Xue Hainiang told her again, nothing more than to inform her to take care of Liang Bairou.

When it was time to arrive, Xue Hainiang saw that Cai Xi was really tired, thinking that now that Liang Bairou was out of power, the people who served around her must not be dissatisfied, so that the big and small affairs would belong to Cai Xi alone, so she hurriedly let her go back.

"It's not early, you and I have to get up early to serve our master tomorrow, so let's go back and rest. After that, seeing Cai Xi's head, Xue Hainiang got up and walked to the outer room to push open the window, and informed the flowers guarding outside, and the flowers came in immediately, and arranged for Cai Xi to avoid the night guards and leave in concealment.

Huahua had already sent people to watch in the dark, and as soon as she heard that the waiter was coming to report, she took advantage of the patrol guards to call Xue Hainiang and Cai Xi to leave.

Yangxin Palace is located in the center of the imperial city, and Zhongcui Palace, which is located in the southwest, is far from each other, Xue Hainiang and Cai Xi walked to a fork in the road and parted ways and waved goodbye.

Xue Hainiang took a shortcut, she has a lot of trivial matters since she entered the Palace of Cultivating Hearts, and the rules are strict, and under the constraints of many regulations, in addition to the things within her own business, she also needs to take time to receive training.

Otherwise, there is no need to sneak in the middle of the night. Now that it is a child, it will take one or two hours to wash up after returning to the Heart Cultivation Palace, so that I am afraid that I will have to get up and wait after only two or three hours of light sleep.

The candles are flickering, and the palace lights are like day.

Nearly ten steps away from the Heart Cultivation Palace, you can see the high-rise palace gate, the candlelight is flickering, and it seems that the dawn is approaching within a square mile.

Xue Hainiang extinguished the palace lamp in her hand, abandoned it aside, and burrowed into the bushes.

She walked around the bushes to the palace of nourishing the heart as she wished, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and now she stepped into this hall, so that people could see that there were also words of prevarication, and she would not be punished by the palace rules.

was about to walk towards her residence, but a slightly sharp voice behind her came to her ears, startling her delicate body.

"Stop, where are you a maid, who are still staying here at this hour, and you can afford to disturb the Holy Driver?"

For example, the night vigil needs to go to the palace to guard before the time comes; And Xue Hainiang was personally recommended by the chief steward to serve in the pantry in the past.

Although cooking tea soup is not a laborious work, it can be prepared every one or two hours, and the process is rigorous, and there must be no mistakes.

Xue Hainiang stabilized her mind, turned over and bowed to the inner attendant, "Xue Hainiang, the maid in the slave pantry, has seen the inner attendant. ”

The inner chamberlain is different from the chief steward, who is the emperor's confidant, waiting for the emperor's daily life and food, and has been by his side since he was a child. The inner eunuch is the chief eunuch in charge of the servants and maidservants in the palace of nourishing the heart. Although the inner chamberlain is in charge of the trivial matters of the Heart Cultivation Palace, he also has to follow the instructions of the chief steward one by one and compliment them in every way.

The inner chamberlain was hindered by Xue Hainiang, who was personally recommended by the chief manager, and did not dare to criticize him with all kinds of preferential treatment. He tried more than once, asking Xue Hainiang and the maidservant who was good friends with Xue Hainiang about the relationship between the two, but he never solved the puzzle. He had a lot of worries at first, but after seeing that the chief steward placed her in the pantry to serve, he no longer cared, so the inner eunuch no longer had many concerns, just when Xue Hainiang was like an ordinary servant, he would be reprimanded when he should be reprimanded, and he would be punished when he should be punished.

What's more, because of the many accommodations and preferential treatment of this little maid before, he now feels depressed when he thinks about it, so he looks at Xue Hainiang more and more unpleasantly.

"This eunuch knows that you are that Xue Hainiang, this eunuch asks you, you are not in the palace pavilion at this hour, what are you doing here?"

Xue Hainiang had already thought about it thoroughly, and blurted out: "The slave lost the earrings up and down when she was in the middle of the day, and she didn't find them after looking for a while. When I returned to the room, I was unwilling, and it was really difficult to sleep when I tossed and turned, so I got up and continued to look for it. ”

"Earrings?" the inner chamberlain sneered, "I heard that you once served the Liang Meiren who was favored for a while, and Liang Meiren rewarded you with a lot of earrings in the past, but the earrings can keep you awake at night? Do you know that you serve in the pantry, and you must not make the slightest mistake, if the tea in Your Majesty's mouth goes wrong, Your Majesty is angry, and it is not said that it is you, even this prisoner has to bear the sin with you." ”

He lowered his eyes and thought about it, and only said after a while: "This eunuch thinks that you may be in poor spirits tomorrow, so you don't need to serve in the pantry, and someone will take your place tomorrow, so you will give this eunuch a good time to go back and face the wall for three days, and you must not go out for a single step, and copy the palace rules ten times, otherwise don't blame this eunuch for being ruthless." ”

Grounded for three days –

If it is just a normal place, she can take advantage of the three-day grounding to rest, but Liang Bairou is still waiting for her to ask the concubine for a doctor to go to the court, if she is grounded for three days and cannot go out, how can she meet Xiao Guifei?

Xue Hainiang bit her lip lightly, her phoenix eyes flashed a trace of awe-inspiring, and then raised her head with a coquettish smile, she was neither humble nor arrogant, and said eloquently, "Whether Ming'er is not in good spirits is the slave and maid's own business, if the inner chamberlain is punished for this, I am afraid that it will be spread out, and everyone will spread it to the ears of the chief steward, and then the inner chamberlain will leave a notoriety in the heart of the saint." ”

The inner eunuch was slightly stunned, Xu didn't expect Xue Hainiang to have the courage to refute his order, and stared at Xue Hainiang for a long time before saying: "The Holy Lord handed over the whole of the Heart Cultivation Hall to this supervisor to take care of, and he has a lot of trust in this prison, besides, if you don't sleep in the middle of the night, wander around the palace, why can't this prison punish you with palace rules?"

Xue Hainiang was clever and eloquent, and said without panic: "The jade pendant was given by the concubine Niangniang when the slave maid served in the Qiankun Palace before, and the concubine Niangniang once said that she needed to wear it all the time, but now that the ear pendant has fallen, the slave maid is looking for it this time, and it can be regarded as adhering to the instructions of the concubine Niangniang." The palace rules only state that you can't wander around the palace for no reason, but the slave maid is not for no reason, but acts in accordance with the instructions of the concubine Niangniang, and dares to ask the inner chamberlain, is this also a violation of the palace rules?"

The inner eunuch was speechless for a while, Xu was not expecting a twenty-eight-year-old maid to be so clever and eloquent, he usually looked at Xue Hainiang silently and quietly, and originally thought that he was a person who kept to himself and was gentle and timid.
