Chapter 3 Inquiry
Several hours passed, and I felt that my arms were not my own.I have to say, this broom is too heavy.Fortunately, I, Lin Kaiman, have studied various martial arts and yoga in the modern world, and my physical strength is not bad.

"Kaiman, it's time to eat." Huang Gu came over and told me.

"Okay Aunt Huang, I'll go right now."

I came to the place to eat, ten girls per table, two steamed buns per person, and a small plate of meat and vegetables.

I'm really embarrassed to say that this is the worst meal this girl has ever eaten.
As I ate, I thought, if what happened before was a dream, it's absolutely impossible now.After all, I was eating real food in my mouth.Am I accepting the fact that I have crossed over?

"Old rule, whoever leaves at the latest will clear the table!"

Huang Gu suddenly said this sentence, and everyone's eating speed immediately accelerated!I also gulps right away.Fortunately, I managed to finish it before everyone else finished it, but I almost choked to death.

I rarely eat steamed buns. I am a southerner and usually eat rice.

After eating, Aunt Huang said to me, "Your task tonight is to prune all the flowers in the yard, and then you can go back to rest."

"What? Work tonight?"

"What? You don't want to do it?"

"Hee hee Huang Gu, can we implement the eight-hour workday?"

Huang Gu glared at me: "Little girl, are you crazy again? What is the eight-hour workday?"

"Well, that means working no more than eight hours a day."

"Hahahahaha." Before I could finish speaking, Aunt Huang burst into laughter: "My Kayman, you are really stupid, absolutely stupid! Do you think you can have the final say in working in the palace? ? How many hours do you want to ask for every day?"

"Ah? It's eight o'clock in our place! It's weekends every week," I muttered in a low voice.

Huang Gu drank: "What about weekends every week! Don't think about being lazy! I tell you, in the past, the rules in this palace were that you couldn't finish the work and didn't allow you to eat! Moreover, the amount of one person is worth several people, and it can't be finished. If you are not allowed to eat, you have to be beaten! So people in the palace die every day! Either starve to death, exhaustion, or be beaten to death.”

"Ah" I pouted a little bit, I know Huang Gu wasn't joking with me.

"Fortunately, after the emperor ascended the throne, this rule was cancelled. Now the palace maids and eunuchs are all good, everyone works for six days and rests for one day. Some high-ranking officials work for five days and take two days off."

"Huh? Isn't this a double break in the modern world? Then this emperor is really good!"

"It goes without saying. But Cayman, seriously, do you really have amnesia?"

I nodded frantically.

"Okay! Seeing that you were good to my aunt in the past, I won't drive you away, just stay here and work hard!"

"Thank you Aunt Huang!"

As I mowed the flowers, I became curious again.What kind of person is this Emperor Yun Dynasty?How did he create the Department of Penalties?And why would they work for five days and take two days off?Could it be that, with a shake of my hand, the emperor will not come from the modern world like me, right?I immediately ran to find Huang Gu.

"Gu Huang! Are you there?"

"What's the matter, girl? Is the job done?"

"Huang Gu, I want to ask you, can we see the emperor?"

Huang Gu rolled her eyes: "Lin Kaiman, I warn you, go back to work! Do you know who we are? Don't talk about seeing the emperor, you can't even hear the emperor's voice!"

"No way..." Although I know that it is difficult to see the emperor, it does not mean that there is no way to see the emperor.

"Why not! Absolutely. Do you think you can see the emperor if you want to? There are so many concubines in the palace, but you can't see the emperor if you want. You are a little palace maid, and you also want to see the emperor? I'm afraid I'll die of laughter if you say it! But wait, I said you're not going to work, why are you asking this?"

"Huang Gu, I was wrong, I was wrong! I'll go to work now!"

I think I must find a way to meet the emperor, but seeing the emperor is not so easy.What Huang Gu said was right, I was just a palace maid.

Besides, I'm still not sure if the emperor really came through. If it's really an ancient person, wouldn't I be courting death?It seems that the only best way is to have a good relationship with the people in the palace and inquire about the affairs in the palace.

It was already dark, I raised my head and looked at the moon in the sky, tears fell unconsciously.At this time in the past, I have had dinner at home and took a hot bath, right?But now I am in a place where I am unfamiliar, or even impossible to exist.I miss my parents, I miss my classmates and teachers.

"Kayman, what's wrong with you?"

"Who?" I quickly wiped my tears.

A girl was standing in front of me, she was wearing the same maid's clothes as me.

"Alas! Aunt Huang said that you lost your memory, and we don't believe it. Now it seems so. You and I have the best relationship. You don't even recognize me now."

"Who are you, sister, I really don't know you."

"Kayman, there is no one else here, tell me the truth, do you really have amnesia?"

"Sister, I don't need to lie to you."
