First-rank palace maid Su Jixiang

On Zhao Xiuwan's snow-white and slender wrist hung a double-twisted gold bracelet with filigree pearls. The workmanship was good and it was quite exquisite, a fine product.

"You know, I've seen all kinds of good things. If it were in the past, I would not have taken such things to heart." Zhao Xiuwan fiddled with the bracelet on her hand and smiled, "It's so thin and uses little gold, but it's quite delicate. So I accepted it with reluctance." No wonder Zhao Xiuwan wanted to show off her gold bracelet specifically, this bracelet was the most valuable and the most impressive of all the gifts received by the palace maids.

Even among the jewels displayed in the palace, it is not inferior.

"You've said so much, what do you want to express?" Su Jixiang was a little speechless.

Does the quality of the gold bracelet have anything to do with her?

"I mean, is your arranged marriage true?" Zhao Xiuwan smiled maliciously, "Don't be kidding! Why didn't General Wei give you anything? It seems that even if the arranged marriage is true, General Wei may not take a little palace maid like you seriously."

"You are so boring!" Su Jixiang was not moved at all.

She never expected Wei Ling to take her to heart.

In fact, she and Wei Ling had known each other for a long time. At that time, Wei Ling was still the prince of Duke Dingguo. In fact, she took advantage of Wei Ling both times they met.

She and Wei Ling met twice in Dongdu.

The first time was in the backyard of the imperial palace. At that time, Su Jixiang took advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet held by Emperor Jing to go to the palace to take back some rice, flour and other ingredients.

Xiao Shunzi, a young eunuch in the inner palace, had a very good relationship with Su Jixiang, and often exchanged raw materials for the cakes made by Su Jixiang. According to Xiao Shunzi, the cakes made by Su Jixiang were even more delicious than those made by the imperial kitchen. He worked in the inner palace, and his master was Li Desheng, the eunuch in charge of the inner palace, who managed the entire warehouse, so it was no big deal to take some ingredients.

Xiao Shunzi liked the food made by Su Jixiang, and so did his master, so they became familiar with each other. So even though Su Jixiang was in the cold palace, he lived a very comfortable life, with almost everything he wanted.

When Li Desheng had nothing to do, he would secretly take Xiao Shunzi to the cold palace to eat hot pot made by Su Jixiang.

After Su Jixiang got the rice flour, he saw a huge osmanthus tree in the courtyard. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the whole city was filled with the fragrance of osmanthus. This tree was a rare red osmanthus tree. Su Jixiang wanted to collect some osmanthus flowers to make osmanthus water tower cake first, and then make osmanthus jam with the remaining osmanthus flowers.

So she climbed up the big tree and picked the best flowering branches.

It was on that big tree that she first saw Wei Ling.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Wei Ling was tricked into a side hall and drugged. The plan was to frame him for having an affair with a palace maid in order to suppress the Duke Dingguo's Mansion, but Wei Ling escaped.

When Wei Ling realized that he had been drugged, he knew something was wrong. He ran out of the side hall, but he was unfamiliar with the roads in the palace. He was drowsy all the way and had to hide and sneak around, and he ended up in the backyard of the inner palace by accident.

The drug in his body was taking effect, and after running for a distance, his blood circulation accelerated, and he felt hot and unbearable. Seeing that there was no one in the inner court, he wanted to lean against a tree to rest. Because of the effect of the drug, he involuntarily opened his clothes.

His skin was as white as snow, and his face was like a jade sculpture. The corners of his eyes were slightly red with desire. His muscles were bulging due to tension, and his lines were beautiful and smooth. He leaned his head against the tree trunk and gasped, hoping to cool down the heat in his body by inhaling a lot of air. His hand touched his exposed neck, and then slowly moved down...

Su Jixiang was stunned at that time.

It is true that she has experienced two lifetimes, but she has never seen such a scene. Only one word comes to her mind, and that is vivid and colorful... Can she see this for free?

She involuntarily exerted force on her hands, and snapped off a branch...

Wei Ling noticed it. He looked up and saw a palace maid in pink sitting on a branch of a big tree. Her body was surrounded by dense osmanthus flowers. Her black eyes were like black jade and her lips were slightly open. Her eyebrows were extremely beautiful, like a fairy among flowers. In her arms were a few freshly picked osmanthus branches.

Damn, I've been discovered... Su Jixiang felt guilty. Before she could react, Wei Ling had already jumped onto the branch where she was...

Suddenly, she was hugged tightly by someone, his face buried in her hair, his whole body was terribly hot, his hot breath sprayed on her neck, Su Jixiang felt that her waist was about to be broken by him...

His consciousness seemed to be blurred, and he had no idea what he was doing. Everything seemed to be based on his instinct. He whimpered like a little animal in his throat. The effect of the drug was about to make him explode.

Seeing that he was about to tear his belt, Su Jixiang slashed at the back of his neck in a moment of desperation.

In theory, she had practiced this before. After all, she had been a soldier in her previous life and participated in peacekeeping missions. She was considered the best among female soldiers in hand-to-hand combat. However, it took her three consecutive chops with the knife to knock the man in front of her unconscious.

Su Jixiang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the grip he had on his waist loosen and he fell limply on top of him.

Originally, Su Jixiang wanted to kick him under a tree and let him die, but when he saw the badge of Duke Dingguo's Mansion hanging around his waist, he guessed his identity. After all, he often heard the maids in the palace mention that the prince of Duke Dingguo's Mansion was unparalleled in appearance and was the most handsome young man in Dongdu.

The young man in front of me was like a white lotus.

Ugh, Black Lotus!

With the idea of saving a life, which might be useful to her in the future when she leaves the palace, Su Jixiang took great pains to get him down from the tree, and then carried him back to the cold palace. Wei Ling was lucky to meet her, if he had met someone else, he probably wouldn't even have the strength to carry him.

She is the bully in the cold palace, and no one dares to enter her territory, so she temporarily hides a grown man in her place and no one will know.

Su Jixiang also knew that he was using traditional Chinese medicine, so he rummaged through the boxes and found a bottle.

Inside the bottle was a pill left by a deceased imperial concubine. According to the concubine, this pill could dissolve all kinds of Hehuan powder, no matter what kind of effect it had. One pill would calm a person down to the point of being unable to calm down! However, the old concubine was old and a little crazy. She usually spoke incoherently, and it was unknown whether it was true or not. But now Su Jixiang had no other good solution, so he could only try his luck.

I just hope this pill isn't poison...
