When Jiang Tang woke up again, it was already the morning of the second day.\r
She could feel a foreign body sensation with the slightest movement. She was slightly sluggish, the memory of last night came back to her, and her cheeks were slightly red.\r
She sat up from the bed, her long black hair flowing behind her like water, wrapping her exquisite white body, and the crimson traces on her collarbone recorded what had happened.\r
[The male protagonist left before dawn.]\r
When the system saw that Jiang Tang was awake, it whispered to her some "little things" that happened after she fell asleep.\r
For example, the palace maid named Pearl has been guarding outside the courtyard, playing the role of "gatekeeper"; another example is that someone took care of her body with his own hands after she fell asleep.\r
Jiang Tang was not surprised. From the first day she came here, she knew the situation of the house she was staying in from the systematic description. It had all the internal organs and even a small kitchen that could boil water for cooking, but she "didn't need it".
So I've never used it.\r
Last night... I guess it was the first time I used it.\r
However, it once again shows how arrogant some people are.\r
Hearing Jiang Tang's voice, the system wanted to remind her: In fact, you and he, the host, are evenly matched. You two didn't even consider the old emperor's name!\r
But it doesn't have the courage.\r
-\r
Since the side palace was burned down, Jiang Tang's new task is to deliver meals to the empresses in the cold palace.\r
Originally, Nian Nian was worried that she would not be able to lift the food box because she was too slender, but after Jiang Tang's "active" performance, she agreed and did not change it again.\r
By the time Jiang Tang arrived, today's breakfast cart had already been delivered, and it was just waiting for the palace guests to take it away and deliver it.\r
"Haitang, why are you here? Didn't Zhu'er say that you are not in good health and have a day off today?"\r
Before Jiang Tang could get closer, he was greeted enthusiastically by a somewhat familiar palace maid.\r
Jiang Tang was slightly startled, and the system immediately searched it to confirm that it was true.\r
"She said you weren't feeling well, so she went to deliver food to you."\r
The harem comes quickly to try to flatter everyone, and the cold palace is even worse. They are all a group of concubines who have no future. The palace people can give them away if they like, and forget one or two meals if they don't want to. There is nothing they can do about it. Even steamed buns and pickles are considered good treatment, and even more
What's more, there are those who maliciously deprive and humiliate, give only rotten food, and squeeze and oppress.\r
Jiang Tang is quite "kind" and basically provides her daily meals. And because of Aunt Nian's care, the number of people she is responsible for is also small, only three or five concubines in one palace.\r
People in the cold palace have few things to do and don't get much attention. Apart from anything else, as long as they don't care about fortune and have someone to protect them, it's really just an idle job.\r
In addition, Jiang Tang also has an "independent" yard and special treatment. Hey, somehow, the more I think about it, the more I feel that this job is not bad.\r
"...Haitang, did you hear what I said?"\r
The voice of the palace maid next to her called Jiang Tang's attention back.\r
"Yes, I heard it," Jiang Tang smiled softly, not showing that he had just been distracted: "You said that as long as you get the gift of favor from the master, you will have the opportunity to leave the palace and get married, right?"\r
"Yes, yes," the palace maid nodded fiercely: "There is another way. If you are favored by those high-ranking adults, they can also propose marriage to the emperor."\r
Jiang Tang nodded, understanding but not understanding, what does this have to do with her?\r
The girl in front of you has eyes as clear as water, and the water is shining. She glances at you, and even though she is a woman, she can't help but feel her heart beat.\r
And I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but today’s girls are more charming and charming than usual, which makes people feel short of breath just by looking at them.\r
"That's right, do you know Commander Lu?"\r
The maid subconsciously avoided Jiang Tang's eyes before continuing: "This is the gentleman who has been investigating these days.\r
Mr. Lu is the son of a high-ranking official. He was born with a title. He is twenty-five years old and has not yet been married. He became the commander of the Imperial Guard at a young age. It can be said that he has a bright future and is the son-in-law of many aristocratic families in Beijing. "
\r
Jiang Tang slowly typed a "?" in his mind.\r
"You don't understand?" Seeing her confused eyes, the palace maid asked.\r
Jiang Tang keeps smiling.\r
But the other party suddenly pursed his lips and smiled, with a hint of teasing in his eyes: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, your luck lies behind."\r
After saying that, she took away the rice bowl she had finished for Jiang Tang: "I washed it for you, you're welcome."\r
Jiang Tang:……\r
"What does she mean? Does she mean what I think?"\r
The system was silent for a while: [It seems to mean that, but the system is not sure.] \r
Jiang Tang:……\r
She must have opened it the wrong way. I'll take a nap later and wake up sober.\r
But God didn't give her the chance to take a nap.\r
Not long after lunch, a strange little eunuch came over and reminded her that she could go to Liangyixuan to prepare for the selection for the Summer Resort.\r
Selection?\r
When Jiang Tang heard these two words, his brows jumped, thinking that he heard them wrong.\r
But when she got there, she realized that she hadn't thought too much.\r
[There are... quite a lot of people.] The system was surprised: [Isn’t it just a matter of finding a palace maid who can make tea?] \r
Jiang Tang didn't speak, his face looked calm, but the system had determined that his host was not in a good mood.\r
I came to Sheng Meiren because he knew she had the ability to send her into the team, but he was so good that he directly gave her such an eye-catching place, as if he was deliberately retaliating for suppressing her before.\r
[Host, do you want to go? It feels like a lot of people are looking at you as soon as you come in.] \r
The system knows that its host likes to develop in secret. She rarely directly participates in the setting of the protagonist among this group of people.\r
"Go ahead. It's too late to change."\r
After Jiang Tang finished speaking, she walked over and queued up. Even if everyone's eyes fell on her, she didn't care.\r
Gradually, other people withdrew their gaze.\r
"... Don't worry, Mr. Lu, I will send someone to deliver it to you after the candidate is confirmed."\r
The head eunuch of Liangyixuan respectfully sent the person out, but found that the man in front of him took two steps and stopped suddenly:\r
"What is she doing here?"\r
"What?"\r
The chief eunuch was stunned for a moment, then looked over and saw the maids queuing up to sign up in the courtyard under the scorching sun.\r
I'm a little unsure who this person is looking at, but I don't want to delay him and send him a gesture of goodwill:\r
"These are the palace ladies who want to accompany us to the summer resort, but are they in the eyes of adults? Do we need a small one...?"\r
The head eunuch smiled and raised his hand to make a "stuck" gesture.\r
Lu Xiao looked at the slender figure in the crowd and said nothing.\r
-\r
"Go back and wait for news."\r
Following the words of the eunuch opposite, Jiang Tang stood up, gave a gentle salute, and then left.\r
She arrived quite late, there were not many people in the courtyard anymore.\r
Jiang Tang is very satisfied with her performance. As long as her eyes are not blind, she is the only choice.\r
Of course the system is 100% optimistic about its own host, and the rainbow farts keep coming.\r
"Okay, I know everything..."\r
An embroidered spring knife was placed in front of her without warning, blocking her path, and Jiang Tang's voice stopped abruptly.
