"But she has never been like this before! If she dared to talk to us like this, we would have skinned her long ago, and we would not let her live until now!"

Yao Xianxiu's doubtful eyes were filled with crystal clear tears, but Xia Ruyan's words were full of teasing.

"You can't think that a little maid can change completely after just a few days here. In fact, maybe she has been dissatisfied with you for many years, but she didn't have the chance to say it out before, right?"

"Um...right..."

Yao Xianxiu finally understood that she was just a joke to Xia Ruyan, so she thought about it again and didn't mention it again.

"Okay! Sister, I came today to have a few drinks with you. Since the little maid is ignorant, I won't mention her anymore. Please beg her to go! Haha..."

Yao Xianxiu suddenly changed the expression on her face as soon as she changed her unhappy mood.

"That's right! There are ten unsatisfactory things in life. If you bear other people's mistakes in your heart, wouldn't you be angry to death? Hahahahaha..."

Xia Ruyan was smiling when Yunyao and Xixiang had already come up carrying a rattan basket each.

"Princess, the food, drinks and servants you requested are all ready."

Xixiang put it on the table with a smile, and Yun Yao next to her was also busy.

"Princess Lin, please don't worry about it. My maid just punished Yingxu, that girl, who faced the wall and thought about it."

Xixiang reluctantly smiled at Yao Xianxiu, and Xia Ruyan next to her also took over.

"Since the punishment has been paid, Princess Lin will naturally not mind it. Her belly is not as small as you think!"

Yao Xianxiu reluctantly smiled a few times, picked up the wine glass on the table and planned to pour some first, but unexpectedly, Xi Xiangyan quickly snatched the glass away.

"...You can't make the first move. The Crown Princess has a higher status than you. According to the rules, the servants have to pour you wine first, and then you have to pour the wine to the Crown Princess first. This is only proper etiquette, so you have to learn more.

Learn!”

Xixiang's words gave Yao Xianxiu another blow in the head. Yunyao on the side was embarrassed. She glanced at it and turned around to leave with the rattan basket.

"...Yunyao, wait for me!"

The two maids descended the steps of the palace one after another.

Yao Xianxiu looked at the pile of wine and food in front of her, but she no longer had any appetite.

"Haha... My sister just entered the palace and lived in the imperial palace. Naturally, she doesn't understand the rules of the palace. In fact, all new women who come in from outside the palace will go through some training, but don't mind it, wait.

You will slowly get used to it after you move out of the Imperial Palace."

Xia Ruyan picked up the wine glass in front of her and took a sip, the expression on her face seemed slow and leisurely.

"Yes, yes, yes..."

"ah………………"

"Oh...I see! Okay! Then let my sister appreciate this great river and mountains!"

It’s not that Yao Xianxiu didn’t catch the insidiousness on Yao Xianxiu’s face. She secretly thought: So what if I am unwilling? Who made me blind and fall into the deep pit of the palace? Now if

If you still suffer the consequences but don’t gain any wisdom, I’m afraid I will have no choice but to hide in the royal palace with the queen’s wronged soul and die of old age for the rest of my life!”

While she was thinking about herself, feeling sorry for herself and blaming herself, a crisp and familiar voice suddenly interrupted her.

"Princess, the food and wine you requested are here!"

Then Yunyao and Yingxu appeared from the corridor of the palace building, one behind the other, one carrying a rattan basket and the other carrying a table and chairs.

"Um?"

Yao Xianxiu was attracted by the two of them, and then stood up and looked at them blankly.

"Princess, you are here!"

Yun Yao walked towards this side, but the smile on her face looked a little embarrassed, while Ying Xu next to her was busy setting the table, pretending to be very busy.

"you………………"

She originally wanted to have a fit, but she glanced at Xia Ruyan next to her and endured it.

"? That's right! Isn't the basin for wiping yourself on yet brought? You can go to the steward and let him know!"

An old maid suddenly remembered that before she could put a shroud on the deceased, she must first clean her body.

"Oh! Yes! Why don't you keep watch and I'll go back quickly! What do you think?"

Another old lady said: "That's good! But I still have the concubine's belongings, and I need to go and hand them over to the nun in charge!"

"Uh... How about we go together?"

"Okay, okay! Hurry up and report to the general!"

“Who is it?!!!!!!…………”

She became furious instantly.

"Princess, what are you looking at? This slave has called you for a long time! But you still don't respond here!"

Yin Xin's innocent eyes were full of grievance.

"oh………………"

Xia Lingyue originally wanted to have a fit, but after thinking about it she decided to forget it.

"Yin Xin! Let me ask you something!"

Her tone became softer and she asked softly.

"Okay! As long as I know the princess's problem, I will tell you everything I know!"

"Don't worry too much yet, what if the golden gourd can be found?"

Xia Lingyue picked up the pair of palace bell bracelets on the table, with a little more gleam in her eyes.

"Even so, I still feel uneasy!"

"You! You just think too much. How can you be so worried?"

Xia Lingyue took out the golden key from her sleeve and murmured: "Hey... Although these things are all ready, if you find that golden gourd, it will be the icing on the cake."

"oh………………"

King Lin nodded thoughtfully. It seemed that what she said sounded quite reasonable, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.

Xia Lingyue smiled at her.

"Um………………"

She looked Yin Xin up and down, and her frown relaxed a lot.

It doesn’t look like she’s lying! Could it be that my nightmare syndrome has recurred?

So, she scratched her head in confusion, and a worried look appeared on her face...

"Haha...Does it mean that things you don't want to do will not exist? If so, I will treat it as a dream!"

"Hey... Since, that's the case, then it depends on what you think!"

Xia Lingyue sighed, looked down at the large red mark on her arm, and felt bursts of soreness emanating from her arm.

"Mother Lin..."

She pondered the name silently in her mind.

"I'm afraid only Granny Lin and Fen He who have handled it know the whereabouts of that golden gourd. I think we still need to come up with a foolproof plan!"

King Lin sighed facing the green distant mountains, then turned around and proposed to her.

"What's the surefire solution?"

Xia Lingyue frowned and pondered the meaning of this foolproof strategy.

While he was talking, King Lin had already walked around behind Xia Lingyue.

"Well! This issue is indeed worthy of consideration. We still need to take a long-term approach!"

"Um…………"

The cloudless sky was refreshing, and even the chirping of the birds was a little more shrill.

"Master! I have to go somewhere today!......"

Xia Lingyue grabbed the bracelet and put it into her cuffs.

"Where to go?"

She gently lifted up the hem of her skirt and held it in her hands and stepped into the door of the mansion. The look on her face was not overly enthusiastic. She just smiled lightly: "Do you want to come with me?"

"Oh...that's great! But where are we going?"

King Lin asked with concern.

"Go to the secret passage to find the secret..."

She lowered her head again and lowered her whisper.

“Oh…………that’s okay too!”

"hehe………………"

Her sneer had actually been brewing for a long time, but this time she really made up her mind.

Then, she glanced at Kong outside the door again, frowning, looking hesitant.

"Today I am going to pursue my dream..."
