In the evening, Soft Fortune Palace's Yi Lan Hall finally regained its peace. This afternoon, because their master had been punished and imprisoned by the Empress Dowager, the servants in the courtyard felt that there was no future for them to follow such a master. They all began to relax and slack off.
Of the remaining three second-class palace maids, other than Xing 'er, who was currently relying on her, Xiao Mei and Xiao Tao were rarely seen. Liu Weirong had almost forgotten that they were her second-class palace maids.
Not to mention now, he was probably already restless and wanted to rely on other masters.
Nanny Zhang was not bad. She didn't talk much and did things steadily. She gave her the feeling that she was the spy sent by the emperor. Liu Weirong let her and a few rough maids take charge of the small kitchen.
Wet Nurse Chen did not belong to any party. She was just a nurturing wet nurse sent by the Emperor.
If she could take this Granny Chen as her confidant, she would be a great help to Liu Weirong.
In the evening, the Empress sent someone to pass on the message. In the future, Noble De did not have to go to the imperial kitchen to receive her meals. She was specially allowed to have her own small kitchen.
This news was a pleasant surprise for Liu Weirong.
One had to know that only concubines above the concubine rank could have their own small kitchen. Those below the noble rank could forget about it.
It just so happened that the vegetables in her space matured quickly. She had already harvested them twice and had a lot in stock. Unfortunately, she could not take them out. She was so anxious. If she wanted to start a small stove in her space, she did not have any kitchenware. Now that she had a small kitchen, it really solved her urgent need.
It was still possible to go to the kitchen from time to time to show off his cooking skills and replace them.
In the future, White Lotus would not have to go to the imperial kitchen to receive meals.
There might be someone in the imperial kitchen. If she added something to her meal, it would be troublesome.
But tonight's meal was brought over by White Lotus from the imperial kitchen. After dinner, Liu Weirong lazily lay on the couch to digest her food.
"Master, the Emperor ordered Consort Hui Niangniang's sign tonight.”Xing 'er brought over a bowl of lotus seed soup. Thinking of the news she heard on the way, she said it.
" Mm..." Liu Weirong replied lazily. She did not find it strange. Fang Zhiying's forehead was injured and she could not sleep with him. Concubine Hui and Concubine Shu were both Rank-1, so it was either Concubine Hui or Concubine Shu who would be sleeping with him tonight.
However, the words that Consort Shu had said in Ci An Palace today had probably reached Murong Che's ears. That was why he had flipped Consort Hui's plaque first.
Seeing his master finish the lotus seed soup, Bai Lian took the bowl and smiled,""Master's attitude is really good."
Xing 'er nodded.
Liu Weirong glanced at them." Anyway, I've removed the sign. I'll be grounded from tomorrow onwards. I can't sleep with you. It doesn't matter who sleeps with you. If you get jealous, you're asking for trouble…"
After saying that, Liu Weirong felt that it was strange. No matter what, Murong Che was the first man in her two lives. Why didn't she feel a little jealous?
Strange!
Liu Weirong couldn't be bothered to think about it anymore since she couldn't figure out her own mentality. (Xiliu Literature Xiluwx.com)
"Right, Xing 'er, go to the empress tomorrow and tell her that I want to grow some fruits and vegetables in the palace. If possible, I can dig a small pond to raise some fish and prawns.”Liu Weirong remembered that the seeds in her space could only be planted one more time, so she ordered.
Although White Lotus had also asked someone to bring some vegetable seeds and fruit seedlings, it was too little. In addition, there was nothing in her space river. She could take advantage of the Empress 'special permission to let her have a small kitchen and ask the Empress to give her a convenience when she started cooking.
There were only a few vegetables and fruit seedlings planted in the courtyard. The vegetables had sprouted under the water of the space river, and the fruit seedlings had also grown. It seemed that the river water was quite useful.
However, it did not have the heaven-defying ripening effect written in novels. At most, it grew a little faster.
Moreover, the fruit trees planted outside were growing very slowly. The fruit trees in her space were almost bearing fruit.
In another two days, she would be able to eat the fruits in the space. Just thinking about it made her happy.
This summer, her portion of fruits was very small. There were only a few seasonal fruits and a small bunch of grapes every day. It was not enough to fill the gaps between her teeth. She was dying of hunger.
"Master, it's not good to trouble the Empress for this matter, right?”Bai Lian hesitated.
Xing 'er nodded hurriedly.
"We're just going through the motions at the Empress's place, letting the Empress 'people bring the seeds over, in case something happens.”She now understood that if she wanted to get something from outside the palace, it was better to take the open road.
He didn't want to be framed by others and couldn't explain it even with a hundred mouths.
White Lotus was stunned. That's right, how could she forget that this was the palace, not the Liu residence? If something happened, it would be fatal.
"This servant understands." Xing 'er's expression was a little conflicted. Master wouldn't really plan to turn the courtyard into a vegetable field, right? This taste was too strange.
Looking at the sky, the moon had just climbed up the treetops. Liu Weirong thought that there was still a lot of time left, so she would copy the Four Books for Women first.
The four books on women include "Women's Commandments,""Internal Training,""The Analects of Women," and "Nvfan Jie Lu."
It was obvious that it was a reference book for brainwashing virtuous women and mass production.
" White Lotus, bring the Four Books for Women that the Empress sent over…"
"Master, you want to copy the book now?" Bai Lian was surprised.
"Well, it's still early!" Liu Weirong nodded and sat up straight, letting Xing 'er tidy up the table next to her.
Soon, White Lotus brought the four books over.
Liu Weirong looked at the four books in front of her and flipped through a few pages. She had a headache. The contents of these books were too profound and the meaning was too difficult to understand. She was staring at them with stars in her eyes. Even if she copied all four books, it would be useless.
Some of the words were still unknown, and some of the words combined together did not even know what they meant.
She held the book in her hand and suddenly wanted to laugh. Did the Empress Dowager not know that she had no knowledge? It was useless even if he copied the Four Classics for Women.
She could just treat it as practice. Anyway, her calligraphy was very ugly.
After shaking off the thoughts in her mind, Liu Weirong ordered the white lotus to grind the ink. She hummed a few tunes in a good mood, picked up the brush, and bent over the table to copy the book.
Xing 'Er and White Lotus looked at each other. Their master seemed to be very happy copying the books.
Around 10 minutes later, Liu Weirong put down her brush, rubbed her sore wrist, and asked someone to prepare a hot bath.
After showering, Liu Weirong turned off the lights and went to sleep. She had a good night's sleep.
The next day, she got up early and ate breakfast. Xing 'er left to find the Empress. She took a walk in the yard and looked at the vegetable field. Liu Weirong was very happy when she saw the vegetables growing well.
White Lotus, who was following behind, was speechless when she saw her master's happiness.
Granny Chen, who had also woken up early, was standing by the window. As a nurturing nanny, she looked at the vegetable field not far away with a headache and Noble De walking around in the middle of the vegetable field.
Yesterday, she had already received a mission from the Emperor to train her as a consort while Noble De was in confinement.
This training included reading, but the course would probably end soon. Noble De had a good memory and was smart. He learned quickly and well.
There was no need to worry.
What came next was the etiquette that gave her a headache. To be honest, although Noble De did not have the graceful bearing of a lady from a noble family, and his every move looked so elegant and noble, even the way he walked was graceful and graceful, Noble De had a lazy and tranquil temperament, and a faint scholarly aura.
A woman without any ink-marks actually had such a temperament, which made her, an old nanny who was used to seeing imperial concubines, extremely shocked when she first saw her. Moreover, the strange thing was that it seemed to be engraved in her bones.
Initially, he thought that she was already literate. After teaching her, he realized that she was half-baked and couldn't even write well. He really didn't know how she had raised her temperament.
Wet Nurse Chen did not know that her body had changed, so of course, her temperament was different.
Otherwise, Liu Xiangya wouldn't have been so wary of her.
While Wet Nurse Chen was confused, Liu Weirong had already left the vegetable field and gone back.
After returning to the dormitory and tidying herself up, Liu Weirong asked Bai Lian to guard the door outside. She entered the space for a while and drank the spring water first. Then she harvested the ripe vegetables and planted them again. Finally, she glanced at the fruit trees in the space with envy before leaving.
After she came out, she felt a little bored. She did not know how to embroider yet, so she planned to continue copying books. In this era where there was no entertainment, life was hard. It would be great if there were miscellaneous books from this era to read.
Liu Weirong copied the book over and over again, thinking absentmindedly.
The paper was filled with calligraphy.
After copying for a while, he lost his mind. It was getting late. Why wasn't Xing 'er back yet? Could it be that the Empress did not agree?
Just as he thought of Xing 'er, Xing' er returned.
"How is it? Did the Empress agree?”As soon as she entered, Liu Weirong asked anxiously.
Xing 'er nodded happily."The Empress has agreed." What she didn't say was that the Empress had a strange look on her face when she heard her request.
However, he still agreed in the end.
"That's good!" Liu Weirong beamed with joy. Her space could be filled again. She picked up a piece of snack and ate it in a good mood.
"Master, this servant heard of a major matter on the way back.”Xing 'er said nosily.
"What's the big deal?" Liu Weirong swallowed her snack and asked casually. In this palace, the smallest of things was always a big deal.
He didn't care much about it and just took a sip of tea leisurely.
Xing 'er chuckled a few times." Master, wasn't Consort Hui the one who slept with you last night? But this morning, the one who asked the Empress to stamp was not Consort Hui Niangniang, but your elder sister, Noble Li!”
" Cough cough…" Liu Weirong choked on her tea and widened her beautiful eyes in shock.
Liu Xiangya was sleeping with him?
What was going on? Wasn't it Concubine Hui's sign?
"Xing 'Er, is what you said true? Did the Emperor take a liking to Noble Li?" White Lotus, who was standing at the side, asked with a face full of joy.
"Of course it's true!" Xing 'Er nodded affirmatively.”
Liu Weirong saw the undisguised joy on Bai Lian's face, and a dark light flashed across her eyes.
" Then, is Consort Hui…is she unhappy…" Bai Lian bit her lip and stammered.
Xing 'Er shook her head." I don't know about that.”
Worry flashed across Bai Lian's face.
Liu Weirong felt a chill in her heart. This was the servant girl that her father had given her, a person who was with her but had a heart for her 'good sister'.
"Alright, White Lotus, don't worry. Consort Hui niangniang won't vent her anger on elder sister. Perhaps Consort Hui niangniang acquiesced! Otherwise, how could sister be a bed-servant?" Liu Xiangya smiled.
"Yes, this servant also thinks so!" Xing 'er nodded in agreement.
White Lotus thought about it and agreed, so she put away her worries.
Little did she know that her worries were real. When Consort Hui Wang Hanyu paid her respects to the Empress today, she was ridiculed by Consort Shu's words and lost all her face.
