"Thank you, Miss, just how dare you work on the people around Miss, it's better to send Miss back by the slave, and take charcoal by the way." When the palace maid in Tsing Yi heard this, she showed a hint of joy, and she immediately became much more respectful to Su Ruhui.

Su Ruhui subconsciously glanced at the inner hall and said, "If my aunt goes with me to get charcoal, does it matter if Mrs. is here?" ”

"It doesn't matter, once Madame starts playing and singing, she won't stop for half an hour." The palace maid in Tsing Yi said, "Miss, please wait for a while, and wait for the slave maid to fetch a lamp." ”

Su Ruhui nodded and said, "Auntie, just go." ”

The palace maid in Tsing Yi turned around and disappeared into the corridor, and after a while, a palace lamp came out.

The two returned to the Chunsheng Hall the same way, pushed open the door of the hidden palace, Su Ruhui stomped her feet, stomped the snow off her boots, and said to the palace maid in Tsing Yi: "Auntie, wait a minute, I'll ask someone to fetch charcoal for you." ”

"Oh, good!" The palace maid in Tsing Yi originally saw Su Ruhui's gorgeous clothes, although she claimed to be moved to this palace by Changtai, but the situation should be not bad, but she didn't expect the Chunsheng Palace to look at the darkness from afar, and when she arrived in the hall, it was actually a black light, if it wasn't for Su Ruhui saying to find someone to get charcoal, she thought that Su Ruhui was sent here alone.

The palace maid in Tsing Yi couldn't figure out what Su Ruhui's situation was in the palace, and she couldn't help but wonder.

Su Ruhui saw the hesitation on her face, and did not explain, and entered the warm pavilion next to the inner hall to wake up Xiuwan, who was sleeping soundly. Xiuwan has been sleepy in the past few days, and Su Ruhui has nothing to ask her to get up at night, so she slept very deeply, and she was pushed twice before she woke up, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Su Ruhui immediately turned over and sat up, and said in surprise: "Miss? ”

When she looked at it again, Su Ruhui was actually wearing a neat coat, and there was a cold air on the tip of the coat, as if she had come back from outside, and Xiuwan was suddenly inexplicable.

"You put on some clothes and get some charcoal pots for the aunt of Shuyue Palace." Su Ruhua said.

Xiuwan put on her coat as she said, rubbed her eyes and went out of the hall, and was stunned when she saw the palace maid in Tsing Yi, and the palace maid in Tsing Yi saw Su Ruhui go in for a long time, and then called out a young palace maid, and couldn't help but feel half cold.

"This aunt, please come with the slave." Xiuwan was stunned for a moment, stepped forward and saluted, and motioned to the palace maid in Tsing Yi to go back with her to get charcoal.

"It's cold charcoal!" The palace maid in Tsing Yi followed her to the place where the charcoal was placed, only glanced at it, and said in surprise.

"Auntie recognizes this charcoal?" Xiuwan was a little surprised, although she has been in the palace for almost ten years, she has always been doing some rough work in the Queen Mother's palace, and the only one she follows is Su Ruhui, who is still a half-guest, so she knows a lot about many precious things in the palace.

For example, this charcoal was sent by the second prince willingly, burning without smoke, but emitting a faint cold fragrance, like a cold plum on a snowy night, Xiuwan only knew that it was a good thing, but she didn't know that there was a name called cold incense charcoal.

As for Su Ruhui, she has always been pragmatic, she can even treat a little girl's favorite rabbit as a pot of vegetables, and for these luxurious things, she has always only enjoyed them, not to pursue them, and she will not tell Xiuwan about the preciousness of this charcoal.

"This is the fine charcoal of the new plum blossom secret tune, which has never been enjoyed only by the four concubines of the first grade or above, when my wife was gracious, His Majesty had authorized the Shang Sleep Bureau to supply the lady." The palace maid in Tsing Yi turned her gaze on the charcoal a few times and muttered.

She seemed to think of the winter of Qiongtong Palace before Mrs. Yinghua fell out of favor, the cold fragrance was slow, the snow was flying outside the palace, and the palace was warm like spring. It's just that the emperor's grace is immeasurable, who would have thought that Mrs. Yinghua, who was favored by Emperor Changtai like a jewel at that time, has become a silhouette as pale as white water in the palace in a blink of an eye.

If it weren't for the singing voices in Qiongtong Palace flying out from time to time, I'm afraid that even the old palace people passing by would have forgotten Xuanhe in the sixteenth to eighteenth years of Changtai.

"Huh?" Xiuwan's face changed suddenly, "That young lady used this charcoal, isn't it overstepping!" ”

"What's the matter, who's going to come and see if we live here anyway?" Su Ruhui happened to follow up and said to Xiuwan, "Even if you come to see, let's say that we don't know if this charcoal is cold incense charcoal, you haven't known each other for so long since you entered the palace, it's not the fourth concubine, the queen, and the queen mother's close attendants, who knows?" ”

She pointed to the charcoal on the ground and said, "Auntie, just take it." ”

"Miss." Xiuwan didn't want to make a sound, but when she heard Su Ruhui being so generous, she couldn't help it.

"Thank you Miss for your generosity, it's just that there are only three people in Shuyue Palace, including Mrs., and I don't need much." The palace maid in Tsing Yi observed the words and looks, and hurriedly said, she saw that the Chunsheng Hall was also burning charcoal pots in the inner hall and the warm pavilion, presumably Su Ruhui did not have too much charcoal here, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed for this girl.

"It's okay, we still have a lot of silver anyway, when the time comes, Xiuwan, you can go to the Shang Sleep Bureau and buy some similar ones." Su Ruhua said, "It doesn't have to be cold charcoal, those ordinary people don't have to smoke." ”

Xiuwan didn't know why this young lady, who could watch the rabbits that had been raised for several months, freeze to death, would be so concerned about Shuyue Palace, so she had to reluctantly put a few large pots for the Tsing Yi Palace maid, and sent them to Shuyue Hall for her.

After such a fuss, Su Ruhui felt sleepy, but as soon as she changed her clothes, Xiuwan had already returned, stood at the door of the inner hall and said, "Miss, Aunt Siyan has to give me this!" ”

"That aunt's name is Siyan?" Su Ruhua said, "Did she give you something?" Come and I'll take a look. ”

"The slave maid just came in from outside, and the cold air on her body is heavy, and the young lady has already changed her clothes, so let's go over when the slave and maid dissipate the cold air." Xiuwan said, "It's a jade scratching head, Aunt Siyan said that Mrs. Yinghua rewarded her in the past." ”

When the two were talking, the cold on Xiuwan's body was almost dissipated, so she approached and opened the tent, and handed over a simple jade scratcher, Su Ruhui looked at it by a palace lamp beside her, and said: "It's a good mutton fat jade, there is no inlay with other things, you can wear it, but the color is too plain, the New Year is approaching, but don't wear it during this time." ”

"Doesn't Miss blame the slave next? The slave and maid were originally resolute in refusing, but the aunt had to give it, and later the dispute alarmed Mrs. Yinghua inside, Aunt Siyan was busy going in to appease, His Majesty forbade outsiders to enter the inner hall, and the slave and maid couldn't throw it outside, so they had to take it back first. Xiuwan saw that Su Ruhui should take care of Shuyue Palace, and the situation of Shuyue Hall was obviously not as good as that of Chunsheng Palace, so she was extremely uneasy when she took Siyan's things, and took the initiative to tell Su Ruhui as soon as she came back.

Su Ruhui handed the jade back to her, and said with a smile: "What's so tight about this?" Now Shuyue Hall doesn't need to dress up to show His Majesty, and they are embarrassed, this jade scratch is still kept, obviously it hasn't been able to change for anything useful, so it's good for you. ”

After sending Xiuwan away, Su Ruhui thought for a moment and decided to go to Shuyue Hall again in a few days.

Even the charcoal for heating is missing, and other things, even less in the Shuyue Palace.

She is now counting the days and leaving the palace, living alone and bored, it is better to ask if Mrs. Xia Yinghua is her master's old friend, if so, Su Ruhui decided to leave all the silver for Siyan before leaving.
