Chapter 145 She is here to find someone
When Chu Huanyan arrived at Huanyi Bureau, it happened to be lunch time.

However, some of the little palace maids were still washing their clothes. I don't know if they were scrambling for time after lunch and did not dare to rest, or if they didn't even eat at all.

As for those in the Huanyi Bureau, except for those who made mistakes and were demoted, most of them were sent here without even meeting the master of the palace after entering the palace.So naturally I didn't know Xiao Jinzhi and Chu Huanyan. Just seeing their clothes, I guessed that they must have extraordinary status. They were kneeling on the ground without raising their heads.

Chu Huanyan took a look at their hands. They had been soaked in water all day long, regardless of spring or autumn, and were constantly washing clothes. So at a glance, almost all of their hands had deformed joints, and even had scars left by frostbite.

The eunuch in charge of the Huanyi Bureau, who was resting, was confused when he heard that a noble person was coming, but he still hurried over.

He recognized Xiao Jinzhi, was startled, and immediately wanted to salute.

"No need." Xiao Jinzhi waved his hand and motioned for everyone to get up.

The eunuch in charge was frightened, "I don't know why His Highness the Crown Prince is here today... What I mean is that His Highness the Prince will drive to the entire Huanyi Bureau to make it shine... No, what I mean is that His Royal Highness has a distinguished status, and the Huanyi Bureau is like this..."

"Okay, no need to say more." Xiao Jinzhi interrupted the eunuch in charge.

"Yes, yes." The eunuch in charge responded nonchalantly, with cold sweat starting to form on his forehead.

Chu Huanyan looked him up and down. Although this was the Huanyi Bureau, it was impossible for the concubines and princes in the harem to set foot here on weekdays.But the eunuch in charge seemed a little too nervous.

If you are a bit brave, you should seize the opportunity at this time and work hard to please, so as to get a better job.

"Lead the way, I want to go to Qiuyuan."

"Your Highness is going to Qiuyuan?" The eunuch in charge was obviously stunned and asked cautiously, "There are a lot of old ladies living there. Your Highness, are you... correct?"

"No, just lead the way." Xiao Jinzhi said calmly.

"Yes." Eunuch Guan quickly responded, "Your Highness, please come this way."

Chu Huanyan followed Xiao Jinzhi and walked towards the west of Huanyi Bureau.

It is said to be Qiuyuan, but in fact it is just a medium-sized courtyard located to the west of Huanyi Bureau. Today, only about a dozen old ladies live there.

According to the eunuch in charge, the youngest among them is over 60 years old.

The eunuch in charge is named Zhang Changxi, and he has been in charge of the Clothing Bureau for five years.

"Five years is not a short time. Hasn't Eunuch Zhang thought of finding another place to go?" Chu Huanyan asked.

Zhang Changxi replied with a respectful smile, "I am just a small eunuch in charge of this palace. I may not be good at other things. However, in this department, they say that practice makes perfect. Even now, I can say that I am an expert." It's handy. It's good if it can share the worries of the masters. As for where it is, whether it's decent or not, I don't care."

Speaking, Zhang Changxi added another sentence.

"Besides, I may be a lackluster servant, but I quite like this clothing bureau."

As soon as he said this, he just wanted to show directly that he was working honestly and willingly to stay in the clothing bureau. Even if His Highness the Crown Prince had the intention, he would not need any extra care.

Chu Huanyan glanced at Zhang Changxi curiously.

He was obviously very nervous just now, and even started to break into a cold sweat, but after such a short time, the other party suddenly became calmer.

Qiuyuan has arrived. Zhang Changxi stepped forward and opened the door, shouting inside again: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived." In the yard, there was an old lady with gray hair who was sunbathing with her eyes closed. She probably had bad ears. , although he didn't seem to be asleep, there was no reaction.

There was some movement in the room, but no one came out. Only an old voice was heard speaking.

"Eunuch Zhang, don't be joking."

"We are not kidding, His Highness the Crown Prince has really arrived, why don't you hurry up and salute!" Zhang Changxi raised his voice again, with a hint of urgency in his tone.

Finally, a few nuns slowly walked out of the house.

Some of them had seen Xiao Jinzhi, who was stunned at the door for a long time, and exclaimed "Your Highness the Crown Prince". Then everyone staggered forward, wanting to kneel down and salute.

"No need." Xiao Jinzhi said in time to stop them.

Grandma, who was basking in the sun, also opened her eyes at this time. The person next to her gestured to her and then to Xiao Jinzhi. She was so frightened that her face suddenly changed and she fell off the chair.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, forgive me. Your Highness, the Crown Prince, forgive me..." A trembling voice sounded, and the old woman struggled to kneel down.

Xiao Jinzhi motioned to the people next to her to help her, and then said that she was old after all, and asked them to sit down and talk.

The mothers were flattered, and finally, under Qin Li's persuasion, they all nervously found a seat in the yard and sat down.

Zhang Changxi personally moved two chairs out of the room and respectfully asked Xiao Jinzhi and Chu Huanyan to sit down. He also treated Qin Li and Xianyue with courtesy.

"Your Highness, why are you here in Qiuyuan?" A nanny asked nervously.

Xiao Jinzhi glanced at Zhang Changxi, who immediately understood, "Your Highness, this servant is waiting outside the garden. If you have anything to do, just give me your orders."

After saying that, he retreated respectfully.

After Zhang Changxi left, Xiao Jinzhi glanced at Chu Huanyan, who then said, "Aunts, excuse me, but I actually begged His Highness the Crown Prince to bring me here today to find someone."

"Find someone?"

The nuns looked at each other and didn't know how to address Chu Huanyan. Finally, the nun who was the first to ask her why she came said.

"I wonder who this noble man wants to find?"

"I don't know who she is. I just remember that when I was young, I followed my parents to the palace. As a result, I lost my way and fell into a well. Fortunately, I was rescued by a palace maid. At that time, I was too young and forgot to ask As for her name, I only remember that when she rescued me, she had a sachet hanging on her waist. After so many years, I can no longer remember her face, but I remember the sachet deeply."

Chu Huanyan paused and watched everyone continue to speak.

"When I entered the palace some time ago, I accidentally picked up the exact same sachet. After I returned, I had dreams for several nights in a row, all of which were about the palace maid saving me. Every time I woke up, I always felt uncomfortable. Maybe it was God. Someone was guiding me, so I wanted to find the palace maid and thank her sincerely. But after asking around the palace, I couldn't find the person from back then."

This reason was made up casually by Chu Huanyan on the way here.

Although she came back to look for the palace maid who saved her after many years, this reason is hard to believe.

But as luck would have it, these words came out of Chu Huanyan's mouth, with a sincere tone and that pleasing face, which instantly made her more credible.
