Luanling Imperial City (4)

After thanking me again, I stood up.

Manager Li said: "You will go to the Rite Division tomorrow to learn the etiquette laws in the palace for a week, and then go to the Catering Division to report." ”

"Yes, thank you, Mr. Li." I bowed to him and took the opportunity to stuff him with some silver taels as I got up, and he smiled contentedly.

He nodded and said: "Oh, it is said that the daughter of the Luo family is stubborn and ignorant, and now it seems that she still knows the etiquette very well, it's okay, if you do well, life in the palace will not be hard." ”

"Yes." I bowed my head and replied, he seemed to be in a good mood, waved his hand, and left with a group of palace maids.

I looked up, looked at the clothes in my hand, and thought, "No one has ever complimented me on my good manners."

This Manager Li has to deal with it well, he is the most talkative person around the emperor, and he is deeply trusted by the emperor, even if there is a small mistake, the emperor will turn a blind eye, the emperor has killed so many people in the palace, but he has not been blamed.

So as long as I please Mr. Li, I naturally won't be too sad, I entered the house with my clothes in my hands, closed the door, and then exhaled and relaxed my body.

Actually, I was almost nervous to death just now, for fear that I would be rude to make a move, but fortunately, it seems that the actions I have been peeking at in the past few days are still presentable.

I put on my clothes, from now on, I am an ordinary high-class palace maid in the palace, what Lancheng, what Luo family, what eldest lady, all have to be put aside.

The clothes of the high-class palace maids will be embroidered with some simple patterns, I tried it, this dress fits unexpectedly well, the waist is tightly tied, I checked the other places, there should be nothing wrong, the next thing is to comb the hair, there is no mirror in the house, which makes it difficult for me.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, I answered, and a familiar voice came from outside the door, it was Bishui, and she said, "Miss Luo, I'll take you to the palace maid's residence." ”

I opened the door, she saw that I was a little shocked when I looked like a cloak, she quickly took my hand into the house, and quickly closed the door, she said in a panic: "The palace is not allowed to distribute at will, hurry up and comb your hair." ”

"Who said that I saw one this morning?" I casually retorted, what kind of man was this morning, he looked extraordinary, how could he be the head of the guard or something.

"Miss Luo, don't talk nonsense, come, give me the hairpin, I'll help you." Bishui stretched out his hand, and I handed her the hairpin, and I sat on the stool, and she stood behind me.

Her movements were gentle and her fingers were a little cold, but she was very careful not to touch my scalp, and I felt that my hair was curled up and then fixed with a wooden hairpin.

"Alright." Bishui said.

"Thank you Bishui, I should have remembered your name correctly, right?" I turned my head and looked at her with a smile, and she shyly lowered her head and nodded.

She suddenly remembered the purpose of her visit, so she said, "Miss Luo, I'll take you there when you're ready." ”

I answered, got up and went to tidy up my clothes, I said, "Don't always call me Miss Luo, call me Qinlin, we will all be palace maids in the future, there is no Miss who is not Miss." ”

"Yes." She replied that when she didn't do anything, she would silently step aside, keep her head down, and not speak, she was waiting for me.

I think this atmosphere is really a bit quiet and depressing, we are also acquaintances, Bishui has a quiet personality, and he is serious and rigorous in his work, most likely because she has been in the palace for a long time, she doesn't speak, so I took the initiative to ask: "Are those rumors true?" ”

"What?" She asked, looking up suspiciously.

I wrapped up my clothes and took them away, and said while wrapping them: "It's about our new emperor, what kind of tongue cut off hands and feet, you have been in the palace for a long time, tell me, are these outside rumors true?" ”

Bishui suddenly stopped talking, I looked at her curiously, her expression was very serious, I thought she was thinking about something, maybe my words, made her think of something, she opened her mouth, but she didn't make a sound.

I won't be reluctant to answer me, after all, in Luanling Palace, the control of gossip is still very strict, but even if it is so strict, aren't the rumors still spreading?

"It's all true." She said suddenly.

This answer was beyond my expectations, I thought that the rumors were spread in the mouth, and they stopped in action, and the new emperor would not be so excessive, they were all true, no wonder they looked cautious and trembling when they did things.

"Okay, I'm packed, let's go?" I turned, she nodded, and went to open the door, and I followed her and left.

She led me into the palace and took me to her new quarters, and when she passed by the door of the reiji, she stopped, but did not speak, and when she saw that I understood, she continued on her way.

We also passed by the medical department and the catering department, there were a lot of people in the catering department, back and forth, it seemed that they were all busy, this is where I will stay in the future, and I don't know why the emperor assigned me to the catering department, maybe he thinks I have a relationship with food?

But I'm a complete culinary idiot, and I wish I could just do it, and if I did, then ...... They're all done.

Bishui led me to a remote place, the houses here look relatively simple, and there are more people, all of them are palace maids in and out, they probably see my face for the first time, so they will look at it curiously, but no one dares to come up and ask.

I followed Bishui all the way in, it seemed that this should be the residence of the inferior palace maid and the superior palace maid, everyone was dressed similarly, and Bishui led me into a small room.

She pushed the door open and let me in, and all I saw was a long table and stools, and four beds, two empty, and the space here was smaller than what I used to live in, so it looked like the room was very cramped.

"Luo Xiao...... Ah, Qin Lin, this is your residence, and there are two other people, Liuqing and Fangyun, they should be busy and will come back late. Bishui told me that she asked me to choose between two empty beds.

After I finished choosing, she went to help me get the quilt and other things, and when she brought it back, she helped me make the bed and put the things in order before she left.

When she left, she explained to me, "The female officers of the Reiji are very strict, so you should pay more attention to your studies tomorrow." ”

"Got it, Xie La Bishui, you are so good to me, I will never forget it." I happily told her.

She smiled, nodded at me, and left.

At this point, even if I officially settled down in the palace, I went to bed early in order to be full of energy when I went to Reiji tomorrow, so I didn't know when Liuqing and Fangyun came back.

Their movements were also very light, they did not wake me, I slept very soundly, and when I woke up in the morning, I saw someone sleeping on the opposite bed.

Every palace maid here, there is no hard work, I naturally don't dare to wake them up, I tiptoe out of bed, get dressed, the palace maid's breakfast is sent by the food department, will be sent to the residence, I got up early, helped the two of them to receive it, and put it on the table.

They were all high-class palace maids who could sleep a little longer, so by the time I left, they hadn't woken up yet.

Today is my first day at Reiji.
