Han Dongwen fell down on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.
As the saying goes, a penny beats a hero.
If I don’t have money, I’m afraid I can only buy bones.
If you were suddenly asked which bone in your body is the most unnecessary, how would you answer?
Do teeth count?
I'm afraid it doesn't count.
"Is there any bone in my body that I don't need? Is there a bone called the coccyx?"
He subconsciously reached out and touched his butt, then pulled back a little disappointed.
"...I don't know how to take out the bones. If I make an incision here, I will have to sleep standing up for the rest of my life."
Han Dongwen sighed, took out a small jade plaque from his arms, held it in his hand and looked at it.
This jade plaque was naturally returned to him by Jiang Keyin, the jade plaque of Xiaohongdou.
During the day in Tianchi Palace, when Han Dongwen asked Jiang Keyin to get the jade token back, Jiang Keyin just stared at him with interest, and then took out the jade token generously.
"That palace maid, of course, there is no reason for the Department of Justice to silence her now."
Han Dongwen felt Jiang Keyin's gaze and said this bravely.
"Everyone in this palace has a way to protect themselves. If she is not stupid, she will naturally figure it out. If she is stupid, if His Highness saves her this time, there will be another time."
And Jiang Keyin answered him like this.
After hearing this, Han Dongwen just smiled, took the jade token and put it in his arms: "After all, she is the one following me. I said I would protect her, so I have to do it after all."
Just kidding, without the opportunity brought by Xiaohongdou, how could Han Dongwen be able to sit across from Jiang Keyin and talk calmly like he is now?
"Isn't Ke'er one of His Highness?"
"Ah, okay, okay."
…
Now the jade tablet was lying in Han Dongwen's hand. He tossed and turned for a moment, and finally shook his head.
"Let's think about whether there are any other ways to get money tomorrow. If it doesn't work, we can only think about it in the long term."
Bored before going to bed, he reached under the pillow again, preparing to take out the Xuanji plate to take a look at the forum.
Maybe besides him, there will be videos of people from other places released, in that case he will be able to understand some things outside the palace.
He held the Xuanji Pan in his hand.
Han Dongwen stared at the jade plate blankly and did not open the forum.
After a while, he smiled, as if he had heard some funny joke, and smacked his thigh with joy.
"Why didn't I think of it? Why didn't I think of it?"
Only then did Han Dongwen realize that he still had some abilities to make the best use of everything.
If he is right, then at least he already has an understanding of the material that reaches the marrow!
Can save bones!
"I'll go to Taishu Pavilion tomorrow..."
With this thought in mind, he walked to the door of his dormitory and knocked lightly on the door beam.
"The servant is here, Your Highness."
Immediately, the voice of the maid outside the door came.
There are always three maids on duty at this night, and two of them stood close by the bedroom. These two maids could not sleep all night in the past. They always had to pay attention at night to hear how Han Dongwen slept at night. His breathing was still smooth, and he got up again. How many nights have I spent, how many times have I turned over.
These details are all related to the emperor's health. If the Imperial Hospital asks them, they will definitely be able to answer them.
In addition, they have to kneel naked all night in the dormitory, suffering from the cold, kneeling in place, but still paying attention to so many details, it is really a torturous job.
But Han Dongwen was not used to this, so he only ordered them to stay on duty outside the dormitory door. If there was nothing important, there was no need to enter the dormitory.
If he wanted something or had any instructions, all he had to do was go to the door and knock.
"Inform Yingchun Palace that Xiao Hongdou will be on duty tomorrow."
If Han Dongwen's idea works, then maybe we can start working on this matter tomorrow.
In this case, the people around you should be your own people.
After hearing this, the two maids outside the door looked at each other meaningfully, nodded in unison and came down.
Since they had to deliver the message, the two of them naturally did not dare to delay, leaving one to stay here while the other maid temporarily retired and returned to Yingchun Palace.
——————
In the Spring Palace.
During the usual rest time, Xiao Hongdou was not used to being too close to other palace maids. They usually just had dinner together in the Yingchun Palace and listened to Mi Niangniang talk about the arrangements for the next day.
Don't eat too much for dinner, not to treat them badly, but if you eat too much, people will inevitably get sleepy easily.
A servant must always be smart.
At this time, Xiao Hongdou was staying in the room. The maids had dinner later. There was a small lamp lit on the small table in front of her, and a piece of letter paper was spread on the table. She was planning to write a letter to her father. .
There is nothing that I have to say, I just want to say that I am safe - of course I will not talk about the previous assassination. Not only will it make my father more worried, but also because of the self-consciousness of being a palace maid.
This is not her own business, it is the Holy One's business. If she leaked the secret, it would be a dereliction of duty.
What's more, who knows how many hands the letter will pass through and how many times it will be checked?
Naturally, I can only talk about things that are neither salty nor bland. The weather is sunny and it has not snowed yet. I am living well in the palace. I have been blessed by the Holy Spirit and have made some friends. I am not alone.
After writing this, she stopped writing and sighed.
It is true that it has not snowed yet, and I am indeed under the care of His Highness.
But she didn't have many friends.
She is not particularly affectionate by nature, and she is the new sister to the palace, so she always has to behave according to the rules and be courteous to other sisters.
Since entering the palace, everyone else had just smiled politely and nodded when they saw her.
There was nothing wrong with this.
But after I learned the rules and served His Highness, I suddenly felt that other people looked at me very strangely.
Of course she didn't know. There were many rumors behind her back. Some people said that she was very favored by the Holy Emperor. Just because he felt sorry for her, he was exempted from the rule of palace maids undressing before going to bed.
Some people even say that this is no different from the palace ladies who were brought up by the Holy Emperor before. Maybe one day the Holy Lord will be ruined, and in the end all the palace ladies will have to be implicated and suffer.
In fact, being a palace maid is really a good job. You eat and drink from the palace, and you get a lot of money every month. Many palace maids always want to continue doing it.
But the premise is that Han Dongwen doesn't fall in love with it. If Han Dongwen falls in love with it, he might suffer some disaster.
Many people always want to continue to be palace maids, but they are also afraid that Han Dongwen will set his sights on Yingchun Palace again. They wish they could live in the palace easily, save monthly money, and have good conditions when they return to their hometown when they are old enough. You can also make your own living.
There are also some palace maids who are more open-minded and like to dream about concubines. In this way, they hate girls like Xiao Hongdou even more. They always take up His Highness's time and should be punished.
As a result, they were almost all dissatisfied with Xiao Hongdou, and would not even nod or smile when they met.
"Little Hongdou, what are you doing!"
A palace maid knocked on Xiao Hongdou's door. She quickly put down her pen and recognized the voice of Lu Sisi, Chi Hanqing's personal maid.
She was almost the only one who was close to Xiao Hongdou, but Xiao Hongdou didn't tell her about the suffering he had suffered.
After all, it is already rare for someone to be kind to you, so how can you ask others to care about you more?
