Chapter 4: Life in the palace like walking on thin ice
Mo Yan smiled lightly and said jokingly, "My curiosity is not important, you will definitely tell me anyway."
Ruyi is dedicated to serving Aunt Liu. Aunt Liu also likes her innocence, so she sometimes takes her with her when going out to socialize.
She was the quickest to keep tabs on some news from the palace. Whenever there was any news from the palace, she would tell Mo Yan immediately.
And that information is very important for survival in the palace.
"Let me tell you, do you know who is here for Aunt Li's birthday?" Ruyi knew that Moyan would not ask, so she continued proudly, "Jinhe is also here. She said that Ning Shuyi is pregnant with the emperor's descendant.
"
Moyan's hand paused, and a dark light flashed in his eyes
Ning Shuyi finally got her wish and was able to get pregnant. I'm afraid she must have tried so many methods.
Does this mean that she is safer?
In the past two years, the emperor has been favoring her so much that no one can understand. Speaking of youth, many of the new show girls who came in this year are young and beautiful, but none of them stand out in the emperor's mind. When it comes to beauty, there are more than just beauties in the harem.
She is the only one; when it comes to background, which concubine is not a bit powerful; when it comes to intelligence, all the women in this harem are human beings...
Ru Jingyu stopped silently, thinking that she was interested in this topic, and determined to tell all the news he heard, "The emperor was so happy that he not only rewarded Ning Shuyi with many things, but also agreed to let her choose by herself.
Several palace ladies came to Jinhua Palace. Sister Jinhe said that most of the maids in our syringe room are as meticulous as dust. The empress asked Aunt Liu to pick a few of them."
Pick someone over?
Why not choose from the new maids?
A bad thought flashed through her mind. She wanted to grasp it, but she couldn't grasp the point.
Moyan raised her head and asked with interest, "What did Auntie say?"
Ruyi said excitedly, "After Sister Jinhe left, everyone was fawning over Aunt Liu. Who doesn't want to find a good master in the palace so that they can live a life with their heads held high in the palace? The syringe room is not outstanding no matter what."
Day, who is willing to stay here as a last resort, don’t you think so, sister Moyan?”
Mo Yan smiled lightly. When did this girl learn to think about these things? She didn't just learn what Aunt Liu said.
She thought for a while and said to the girl, "The work in the syringe room is a bit harder, but it is also far away from right and wrong. The days in the palace are so long, as long as we get over peacefully, we can't afford those vanities."
Ruyi didn't understand what she said, "We have lived so hard, are you willing to do it? Sister Jinhe is so good. When she waits beside the empress, even the young masters have to respect her. She really has a lot of face.
I’m so envious, it would be great if I could be by your side.”
There is a price to pay for being silent and finding a good master.
On the night she and the emperor were together, apart from her, several other maids in the Jinhua Palace died inexplicably.
She understood why those little palace maids died, but she just didn't understand why Ning Shuyi didn't just kill her. Could it be that she was still valuable to Ning Shuyi?
Ruyi snatched the needle and thread from her hand, hugged her neck, and said coquettishly, "Sister Moyan, why don't you plead with Aunt Liu and write my name on it too?"
She silently advised, "Girl, Aunt Liu loves you so much. With her protection, you will live a happier life."
