"He is the king, the most noble person in the entire Yin Shang, what woman has not seen it? In his opinion, I am a very ordinary qualification. That's good, I'm quiet. By the way, you don't have to serve me. In the future, I will share with you what I have, and I will do the work in the palace with you. “

As he spoke, Akhao lifted his sleeves and looked for work all over the ground.

"Girl, this ...... I can't help it. Hong Yuan looked frightened, "You are the master." How can you do the work of a slave? ”

"What's the point?" Akhao showed a puzzled expression, "Could it be that you want me to enslave you?" ”

"But, this ...... Inconsequential. Jing Yan also came to dissuade him.

"Etiquette is also determined by man, so why should we assume that it is right?"

"But ......"

"Don't be! Anyway, just listen to me. If you don't, one day I will ask the king to raid your whole house!" Ah Kao pretended to scare the palace maids.

"Yes, girl."

"Then let's get started! What work do you have left? “

"And ...... The steps in front of the temple were not wiped ...... The water didn't hit ......."

"Got it!" Akhao found a rag and a bucket and rushed out the door full of enthusiasm.

Several palace maids discussed: "Our new master, isn't there something wrong with his brain?" ”

"It's not that there's something wrong with her brain, she's so good that she's human! You think, in Yin Shang, who has seen us as human beings? We have been discriminated against and left out in the cold since we were young. Now being treated equally by the king's woman is really something that I never dreamed of! Lina sighed, her eyes showing admiration, "Daji Niangniang is our lucky star." “

At this time, outside Daji Palace, the sun was shining in the west, and a beautiful woman dressed in a water-green dress with an expensive headdress was rolling up her sleeves and kneeling on the ground to wipe the stone steps. Although the cleaning action is not like that of a man, it is even less like that of a woman. seems to be a rural peasant woman, although she wears delicate makeup and delicate clothes, her temperament does not look like a young lady from a rich family.

Another gorgeously dressed and slightly older beauty, with several palace maids, passed by. This person is the concubine of the West Palace.

Her palace maid embroidered cigarettes, and held in her hands the longevity peaches and delicate pastries she had received from the king. It was a gift that was given to the king when he first met him.

She was proud of the king's gift, but she was suddenly blinded by the sweaty Akhao who had been working hard and sweating profusely.

This beautiful and richly dressed beauty is kneeling on the ground, diligently sweeping the steps! This scene was clearly seen by Xigong Niangniang Maoqing, and she was surprised in her heart.

Concubine Mao frowned slightly, covered her nose with a handkerchief, twisted her waist slightly, and asked the embroidered smoke beside her: "This woman, judging from her dress, is obviously a master. Clean it yourself. It's weird! I wonder who lives in this palace? ”

"Back to Niangniang, it is Daji, the concubine of King Xinna, who lives inside. Just now, before we met the king, she also went to meet the king. However, he was soon sent out. There was neither a title nor any reward. Looking at this girl's dress, it must be Daji. "There is evil in the embroidered smoke and laughter.

When Concubine Mao heard this, she smiled from ear to ear: "Haha, which lady in the palace was not canonized just after meeting the king." The neglect of this woman is unprecedented. Looking at her performance, I'm afraid she's crazy. Let's go, so as not to invite bad luck here. “

Concubine Mao waved her sleeves and took away a cool breeze, as if she was sarcastic about the new "Daji". Before leaving, he did not forget to pick up a fragrant pastry and throw it on the ground, indicating that he would reward the incompetent with the remaining unwanted things.

Akhao was so angry by Concubine Mao's actions that he had a headache. Moreover, when they were talking, they were only a few meters away from Akau. Therefore, Akau, who has excellent hearing, hears all the words clearly.

She stopped what she was doing, sat down on the steps angrily, propped her elbows on her knees, and threw the rag to the ground: "The dog's eyes look down on people. “

Lina walked over and picked up the rag: "Girl, if you don't want to be angry, you have to fight for it yourself." “

"But I don't like the king." She stared blankly at the sunset in the distance, thoughtful.

"Since you have come to this palace, it is no longer a question of whether you like it or not, but whether you can live it."

"Is it really that serious?"

"Outsiders will never be able to understand what will happen to the living people who walk on the blade every day." Lina's eyes looked into the distance, and there was a vicissitudes in her amber eyes that an eighteen-year-old girl should not have.

"I don't understand."

"Girl, you'll understand. I'm afraid, doom is coming soon. "It's as if Lina is telling an ancient prophecy.

Akhao looked at her with interest: "You are the same age as me, but you have so many feelings. Why is that? ”

Lina smiled and touched the horn necklace around her neck.

Touching it, the eyes began to fill with stories.

She opened her mouth: "Actually, when I was ten years old, I was still the lord of Persia. In a greedy game, he broke into the Yin Shang military camp. So he was taken captive. ”

"What! You turned out to be the county lord! Akhao was surprised, "No wonder you have more knowledge than other palace maids. ”

"It's not a big deal. Anyway, now, I'm in Yin Shang, and I'm just a slave. ”

"I don't see you as slaves."

"No matter what the girl thinks. The reality is, I'm a slave. This cannot be changed. Just like you, the woman who is the king, you have to compete for favor, which is also a fact that cannot be changed. ”

Lina stood up suddenly: "Girl, I'm going to prepare dinner with them." You can think about what I said, I hope it will help you. ”

Aka's stomach was pondering on the steps, and it was like a big rock in her heart, which weighed her down.

As soon as Concubine Mao walked to the door of the East Palace, she couldn't help laughing.

"Hahaha, Sister Queen, how are you doing lately?" She said aloud as she walked into the inner room.

"Look what you want." Concubine Yang was also in the queen's palace at this time, and was waiting for the queen's medicine, "The king has been ill for a long time, and the queen's mother has also been unwell for a long time. It's really unseemly for you to make such a fuss. ”

"If the king saw your trembling appearance, he would be fascinated by you." The queen looked kind, and her tone seemed to be dissatisfied, but it was not shown on her face.

"Sister Queen forgives her sins, and Sister Yang atonements." Concubine Mao, the queen and Concubine Yang were together, so they naturally knew that they wouldn't really blame themselves, they were just joking.

The queen didn't look at Concubine Mao, and after swallowing a mouthful of medicine, she asked slowly, "Are today's flowers blooming?" ”

Concubine Mao's eyes flickered: "Hehe, the flowers are blooming, but the flower picker has no intention, even the fairy grass is sad." As she spoke, Concubine Mao took out her handkerchief and covered her mouth and snickered.

"Have you been banned?" The queen asked again.

"Not either."

"What?" Concubine Yang frowned, "The king has always wanted to marry the Yousu clan in order to consolidate his power in the border defense. Now that Daji has been snatched, even if you don't like it anymore, you have to give it a title. ”

Concubine Mao smiled wickedly: "I'm afraid, this woman has touched the king's moldy head, even if it is useful, the king is unwilling to deal with her." ”

The queen looked calm, and after taking the full bowl of medicine, she took a piece of sweet candy.

sighed lightly, which made Concubine Mao and Concubine Yang anxious.

"What's on the Queen's mind?"

"You don't understand the king's mind." The queen sighed again, "The king is ignoring her, but he is actually protecting her." In order to prevent her pampering from bringing disaster to her. I'm afraid that when the king saw her for the first time, he already had a deep love for her. ”

Concubine Mao was so frightened that she covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and Concubine Yang was so shocked that she didn't hold the medicine bowl in her hand.

"Bang dang!"

"What do you mean by that? You already have the seventh prince and the eleventh prince, and you are still afraid of this woman who was a cheap slave ten years ago? The queen wiped her mouth with a veil.

He turned his head to Concubine Mao and said, "And you, although you only gave birth to a princess, but fortunately, you are only nineteen years old, and you look the best in the palace." There are still opportunities. ”

Concubine Mao breathed a sigh of relief: "At the beginning, the queen's sister said that Nadaji was like a piece of the king's heart, and we were also worried. ”

The queen glanced at her contemptuously, "Although she is not much of a threat to you now. However, if there is no hundred days of flowers, sooner or later your grace will become a thing of the past. If you don't defend with your heart, you will be killed by the newcomer's knife. ”

Concubine Mao was angry: "Sister Queen, you have to save us." This Daji doesn't look like a good thing at first glance. The appearance is pure and refined, but the inside must be full of bad water. “

"Do you remember Concubine Zhuang in the Cold Palace?"

Remember, since she gave birth to the third prince and the fifth prince, she didn't take the queen's sister seriously. Three years ago, I actually wanted to poison my sister, but I was knocked down by my sister in one step, which was very happy. ”

"Yes, back then, if I hadn't done it first, I'm afraid that I would be the one in the cold palace today!" The queen brought up the past, and her mood fluctuated slightly. It seems that this Concubine Zhuang was really a thorn in the queen's eyes in the past.

The queen paused for a moment: "Well, as long as you are willing to think about it, there will be it." The important thing is to use the right time and strike first. “

The queen's intention was to let the two of them find an opportunity to get rid of Daji. The two of them thought that it was the best policy to tie up with the queen at this time.

The two concubines glanced at each other. Concubine Mao's eyes became more and more evil, she looked at Concubine Yang and said, "Sister Yang already has two sons. Just give me this opportunity to make a meritorious service. ”

"Then let it be given to you!" Concubine Yang is very generous.

Out of the East Palace, Concubine Yang's maid asked curiously: "Niangniang, why don't you rush to do it, and prefer to hand over the task of dealing with Daji to Concubine Mao?" ”

"Well, you don't understand this! The reason why the king wants to marry Daji is because he wants to marry the Su family, which can help him politically. Now the king is sincere to Daji again. Therefore, this Daji is even more untouchable. If I do harm her, the king will hold a grudge against me. ”

"But, in that case, why did the queen let you frame Daji?"

"The queen wants to kill with a sword. Now Concubine Mao is going to frame a person who can't be framed, if she succeeds. Then Daji, the worst enemy, is gone. What if you lose a little concubine, the queen can still continue to carry other concubines. ”

"I see, it's still the mother who is wise and wise, and she threw this hot potato to the West Palace."
