After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

Liu Yunxiang returned to Luohan Palace. The Queen Mother went to bed early and had already rested. Aunt Su called her to her side and asked her what was going on in Feifeng Palace.

She was so flustered that she didn't dare to hide anything, so she told everything.

After hearing this, Aunt Su turned a little green, "Why did you happen to meet me!"

"Mommy, is this slave wrong?" she asked.

"Remember, there is no right or wrong, no right or wrong in this palace." After saying that, she sighed again and looked at the night sky: "Tonight someone in this palace will cry out for injustice again, but what's the use of calling out for injustice, when you don't have to protect yourself. When you are not capable, you can only be a pawn in the hands of others, and you have to give up when you need to."

Liu Yunxiang was sent back to the annex of the outer palace. This was where the maids of the Luohan Palace who took personal care of the Queen Mother lived. It was a large room with a large shop inside.

Because Liu Yunxiang was new here, he slept near the door.

The bedding was left by the previous palace maid. It was relatively clean, but it was heavy, cold, and had a musty smell.

Liu Yunxiang couldn't stand the smell and sat against the wall all night.

Early the next morning, the palace maid sleeping next to her, named Wei Qing, rolled her eyes and said, "You entered the palace to be a slave, not a master, so why are you so pretentious!"

Liu Yunxiang caught a cold, and felt uncomfortable all over his body. He was scolded by the palace maid, and his head hurt even more.

At this time, another palace maid named Wanyi walked out with a washbasin. When she passed her, she said to her: "She is like this, don't worry, you will definitely not get used to it at first, but you will get better slowly." . Take the washbasin and come with me to fetch water. After you have washed yourself, you have to go into the inner hall to wait on me."

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "Thank you."

She followed Wanyi out of the side room and realized that it was still dark, with only a faint light in the east. You have to queue up to get water, and people jump in line from time to time.

Wanyi whispered: "These are either those in charge, or those who are favored by the master. We dare not argue with them."

When they were almost in line, Na Weiqing also cut in front of them.

Wanyi said angrily: "Why are you so anxious?"

Wei Qing snorted, "I have to comb the Queen Mother's hair. It's okay for you to be late, but I can't be late."

With that said, Na Weiqing fetched some water and left first.

Wanyi and Liu Yunxiang fetched water together, and when they returned, they told her: "No one dares to be late. If you are late, you will be fined a monthly fee, or you will be beaten. Wei Qing is the niece of the aunt in charge, so we are not easy to mess with. she."

Wanyi told her a lot, and Liu Yunxiang remembered them all.

Arriving at the inner hall, when the Queen Mother got up, the maids filed in carrying tools for gargling mouths, combing hair, various powders and facial oils, beaded hair and face, clothes and shoes, etc.

Liu Yunxiang was holding a tray with some headdresses on it, such as gold steps, gold hairpins inlaid with beads and emeralds, emerald headbands inlaid with rubies, etc.

When she came forward, the Queen Mother had already combed her hair and was putting on a tiara.

Wei Qing smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you look really good today, so wear this hairpin. Although you are simple, you don't like luxury."

The Queen Mother smiled: "I didn't sleep well last night, but you can see that I look better."

Wei Qing didn't know why this sentence was wrong, but she recognized the look and hurriedly stepped aside with her head lowered.

The Queen Mother glanced at Liu Yunxiang and said, "Which one do you think I will wear today?"

Liu Yunxiang thought for a moment and said: "This set of phoenix crowns is almost covered with dust."

Wei Qing secretly sneered and said that the Queen Mother's phoenix crown was almost covered in dust. This newcomer really had no rules. You will know later what it means to have trouble come out of your mouth.

The Queen Mother laughed, "Don't let it get dusty, just wear it today."

Liu Yunxiang stepped forward and carefully put the phoenix crown on the Queen Mother's head. Hui's concubine's affairs will definitely make waves today. The harem is a place where women compete, and the Queen Mother has to hold the line, so she picked a phoenix crown for her.

The queen is the head of the harem, but she also has the queen mother above her.

The Queen Mother asked her to help her stand up, "Are you used to living and eating in the palace?"

"Not very used to it."

"If you're not used to it, just tell Aunt Jiang, lest anyone fool around in front of me and say that I've treated you badly."

"Yes."

During breakfast, the Queen Mother also asked Liu Yunxiang to serve her. Wei Qing and others could only queue at the back. She felt very uncomfortable. She didn't understand how she could not be as good as a newcomer even though she was serving her wholeheartedly and trying her best to please the Queen Mother.

After breakfast, the emperor came to say hello and spoke for a while in the inner hall. Then the mother and son left together.

The Queen Mother and her entourage did not return until almost noon. The Queen Mother looked very unhappy. After returning to the inner hall, lunch was not even handed out.

Liu Yunxiang followed Wan Yi to the lower room for dinner, and she whispered to her: "Did you know that Hui Bin was almost killed last night?"

"Uh……"

"It is said that the good concubine harmed her!"

"Good concubine?"

"The good concubine is a good person in the palace. She has a kind-hearted nature and doesn't fight or rob. How could she harm concubine Hui? Anyway, a palace maid saw it with her own eyes and there is no room for sophistry."

Wanyi was talking to herself, and the more she talked, the worse her face became.

"The emperor was furious. He originally wanted to kill the good concubine with a cane. Fortunately, the queen mother interceded, so she only broke her legs and threw her into the cold palace. But she was not allowed to see the imperial doctor. Tsk, tsk, a place like the cold palace is cold and damp everywhere, and it is not human at all. I'm afraid this good concubine won't live long."

Liu Yunxiang was shocked. She interrupted Wanyi and asked carefully, only to find out that this good concubine was the one who went to pay respects to the queen with Jin You last night.

The queen obviously wanted to blame this disaster on Jin You, but why did it fall on the good concubine?

After lunch, Liu Yunxiang returned to the inner hall and saw Jin You kneeling outside the hall.

Nanny Su came out of it at this time and said with a deep breath: "The Queen Mother is tired of saying that she doesn't see anyone. Please come back, Princess Jin."

"Aunt Su, please go in and beg for mercy from the Queen Mother. Jin You doesn't dare to disturb her purity. She just wants to ask the doctor to treat her leg for sister Liang Fei." Jin You begged sincerely.

Aunt Su's face became solemn, "Why are you making things difficult for the Queen Mother!"

Seeing that Aunt Su refused to send any more messages, Jin Fei kowtowed outside the palace and shouted inside: "Queen Mother, Jin You, please, Sister Liang Fei is a good person, she cannot die!"

The little golden concubine shouted sincerely and with a crying tone, and many of the maids and eunuchs in Luohan Palace lowered their heads and wiped away tears.

"The good concubine has a kind heart. No one has ever been kind to her. How could such a good person harm others?"

"Yes, she must have been wronged by someone."

"Whoever is so vicious will suffer retribution sooner or later."

"Little Concubine Jin is still very affectionate and righteous, so she is the only one who dares to intercede for Concubine Liang at this time."

Listening to the whispers of these palace maids and eunuchs, Liu Yunxiang always felt that something was about to happen.

After all, the little golden concubine did not ask the Queen Mother to come out. She couldn't stand up from crying, but the palace maid next to her helped her up.

Liu Yunxiang stood at the door with his head lowered, thinking that Jin You would walk over directly. After all, she knew her now, but she stopped in front of her.

"Head up!"

Liu Yunxiang paused and slowly raised his head.

Little Jin Fei narrowed her eyes and said, "It really looks very similar."

"..."

Did she recognize her?

But they have never met...

The next moment, Jin You suddenly raised his hand and slapped him.

With a snap, all the palace maids and eunuchs looked over.

Liu Yunxiang was a little confused for a moment, but Concubine Jin started to cry.

"This slap is given to you by me on behalf of Sister Liangfei!"
