Chapter 20 Death penalty may be excused

Master Ji couldn't help crying, and knelt down directly to beg the two of them. Han Xi sighed, "Master Li, you are also an old man in the palace, you should know very well what will happen if you offend the queen, right?" ”

"I know, but I really didn't deliberately offend the queen today. In the past, all the girls came from Xiu'er, but today when you see the girl, you look very angry, and you think it is the palace maid of the little master!

So two girls, you can help me plead for mercy, I really don't want to die! ”

Master Li cried all the time, if she knew that she would never do that today, it would be useless to regret it now.

"Master Li, I have already told my mother, she said that she will not kill you now, so you don't have to do this now, you can get up first."

Master Li thought for a moment that he had misheard, "Are you telling the truth?" Won't kill me, won't it really kill me? ”

Because this news is so dreamy, she still can't believe it. I always felt that Han Xi was lying to myself, so I was still a little cautious.

Han Xi was a little helpless, Xia Yue couldn't help but smile on the side, "Master Li, Han Xi really told the queen mother, and the queen mother is not ready to hold you responsible, but I need to give you a little punishment." ”

"Miss Han Xi, I really thank you for helping me intercede, otherwise I would definitely die today!" Master Li was a little moved, after all, there were too few people in this palace who could stand up and help him speak, especially to intercede with the queen.

Han Xi shook his head, "You don't have to thank me, you didn't know about it, but Master Li has been in the palace for so many years, so it's better to be more cautious in the future, otherwise I won't be able to do anything in the future." ”

Master Li nodded hurriedly, "I understand, thank you, Miss Han Xi." ”

"But don't be happy too early, the queen said that the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime is inescapable, so you still have to be punished to a certain extent!" Han Xi looked at Master Li and smiled.

"It's okay, as long as I can survive, this is already the best choice, and I can still accept some punishment."

Han Xi sighed, "I actually think that Master Li, you don't have too many mistakes, everyone understands their own difficulties in the palace, so I don't decide to punish you, you will pretend to be lame after a while, and just say that I hit your leg." Don't let others see the flaws, otherwise I won't be able to save you then, and I will be affected myself. ”

Hearing what Han Xi said, Master Li was stunned, she didn't expect Han Xi to choose to do this. Of course, she understood that it was very risky for Han Xi to do so.

"Actually, Miss Han Xi, you don't have to be like this, if someone else finds out, you will be very dangerous, and I can bear the punishment."

Han Xi shook his head very resolutely, "Master Li doesn't have to feel guilty or anything else, I just hope that you can make the best clothes for the queen mother, and you must go to the most beautiful dress in the banquet that day."

Of course, it doesn't matter if the clothes are good-looking, the most important thing is to be suitable, otherwise you have to look at it, and if it is not suitable, it will have no effect, it will only backfire. You also know how much the Queen Mother cares about this kind of thing. ”

Master Li was a little moved, "I understand, don't worry, I will definitely make the queen's clothes shine, and everyone will be amazed when the time comes." ”

Han Xi nodded and left, Xia Yue followed aside, a little incomprehensible, "Han Xi, if you do this, you are very dangerous, what if the queen mother knows?" ”

Han Xi smiled, of course she knew that this was a very dangerous thing, but she didn't have any other way, she couldn't teach others a lesson just because of such a small thing.

The only thing she can do is to make the queen's clothes shine at that time, so that the queen can be happier, so that even if she is discovered, there will be a reason to explain something.

Xia Yue sighed, "Han Xi, you are always too soft-hearted, in fact, you have been good enough for her to let the queen mother not kill her, and now you have deceived the queen mother because of her." ”

"It's okay, I have my way! Do you want to eat something, now this point is the time to eat, I heard that the imperial dining room will bring what can be eaten for the palace maids outside, and every palace maid can go to get it! ”

Xia Yue was a little surprised, "Really? Is it a pastry or something? ”

Han Xi nodded, "That's right, those are all made by the imperial dining room, and the masters will only eat what is freshly baked on the same day, so those will become palace maids." I still heard it from other palace maids, and there is still a quarter of an hour to go, so let's go! ”

Xia Yue nodded a little excitedly, knowing that she hadn't eaten pastries since she came to the palace, so now that she heard that there were pastries to eat, she was naturally very happy.

Han Xi and Xia Yue arrived at just the right time, and there were not many people, because the other palace maids should still be busy at this point, so the two of them would naturally be idle when they came out to do things.

Han Xi This is also the first time to eat this kind of authentic pastry in ancient times, I have to say that it is really delicious, much more delicious than those refined in modern times.

Although it was a day, it didn't spoil the deliciousness of the pastries, but the masters were too picky, so they only ate freshly baked.

"Han Xi, this pastry is too delicious, it's much more delicious than what I eat at home, it's really the master's pastry, and the treatment is really good!" Xia Yue's face was about to cry.

Han Xi smiled, "Indeed, it can only be said that we are too miserable!" It's so delicious after a day, I really want to taste how delicious it will be when it's freshly baked. ”

"It's sinful to speculate on the food of the masters like this!" Suddenly, a voice from behind him startled Han Xi.

When he turned his head, he saw a young man, who looked like he should be about the same age as her, wearing plain clothes, and he couldn't tell whether he was noble or cheap, which made Han Xi a little puzzled.

This young man is very handsome, and he can compare with the emperor, but this young man obviously has a sunny feeling of being a child, and the emperor gives people a calm and ascetic feeling.

Is it a guard? Han Xi, who can appear like this, can only think of this, after all, doesn't it mean that the prince or anything is not allowed to enter and leave the harem at will! Thinking of this, Han Xi was not too afraid.

"It's a very impolite behavior for you to eavesdrop on others like this, don't you know, when a girl speaks, a boy like you has to learn to dodge, don't you understand this reason?" Han Xi gave him a blank look, and he didn't take it seriously.
