Chapter 19 High Salary Tempts Workers

Eunuch Li and his companions were very familiar with the process, so as soon as the emperor fainted, they helped him to bed.

An Jiu couldn't help. She was sleepy and wanted to go back to her room to sleep, but the jade pendant in her hand was a little hot.

After all, this is the emperor's personal belongings, it is definitely not okay to just take it away like that.

Fortunately, Eunuch Li and his men finished their work quickly. An Jiu followed them out and took out the jade pendant and asked, "Eunuch, what should we do?"

Eunuch Li took a look, smiled and said, "Your Majesty gave it to you, so take it."

An Jiu: "I don't dare to ask for it..."

She really didn't dare. What if the Dog Emperor woke up tomorrow and found that the jade pendant was missing and wanted to catch her as a "thief", who would she go to for justice?

"Take it if you give it to me, otherwise His Majesty will be unhappy if he doesn't see it."

Eunuch Li had no idea what the emperor was doing, but he knew that he could not disobey the tyrant, otherwise he would really take a knife and chop people without showing any mercy.

An Jiu could only take it. Aunt Qu who had escaped also came at this time. An Jiu was quite familiar with her and briefly told her about the jade pendant. Aunt Qu was a little surprised and she suddenly smiled.

"You should take what His Majesty gives you."

After saying that, she called Anjiu to her side and asked her what dishes to cook tomorrow night, what ingredients to prepare, and also asked Anjiu if there was anything he needed.

An Jiu pointed at his shoes...

Aunt Qu looked down and saw two large black footprints on An Jiu's light-colored shoes...

Aunt Qu: "..."

"I'll have someone send new shoes over tomorrow."

The Ministry of Internal Affairs would issue shoes, and some palace maids would make them themselves, but An Jiu didn’t know how to make them, and she only had one pair, so after washing it, she would have nothing to wear…

The shoes were stepped on by the dog emperor, so he must pay for it.

An Jiu yawned and went back to sleep.

Working people are so pitiful.

Xiaohua was still unconscious, and Anjiu secretly took out the jade pendant to look at it.

It is white, crystal clear, and feels warm to the touch. It is carved with a dragon. It is hard to describe, but it is obviously a good thing and should be worth a lot of money. I just don’t know if the emperor’s things can be sold...

An Jiu put his things away and slept soundly.

In the morning, she was woken up by her roommates. The two palace maids, Qiu and Dong, also looked very tired.

Come to think of it, Anjiu didn't see the two of them in Guanghua Palace last night...

In other words, the only ones on night watch were Eunuch Li and his apprentice, while the other palace maids were assigned to other places.

In a few days it will be his turn to keep watch, and An Jiu is quite looking forward to it. At least he won’t have to work day and night.

She quickly washed, packed up and went out.

The weather is a little cooler today, so Aunt Qu prepared thicker clothes for the emperor.

Maybe because he had eaten a lot yesterday, the emperor was in a good mood. After he came back from the morning court, he was dazed for a while and asked Eunuch Li to prepare things as he wanted to paint.

Because An Jiu didn't sleep well, she dozed off against the pillar. When she woke up again, the emperor had already started painting, and Eunuch Li asked her to come over and grind the ink.

She didn't know if it was an illusion, but An Jiu felt that Eunuch Li was particularly enthusiastic towards her today, and his attitude was 180 degrees better.

An Jiu stood beside the emperor, grinding ink and watching him paint.

I thought he was going to draw flowers, birds, insects, fish or something, but who would have thought that he would just draw a row of candied haws on the fine drawing paper.

Eunuch Li smiled with curved eyebrows. I don't know what the eunuchs' aesthetics are. Eunuch Li painted his face very white, and also put on lipstick and blush. When he smiled, it was very strange. He asked knowingly with a pinched voice: "Your Majesty, what is this?"

An Jiu also wanted to know this question.

Does the emperor have any memory of last night?

Why did he draw last night's candied haws...

An Jiu's hands trembled.

The emperor said: "I dreamed of eating this candy yesterday."

Anjiu saw him licking his lips.

Eunuch Li was not surprised and continued to pick up the food: "Really? Your Majesty, do you want to eat more? If you do, let me..."

He pretended to look around and his eyes fell on An Jiu: "Can Xiao Jiu do it?"

An Jiu almost laughed out loud: "I know a little bit."

Eunuch Li said, "Then go to the kitchen and make some for His Majesty."

"yes."

An Jiu walked out with his head down, and then heard the emperor's voice.

[Hey? My jade pendant seems to be missing? ]

[Where did you lose it? ]

[I quite like that jade pendant...]

An Jiu "..."

You are such a dog.

real.

An Jiu resigned herself to her fate and went out. When Aunt Qu asked her where she was going, she told her what the emperor meant.

Aunt Qu nodded: "I'll go with you."

So the two of them came to the kitchen, and after driving everyone away, An Jiu started making candies.

Aunt Qu stood by and watched. No one knew what she was looking at, but it gave Anjiu goosebumps. She suddenly asked, "Xiaojiu, do you think this palace is good?"

OK?

It depends on who you are targeting.

For the master, it's good, but as for the servants...

Hahaha…

Two jobs, one salary, and life-threatening situation, what do you think?

"Aunt, why do you ask that?" An Jiu did not answer, because she knew that when the leader asks you whether your company is good or not, it is a trap.

The boss wants you to say that the company is good and also wants you to show your loyalty...

But the workers don’t want to say it.

Workers just don’t want to talk.

Because it's not good.

Working in the palace is not good either.

Aunt Qu smiled and said, "There is really no good in being a slave forever."

An Jiu nodded.

So she wanted to leave the palace.

However, Aunt Qu said, "Life will be easier in this palace if you can get His Majesty's love and favor."

An Jiu?

What?

"Aunt, I am very satisfied with my current life and don't want to..."

"What are you thinking about?" Aunt Qu looked at her and said, "I remember that when you wanted to come to Guanghua Palace, you didn't have this in mind."

An Jiu almost forgot that the original owner came to Guanghua Palace just to climb onto the dragon bed, sleep with the emperor, and become the master.

"Aunt, I didn't know how high the heavens were before, but now I don't want to think about it anymore. I just want to..."

Before she finished speaking, Aunt Qu pressed her shoulder.

"No, you do."

An Jiu "?"

No, I don't want to.

Aunt Qu looked at her and said, "Your Majesty is the most noble man in the world. Only when you are favored by him can you live a good life."

An Jiu "..."

But benefits come with risks...

Your Majesty can chop people.

Maybe one day your head will move while you’re sleeping.

An Jiu was not interested at all.

It's just like someone tempting you to work abroad with a high salary.

It's definitely a pitfall.

It's definitely a trap.

She's just not cut out for it.

An Jiu insisted that he didn't want to and wasn't willing to.

Aunt Qu sighed and said, "If you really don't want to, then you have to stick to your original intention, otherwise..."

Aunt Qu didn't finish the rest of the words, but An Jiu understood.

If you want to seduce her, you should take her down completely, or you should not have any involvement with the emperor beyond the scope of other things, otherwise...

That's the emperor, not your village's little brother. If you don't like your little brother, you can at most say: Oh, I just treat you as my brother, you are a good person...

The little brother will be sad at most, but he can't do anything to you. Maybe you can become his long-awaited first love.

But if you anger the emperor, he will definitely teach you what a "good person" is.

"I understand."

After An Jiu expressed his loyalty, Aunt Qu didn't say anything else.

However, the emperor gave Eunuch Li a difficult problem...
