"You are ......" Yun Rongjue subconsciously opened his mouth.

"Back to the emperor, the slave maid is the palace member of the Penal Division."

"You are from the Spirit Dance Palace, why did you go to the Penal Division?" Yun Rongjue asked.

The palace people in front of him had seen him in the Spirit Dance Palace.

Yuming's eyes flashed with joyful surprise, "The emperor still remembers the slave maid, the slave maid was originally from the Spirit Dance Palace, but it was just ...... I just did something wrong and was punished to the Penal Division. She said.

Yun Rongjue lowered his eyes and frowned.

The little girl is the most gentle and kind, and she treats the palace people around her very well, and when the palace people do something wrong, she only says a few words, and the serious ones are just a few words of reprimand.

Demoting the palace people to the penal division to serve hard labor is not something she will do.

"Who punished you for passing?" Yun Rongjue asked.

Yuming hesitated and slowly spoke, "Yes...... It was Mrs. Zhang, and the slave accidentally bumped into Mrs. Zhang that day, and Mrs. Zhang punished the slave and maid. ”

Zhang Ruo......

It's her style of doing things.

Yun Rongjue looked at Yu Ming and had a guess in his heart. She was waiting beside Jiang Wu in the Spirit Dance Palace, and unintentionally collided with Zhang Ruo, Zhang Ruo punished her like this, probably because of Jiang Wu, and deliberately.

"Since you are working in the Spirit Dance Palace, you must be careful in everything, otherwise, if you cause trouble to your master, you will also have to suffer yourself." Yun Rongjue said in a deep voice.

Yuming nodded again and again, "The slave understands that she will abide by her duties in the future, be careful of errands, and no longer travel to the pool." ”

Yuming sobbed as she spoke, and she raised her hand to wipe the tears from her face.

Yun Rongjue glanced at it and clearly saw one bruise after another on her arm.

"Your hands."

Yu Ming looked down and couldn't help but roll up a little, "These are beaten by the grandmothers, it is the slave maid who does not do things properly, the slave maid will definitely be more careful in the future." She said.

Yun Rongjue looked at the wound on Yu Ming's hand and raised her eyes to see her face with tears in her eyes.

After a moment, he slowly withdrew his gaze and walked straight away.

Yu Ming leaned over, and a glimmer flashed in her lowered eyebrows.

"Now that you've been punished, you'd better go back to the Spirit Dance Hall." Yun Rongjue paused and said in a voice.

Yuming was stunned. It took half a sound to react, and quickly knelt down to thank him.

……

Before that time, Jiang Wu had just woken up from a nap.

"Xiao Nan." She called out to the outside of the hall. After a while, someone walked in.

She was confused and not fully awake, her eyes were closed, and she muttered softly, "Xiao Nan, I want to drink milk tea." ”

"Ma'am."

Jiang Wu opened her eyes when she heard the sound and saw a tea bowl in front of her, she looked up, thinking it was Nanfu, but she saw that it was Yuming.

"Yuming? Why are you here? ”

"Madame, the slave and maid are back to wait for Madame." Yu Ming said softly.

Jiang Wu was surprised, "Yuming, don't you still have nearly half a month of punishment?" Did Mrs. Zhang let you go? She asked.

Yuming shook her head, "It's the emperor." ”

"Your Majesty?"

Jiang Wu's eyes froze.

Yu Ming bowed, "Yes, it's the emperor's ......"

Yu Ming told me about being in the garden earlier.

"Madam, the emperor also forgave the slave and maid for the sake of his wife." Yu Ming said.

Jiang Wu looked at Yu Ming, and her ears unconsciously crossed the words that Sister Yuyan said to her.

"Madam, the slave came back and made tea for you, but I didn't know that the lady wanted to drink milk tea, so the slave and the maid went to change a cup for the lady." After Yu Ming finished speaking, she exited the main hall.

Jiang Wu looked at it, and couldn't help but feel emotional.

Her mood was a little chaotic, and after relieving herself, she picked up the princess's square handkerchief again and continued to embroider.

After a while, Yu Ming brought milk tea.

"Niangniang's embroidery is really good, look at this mandarin duck, how good the embroidery is." Yu Ming said.

Jiang Wu lowered her head and embroidered, and after embroidering one side, she put down the embroidery, and then said: "Yuming, I'll arrange another place for you to be on an errand in two days." ”

Yuming was stunned for a moment, "Madam, you ...... What do you mean by that? Don't you want jade tea? ”

"Yu Ming knows that she is stupid, she is not clever enough, and she made mistakes, which caused trouble for Mrs. , but Mrs., Yu Ming will change, the last time she collided with Mrs. Zhang, Yu Ming will not do it again, please don't beg Mrs. to belittle the slave and go."

Yu Ming knelt down as she spoke.

Jiang Wu hurriedly pulled her up, "Yuming, don't worry, I didn't mean that." ”

"Madam, Yuming will change, please don't let Yuming leave."

Jiang Wu was helpless, and patiently explained: "Yuming, I just changed the place for you to be tea, not to belittle you, the last time Mrs. Zhang's incident was an accident, the reason why Mrs. Zhang was so angry that day and punished you quite heavily, there are many reasons for me." ”

"It's also for your own good to change places, you can rest assured that as long as you do it seriously, it's all the same."

Jiang Wu was relieved and persuaded for a long time, and Yu Ming sobbed and agreed.

After that, Jiang Wu found a simple errand for Yuming.

Three days later. She took the embroidered towel and went to the Hui Yuan.

Huiyuan has always been quiet, but today it seems to be quieter, she walked inside, and as soon as she reached the courtyard, she heard a displeased sound from inside.

It's a toffee.

The concubine lost her temper.

"Concubine." She called out at the door. After a while, the maid walked out and opened the door.

"Madame is here."

"What about the concubine? I just heard the angry voice of the concubine, did something happen? She asked.

The palace maid welcomed Jiang Wu in and said: "The concubine has not been feeling well in the past two days, and the princess has prescribed some medicine to the concubine, but the concubine doesn't like to take medicine, and the slave and maid can't persuade her, but the concubine can't get better without taking medicine, and it's very uncomfortable, and the slave doesn't know what to do." ”

Jiang Wu walked inside and saw the princess lying on the bed, her brows furrowed tightly, and her face was bad.

"Concubine, please concubine Niangniang." Jiang Wu saluted.

The princess Wang's eyes were half-open, and a snort came out of her nose, "You are here, have you done what the mourning family handed over to you?" ”

Jiang Wu listened to the words of the princess, and was not in a hurry to hand over the towel to the princess.

"I heard that the concubine is unwell and refuses to use medicine, the concubine, the body is important." Jiang Wu persuaded him.

The princess snorted coldly, "You also want to persuade me to take that bitter medicine?" Don't eat it if you mourn it! ”

The princess's expression was like that of a child.

"Taifei, the medicine is bitter, if you don't take the medicine, your body will not be able to heal, and you will be very uncomfortable." Jiang Wu persuaded.

"No matter what you say, don't take medicine for the mourning family! If you have nothing else to do, let's go! ”

Jiang Wu looked at the black medicine, his eyes rolled slightly, and then said to the palace maid beside him: "Since the concubine doesn't want to take this medicine, you can take it." ”

The palace maid was stunned, even the princess was stunned, and looked at Jiang Wu suspiciously.

"But madam, the concubine can't get better if she doesn't drink medicine, and this is what the doctor told her to drink." The palace maid said.

Jiang Wu blinked an eye, and when the princess met her gaze, she suddenly glared, looking like I just don't drink, what can you do with me.

"As you can see, the concubine doesn't want to drink it, so take it down." Jiang Wu said.

The palace maid was puzzled, but she couldn't say anything, so she could only take the decoction down.

Jiang Wu sat on the round stool next to the bed, took out the embroidered towel and handed it to the princess, "The towel and concubine have already embroidered it, and the concubine has seen it." ”

The princess took it with a look of disdain.

But when she saw the embroidery on the towel, she was stunned, and her eyes unconsciously fell on the towel, with a look of disbelief.

"Is the concubine still satisfied?" Jiang Wu asked.

The princess looked at it carefully for a long time and slowly turned her head, with surprise in her eyes, "This is really embroidered by you?" ”

Jiang Wu bowed, "Yes." ”

The princess took a closer look and couldn't help but say: "The embroidery of the mourning family was praised by the emperor, and there are few people in the palace who can compare, but the mourning family looks down on you." ”

Jiang Wu saw the admiration in the princess's eyes, "Then the matter that the concubine handed over to the concubine, the concubine can be regarded as done, right?" ”

The princess pursed her lips, as if reluctantly, "Okay, you have some ability." ”

"The mourning family has been sick for the past two days, and the flowers behind it have not been taken care of, so you can water the mourning family in a while." The princess said.

Jiang Wu pursed her lips and sighed softly. Scale Literature

She didn't say anything more, got up and went to the back.

After Jiang Wu left, the princess sat up straight and summoned the palace people.

About a quarter of an hour or so. "She's still watering?"

The palace man bowed, "Yes." ”

"What complaints do you hear?" She asked.

The palace maid shook her head and said truthfully: "Mrs. Jiang is watering those flowers while talking to them without complaining. ”

The princess raised her eyebrows slightly, and her eyes hooked up with appreciation.

"It seems that this girl is a little different, I said that the emperor has never brought a woman to see me, and now he suddenly brought such a one. The emperor should like her a lot. ”

The palace maid bowed, "The slave maid heard that Mrs. Jiang is the emperor's favorite concubine." ”

"The most favorite? How pampered? ”

The palace maid told everything she knew and heard.

The princess got up, walked to the window, pushed the window open a gap, and looked at the little girl who was watering the flowers behind her, but still smiling.

"What you just said, is it true?"

"Although the slave maid didn't see it with his own eyes, but the people in the palace said so, there should be no mistake, if it weren't for the emperor's true love for Mrs. Jiang, there is a queen in the palace, no matter how bold they are, they don't dare to spread it like this."

The princess looked at it and was silent for a moment.

After a while, she sighed softly, "The emperor was very sorry for the mourning family back then...... It's also the ultimate favor. ”

Jiang Wu watered all the flowers and plants behind her, and when she was done, she looked up at the hour.

There is a special kitchenette here in Huiyuan. On weekdays, although there will be people in the imperial dining room to bring meals, but due to the habits of the princess, the small kitchen is still used more, and occasionally the concubine will make some food by herself.

"Mrs. Jiang."

"Are these lunches for the concubine?"

"Yes."

"Is the concubine's medicine still there?"

"Yes, the concubine didn't eat just now, so the slave and maid warmed the medicine jar with a low fire."

Jiang Wu walked to the stove and looked at what was boiling in the pot.

"Eh, ma'am, come on this matter, slaves and maids, there is a lot of smoke here."

"It's okay, I'll come, this medicine from the concubine must be taken."

"Do you have a solution?" The palace maid looked at Jiang Wu and asked.

Jiang Wu smiled and nodded.

In the house, it was time for lunch, but the palace people had not yet delivered the meal.

"What's the matter, why hasn't the mourning family's lunch been delivered yet."

The palace maid walked into the house, "Concubine, I have prepared some other meals in the lunch kitchen today, so it is late, and lunch will be delivered immediately." ”

The princess rolled her eyes, "It's really troublesome." “

After a while, Jiang Wu walked in with something, "Concubine." ”

Seeing that it was Jiang Wu, a slight surprise flashed in the princess's eyes, "Why are you." Her eyes fell on the meal on the table, three dishes, one soup, no different from a normal day.

"Didn't you say you had some other meals prepared? The mourning family looked at the peacetime use, and there was no difference. ”

Jiang Wu served a bowl of soup to the princess, "Let's drink some hot soup before eating." ”

The concubine raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked down at the soup handed by Jiang Wu, "Don't you have an article on this soup?" ”

Jiang Wu chuckled, scooped a spoonful and took a sip, "The concubine has tried it, and the concubine can drink it with confidence." ”

Only then did the princess reach out and take the soup bowl in Jiang Wu's hand.

Jiang Wu watched the princess drink the soup.

"This soup tastes a little different from usual."

"What does the concubine think of the soup?" Jiang Wu asked.

"This soup tastes different from usual, it is refreshing in the mouth, but the aftertaste is a little sweet, what do you put here?" The princess raised her eyes and looked at the palace maid on the side and asked.

"This ......," the palace maid subconsciously glanced at Jiang Wu, "This soup was prepared by Madame." ”

"You?"

Jiang Wu smiled, "When the concubine finishes drinking, the concubine will tell the concubine in detail." ”

The princess snorted, but did not continue to say anything, and drank the soup in one gulp.

After the soup was drunk, the palace maid took the porcelain bowl and filled it with some food.

"Now you can speak."

Jiang Wu slowly made the soup one by one, and finally said: "The concubine forgives the sins, and the concubine in this soup finally fused the medicine taken by the concubine." ”

The princess looked cold, and glared at Jiang Wu with a little annoyance, "You are so bold!" ”

Jiang Wu lowered her eyes slightly, and her face did not tremble, "The concubine is in charge of her own affairs, and she hopes that the concubine will forgive her sins, but if the concubine does not drink this soup willfully, her body will not be able to heal, and it is the concubine herself who suffers and suffers, and the concubine has just drunk this soup, and she doesn't feel bitter and difficult to swallow, isn't it?" She said.

The princess frowned slightly, looked down at the soup bowl that had been emptied by herself, and looked a little awkward on her face.

"If the concubine is really angry, she will punish the concubine, and the concubine has no complaints, but she only hopes that the concubine will put her body first." She said.

The princess was silent for a moment before she slowly spoke, "That's it, you get up." ”

Jiang Wu stood up.

"Sit down."

Jiang Wu's slightly drooping eyelashes lifted slightly, watching the change in the expression of the princess's eyebrows.

"You girl is very bold, the mourning family hates deception the most, and you stepped on the most hated point of the mourning family."

"What the concubine said is that deception, not only the concubine is disgusted, but the concubine also doesn't like it, but sometimes white lies are harmless, and the final result is also in a good direction, in fact, it is not so annoying, are you right?"

The princess snorted coldly, "You girl is not only bold, but also clever enough." ”

The princess picked up the porcelain bowl and dined.

"You did that, too?" She asked.

Jiang Wu bowed his head, "Can you still meet the appetite of the concubine?" ”

"It's okay, it's mainly because the mourners don't pick their mouths." The princess said.

Jiang Wu couldn't help laughing, and his chin echoed, "Yes." ”

"You came to me before, you had something to say to the mourning family, and now you can say it, what is it?"

Jiang Wu is not in a hurry at the moment, "Let's eat first, the concubine can talk about the concubine later." ”

The princess glanced at it, and a look of satisfaction crossed her eyes.

After finishing the meal, Jiang Wu waited for the princess to slow down before slowly opening up and asking the question in her heart.

The princess ate the fruit peeled by the palace maid, and looked at Jiang Wu's eyes with surprise, "The emperor actually asked you to assist a little girl in the sixth palace, but I really trust you." ”

She sighed lightly, "Speaking of the Associate Sixth Palace...... In the past, the mourning family also did such a thing, and at that time, the former emperor always praised the mourning family for doing a good job. ”

"Yes, the emperor said the same thing, the concubine is stupid, and I hope the concubine will give some advice." She said.

"Everyone in this harem envies the queen, envies the people who can take charge of the affairs of the six palaces, and thinks that it is a great right, but they only see the glamorous side, but they don't know that this huge harem, the one who is in charge of the vines, is so easy to manage."

The princess told her a lot of things about the harem, she listened carefully, and she also remembered them one by one.

"The money expenditure of the harem is a very huge amount, and it is not easy for you to save money from the concubine, you are bold and want to start from this aspect." The princess said leisurely.

Jiang Wu: "......"

"The queen's mother's advice, the concubine just did her best."

The princess peeled the fruit for a moment, her eyes stopped, a glimmer flashed in her eyes, and after a moment she chuckled, "It turned out to be the queen's meaning, hey, it seems that no matter what time it is, it is the same." ”

Jiang Wu didn't understand the meaning of Concubine Wang's words. The princess didn't mean to explain more to her.

"It's really not easy for the concubines to save money, the concubines in the harem are not like those palace people, they have status and temperament, and they are pampered on weekdays, what you save them is to let them use less, they are naturally unhappy."

Jiang Wu bowed his head, "So the concubine is at a loss, and I hope the concubine will mention something or two." ”

"It's not difficult to say, but it's not difficult to say," the princess said, "The amount of money and food that the harem concubines have is determined according to their position, which can't be changed," In addition to these, the women in this palace and the women outside the palace are the same, and they love jewelry, rouge and gouache, and women are pleasing to themselves, especially the women in the harem. Su Rili put a lot of effort into dressing up, otherwise how could he win the emperor's love. ”

"And once you think about it, whether it's jewelry or rouge gouache, there are more things you need to use and want to use."

The concubine's words made Jiang Wu a little clearer. "The jewelry of the concubines in each palace, except for the ones brought into the palace from the mother's house when they entered the palace, are all rewarded by the emperor, and this piece cannot be reduced." She said.

The princess stared at Jiang Wu, waiting for her next words.

"That's rouge gouache, but rouge gouache, each palace concubine has its own preferences, and it is something to be used every day, if it is subtracted, I am afraid of ......"

"Naturally, the things to be used every day cannot be reduced, what is the rouge gouache used by the harem concubines for? What kind of rouge gouache can make them happy? DID YOU KNOW? The princess asked.
