The little palace maid is charming and charming, and she is a disaster along the way

Chapter 8, Shouting

Ever since Shen Qingtang entered the palace, there have been a lot of people outside Guanju Palace.

While everyone in the harem was watching, no one knew that Wensi Residence in Chenglu Palace had changed another set of tea sets.

"Grandfather is partial!!"

Li Changzai angrily tore up the letter in his hand, "Why should I be asked to coax her?!"

Paper scraps flew everywhere, and Xia Zhi hurriedly gathered the letters and threw them into the furnace to burn them into ashes.

"Young Master, why are you so angry? You are the granddaughter of the old master. Even if you don't go, I'm sure the old master won't blame you."

While Xia Zhi was trying to comfort the furious Li Changzai, she helped her to sit down on the couch. However, as soon as she offered her a cup of tea, Li Changzai waved his hand and knocked her to the ground.

"Humph!" Li Changzai sneered, "Go! Why not go?"

Xia Zhi was startled, "So... what do you mean, Master Yi?"

Li Changzai looked at Xia Zhi deeply, his carefully drawn willow-leaf eyebrows raised high along with the curve of his mouth.

"As a cousin, it is not reasonable for me not to take care of my sister. Moreover, she came from my Wensi Residence. If I don't take good care of her, wouldn't it seem that I am too cold and heartless?"

……

No matter what Li Chang intended to do, the Kunning Palace was peaceful and quiet at this moment.

When the little palace maid brought the news back to Kunning Palace, Aunt Ginkgo tiptoed into the small garden in the back hall.

"Your Majesty, Lady Shu has entered the palace."

Click!
Queen Ye held a pair of gilded scissors and slowly pruned the branches. The scissors were sharp, and as they opened and closed, a gorgeous peony fell from the branch.

"I heard that Concubine Shu suffers from a weak constitution, which is not conducive to the birth of offspring. In addition to the original reward, you should add a ginseng plant and a box of bird's nest. I hope she can take care of her health and give birth to children for the royal family as soon as possible."

"Yes, I will make arrangements now."

Aunt Ginkgo bowed and left.

In Changchun Palace, which was two streets away from Kunning Palace, the palace servants were also busy moving things under the command of Concubine Liang.

"This, and this, yes, put them all in... Hey, wait, don't forget the glass bottle that was sent as tribute from a foreign country..."

Even though there was an ice basin in the room and Ping'er was fanning her, Concubine Liang was still sweating from busying around with the palace maids.

"I wonder if these gifts sent by this palace are what Madam Shu wants..."

Perhaps it was really too hot, Concubine Liang took the pear blossom-handled brocade lotus fan from Ping'er's hand and put it to her neck and fanned herself hard.

Ping Erh offered a cup of fragrant tea, "Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. All of your gifts are priceless. In my humble opinion, Lady Shu is of humble origin, so she will definitely like the gifts you gave her."

Upon hearing that Concubine Shu had entered the palace, the Empress almost emptied the small storehouse.

Not to mention anything else, the piece of floating brocade that was worth a fortune was only given to her majesty, and she was reluctant to use it herself, but gave it to Concubine Shu. It can be seen how precious and rare the gift prepared by the majesty was.

Seeing Ping'er's painful look, Concubine Liang glanced at her unhappily.

"Look at how little you have accomplished. After all, Lady Shu has done Yu Yier a favor. If I don't express my gratitude, I will be laughed at."

"But she also benefited from our Third Prince's influence and was named Concubine Shu by the Emperor."

As soon as Ping'er grumbled, Concubine Liang glared at her unhappily.

"If you continue to be so outspoken, I won't be able to protect you."

"My lady..."

Ping'er's face turned pale. Concubine Liang couldn't bear to see her like this, so she just rolled her eyes at her and threw the fan into her arms.

"Alright, alright, this won't happen again! Go quickly and come back soon."

……

Noon, Fanghua Palace.

Shi Liu entered the inner hall in a flash, "My lady, Aunt Ginkgo is here."

Aunt Gingko, the head maid beside the Queen. Shen Qingtang put down the book, "Aunt, please come into the palace for tea first, I will be there soon."

"Yes, slave, go right away."

Almost one after the other, Shi Liu had just left Guanju Palace when Aunt Ginkgo, leading two little eunuchs, arrived at the gate of Guanju Palace.

"I am Shi Liu, your humble servant. I am honored to meet Aunt Ginkgo." Shi Liu knelt down and saluted. "It is very hot. Aunt Ginkgo has come all the way here. My lady, please come into the palace and have some tea to cool off."

Being treated with courtesy by the noble lady, Aunt Ginkgo nodded with a gentle smile.

"Thank you. I have something important to do today. I have seen Lady Shu and I need to go back to the Empress to serve her."

"Aunt, please——"

……

Following closely after Shi Liu, Aunt Ginkgo just stepped into the Fanghua Palace and her eyes lit up. Shen Qingtang had her hair tied up with a jade hairpin, and she was wearing a plain long skirt with layers of ribbons and large sleeves fluttering. She emerged from the inner palace like a fairy.

...Is this Concubine Shu?

When Aunt Ginkgo's mind was slightly shaken, Shen Qingtang said with bright eyes.

"This morning I heard magpies chirping on the branches. It turned out that my aunt came from afar. Please come in quickly, aunt."

If she doesn't give enough face to the people around the boss of the harem today, they might be made to suffer in the next second.

After all, she is just a little noble who has not yet been favored.

Shen Qingtang was not pretentious. She gave Aunt Ginkgo enough face. After Aunt Ginkgo came to her senses, she was also a little polite to her.

"Hello, Lady Shu. You are entering the palace today. I am here on the orders of the Empress to bring you a reward." No wonder she was given the title Shu. She is truly unparalleled in beauty.

While Aunt Ginkgo was feeling emotional, the two young eunuchs carefully placed all the rewards on the table. The most eye-catching ones were the century-old ginseng with complete roots and excellent appearance, and the white bird's nest with no impurities and crystal clear.

"I heard that you are weak, so the queen specially gave you a hundred-year-old ginseng and a box of top-quality bird's nest. I hope you can take care of your health as soon as possible so that you can have more children for the royal family."

Hearing this, Shen Qingtang was deeply moved, and she knelt down and saluted towards Kunning Palace.

"Thank you for your kindness, Queen. I will take good care of my body and live up to your expectations."

Without Shen Qingtang's instructions, Amber quickly put a large purse into Aunt Ginkgo's hand with a respectful look, "Thank you for your hard work, Aunt. Please have some tea."

The weight of the purse made Aunt Ginkgo's eyes and eyebrows look more gentle.

"Your Excellency has just entered the palace, so you must have some trivial matters to attend to. In that case, I will take my leave first."

……

After seeing off Aunt Ginkgo, Shen Qingtang sat on the beauty couch. Amber and the other two carried the Queen's rewards back to the inner hall. After counting and registering them, Amber walked to Shen Qingtang's side.

"My lady, the ginseng and bird's nest sent by the Queen are rare treasures, but considering your current physical condition, you need to take them gradually."

The implication is that these rewards are clean and flawless.

"In that case, let's put it aside for now." Shen Qingtang nodded and chuckled, "Thank you for your hard work. From now on, I will leave my Fanghua Palace to you."

Amber knows medicine, but she is not a member of the Shen family.

Instead, she was an orphan who was accidentally rescued by Shen Qingfeng. When she heard that Shen Qingtang was going to enter the palace, she volunteered to go into the palace with Shen Qingtang.

This also relieved Shen Qingtang's worries.

There are endless tricks in the harem, and having someone who knows medicine around can save you a lot of trouble.

Amber scratched her head sheepishly.

"You are too polite. If it weren't for the young master, I would have died long ago. Being able to follow you into the palace is a blessing I earned in my previous life."

As the two were talking, Shi Liu and An Lan, who had just finished tidying up the warehouse, came out from the inner room when they heard a sharp noise suddenly coming from outside Fanghua Palace.

"presumptuous!"

"Who do you think you are? How dare you stop my young master? Even if Lady Shu sees my young master, she has to respectfully call her sister!!"
