It's still a wet and cold weather. The yard where the inferior slaves live is in the southeast corner of the fashion shop of the imperial palace. There are crowded courtyards and clothes racks on the open space, so it's difficult to walk at will.

In the crowded small rooms, there are large bunks, and more than a dozen people have to sleep. Besides the bed, there is no room for anything else in this room. The servant girls rubbed their own baggage, wrapped it up and put it under their heads as pillows.

They are always busy all the time. All the dirty and tiring work that the superior servant girls didn't want to do was thrown to them.

The jailer took Yue Lingxin and mammy Li to the door and threw them in.

"Empress!" mother Li ignored herself and climbed over to help the thin Yue Lingxin up. After only one night's rest, Yue Lingxin's body did not recover well.

"I'm fine. Go in." Yue Lingxin looked around. The busy servant girls didn't stop to look at them. It seemed that this kind of thing was already common here. Many people here made mistakes and were demoted. It's not surprising who was more or less.

Mother Li carefully helped Yue Lingxin and sat down near the door.

"Stop first, madam, and the maid will pour you some water."

Mother Li went to the side of the low cabinet and picked up the teapot, but found it empty. There happened to be a servant girl passing by in a hurry. Mammy Li quickly grabbed her and said, "there's no water in the pot. Go and fetch some water for my mother."

"Don't you have long hands?" the servant girl stared at mammy Li impatiently.

"How do you talk? Do you know who that is over there? Believe it or not..."

"Why? Still want to hit people?" the servant girl raised her chest, but it seemed that old and weak mammy Li was much weaker.

"You!"

"I don't know who I am. When I come to such a place, I still want to show off my strength? I really think I'm still a empress or a young lady? If she's a empress, I'm still a imperial concubine!" the servant girl said angrily and glanced at Yue Lingxin sarcastically.

"You girl!" mammy Li saw that she was going to do it, but she was stopped by Yue Lingxin.

At this point, what face do you have to call others?

Mother Li had no choice but to put Yue Lingxin to bed first, and then go out to find a place to hold water. Unexpectedly, Yue Lingxin just sat on the bed. Two servant girls came in outside the door. One of them pointed to them and shouted loudly, "what are you doing? I dare to sleep in my bed? Who told you to go up! Come down, come down!"

The servant girl rushed up and grabbed Yue Lingxin to drag her out of bed. In addition, the servant girl came up to help.

"What are you doing? My mother is in poor health. Don't do this!" mammy Li grabbed and pulled with the two servant girls to protect the Lord.

"New comer, right? Do you understand the rules? Is this where you can sleep? Get away quickly and don't dirty sister qin'er's bed!" the little servant girl who helped me scolded under the guise of a tiger.

"How dare a servant girl dare to show her authority in front of me? I......" mammy Li asked to mention her past glory. Unexpectedly, the servant girl named qin'er and the assistant did not buy her account at all. Before she finished, they lifted Yue Lingxin to the ground.

"Empress!" mother Li quickly helped Yue Lingxin up.

Yue Lingxin looked up at the woman who wanted a bed. Obviously, he was more arrogant than others. This bed is close to the door. It is the most spacious place with the best lighting. Most of those who can sleep here have some prestige among the servant girls. No wonder the little servant girl has been helping.

Yue Lingxin didn't want to offend such a person so soon, otherwise the future would be more sad, so he grabbed mammy Li.

"Forget it, Mammy Li, let's find another place." Yue Lingxin clenched mammy Li tightly for fear that mammy Li would do something stupid on impulse. She took mammy Li to a corner and sat down. The cold and humid weather near winter was harmful to Yue Lingxin's health.

But there's no way. Yue Lingxin was not afraid of hardship, but comforted mammy Li: "when I went out with my father, the environment was much worse than this. I should be glad I can sleep in a soft bed now." as she said, she patted the bed board, and the hard board echoed "bang bang". Yue Lingxin couldn't help sticking out his tongue in embarrassment.

"Madam, you rest here first. The maidservant goes out to fetch some hot water. You look so dirty!" mammy Li looked at Yue Lingxin with a disgusting face and went out.

At this time, it was almost lunch break, and some servant girls came back to rest one after another. In fact, they can rest for a short time, that is, just take a nap.

Gossip spread behind his back.

"It is said that the new woman is the former queen."

"Can't you? The one over there?"

"I have a sister who works in the harem. She said it herself."

"Tut Tut, what a sin! The dignified queen has been reduced to our inferior room. I don't know what great crime she has committed."

"Well, don't you understand? There are only a few things in the back palace. If the emperor has Zhu Guifei and loves her, the queen will naturally hinder her eyes."

"So I'm a poor man."

"What a pity! You haven't heard how arrogant the queen used to be in the harem, causing the empress to miscarry. This time, she even drugged Zhu Guifei, the emperor's favorite, and let Zhu Guifei miscarry. Do you think the emperor can accommodate her?"

"The emperor is really blind for such a vicious woman, so he can make her queen."

"Who let people have a good baby and have a father who is a general? But now, the Yue family can't do it. I heard that this time, the emperor demoted the abbot as a border order and sent him to the north border to guard the border! Oh, no, you can't call the Abbot now, after all..."

When Yue Lingxin heard this, his indifferent heart finally started a ripple. She suddenly raised her head, looked for the woman who had just spoken, staggered a few steps, grabbed the man and asked, "what did you say? What did you say about General Yue?"

The woman was startled by Yue Lingxin's reckless behavior and said unhappily: "the emperor ordered that Yue Jintian be demoted to the border garrison. The imperial edict came down yesterday. Everyone knows what you stare at me for, and I didn't talk nonsense!"

Yue Ling stepped back two steps.

No, no, she doesn't believe it!

Is it because of the affairs of the harem that Jiang Yuyi is angry with his father? Did she want her injured father to go all the way to the border in order to punish her?

"Bang." the sound of broken ceramics came from behind.

Yue Lingxin looked back and mammy Li stood at the door. Seeing Yue Ling's heart, Mammy Li didn't open her face and walked out, as if she was deliberately avoiding. Yue Lingxin noticed it, took a few steps to catch up, grabbed mammy Li, and asked, "mammy Li, do you know this, right? Tell me, it's not true!"

"Empress..." mammy Li lowered her head and twisted her fingers in embarrassment.

Her pinched answer made Yue Lingxin understand in an instant.

"Is this true? Emperor, how can he... How can he... I'll find him!" Yue Lingxin ran to the yard.

Mother Li grabbed Yue Lingxin's arm and said anxiously, "madam, you can't go. The master volunteered to go to the border!"

Yue Ling's heart and body stiffened and looked back at mammy Li incredulously.

His father spent his whole life in the army before he laid the foundation of the Yue family in Kyoto. Everything he had was here, and his home was here. How could he ask to leave Beijing and go far to the southern border to garrison the border?

Suddenly, a light flashed in Yue Ling's mind.

"Father, is he... For me?"

Yue Lingxin recalled that when Jiang Yuyi tortured her yesterday, father-in-law Qin whispered to him, and Jiang Yuyi hurried away. When she woke up from her coma, she got his edict to avoid her death and was sent to be a Cheap slave.

Can it be said that all these changes are because my father begged Jiang Yuyi?!

"Empress... Don't live up to the master's hard work! He wants you to live well. You must not act impulsively!" mother Li firmly grasped Yue Lingxin and refused to loosen her mind.

Yue Lingxin can almost imagine the picture. His old father knelt in front of Jiang Yuyi and begged him to let her go this time. The price his father must pay for this is the only military power left in his hands

"No, no, it shouldn't be like this. Dad, how can he sacrifice himself and the whole Yue family for me?" Yue Lingxin clenched his teeth and held back his tears.

"In my life, I haven't grasped any power or seen any scenes, but the most precious thing in his heart is the empress. For the sake of the empress, power and utility are nothing but external things, and the most thing he can't see is the suffering of the empress!" Mama Li comforted painstakingly. She was afraid that Yue Lingxin would argue with Jiang Jianyi about this matter again, May make things self defeating.

Compared with putting Yue Lingxin in prison, it's the best result that they are well now.

Yue Ling's heart dropped her hand, and the corners of her mouth had been bitten by herself, with a faint fishy smell surging up.

"When will my father leave?"

After a while, Yue Lingxin finally calmed down and asked with difficulty.

Mammy Li thought, "the edict was made yesterday. Let the general leave the next day - it should be today!"

As soon as the voice fell, Yue Lingxin ran out.

today! Today, my father will leave the city and go to the border, but she almost doesn't know anything!

Yue Lingxin rushed to the palace gate, but was stopped by the guard.

"You let me out! I have something important to get out of the palace. Get out of the way!" Yue Lingxin didn't have the patience to explain to them slowly. Now she was full of father's things and was almost out of her mind.

"No one can leave the palace without leaving the palace! Don't delay us on duty, get out!" the bodyguard pushed Yue Lingxin to the ground.

Yue Lingxin's elbow was scratched on the ground and bled. Regardless of the pain, she bit her teeth and stood up. She still wanted to rush out.

"If you don't make trouble any more, don't blame the official. I'm not polite! Palace people who break into the Palace door can kill first and then play. Anyway, people like you are dead and nobody cares!" the guard shouted impatiently.

"You!" Yue Lingxin didn't expect her to be beautiful for a long time, but the tiger fell flat and the sun was bullied by the dog. Now even a small palace guard dares to bully her!

Don't say the bodyguard hasn't seen what the Queen looks like. I'm afraid he despises Yue Lingxin even if he knows her identity. Now Yue Lingxin knew that the human feelings in the palace were so cold and warm that she really stayed in the ivory tower for a long time before she thought there was nothing she could not do in the world.

But if she can't go out now, she doesn't know whether she will have a chance to see her father in her life!

Yue Lingxin clenched his hands into fists.

If they won't let her, she'll have to break in!

Suddenly, someone gently held her wrist.
