Chapter 1: Opportunity
In the fifth year of Emperor Xia Xiao,
midsummer
Raccoon Bureau.
Calm has been a laundry maid for three years.
In two more years, you can submit an application to leave the palace.
Calm Only when I think of the days after leaving the palace, will I feel a little hope in my heart.
She was a soul that had crossed over, stored in the body of this poor girl, depressed by such a life.
The sky was slightly bright, and the calm who had not slept all night turned over and got up, waking up Yuwan beside him.
Yuwan opened her hazy sleepy eyes, looked out the window, turned over and fell asleep again.
Get up calmly, go out quietly, wash up a little and start working.
After washing the two sheets, Mama Xu, the steward of the Huan Washing Bureau, came out of the house yawning and went to the well to fetch water to wash.
The steward here is also rankless, but an old palace maid who has not left the palace in the Siyi Division.
The more palace maids are like this, the more they have to put on a shelf.
Calmly stopped the work in hand, walked over, respectfully called Mama, took the copper basin in her hand, and fetched water for her.
Mama Xu sat down on the stone bench under the shade of the tree, laughed dryly, and shook her head with some regret.
This child has been a different person since he was rescued from the well the last time he was fetched water.
The original person who was like wood has now become more wooden, but he has more eyes and knows how to please her.
Mama Xu calmly poured water, pulled a few handfuls of flower petals in the flower garden and put them in, and brought them to her.
She cleaned her face and calmly held a towel beside her, waiting for her.
The people who serve her, she is not rare, the money she wants.
But what is lacking in calm is silver.
She is different from most laundry maids, she was assigned here after she was a sinner, and most of the palace maids in the Huanyi Bureau made mistakes, and there was no shortage of celebrities with infinite scenery in front of the master, and such people, she Xu Mama didn't dare to use them at all.
is a huge Huanyi Bureau, and there are only a dozen people who Mama Xu really dares to use. And there are only two people who really dare to bully and insult arbitrarily.
Only these two men were appointed here after they were sinners.
One of them is calmness.
Pei Shaofen is another.
But Pei Shaofen has a strong temperament and a hot temper, looking for death and life at every turn, but she refuses to really die, often because of her unfair distribution, the people who quarrel with her turn on their backs, alarming the adults in the prison next door.
Mama Xu really didn't want to go back and alarm those adults.
What she is afraid of is Pei Shaofen's unobstructed mouth, in case she tells her about it, she will not have her good fruit to eat.
Calmly handed her the towel.
Mama Xu took it, wiped her face, her heart suddenly turned into spring water, and said to her with a smile: "I don't need you to wash your clothes today, pack up the sheets that you washed yesterday, and follow Gonggong Shi into the palace to send them to Si Yisi." ”
The Huanyi Bureau is the only one of the six games and thirteen divisions that is not in the inner garden of the palace.
Calmly agreed, Shi Dali thanked Mama Xu, but the little face that had been tense was clearly expressionless.
This made Mama Xu a little unhappy.
Letting her do this is already a great favor, she should be frightened, why is she still so expressionless?
"You go with Feng Cai, she is a celebrity next to Concubine Xian, she was punished here because she was wronged, you have to listen to her in everything, only follow her into the palace once, and have a long experience, and finally the hard work of the past few years has not been in vain."
Mama Xu said coldly.
She didn't take her money, and giving her this opportunity was really cheap for her.
You must know that for others, this opportunity to enter the palace is to be exchanged for ten taels of silver.
Mama Xu went into the house to change clothes, and when she came out again, she calmly gave her a bird woven with rattan, which was vivid, as if she could fly to the sky with a breath.
Mama Xu took it and laughed.
This little thing was sent to her heart, and her brother would bring his little daughter to see her, although this little thing was worthless, but it was very dexterous, and the child would like it.
So she thought about it and told her to calm down one more thing: "Calm down, you come in with me." ”
Calmly followed her into the house, she picked up a small box on the table, handed it to her, and said with a smile: "This time when you enter the palace, Fengcai must go to the Wanchun Pavilion of Concubine Xian, you follow her and give this to a father-in-law named Qingchun."
Today is his duty, and the round-faced and big-eyed man standing on the left side of the gate of Wanchun Pavilion is it. ”
calmly agreed, stuffed the small box into his sleeve and put it away, said goodbye, and walked to the door, but heard Mama Xu laugh behind him again: "It's better to give it to him alone, although it's not a good thing, it will inevitably be seen by others." ”
"Mama rest assured, calm and understand." Calmly turned around, gave a salute, and replied hoarsely.
Mama Xu nodded, regretting her for no reason.
This girl was born well, but her voice is not beautiful, hoarse and low, and it sounds sad.
Feng Cai didn't expect that the person who entered the palace with her today would be calm.
Like a proud peacock, she sat in the carriage, looking down at the calmness of trying to climb into the carriage, and pursed her lips with disdain.
The Raccoon Clothes Bureau is only a street away from the Imperial Palace, and the carriage that goes to the Imperial Palace to deliver clothes has never had an accident.
Today, however, when the galloping carriage rushed to the gate of the inner chamberlain, suddenly a stiffened horse rushed out of the open gate of the inner chamberlain!
The temperamental steed slammed into the carriage ferociously.
No matter how experienced Father-in-law Shi is, he can't resist such an impact.
The carriage was knocked to the ground, and Calm and Fengcai were thrown out, Fengcai was fine, his eyes were quick, and he grabbed the wheels, only scratching a little fur.
Calm is not good, her body is light, and there is nowhere to climb, she was thrown more than a foot away, and fell heavily to the ground.
The pain around me came to my brain, and I thought calmly and sadly that my life was over again.
A voice seemed to come from afar, as if calling for her to come back.
Although the voice is rapid, it is very good, and it sounds like a song that can relieve pain.
She opened her eyes.
What catches your eye is the face of a handsome man who doesn't let people breathe.
