Shocking Harem Road: The Legend of Concubine Yi

Chapter 6
Xinyi never saw Yu and Ruoxi again, nor did she mention that matter to anyone.

The days in Yeting were tiring every day, but Xinyi couldn't forget that Yu Yu, who had a warm jade face, who was very indifferent to her and was a little wary of herself, and she had never seen the five girls who came in with Eunuch Nian.

Two months later, Xinyi was transferred from Ye Ting to the emperor's bedroom as an errand in Qianqing Palace, and became the personal court lady of Lan Zhen, an official waiting for imperial edict.The Shangguan of the Ministry of Internal Affairs said that "Ms. Zhuang is smart, diligent in doing things, and transferred to the top." Although it is just rhetoric, Xinyi is indeed very diligent.Niangong said that he must work hard, so that he can have a reason to be promoted.She kept this in her heart, no matter how hard she was, she would never complain.

The court ladies who knew her well in Yeting were all envious of her, saying that she really met a noble person, that she could be transferred to serve high-ranking female officials so quickly, and she was also a big celebrity around the emperor.But Xinyi knows that every step she takes is arranged by others, and only in this way can she climb up from the bottom step by step so that she will not be suspected.

After packing up two pieces of clothing, she followed Shangguan to Qianqing Palace.

On the way, Shangguan explained to Xinyi some things that should be paid attention to.

"Miss Lan has a weird temper. You should be more careful on weekdays. If you fail to do well, she will give us face!" Shangguan said in a low voice, and Xinyi nodded.

She also said: "Nian Gong and the bus took care of it, you just need to rest assured to work, don't worry about anything else!"

Xinyi showed surprise, and quickly returned to normal.

I don't know if this Shangguan is his own, but it seems that she and Nian Gonggong should be familiar with each other.

"Do you know which master used to live in that abandoned courtyard over Chengqian Palace?" Xinyi boldly asked Shangguan when she thought of Yu.

"Where? Chenhua Hall?" Shangguan showed fear, and Xinyi was taken aback.

"Have you ever gone in?" Shangguan asked, Xinyi only said, "I looked outside the other day, but I didn't dare to go in!"

"It's best not to go there," Shangguan said, "the Empress Dowager Feng always stayed there when she was alive, and after the empress dowager passed away, it will be abolished there. The emperor originally sealed it, and for some reason, it has been there for two years The seal has been torn!" Xinyi nodded.

"You, it's best not to go there, the palace says it's haunted!" Shangguan said.

"Isn't Queen Mother Feng the emperor's biological mother?" Xinyi's curiosity was aroused, and she asked, "Since she is the biological mother, why did the emperor seal that place?"

Shangguan sighed, and said: "It's all old stuff! For your own sake, don't ask about it, and don't go near it, remember?" Xinyi had no choice but to nod. Go there and see if you can run into Yu again!

"Eunuch Nian thinks highly of you, you should do things in a well-behaved manner, and be careful not to get into trouble!" Shangguan warned, Xinyi accepted the order.

Since it's so dangerous there, it's better not to go, she thought so.

Yeting is located on the west side of the palace city, and on the east side of the palace city is the prince's residence - the East Palace.It's just because the current emperor Ming Xuanyu is now, and the concubines in the harem have nothing to do so far.Since he moved from the East Palace to Qianqing Palace six years ago to succeed him, the East Palace has been idle.

Qianqing Palace is located at the intersection of the former dynasty and the rear palace. To the north is the rear palace and the imperial garden known as the Forbidden Garden. To the south is the former dynasty, where ministers handle state affairs.

Xinyi was taken to a courtyard named Liuyunxuan, north of the corner gate on the east wing of Qianqing Palace, where her master Lan Zhen lived.Lan Zhen is ranked fourth, a high-ranking female official, so she has her own courtyard.There, Xinyi met two other maids serving Lan Zhen, Chu Xue and Chu Nian. They were both older than Xin Yi, and there was also a young eunuch named Xiao Yunzi. The four of them were Lan Zhen's servants.

The main room to the north is Lan Zhen's room, the east wing is larger and belongs to the three of Xinyi, and the west wing is smaller and belongs to Xiao Yunzi.Both Chuxue and Chunian have followed Lan Zhen for several years, so they are responsible for food and daily life, etc. Xinyi is a newcomer, and she does cleaning and other chores with Xiaoyunzi.

When Xinyi arrived, Lan Zhen was taking a lunch break in the room, and the Minister of Internal Affairs waited until Lan Zhen woke up before going in with Xinyi to report.
