It was not easy for the empress to get to where she is today. It is clear that the most beautiful person in the harem is Concubine An, but there are still people who are keeping an eye on the empress. The person behind that is really hateful.
At this moment, Feng Jiu naturally hoped that Mu Ci would not accept Liu Xin.
Mu Ci, however, had his own opinion and said softly: "Even if I push someone away, there will still be people who find ways to push people in. They think that a beauty like me is unworthy, and even if I push people in, there is nothing I can do to them. Or maybe
That person also thought that Liu Xin was an acquaintance of mine, which would make it easier for him to attack me in the future. In that case, why not leave the person behind and see what new tricks those people can play in front of me!"
Even if Liu Xin is pushed back this time, will the person behind him just let it go? Obviously not possible.
At least she has a certain understanding of Liu Xin. It won't be a big deal if it's placed in Yong'an Palace.
When Feng Jiu saw Mu Ci saying this, he couldn't object anymore.
He also knew that the empress had many obstacles in her career since she returned to the harem, because her status was not as good as before. In addition, the empress had many enemies in the harem, and many people wanted to get rid of her.
No matter how much the emperor dotes on the empress, the empress cannot always bother the emperor with such trivial matters. The empress is not a dodder, she is very independent.
Since the empress feels it's okay, she can just stay.
It was all Guifei An's good start.
Concubine An first sent Aluo and Amei to Yong'an Palace, and then they gave birth to Luo Xin and Liu Xin.
After Liu Xin was left in Yong'an Palace by Mu Ci, she came in to greet Mu Ci and recognize her as her master.
She said her greeting carefully, and then quietly looked at Mu Ci and the four maids standing beside her.
The four maids stood respectfully beside Mu Ci, standing as straight as a pine tree. They looked at her intently, as if they had never recognized her.
The Yingchun she knew in the past was fussy and restless, but now he has calmed down, as if he has become a different person.
As for Mu Ci, his expression was unclear and his eyes were quite gentle. Just looking at her like this, his clear pupils seemed to be able to penetrate the darkest corners of her heart.
Although Mu Ci didn't know her true identity, at this moment she felt that Mu Ci's eyes seemed to see everything, which made her feel unsure.
"There are enough servants in Yong'an Palace, but you are originally one of Muxue's subordinates, so I will accept you for the time being. As for whether I can keep you, I have to ask the emperor what he wants. If I, a beauty like me, have too many
I'm afraid you'll be criticized for being served by people in the palace. In other words, what did the person who assigned you here think? Knowing that according to the rules, Yong'an Palace can't be served by so many people, why do you still go to Yong'an Palace and let others see?
I just want to say that the emperor has pampered me to the point of being lawless, so it’s not the emperor’s intention to transfer you here.” Mu Ci spoke slowly.
Every word she said was to the point.
Liu Xin had been mentally prepared before coming here, and she was not restrained in her answers at this time. She replied respectfully: "In reply to the master, it was the slave who took the initiative to come to Yong'an Palace. The prince also said that it was not in line with the rules of the harem.
, I still want to give it a try, because I used to serve Concubine Shu. After Concubine Shu moved into the North Palace and closed the entire harem, the master I trust most now is only you..."
This was the wording she had prepared a long time ago, so she didn't know if Mu Ci would believe it.
"I don't seem to have any friendship with you. Not to mention you, a slave, even with Concubine Shu, I have no friendship with her. To be precise, I still have old grudges with Concubine Shu. You are Concubine Shu's old servant, how can I
Knowing that you are approaching me, do you want to avenge your old master?" Mu Ci said in a cool tone.
Liu Xin's face changed slightly and she quickly answered: "It's nothing. I have admired my master for a long time, how could I do something so treasonous?"
When she raised her head, she met Mu Ci's emotionless eyes.
Under Mu Ci's gaze, she held her breath, blushed, and said calmly: "As time goes by, people's hearts will be revealed. The master can carefully observe the slave before deciding whether the slave can be used."
"It's a good saying that will last for a long time. That's all. You can stay here for now." Mu Ci pondered for a moment, then said, "I don't lack people to take care of me. You can do some rough work in Yong'an Palace."
Liu Xin did not dare to object.
She had prepared for the worst before coming here. Mu Ci had always been scheming, and there was a high probability that he would not keep her.
Now that she can be on duty in Yong'an Palace, it is much better than she expected.
As long as you can stay in Yong'an Palace, nothing will be a problem.
"Thank you, Master. I will do my duty well and live up to Master's expectations!" Liu Xingui kowtowed twice: "I feel that Master will have the last laugh in the future. Even the Imperial Concubine is no match for Master."
"Stop saying such unreliable things, stay on duty and step back." Mu Ci waved his hand, indicating that Liu Xin could leave.
Liu Xin kowtowed again to thank him, and then left.
Yingchun looked at Liu Xin's back and whispered: "I don't know what her purpose was in running into Yong'an Palace. I still have to be careful to avoid getting into her trap."
Mu Ci was also thinking about the same question.
"Ji Rou, can she know martial arts?" Mu Ci asked.
Jirou answered truthfully: "I just observed the details and it seems that I don't know how to do it. If not, she must be a powerful master."
"She definitely won't." Mu Ci thought thoughtfully.
The four maids all looked at Mu Ci, wondering why the empress was so determined.
"You have forgotten that this is the harem. The emperor often walked around Xihua Palace in the past. Don't forget that the emperor's martial arts are also unfathomable. If a maid has strong martial arts, even if she is good at hiding, you think she can escape from the emperor.
Eyes?" Mu Ci smiled.
The four maids shook their heads in unison.
The empress must have thought clearly. Yao Feier could not take such a risk and put a palace maid with unfathomable martial arts skills under the emperor's nose. This would be tantamount to exposing herself.
"As long as Liu Xin doesn't have the skills, she has nothing to fear." Mu Ci concluded.
This way Liu Xin wouldn't be able to eavesdrop on their conversation from a long distance away.
Dugu Liancheng favored Tao Jieyu and Liu Chongyuan one after another. It seemed that he finally remembered Mu Ci and finally showed up at Yong'an Palace.
Mu Ci took the opportunity to mention Liu Xin's entry into Yong'an Palace with him.
"Liu Xin?" Dugu Liancheng was a little surprised when he saw Liu Xin.
Lan Xin had already been dealt with, but Liu Xin never expected to be on duty in Yong'an Palace.
"I heard that they were sent here by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It's funny to say that there are so many palace servants serving Yong'an Palace. Will they be criticized?" Mu Ci glanced at Liu Xin who was kneeling on the ground.
After entering Yong'an Palace, Liu Xin worked diligently, never slacked off, and had a very upright attitude. Liu Xin who had been in Xihua Palace also gave people a good impression, and she once misjudged him.
If she hadn't known about Liu Xin's strange origins early on, she would have been fooled by this woman.
