惢心 was carrying a heavy package, which contained all the clothes carefully selected by Ruyi, armor, some flower seeds, and even some of her favorite snacks.

As for those precious jewelry and the silver bills that Li Yu had reminded her to take in advance, they were not taken at all under Ruyi's strong request.

Because the package on her body was very heavy, Suo Xin's steps slowed down a lot, and she heard the conversation between Gao Xiyue and Wei Yanwan clearly.

She knew this noble concubine Gao. She had entered the palace at the same time as her master. Both of them were princesses. Although they had bad tempers, they were kind-hearted.

Wei Yanwan's name was well-known among the maids in the harem. Everyone was discussing privately whether she had any background. Otherwise, how could she be favored by the Queen and take the position of Lianxin?

Because Ruyi has always regarded the Empress as an enemy who has snatched her position as the main wife, she often complains about the Empress to惢心 and A Ruo, and even asks them to help keep an eye on the developments in Changchun Palace.

Even on her birthday, she would compare the gift the emperor gave her with the gift he gave to the empress.

A Ruo agreed verbally, but actually she did not inquire at all. A Ruo was not a fool. As a concubine, she went to inquire about the affairs of the Queen's palace for no reason. If her behavior was exposed, then they, the servants, would be punished in the end.

惢心 often follows Ruyi around. Because of her gentle personality, she has a good relationship with the other palace maids and has more or less heard a few things about what goes on in the Empress's palace.

Originally, these palace maids were old ladies who served in the palace. They followed their masters to the palace, and most of them became well-known maids. Their masters were kind and would give them generous rewards and send them out of the palace when they reached a certain age.

Or keep those palace maids who have no need to leave the palace by your side and give them greater respect in the future.

The Empress had heard before that Wang Qin, who was beside His Majesty, had taken a fancy to her Lian Xin, and had even hinted that if the Empress was willing to give Lian Xin to him as a wife, she would definitely tell the Empress the first-hand news from His Majesty in the future.

This kind of thing is common in the harem.

When the Queen learned about this, she did not agree immediately. Instead, she had a good talk with Lianxin in private.

Rong Yin knew how Fu Cha Langya died in her previous life. She just lamented that Fu Cha Langya attached too much importance to the honor and disgrace of the Fu Cha family and the relationship between the emperor and his wife, which made her lose her mind and send away Lian Xin, her capable person. This gave others the opportunity to take advantage of the loophole.

She certainly wouldn't make the same mistake again.

"Lianxin, Wang Qin, who is beside His Majesty, asked me to make you his concubine. What do you think about this?" Rongyin did not directly express her thoughts, but asked Lianxin's opinion first.

As expected, Lian Xin knelt down immediately after hearing this, her whole body trembling, and her words were filled with tears, "Your Majesty, I don't want to do this. I just want to serve you well, please show me mercy."

Sure enough.

Rong Yin was not surprised by this answer. She spoke softly, "You have been serving me in the palace and have been loyal to me all these years. If you don't want to, I will not force you."

Lian Xin looked up in disbelief. She knew Wang Qin's position beside His Majesty and thought that the Queen would choose to exchange interests with Wang Qin, but now...

"But Wang Qin is, after all, a popular eunuch by His Majesty's side. I have rejected him now, so he naturally dares not complain to Changchun Palace, but he will inevitably embarrass you in private."

As soon as Rong Yin changed the subject, the expression on Lian Xin's face instantly darkened. She had no idea what the Queen meant now, and could only cry continuously, unable to utter a complete sentence.

Rong Yin sighed, and Wei Yanwan immediately helped Lianxin up with great tact, "Sister Lianxin, don't be anxious, listen to what the queen has to say first. There is a solution to this problem." She also did not forget to wipe Lianxin's tears considerately.

"I sent someone to inquire about it. Your family has arranged a marriage for you outside the palace. You also know this. Now that you are old enough to leave the palace, I will prepare a dowry for you and send you off in a grand manner. In the future, you will not be looked down upon by your husband's family, and Wang Qin will not be qualified to contact you again. Are you willing?"

Fu Cha Rongyin had thought of all the possibilities for her. Although Lianxin had not served her for a long time, she was a senior palace maid following Fu Cha Langya before.

Lian Xin never thought that she would have such a good outcome. She subconsciously kowtowed to express her gratitude, "If I leave, who will serve the queen..."

At this time, she was still worried that there would be no one to serve the Queen. Rong Yin smiled and said, "I know you are a good person. Before you leave the palace, I will let Yan Wan temporarily take your place. You should teach her well."

This can be regarded as a conclusion of this matter, and it also indirectly eliminates the possibility of "Empress Fucha" falling into the water later.

Lianxin herself is a loyal palace maid. She was forced to do that in her previous life. Now, out of gratitude for the Queen's kindness, she naturally wholeheartedly takes Wei Yanwan to familiarize herself with everything in Changchun Palace.

In just a few days, Wei Yanwan had become the head maid of Changchun Palace. She was smart and capable, and she managed Changchun Palace in perfect order. She also took time out every day to read and learn to read with the Empress. Her life was so good now.

On the day when Lianxin was leaving the palace for her wedding, the Queen Mother gave her a very generous dowry and personally escorted her to the palace. I wonder how many palace maids with the name "Xin" who came out of the palace were envious of her.

Suoxin was also among those who were envious. She had always followed her master. Although her master was kind-hearted, she had long passed the age to leave the palace, but her master had never mentioned this matter.

Even...惢心 didn't know if her feeling was right or not. A'ruo bullied her openly and secretly. Her master actually knew it in his heart, but he didn't intend to enforce the rules. Every time he would scold A'ruo a little and praise her for her gentle temperament.

Later, A Ruo found an excuse to seek refuge with other concubines in the palace, and begged the concubine to take her away from her master.

Moreover, the master seemed to know that Li Yu, who was beside His Majesty, had a crush on her, but he never mentioned it actively. Instead, he would send himself over whenever he had contact with Li Yu.

The most important thing is that the master seems to be using me to win over Li Yu to her side and help her find out the news from His Majesty.

惢心 was carrying two huge packages, staggering behind Ruyi, her eyes a little red.

Wei Yanwan slowly glanced at惢心's back, her voice was neither loud nor soft, but loud enough for惢心 to hear clearly, "I dare not speculate on the Empress Xian's thoughts, but our Empress and the Imperial Concubine are both kind-hearted and considerate of the servants. The Empress sent me to inquire about Lianxin's life after getting married outside the palace a few days ago, and sent a lot of things over."

Although Gao Xiyue had no intention of harming anyone, no one helped her either. She laughed as soon as she heard the news from the Queen, straightened her body slightly, let out a long sigh, and said with pride, "That's right, the Queen is such a good person. My daughter Mo Xin just doesn't want to leave the palace, otherwise I would have prepared a thick dowry for her and would never let her suffer this kind of hardship."

Wei Yanwan smiled and replied, "No wonder Sister Moxin always tells the servants that the Imperial Concubine is kind-hearted and is becoming more and more like the Empress."

"Are they similar?" Gao Xiyue's liking for Wei Yanwan also increased sharply. She was quick in action and sweet in words. "The Queen said that she taught you to read a few days ago. How are you doing?"

Suo Xin wanted to continue listening, but the two had already walked away. She murmured in a low voice, "The Queen actually went out of her way to teach a palace maid to read..."

Ruyi walked ahead at a brisk pace for a while, and found that惢心 had not caught up with her, "惢心."

惢心 suddenly came to her senses and immediately trotted after Ruyi towards the cold palace.
