Chapter 34
After walking out of the courtyard where the servants were resting for a long time, Xiao Xi could still vaguely hear their voices, which showed how fierce the two sides were arguing.

Xiao Xi smiled in satisfaction, ignored the farce behind her, turned around and went to find Gu Qian'er.

As a result, as soon as she entered the door, she saw Gu Qian'er sitting there quietly reading a book. Xiao Xi immediately held her heart and exclaimed secretly, the princess is so beautiful!
No matter how many times you watch it, Xiaoxi will still be amazed by Gu Qianer's face——

I saw Gu Qian'er wearing a lotus root pink dress, half leaning on the edge of the low table, holding a book in her hand.

The ten fingers are slender and slender, and they are a hundred times more beautiful than the fine suet white jade. When held by such hands, the books that can be bought everywhere seem much more precious.

The exquisite and beautiful eyebrows are slightly lowered, and the face is calm, obviously looking at the book in his hand seriously.

But this does not prevent Xiao Xi from admiring Gu Qian'er's beautiful face, feeling in her heart, as expected, a real beauty is beautiful no matter what.

A slight smile on weekdays can make the person who sees this smile feel astonished that the flowers all over the mountains and plains bloom instantly in front of your eyes. Only Gu Qian'er's smile is left in your mind, and you can't think of the others.

Now the appearance of reading quietly like this gives people a feeling that the ice and snow fairy has come to the world, and everything is inferior, making people speechless, even reluctant to blink, for fear that in the blink of an eye, the fairy will float away...

Xiaoxi was indulging in the princess's peerless beauty, but Gu Qian'er was the first to notice the person standing outside the door.

Seeing Xiaoxi covering her heart, looking at her without blinking, with a look of ecstasy, Gu Qian'er is no longer surprised.

"Xiaoxi? What are you doing standing at the door? Come in." Gu Qian'er closed the book in her hand and said towards the door.

As soon as Gu Qian'er made a sound, Xiao Xi immediately came back to his senses and hurried over.

After walking to Gu Qian'er's side, she spoke very sweetly, "Princess, you are so beautiful, I can't take my eyes away every time I look at you."

Gu Qian'er was used to what she said a hundred and eighty times, and asked directly, "What did you do just now, I see that you are very happy now."

Of course Xiaoxi was happy, she had uttered such a bad breath, and punished and deterred the group of slaves, and now that group of people had internal strife, how could she not be happy.

"Princess, it's better for you, slave girl last night..."

Xiaoxi told what she did last night, and what happened in the servant's yard just now, without any concealment.

After listening, Gu Qian'er said, "Aren't you afraid that they will just break the door regardless?"

"What are you afraid of!" Xiaoxi was very calm, "They will beat me up at most, as long as my life is still alive, I will crawl in front of the prime minister and sue them!"

Seeing Xiaoxi's sincere and firm expression and attitude, Gu Qian'er's heart moved, but she didn't say anything.

"Princess, what should we do next?" Xiaoxi didn't continue the topic just now, just wanted to know what to do next.

"Just wait," Gu Qian'er said calmly, "You don't have to pay attention to those people anymore." After two days, someone will naturally be unable to hold back and will come to him on his own initiative.

Xiaoxi looked confused, but still obediently didn't ask any further questions, just nodded, "I understand."

It doesn't matter, let's just ignore it, anyway, I won't die if I starve for two or three days, Xiaoxi thought so.

The quarrel between Wang Gui and the maids finally came to an end, the courtyard was silent, coupled with the two rooms whose doors and windows were nailed up with wooden boards, it looked depressing and dull.

Several maids were sitting around a table, silently drinking the tea in their hands—they had scolded too much just now, and their throats were dry and sore.

And Wang Gui's situation is not very good, except for one against six, the voice of cursing has dried up, and the small group headed by him in the room has completely disappeared.

Everyone sat in various parts of the room, bowed their heads in silence, and no one was in the mood to speak.

After being quiet for a long time, someone finally spoke up, "What should we do? Don't we just let others shut us up like this, and we don't do anything?"

As soon as the voice fell, someone next to him retorted: "Then what do you want, if we dare to break the door and go out, then the woman dares to stab the matter in front of the prime minister, do you dare to move?"

"..."

Now no one spoke anymore, in fact, after Xiaoxi told her plan, all of them had already erased the way of breaking the door in their hearts.

"If only I had done my job well from the start."

I don't know who mumbled something in a low voice.

The needle drop could be heard quietly in the room, even though the man had lowered his voice, other people in the room still heard it.

He couldn't help but think, yes, if they had been doing their jobs honestly from the beginning, how could they have come to this point where they were coerced by others, and they were in a dilemma.

Thinking of what the group of maids scolded Wang Gui just now, they first felt that what the other party said was reasonable, then they agreed with it, and finally even had the same idea as those maids, thinking that Wang Gui had harmed them.

Feeling the vague blame and resentment in the eyes of those around him who looked over, Wang Gui was so angry that he scolded his mother.

But he also knew that he was alone now, outnumbered and outnumbered, and he would be the one who would suffer if there was a head-on conflict.

Not only can there be no conflicts, but also try to appease them, after all, he doesn't know how long they will be imprisoned.

If they can't get out and let those people's hostility towards him, they will attack him sooner or later.

After thinking about it, Wang Gui coughed lightly, drawing everyone's attention, and then said, "Don't worry, everyone, we won't be imprisoned for too long."

Facing the obviously questioning eyes of those people, Wang Gui continued to explain, "Even if that woman is determined not to let us go, people outside will be suspicious if they don't see us until the time comes. It'll be fine."

"What's more, we are still serving the princess. If there are any good and bad things about the people below, if it gets out, the princess' reputation will be bad."

"So you can rest assured that we will be able to go out by tomorrow at the latest."

When the others heard it, they also felt that Wang Gui's words were reasonable, and while they were relieved, the atmosphere eased a lot.

Naturally, Wang Gui also noticed it, and continued to work hard, "This time, in the final analysis, it was because I offended someone, that the brothers who were harmed suffered this crime with me. After we go out, please go to the restaurant outside and have a good time. If you rub it together, it's an apology to my brothers."

Originally, when they heard Wang Gui said that they would be able to go out tomorrow, they were relieved a lot. Now that they heard Wang Gui say this again, the prejudice and blame in their hearts completely disappeared.

The room was lively again, and I felt that it was no big deal if I couldn't get out of the room or eat today.

In this way, Wang Gui and the others waited for one day, two days, and until the third day, there was still no movement in the yard, as if they had been forgotten.

"What should we do? It's the third day now, and no one in our yard has come. Are we going to starve to death here?"

The first ones who couldn't bear it were the maids.

Since they entered the palace as servants, they have never been hungry, but now, they have not eaten for three days.

The girls were hungry and scared, and finally couldn't hold back, and cried into a ball of grievance.

Wang Gui's room is not much better.

They were all young and strong men who ate a lot and digested quickly, and their condition was worse than those of the maids.

The girls still had the strength to cry, and the men were lying on the bed limp and unable to move.

A group of people were so hungry that their eyes were dizzy, their limbs were weak, and they finally began to regret their stupid actions...

 Here @拍望环小喜, your reminder has been received by the author, and I will definitely work hard to code and guarantee updates, so I won’t let you down.
