The host is cute and charming, who doesn’t love the charming wife?

"Today is the first day. You should clean the imperial garden for now. I will assign you other tasks tomorrow."

After saying this, Ruolan turned around and left without spending too much time on them.

As the aunt in charge, her power is much greater than one might imagine, and she has a lot to do.

If it weren't for the fact that this was the first time that His Majesty had selected palace maids since he ascended the throne this year, she wouldn't even spend any time on them.

It was said to be a selection of palace maids, but everyone with a bit of experience in the palace knew that this was the result of the "game" between that person and the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother wanted to select some beautiful ladies to fill her harem so that she could have grandchildren sooner.

However, the emperor was not very keen on women and rejected the empress dowager's suggestion on the grounds that he had just ascended the throne and did not want to make too much trouble.

The Queen Mother did not want to be alienated from her son because of this matter, so she had to take a step back. She released a group of old people from the palace on the pretext of something, and selected a group of new people to enter the palace as maids.

In fact, all the new palace maids are beautiful ladies with clean family backgrounds and pretty looks. This is the empress dowager's little idea.

She just couldn't believe it. Her son was so young and energetic. How could he not have any thoughts when there were so many young and beautiful women hanging around under his nose all day long?

Therefore, this batch of palace maids must be placed where His Majesty can see them, although it cannot be done very obviously, such as sending them directly to the Qianqing Palace.

But there are other places that must be taken.

Before this, Ruolan's task was to discover and cultivate beauties who might win the emperor's heart.

Thinking of what the Queen Mother had said to her, her mind couldn't help but think of a certain brainless beauty.

Although the beauty is stupid, her face is really impressive.

If His Majesty is a person who likes to look at faces, Ruolan will undoubtedly push this woman onto the dragon bed.

But unfortunately, the current emperor is a person who pays more attention to inner cultivation.

The palace maids who were admired and served by his side on a daily basis were all proficient in calligraphy and painting, and could read and write.

In the empty room, Ruolan couldn't hide her regret and sighed.

Ding Chu and his companions did not object to the order to clean the imperial garden and left directly.

Everyone did it very seriously.

Only one person's mind was not on cleaning at all.

"Hey, this flower is blooming beautifully, is it a rose?"

Ruan Miaomiao tilted her head and asked Xier, her eyes filled with curiosity and exploration.

However, after the incident with drinking water, Xier had gradually become immune to her words. She just said with a stern face: "No matter what kind of flower it is, it is not for you and me to touch! If you are lazy again, I will report to Aunt Ruolan and punish you by not allowing you to eat at night!"

Before she finished her words, she saw the person in front of her who was originally very interested widen his eyes in surprise, as if he could not accept what she said.

After staring for three seconds, Ruan Miaomiao realized that she was not just talking this time.

I had to reluctantly pick up the tools and start cleaning.

Although her family was not wealthy before, she was never asked to clean the house. At most, she just wiped things.

The hard work is done by others.

She came to the palace to marry a noble and live a good life, not to do such work as serving others.

But under the threat of dinner, even as stupid as she was she knew that she could only endure it temporarily.

"Hmph, just sweep it. It's just sweeping the floor. Don't I know how to do it..."

A certain woman's complaining voice was so low that only she could hear it.

But those puffy cheeks and the chest that rises and falls all show the owner's current anger.

At the edge of a pond not far away, a man dressed in the uniform of a eunuch happened to pass by and saw this scene.

The girl looked so frustrated that her eyes turned red, which made her look particularly adorable.

"What's wrong, Eunuch Zi'an?"

The young eunuch followed his gaze but saw nothing.

Mu Zian calmly withdrew his gaze and said calmly: "It's nothing, let's go quickly, don't waste time, otherwise neither you nor I can bear it."

As the current emperor's personal steward, Mu Zian entered the palace at a young age and was assigned to be by the emperor's side.

Along the way, he has smoothly ascended to the position of the number one eunuch today.

Others envy his luck, but few know that he faces a difficult situation every day as he is caught between two big shots.

Like this time, neither of them was too embarrassed to talk, so anything they said could only be conveyed through him as the middleman.

His voice was neither hurried nor slow, but it made the hair of the young eunuch beside him, who was familiar with him, stand up.

He lowered his head quickly, "Yes!"

When leaving the Imperial Garden, Mu Zian couldn't help but look back at the place where the woman had originally stood.

Although he had disappeared, he seemed to be able to recall the scene he had just seen.

Then he slowly shook his head in his heart, feeling strange about his own abnormality.

……

Of course it was impossible for Ruan Miaomiao to really clean the imperial garden seriously. When Xier turned around and couldn't see her anymore, she immediately rubbed her shoulders to relieve her stiff shoulders.

Once she stopped, she couldn't move anymore.

Even if they clean, they just do it in a perfunctory manner.

But what she didn't know was that all of this was seen by others.

The person who was observing secretly reported everyone's performance to Aunt Ruolan one by one. After listening to what the subordinates said, Ruolan became more certain that Ruan Miaomiao was not the type that the emperor would like.

If such a person with an empty brain, greedy and lazy is pushed forward, it would be fine if the emperor likes her, but if he doesn't, the empress dowager will definitely think that she is not doing her best.

She silently crossed the person off the list of candidates and turned her attention to other candidates.

These days, Ruan Miaomiao and her friends were either cleaning the imperial garden or pruning branches in some remote places.

Not to mention Ruan Miaomiao, even some of the other people began to become restless.

After all, except for the first morning meal which was pretty good, to be honest, I didn’t think the food after that was delicious.

The imperial chefs serve the nobles.

Palace maids like them would never be able to eat the food prepared by the imperial chef unless they were rewarded by their superiors.

They seemed to be ignored, and no wonder they started complaining about life in the palace.

Among them, Ding Chu completed her job diligently and conscientiously. Not only that, she also comforted her companions who began to miss their home and relatives.

"Okay, okay, now that we have entered the palace, we must learn to look forward..."

Ding Chu's lips curved into an almost invisible arc as he caught a glimpse of the disappearing reflection at the door.
