Chapter 52: No Ladder
There are many people who have been killed in the harem, and there are even more people who have been unjustly killed or died in vain, and a timid person like Shuya does not dare to go out casually at night.
Su Youyi was not afraid of this, "What's the problem?" The wind was strong and cool in the high places, and it was I who came up to blow the wind. I don't do bad things in my life, and I'm not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night, so why worry about this? ”
Shuya was infected by her calm momentum and slowly calmed down, "What the noble man said is that this tower is indeed good for summer vacation, but it is darker. ”
Su Youyi said: "I'm not afraid of this, you help me get a couch to put here, I have nothing to do, wouldn't I save the iceberg?" ”
"I also have to put on the coffee table and chairs, and then put fresh melons and fruits and tea snacks!"
Shuya said softly, "The nobles will enjoy it, but we slaves have to run up and down." ”
The two were talking lively, when they suddenly heard someone coming up from the stairs below, "Noble Zhao, the queen sent someone to send a reward, do you want to go and see it in person?" ”
"Naturally."
Su Youyi agreed without thinking about it, and walked down with the person who reported it, and when she walked into the courtyard, she saw that the palace maid Cui Shao in the queen's palace was leading a team of people, holding clothes, jewelry and other things in her hands.
"The slave has seen the nobleman."
"Auntie excuses me."
Su Youyi actually helped her up with her own hands, Cui was stunned for a moment, and quickly returned to her normal color, "These are the queen's mother's slaves and maids to the nobles of Zhao, the nobles have just moved to a new residence, if there is anything that you are not used to, just say it, and if you lack anything, just say it." The queen mother manages the harem according to the emperor's will, and she will definitely not treat the emperor's life-saving benefactor lightly. ”
Su Youyi smiled and glanced at Shuya, who hurriedly stuffed a big purse into Cui Shake's hand, Su Youyi said: "Please go back and thank the queen for me, and say that I will go to thank you tomorrow." And Cuiwei's girl I looked very good, and decided to bring her and Shuya from Dongsi Institute together. This is a trivial matter, I don't know if I want to return to the queen's mother, and ask my aunt to do it for me. ”
Cui Shao couldn't help but smile, and said in his heart that Su Youyi was a good person.
She knew that the emperor had found her the queen as a backer, and she also knew that Cuiwei was the queen's person, so she specially told Cuiyao that she promoted Cuiwei to show loyalty to the queen.
Cui shook a smile and took the big purse, sleeved it into his hand, "Thank you for the reward, the nobleman's words will be brought to the queen." The queen also has a sentence to let the slave maid bring to the Zhao nobles, the mother said that last time the nobles proposed to let the three princes exercise more and eat less meat, the mother tried it and felt that the three princes' bodies were really stronger, and wanted to express her gratitude to the Zhao nobles. ”
Su Youyi was stunned, she didn't want to say something she inadvertently said last time, and the queen really did it.
Whether she sincerely expressed her gratitude to herself, or just wanted to take the opportunity to express her kindness to herself, Su Youyi was willing to accept it.
She shook her smile at Cui and said, "If the queen can trust the concubine, this is kindness to the concubine, where can I dare to be thanked by the queen?" ”
After Su Youyi coaxed Cui away happily, she suddenly felt her mouth dry.
Fortunately, the house was basically cleaned up, she sat on the couch and drank tea to rest, and Shuya came in with chilled melons and fruits.
"Noble, eat some freshly prepared watermelon, this is better than tea to quench your thirst."
Su Youyi nodded, picked up a piece casually, and saw that there were only her master and servant in the room, so she handed Shuya a piece.
Shuya looked out of the door, and when she saw that no one noticed the movement in the house, she took it and secretly smiled at Su Youyi.
Su Youyi said while eating: "Shuya, I originally wanted to keep you with the eldest prince, but now that things have changed, I'm afraid you have to follow me." ”
Shuya couldn't even care about eating the watermelon when she heard this, "The slave is willing, the slave is willing!" The slave maid originally wanted to follow the nobleman, knowing that the nobleman remembered the eldest prince in his heart, so the nobleman didn't dare to say anything even if he left the slave and maid by the eldest prince's side. Now the nobleman wants to keep the slave and maid with you, and the slave and maid are happy! ”
Su Youyi shushed at her and motioned for her to eat melons quietly.
Shuya took a bite of watermelon, and the sweet and cold taste melted into her mouth, and her mind calmed down.
Su Youyi said slowly: "The fact that the emperor married the queen for me was something I didn't expect before. Cuiwei is the queen's person, and in order to please the queen, I can only bring Cuiwei here. But there were only you and Cuiwei by my side, if I only brought her to her, she would be the rightful palace maid by my side, then wouldn't my affairs be completely controlled by the queen? ”
Shuya nodded, "The slave understands that the emperor helped the nobles to marry the queen so that the nobles would have an extra layer of security in the palace." But the noble man can't put his net worth and life in the hands of the queen, that's too risky. Therefore, the nobleman wants to bring the slave and the maid, and let the slave and the maid restrain Cuiwei, right? ”
Su Youyi had a teachable look on her face, "Smart, that's it!" ”
"What is the noble man going to do with the eldest prince?"
Su Youyi said: "The emperor once said that he would have a way, and he didn't need me. Worry about. Even if the emperor can't be trusted, we still have Xiao Jizi. Kiko is smarter than you, so it might be better to let him pass the word in the middle. ”
Shuya suddenly laughed, "Yes, that's just right!" I don't have to leave the nobles, and I'm not afraid that no one will watch by the side of the eldest prince! ”
She took a big bite of the watermelon and looked at Su Youyi with a smile.
Su Youyi put the watermelon in her hand on the table, "By the way, the four people who the emperor gave when I was in the river, I haven't had a chance to ask in a hurry these days, how are they?" ”
Shuya thought for a while, "I don't see any problems, the person given by the emperor must not be bad." It is also possible that the slave and maid are stupid and can't see it, do you want to see it for yourself? ”
Su Youyi nodded, "It's rare that I'm finally free at this time, so call them all in." ”
Shuya went out and called the four people, and a total of six people came in, along with Cuiwei, and the two of them stood in a row on the ground.
Su Youyi waved her hand at Shuya and the two, and the two retreated to the side to stand sideways, leaving only the four people.
"What's your name, how long have you been in the palace, and where did you go on an errand before?"
These people have been following Su Youyi for a few days, and this is the first time they have talked to her because of a series of things such as returning to the palace, canonization, and moving the palace.
The two palace maids standing in front of them hurriedly said: "Slave Chunhua, in the past, she was served in the Qianqing Palace, and she was responsible for serving tea. ”
"The slave maid Chunya is also serving in the Qianqing Palace, and is responsible for serving tea."
These two people have a pair of names, and they used to serve in one place, so it's no wonder that they were dialed together.
Su Youyi thought for a while, "The name Chunya is heavy with Shuya, it's not good." Why don't I change a word for you, would you like to? ”
