Want to win the palace fight? Better to be crazy than to be idiotic!

In the end, Su Feiran and Yu Xiao finished the entire table of food, and were so full that they had to hold on to the palace wall to return to Zichen Palace.

The first thing Su Feiran did when he returned to Zichen Palace was to ask Yuxiao to go to the catering department and tell them not to send food to the East Attic of Zichen Palace tonight.

The imperial city is so big, and the canteen is so far away. If Yuxiao leaves, she will definitely not be able to come back for half an hour. As soon as Su Feiran sent Yuxiao away, he began to worry about the stack of fine brocade that Lin Xiuqing sent.

Apart from Yuxiao, who else can go with me to the Zichen Palace to deliver gifts?

A voice came from outside the attic door at the right time. Su Feiran could tell it was from the eunuch brother:

"Liu Ronghua, this is the maid given to you by His Majesty. Her name is Xunyin. She used to work at Miaolefang and played the zither very well. Later, because of her excellent weaving and embroidery skills, she was transferred to the Weaving Bureau. She is a rare talent. His Majesty gave her to you, Ronghua, which shows how much he loves you!"

The eunuch praised the great grace of heaven and left. Only Xunyin was left outside the door, waiting alone for her master to call her in.

Su Feiran thought to himself, why did Qin Fengan send a little palace maid now instead of sending someone earlier or later?

Even though he was puzzled, Su Feiran still said, "Come in."

Following the sound, he pushed the door open and walked in, then stood in front of Su Feiran with an air of readiness, as if he was ready to be ordered around by his master.

Su Feiran looked Xunyin up and down. This girl looked two or three years younger than Yuxiao and himself. Her face still had the childishness of a teenager, but her demeanor was more mature than most office workers. It was obvious that she was a poor person who was sent to the palace by her family to work as a servant to earn the family's living expenses.

Su Feiran couldn't help but feel pity for her. How could a 16-year-old girl be forced to do hard labor? She couldn't bear to do that.

Fortunately, according to the eunuch, the work done by Xunyin in the past is playing the piano and embroidering, so it shouldn't be too tiring.

"I already have a maidservant named Yuxiao. She is older than you, so you should call her sister." Su Feiran introduced gently, "From now on, you and her will sleep in the attic side room, just in time for companionship."

"Yes. Actually, I should have reported to Ronghua a long time ago, but the Weaving Bureau had urgent work today, so they let me go at noon, and His Majesty agreed." Xunyin's voice was very smart and crisp like a thrush. "Ronghua is decorated simply and low-key, which shows that Ronghua is a simple and honest person. But I don't see Sister Yuxiao, where did she go?"

The layout is simple and low-key because I really don't have anything good to put on display, Su Feiran thought.

"I asked Yuxiao to go out and do something." Su Feiran gave half of the brocade to Xunyin. "You came at the right time. I just want to distribute the brocade to the concubines in Zichen Palace. You can come with me. When we come back, you will be able to see Yuxiao."

Xunyin took all the brocade from Su Feiran's hand without leaving any trace, and just glanced at it, with surprise in her eyes:

"These are all the finest embroidered satins that are picked from thousands of miles away, just like flawless jade that is worth a fortune. With such fine material, even if the best embroiderer in the Weaving Bureau worked overnight, she could only produce one piece a month. As expected of Liu Ronghua, she is favored by the emperor, and no one else in the imperial garden can compare to her."

so smart?

Su Feiran was suddenly startled.

She had looked at these brocades over and over again, and only felt that the texture was delicate and the craftsmanship was complicated, and it was not vulgar, and she could not see anything else. Yuxiao also helped to look at it, but she was not good at weaving and embroidery, only a little better than Su Feiran, but she was also completely clueless.

Although Su Feiran had zero vision, she felt that the things that came out of the palace couldn't be too bad. The things that Concubine Xian asked her to send out in her name were definitely better than ordinary items, but they were not of such quality that they would shock the world and make ghosts weep. Now, after hearing Xunyin's description, she had a new understanding of Concubine Xian's generosity.

Lin Xiuqing——the Holy Lady of the Back Garden, the living Buddha of our time!

In addition to the main seat of the Purple Palace, the Empress Xian Lin Xiuqing, who lived in the main hall, Liu Ronghua and Su Feiran lived in the east attic, and Xie Zhiqi, who entered the palace together, lived in the west attic. However, Xie Zhiqi was now Xie Cainu, which was higher than the lowest selected concubine, but lower than Baolin, and she also had a very low position in the back garden.

The pure talent Ma Shuya lived in the south wing. She was an old lady in the harem. Because her father had made contributions in the clean-up movement, she was sent to the back garden as a reward. However, she had been treating the emperor with respect for several years. Except for paying respects, she stayed in the bedroom to study and had no chance of promotion. That was why she was only a talent now.

Su Feiran asked Xunyin to pick out the best materials and put them on the top floor according to their status. She took Xunyin to the main hall to visit Lin Xiuqing and gave her the best materials as a reward for Lin Xiuqing's 1%.

Lin Xiuqing watched the silk go around and around and come back to her hands without saying anything. She exchanged a few words with Su Feiran and put the jade flow aside.

The second place Su Feiran visited was Ma Shuya. It was her first time in the South Wing and she was very curious about what kind of person Chun Cairen was.

"Please wait at the door, Ronghua. The scholar is still reading. I will go and inform him."

After the maid Qingtan in the south wing finished speaking, she turned around and went to report. After a while, Su Feiran and Xunyin saw the door creak open, and a chill came from the room.

Qingtan helped Ma Shuya out, and saw that Ma Shuya was wearing a plain robe, just like the one she wore when she went to pay respects today. Her robe was dragging on the ground, with wide sleeves, and it would be a bit redundant if it was decorated with luxurious ornaments and complicated patterns. This just happened to outline her elegance and wealth without a trace of vulgarity.

The most eye-catching feature of her is her pair of lively almond-shaped eyes, which are very round and just balance out the plainness of her clothes, adding a vividness to her dignified and elegant appearance, like the finishing touch to a painting.

"I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person, Liu Ronghua," Ma Shuya smiled slightly, her almond eyes slightly curved like a crescent moon, "Please come in."

Su Feiran waved her hands quickly: "We all live in the same courtyard, so there's no such thing as far or near." After saying that, she followed Ma Shuya into the house, and Xunyin followed closely.

"Qingtan, ask Xiao Luo to get my mandarin duck cushion. This mahogany chair is too hard, Liu Ronghua can't get used to it."

"Also, pour out the autumn chrysanthemums in the pot and replace them with the new spring mountain green."

"Chishao, don't just stand there. Go and clear the jasmine incense in the Boshan stove. You should light ambergris when guests come. Fragrance basket? Change the one in the basket too! By the way, sprinkle some rose water on the floor and bed. It will smell better that way."

"Serve the pine nut cakes and taro crisps in evenly sized plates and warm them before serving."

As soon as they entered the house, Ma Shuya hurriedly ordered the maids and eunuchs, which made Su Feiran, who was just looking for a place to rest, feel a little flattered. Su Feiran's butt just touched the edge of the mahogany chair, but he didn't dare to sit down.

With such a big and noisy scene, those who didn't know would think that Qin Fengan had turned over the sign of Chun Cairen.

"This pure talent looks dignified and steady, and she is not very old. I wonder if she has a motherly personality at heart..." Su Feiran thought in panic.
