Seeing that there was no one around, Pearl immediately stealthily took out a human-shaped doll from under her mattress. Looking at the rag doll, Pearl's eyes shone with a vicious light.
She reached out and took out an inch-long sewing needle from under the pillow. She stabbed the doll's head and chest with force. While he was stabbing, he was also murmuring malicious words fiercely.
"I'll stab you to death, you little bitch! You'll die a horrible death! I'll stab you to death! I'll stab you to death! "
In the dim little room, Pearl's crazy look was a little scary.
"Pearl, the little prince's tiger head pillow — Pearl, what are you doing?"
Agate's voice came from outside. Pearl failed to dodge, and the doll in her hand accidentally fell at the door.
"Give it back to me! Give it back to me! "
Pearl turned pale with fright, but how could Agate let her get it so easily? Turning around, she could clearly see the three words on the doll.
"How could you make such a harmful doll in the name of the princess? Pearl, do you want to die? "
Since it had been seen by Agate, Pearl was not in a hurry.
She snatched the doll from Agate's hand and hurriedly stuffed it under the quilt.
"What's the difference between dying and not dying? Anyway, I have nothing to worry about now. It's good for me to die. "
Agate was startled. She reached out and grabbed Pearl's arm.
"Pearl, you can't say that. Doing this kind of thing will implicate the whole family. Don't you have sisters and family? In a few years, we can leave the palace and go home. Why do you do such a stupid thing? Although what the princess did to you that day was a little too much, you said later that it was not harmful to your body, didn't you? "
Pearl's face suddenly showed a sad look, which softened Agate's heart. She helped her sit on the bed.
"It's gone. Everything is gone. Agate, I can't leave the palace. Even if I leave the palace, I have nowhere to go. Agate, do you know? I have nothing. "
A stream of tears rolled down from Pearl's eyes. Even Agate didn't know what to say. Ever since they entered the palace, they had been good sisters who supported each other.
The days in the palace were somewhat unbearable. If they hadn't supported each other, they wouldn't have been able to persist until now.
"Pearl, what's the matter? Tell me."
Agate and Pearl shed tears together. They were all poor people. Otherwise, they would not have been sent to the palace by their families.
"I — Agate, if you're my good sister, can you keep this secret for me?"
Pearl begged Agate with a tearful voice. Agate was very embarrassed. After thinking for a while, she said in a low voice,
"But … but you have to promise me that apart from this baby, you're not allowed to do anything else to the princess. You have to know that the Princess is different from us. If something happens, we will lose our heads, understand? "
Pearl bit her lip, and Agate begged her again and again before she reluctantly nodded.
Seeing that Pearl finally gave up some terrible ideas, Agate was a little relieved. She helped her wipe her tears and put the doll away. After comforting her for a long time, the two gradually quieted down.
Fortunately, their room was relatively remote, so it didn't attract Lin Mengya's attention in the main room.
At this moment, Lin Mengya was in the room, receiving a newcomer.
"Your servant Fanglan pays respect to Your Highness. Long live the Princess."
Lin Mengya looked at the girl in front of her with satisfaction. She was no more than 18 or 19 years old. She was not tall, with a round oval face. She was cute, but rarely mature and steady.
Standing in front of Lin Mengya, she didn't show any fear at all. Instead, she greeted people with a smile, which made people feel that she was kind.
"Get up. How old are you this year? Where did you work before? "
This person was sent here by Senior Yu in person. Of course, she was very appropriate and reliable. But Lin Mengya still had to ask about it.
"Your Highness, I used to take care of the flowers and plants in the yard. I didn't have the good fortune to serve the master in the harem. "
Her voice was sweet and gentle. The more Lin Mengya looked at her, the more satisfied she was.
"Well, you can be my companion in this yard from now on. As a master, I don't have too many things to do. As long as you can do what I tell you, you can do it properly. You are worthy of this task. This is a small gift I prepared for you. Take it. If you need anything in the future, you can tell me. "
Lin Mengya couldn't help thanking Senior Yu in her heart. She must be busy with the affairs of the Imperial Institute of Medicine these days. Baisu couldn't leave for a moment.
Although the 10th prince had a wet nurse to take care of him, he was obsessed with the Nine Chain Rings recently and refused to leave the room easily. However, there were still people in the courtyard who were managing it.
"Yes, thank you, Your Highness."
After giving a few more instructions, Lin Mengya asked Baisu to assign some tasks to Fanglan.
Since Senior Yu sent her here, some words could be said clearly. Therefore, it didn't take long for Baisu to teach Fanglan, and the two of them seemed to be much more harmonious.
"Do you understand?"
Fanglan personally made a cup of tea, which was clear and fragrant. It seemed that if Fanglan was really a palace maid who took care of flowers and plants, it would be a waste of her talents.
Fanglan and Baisu lived with Lin Mengya in the main room. Although the three of them were still a little unfamiliar with each other, Fanglan was tactful. She specially picked some words that Lin Mengya was interested in, so naturally, they were happy and harmonious.
"By the way, you said that you take care of flowers and plants in the palace. Let me ask you, if you want this yard to be free of weeds, what should you do?"
In fact, Lin Mengya just mentioned it casually. There was no herbicide in ancient times, so she couldn't think of any good way except to pull the weeds manually.
But Fanglan covered her mouth, smiled, and then said softly and slowly,
"My master is the gardener in this palace. In the past, when Chongyun Empress was alive, she was the empress of the late emperor. She liked mountain chrysanthemum the most, but this mountain chrysanthemum is actually the most common wildflower on this mountain. It was always mixed with weeds when it was transplanted here. But those weeds are very tenacious. If they are pulled out this year, they will grow back next year. Later on, my master came up with an idea. After all, weeds are different from mountain chrysanthemum, so my master consulted the imperial physician in the Imperial Hospital and developed a medicine. This medicine is mixed in the soil layer, and all the weeds will wither. But the wild chrysanthemum is still there, and it is even more luxuriant. "
Fanglan's words made Lin Mengya's eyes light up.
The medicine she made was just to make the Duotian Root wither. If she wanted the root to be eradicated, or the medicine could not be planted anymore, this was the best way.
The few of them chatted for a while more before reluctantly falling asleep.
At five o 'clock in the morning, Lin Mengya automatically got up from the bed.
Baisu rubbed her eyes and looked at her master in surprise, who was dressed neatly and standing in front of the dressing mirror.
"Master, what are you …"
Since her master's heart meridian was damaged, she slept like a kitten when the weather turned cold. Why was she so energetic today?
"I'm working, so I naturally need to sleep early and get up early. Let's go to the Imperial Hospital first. By the way, Fanglan, we'll have breakfast in the Imperial Hospital today. Take good care of the 10th prince. I've made a list of things that he can't eat. Help me keep an eye on him, okay? "
Fanglan nodded. She knew all these things. Before coming here, Eunuch Yu had reminded her many times, so she certainly knew the importance of it.
Baisu followed Lin Mengya, but couldn't help looking at her master's clothes today.
To be honest, she was used to seeing her master's exquisite and beautiful appearance. Even in men's clothes, she was still handsome.
She was wearing a plain white satin lined jacket, and there was no silk skirt on the bottom. Instead, she only wore tight-fitting cotton pants of the same color. It was said to be men's clothes, but the style was all for women.
However, wasn't this a little too strange?
Her master didn't wear any jewelry today, but simply tied her hair up high on the back of her head. She didn't put on any makeup, but she looked full of energy.
To be honest, this kind of master looked a little weird.
"Girl, why are you looking at me for no reason?"
Lin Mengya looked at the maidservant beside her, who was looking at her suspiciously. She knew that her clothes had made the maidservant suspicious.
Lin Mengya looked up and down, and smiled at Baisu.
In fact, it was nothing. She always felt that the clothes of ancient women were beautiful, but too impractical. She had hired someone to make this set. She had been keeping it with her teacher for winter. It seemed that her teacher missed her, so he asked Long Tianhao to bring it to the palace.
The prescription seemed simple, but in ancient times when there was no preparation of measuring methods, it was a matter of life and death. Fortunately, she now had the Shen Nung System to support her. Speaking of which, the Shen Nung System was like a plug-in in the game.
Last night, before she went to bed, she felt that it was fun, so she accidentally set herself in the mode of a workaholic.
This morning, she was immediately woken up by the system. Moreover, she was very awake, as if she had drunk three cans of strong coffee.
She didn't expect the system to be so considerate, so her mood improved.
"It's okay, as long as it's convenient for you. In fact, I also feel that the clothes of Jin State are too fussy, not as good as the clothes of Lieyun. If there is a chance in the future, you can go to Lieyun to have a look, Master. In Lieyun, even the imperial concubines in the palace can ride horses to hunt at any time! "
This was the first time that Baisu took the initiative to mention her homeland.
