Ruyi shook his head, "No, no, although Jinju and Jinhe were a little harsh on me, I never suffered any hardship there."
Mo Yan smiled, "That's very good. How about you stay in Jinhua Palace first, and when I become the real queen, I will ask Concubine Ning for you to come over?"
Ruyi nodded repeatedly
Mo Yan asked some more about her situation in Jinhua Palace and the news about her family. After a while, Aunt Xu coughed outside, and Mo Yan asked Ruyi to leave and asked her to go back and wait for the news.
After Ruyi left, Aunt Xu led a little palace maid in
She knew that Mo Yan had moved into the Chuxiu Palace, and since they were all descendants of the first empress, they would not completely trust all the palace staff, so she arranged for a few newcomers to be seen by Mo Yan.
Mo Yan was observing the so-called bottle of hair oil again, and when he saw Aunt Xu coming in, he conveniently placed it on the round table.
"Your Majesty, this is the little palace maid who has just entered the palace. I think she is still honest, so I will put her next to you, okay?"
Mo Yan said with a disapproving attitude, "Didn't Wu Niang do a good job?"
Aunt Xu said, "There's nothing wrong with having one more person to serve the queen, right? Qiu Niang, why don't you say hello to the queen?"
"Slave...meet the queen...empress"
Silently looking at her, she has a round face and looks very honest, a little afraid of things. Every new palace maid will have this look, but this Qiuniang's eyes are clear. Aunt Xu is right, she is an honest girl.
He should be about the same age as Ruyi
"Go ahead," Mo Yan said gently.
Qiuniang stood up uneasily and walked to the front of Moyan
Moyan looked at it for a long time, then said with a smile, "Since it was recommended by my aunt, there should be nothing wrong with it, so you can stay."
Qiuniang was pleasantly surprised. She didn't expect that she would be able to serve the Queen as soon as she entered the palace. She quickly knelt down and said, "Thank you... Queen!"
"Don't thank me when you get up. If you want to thank me, thank my aunt."
Qiuniang got up quickly and wanted to thank Aunt Xu again. Unexpectedly, she was too busy and bumped the table. The celadon bottle on the table was knocked and shook, and then fell to the ground.
Qiuniang exclaimed and took the bottle with her hand...
The bottle was caught, but all the hair oil was spilled
The hair oil was sprinkled on the thick carpet, and a slight green smoke came out. It was a very faint green smoke. If you didn't pay attention, you would just think it was just some dust.
Moyan frowned, and then said calmly, "No need to clean up, you go down."
Qiuniang thought she had done something wrong and said uneasily, "But..."
Silently smiling, "It's okay. I have something to discuss with my aunt. You go down first."
Qiuniang glanced at Aunt Xu, nodded, and then retreated.
Aunt Xu didn't know why Mo Yan's mood suddenly changed, so she asked respectfully, "Mother, are you dissatisfied with this girl's rough hands and feet? I will choose someone who is more cautious..."
"No need, aunt, it's not because of this." Mo Yan shook his head and stared at the ground thoughtfully.
"Your Majesty..." Aunt Xu also looked at the ground, then looked at the celadon bottle and said, "Why does your Majesty have this kind of hair oil?"
Her expression was very solemn, as if the celadon vase was something untouchable
"Is there any problem?" He said silently without answering where it came from.
Aunt Xu thought for a moment and replied, "This hair oil is forbidden in the palace."
A trace of suspicion flashed across Mo Yan's face, "Forbidden items? It's normal for women to use hair oil. Although this celadon bottle looks like a good thing at first glance and is not something ordinary palace people can use, it shouldn't be a banned item?"
Aunt Xu smiled slightly, "Your Majesty is right, but the hair oil used by the ladies was arranged by people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and purchased from a royal store in the capital. The slaves have been serving the late queen, so the hair oil from the royal store
It’s a purple-red porcelain vase with a company name painted on it.”
"Auntie means that all the concubines in the harem use hair oil from the same store?"
