Rebirth: Qingying comes back to reorganize the harem

5 When Su Mei had almost finished crying, Bai Ruiji dusted herself off out of boredom, then she asked patiently:

"Su Mei, tell me, I also climbed up step by step from the bottom of the palace. Naturally, I understand your suffering. If you tell me, if I can help you, I will naturally help you, just as if I am accumulating blessings for myself. Hmm?"

Su Mei raised her eyes and looked at the look in Bai Ruiji's eyes. Although she didn't know whether this noble person in front of her would help her or not, she was the only person who would lend a helping hand to her at the moment.

Su Mei lowered her head and said nothing, she just rolled up her sleeves. What came into view were wounds of varying sizes, some of which had already scabbed over, while others were obviously new wounds, and even snow was still oozing out.

Although Bai Ruiji had been abused by others when she was in Yuefu, she had never been bullied like this.

Bai Ruiji's eyes flashed with pity, and she coughed softly and said

"Hey, I'll ask Mingyue to get you some ointment to heal your wounds. You can take it back and apply it on yourself. But there are some things I want to say, but I don't know if you will realize it. I have no relationship with you, but I gave you some ointment because I felt sorry for you. However, your mistress in public is unwilling to give you any benefits. It's really pitiful that you are still working for her."

Bai Ruiji looked at Su Mei who was still struggling, and did not continue to ask. If she was busy, she could let others kneel on the ground and beg for help, but she should never rush to help others.

After all, his original intention of coming to this harem was to disrupt it. Besides, he couldn't stand Fu Cha Langya, the arrogant woman in the Yanxi Palace. If she didn't live well, he could make fun of her behind her back.

On this side, Sanbao had just come out of the cold palace after delivering food, clothing, and daily necessities when he saw Concubine Bai from the palace sneaking out of a side hall of the cold palace.

Sanbao has always been a gossiper, so upon seeing this, he immediately squatted in the bushes nearby, looking outside cautiously, fearing that his whereabouts would be discovered by others.

Fortunately, Sanbao hid in time, and Bai Ruiji did not notice anything unusual and left in a hurry. Just when Sanbao was about to get up and go to that room to look for clues, he saw Sumei running out of the room in a panic.

This series of actions confused Sanbao. Sumei was a maid in the Yanxi Palace, and now she was actually hooking up with Concubine Bai in the palace. The more Sanbao thought about it, the more he felt that this information was extremely important. He quickly rolled up his trouser legs, raised his head and ran towards the Changchun Palace with big strides.

Inside Changchun Palace

Since Ruyi was reborn, she would ask the servants around her to go to the cold palace every month to deliver the salaries that should have belonged to them. This could be regarded as a way of repaying those people for their help to her when she lived in the cold palace in her previous life.

Gao Xiyue and Hai Lan came to Changchun Palace early today to guard Ruyi. Gao Xiyue's father said that they encountered an extremely rare white peacock outside. Now the two of them were guarding the courtyard of Changchun Palace and fighting peacocks with the children.

Ruyi looked at the two people who were instigating the children to guess which peacock would be the final winner, and for a moment she didn't know who was the adult and who was the child.

At this time, Sanbao rushed in from outside. The two peacocks were frightened by Sanbao and ran around everywhere. Gao Xiyue and Hailan hurriedly ran back with the children. The scene was so chaotic that even the peacocks' feathers were flying around.

When Sanbao ran to Ruyi, he saw the mess in the yard because of him, and knelt aside awkwardly. For a moment, he didn't know whether he should continue to report or confess his crime first.

Ruyi knew that Sanbao was not such a person who would act without rules, so she did not blame him too much. She just smiled softly at Sanbao.

"Sanbao, why are you running so hurriedly today? Is there something chasing you? If you offend some powerful person while listening to gossip outside, I can't protect you."

"Yes, Sanbao, what are you doing in such a hurry? You scared away my peacock."

Gao Xiyue hugged Jingfu with one hand and held Jingsi with the other, and walked towards Ruyi happily.

Although Gao Xiyue said some disparaging words to Sanbao, her face revealed the joy of eating melon.

After all, every time Sanbao came back from outside in a hurry, it meant that there was more gossip to hear.

"Master, when I just came out of the cold palace, I saw Su Mei, the maid of Consort Xian of Yanxi Palace, secretly plotting something with Consort Bai in the palace. But I am really useless. When I rushed over, they had already left. I don't know what they were plotting."

Ruyi looked at Sanbao's twisted and curious look and casually ordered:

"Nothing, I'll leave this matter to you to find out. If you find out anything, I'll let you go out to visit your family when I go on my southern tour."

A look of surprise flashed across Sanbao's eyes, followed by ecstasy. He had mentioned to his master a few years ago that he had a younger brother and sister outside. However, his master had been very kind to him over the years and sent all of his monthly salary back home, so that even his younger brothers and sisters at home had the opportunity to go to school.

I originally thought that I would be content to serve in the palace all my life, but I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to go home in person.

Sanbao was so excited that he knelt on the ground and said in a tearful voice

"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master!"

In the end, Ruyi couldn't bear it anymore and let惢心 and Lianxin drive Sanbao away.

Even from a distance, Ruyi could still hear Sanbao's joyful voice.

……

Gao Xiyue leaned on the table with her chin in her hand, looking at Ruyi, then at Hailan who was concentrating on embroidering a handkerchief beside her, but her heart was still thinking about the gossip that Sanbao had just told her.

Su Mei had been pointed out by Fu Cha Langya to be the eunuch around the emperor half a year ago. If she encountered any difficulties, she would not go to her master, but complain to the concubines in the harem who were not on good terms with her master. Gao Xiyue thought that there must be something serious going on.

However, Gao Xiyue looked at her sister, the Queen, who looked calm, and after thinking it over again and again, she finally threw herself forward and threw herself directly into Ruyi's arms.

Ruyi was caught off guard by the attack. While screaming, she still subconsciously hugged Gao Xiyue to prevent her from falling down.

Gao Xiyue looked up at Ruyi with sparkling eyes, grabbed Ruyi's collar with her hand, swung it slightly, and said coquettishly

"Sister Queen, do you know something? Yes, Hailan wants to know too!"

Gao Xiyue looked at Ruyi's face full of disbelief, and quickly pointed at Hailan, who was embroidering a handkerchief beside her. After being called by Gao Xiyue, she looked in the direction of Ruyi and the others.

Ruyi looked at the two little sisters who were looking at her with their big watery eyes with amusement, frowned and said

"Actually, it's nothing. It's just that Su Mei has been tortured since she married Wang Qin. She wanted to return to Yanxi Palace to continue serving her master, but her master didn't seem to care about her life. So, Su Mei had to find another way out."

Gao Xiyue listened seriously, even more attentively than usual when Ruyi asked her to look at the palace accounts.

Ruyi looked at Gao Xiyue, who was so serious that she couldn't be more serious. For a moment, she didn't know whether to laugh or be angry. In the end, she could only poke Gao Xiyue's forehead helplessly and sighed.

"You guys, these are the only things that can arouse your interest. Xiyue, you are the imperial concubine, so you should help me take a good look at the affairs in the palace in the future. You can also help me share the palace affairs."

When talking about looking at the palace account books and managing palace affairs, Gao Xiyue couldn't help but shrink her neck. She didn't know where to put her hands for a moment because of awkwardness. Finally, she pretended that she hadn't heard anything and ran to discuss with Hailan what embroidery pattern would be best for these handkerchiefs.
