As Ping'er said, when I arrived at Concubine Yi, it was already completely dark.

Although they took the palace lanterns and the snow was shining on the ground, it was still a little late.

But Zhuang Siyan doesn't care about this, she is in charge of the harem right and now, and the rules are also set by her, even if she is more rampant, no one will say that she is not.

It's just that I don't know if Concubine Yi really fell asleep.

When they arrived at the gate of Yifei Palace, they saw that the door was not closed, but it was just hidden, and the lights could be seen inside, so they asked Ping'er to go and spread the word first.

The little palace maids in the palace heard that the queen mother was coming, and they were all busy coming to pick them up.

Concubine Yi didn't fall asleep, she was still sitting outside under the porch, but the night was too long, she was full of worries, and she didn't want to sit in the house, so she came out.

I was afraid that those small palaces would be cold, so they let them play by themselves, leaving only a close one to serve by their side.

Hearing that Zhuang Siyan was coming, she was also stunned, and the palace maid in front of her was also going to the palace gate.

Zhuang Siyan had already entered the palace gate, looked at her from a distance and said, "Don't move there, it's all snow here, and you have to get your shoes and socks wet when you step on it." ”

How dare Concubine Yi be so presumptuous, she still walked down the steps and greeted her for a while.

Zhuang Siyan didn't care if her body was covered with snow, whether it was also wet, she was quite happy, looked at her yard and said, "Why don't you sweep the snow here, don't you also like to see snow." ”

Concubine Yi hurriedly said: "It's true that I love to see it, but the Internal Affairs Office is too busy today, so I cleaned up the snow on the palace road first, and I haven't taken care of these courtyards, and there are few palace people here, so I only cleaned up a small piece, and then it went down, and the road was paved again." ”

Zhuang Siyan smiled and said: "It's also good like this, it's also comfortable to look at when you walk." ”

The two talked and walked to the porch together, and the palace maids had already made hot tea and brought it up.

Zhuang Siyan took two sips before asking her again: "It's quite cold outside, what are you doing sitting here at night?" ”

Concubine Yi didn't reply to this, but said, "If the queen feels cold, let's go to the palace." ”

Zhuang Siyan shook his head: "Well, I'm not cold, I came from Lingshuang Pavilion, walked here, and sweated all over, my hands and feet are still hot at this time, but I don't know if Concubine Yi is also hot?" ”

Looking at Yifei's appearance, she is not a person who does not like sports.

In this cold weather, if you don't move, no matter how thick you wear, it will be cold outside.

However, Concubine Yi was reluctant to say, she didn't ask again, the two drank a few sips of tea, Zhuang Siyan was still wondering, if she opened her mouth to ask about noon, she wouldn't say, but she heard Concubine Yi open her mouth first.

"Queen Mother, I ...... because of the incident in Northern Xinjiang before"

She only got up once, and Zhuang Siyan suddenly remembered the things that she had promised her in the end, although when the two sides negotiated the conditions, Concubine Yi did not complete what she should do.

But Qiu Gang is really almost finished, this intelligence point of hers has no effect, and it is useless to put her in the palace.

Zhuang Siyan promised to send her the farm and let her out of the palace at that time, thinking about it, it was last winter.

It's been a year now, and I'm a little embarrassed.

She glanced at Concubine Yi and said, "This should have been done a long time ago, but I was always busy with this and that, and I forgot about it, but fortunately you reminded me." ”

After a pause, he said: "Although it is not the best time to get out of the palace, it is not impossible, I bought a piece of land outside the capital before, which is not a good field, but if you go, it is still possible to be self-sufficient." ”

Concubine Yi: "Thank you Queen Mother, since I entered the palace, the food is royal, if you take anything to thank you, it is also these things in the palace, I think you are not rare, it is this jade bracelet, my mother put it on me before I entered the palace, and now I will give it to the Queen Mother." ”

The jade bracelet on Concubine Yi's hand is a good thing just by looking at it, the jade is clear, and there are drifting flowers on it, which should be the old pit species that people say in their mouths.

But this is someone else's mother, and I took it away by myself, which is not good.

However, Zhuang Siyan has never suffered losses, but "haha" smiled and pushed her hand: "I don't want this jade bracelet, I know that she is very valuable, especially important to you, so you can take it with you."

But this piece of land was also bought by me from someone else, and the money used was really not taken out of the palace, but the silver from my detective agency outside.

So now it's given to you, and you also take out the money of the cost.

But what you said earlier is right, I have been in the palace, and the money and everything are given by the palace, but there should be some private rooms.

It's more or less meaningful, from now on, we have two silver and land, you don't have to owe me a favor, and I haven't given you anything.

It's not easy for everyone. ”

Concubine Yi immediately ordered the maid to go to the inner room and took out the broken silver she had saved, as well as some gold hairpins and silver ornaments.

In addition to some things in the palace, she must be taken down, and in addition to the collection of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, she basically took out all the things that belonged to her.

It's not much, it's just a box, put it in front of Zhuang Siyan.

Zhuang Siyan is not greedy, she estimates how much her land is worth, and she takes a little more from Concubine Yi than she bought the land at the beginning, so forget it.

In the end, he returned some gold hairpins and other things to her: "I only need enough silver, and I don't use it all for myself, I still have to take it out and turn it around." ”

Concubine Yi expressed understanding.

If she really used it for herself, what didn't have her in the palace, Ling Tiancheng spoiled her so much, would she still lack her things?

But Zhuang Siyan really divided the money earned outside with his monthly schedule very clearly, and this Concubine Yi knew it.

After Zhuang Siyan received the silver, he didn't sit long, got up and said: "You clean up, I will return this matter to the emperor tomorrow, he should be no problem there, so you can choose a day in the near future, and you can tell me when you are ready." ”

Concubine Yi knelt down to thank her, and was helped up by Zhuang Siyan: "No need to be like this, in this palace, I am the queen, you are the concubine, it looks like you are a little lower than me, and when you meet, you will bow three times and bow nine times, in front of the emperor, I can't say anything about you, but out of this palace gate, you and I are free bodies, so there is no need to be like this." ”

After she finished speaking, she took Ping'er and left.

Concubine Yi stood in the courtyard for a long time, watching their figures disappear and watch the palace gate close.

The palace maid came to urge her to be cold, and hurriedly went into the house to rest, and after urging a few times, she turned around and walked inside.

The palace maid who was close to her talked more to her, and after following up, she whispered: "This queen mother is also, in the harem, the emperor favors her alone, what do you want, and she comes to rare Niangniang's silver." ”

Concubine Yi frowned at her: "You are not allowed to say such things in the future." ”

The palace maid was followed out of her home, and she accompanied her from childhood to adulthood, sometimes she felt that she was loyal, and she would say a few words.

"Miss, if you talk about it, the queen is more than you, why is she in the harem, she has to press you everywhere, and now she wants to go out, and she has to follow

If you have a sum of money in your hand, she will not be afraid that she will take the money and rot her hands? ”

Concubine Yi was really angry, and immediately threw out the small heater in her hand.

The palace maid saw that the master was angry, so she knelt down.

Concubine Yi didn't let her get up, and said sternly in her voice: "You have followed me since you were a child, you know my temper, before the matter is settled, everything you say will be done, and when the matter is settled, you will keep your mouth shut and can't say a word."

If one day in the future, because of your mouth, will you be able to afford it?

Besides, you are a palace maid, where do you have the right to talk about the master?

Take 10,000 steps back, even if you have this right, how can you feel that the queen is not as good as me?

She is also from a beautiful family, and her family background is higher than mine, although she was a dealer who later committed a crime, but my brother followed the king of Zhenbei, and what he did was also a matter of choice, if it was true, I would not be able to apologize for my death now.

I'm smart, and I'm above me in everything.

Since there is no such thing, just one emperor favors her, which is the biggest capital for her to control the inner palace.

The women of the inner palace are fighting for the emperor's favor, but she has everything, we have been fighting for so many years, but there is nothing.

Isn't that where she's better than me?

If you take it seriously, she really can't be regarded as a vicious person, although sometimes the means are excessive, but those are basically the first to do to her.

You have been in the palace for so long, have you ever heard that who was rectified by the queen for no reason? ”

Looking at Concubine Yi's appearance, she was very angry, after saying this to the palace maid, her breath was a little rough, and after thinking about it, she felt that she was just a palace maid, with shallow knowledge, so naturally she couldn't see the advantages of others, but she just felt that her master was wronged.

Speaking of which, it was all for her good, so she also asked the palace maid to get up.

After a pause, he said: "I went out of the palace this time, I can't go back to my mother's house, and I have nothing to rely on, although I bought the queen's land, but I haven't done these things since I was a child, and I don't know what will happen when I go out." ”

She glanced at the palace maid: "It's hard to say whether you will starve, if you want to say it, it's better to be in the palace, at least no matter what happens outside, you don't have to worry about food and clothing here, so if you want to stay here, stay here." ”

The palace maid just stood up, and when she heard this, she knelt down again with a "plop" sound, and tears came out: "Miss, I have been by your side since I was a child, from the Hou Mansion to the palace, what kind of hardship I have not suffered, what kind of things I have never seen, now it is the slave maid who has made a mistake, Miss has to be punished, and multiple slaves and maids have suffered, but the slave begged Miss, don't leave the slave and maid alone in this palace." When you left the waiting house, Mrs. said, Miss is here, the slave is here, if Miss doesn't want a slave, the slave and the maid can only die. ”

She wept very sadly, and she was indeed a faithful servant.

Concubine Yi is not a ruthless person, and she has been taken care of by her side for so many years, and she will not be too lonely.

So the master and servant talked about it once, and then they sympathized with each other, and finally decided to take her with them when they left the palace.

The name of this personal palace maid is Cuizhi, and she has been by her side for more than ten years, and she is very familiar with Concubine Yi's every move.

Concubine Yi thinks that she is also very familiar with her, but there are many things that are always difficult to guess before they happen.

And Concubine Yi's fate is really in her own hands after leaving the palace.

Zhuang Siyan sorted out the matter between them very clearly, and after sending her out, she didn't care about this matter anymore, and only focused on her own days.
