Yuhu pointed to the closed inner supervisor in front of the door and said: "The one at the door is Yuxi's father-in-law, his skill of playing the board is ancestral, and he guarantees that you will not be able to open the skin and the flesh will not bloom, and you will not be able to get up for half a month, so don't look for it! Everyone is good to gather and disperse, and it is good to see each other in the future, don't stand up and enter the palace and lie down, then it will be a shame that you can enter the palace and be a palace slave." ”

The slave girls below all bowed their heads and trembled.

"Do you understand?!"

Miko asked.

"Got it......

Everyone replied timidly.

This Yuhu seems to be an experienced man, and a few words are both pertinent and can give these female slaves a big dismount, which is really a bit of leadership.

Su Lian pulled her arm and never let go.

They looked at this strange environment in the palace of King Duan with fear, not knowing what fate awaited them.

Yuhu does what he says, and treats slaves very strictly.

Within a month, the new slaves who enter the palace not only need to master the complicated etiquette of the country, but also learn a skill, so as to serve the master in front of him.

Xiao Qi knows this, but it's not very difficult to learn. But Su Lian is different, he is punished by Yuhu every time, sometimes he can't get food for several days in a row, and he is hungry.

Fortunately, she is not a serious person, Xiao Qi secretly gave her food, she filled her stomach, and forgot all the suffering.

There are many classes among slaves. The last level is the rough slave, pouring the bucket, washing the clothes of the palace people, and doing whatever is dirty and tired.

Secondly, it is distributed to the major Shang palaces as low-level slaves. It is mainly responsible for the affairs under the jurisdiction of each Shang Palace, or making clothes, or doing flowers, or sorting out the treasury.

The best is the first-class slave who is distributed to the masters of each palace to serve. Those who have face in front of the master can enter the palace to serve, and their status is similar to that of the palace maid.

Xiao Qi was the most outstanding among the slaves, and was assigned to serve in the queen's palace, while Su Lian was assigned to the Shihua Bureau.

The queen's palace is not as worry-free as imagined, and she has suffered the loss of the previous life, this time, Xiao Qi has reined in her edge, handled things carefully, and has done everything in her own hands. She is down-to-earth and hardworking, so she makes other slaves feel that she is easy to bully, occasionally makes things difficult, and even throws her own work to do, Xiao Qi has no complaints.

Slaves are the lowest people in the entire Five Continents Continent, and in the eyes of the nobles, they are even inhuman. Even if he entered the palace of Queen Duan and served as a first-class slave, this humble status cannot be changed.

The miserable manager told her that instead of seeing these people who worship high and low, it is better to be patient and wait for the opportunity.

Queen Duan is kind on the surface, but in fact she is ruthless.

Chang Ji was sent by Xuanjing Mansion, and she was quite loved by Xiao Yi for half a year, and she was favored night and night, and the harem was full of complaints, but the queen rewarded her instead, and there were many rewards. Just when everyone thought that the entire palace was going to look up to Chang Ji for a snort, Cheng Qing Palace suddenly came with the news of Chang Ji's violent death.

It turned out that the queen secretly gave Changji poison, treated the corpse as a slave who died violently, and directly threw it into the mass grave, and the means were vigorous and resolute, which caught people off guard.

Xiao Qi understands that although Duanwang Palace is only the court of a small fiefdom, it is the same as the palace of that Great Chu, and there is never a lack of power and calculation.

In winter, the ice edges, broken, are all scrambling to emerge.

People die every day in the palace, and no one remembers who they are. The old is gone, and the new comes. Xiao Qi is like this, in the Kunling Palace, he has served carefully for a whole year.

......

The cold wind blows, the fiery red plums sway gently, and the plum blossoms fall with the wind, dotted in the pure white snow. After a winter snowfall, the weather was extremely cold, and Yun Ge brought two braziers and placed them in the hall, and the temperature was slightly warmer.

Yun Gefang knelt on the ground, and heard Wang Ji's enchanting voice coming from above his head.

"Since Chang Ji, the king has never really been interested in anyone, and every day he makes excerpts in the study, or goes to the horse farm with the war general to ride and shoot, and goes to the barracks to order soldiers. The walls of the harem are cold, and the king can only warm up once he comes. We all thought that this good day was over, but it happened that my sister came at this moment to save my sisters from fire and water. The grace of one, like this charcoal basin, smokes the whole house warm. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes fell on Mei Ji, who was sitting on the last mat.

Wang Ji gently helped the golden hairpin on top of her head, and continued to tease: "Speaking of which, Sister Mei Ji has served the king meritoriously, and the king is also a reward sent to your warm pavilion like flowing water, why is she dressed so shabby today." During the Chinese New Year, the sisters in the palace all wore new clothes made of satin rewarded by the queen's mother, why the younger sister was very different. Do you want to continue to be an example of frugality this time, or are you dissatisfied with the reward of the queen's mother, and give our sisters a look? ”

At this moment, Mei Ji has a very ordinary bun on her head, silver hairpins on her temples, and two silver begonias, and other than that, there is no jewelry. The pink skirt was covered with a simple daisy, and the relatively cheap mink fur was used on the big skirt, rather than the mink wool that other concubines were used to.

As the lowest-class concubine in the Duan Palace, there is nothing wrong with this dress, and there is nothing out of line. But at this time, it is the end of the year, and the concubines are all dressed up and dressed up, and the beauty in the flowers is too plain.

Mei Ji looked at Wang Ji.

Her phoenix eyes are full of provocation, her bright red clothes are like flames, and her temples and eyebrows are slightly raised, which is quite majestic.

Wang Ji likes Ayaluo jewelry the most, but Mei Ji prefers to suggest that Xiao Yi should be frugal and add cotton clothes for front-line soldiers, so that under the New Year, the share of each palace is reduced by half compared to normal days.

Wang Ji's dissatisfaction is also the dissatisfaction of the palaces.

In an instant, no one spoke again, and Mei Ji saw this and hurriedly knelt down.

"The queen mother forgives the sin, the concubine has no such intention, but she feels that her position is low, so she can show her humility to the queen mother, not disrespectful......"

"You say this as if I have wronged you. You are not the only one here, you are humble in your shabby dress, and our sisters are offending the queen when they dress up in gorgeous clothes?"

As soon as these words came out, all the concubines immediately showed disgust.

Everyone is far away in Duanguo, and they can't go back to their parents' homes to visit their parents, so under the New Year's Festival, the queen specially prepared rich gifts and sent them to the palaces to show comfort. Everyone in the harem thanked the queen for her grace, and they all came to thank her with the queen's reward, but Mei Ji, who proposed frugality, did not do so.

She is already different from others, she favors the harem, and now she satirizes the costumes of other good concubines who are doing it, which naturally causes a lot of dissatisfaction.
