"It's strange, why did you ask Eunuch Chang to do such a trivial thing of serving tea and water today? What about the other people in the palace? Are they all lazy?"

Liu Sui'er has only been in Zhaoyang Palace for three months, but because of her cheerful disposition, cleverness, and good at flattering people, there are very few people around who have a gap with her.Even Wen Mu, because of her status and the fact that she was a person close to the Empress Dowager, treated her very politely.

So, there were troublesome people talking behind her back, calling her and Chang Xiu the second treasure of Zhaoyang Palace, but Chang Xiu was more in awe of this girl who was as famous as him.

"But I don't know. There is no one when I go out. Anyway, there is nothing to do with His Highness at the moment, so I brought it out by myself. Besides, it is all about serving people, so there is no distinction between what can be done and what can't be done." Yes!" Facing the smiling Liu Sui'er, Chang Xiu also had a faint smile on her face.

No, upon hearing this, Liu Sui'er snatched the tray from his hand and smiled more eagerly.

"Let me do this kind of trivial matter. It just so happens that no one has gone to collect the reward from Zhonggong's hair. Auntie is worried about the work of the subordinates. I originally asked me to take people there to get it, but you also know that my newcomer I'm not familiar with the place, and I haven't dealt with people in the middle palace. You say you can do anything, and you happen to be free, so just be a good person and run for me."

Seeing that her hands were empty, Chang Xiu couldn't help feeling helpless.Perhaps things will turn against each other, it is said that Liu Sui'er was not in good health at first, but now that she has recovered her health in the palace, she will not be quiet for a while, and she always does things in a hurry.Although he didn't feel disgusted, he still felt that this girl was a bit too lively, except that she was taller, he couldn't tell that she was three years older than himself.

Chang Xiu has always been a quiet person, because of conflicting temperaments, and knowing that Liu Sui'er's identity is different from ordinary court ladies, she has always been more polite to her, and rarely takes the initiative to deal with her.

It's just that Liu Sui'er didn't know whether she was acquainted with others or she liked Chang Xiu very much. The more polite Chang Xiu was to her, the more she loved to find Chang Xiu, which made the rumor of "the second treasure of Zhaoyang Palace" spread even more. What's more, Chang Xiu herself often smiles wryly.

Although Liu Sui'er is the number one servant under the aunt's name, and it's hard to say who's in the top position when they date, but since the eunuchs and court ladies have their own respective affiliations, we shouldn't be in such frequent contact with each other. .Just thinking about it, he couldn't do anything about Liu Sui'er's uninvited visits on weekdays. He said it cryptically twice, but she didn't know if she didn't understand or what, but she just stayed the same. This can only be done.

The aunt Liu Suier mentioned was Wu Shanggong, the female official in charge of Zhaoyang Palace. Unlike Li Da, the chief eunuch who was in charge of Zhaoyang Palace, Wu Shanggong was personally appointed by Concubine Xiao to be in charge of Zhaoyang Palace. As an aunt, she naturally has a different majesty.

Although the court ladies and eunuchs are not related to each other, and Chang Xiu is one of the two chief eunuchs in the Zhaoyang Palace, as the fifth prince's personal chief eunuch, she should not care about chores, and it will be even easier when she can talk to Wu Shanggong. few.But because the fifth prince didn't like Li Da, the eunuch in charge, he often handed over things to Chang Xiu to handle. In this way, he also had more handovers with Wu Shanggong.

Concubine Xiao is of high rank, and Chang Xiu herself is young, so even though she is a celebrity in front of the fifth prince, in front of Wu Shanggong, he still has to be courteous. Auntie.

"You dare to procrastinate on the matter that my aunt gave you, and let others do it for you..." In the end, Chang Xiu didn't know what to say about Liu Sui'er. So easily accepted the errand of others.

The reward from the middle palace was given by the Empress Empress for adopting the fourth prince, and every palace had it, but he didn't know that the reward had been given out for two or three days, and they had been giving it away all the time. No one went to pick it up.

"I know little Eunuch Chang is the best. I beg you to help me run this trip. I am grateful to you. You can leave it to me to serve the dishes!" Liu Sui'er said, holding her hand The plate ran away in a hurry, leaving only Chang Xiu standing there, looking at her figure helplessly and shaking her head.

Although she said it was Liu Sui'er's fault, she saw that the person had gone away, thinking that she had nothing to do at the moment, and that His Highness didn't need anyone to serve her for the time being, Chang Xiu finally decided to be a good person again, so she went to the deputy The palace called two handy eunuchs, and they went to the middle palace with him.

In the study, after Wen Mu and Chang Xiu chatted for a while, they turned their heads to concentrate on reading, when suddenly there was a person standing beside him, he looked up, but it was Liu Sui'er standing beside him with a plate of fruit, as if not Dare to come forward to disturb.He was a little displeased and a little strange, but he thought that Liu Sui'er was not always around to serve after all, he didn't know the rules, and his status was different from that of an ordinary court lady, so he changed his expression and said with a smile: "Why do you send the dishes?" I want you to do it yourself, what about the people below?"

Liu Sui'er put the plate on the side of the desk, turned her head and said with a light smile: "The servant girl is no better than Xiao Xiuzi, these things of bringing tea, water, and handing fruit plates are naturally the servant girl."

"These words are nonsensical. In this palace, apart from Wu Shanggong, I don't know who else is of higher rank than you? You are also from an official family. Is it possible that there is no one here who dares to say that you are not?" gone?"

Since Liu Sui'er came to Zhaoyang Hall, at the beginning, she acted cautiously, for fear of making a mistake somewhere.After discovering that the fifth prince's temperament is not strict, and can even be said to be a little casual, her laughing and quarrelsome temperament gradually became apparent.Wen Mu is not a rigid person, besides, teenagers who are not too young don't like to be too quiet, so most of the time, she is allowed to laugh and make fun of her.Wu Shanggong knew that this was the person left by Concubine Xiao Gui to the fifth prince, as long as she was not too outrageous, the discipline on her would not be so strict.In this way, sometimes, Liu Sui'er even dared to tell some miscellaneous jokes with Wen Mu.

"The ones from the official family are comparable to the ones from the noble family in the palace? Why don't they all serve the master?" After hearing what Wen Mu said, Liu Sui'er replied with a sly face.

"I forgot, when it comes to gossip in this palace, no one can compare to you." Wen Mu chuckled lightly and didn't care, "I'm just surprised that I don't see you at this time on weekdays, and it's rare to see you come over in the afternoon."

"Slave maid seems so lazy," Liu Sui'er pursed her lips, and was about to speak, when she suddenly yelled "Aiya".

She covered her mouth, looked at Wen Mu nervously, and said, "It's the master talking to the servant, who made the servant forget about the business. When I came in with the plate just now, I met the lady who sent me over at the door." People. The empress sent a message, saying to let the master go over, and the master interrupted, and the words of the servants were taken to the sky."

Wen Mu laughed, and had nothing to say to Liu Sui'er who had a coquettish expression, so he could only stand up and say, "Okay, you won't be considered a dereliction of duty if your words are heard, even if the master interrupts you, you can't say anything." It doesn't matter."

Liu Sui'er was still about to speak, but heard Mu asked again: "By the way, have you seen Hanxiu, let him come and wait for me to go to Feixia Hall."

After hearing this, Liu Sui'er tilted her head and thought for a while, then opened her big bright eyes, looked at Wen Mu curiously, and asked, "Why do you have to serve Xiao Xiuzi, can't others? Isn't it Xiao Xiuzi?" Serving people, is it better than others?"

"Your words are even more strange. He has always been the one who waits in front of you. If you don't call him, who else will you call him?" Wen Mu also tilted his head to look at her.

Liu Sui'er heard this, and frowned, before hesitatingly said after a while, "But he...isn't here right now."

"Not here?" Wen Mu was a little strange, and looked at Liu Sui'er intently, Fang asked, "Where can he go at this time?"

"That..." Without answering Wen Mu's question, Liu Sui'er's face slowly lowered.

"Which one?" Wen Mu frowned slightly, looking at her drooping head, his words were filled with impatience, "It's rare for you to speak so bluntly."

"That..." Liu Sui'er quietly raised her head, but seeing that Mu Mu's eyes were still staring at her, she curled her lips and said, "That... the middle palace asked someone to go to collect the reward, saying that it was from the other places. It's almost finished, the Second Highness moved quickly, and now I have personally gone to the Zhonggong to thank you, but we haven't heard anything yet, the servant girl told Chang Xiu, so Chang Xiu took someone to the Zhonggong to receive the reward gone."

Hearing this, Wen Mu frowned slightly, and was about to say something, but suddenly stopped, and then he said to Liu Sui'er: "Hanxiu is not here, so it's the same if you are serving in front of me, and you are also on the side of the empress. Yes, it's okay to come with me to see the empress."

Liu Sui'er listened, first sticking out her tongue lightly, then her expression changed, she bowed and replied: "Your servant obeys!"

Wen Mu took Liu Sui'er to Feixia Palace, but saw Concubine Xiao was sitting on the inner couch with an angry face, Liu Shangyi next to her seemed to be explaining, and Hongyu on the other side saw that it wasn't Chang Xiu who followed him, but It was strange for a while, and after regaining consciousness, he gave him another wink.

Wen Mu is also a smart person, he knew at a glance that Concubine Xiao Gui had been furious for a while, so he stepped forward with a smile, bowed and said: "Mu'er greets your mother, but your mother is angry with Mu'er." You're late? Mu'er heard the mother's order, but almost trotted over here."

When Concubine Xiao saw Wen Mu, she turned pale just now, she waved to Wen Mu, and said: "Come quickly and let Mother Concubine take a look, but you are so old, and you still tell these jokes all day long."

When Wen Mu heard the words, he stepped forward and sat leaning against Concubine Xiao Gui.He put his arms around Xiao Guifei's arm, but said with a smile: "I'm not joking, I know that the empress must have something important to call the child over at this time, and besides, I haven't seen the empress for a few days, so I'm really thinking about it. Move freely, this step is naturally much faster than usual."

Concubine Xiao Gui also smiled when she heard it, and said: "I only come here to make your concubine mother happy, if you really think about concubine mother, why haven't you come here for three, five or seven days?"

Wen Mu just stuck out his tongue and made a miserable expression, "Your Majesty, I don't know, these days, the father is watching our homework closely, and often brings us some notes from the ministers. Doing school, my boy wished he could be an envoy for two people, and the empress would use words to run on my boy."

Seeing Concubine Xiao's words, Wen Mu frowned slightly, knowing that Concubine Xiao's preoccupation today must have something to do with the Emperor and Prince.Otherwise, if in the past, the imperial concubine would only frown and smile when she heard that the emperor had tested their homework, how could she be like today, with her brows furrowed, the corners of her mouth tightly pursed, and there was even a bit of anger between her brows and eyes.

Sure enough, later he heard Concubine Xiao say: "Your father has acquired a new prince in the middle palace recently, so naturally he should pay more attention to you."

There was obviously some sarcasm in the words, before Wen Mu could answer, she looked down at Liu Sui'er again, and said with a smile: "Liu Sui'er has not seen her for a while, and I heard people say a few days ago, Your father is able to do things well and has been rewarded by the emperor, I am afraid that you will not stay in this palace for long."

After speaking, she sighed again, and said: "After all, she is a lady of an official family, and she will go out eventually. It's a pity... It is rare for the fifth prince to have a considerate person."

Hearing Concubine Xiao Gui's words, Liu Sui'er immediately knelt down, bowed her head and said: "It is a blessing for a servant to be able to serve in front of your empress and Your Highness, even if the father wants the servant to go back, I'm afraid it will be a blessing for the servant. Well, the servants absolutely dare not think of this. The servants only hope that they can always serve the empress, His Highness's side, and the father's side, and hope that the empress will talk about it."

Looking down at Liu Sui'er who was lying on the ground, Concubine Xiao Gui's brows that had been frowning before were relieved a little, she smiled and said: "It's not in vain for the Empress Dowager to praise you at the beginning, since you Having said that myself, then I will serve the Fifth Prince well from now on. If you ever want to go out, just tell me, and I will make the decision for you."

After a pause, she said again: "Speaking of which, you haven't been here for some time. You have always been friends with Lu Chang, so go and play with her!"

After hearing this, Liu Sui'er and Lu Chang, who was standing below Liu Shangyi, thanked each other for their kindness, and then went out of the inner room hand in hand.After that, Concubine Xiao sent all the other palace servants away, leaving only Liu Shangyi to serve nearby.
