck is even more famous, and it should belong to Cuizhuxuan's signature dish.
"I brought enough silver today, let's go to Cuizhuxuan and order three roast ducks later, eat slowly, and then let's go!"
When Xiao Qi heard Niangniang say this, he immediately nodded like pounding garlic, with an excited look on his face.
"That's really great, mother, the slave still wants to eat rock sugar gourd!"
Zhao Qiujin nodded, simply walked over directly, and bought the big stick in the hand of selling rock sugar gourds directly, spending five taels of silver, and there were about forty strings of rock sugar gourds on it!
"If you're not afraid of tooth decay, carry it and eat it yourself."
Xiao Qi looked at Niangniang buying so many rock sugar gourds for herself, with a look of crying and laughing.
With so many rock sugar gourds, how could she finish them?
"Niangniang, there are so many, are you buying too much?"
Zhao Qiujin said: "It's okay, if you really can't eat it, let's sell rock sugar gourds in this market at that time, and if you can't sell them all, give them to the little beggar on the side of the road." ”
When Xiao Qi heard Niangniang say this, she also nodded and agreed, their Niangniang is rich now and can be willful.
"Okay, then let's do what Niangniang said."
At the same time, Leng Lingzhe and his party also came to the Qi country.
Moreover, at this moment, they were also shuttling through this lively bazaar, but they had no way to enter the palace of Qi State.
