Quickly wear in the small world while eating melons

Chapter 537 I Eat Melon in the Palace Fighting Story 38

But Chuntao had been in the palace for several years after all, and with Baiyin's daily teachings, she knew that although she had broken off relations with them in her heart, she could not show it openly. They were all from the Shangshi Bureau, and they would have many more dealings in the future, so they must not fall out.

If she wants to do things smoothly in the Shangshi Bureau in the future, she needs the cooperation of all departments. She cannot accomplish anything by herself. That's why she knows that many people disobey her, but she acts as if nothing has happened.

She knew that she was now basically the public enemy of the Shangshi Bureau. If she continued to make a fuss about these things, everyone would fall out openly, and it would be bad if someone tried to trip her up at work.

Like now, if nothing is done, everyone will maintain their dignity, and those people will not dare to embarrass her openly. After all, they are all from the Shangshi Bureau, and they will not be able to bear the consequences if something happens. They will not take the risk to do such a thing, especially when she is still valued by the Shangshi.

If she reported the matter directly to Yu Shangshi, they would be in trouble.

You should know that what Yu Shangshi hates most is the infighting among the people in their Shangshi Bureau. In Yu Shangshi's opinion, they should unite together and face the outside world together, so that the Shangshi Bureau can become better.

It's just that where there are people, there are fights, and Yu Shangshi knows that, but as long as it's not excessive, she will turn a blind eye. But if it comes to her, she will not show mercy.

The two men saw Chuntao greeting them normally, so they responded normally, as if what happened a few days ago had never happened, except that there was a hint of politeness in their smiles.

Ever since this incident, Chuntao tends not to invest more emotions when interacting with people. She still jokes and chats with many people, but no one knows how much sincerity there is in her.

Maybe this is the price of growth.

In this palace, true love is a very luxurious thing.

For the sake of interests, not to mention friends, even relatives will fight to the point of bloodshed.

Especially since the imperial palace is the number one center of interest concentration in the world, there are countless shady struggles there.

For example, what happened to Chuntao and the others was nothing, after all, they didn't shed blood. And because of the pressure from Yu Shangshi, these people didn't dare to do anything, at most they could only say bad things in private and spread rumors.

Baiyin and Chuntao's life in the Shangshi Bureau is proceeding in an orderly manner, but after so many years of peace, the harem has become turbulent again, as if something is brewing.

"Sister Chuntao, what's wrong with you?" Baiyin asked.

Baiyin called out several times before Chuntao regained her composure. She replied, "I'm fine. By the way, what did you say just now?"

Bai Yin: "Nothing, I just want to ask how you've been doing lately."

Something was wrong, very wrong.

You know, when Chuntao talked to her before, she would listen very carefully and never got distracted. But now when I was talking to her, she got distracted and it took me several calls to come back to her senses.

And she has been like this often in the past few days. Baiyin recalled Chuntao's condition in the past few days and had a guess in his mind.

Could it be that Chuntao has a lover?

The more Baiyin thought about it, the more he felt that this guess was true. Doesn't Chuntao's expression look like that of a young girl in love?

The palace is basically full of eunuchs, and the only people who can be considered men are the emperor and the guards.

Baiyin knew that Chuntao would definitely not fall in love with the emperor, so the only option was the guards.

But all this was just her guess, and she couldn't ask Chuntao directly.

Baiyin has been busy watching spectacles these days, so he didn't pay any attention to Chuntao, so he didn't know what was going on with her.

But it doesn't matter. She will let the system keep an eye on her these few days, and it will soon know whether she is in love or not.

Baiyin has often relied on the system to get information in recent years, so she also knows a lot of secrets in the palace.

The reason why she paid so much attention this time was because she discovered a big melon: someone was plotting to assassinate Concubine Xi and the Third Prince, and the preliminary arrangements had already begun.

In order to keep up with the latest news, Baiyin has been following current affairs closely these days, so he has no time to pay attention to Chuntao.

The harem has only been quiet for a few years, and it looks like bloody storm is about to break out again.

However, Concubine Xi is the only one in power in the harem now, and the emperor only goes to Concubine Xi's palace, forgetting about everyone else. It's good enough that they can endure it until now.

If their power had not been almost weakened by the emperor, Baiyin estimated that they would have taken action long ago.

Choosing to take action now probably means that they have accumulated enough strength.

Baiyin knew very well that no matter whether this matter succeeded or not, a large number of people would suffer.

You have to know that this involves the matter of Concubine Xi and the Third Prince, the Emperor will definitely not let it go.

Although the emperor usually treats people peacefully and does not punish people at will, he will become a different person when it comes to matters related to Concubine Xi. He will definitely not show mercy to anyone who dares to harm Concubine Xi and the third prince.

The harem is about to become lively again.

A few days later, while Baiyin was enjoying the melon, he also took the time to pay attention to Chuntao and confirmed that she was indeed in love.

The person she liked was a guard, and Bai Yin saw the two of them interacting.

Baiyin thought about their relationship and decided to ask her before she went astray.

So, Bai Yin deliberately asked, "Sister Chuntao, I saw you with a guard that day, what did you talk about?"

Chuntao was startled and said, "We...we didn't say anything?" But her tone was obviously not so confident.

Normally, with Chuntao's current mentality, facing other people's questions, even if she felt guilty, she would not act like this. Instead, she should remain calm.

The reason why she looked so insecure now was because Baiyin was her best friend and she didn't want to lie to Baiyin.

Baiyin then asked, "Sister Chuntao, who is that guard? Are you on good terms with him?"

After hearing Baiyin's words, Chuntao guessed that she might have known something. Thinking of Baiyin's intelligence, she felt that her guess was correct.

She didn't want to lie to Baiyin, so she said, "That person, that person has feelings for me."

Bai Yin was not surprised after hearing this, and just asked: "What about you, are you interested in him?"

"I...I..." Chuntao stammered and couldn't say anything.

But she didn't need to say it, Baiyin knew it by looking at her shy face.

In Baiyin's eyes, Chuntao has always been a decisive woman. He has never seen her acting like such a shy little girl. It seems that love can really make people different.

Baiyin never thought that Chuntao would fall in love with someone else. Firstly, their environment did not allow it. They had no way to meet men, so how could she like someone?

The second reason is because of Chuntao's personality. She thought she would focus on climbing up the position of female official and would not care about matters of the heart at all.

But she forgot that Chuntao was just an inexperienced girl and her emotional affairs were never controlled by others.

When feelings come, they come. She doesn't care what kind of person you are.
