Get pregnant quickly: Jiaojiao relies on giving birth and is favored by the boss

Chapter 358: Meeting the Ninth Thousand Year Old (3)
Fortunately, she was not a palace maid of the lowest level and did not need to do tasks like washing toilets.

After Lin Yan took the broom, she swept the large yard. There were not many fallen leaves, but they were scattered and needed to be swept into one place.

As she swept, she sorted out the current situation.

The Shufei was once the most favored concubine in the harem, but it was only once. After the Lipin entered the palace, she was no longer as favored as before.

Fortunately, her background was strong enough, so she could live a good life in the palace even if she was not favored by the emperor.

It's just that recently, because the emperor has been going to Concubine Li more and more often, he has been coming to Xianyang Palace less and less. Concubine Shu's temper has become more and more unpredictable as these things happened.

Most likely she is just in love. She entered the harem not to consolidate her family's position in the court, but to compete for the emperor's favor. She truly loves the emperor, so she cares about where his heart is.

But if she couldn't find her position after entering the palace, she would be kicked out from the beginning.

The battlefield of women is full of smoke, but to be honest, there are only a few who are willing to fight.

The queen in Kunning Palace had no idea about this. She was always quiet and did not participate in any party wars. She would deal with things when there were things to deal with, and she would not be disturbed when there were no things to deal with.

She truly lived up to the role of a queen, being the mother of the country, and did not become a shrew. She was a qualified queen.

To be honest, she already had a son and a daughter, so she didn't care where the emperor went. She had the power of her mother's family and her children by her side, so as long as she didn't make any mistakes, she didn't need to worry about anything.

The Concubine Shu was a person who could not see clearly. If she was less obsessed with the Emperor's favor, she might be able to live a more carefree life in the harem.

But she had to fight with those concubines who were lower in rank than her.

Lipin was brought back from Jiangnan by the Emperor. She spoke softly and tenderly. She was also weak and needed help when she walked, but she was not sick.

She looked like a lady of good character and manners, and was the daughter of the local prefect. It was said that the two fell in love when the emperor stayed at the prefect's house.

But the daughter had just reached the age of marriage, and the emperor was already in his thirties, a man who could be her father. Did they like each other? Everyone could only laugh in their hearts.

The Queen and the Emperor have a friendship dating back to their youth, so no matter what, she is secure in her position as Queen.

But Concubine Shu was not like that. She entered the palace after the emperor ascended the throne. Because of the power of her mother's family and her stunning beauty, the emperor at that time lingered for a long time.

Habit is a terrible thing. After the emperor got used to treating her well, he would think about her from time to time in the future. Because there is no substitute, he would keep thinking about her.

But when Concubine Li entered the palace, everything was different.

Concubine Shu is no longer young, and after so many years of living together, he has long been tired of her. And the new beauty is so suitable for his taste, how can he not change his mind?

Although Concubine Shu fell out of favor, her treatment was no different from before, because the Emperor only ignored her, not despised her.

But she didn't think so. She felt that something that belonged to her was taken away. And when the master is unhappy, the servants will also suffer.

Many slaves and maids in the Xianyang Palace were replaced, including the personal maids and even the senior maids.

why?
Because of the fight with Lipin a while ago, there might be a traitor in the palace, which caused Shufei to be confined for a month. During this month, they screened and finally picked some who looked like spies, or those who were not pleasing to the eye, and beat them to death directly.

It doesn't matter whether the person is wronged or not, as long as the master says he is, then he is. In this era, slaves have no human rights.

Although a group of people were replaced, Concubine Shu's mood did not improve, but became worse.

When she was in favor in the past, if someone made her unhappy, she would just curse a few words and deduct some money. She was not a vicious person and would not take someone's life casually.

But now, if she frowned even a little, she would be dragged out and beaten with a stick. If she was displeased, she would be on her own, as there was a high probability that she would be beaten to death.

Therefore, everyone in the Xianyang Palace was in a panic, fearing that one day they would be targeted by Concubine Shu and lose their lives.

Those who bullied the original owner tried their best to push the work to others in order to avoid being seen by their master.

The original owner had wandered under Concubine Shu's nose a few times, but her presence was very low. In addition, she worked quietly and didn't make any noise, so she didn't attract her attention.

After everything went smoothly, those people became more determined to push the job to her.

"Hey, Vanilla, help me with the work."

Lin Yan had just finished sweeping the floor and was about to go back to drink some water when she was stopped. The original owner was called Vanilla, a name given by the previous nanny.

Her original name was Xiaocao, which was inconspicuous and lowly.

"No." After she refused, she walked away without giving the people behind her a chance to react.

Originally, everyone had their own duties, did their own work, and received their own wages. If you push your work to others, you still want to receive wages?

Something that doesn't make sense.

Cuilan didn't expect that she would actually refuse. She stood there in a daze, not yet reacting. When she came to her senses, the other party had already left, and there was no trace of her clothes.

Her job was mainly to clean the outer courtyard, and she could not enter the inner courtyard because her rank was not high enough. But the sun was so strong, and she didn't know when Concubine Shu would come out to relax, so she was a little scared.

But if she doesn't do it and the person in charge finds out, she will be even more miserable.

Finally, she gritted her teeth and went to work.

The Xianyang Palace is large enough, with winding corridors and countless pavilions. If you are not familiar with the terrain, it is easy to get lost here.

Some of the pavilions had some clear water in them, and were places for the palace servants to rest after working hard. Because they were relatively secluded, the Empress Shu had never visited them.

Lin Yan sat on the stone bench, thinking about the current situation.

Her target was not the emperor, but the most trusted minister around the emperor, a eunuch.

He was a god of death who held real power and had the power of life and death, second only to the emperor in status. He was almost a dog of the emperor, and he would do whatever he was told to do without any hesitation.

Everyone was terrified when they heard his name, and there were no palace maids serving him. It was said that those people were thrown into a mass grave and fed to dogs.

Lin Yan's expression was a little solemn. In her opinion, this matter was a bit tricky.
