"Master, are you...are you really alright? What does His Majesty say? Is there anything to blame?"
Tangyuan was so worried that tears came out of her eyes.
But she was afraid of making her master unhappy, so she forced herself to suppress her emotions and quickly wiped away her tears with her sleeves.
"Not only did His Majesty not blame me, he also gave me a reward."
"ah?"
Just when Tangyuan looked stunned, a sharp and long voice was heard outside the cold palace.
"Miss Si, please accept the order!"
"Did you hear that? Let's go and receive the order."
Si Muqiao tugged at the collar of Tangyuan, who was already stunned, and the two of them quickly left the house and walked towards the yard.
At this moment, a familiar-looking eunuch was standing in the middle of the yard with a group of people.
After seeing the sound of them appearing, the shrill voice sounded again.
"Miss Si, please accept the order!"
"Yes." Si Muqiao cursed in her heart, but on the surface she knelt down calmly and gently.
The most annoying thing in the ancient imperial palace was the rule of kneeling all the time.
It seems that she needs to find some time to find Tangyuan to help her sew a pair of kneeling ones.
"Your Majesty has ordered that you be given a pair of jade ruyi and a piece of jade coral. From now on, you must serve in the Yangxin Palace at noon every day."
"Yes. I thank you for your grace." Si Muqiao kowtowed with the dumplings.
After the eunuch finished reading the decree, he signaled with his eyes, and the people behind him holding the rewards immediately walked forward.
Simuqiao also stood up with the help of Tangyuan, and looked at the eunuch who announced the decree and thanked him.
"Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law."
"It's not hard, it's not hard. I am just following His Majesty's orders."
"Father, there are some freshly killed watermelons in the yard. Would you like to have a piece?"
Si Muqiao also wanted to imitate what was shown on TV, so he took out a silver ingot and stuffed it over.
But she didn't.
She is really poor!
At the moment, the only thing she could think of to take out was the half watermelon on the table in the yard.
However, she could only kill one piece for the father-in-law in front of her, no more!
"Thank you for the reward, Miss Sima, but I have to go back and report, so I won't eat it."
"Miss Si, I'm leaving now."
After saying this, the eunuch left in a hurry.
“???” Si Muqiao was a little confused.
She invited people to eat melon with good intentions, and it would have been fine if they didn't want to eat it, but why did they run away with a frightened look on their face?
Is she scary?
"Master, you have changed!" Tangyuan on the side couldn't help but speak.
"Huh? What's changed?" Si Muqiao asked curiously.
"Just... just a little bolder and more cheerful."
"Brave? Are you?"
"Yes, yes. You even dared to use words to threaten the eunuch who bullied us before. How powerful!"
"Huh? Threat? I didn't do that!" Si Muqiao looked confused.
What did she say?
"Didn't you just tell that eunuch to be more careful next time?"
"After all, you have won the love of His Majesty, and you will surely rise to great heights soon."
"If he dares to bully us again, he will be killed like the watermelon in the yard."
“???” Si Muqiao.
Wow, this girl Tangyuan has such a great imagination, right?
Is that what she meant?
Also, is it appropriate to use the term "few yellow and tall" here?
Shouldn't we use words like "flying to the treetops like a phoenix"?
Bah, she just wants to be a salted fish, not a phoenix.
"Forget it. What should I eat later? I'm hungry." Si Muqiao didn't know how to explain, so he simply stopped talking.
"Master, please wait a little longer. I will bring you food right away."
Because she was banished to the cold palace, was being targeted by others, and had no money, her food had not been very good recently.
There is a small kitchen in the cold palace, but it is dirty.
They never used it.
Of course, there were no ingredients available.
As for food and clothing, they had to rely on other palace maids and eunuchs to deliver food to the gate of the cold palace, and Tangyuan would go to get it.
As for the watermelon I ate before...
It took Tangyuan a long time to persuade the eunuch who delivered the food to him, and he finally got it by exchanging his own silver bracelet.
