Jianhong tiptoed over and first patted Qiao Yuange with her hand. Seeing that she had no reaction and seemed like she was going to fall down after being pushed, Jianhong immediately hardened her heart and called Cuiqing.
Cui Qing followed behind, and although she was trembling all over, she felt inexplicably jealous when she thought that Qiao Yuange actually wanted to climb onto the emperor's bed. She thought that Qiao Yuange had no idea of his own worth!
She didn't want to hurt Qiao Yuange, but when she thought of Qiao Yuange's attitude towards her yesterday, she felt that Qiao Yuange looked down on her since she became the emperor's maid.
The two of them swiftly carried Qiao Yuange onto the emperor's bed.
Qiao Yuange felt very weak all over, as if he was too tired and had fallen into a deep sleep.
Fortunately, the emperor's dragon bed was relatively wide. After they hurriedly carried Qiao Yuange up to the bed, Jianhong immediately said to Cuiqing in a low voice, "Let's go out and find a few more people. Bring the head nanny and the eunuch over here, and tell them that we came here to give the emperor some calming incense, and we saw that Qiao Yuange had no good intentions!"
After saying that, Cuiqing and Jianhong ran out quickly, calling many people as they ran.
Along the way, the eunuch and the head nanny were in a hurry, followed by the new palace maids. These palace maids heard Jianhong and Cuiqing vividly describing how Qiao Yuange found the emperor lying on a couch and how he shamelessly seduced the emperor, which immediately awakened everyone's desire for gossip.
They started out by running fast, and then trotting, especially the eunuch and the maid. They had been around the emperor for many years, and had seen many maids trying to get into his bed, but all of them ended up in a miserable state. After all, in everyone's eyes, the emperor was still the cold man who had no idea about women.
Although Qiao Yuange is very different, I heard from people in the palace recently that Qiao Yuange and the emperor have become much closer, and the emperor is quite polite to Qiao Yuange. But if Qiao Yuange thinks that the emperor will allow her to climb onto the dragon bed, then she is just wishful thinking!
Everyone basically ran to the side hall of Taixing Palace, took two steps at a time, rushed to the outside of the screen, stretched their necks to look inside -
I saw Qiao Yuange stretching out her hand to pick up the candle wick. Her movements were very gentle and calm, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.
Seeing everyone swarming outside the screen, the leading eunuch and head nanny widened their eyes in surprise, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Qiao Yuange stretched out her slender hand, swung the candlestick, put it to her lips, and blew steadily. Her movements were graceful and gentle, and every move was calm and composed, which was unmatched by any other maid.
Her clothes were neatly worn, and although she looked a little dusty, there was nothing wrong with her appearance. Even her hair was combed meticulously.
She smiled lightly, her eyes bright and shining. She first glanced at everyone, then said, "I say, everyone came here in such a hurry, are you trying to see if I, Qiao Yuange, will take advantage of the emperor's unconsciousness and try to climb into his bed, and then make it a done deal?"
As soon as Qiao Yuange said this, it was like a sharp knife, scraping everyone's ears and also scratching Cuiqing and Jianhong's faces.
Along the way, Cuiqing and Jianhong told everyone this, and when Qiao Yuange repeated it, the lie was self-defeating.
On the surface, Qiao Yuange looked calm, her clothes were neat and tidy, and she was composed and composed. It was obvious that she had no intention of hooking up with the emperor. Those people who cut red and green must be slandering Qiao Yuange!
A surge of anger suddenly rose in the eunuch's heart. He waved his hand and the head nanny led everyone out of the side hall of Taixing Palace and came to the open space in front of the main hall.
He paced back and forth, walked in front of Cuiqing and Jianhong, and looked down at the two of them.
The two of them couldn't figure it out. Qiao Yuange had been sleeping like a dead pig before, so how could he suddenly wake up? Could he be pretending to be asleep?
"You two, why don't you do your work for the whole day and actually want to slander her? What has Qiao girl done to offend you? Why do you have to put such a big hat on her head? If the Queen Mother hears it, there will be no one to ask for help. Qiao girl's life will be lost because of the wrong accusation. You are really vicious women!"
The eunuch was furious. Although this was not the first time such a thing had happened, the eunuch was even angrier this time!
On the one hand, these two ignorant maids disturbed his sweet dreams, and on the other hand, eunuch had a good impression of Qiao Yuange and admired him very much, so he hoped to stand up for Qiao Yuange.
When they heard that the eunuch was angry, they all knelt on the ground immediately. Jianhong was braver after all. Her eyes flashed and she said in a cold voice: "Eunuch, it must be that Qiao Yuange stopped because he saw that the matter might be exposed. I clearly saw..."
Seeing that Jianhong was still stubborn, the eunuch became even angrier. But before he could say anything, the head nanny came up and grabbed Jianhong's collar, gritting her teeth and saying, "Don't think that I won't touch you just because you were sent by the mistresses in the harem! Today, the emperor is in a coma and doesn't know about these things. If you disturb the emperor's sweet dream, you won't be able to chop off your heads even if you have ten!"
"How dare you quibble at this moment? Qiao girl is the emperor's personal maid, how can a maid like you guess what happened? You two, go to the Ministry of Punishment to get ten strokes of the cane, and then go to the woodshed to reflect on your actions. If you don't reflect on your actions clearly, you are not allowed to eat!"
The nanny's tone was icy cold, and when it came to her face, it was like a poisonous snake with fangs.
Jianhong shuddered, took two steps back, opened her mouth, and said the first thing: "Mammy, it's unfair! I clearly saw..."
"Shut up! Drag him away!" The head nanny waved her hand, not caring about Cuiqing who was already crying and Jianhong who was shouting her innocence.
The two men were dragged away mercilessly.
The head nanny looked at the remaining maids again, walked over and said coldly: "Remember this, no matter who your master is, when you come to the emperor, you must behave yourself and do what you should do. Don't try to do what you shouldn't do, otherwise you will end up like them. Do you hear me!?"
All the palace maids bowed their heads and said yes, then dispersed.
The eldest nanny finally breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that Eunuch had been yawning repeatedly, she smiled and said, "Eunuch, look at this..."
The eunuch waved his hand, not caring at all, and said, "Madam, you have been with the emperor for too long, and you know his character. It seems that you have also seen the imperfections of Miss Qiao."
