Quick Wear: Host, are you playing here?

Hua Xia walked weakly into Jing'an Palace.

Jing'an Palace is called a palace, but in fact it is just a dilapidated cold palace. Even the door is covered with dust and cobwebs. The eunuch walked forward and pushed it open, raising a pile of dust.

The old lady stepped forward, made a gesture, and said in a cold voice: "Please!"

Hua Xia, supported by her maid, entered Jing'an Palace. Then, the door was closed from the outside and the sound of a key being locked was heard.

Hua Xia: “…”

The little maid's eyes were slightly red. She lifted Hua Xia's hand and cried, "My lady, how could they do this to you!"

"Your Majesty wants to eat Jiangnan's Mandarin Duck Jade Soup. Xiao Tao finally asked the kitchen to make a bowl, but they wouldn't even let you finish it before leaving."

Hua Xia didn't really want to eat that soup, but this saved her the trouble of asking the little maid's name: "Xiao Taozi, we will live here from now on, don't worry, follow me and you will have delicious food and spicy drinks."

Xiao Tao was stunned for a moment, tears blurred her eyes. She couldn't see the queen in front of her clearly, but instead had some tinnitus in her ears: "Queen?"

250: [Host, you have changed too quickly. This little girl has been with the original owner since she was young. She was the maid of the Xin family who accompanied her all the way.]

Hua Xia blinked her eyes and said, "It's okay. Just follow me, no, I'll do it."

Xiaotao followed Hua Xia at a loss. Hua Xia walked in front, casually kicking away the roadblocks under her feet and kicking a wooden board out of the wall with one foot.

Xiao Tao: “…”

Hua Xia walked into the main hall of the cold palace. It was still filled with dust and cobwebs. Except for the inner bedroom which was a little cleaner, the place almost looked like a ruin.

She frowned slightly, turned around and asked Xiao Tao who almost bumped into her: "Will someone open the door and come in to deliver food later?"

Xiao Tao nodded blankly, and Hua Xia asked thoughtfully: "How many people?"

Xiao Tao: "Two fathers-in-law."

Hua Xia shook her neck and swung her hands: "Okay."

In the evening, when it was getting dark, the sound of the door opening was heard in Jing'an Hall, and soon two figures walked in. From afar, the hall was pitch black, without even a candle lit, as if no one was there.

The two looked at each other, swallowed silently, and walked in with the food boxes.

As soon as the two of them stepped into the threshold of the hall and took two steps, the door behind them was slammed shut.

"what!"

Hua Xia looked at the two little eunuchs huddled together in fear and burst out laughing, "Cowards."

The two eunuchs heard the voices and looked over immediately. They could vaguely see the people in the dim light. After confirming that Hua Xia and Xiao Tao, who was standing beside them with her lips pursed, were the people, they regained their composure.

He said angrily, "What are you doing? Do you still want to eat?"

Xiao Tao looked annoyed, but Hua Xia smiled and asked, "I do."

One of the young eunuchs immediately threw the food box to the ground and sneered, "It's gone."

The food box fell over, revealing the watery soup inside, making the meal unappetizing.

Xiao Tao took a quick glance and immediately asked, "Is this all you give to the Empress?"

The young eunuch stepped forward, full of vigor and arrogance, and said, "There is no queen here. Forget it if you don't want to eat it. No one will send it to you in the future."

"you!"

Hua Xia stopped Xiao Tao and smiled at her gently: "Xiao Tao, please go out for a while and let me handle this, okay?"

Xiao Tao: "But..."

Hua Xia continued to smile: "Be obedient, this is an order, remember to close the door."

Xiao Tao looked at Hua Xia's gentle and smiling face and inexplicably felt a strong sense of security. She bit her lip and nodded, turned around and went out, slowly closed the door and waited at the door.

Inside, the young eunuch looked at Hua Xia who was walking slowly towards her, and subconsciously took a step back: "You, what do you want to do?"

Xiao Tao leaned against the door, trying to listen to the noise inside at any time. If anything went wrong, she would rush in.

Two seconds later, scream after scream came from the room, piercing the night sky.

The little maid tightened her grip, but still didn't go in.

Hua Xia knocked the man to the ground in no time, without using much force. After all, the medical conditions here were terrible and there were class distinctions. She was worried that the little eunuch would die if she beat him too hard and he wasn't treated properly.

Another eunuch had already knelt on the ground, trembling: "Mother, mother, I, I..."

Hua Xia: "I'm not your mother. I'm still a virgin! Don't yell at me!"

The kneeling eunuch glanced at his colleague lying on the ground and lowered his head even lower: "Madam, Madam, I, I will go and change it right away, change it."

The young eunuch stood up and walked out. Hua Xia kicked the wall with her foot: "What's your name?"

"My name is Xiao Quanzi." After saying that, the young eunuch pointed to the ground and said, "His name is Xiao Shazi."

Hua Xia was amused and glanced at the eunuch pretending to be dead on the ground: "He's called Little Idiot? That's so funny, no wonder."

Xiao Quanzi: "......" It's sand... Never mind...

Hua Xia kicked the person on the ground and said, "Get up, little idiot. Go with Xiao Quanzi and change the food for us. Then come and clean the hall for me."

Xiao Shazi, who was pretending to be dead, immediately got up from the ground and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, Madam, we will go right away."

After the two opened the door and left, Xiao Tao came in and looked at Hua Xia worriedly. When she saw that she was not injured, she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "My queen, what if they don't come back?"

Hua Xia: "No, I have already warned them."

The two young eunuchs went out of the door and discussed going to file a complaint, but they were of low status and had no power. Not only would no one believe them if they went, but they would also bring humiliation upon themselves. They were also afraid of Hua Xia's revenge, so they obediently went to the kitchen to change the food and brought it back.

Hua Xia and Xiao Tao had dinner at the stone table in the yard. Two young eunuchs were cleaning hard, grunting and peeking in from time to time.

Hua Xia pretended not to notice and casually used her chopsticks to pick at the fresh but still bland food, then sighed softly.

It is true that it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality, but it is easy to go from frugality

In the middle of the night, the two eunuchs finally finished cleaning. They walked to a place three meters away from Hua Xia and stopped. They looked at Hua Xia respectfully and asked loudly, "Your Majesty, do you have any other instructions? If not, we will leave now."

Hua Xia: “…” Staying so far away from her, are they afraid that I will eat them alive?

"You two, come here."

The two young eunuchs stood side by side, in perfect tacit understanding, and took a small step forward.

Hua Xia: “…”

"come over!"

The two of them immediately came crawling over, with their heads lowered and trembling a little.

Hua Xia: "Who among you is in charge of the food, clothing and daily expenses of the cold palace?"

Xiao Quanzi immediately said, "Eunuch Lu!"

"Then is there a steward?" Seeing the two people's confusion, Hua Xia added, "The kind of person who manages the food, clothing and expenses of the entire palace, is there one?"

Xiao Shazi said first: "Yes, there is Liu Cai, the eunuch in the inner palace, who is the chief steward of the inner palace."

Hua Xia let out a long "oh" and looked thoughtful.

250: [...Host, what do you want to do? ]

Hua Xia raised her hand and shook her wrist, and the two little eunuchs dodged reflexively.

"...I won't hit you!"

250: [Host, the previous host had a hard time getting out of the cold palace and rarely met the villain, so the mission was difficult to complete.]

[Host? Why are you smiling so eerily?] 250 got goosebumps all over his body.

Hua Xia: "Let's improve our living environment first and then talk about the mission."

250 Question: [How to improve? ]

Hua Xia smiled: "In a palace with complicated interpersonal relationships and a large number of people, of course you have to 'build connections'. People with connections can always survive more easily."

250: ...Does this opening require punching?
