The floor of the house is very small, and there are two people supporting me. There is very little room for me to move around.
At my insistence, two maids helped me walk to the hall.
As I walked, I asked the two maids of about the same length who were supporting me: "What are your names?"
From left to right, the two maids said: "My name is Chunxia."
"My name is Qiudong."
four Seasons?
"Are you sisters?"
These two people look very similar and have a series of names, which inevitably makes me think that they are sisters.
"yes."
"yes."
The two people responded in unison and answered my question.
I nodded, understanding.
Because it was winter, the doors in the house were closed to prevent the cold wind from entering.
Not many people knew that I got out of bed.
Except for spring, summer, autumn and winter, the maids guarding the courtyard are not required.
"I said this Concubine Xi is really pitiful."
A maid's voice came and mentioned me. Spring, summer, autumn and winter wanted to go out, but I stopped them.
I thought that this maid who said I was pitiful could tell me how pitiful I was.
I quietly listened to the maid's words.
After that, the maid did not speak. Instead, another maid said: "Cui He, stop talking nonsense. If Concubine Xi can hear you, you will die."
The maid said she was worried, but the maid named Cui He didn't seem afraid of me.
She said: "So what if you hear it, Lu Shuang, you are just timid. Concubine Xi is bedridden now. How could she hear what we say outside?"
The man named Lu Shuang said again: "Cui He, you really should stop talking nonsense. The emperor said that you can't mention that matter again, or Concubine Xi will know about it..."
Before Lu Shuang could finish her words, she was snatched away by Cui He.
"So what if I hear it? If I hear it, I can't do anything. Isn't it just that the maid is dead?"
Na Cuihe said it didn't matter, and deliberately amplified his voice, as if he thought I couldn't hear him.
"Cuihe, you really should stop talking nonsense."
The maid named Lushuang was extremely frightened. She was so frightened that she died after Cuihe's loud call.
"Lvshuang, what I told is the truth, not a lie, what are you afraid of! Hey! This Concubine Xi is so pitiful, she was stabbed and almost died, and her personal maid drowned in the pond.
You said the water in the pond was frozen, how did she break through the ice and get in?"
