Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 41 Your Loyalty Is Worthless!

When Nian Xuan was sent back to Xi Xingxuan, although she had been diagnosed, treated and bandaged, she was still covered in bruises.

Xijing, who had just been sent by Yun Fenghuang to get the meal, was shocked when he saw it: "How did this happen? Didn't you say that you were going to serve the Empress Dowager? It is said that the Empress Dowager is always generous... Could it be?"

Yun Fenghuang ignored her and told her to keep an eye on her for the past two days: "She is asleep now because she drank a sedative medicine. I'm afraid she will wake up at night. If she needs anything then, you can help her." As a favor...just sleep in the same room with her."

Xijing said: "Your Excellency, why don't you report such a big matter to the Queen?"

I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but she emphasized the words "such a big thing", which seemed to mean something.

"How big of a deal is this?" Yun Fenghuang sneered and said calmly, "Just a slave... Who do you think the Queen is, and where do you think Yanfu Palace is? You can disturb me whenever you want. When are you going to bother me?”

Xijing always felt that when she said "a mere slave" she was not just talking about Nianxuan, but also meant to criticize Huai. His face changed. Although Xile quietly pulled his sleeves, he still couldn't help but said: "This slave is indeed a slave." I came to serve you on the orders of the Queen, and I can do all kinds of things. But please don’t forget the Queen’s orders..."

"Do you know what the Queen's orders are?" Yun Fenghuang interrupted her, smiled, and sat down at the table slowly, "I know what you are thinking, it's just that you think you are from Yanfu Palace. , I, a nobleman who has no foundation and relies on the Queen’s recognition, should be frightened and fearful when using your service and dare not make mistakes? That’s why I entered the door of Huzhu Palace and became the master of my house, right?"

Xijing bit his lip, neither admitting nor denying, and just stiffened his neck to listen to her continue.

Xile wanted to say something, but Yun Fenghuang glared back at him, "A slave is a slave. A slave in Yanfu Palace is also a servant! Who gave you the courage to be disrespectful to me?! "

"My maid dare not be disrespectful to you." Xijing retorted while holding back her anger, "My maid is just worried about the Queen..."

"Who are you? You don't need to worry about the Queen's mission?" Yun Fenghuang said lazily, "Do you think you can share the Queen's worries? If you are really so capable, the Queen still has to worry about it. Do you have to find me, a little concubine who has only been in the palace for a few days?"

Xi Jing trembled with anger and said firmly: "Of course I am not as capable as the noble man! But I dare to say that I am absolutely loyal to the Queen..."

"So what?" Yun Fenghuang sneered, with disdain in the corners of his eyes and brows, and said in a manly voice, "What a noble person the Queen is. In this world, let's just say that the Lord of the Sixth Palace is willing to serve the Queen. Being loyal, willing to do everything for the empress, willing to go through fire and water for the empress... There are so many people like this, what's so rare? Do you think your loyalty is precious? You really think too much, you don't have much ability, Your loyalty is worthless!"

Xijing was about to burst into tears. He threw away Xile and tried to hold her hand. He choked and said, "My servant knows that I am humble. It is true that I am not a valuable person, but..."

"But what but?" Yun Fenghuang looked leisurely and interrupted her again, "What else can you emphasize repeatedly besides your worthless loyalty? Even if you say a thousand words or ten thousand words, it will change I can’t ignore the fact that you are just a slave! A slave should have the duty of a slave. It’s in vain that you came from Yanfu Palace, but you don’t even understand such a simple truth. It’s a disgrace to the Queen! You can’t even be a slave. , what other things do you expect to do, huh? If you are so capable, will the Queen bury you, an old man who has been serving in the palace for many days? "

She sneered, "Or do you think the Queen has wronged you by telling you to miss out on talents in Yanfu Palace?!"

Xijing finally couldn't help but cry out: "Your Majesty, if you don't like your maid, just say so. Why do you have to humiliate your maid over and over again?"

"Are you worthy of my repeated humiliation?" Yun Fenghuang chuckled, "You are just a slave with a heart as high as the sky and a life as thin as paper. Is it worth my trouble? Everyone works under the Queen, Queen. The empress has already arranged the order of superiority and inferiority. As a noble person, I should have commanded you, and as maids, you should also be commanded by me... I need to remind you again and again for something that can be explained clearly in just one sentence. The Queen is kind-hearted, I have to learn from her."

"If I were at home at this time, you would have been dealt with long ago!"

"My lord, my maids don't dare." Upon seeing this, Xile hurriedly pulled Xijing to kneel down with him, and said in a low voice, "My maids will never and dare not be disrespectful to your lord. The reason why Xijing spoke before you spoke. , in the final analysis, it is because Ningbi Palace has a bad reputation, and I am afraid that the noble will suffer a loss, so I act recklessly."

Yun Fenghuang glanced at her and said to Xijing: "Your companion is quite smart. You should learn more from it in the future. After all, our Xi Xingxuan will not be able to live in peace in the future because of what the Queen has explained. I'm not smart in front of you. I can only say a few words to you, but I won't really do anything to you. But other people may not be as kind and generous as me. It doesn't matter if you die when the time comes. I will be lost in front of those cheap maids. Face, don’t blame me for chopping up your body and feeding it to the dogs!”

Xijing: "..."

If it weren't for Xile pinching her arm constantly, she would have jumped up and fought for Yun Fenghuang!

"My maid, thank you." Only the servants can be good. If something goes wrong for the noble, how can the servants be better off? Although the servant is not sensitive, he still understands this principle. I am the first to come here today, and what I say is just empty talk. I will ask the noble to see next. Look, the maids are not those who cheat and play tricks."

Yun Fenghuang looked at her for a few times and smiled: "You are a person who can carry things clearly. Since I said so, let me explain to you. I entered the palace in a hurry and only brought Nianxuan with me. She is with The people I grew up with are naturally very affectionate. It’s just that my maid is a bit naive, and she can’t rely on others even if she wants to. Now she’s injured again, and once she’s healed, she’ll be able to run errands. , I don’t count on her anymore. If you serve her well, who else can I entrust to you if I don’t entrust you with everything in the future?"

Xile hurriedly kowtowed again and said loudly: "My servant will serve you with all your heart and soul!"

Yun Fenghuang nodded with satisfaction and asked them not to wait in front of them: "You guys are here, go and clean up your own place first, and I will eat by myself."

"The maids will all live here in the future, so there is no rush now." Xile said immediately, "Anyway, we can clean up quickly. Please allow me to serve you first."

Seeing her respectful and sincere look, Yun Fenghuang was very touched. Since entering the palace, he has worked hard day and night for so long, and finally achieved some success, and is living part of the life he once had...

This is the kind of manpower she should have around her!

After kneeling down in Yanfu Palace and coaxing him, when he came back to Xixingxuan, there were people kneeling down to coax him... This was the long-term solution.

Xile was not only good at talking, but also very efficient at work. He served Yun Fenghuang for dinner, and went to prepare the bathroom and hot water without any instructions. In the meantime, Xi Jing, who was crying silently, was dragged down. After a while, he said that Xi Jing was wiping the unbandaged areas of Nian Xuan, so Yun Fenghuang didn't have to worry.

After a while, Yun Fenghuang was resting in the bathtub with a suitable water temperature with his eyes closed. Xile came in and whispered softly that Nianxuan had woken up.

"Chenggui, why did your maid come back to Xixingxuan?" Nianxuan obviously had a very bad life these past two days. Although she woke up, she still looked weak and lacked energy, and her speech was slurred. Yun Fenghuang wanted to You need to distinguish carefully to hear clearly what she said.

"Of course I managed to get you back." Yun Fenghuang waved his hand for Xijing and Xile to go out, and asked in a low voice, "What happened to your tongue? Who did it?"

Nianxuan endured the pain and said: "No one did it. This servant didn't want to frame you according to their instructions, and couldn't bear the punishment, so she bit her tongue... but she was knocked unconscious after just biting it. After that, I kept stuffing it with cloth balls, but I couldn't continue to commit suicide."

"...You are really stupid." Yun Fenghuang was silent for a moment and said with a faint smile, "Who is your master? Can you handle it with just a little maid's frame-up? Then I would still throw you in there By the Shalu Pavilion, throw yourself into the water?"

Nian Xuan said seriously: "But the palace is no better than at home. Concubine Shu and Duke Yi are not reliable. If the maid says bad things about you, even if you can pass the test, it must be extremely difficult. At that time, my wife told the maid Qian I'll take good care of you, my servant is stupid, and I often fail to help you with your worries, which is already a disgrace to my wife... How can I still help the villain and cause trouble for you?"

Yun Fenghuang sighed: "You haven't recovered yet and are in low spirits. Stop talking and rest for now. Don't be impatient in serving me. Your master is now a nobleman. The Queen has rewarded two maids. Their names are Xijing and Xile. I have asked Xijing to take care of you for the past two days. You can rest peacefully and wait until you are ready."

"My maid has something to tell you." Nian Xuan saw her standing up to leave and said anxiously, "Concubine Yue and the others... I guess they have sent someone to the North to check on us!"

Yun Fenghuang said: "This is expected. There is nothing surprising. Let them investigate. Anyway, both Duke Yi and Concubine Shu swear that I am the daughter of the Yun family. So what if they find out? Guo Guo According to the laws of the court and the customs of the people, after adoptive adoption, it has nothing to do with the previous family...Why don't you let your majesty first postulate the title of the ancestors of King Fuyang?"

The anxious look on Nian Xuan's face did not dissipate. She pulled her sleeve with difficulty and whispered, "But you and Qi Zongzi..."

"I was engaged to be engaged to the eldest son of the Qi family, but it was all the words of my parents as a matchmaker, and there is nothing to be ashamed of." Yun Fenghuang disagreed, "The divorce was done openly and justly... What if they find out about this matter? ?”

She narrowed her eyes slightly, "Besides, this happened many years ago. The eldest son of the Qi family is three years older than me. He may have married a wife and had children by now... What's there to mention about the old past?"

Nian Xuan said sadly: "If it weren't for the eldest lady's matter..."

After all, she didn't finish her words of regret, she just said, "Congratulations to your noble sir for your promotion to the throne, but... why has your noble lady been promoted to the throne again?"

Is it a high probability that my master is causing trouble again?

How much had she missed in the past two days?

"Of course this is the kindness of the Queen." Yun Fenghuang smiled and tucked her in the quilt and stood up, "Okay, it's late at night. You continue to recover. If you have any questions, just tell Xi Jing. If she dares to disobey, you Tell me and I'll take care of her!"

The impulsive nature of Xi Jing was about to find excuses to polish off the edges, so it was just right for him to be sent to take care of Nian Xuan.

As for saying that Nian Xuan's temperament would not take the initiative to complain, it doesn't matter. Yun Fenghuang thinks he is good at finding fault with others.

After a few words of condolences, she went out directly and returned to the inner room, her face turned cold: Nian Xuan...is she still reliable?
