Chapter 264 I Like to Go with the Flow
The treatment of the palace maids and eunuchs in Yongshou Palace could be said to be the best in the entire imperial palace.
The master has a good temper and is very gracious. No matter whether you are in Yongshou Palace or out doing business, as long as you are diligent and honest, no one will pick on you. During festivals and holidays, you will be rewarded constantly.
The master even said that if there was an emergency at home, the salary could be advanced. If the situation was too difficult, the master would help according to the circumstances.
But even so, it can't stop people from throwing money at it.
For example, the little eunuch and the little stool who went to pick up Li Zhe today.
With a gold ingot, she bribed him to find out the news about Yan Wan.
Chunchan sneered, "People's hearts are always full of insatiable desires, so the master and Eunuch Jinzhong have repeatedly emphasized that if you want to serve in the main palace, you must go through several years of observation."
Wang Chan smiled and said, "Who says it's not true?"
When he smiled, he always looked honest because of his appearance, but now with the blood beads on his face, he seemed a little sinister and creepy.
Chunchan said, "Speak softly. Even if you find out the mastermind, don't believe his one-sided story. You should be able to use the methods that Eunuch Jinzhong taught you, right?"
Wang Chan's smile deepened: "Then the confession must be authentic! Otherwise, even if Eunuch Jinzhong doesn't kill me, I will not be able to face him!"
Chunchan smiled and said, "Go ahead and ask."
When she returned, Li Zhe had just finished talking to Lan Cui, and Lan Cui was seeing him out.
Chunchan looked closely at Lancui's expression and saw that she was no longer glaring at them as before. Instead, she looked a little guilty. She did not take the initiative to step forward, but prepared to walk around the two of them.
But unexpectedly, Li Zhe took the initiative to walk towards her: "Miss Chunchan."
Chunchan stopped and bowed, "Doctor Li."
Li Zhe turned aside to avoid her courtesy: "Miss Chunchan, Lan Cui is simple-minded. After many things are handled improperly, she is always very flustered, but she dare not say or ask. She regards Miss Chunchan as her own sister, so please give her more advice in the future."
After a pause, he said shamelessly: "Please give me more guidance in the future, sister."
Chunchan: “…”
She looked at him curiously and found that he was saying this sincerely, and he did not think that the previous incident was because of her provoking the relationship between him and Lan Cui. Now his etiquette and tone also put him in the position of brother-in-law.
She had always been optimistic about Li Zhe, and seeing his sincere attitude, her smile also became more sincere: "Since you said so, if I really give you advice without knowing the seriousness of the matter in the future, please don't be offended. Even if you must be offended, don't blame Lan Cui."
Li Zhe blushed: "...I was reckless before, please be patient and watch how I act in the future, Sister Chunchan."
He didn't put himself in the right position. When he talked to Jinzhong before, he clearly remembered that Jinzhong wanted to be his father-in-law. Later, when he got Lan Cui's good look, he lost his sense of propriety and offended Ling Zhuer, his mother-in-law. He deserved to be disliked by Lan Cui.
He couldn't help but look at Lan Cui again.
Lan Cui had a beautiful smile on her face at the moment, and her smile was full of relaxation, and she looked really happy.
He felt even more guilty.
Of course, it’s really sour.
But compared to losing completely, being able to get it while feeling sad is really a very good result.
He also smiled and said, "Then I'll take my leave."
After a pause, she couldn't help but tell Lan Cui: "You have to follow the recipe I gave you. You have been too thin recently. I will pay you my salary in two days, and I will give it to you then. If it's not enough, I will report to the queen and send it to you."
Lan Cui blushed with shame: "Go away!"
Li Zhe looked at her persistently: "Are you willing to listen to the doctor's advice?"
Lan Cui nodded randomly: "Listen, listen, are you going or not?!"
She nodded and glared at him, and Li Zhe got what he wanted. He immediately smiled and left obediently.
Lan Cui watched him leave, and looked at Chun Chan anxiously: "Am I... am I being too inconsistent?"
Chunchan held her hand with a smile: "Our master is also optimistic about Doctor Li. Even a powerful person like the master thinks he is a good person. It is normal for you to be persuaded by him again."
She gently squeezed Lan Cui's hand and said, "Besides, you have already made your choice. He knows your choice but still wants to marry you, which means he has already figured out how to get along with Yongshou Palace in the future.
Lan Cui, the way out that the master told us was never just talk. She worked so hard to climb up so that those around her could have the capital to try and make mistakes. Li Zhe looks good and treats you well. As long as you think it's worth a try, you should give it a try. Even if you make a mistake, it doesn't matter."
Lan Cui felt warm in her heart: "Well, I understand."
She shook Chunchan's hand vigorously, revealing a genuinely happy smile: "I told the master myself that I want to try it! He is very good, I want to try it!"
Chunchan squeezed her hand encouragingly: "That's how it should be. The more we do this, the happier the master will be. She will know that we trust her and value her the most!"
Lan Cui nodded repeatedly due to her encouragement, and had a lot of things to say to Yan Wan.
It just so happened that Yan Wan was getting bored of waiting, and seeing her desire to talk, her eyes lit up instantly, and she gently coaxed and deceived her into saying everything in her heart.
When Lan Cui happily left, Chun Chan felt embarrassed. Was her original intention to let Lan Cui come to confess herself to her master? Was it true? She was a little unclear.
Yan Wan smiled at Chun Chan and said, "Lan Cui, this girl, her heart was stolen by Li Zhe."
She said softly, "He'd better be nice to Lan Cui. Otherwise, I think it would be great if the Imperial Hospital had a eunuch as the imperial physician."
Chunchan: “…”
She couldn't help laughing out loud: "My Lord is right!"
After laughing, she lowered her voice and talked about the small stool.
Yan Wan was not surprised: "The higher you climb, the more people are willing to pay a greater price to pull me down. Looking at the entire harem, I am probably the easiest to pull down. I have no maternal family, no connections, only the emperor's favor."
Chunchan looked proud: "Master, you have nothing, but you are in a high position. Others can be mad at you and can only watch you rise higher and higher!"
She said softly, "Besides, how can the master not have connections? Those ladies who like the master are the master's most powerful and most envied connections!"
Yan Wan couldn't help laughing: "You are the best at coaxing me."
She scolded him but smiled with her eyebrows curved. She didn't feel anything about the betrayal of the little stool. "Tell Wang Chan to interrogate him carefully. Don't rush to deal with him after the interrogation. It would be best if we can let this little stool continue to be that person's spy."
She chuckled, "What I like most is to go with the flow."
