The Rebirth of Li Fei: The Strongest Palace Fighting System

In order to avoid traveling with Xia Dongchun, I went to the Imperial Household Department and looked for Huang Guiquan again.

"Master An, be safe and sound. I just redeemed my monthly pass. Why are you here in person?"

"Eunuch Huang, I came here today to ask for a favor."

Huang Guiquan narrowed his shrewd eyes and curled up the corners of his mouth into an unctuous smile:

"My lord, please tell me what you want. As long as it is within our reach, we will do our best to fulfill it."

"Since entering the palace, I have received some rewards. I thought that the eunuch might have some connections outside the palace and could exchange them for silver. This would also help me out of my immediate need. Of course, the eunuch's contribution is also indispensable."

"My dear, you are so considerate. Leave this matter to us, and don't worry. As for the profit, you can take 70% and we will take 30%. What do you think?"

Huang Guiquan is a very greedy person. When I see how much he asks for, I can't help but feel dissatisfied.

However, at this moment, he is the only one who can help me solve my problems, so I have to rely on him for the time being.

After all, I only get one tenth of the oleander recycling rate.

"You are indeed a wise man, this is very good. However, you must think carefully. If I am fortunate enough to be promoted in the future, the emperor's rewards will be a piece of cake. By then, I will have many good things in my hands, and our cooperation will be more than just these jewelry today. You will definitely receive endless benefits in the future."

When Huang Guiquan heard this, a glint of greed flashed in his eyes, and he nodded quickly:

"My lady, you are right. I have long considered you one of my own family. If there is ever an opportunity to receive your favor, I will be the first to tell you. We can help and look after each other. This is a win-win situation."

I nodded with satisfaction, stood up and left, leaving behind a sentence:

"My father-in-law is indeed sensible. Our cooperation will surely last long."

I returned to the Yanxi Palace and first took out the clear water glass earrings, magnolia jade pendant, and star-studded bead necklace that Zhen Huan had given me.

Then she took out the brocade flowing necklace, morning dew glimmering ring, blooming flower hairpin, moonlight like water bracelet, butterfly dancing among flowers pendant, amber flowing bracelet, amethyst dream butterfly necklace, blue phoenix flying cloud step hairpin, auspicious snow good harvest white jade bracelet, and rosy sky agate pendant given by Xia Dongchun, and asked Baojuan to deliver them to Huang Guiquan.

Soon, Baojuan brought back a stack of silver notes, totaling 1,820 taels.

Then I found the Jiangnan Misty Silk, Splendid Mountain and River Brocade, and Moonlight Frost Shadow Gauze given by Shen Meizhuang, as well as the Lu Silk, Palace Silk, and Kapok Silk distributed by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and asked them to use them for embroidery.

Because I had made a promise with my servants that I would take one-twentieth of the money earned from embroidery sales and give it to them.

Therefore, when the servants heard about embroidery, they were all happy. They became more diligent and serious when embroidering, pouring their heart and soul into every stitch.

I gazed at the six basins of golden cups on jade tables carefully presented by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Their petals were as white as solidified fat and as bright as the warm sun. They were placed quietly on the table, along with two boxes of extremely precious Dong'e Ejiao.

I naturally knew in my heart that tonight was my first time to sleep with the emperor.

Baojuan stood by, looking very happy, and took care of everything for me skillfully. Her joy was beyond words, and it seemed as if every inch of the air in the palace was filled with joy.

I, however, was surprisingly calm. Baojuan thought it was my first time being called upon, but I knew it had happened many times in my past lives.

It’s a pity that I never gave birth to a prince, and the emperor never truly loved me.
