Chapter 111 Killing the chicken to scare the monkey
On the way back to Xuanshi Hall from Hongwenguan, you will pass by the Shangshi Inner Courtyard.
When passing by, Bei Jingchu heard a burst of crying.
"stop."
The sedan stopped, and Bei Jingchu asked the palace attendant beside her: "Did you hear anyone crying?"
The palace man shook his head.
The sound was very small, a suppressed sob, and if you didn't listen carefully, it would be easy to ignore it.
Maybe it's because she is young and has good hearing that she can hear it.
Bei Jingchu got down from the sedan chair and found the direction where the crying sound came from.
It’s in the inner courtyard of Shangshi.
It was the time to prepare lunch, so there should be no one in the inner courtyard.
Bei Jingchu pushed the door open and saw a little palace maid who looked about four years old. She was sweeping the floor with a broom that was twice as long as her.
Her eyes were red with tears, but she didn't dare cry out loud and just sobbed.
As cute as a bullied little white rabbit.
Bei Jingchu suddenly felt the desire to protect him.
Beautiful sister, here you are!
When Bei Jingchu opened the door and went in, she looked towards the door as if she was frightened.
"Who are you? Are you new here?"
The palace maids were all following behind Bei Jingchu, and looking out from inside, all they could see was a little baby.
Bei Jingchu looked down at her clothes and pulled her sleeves.
Start doubting life.
Does she... really not look like a princess?
Is it really like what Aye said, like a wild monkey running down from some unknown mountain?
Bei Jingchu felt wronged.
The little palace maid was sold into the palace during this selection. She didn’t know the palace rules. No matter how young she was, it was impossible to choose a child of only one or two years old to come in.
The dress Bei Jingchu was wearing was made of lake green silk printed with floral patterns.
It is something that cannot be found on the street.
It is a tribute from the Western Regions.
Moreover, in the palace, lake green is a color that only princesses can wear.
But the young maid had just entered the palace and had never seen or heard of anything before, so she didn't know the value of it.
I thought it was a new and younger palace maid.
Bei Jingchu turned around and whispered to the palace servants: "Wait outside."
Then she ran in and came to the little maid: "What's wrong with you?"
The young maid did not answer: "Are you new here? It's time for lunch now."
"You should go quickly. If you go too late, they will be busy preparing lunch for the masters, and you will have to go hungry."
"Then why don't you go?"
As soon as she finished saying this, the little palace maid could no longer hold back.
He squatted down and cried loudly: "Wuwuwuwu, my aunt punished me by not letting me eat, wuwuwuwu."
"But I'm so hungry. Mother said that I could have a full meal after entering the palace, but why didn't she let me eat my first meal after entering the palace?"
She cried so suddenly that Bei Jingchu was completely stunned.
Alas, no.
Isn't she here to comfort people?
Can one sentence be so destructive?
She had no choice but to take out a piece of crystal dragon and phoenix cake that she had taken from her father's plate that morning.
"You can eat this."
Bei Jingchu spread out the wax paper that wrapped the pastry.
The exquisite and beautiful dessert was crushed to pieces in Bei Jingchu's arms after a whole morning of tossing and turning.
It doesn't look good.
Even a little disgusting.
The maid looked at her with a suspicious expression.
"really tasty."
"If you don't eat it, it will be gone."
The hungry little palace maid reached out, grabbed a little and put it into her mouth.
Then his eyes lit up.
"too delicious!"
“I’ve never eaten anything so delicious!”
"Ah Niang is right, the palace is good."
Bei Jingchu handed her the oil paper.
"Why don't they let you eat?"
"Today, when my aunt was speaking, I couldn't help but feel an itch in my nose and sneezed."
"I really didn't mean it, but my aunt said that my attitude was not right and it is not allowed in the palace."
"Just make me sweep the floor and not allow me to eat."
"My aunt said that since it was my first offense, I would only give her a light punishment."
Too naive kid.
No matter how strict the rules in the palace are, they are not as strict as this.
Except for important occasions such as the imperial court and ceremonies where no accidents are allowed, humanity is still respected in other situations.
This aunt is obviously killing a chicken to scare the monkeys, and this little palace maid is being used as a chicken to establish her authority.
It wouldn’t survive the opening theme song in a palace fighting drama.
But he is still a child, so it is normal that his IQ is not high.
After all, not every baby is as smart as her, hehe!
"What's your name?"
"My name is Hua Sanya."
What a down-to-earth name.
After asking the name, Bei Jingchu suddenly felt something in her stomach.
She only had time to say goodbye before she quickly escaped.
Toilet, toilet, toilet, this princess can’t hold it anymore!
The emperor sat at the table and waited for a long time before the little guy finally arrived.
"What happened today? Why did you come back so late?"
"I went to take a shit."
The emperor frowned and said, "How can a princess of the royal family speak such foul language? It is disrespectful to the civilized world."
"You should use more elegant words."
Bei Jingchu pondered for a while, then said hesitantly: "Then... my butt is jutted?"
Emperor: ...Don't say more, it's more vivid now.
You can make up words.
After Bei Jingchu left, everyone in the inner courtyard of Shangshi came back, but San Ya had not finished sweeping the yard yet.
How could a four-year-old girl clean up such a large courtyard so quickly?
Even after cleaning it up, Aunt Jiaoyin will still pick out the wrong ones.
"Aunt, the requirements you set are too difficult. I can't do it."
"If you can't even do this little thing, then when the master asks you to do something in the future, will you also say you can't do it?"
"You are a palace maid, not an ancestor!"
"If you want to be an ancestor, you'd better get killed early so that you can be reborn into a good family in your next life."
"Once you enter the palace, you are destined to be slaves."
"You will do whatever I tell you to do, and you will die if I tell you to die."
"Don't say you can't do it."
"You dare to talk back before you finish cleaning? You don't have to eat dinner. Just starve for a day."
"Remember to sweep the yard."
San Ya felt more ashamed of being scolded in front of everyone than being hungry and tired.
It's like digging a hole and burying yourself in it.
She wanted to cry but didn't dare to, and looked very helpless.
Emotions are contagious.
The other young palace maids were infected by her emotional breakdown and all showed fear in their eyes.
The aunt nodded happily, "Very good, the effect has been achieved."
Although there are other methods, this is the simplest and most obvious.
She could quickly achieve her desired goal by simply destroying a little girl's self-esteem.
