The sun is scorching and the cicadas are chirping.
Anjiu was dozing off in a small patch of shade outside the Guanghua Palace.
"Wake up."
She opened her eyes and saw a palace maid sitting opposite her, staring at An Jiu with a frown.
"You are so good. You don't do your duty properly and you are lazy. Be careful and tell Eunuch Li." The maid was furious.
"Forget Cuiliu, she is not sincere." The gorgeously dressed woman scolded Cuiliu.
Cui Liu was indignant: "My Lady, you are kind-hearted. You should tell Eunuch Li about this kind of sneaky person and punish him."
An Jiu looked at them singing the same tune, her face was filled with fear, but her heart was calm.
Finally, when the two servants finished their duet, Cui Liu said to An Jiu in a haughty manner, "Go in and tell them that Concubine Mei personally cooked the soup for His Majesty."
An Jiu "?"
Are you two okay? It's summer, it's so hot, and the emperor is still taking a nap. You want him to wake up and drink your soup?
Who are you two servants? What is 놖?
Can you use some brains...
The emperor has a very, very, very bad temper.
She knew this three days ago.
An Jiu came from across time.
It turned out that she entered the palace at the age of thirteen, and after three years of hard work, she finally saved some money. After some preparations, she got a chance to serve the emperor.
Relying on her good looks, she originally wanted to climb onto the dragon bed and become a wife.
That day, she was supposed to help the emperor wash and dress, but a new maid was paid more and got the chance to serve closely.
After a while, the maid did something to provoke the emperor, and the emperor picked up a sword and stabbed her through, with blood splattering everywhere.
The emperor wiped the blood-stained sword, threw the handkerchief on the ground, and left impatiently.
Eunuch Li was not surprised by this scene, and he told everyone: "Hurry up and clean up, don't pollute His Majesty's eyes."
The body of the palace maid was carried away. Yuan and several other palace maids cleaned up the room. After returning, Yuan was frightened and had a fever. No one knew whether she died of fever or fright. In short, she died, and An Jiu woke up as Yuan.
Because she had done a lot of things before, Aunt Qu made an exception and let her rest for three days. Today she was on duty and didn't dare to move forward. She stood outside the palace as a gatekeeper. Unexpectedly, she met the servant of Concubine Mei...
Noble Lady Mei frowned slightly when she heard her words.
Cui Liu refused: "Don't you understand what I'm saying? It says that Noble Lady Mei wants to see His Majesty..."
Before she finished speaking, Eunuch Li came out trotting, looked at Anjiu kneeling, then looked at Cuiliu, and asked in an inexplicable tone: "What's going on?"
Cuiliu looked at Eunuch Li and immediately put on a flattering smile.
"Eunuch, our queen personally made soup for His Majesty, but this palace servant didn't help us pass on the message. I don't know what her intention is..."
After saying this, she even glared at Anjiu secretly.
Eunuch Li still had a smile on his face, but the corners of his mouth drooped a little.
"Your Majesty is still taking a nap, so you should go back first."
Concubine Mei dared to scold An Jiu, but she didn't dare to offend Eunuch Li. She winked at Cui Liu, and Cui Liu took out a bag of silver and stuffed it into Eunuch Li's hand, but Eunuch Li put it back to her.
"Your Excellency should go back. His Majesty is still taking a nap and we dare not disturb him."
Concubine Mei sighed and was about to leave when Xiao Fuzi, who was serving in the palace, ran out in a hurry: "Eunuch, His Majesty is awake."
Eunuch Li's face changed, and he didn't care about Concubine Mei, and trotted back to Guanghua Palace.
It was still hot outside, the cicadas' chirping was still annoying, and Concubine Mei was waiting anxiously.
"Cui Liu, are we disturbing His Majesty?"
Cui Liu comforted her: "Don't worry, Your Majesty. His Majesty likes you so much that he will definitely meet you."
Noblewoman Mei felt relieved, tidied her clothes and waited quietly.
Not long after, Xiao Fuzi came out.
"Lady Mei, His Majesty lets you in."
Concubine Mei was delighted, Cuiliu looked at Anjiu proudly, and the servants brought the cold breakfast soup into Guanghua Palace.
An Jiu looked at their backs and thought, the emperor is very irritable when he wakes up, I'm afraid Concubine Mei will soon become a Concubine without a Concubine...
really…
Less than an incense stick of time passed before Concubine Mei let out a scream and collapsed all over. She was helped out by several young eunuchs in the palace.
As for Cui Liu, she was carried out, blood dripping all the way. An Jiu and two young palace maids carried buckets and cleaned up the blood on the ground in silence and numbness.
