One touch and one silence

Shuhua knew the women in the harem, and they all looked harmonious.

No one knows better than her what she is like in private.

Shuhua thought of a little sister from her former hometown who happened to be serving in Qin Shuyuan's palace.

Thinking of this, Shuhua returned to her own ear room and took the cakes that His Highness had rewarded her with in the past few days.

He couldn’t bear to eat it himself, so he packed the pastries and went to Linyue Palace.

That’s right, just by looking at the name of the palace, you can tell how deep the grudge between Concubine Liu and Shuyuan is.

When Shuhua arrived at Linyue Palace, he took out a silver hairpin and handed it to the eunuch at the door.

The eunuch weighed the silver hairpin twice with a look of disdain on his face and replied, "Wait!"

After saying that, he walked away slowly.

Shuhua knew that the other party looked down upon it, but he still accepted it.

No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. A little bit adds up to a lot. Who would complain about having a lot of money?

After a while, a little palace maid in light green clothes ran out from the door.

When the little palace maid saw that it was a painting or calligraphy, she looked around stealthily, and then carefully pulled the painting or calligraphy to a secluded place.

Smiling happily, "Sister Shuhua, how come you have time to come to see me today?"

Shuhua took out a paper bag from his sleeve with a smile.

"I remember that you like sweets the most. These are the gifts given to me by the master today. You know I don't like sweets, so I thought of you."

When the little maid heard what Shuhua said, her face lit up with joy.

He took the pastry from Shuhua's hand, opened it, picked up a piece, took a bite, and started eating happily.

He also thanked her, "Sister Shuhua, you are so kind. I haven't eaten cakes for a long time. In the palace, there is no place for people like us who clean the house."

Shuhua looked at the girl lovingly as she ate the cakes with big mouthfuls, and smiled, "It was because of these thoughts that I brought this to you. You also know what happened in the palace yesterday. The master was so angry that he couldn't eat this morning, so he gave it to us as a reward."

The expression on Shuhua's face was very natural, as if the little palace maid in front of her was her sister.

He lovingly wiped the cake crumbs from the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief.

I feel extremely ashamed.

I will compensate her well in the future.

The little palace maid was instantly attracted by Shuhua's words and secretly looked around.

Then he whispered, "Your master is also a powerful man. He has been bullied by Concubine Jieyu for so many years and finally knows how to resist."

"I heard that the queen in our palace was so happy when she heard the news yesterday that she even ate half an extra bowl of dinner, saying that it was what she deserved and that it was retribution."

Shuhua nodded in agreement and echoed, "That's right! I was wondering, how could a mother not like her own child? It turns out..."

Shuhua suddenly felt as if he had almost said something, so he covered his mouth with his hands and looked around vigilantly, as if he had said something by accident.

"I've been out for some time now, so I have to leave quickly. Next time the master gives me some cakes, I'll give them to you."

Let's go.

He had said half of this and suddenly stopped talking. The little girl was intrigued by the curiosity about calligraphy and painting.

Suddenly I felt that the cake in my hand had lost its taste.

He quickly put it into his sleeve and quickly grabbed Shuyue's arm.

She said coquettishly, "Sister, please don't tell me half the story. You've aroused my curiosity. Please tell me, please?"

Shuhua looked at her in embarrassment: "No, there are some things that you should know less about. I also overheard the Master and that person arguing by accident."

"This incident is also the main reason why our master was treated cruelly by that person."

After saying that, Shuhua sighed and was about to leave.

Naturally, the little girl didn't let her go. She pulled her and acted coquettishly, calling her "good sister".

Shuhua couldn't stand her pestering anymore, so he whispered something carefully in her ear.

The little girl was stunned by the news she just heard. She looked around vigilantly, luckily there was no one around.

"You must remember not to tell anyone about this, otherwise we will all be in trouble, and we may even pay with our lives."

After Shuhua finished speaking, she lovingly combed her hair, like an older sister next door.

"When we are 25 years old, Sister Shuhua will take you back to our hometown, and we will be together then."

The little girl nodded with tears in her eyes. In this palace, girls like them were the least valuable. If they didn't finish their work, they wouldn't be able to eat.

She often went hungry one day and then the next. She was a big eater, so she often didn't feel full and couldn't sleep in the middle of the night because of hunger. It was always Sister Shuhua who secretly brought her food.

Every time he came back, he would bring her a lot of food, all of which were saved by Sister Shuhua.

The little palace maiden promised with tears in her eyes: "Sister Shuhua, don't worry, I will never tell anyone about this even if I die."

Shuhua never imagined that what Yuanyuan said casually would come true.

Shuhua looked up at the sky and said goodbye to the little palace maid in front of him.

"Yuanyuan, I have to go back to serve my master. I'll bring you food next time."

After saying that, he left quickly!

The little palace maid returned to Linyue Palace with red eyes. The eunuch at the door took another look at her.

The eunuch guarding the gate naturally knew that the two were from the same hometown. The one who had been taking care of the little palace maid had always been so happy that every time he came to see her, he would come back with a happy look on his face.

This time, her eyes were red, and it was obvious that she had been crying, thinking about what happened in Yuelin Palace yesterday.

If you think about it, it’s possible that the little girl will have less to eat in the future.

Every time that guy came, he would give the little girl big and small bags of things.

He didn't see it this time.

Of course, this matter had nothing to do with him, so the eunuch did not ask.

Shuhua, who left, naturally wouldn't worry, Yuanyuan would really keep the secret.

In this matter, she took advantage of Yuanyuan, and she will compensate her in the future.

She knew that Yuanyuan had a habit of talking in her sleep and could not keep anything in her heart. Especially the more she was asked to keep a secret, the more likely she would blurt it out in her sleep at night.

Shuhua returned to his own ear room and looked at Shuyue who was mending his master's clothes.

When Shuyue saw Shuhua coming back, she rushed over instantly.

"Sister Shuhua, you are finally back. Tell me how you mend the master's clothes! I've looked for a long time but still don't know where to start!" Shuyue was frustrated and speechless.

I took a look at the calligraphy and painting and found that the armpit part had been worn off.

"Shuyue, go to the head of my bed and get the light white thread."

After saying that, he looked carefully at the patterns on the clothes and sighed in his heart.

Which prince would wear clothes that have been patched and sewn again and again? Perhaps it could only be her master. Shuhua really feels sorry for the Seventh Prince.

Soon it was noon, and the calligraphy and painting followed the lines of the cloth, patching up the broken lines one by one, and then scraping them with his fingers.

He didn't fold the clothes until he felt that there was no protrusion.

Shuyue came back happily with the food box. Before anyone could see her, her cheerful voice could be heard.

"Sister Shuhua, Sister Shuhua, good news!"

Shuhua shook his head helplessly at Shuyue's excited look. This girl.

"What makes you so happy?"

After saying that, he reached out to take the lunch box, but he almost dropped it to the ground because he wasn't paying attention. It was the first time that Shuhua felt the weight of the lunch box.

He opened the lid of the food box in confusion, took a look, and quickly closed it again.

She knew what Shuyue meant by the good news.
