Qiao Yuange didn't even bother to look at the Emperor's sharp eyes. He also picked up a pair of radishes, picked up the radish stems, and said anxiously with a smile: "Your Majesty, look, what colors are these?"
"Green? If there is nothing wrong with my eyes."
"Yes, green, green... green..." Qiao Yuange came over anxiously and reminded carefully.
Obviously in Qiao Yuange's mind, if the emperor was not mentally retarded, she had reminded him so clearly that he would definitely understand.
But the emperor looked at Qiao Yuange with a frown on his face and breathing heavily through his nose, obviously a little angry.
He was not angry because he was cheated on, but because he did not understand Qiao Yuange's hint.
Even Li Xiaoxiao was quite nervous. Not knowing what Qiao Yuange meant, she came up to Qiao Yuange and whispered in her ear, "Qiao girl, what do you mean by this?"
Are these people stupid? She made it so obvious, these people must be mentally handicapped.
Since this trick was useless, Qiao Yuange just put the quickie aside and said helplessly: "I thought you would like this color."
emperor:"……"
Li Xiaoxiao: “…”
"Who likes green?" Li Xixi said in a low voice.
Yes! Why don’t you like green?
After breakfast, Li Xiaoxiao led Qiao Yuange to the middle of the courtyard and said to her, "Qiao girl, some maids will be sent here from various places to serve as maids for the emperor. Since you are the eldest maid, you must choose carefully. Don't pick those who are not tactful and make the emperor angry."
Qiao Yuange didn't take her identity seriously. After all, the emperor didn't like her, and the empress dowager still wanted her. She was caught between two attacks every day and was walking on thin ice.
But after hearing what Li Xixi said, she realized that she actually had such great power in Taixing Palace?
After saying this, several maids were led by a woman and stood in the courtyard of Taixing Palace.
Qiao Yuange looked at everyone one by one. When he reached the end of the team, he suddenly paused and then saw two familiar people.
Were they Jianhong and Cuiqing, with whom she had had a conflict in the laundry department before?
The two girls lowered their heads at this time, placed their hands respectfully in front of them, with faint and gentle smiles on their faces.
But when Qiao Yuange looked at these two women, a feeling of dissatisfaction and pride suddenly rose in his heart.
Seeing that she was standing there without moving, Jianhong looked up cautiously, and when she met Qiao Yuange's gaze, she smiled slightly, with a barely perceptible hint of pride in her eyes.
Qiao Yuange stood there and really wanted to drive Jianhong and Cuiqing away, but she did not do so.
Why did she choose to escape when facing these two people who didn't want to face each other? Just because she didn't want to be afraid of trouble?
She didn't want Jianhong to feel that she was afraid of her! After all, it was Qiao Yuange who had said the harsh words, but now Qiao Yuange had not yet gained a firm foothold, and she really didn't have the extra energy to deal with Jianhong.
Li Yuyu followed behind Qiao Yuange, and Qiao Yuange asked without hesitation, "There should be some people among them who must stay, right?"
Li Xiaoxiao paused, turned to look at Qiao Yuange, and said in a low voice in surprise: "Qiao girl is indeed smart. In fact, these maids are all sent here by people from various courtyards. You should accept them all, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to each courtyard."
Every yard?
Qiao Yuange understood what Li Yuyu meant by these words. There were many courtyards in the harem, and the people living in the courtyards were all well-known people. Some were the women of the previous emperor, and some were the emperor's women. However, each courtyard sent a maid to act as a spy to monitor the emperor... What did the emperor do to anyone? Even if he was a pile of shit, there wouldn't be so many flies around him. Besides, the emperor wasn't shit...
"Does the emperor still have any privacy?" Qiao Yuange asked softly, gritting his teeth.
Li Xixi was naturally sad too. After all, he felt sorry for the emperor. "There is nothing we can do about it. When Concubine An heard that the Empress Dowager had sent a maid to the emperor, she knew clearly that this was a spy. Concubine An naturally couldn't miss this opportunity and also sent a maid. She also instigated her niece, Concubine An, to send a maid."
"When the concubines in the harem saw that Concubine An had also sent a maid, they quickly withdrew and sent their own maids over. This is... No one can be driven out of this group. After all, you are not yet firmly established and you cannot afford to offend anyone."
Li Xixi said helplessly.
Qiao Yuange sighed heavily and thought to himself, how strange! The emperor seemed to be indifferent to any woman, yet he had a concubine?
But probably he was not paying much attention to the imperial concubine either, otherwise why did Qiao Yuange have no impression of the imperial concubine at all in his memory?
She said to Li Yuyu: "Now I really understand why the emperor has such a bad mentality. No one around him is his own. How can he not feel aggrieved?"
These spies around here are so open and aboveboard that they can easily set up a mahjong table and even bring out a pot of Landlord.
Li Xiaoxiao said aggrievedly: "I am one of the emperor's own people."
"Anyway, you can't be too specific about a particular maid. Since each maid represents every courtyard in the harem, if you are prejudiced against her, wouldn't that mean you are prejudiced against the master behind her? To put it in a broader sense, it means that the Queen Mother is prejudiced against the master, so it's good that you two are involved with each other."
After Li Xixi finished speaking, he asked the old lady to arrange accommodation for everyone.
After everyone had left, Li Xixi put his hands behind his back and exclaimed, "From now on, there will be drama in Taixing Palace. Qiao girl, your life will not be easy either."
Qiao Yuange was really puzzled. She turned to Li Xixi and said, "Li Xixi, since you know that I was sent by the Queen Mother, why are you so... nice to me?"
Li Xiaoxiao paused. She didn't expect Qiao Yuange to ask her this question. At that moment, Li Xiaoxiao changed her previous lively attitude and said calmly, "Qiao girl, don't you know my attitude best? Your character, your body, and your helplessness, as well as your rescue of the emperor, are enough to make you, an ordinary palace maid, stand out, and make me look at you with new eyes."
Before, Qiao Yuange thought that Li Xixi was afraid of the Queen Mother, so he was especially nice to her. But what Li Xixi said made Qiao Yuange even more confused.
"You're talking about my character and my personality? How can you know my character and... my personality?"
