C9 Out of Town

At this time, Yuan Jinsi turned around and sat in the bathtub. This bathtub was also made from yellow rosewood. After soaking in it for a long time, it would make people feel relaxed.

A new name in the palace is something to be paid attention to. This means that from today onwards, your master will be your master. No matter what mistakes you make outside, as long as you announce your master's name, you will be able to escape calamity.

The maidservants from before weren't some random slave that stirred up trouble. They would usually do things in peace and quiet, never offending anyone, nor would they compete for the love of others.

These things were taboo in the eyes of Yuan Jinsi. In the entire palace, no one dared to offend them. Even some ministers would have to give a bit to Yuan Jinsi if they saw him.

At this time, Yuan Jinsi pointed at the maidservant at the front and said, "From today onwards, you will be called Yanzhi, and the one behind will be Begonia. I'll give you two names Qiu Xue and Hong Meng."

When the four maidservants heard this, they did not think too much and directly knelt down to express their gratitude. To Yuan Jinsi, taking a name was one of the few things that were interesting.

At this time, Yuanjin Se had Yanzhi bring over the pastries in her hands. These were all things that she loved to eat the most in the past, so she was very proficient in cooking in the imperial kitchens.

The basket was divided into seven layers. Each layer had its own secrets and each item was very unique. The top layer was made up of dessert like the Peach Blossom Cake and the bottom layer was made up of candied fruits.

Yuan Jinsi looked at the food and took out all of them before giving them to the four palace maids. He was used to living a life of poverty. When these palace maids ate these pastries, they actually started to cry.

Looking at their grateful expressions, he said in a light voice, "You are all useless people, and these few pastries are enough to bribe you to such an extent. All four of you will be working for me in the future, so I believe that Prince Consort has come looking for you, but from today onwards, no matter where you come from, you will all be my men. If you disobey me even a little, or betray me, I have a thousand ways to kill your entire family."

The court ladies' faces changed drastically when they heard this. They didn't know that their master was a fickle person. Just a moment ago, he was still so enthusiastic, but now, his expression suddenly changed.

These people didn't have time to say anything and could only nod while crying.

At this time, Yuan Jinsi looked at the few people in front of him who didn't seem to have any temper, and picked up a piece of candied fruit, putting it in his mouth and carefully savoring it.

The sky had already begun to darken. The Imperial City would not be allowed to leave after the sky had darkened. At this time, the Jin Jiusi waved his hand towards the palace maids, signaling them to leave.

After these people left, Yuan Jinshi got up and changed his clothes. He then went to his bed and took out a box from the bottom of the bed.

Even though the wooden chest in front of him looked ordinary on the surface, he felt that it had been meticulously designed by a master craftsman for several generations. Just the lock of the wooden box itself took more than ten years.

If you didn't have the key, even if you hacked at it with your sword, the box wouldn't budge at all.

At this moment, Yuan Jinsi walked straight to his table with the key of the box under it. Inside the box was a dagger used by the number one swordsman in the world, named Qi Under Heaven.

Back then, the number one blademaster in the world had gifted this blade to Jinsha's father for a good reward, and it had been a coincidence. In the end, this blade had fallen into his hands.

Although this blade was only an inch long, it cut through metal like mud and hid in the sleeve. No one would have discovered that this was the best weapon an assassin could use, since the blade was in his hands, Yuan Jinping didn't even dare to kill a chicken before, but now, if Song Xicheng was in front of him, Yuan Jinsi would not hesitate to stab him in his heart.

Back then, because he was a lady from a noble family, Yuan Jinsi had never practiced martial arts. However, he had secretly practiced all sorts of defensive martial arts.

These were the guards that were in charge of this place back then. They were to write down every single word to Yuan Jinser and then practice according to those words. As long as there was a chance, killing a person shouldn't be a problem.

Yuan Jinsi hid the dagger in his sleeve. Although he had a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart, he could not reveal it on the surface. The time had not come yet, when it was time for him to kill his enemy with his own hands.

However, when he thought of this, Yuan Jinsi's heart still ached a little. The feelings of love and hate continued to surge in his heart, making it hard for him to calm down for a time.

The maidservants outside the door waited for a long time, but their master still had not come out. They anxiously stood at the door and watched, and then quietly shouted, "Your highness, the weather is cold, please put on your clothes. Be careful of the cold, we cannot afford to wait."

Only at this moment did Yuan Jinsi come back to his senses and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. In the eyes of outsiders, Yuan Jinsi was a character who acted with great speed and with great speed, and he had never been seen as a joke by outsiders.

He turned to them and said, "You will go to the Shangli Courtyard at the back of the courtyard tomorrow and each of you will go get a new set of clothes. From today onwards, you will all be wearing my symbol, and there will be a crabapple flower on your left sleeve. When the other palace maids see this crabapple flower, they will not dare to do anything to you.

When the palace maids heard this, they were immediately overjoyed. However, they did not dare to display such an expression because they had been bullied for far too long. They had all forgotten how it felt to lift up their chests to act like a human.

There was an old saying that people had no choice but to lower their heads under the eaves, not to mention that the ranks within the palace were strict. Only these four people knew the hardships they had gone through during the selection from the lowest to the lowest.

At this time, Yuan Jinsi immediately ordered these people to pack up their belongings and follow him out to eat. The sky outside quickly darkened, so escaping under the cover of night was not a difficult matter.

At first, the palace maids were unwilling, afraid that once they were caught, the higher-ups would blame them. However, the princess wouldn't help them with it. If they were to be found out, it would be a capital offense.

The four of them could only nod their heads as they prepared the horse carriages. When the guards saw that the princess had already left the palace, they did not dare to ask any further as they knew that they would be able to escape once the guards of the palace gates were settled.
