The maidservant is too charming. I want to help her become the queen.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs announced: "The daughter of a road official is granted the right to live in Yinglan Pavilion."

In fact, the Empress had already chosen her residence, and coming to the Imperial Household Department was just a formality to avoid her resentment towards the Empress in the future.

When Lu Qingqing arrived at her residence, she saw only a little palace maid and a little eunuch standing in front of the door waiting for her.

Yinglan Pavilion was almost the most remote palace in the entire palace. Walking from Fengyi Palace to the Imperial Household Department and then to Yinglan Pavilion made her exhausted.

If there hadn't been two palace maids standing at the door, she would have almost suspected that she had walked out of the palace.

The red paint on the plaque at the palace gate was mottled. If a strong wind blew at this time, the paint would probably flutter to the ground, and the main hall would also be in a dilapidated state.

Lu Qingqing's excitement had just been ignited but had already cooled down a bit.

The configuration for women who are given official titles in novels is not like this. Why is there no funding when it comes to me?

This is not how she behaves as a concubine; it's like she's been thrown into a recycling station for used concubines!

The young eunuch began to introduce:

"My lord, the main hall of Yinglan Pavilion has been uninhabited for a long time. There are only two side halls on the east and west sides."

"Currently, there is a woman from the Xu official living in the East Side Hall, and the West Side Hall is your residence."

Now, the excitement has completely cooled down.

The palace I had walked through for so long was a bit shabby, but I actually had to share it with someone else...

How is this different from sharing a rental house when she was working part-time?

She was silent for a long time before she recovered from the shock and had to accept this reality.

"Got it. What are your names?"

"My lord, I am Liao Ting."

"My servant Hengluo."

"Forehead……"

The names of these two palace maids are so literary, perhaps their previous masters must have been well versed in poetry and literature.

"Do you...know what your name means?"

"This slave doesn't know."

"I don't know."

"very good!"

"Now that you have a new master, it is inappropriate to use your old names. I will give you new names. You, Erxi. You, Sanpang."

"Thank you for the name, my lord!"

"Thank you for the name, my lord!"

At this point, One Master, Two Xi, and Three Fatty settled in the west hall of Yinglan Pavilion.

It was noon in a blink of an eye.

Lu Qingqing had been busy all morning and felt a little hungry.

When she was a servant in the flower room, due to her low status, she had to wait until everyone else had finished their meal before she could eat some leftovers.

Now that I'm a lady after all, I must taste this authentic imperial meal.

"Erxi, I'm hungry. Has the imperial kitchen delivered lunch?"

"My young master..." Erxi answered hesitantly.

"what happened?"

"My lady, you may not know that although it is lunch time, the Imperial Kitchen has limited staff, and the meals are delivered to the ladies and ladies in the palace in order."

"So... I'm afraid we'll have to wait a little longer for the meals in our palace."

Although there was a hierarchy in ancient times, it was not pleasant to wait with an empty stomach. Official women did not have the qualifications to open their own small kitchens in the palace, so all their meals were from the imperial kitchen.

Lu Qingqing was hungry and at a loss, and then Sanpang took the initiative to go outside the hall to find something to eat.

She looked confused.

"This is in the palace, not in the market. Where can we find food?"

"My lord, the main hall of Yinglan Pavilion has been uninhabited for a long time. There are some weeds and trees behind the main hall, and there are many wild melons and fruits growing there. I usually pick some to satisfy my hunger. If my lord doesn't mind, I will go pick some for you."

Having something to eat is always better than going hungry, so Lu Qingqing immediately ordered Sanpang to go find it.

Not long after, Sanpang came back with a plate of fruits and vegetables, tomatoes, cucumbers, peaches, and yellow apricots, full and bright.

"Well done, Sanpang!"

The master and his servants ate and chatted.

She used this opportunity to find out the details of Erxi and Sanpang, who were both smart and honest palace servants.

After traveling from modern times to ancient times for more than a month, Lu Qingqing felt at ease for the first time.

"These people in the palace all flatter the powerful and bully the weak. I am of low rank, and you will suffer if you follow me."

"My lady, you are too kind. I have served many ladies and ladies. My lady, you are the kindest. How could I suffer?"

Sanpang's words made her feel much more relieved.

According to the customs of the ancients, Lu Qingqing didn't need to say these things to the servants in the palace, but as a person who traveled through time from modern society, she really didn't want to put on an air of superiority.

"That's what I think too," Erxi echoed, "Besides, with our young mistress's stunning beauty, she will definitely be favored by the emperor in the future. Sooner or later, she will be promoted to a noble concubine and rise to prominence!"

Lu Qingqing was amused by Erxi's bold words.

She was just an ordinary-looking worker with an ordinary face, the kind that would take a long time to find if lost in a crowd.

Erxi kept praising her for her beauty, but don’t be too outrageous!

"Erxi, don't pin your hopes on me. The three of us should work together to study the technology of growing melons and fruits. Having enough to eat in the future is more important than anything else."

"My Lord, you are too modest."

As Erxi spoke, he led his mistress to the dressing table in the bedroom and took out a bronze mirror.

"My lady, please forgive me for speaking frankly. You are naturally beautiful. If you pay more attention to your clothes and etiquette, you will definitely be a great beauty!"

Before Lu Qingqing could finish listening to what Erxi said, she was shocked by her own appearance in the mirror.

Is this still me!?

The person in the mirror has long black hair, a graceful figure, slightly furrowed brows, a pair of affectionate peach blossom eyes, and a delicate, porcelain-white neck extending downward at the collar.

Although she was wearing loose and rough clothes, it could not hide her plump and round figure underneath, showing her elegant and charming posture.

It just felt a bit awkward to chew half a piece of tomato in my mouth.

She quickly wiped away the tomato juice flowing from the corner of her mouth, which just moistened her red lips and made them plump and soft.

This is definitely winning the genetic lottery!

After traveling through time, Lu Qingqing sensed the changes in her body shape, but she was still unaware of the changes in her appearance.

The maids in the flower room were not qualified to use bronze mirrors.

After being chosen to be a bed-warming maid, she had to obey the instructions of the housekeeper nanny every day. Before serving, she only took a bath and never put on makeup in front of the mirror.

Not to mention that she was temporarily living in the Queen's palace, who would dare to praise her beauty openly?

So, this was her first time looking in the mirror!

Li Xuansheng called her beauty over and over again at night, and he was not lying to her!

Lu Qingqing looked at the unfamiliar but beautiful self in the mirror and suddenly felt that time travel was not a bad thing.

If she could return to the modern age with this body, there would be no place for those popular young actresses in the entertainment industry. Lu Qingqing would still be the boss of the world!

Looking at myself in the mirror, I feel so intoxicated!

She was intoxicated by her own fresh beauty and couldn't help herself. Sanpang came hurriedly to report, "My lady, my lady, the emperor has arrived!"

Lu Qingqing was startled by the notification, and the half tomato in her hand fell to the ground.

"Ah? What is he doing here at this hour?!"
