Xiang Huan came out of Xiu He Palace and went to Yong Shou Palace. She did not go to the Department of Internal Affairs. In all these years, she had never gone to Yong Shou Palace with such urgency. In the past, Yong Shou Palace was a place they could only dream of. She had to politely avoid the little palace maids that served inside. The present was different. She felt that she finally had a chance to lift her eyebrows.
She raised her chin and straightened her back as she walked into Yong Shou Palace. In the past, she didn't dare to look too much, and could only look at the ground. Today, she saw that Yong Shou Palace was so exquisite. Xiu He Palace couldn't even compare to a corner of this place.
In the future, maybe Shu Fei would be able to live in Yong Shou Palace.
This place was large and beautiful, every place exquisite to the extreme. There was no palace in the palace that could compare to this place. The Emperor really doted on the Empress in the past, but so what? After a while, it was hard to say if the Empress would still be able to live here.
"Who are you? Why are you here? " Dai Mei walked out of the main hall and saw Xiang Huan looking around. She frowned. Who was this palace maid? Why did she look unfamiliar? What was she trying to do by sneaking around the Eternal Life Palace?
Xiang Huan took her gaze back and turned to look at Dai Mei. With a glance, she recognized this was the personal palace maid of the Empress. A strong sense of vanity rose from the bottom of her heart. "I am the chief palace maid of Xiu He Palace. I heard that your Yong Shou Palace has not gone to the Department of Internal Affairs to collect the autumn rations. I came to ask what is going on."
Dai Mei smiled when she heard Xiu He Palace. She looked coldly at Xiang Huan and sharply said, "I have troubled you. The things of our Yong Shou Palace are all personally delivered by the Department of Internal Affairs. No one has said when we should go collect the rations. Has the rules of the palace changed or something? The Department of Internal Affairs still needs a servant of your Xiu He Palace to pass on the message."
"Do you think it is the same as before? You really don't have any self-awareness." Xiang Huan saw that Dai Mei was still the same as before and felt angry inside. The entire hougong knew that Yong Shou Palace had fallen out of favor, but these servants still dared to be so arrogant.
"What does it have to do with you if I have self-awareness or not? Please leave here. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite." Dai Mei coldly said.
Xiang Huan let out a shrill laugh. "You're welcome? Then let's see how impolite you can be. I kindly reminded you to go to the Department of Internal Affairs to get something. It's fine if you don't appreciate it, but why are you putting on airs? Do you think you're still the Yongshou Palace? "
The other palace maids of Yongshou Palace heard the noise and came out. When they saw that it was the palace maids of Honored Consort Shu, who had been in the limelight recently, they all frowned. These days, Yongshou Palace tried not to go out because they didn't want to have any disputes with Xiuhe Palace. Now that they were bullied, it was another matter.
Dai Mei sneered in her heart. Did he think that the Empress was out of favor, so he wanted to take the chance to step on her?
"The Yongshou Palace is the Yongshou Palace. There is no past or present, and not just anyone can replace it. Don't think that just because the Empress is not in the palace, you can replace it." Dai Mei said, "Which family raised you? How dare you come here and behave atrociously."
"You dare humiliate me?" Xiang Huan was furious. This Dai Mei was too arrogant. She thought that the Empress was a backer. The Empress couldn't even protect herself, so how could the servants of Yongshou Palace be so arrogant? Shouldn't they receive her with fear and trepidation? Shouldn't they hide their tails and think of ways to curry favor with their Xiuhe Palace?
Dai Mei sneered. This Xiang Huan was really funny. Wasn't it just her mistress who was temporarily in charge of the inner palace? She really thought that she could surpass the Empress. "Humiliate you? You really think too highly of yourself. "
Xiang Huan originally wanted to come to regain her face today. Being humiliated so rudely by Dai Mei, she was so angry that her anger flared up. She raised her hand and wanted to slap Dai Mei's face.
"Did Miss Xiang Huan find the wrong place? This isn't a place where you can make a scene. "Xiang Huan's hand was grabbed, and a feminine voice came from behind.
"Who are you!" Xiang Huan glared at the person who grabbed her hand. Seeing that he was dressed as a eunuch, he should be from Yongshou Palace.
"I am the chief steward of Yongshou Palace. What business do you have in Yongshou Palace?" Lu He had a smile on his face, but his eyes were terrifyingly cold.
Xiang Huan didn't put anyone in Yongshou Palace in her eyes. She sneered, "So it's Lu He eunuch. Today, I'm just reminding you to go to the Department of Internal Affairs with good intentions. Don't think too highly of yourself."
Lu He said with a smile, "So that's how it is. Then thank you for the reminder."
Dai Mei said snappily, "Lu He eunuch, why bother talking nonsense with her. The Department of Internal Affairs is adding insult to injury. They didn't even say a word before reporting to Shu Fei. If they have the ability, then don't send them here."
"A stray dog can only bark." Xiang Huan looked at Dai Mei with disdain.
"You are impudent!" Dai Mei shouted angrily.
Xiang Huan finally saw Dai Mei's expression change. Just as she was about to be proud, she suddenly felt pain on her face. Following the sound of slapping, she then realized that she had been hit.
"You!" She looked in shock at Lu He who was still smiling. "You dare to hit me!"
"We are all servants. It's not a big deal to be called a loyal dog. It's our honor. It's just that your words were disrespectful to Her Majesty, so don't blame me for teaching you a lesson on behalf of Her Majesty. I want you to remember that even if Her Majesty is not in the palace, there is a hierarchy. No matter how much your mistress is favored, it's not up to you to strut around in Yongshou Palace." Lu He said slowly.
Xiang Huan covered her swollen cheeks and glared at Lu He with shame and indignation. "You hit me today. I definitely won't let you off."
"What's going on?" Fu eunuch's voice came from outside. He had just gone to pass a message to Shu Fei and happened to pass by Yongshou Palace. Seeing that something was wrong inside, he came in to take a look. Why did this servant girl look so much like someone from Xiuhe Palace?
"Fu eunuch, you came at the right time!" When Xiang Huan saw Fu eunuch, she immediately cried out in grievance. With Her Majesty's favor, Fu eunuch would definitely stand on her side. To be able to stay in the palace for so long, he definitely had good judgment. How could he support an Empress who had fallen out of favor? "I came with good intentions to remind them that they should go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to receive their rations. It's fine if they don't appreciate it, but they even insulted Her Majesty and hit me!"
Fu eunuch looked at her indifferently and turned to look at Lu He. "Lu eunuch, what happened?"
Lu He smiled. "Nothing much. She just said that they were stray dogs, so I taught them a lesson on behalf of Her Majesty."
Stray dogs? Eunuch Fu looked at Xiang Huan coldly. "Xiang Huan, are you bringing trouble to your Honored Consort Shu?"
Xiang Huan stilled. What?
