The atmosphere in the Qing'e Palace was somewhat eerie.
Chen Xi knelt on the ground and sobbed.
She wore a light blue robe and a white skirt, which made her look like a small white flower.
Although the grandeur and solemnity of the Qing'e Palace enhanced her aura somewhat, after all, her clothes were made of fine material, she was still a high-class innocent girl.
Above, Huan Yue sat on the throne, sleeping. Eating well and sleeping well was the best life.
Therefore, the palace maids lowered the curtain and put up many fans around the area.
A pair of pheasant-tail fans and two pairs of round fans made the Qing'e Palace even more beautiful.
Below, Guo Bing doesn't care much about dressing up, but she pays attention to her status. She looks beautiful no matter what she wears, and she's slowly reading a book in her hand.
Xuexiang Courtyard is a bit small, but coming to Qing'e Palace for company means you have company, so life is quite comfortable.
Guo Bing is a rather cold person. He has been in Sheng'an for a year and a half, but he is not particularly close to anyone in Sheng'an.
Chen Xi cried, but Guo Bing didn't react at all.
The palace maids stood guard, serving hot tea whenever needed.
Chen Xi glanced at it secretly, wondering if anyone would care if she died here.
It wasn't that Chen Xi was overthinking things, but that's just the feeling people got.
Di Baose was also sitting there comfortably.
She was an ignorant and incompetent woman, and even more beautiful than Guo Bing.
A palace maid moved a small stool and sat down in front of her, holding a scroll and reading it to her in a low voice.
Chen Xi was kneeling in a position roughly between the two concubines, so she could hear quite clearly.
The palace maid's recitation was quite pleasant to listen to...
Gui Nu knows that Miss Bai is the young master's fiancée, so what?
Everyone is equal in matters of the heart. Even though she was a maid, she had the right to love.
The young master loves her; Miss Bai is the one who shouldn't exist.
Although the engagement was arranged by both families, she couldn't object if the young master really wanted to marry Miss Bai.
But Miss Bai must know that the young master loves her. If Miss Bai insists on getting involved, she will only hurt herself.
Doesn't she know that forcibly interfering in someone else's relationship is immoral? At the very least, she should know that forced relationships are never happy.
Young master is a person, and has the right to love.
Gui Nu was, after all, beautiful and very clever.
She knew that the madam liked her very much and was willing for her to be with the young master.
The person who truly disliked her was the old lady, because Yinshuang, who served the old lady, had once liked the young master, but the young master rejected her; so she slandered her in front of the old lady, something Guinu couldn't explain.
Gui Nu knew that there would be many more difficulties between her and the young master.
But she and the young master were truly in love, and nothing could stop them.
Gui Nu knew that as long as she didn't give up, she would definitely be able to be with the young master and have many children and grandchildren.
After the palace maid finished reading this passage, she paused to take a sip of tea.
Chen Xi looked at her. And behind her? There was Miss Bai and Yin Shuang, there must be others.
Guo Bing glanced at the palace maids; they were not as captivating as Lady You.
The palace maid thought to herself, if it weren't for these distorted values, she would have suggested printing them out and selling them.
It makes some sense if you look at it the other way around, but not everyone understands it, and they won't realize it when you say the opposite to them.
The palace maid composed herself and continued reading...
The moonlight was beautiful that night.
Gui Nu dressed herself up, wanting to give the young master a surprise.
Although the young master loves her no matter what, she still wants to make him happier.
It wasn't until the second watch of the night that Gui Nu, who had taken a nap on the table, heard the young master return.
Gui Nu stepped forward to help the young master change his clothes, and in doing so, she hugged him and greedily inhaled his scent.
The young master saw that she was dressed up, and then he was so embarrassed.
After the young master fell asleep, Gui Nu realized that he had a different smell on him.
Gui Nu lay down on the young master and smelled him carefully, then picked up the clothes he had taken off to examine them.
She knew the young master's clothes better than her own, and she could smell not only their scent but also a purse that had fallen out of his pocket.
This exquisite purse is not the one embroidered by Gui Nu; it has a small orchid on it and two even smaller characters.
Gui Nu thought for a moment and figured it was probably stuffed into his body by some woman, so she could just throw it away.
Gui Nu was a very intelligent woman.
As long as she and the young master truly love each other, none of these things matter.
The palace maid stopped.
Chen Xi couldn't stop talking and hurriedly asked, "What happened next?"
The palace maid glanced at her, but didn't look at Consort Di. Wasn't she in a hurry?
Di Baose was asleep.
Chen Xi wanted to take the book and read it herself.
The palace maid asked curiously, "Why are you, a young lady, reading a maid's book?"
If we were to put ourselves in Miss Bai's shoes, wouldn't we look down on this maid?
How shameless of her to seduce the young master! She even treats her master like royalty.
She dares to dispose of her master's things at will; that's a dangerous mindset.
The most dangerous group of people were naturally those outside Duanmen and Xuandemen, who considered it all perfectly normal.
But the problem is very clear; it's just being ignored.
Chen Xi sat on the ground and cried; the carpet was more comfortable than sitting outside the door.
The palace maid picked up the book again and began to read...
Gui Nu slept soundly in the young master's arms until morning.
Gui Nu was mortified by the change in her young master that morning.
But she liked it; as long as the young master loved her, she was willing to do anything.
After serving the young master well, Gui Nu was both tired and satisfied, feeling that there was no better way to live her life.
But the young master still has to get up and study.
Gui Nu wouldn't affect him. The young master had been intelligent since childhood, and he would definitely do better than others in his studies, achieving high honors and becoming a high-ranking official. Although Gui Nu still wanted to hold the young master, thinking about the future, she became clever and obedient again.
The young master kissed her and suddenly asked, "Have you seen my purse?"
Gui Nu smiled and picked up the purse to show him: "Isn't it here?"
The young master said, "That's not it."
Gui Nu asked, "Which one is that?"
The young master said, "The one I had with me yesterday."
Gui Nu laughed and said, "You mean that? I threw it away."
*Slap!* The young master slapped her across the face: "Who told you to throw my things?"
The palace maid added background music.
Chen Xi was startled!
Sunny said in a sassy tone, "Is Gui Nu stupid? Just say you didn't see it, that's all. Maybe the young master left it outside."
Ginny said, "Guinu is still a bit naive and not insightful enough. What man in this world doesn't steal food? As long as the young master truly loves her, she will always have a place in his heart."
Another voice chimed in: "This servant is just a servant; she knows her place, and the young master is somewhat lenient with her. Aren't all men like that? If she disrespects Miss Bai, or even the young master, how can that be acceptable?"
Sunny said, "Where does that leave the young master's face?"
Di Baose interjected, "Unless the maid can completely control the young master."
Huan Yue chimed in, "Let's all help Gui Nu think of a way to turn the situation around?"
Guo Bing laughed.
Huan Yue sat up.
Chen Xi's mind was still filled with that snapping sound.
Looking at her, was she perhaps too immersed in the role, making it difficult for her to accept?
But wasn't it all the maid's own idea?
Chen Zhun may have loved the You family that much, but others might not.
Maids are just junk.
