Chapter 18 Zhang Jieyu and Zhao Meiren

Ruyi helped me into the back hall. The back hall is inlaid with a large glazed partition with a rosewood carved Wanfu Wanshou border, which is divided into two rooms, and is very elegantly arranged.

I asked Ruyi pleasantly: "Where are Anshun people from?" How long have you been on an errand in the palace? ”

Her face was terrified, and she immediately knelt down and said, "The slave doesn't dare." The little master calls the slave and the maid by their name. ”

I reached out to help her up, laughing, and said, "Why be so afraid. I have always been uninhibited, although we are masters and servants in name, but you are older than me, and you have experienced a lot of things, and I respect you very much in my heart. Get up and speak. ”

Only then did she get up, her face full of gratitude, and she replied respectfully: "The little master really killed the slave and maid when he said this. The slave maid is a Mongolian, who has been in the palace as an errand since he was a child, and previously served the concubine of the filial piety emperor. Because he was not clumsy in doing things, he was pointed out, originally a palace maid, and the slave maid borrowed the blessing of the little master this time, which can be regarded as a petty official in the inner palace. ”

My smile became thicker and thicker, and my tone was gentle: "You have served the imperial concubine, and you must be a safe and sensible person." I have you to serve, and naturally I put a hundred and twenty hearts. In the future, the chores in the harem will be handled by you and Gonggong Su. ”

Her face flushed slightly, and she said earnestly: "It is a blessing for slaves and maids to be able to serve the little master. Slaves and maids must do their best. ”

I turned my head and called Azhu and said, "Take a pair of gold bracelets to reward Anshun people." He also asked Azhu to take the ingot gold ingots and give Su Xiaojin an additional reward.

Su Xiaojin came in flattered and thanked Ruyi respectfully, served me to rest, and went to take care of the trivial matters in the palace.

I just took a nap, and I still had a lazy meaning. Ruyi took the palace maids Xiang'er, Qing'er, Yanzi, and Chrysanthemum to serve me and get dressed and get up. The four of them are not very old, Xiang'er Qing'er looks like fourteen or fifteen, swallows and chrysanthemums are older, eighteen years old, and they follow Ruyi to learn the rules and learn to serve their masters, and they are also very clever.

After I finished dressing, Xiaodouzi, the inner supervisor, reported outside the door that Zhang Jieyu and Zhao Meiren came to see me.

Jieyu is the seventh grade, and the beauty is the eighth grade.

Zhang Jieyu has a slender figure, a long plump and enchanting, very beautiful, especially the nose, which is very beautiful. It's just that her expression between her eyebrows is a little lonely, and her life in the palace is not easy, but she is very polite to me, and even, a little flattering. Zhao Meiren is still young, only thirteen years old, petite, innocent, and childish on her face. Everyone greeted them very politely and sat down to drink tea.

Although Zhang Jieyu's status is lower than mine, she is older than me after all, and she entered the palace early, I was very polite to her, and called her "Sister Zhang" again and again, and let people take snacks to sit and eat together. Zhao Meiren was young, and she had just entered the palace, and she was still timid, so she asked her to change it to fresh milk tea, and gave her more sweets such as sugar packets, sugar cakes, fried dumplings, crisp seals, and hibiscus cakes. She was really happy, and after a while, she already called me "Sister Allure" very affectionately.

I really like her, and I feel kind when I think of the roses and roses in my home. When they got up to leave, I asked Xiang'er to bring her a bag of pastries.

Seeing that they had each returned to the dormitory, I said lightly to Ruyi: "Zhang Jieyu is indeed beautiful." ”

She was slightly stunned and immediately reacted. Glancing around very quickly, seeing that there was no one, Fang approached me and said, "Concubine Li's mother is both talented and beautiful, and she is the queen of the harem." I secretly praised her for being cautious in her words and deeds, although this sentence seems to be a bull's head and a horse's mouth, but I already know in my heart that Zhang Jieyu is indeed not favored.

No wonder she looked at me quite strangely, jealous mixed with anticipation, and her tone was very humble. Most of them are hoping that after I am favored, I can get a little bit of royal grace by living in the same house with me. I shook my head slightly, only feeling that she was pitiful, and I didn't want to think about her anymore.

Eating dinner alone, I saw Ruyi leading Qiushui Azhu to stand aside, although there was a palace maid standing outside the door, but the voice of the crow was not heard, and even the sound of heavier breathing could not be heard.

After finishing the meal, a little palace maid brought tea with a small black lacquer tea tray. Aunt Luo Xiang once said that the first cup of tea served after the palace meal was used to rinse the mouth to relieve the greasy mouth after eating. Sure enough, he brought a gargle to let me rinse my mouth, and then I served the tea I drank. I took a sip and said with a smile, "Don't take the food down yet." Don't stand still, just eat these dishes. Don't starve yourself to serve me. ”

A few people hurriedly thanked the favor and went to eat.

I walked into the warm pavilion by myself and rested, looking at the stone blue sprinkled flower chair on the opposite chair, my heart was at a loss, and I was disturbed as if the chair was embroidered with endless patterns.

Nothing was said all night.
