Zhen Huan is still in love, and her sister's goal is to become the queen mother

After rescuing Xia Dongchun, the girl became quite clingy.

The elder sister calls Huimin hostile and is quite dependent on her.

Huimin had no choice but to tell Xia Dongchun not to get too close to her in public. Looking at her puzzled face, Huimin analyzed the pros and cons for her.

"A big tree attracts the wind. A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind."

"We have just entered the palace, so we don't want people to think that we are in a clique. At least we can't let people think that we are too close. On the surface, you should still keep some of your previous temper towards me and let down their guard."

Seeing Xia Dongchun's solemn promise, Huimin still warned her with concern.

"In the deep palace, there are tricks that are hard to guard against. You must be careful and cautious with the ladies."

Huimin was just about to let her go first to prevent the Queen's spies from leaving any evidence, but she saw Xia Dongchun looking at her with sparkling eyes.

"My sister is the only one willing to teach me."

Huimin sighed and let her act out a scene where she parted ways with him unhappily.

Xia Dongchun pulled Huimin's sleeve open and raised his chin high.

"Xian Changzai is really meddling in other people's business. What does my rules have to do with you?"

Xia Dongchun held his head high like a proud little rooster, and roared at such a loud voice that Ruyi and the others in the distance hurried over.

Before anyone arrived, Xia Dongchun winked at Huimin.

Huimin smiled in her heart, this Xia Dongchun is quite cute.

Ruyi, who arrived first, suddenly stood in front of Huimin and glared at Xia Dongchun with wide eyes.

"I'm talking to your master, are you, a slave, being disrespectful to me?"

Xia Dongchun squinted her eyes and fiercely threw the handkerchief in her hand. The soft handkerchief made a startled sound when she threw it away.

"Humph."

After Xia Dongchun performed these lines, she immediately twisted her waist and left in a hurry with a group of people.

Ruyi was very angry about her attitude.

"Who is this Xia Changzai? Show me your face, young lady."

Seeing Ruyi standing up for her, Huimin gently tapped her forehead.

"Okay, I know you feel bad for your young mistress, my good Ruyi, let's ignore her."

Looking at the expressions of the servants around him, he knew that the play was half done. From then on, he and Xia Dongchun could just perform it in their daily lives, and they didn't need to believe it completely.

As long as the emperor and the empress dowager don't appear to be in the same party, it will be fine.

After comforting Ruyi with a few words, Huimin returned to the palace.

He just rested for a while in his own palace, reading travel notes and drinking tea to pass the time.

Huimin suddenly remembered something.

"Call Qingping over and keep quiet."

"Master?"

Although Ruyi was confused, she immediately went to find Qingping.

"come here."

Seeing that only her confidant was left in the room, Huimin asked Shunxin to guard the door, and then said to Qingping:

"Go to Sizhiku and look for Xiao Yunzi's brother from Suiyuxuan and help him get well. Don't let anyone notice you. You can contact Xiao Yunzi in private."

Qingping saw that the young lady was finally willing to use her after all these days. Although she looked calm and composed, she couldn't help but feel excited in her heart.

"Father arranged for Xiao Chengzi from Sizhiku. You can get in touch with him in the future. Keep a close eye on Xiao Yunzi, but don't let anyone notice anything, especially since Wan Chang is there. Be careful."

"Okay, get the five taels of silver from Shunxin and go down."

The promised annual allowance was only 30 taels of silver, usually 50 taels. Spending 5 taels for this little brother Yunzi is not a small amount, which shows his sincerity.

Helping Xiao Yunzi before Zhen Huan did and gaining her loyalty can not only weaken the strength of Zhen Huan's team, but also allow her to have someone of her own with her. It is a cost-effective deal.

After Qingping left, Huimin called Ruyi to ask about the maids and eunuchs. She had been observing them for a week since she entered the palace, and it was time to make some arrangements.

"Qingtao and Qingping are absolutely loyal to the master's arrangement. Qingyan is honest and dutiful. Xiaoruizi is active and smart. Xiaominzi is a little dull but hardworking."

"But Qingrou has some contact with the Queen's people. It's not direct contact. The Queen's people and the people in the Imperial Garden have gone through several detours. If it weren't for the people arranged by the Master, they wouldn't be able to dig these out. Does Qingrou want to..."

Huimin also knew what Ruyi meant, but this spy was also useful and would be a good weapon against the queen in the future.

"Don't move yet. Let Ama check the background of these people so that we can have a guarantee in the future."

Qingping and Qingtao's family members are all on their own farm, so they can be trusted, but it's hard to say about the rest of them.

"Time will tell, so we should keep an eye on those few first."

After making her next plans, Huimin picked up the travel book again. The book talked about the local customs and habits of various places and was not rigid. It was indeed interesting to read and she became fascinated by it unconsciously.

My eyes were a little sore. Huimin put down the travel notes in her hand and pressed her sore temples.

Before I even picked up the tea, I saw Xiao Ruizi coming in hurriedly to report.

"What happened? I'm in a hurry to see you, young master."

Shunxin stopped Xiao Ruizi. Huimin was only accompanied by the two maids she brought into the palace as a dowry and could serve her personally. The other palace maids and eunuchs were not allowed to enter the inner room without permission.

"I have something important to report to the young master." Xiao Ruizi whispered a few words in Shunxin's ear. Shunxin was shocked and nodded to motion him to go in.

"Meet the young master"

Huimin sighed in her heart. These days were so busy. Since entering the palace, there had not been a single worry-free day.

"Young Master." When Xiao Ruizi saw Huimin waving at him, he stepped forward and whispered to Huimin:

"Wan Changzai was frightened and suddenly panicked. I heard that the green cards have been taken away."

With palpitations and fear, Zhen Huan began to avoid favor. She would not be well for a while, but this was her chance.

"Okay, I got it. Tell everyone in the palace to treat Wan Changzai the same as before and not to do anything to take advantage of someone's misfortune."

After giving Xiao Ruizi a reward and sending him off, Huimin gave Shunxin some instructions.

"Prepare some things and go see Concubine Wan on my behalf. Tell my sister that I am worried about you and that you should take good care of yourself."

Because Concubine Wan was ill, she had not been in the emperor's bedchamber. It was nothing at first, but after a long time, she suffered because of the palace's habit of flattering the powerful and bullying the weak.

It is better to provide timely assistance than to add icing on the cake. This is also a good opportunity for me to increase her trust. Why not do something more lasting that can be exchanged for gold, silver and favors?

After all, the charm of this Chunyuan substitute is very great.

"My lord, you are really worried about my lord Wan."

Ruyi Huimin's advice was a little confusing, after all, she and Miss Wan were not very close friends.

Huimin smiled and called Ruyi forward.

"Who in this palace is not a sister?"

Hearing Huimin's deliberately emphasized sisters and the faint smile on the lips of her own mistress.

Ruyi also understood, bowed, and said with a smile:

"Yes, my lord."
