After Shen Zhangqin left.
Wei Yi sat alone in the pavilion with a sullen expression. His fingers gripped the teacup tighter and tighter, as if he wanted to crush the cup.
His eyes were filled with a monstrous evil!
It was getting more and more intense!
Finally, the teacup in his hand was ruthlessly thrown to the ground. With a "bang", it smashed into pieces. Then, with a wave of his hand, the melon snacks on the table were also swept to the ground. Crackling sounds could be heard, and the floor was a complete mess!
The eunuch heard the commotion and immediately came in. He was stunned at the scene before him and quickly bowed. "Your Majesty?"
"Leave!" Wei Yi ordered.
The eunuch trembled, but his footsteps froze in place. Should he stay or leave?
Wei Yi glared at him. "Did you not hear what I said?"
The eunuch immediately retreated.
This emperor's heart was really fickle! No one could guess it.
Wei Yi's face was filled with ruthlessness. He clenched his fist and slammed it on the table.
His eyes became more resolute as he said, "Shu 'er, this time, I won't let you go."
He not only wanted the empire, he also wanted Ji Yunshu!
… …
Ji Wanxin followed the eunuch to the brocade office.
To put it bluntly, the brocade office was the place where clothes were made in the palace.
She was still thinking about the look in Wei Yi's eyes and his words. She did not come back to her senses for a long time. Her hands were still clenched together and her heart was heavy. She seemed to be sizing up something.
After entering the brocade office, the eunuch said to her, "Miss Ji, you will be working here from now on."
She bowed. "Thank you, eunuch."
"Miss doesn't need to thank this servant. His Majesty personally selected you to enter the palace, so you are naturally different from the other palace maids."
"Eunuch is too kind. Wanxin is just an embroidery maid here, just like everyone else."
He was a talkative one.
At this time …
The brocade office's manager, Granny Jiang, walked over. She looked at the eunuch, then at Ji Wanxin. "This is …?"
The eunuch said, "Granny Jiang, this young miss will be working here from now on. Please make the necessary arrangements."
The eunuch's tone was obviously different from when he spoke to Ji Wanxin.
He was polite to Ji Wanxin.
Towards Nanny Jiang, he used a commanding tone. The girl in front of her was delicate and pretty, just like a fairy. She had been in the palace for so many years, but this was the first time she had seen such a beautiful girl. She had an air of elegance that was not tainted by the mundane world, and her facial features were amiable. How could she be an embroidery maid?
My life! Those who didn't know better would have thought that she was a beauty who had just entered the palace!
"This girl is quite pretty, but what our brocade office wants is the work of our hands. Is that alright?"
Ji Wanxin lowered her gaze. "I learned it at home for a few years."
"It's good that you've learned." Nanny Jiang wandered around her with a scrutinizing gaze as she said, "In the past, you've been well-behaved here. Don't have those old habits. There are rules in the palace. If you do something wrong, you'll be punished. Do you understand?"
"Understood."
"Alright, you can stay."
"Thank you, Nanny Jiang." As the eunuch spoke, he pulled Nanny Jiang aside and said softly, "That girl is not an ordinary person. Nanny, you have to take good care of her."
Nanny Jiang was puzzled. "What does Father-in-law mean? Isn't she just a little palace maid? "
"She's not an ordinary person!"
"Oh?" Nanny Jiang's heart tightened. "Then who is she?"
"The Ji Family."
"The Ji Family? The Ji Family that committed treason in the past? Didn't the late Emperor forbid anyone from the Ji Family to enter the capital? " The eunuch immediately shushed her and signaled for her to lower her voice. Then he said, "It was the Emperor who personally summoned her to the capital. Moreover, it was the assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, Lord Shen, who brought her into the palace. Who knows, in the future, she might fly up the branches. As servants, we shouldn't talk too much. It's fine as long as we understand.
Nanny should understand, right? "
Oh!
Nanny Jiang suddenly understood and nodded. "So that's how it is. It turns out that she's a noble person!"
"Then I'll have to trouble Nanny to take good care of her."
"Don't worry. We've been in the palace for so many years, so we still have this bit of awareness. In short, just treat her like an ancestor."
The eunuch smiled and left after giving a few instructions.
Ji Wanxin sized up the brocade office. It was a large place and the architecture was very unique.
In the future, she would have to stay here!
After Nanny Jiang, who had always looked down on others, heard the eunuch's words, the way she looked at Ji Wanxin became much gentler. With a fawning expression, she smiled amiably and asked, "Miss, what's your name?"
Ji Wanxin slightly bowed. "Replying to Nanny, my surname is Ji, and my name is Wanxin."
"What a nice name!" Nanny Jiang held her hand and gently patted the back of it. She praised, "Miss, you look so refined and delicate. It's really a pity that you came to my place."
"Don't say that. It's my good fortune to be able to come here."
"You really know how to talk." Nanny Jiang looked at her like a servant seeing her master. Then she said, "Come come come, let's not stand here. I'll take you to the place where you live to have a look."
"Yes."
Nanny Jiang led her over.
Although the girls in the brocade office were called Xiu Niang, they were still palace maids in the end. They were servants ordered around by their masters, so they didn't have any preferential treatment.
Nanny Jiang brought her to a spacious bedroom. There was a big bed inside. It was resting time, so the Xiu Niang were chatting inside, talking about random things. Just as they were talking excitedly, the door was pushed open from the outside. Everyone's voices suddenly stopped, and they all turned to look at the door. They saw Nanny Jiang standing at the door with an unfamiliar woman.
Outside.
At that moment, everyone's eyes were almost attracted to Ji Wanxin.
That woman's beautiful and delicate face was reflected in everyone's eyes. She was like a fairy.
Just one glance was enough to make people remember her. Men would be moved when they saw her, and women would be envious when they saw her.
Who was this person?
Nanny Jiang took Ji Wanxin's hand and introduced her to everyone. "Listen up, this young lady will be a member of our brocade office in the future."
The Xiu Niang replied, "Yes!"
Then, Nanny Jiang said to Ji Wanxin, "From now on, you will live here. If you need anything, just tell Nanny. If Nanny can help you, I will definitely!"
She pulled her hand back and put it in her sleeve. "Thank you, Nanny."
"You're welcome." Nanny Jiang smiled at her, then turned and said sternly to the other Xiu Niang, "Don't cause trouble. Get along well, understand?"
The Xiu Niang replied in unison, "Yes, Nanny."
Nanny Jiang called out, "Ziwei."
The woman called Ziwei walked out from the group of Xiu Niang.
"Ziwei is here."
"Take good care of this young lady. If there's anything she doesn't understand, teach her."
