A complicated light flashed in Mei Xiang's eyes, and she carefully tied the silver ball in her hand to the bedside.
Smelling the faint fragrance, Arnold gradually fell asleep, and when he woke up again, it was already afternoon. There was no one in the room, and the room was not hot in early summer. The underground of the room was hollowed out, and there was a
The not-so-large ice cellar is below. Not far from the yard, a small stream flows by. If you listen quietly, you can hear a little bit of the stream flowing.
Her stomach growled loudly, and she hadn't eaten anything all day and night. She got up and walked to the table to pour a cup of tea, when someone walked in from outside the room.
Chuxue saluted her respectfully, "Miss, you're up!"
"Yeah!" Arnold responded casually.
Chuxue glanced at her naked feet, "We have prepared shoes for the young lady!"
Only then did Arnold look back at the bedside, where there was indeed a pair of exquisite embroidered shoes. She walked over and put on the shoes, "Is this okay?"
Chuxue fell to her knees with a "pop" and said, "I don't dare." Her head was lowered, and she didn't even dare to raise her eyes.
"Get up!" Arnold's tone was calm, as if he didn't care at all.
Chuxue's heart pounded. She was dissatisfied. Originally, she and Mei Xiang were maids in the palace, but they had never served anyone. Prince Hu Gechi had never allowed women to get close to him, and they also knew that there were no women in the palace.
The master doesn't even have a concubine.
The prince is so handsome and his status is so noble. If he is favored by the prince, then his life will be absolutely carefree. Therefore, that day, she and Mei Xiang were chosen by Wu Enqi, the prince's personal attendant.
When serving in the prince's courtyard, all the maids were envious and jealous. But unexpectedly, a strange woman lived in the prince's courtyard.
Arnold drank two more glasses of water and looked at Chuxue who was still lowering his head next to him, "Your name is Chuxue, right?"
"Yes, my name is Chuxue."
Arnold glanced at her up and down, "Are you and Mei Xiang from Yanjing?"
Chuxue was stunned for a moment, but she still replied respectfully, "He is from Yanjing."
Arnold understood something in his heart. It was precisely because they were from Yanjing that they didn't know her. When she was in the Yunnan Palace in Kaiping, Wu Yun had always taken care of her food and daily life, but now she didn't see Wu Yun.
."Where are the maids in Prince Kaiping's palace?"
Chuxue panicked for a while, why would this woman ask about the maids in Prince Kaiping's Mansion in Xiadu? Could it be that she had known their prince a long time ago?
"Forget it, go down and prepare some food for me!"
Chuxue took two steps and suddenly turned back, "Miss, I have only seen Aunt Wuyun in Kaiping, but not the others."
Arnold narrowed his eyes. Only Wuyun in the palace was Hu Gechi's personal maid. The other maids were just ordinary maids who did laundry and cooking. "What about Wuyun?"
Although Chuxue was a little surprised, she already understood that they did not know the woman in front of them, but Aunt Wuyun must know her. If the prince allows her to live in his yard, then she must have enough weight in the prince's heart. If so
If she can think highly of herself, maybe she will be lucky enough to be promoted as a concubine. "Aunt Wuyun went back to Kaiping a few days ago. I'm afraid she will be back in two days."
