Chapter 301 Do you want to leave the palace?
How to cleverly take advantage of Wen Chuyun's scandal is indeed a bit tricky.
After thinking for a while, Bai Wutong came up with an idea - why not find a helper...
She called Chan'er and ordered, "Go to the palace and ask carefully to see if there is any palace maid who is looking forward to leaving the palace."
"My Lady, leaving the palace? What does that mean?"
"I just want to leave the palace!"
The palace may seem rich and luxurious, but it is actually filled with dangers and dangers at every step.
If the palace maids failed to serve their masters well, they would be scolded and beaten.
If you are unfortunately slandered or exploited, you may even lose your life.
Some timid and cowardly palace maids would consider leaving the palace whenever they encountered some setbacks.
However, once you enter the palace, how easy is it to leave?
Either the master will show mercy and release the person.
Either you wait until you reach the age set by the palace to leave, then you can regain your freedom and marry someone else.
Most people have already been suffering from the harsh rules and heavy labor in this palace, and they are just gritting their teeth and holding on.
"Yes, I'll go and find out right away." Chan'er took the order and left.
Two hours later, Chan'er came with a girl who was about twenty years old.
The girl bowed her body slightly, took small steps, and walked into the door respectfully, bowing and saying, "This servant pays respects to the Imperial Concubine Zhao!"
Bai Wutong looked her up and down. Seeing that the palace maid was calm and not timid, he thought that she must have some hidden reason and was eager to leave the palace. "What's your name?"
The maid raised her eyes slightly and replied softly, "Your Majesty, my name is Bailing."
"This name is quite unique." Bai Wutong put down the teacup in his hand and looked directly at her. "I heard that you want to leave the palace?"
"To answer your Majesty, that's right. I really want to leave the palace..." Since the other party already knew it, Bailing simply stopped hiding it.
"Why are you so eager to leave the palace?"
"Before I entered the palace, I had a younger sister. Some time ago, my father met with an accident, and now my younger sister is the only one left at home. The neighboring family coveted my younger sister's beauty and wanted to force her to marry him. The wedding date is set for a month later. I am not yet old enough to leave the palace, and I don't have a master. I have no choice but to ask around to see if there are other ways to leave the palace..."
At this point, Bai Ling's eyes were red, and she kowtowed heavily, "Your Majesty, I am really desperate, so I resorted to this desperate measure and asked around. I hope Your Majesty will have mercy on me and forgive me this time."
After saying this, a hint of fear finally appeared on Bailing's face.
It seemed that she was just holding on before, but her character was much stronger than that of other palace maids.
Bai Wutong chuckled and motioned for Chan'er to help the man up. "What are you talking about? When did I ever say I would blame you?"
Bai Ling was startled, "Madam, then you..."
"Don't you want to leave the palace? I do have a way to help you achieve your wish, but you will inevitably suffer in the process, and your innocence will be lost. But don't worry, I will help you solve your sister's problem first. When you leave the palace, you sisters will be reunited."
Bai Ling has been in the palace for several years and knows very well that no good thing happens for no reason in this world.
Under the current circumstances, I must be of some value that can be utilized, and Concubine Zhao must want to use me to get something done.
Thinking of her only sister at home, she gritted her teeth and knelt on the ground, "My queen, you are kind-hearted. Who in this palace doesn't know that? Every year, people die in other palaces, but only here, my queen, is there peace and tranquility. I trust you!"
"It's good that you can trust me. I always keep my word and will not let anything happen to you. But the pain of the flesh and the loss of your innocence are unavoidable. I won't force you. I'll give you one day to think about it."
Bailing glanced at Bai Wutong secretly, then lowered her head again.
She tried many ways to leave the palace, but all ended in failure. Perhaps this was her last chance.
The family next door beat two daughters-in-law to death. Anyone who knew the truth would not marry him. If my father hadn't died, I could have protected my younger sister.
But now my little sister is all alone, how can she be their opponent!
As for innocence...it's gone if it's gone!
At worst, she could just stay single and live with her younger sister!
"Your Majesty, I have been in the palace for many years and have suffered physical pain before, but I can still bear it. I only ask Your Majesty to protect my sister first!"
In front of Bai Ling, Bai Wutong ordered Yunxiang, "Spread the news and find her sister and take good care of her."
"Yes, my lady, I will do it right away."
Bai Ling was filled with gratitude and kowtowed repeatedly to express his gratitude.
Bai Wutong asked Chan'er to give her the remaining cakes and said, "You can go down first. I will send someone to call you after your sister's affairs are settled. Don't mention what happened today to anyone else."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will keep my mouth shut and won't say anything more!" Bailing agreed and walked out.
Yunxiang also quickly arranged people and spread the message.
On the morning of the third day, an extremely simple small sachet was also brought into the palace along with the palace's purchasing convoy.
Bai Wutong took the sachet, looked through it carefully, and made sure there was nothing unusual before handing it to Chan'er, instructing her, "Find a deserted place and give this to Bailing. Tell her that her sister has been properly settled, and ask her to come see me tonight."
This matter cannot be delayed. If Wen Chuyun finds a solution to the rash on his face, it will be bad.
Although it was not easy to find a solution, the fact that she was able to recover from such severe disfigurement showed that she had some skills and luck.
Chan'er took the order and walked around the palace until she came to the ice room where Bailing was on duty.
Bailing was busy delivering ice to the palaces. Chan'er pretended to come to get some ice and bumped into Bailing inadvertently. She stuffed the sachet into her hand and lowered her voice, "I'm going to see the queen tonight."
Bailing looked normal and walked out with the ice basin.
Only when she was alone did she dare to open the sachet and check.
"Yes, this is indeed my little sister's thing!"
