Shui Xiu was stunned for a moment and said: "Ru Liu? But that palace maid next to Shu Mulu? What is she going to do out of the palace at this time?"
Bai Gui didn't expect Shui Xiu to care so much, and said a little strangely: "She said she was going out to see her sick mother, and she also had a letter from Shu Mulu, Miss Shui Xiu, but what's the problem?"
"Of course there is a problem." Shui Xiu said with a cold face: "Eunuch Bai is the manager of the Jingshi Room. Logically, he knows many things better than me. It is not my turn to say anything. But in this matter, I thought Eunuch Bai did it."
It’s not appropriate.”
If another person had said this, Bai Gui would have lost his temper on the spot, but Shuixiu was a popular person around Concubine Xi. Even if he was unhappy, he would not dare to show it on his face, otherwise he would not be able to achieve the position he had worked so hard to achieve.
Know if you can keep it.
Thinking like this, Bai Gui smiled and said: "I don't know what is wrong, please let Miss Shui Xiu make it clear."
"Eunuch Bai and I are not strangers, so I won't go around in circles. Let me ask you, who is Shu Mulu? How can what she wrote be called a 'manuscript'?"
Shui Xiu's words stopped Bai Gui on the spot. After a long while, she rubbed her hands and said, "This... this... she used to be a noble person, so she is used to being called a noble person and has never changed."
Shui Xiu refused to give in and said: "Eunuch Bai also said that it was in the past, but now she is just a commoner. How can a commoner have the right to write a handwritten edict to let the palace maid leave the palace? Doesn't Eunuch Bai understand this rule?"
Bai Gui justified her mistake and nodded repeatedly at Shuixiu's words, "Yes, Miss Shui Xiu is absolutely right. This matter was indeed my fault. When Ruliu comes back, I will immediately tell her that she is not allowed to go out again."
Shui Xiu glanced at him coldly and said, "I hope Eunuch Bai can remember the rules of the palace this time and not make the same mistake again. Otherwise, I can only go back to your empress truthfully."
Upon hearing this, Bai Gui immediately panicked and waved her hands repeatedly: "No, please don't. I swear, I will never do it again. I also ask Miss Shui Xiu to be noble and don't alarm Concubine Xi. I'm here."
I would like to thank Miss Shui Xiu for her kindness."
"It's the best. I don't want to cause trouble to the master." After saying this, Shui Xiu took his waist card and left the minister's room, leaving Bai Gui in a cold sweat. He thought for a while and called out.
A young eunuch asked him to go to the palace gate and keep an eye on Ruliu. As soon as he saw Ruliu, he immediately brought him to the ministerial room.
At sunset, Ruliu came back from the palace with a tired look on his face. As soon as he stepped into the palace gate, he heard someone calling him. It was a somewhat familiar little eunuch. After thinking about it carefully for a while, he remembered that he was the servant of the Jingshi Room.
Yes, Zhudao: "But something happened?"
"Yes, Eunuch Bai sent an order to ask Miss Ruliu to go to the Jingsi Room to meet him as soon as she enters the palace." The little eunuch explained exactly what Bai Gui told him, and then led Ruliu to the Jingsi Room.
Go.
When they got there, Bai Gui was preparing the Green Head Card to be presented to Yinzhen tonight. When he saw Ruliu coming in, he quickly put down the things in his hands and walked over. He said with relief: "Miss Ruliu, you are finally back."
Ru Liu Xiuzie said inexplicably: "Why are Eunuch Bai so nervous? Is it possible that he is afraid that I won't return your badge?"
Bai Gui took the waist badge from Ru Liu and said, "Of course it's not that I can't trust Miss Ru Liu, but I have something to tell you."
Under Ru Liu's doubtful eyes, he said with some embarrassment: "From now on... Miss Ru Liu should not leave the palace again."
When Ruliu heard this, she almost jumped in. She had just got a clue about what Shu Mulu had explained. If she was trapped in the palace now, wouldn't all her previous efforts be wasted? Thinking of this, she quickly asked: "Eunuch Bai, what do you mean? "
"Don't ask what you mean. Anyway, during this period of time, Miss Ruliu should serve your wife well and don't leave the palace again."
Seeing that Bai Gui's words were very vague, Ruliu's eyes turned and said: "Eunuch Bai thinks that the gift given by my wife is too small? If so, everything will be easy to talk about. I will send you another generous gift later."
Shu Mulu knew that her status was not as good as before, so she took action more generously than before. Both Su Peisheng and Bai Gui took money from her, otherwise how could Bai Gui let her out of the palace so easily.
Bai Gui sighed and said, "I don't think it's my fault that my wife is too polite. I really have no choice but to do so!"
Bai Gui's words puzzled Ruliu and asked: "Eunuch Bai, what happened?"
"Well, to tell you the truth, shortly after you left the palace today, Shui Xiu, who was next to Concubine Xi, came to get the waist badge. It was all my fault. She said out loud that you didn't even come to get the waist badge today. , Unexpectedly, she made a fuss about this, saying that the lady is no longer a noble person, has no right to write a handwritten edict, and has no right to send people around her out of the palace. In short, she scolded me bloody, and then said, if there is another incident, Next time, she will tell Concubine Xi about this matter and remove me from my position as the steward of the Jingshi Room." Bai Gui said with a bitter face: "Now that Concubine Xi is in charge of the power in the palace, you think I am such a little person? How dare you disobey me when you are in charge, so I ask Miss Ruliu to talk to the lady and don’t make it difficult for me. If there is anything really wrong, or if Miss Ruliu is worried about her mother outside the palace, you can tell me that I will do it myself. Someone will be sent to take care of it."
It's Concubine Xi again! Ru Liu cursed inwardly, and said with a forced smile: "If that's the case, then I'll go back to my wife."
Upon hearing this, Bai Gui was immediately overjoyed and said quickly: "It's hard work like Miss Liu. Anyway, as long as I can do my best, I will try my best to help."
After coming out of the respect room, Ruliu's heart became very heavy. After quickly returning to Shuiyixuan, he told the Shu Mulu family about the matter, and then said worriedly: "Master, now this slave is also trapped in the palace. Things can’t be arranged.”
Shu Mulu put down the half-drinking ginseng soup in her hand and said, "Don't talk about it yet. Let me ask you, did you find any pregnant women after you went out today?"
"Returning to the master, the slave went around for a day and finally found two families. They were both in the same month as the master. They had already accepted the money, and the slave also promised them that as long as a boy was born by then, he would give birth to a boy again. Give them a large sum of money."
Hearing that Ruliu had found the person, Mrs. Shumulu was determined, nodded and said: "As long as we find the person, it will be fine. As for leaving the palace..."
Ru Liu said eagerly: "Master, you can't get out of the palace. Even if the two pregnant women give birth to boys, I won't be able to carry them into the palace. Not only will the work be in vain, but the money will also be wasted."
"Who said that? Have you forgotten what I said to you before?" In Ru Liu's puzzled eyes, she continued: "Su Peisheng is in the same boat as us, we have something to do, and he can't just sit back and watch. "
