This scene has appeared in my dreams many years later and still appears frequently.

  Xiang Yun rushed all the way to the highest place, her phoenix coronet and red dress were blown away by the strong wind, revealing her white clothes underneath.

  Chao Sheng shouted with all her might, but she didnt even know what she had just shouted.

  Han Xun stopped at the edge of the balcony, turned around and glanced at her, smiling softly. Just like when he first entered the palace, his smile was as gentle as spring water.

  She leaped forward, her skirt fluttering open in mid-air like a blooming flower.

  This flower bloomed for just one moment.

  (This wedge is really short, so I wont post it separately~~~XD)

  ——————————————————————

  What kind of person is Chao Sheng?

  If you ask Han Xiang and Cai Zhen who entered the palace with her, they would definitely say: "This girl is silly."

  At first glance, Chao Sheng indeed looked a bit silly. When she first entered the palace, her bangs covered her forehead, even covering her eyes, and she always hung her head to look at her toes, as if someone had dropped two gold bars on the ground for her to pick up.

  If you ask other people in the Yunxia Palace a little later, about 7 or 8 out of 10 people would say: "Skilled hands, but clumsy mouth."

  What if Chao Sheng said it himself?

  Chao Sheng said: Im a jinx, and Ive been jinxed to the point where I couldnt be any more jinxed. I slipped on an ice stick that someone had thrown on the ground and fell - but thats nothing, who doesnt fall a few times a year? But why can others get up from a fall, while she falls into another dimension?

  Alright, this kind of situation is called crossing over.

  Chao Sheng didnt even have time to mourn for her past life. The first feeling she had after crossing over was hunger.

  She had no idea that when people are extremely hungry, their sense of smell becomes even more sensitive. The aroma of cooking smoke and rice wafted from somewhere far away, making her stomach twist into a knot, an indescribable feeling.

  But she shouldnt go anywhere else either. After a day and night, she was the only one left in this house.

  Is this child an orphan?

  Before she came over, how did this child live? She searched around and couldnt find anything edible, nor was there anything that looked valuable.

  In the end, someone knocked on the door, it was the neighbor from next door who sent her two thick pancakes.

  "Hei Yaotou, wheres your uncle?"

  She focused all her attention on the pancake, and when the person asked her something, she just shook her head.

  This family has always had only her, and that uncle who doesnt know what he looks like has never come back.

  She knew her own surname was He, and the neighbors surname was Cui. Mrs. Cui had supported her for a good period of time, but she couldnt always rely on others to support herself.

  She later became a palace maid.

  Being a palace maid was not easy, I had been beaten, punished to kneel, and once my mouth was pinched by the senior palace maid with a bamboo clip for a whole day, it was swollen for two days before it subsided.

  Sometimes she would imagine herself going back in time, waking up to find herself still in her own bed, with her mother bringing her favorite chicken noodle soup to the bedside to coax her into eating.

  But whether she wakes up with a smile or tears in her dream, everything is as usual when she wakes up.

  She gradually gave up and devoted herself to learning skills and rules, striving to survive in this era.

  This new body is very clever, much more clever than the one in his previous life, and also handy.

  She can draw flowers, embroider flowers, make lace, cut clothes, recognize characters, keep accounts, and one more thing - she knows how to braid hair.

  This may also require talent. As long as she has seen a hairstyle once, she can style it in the same way. She can even think of ways to style it herself.

  This is also a good skill for making a living. In the future, if I can get out of the palace, I can rely on this to earn a bowl of rice.

  In April, she and Han Xun and Cai Zhu were assigned to serve in the Yanyu Palace.

  Yanxiagong Palace is home to a imperial concubine, a beauty and two talented women.

  The princesss surname is Chen, and she is twenty-five or six years old. In Chaos view, this is the best time for a woman, but in this palace, those who entered the palace at the age of ten or so, after staying in the palace for ten years, no matter who looks at them, are already considered "old" women.

  Han Xun was a bit taller, with fair skin, and was directly chosen by Chen Fei. Cai Zhu was assigned to Xu Zai Ren, while Chao Sheng returned to Huang Mei Ren. As a result, in June, Huang Mei Ren fell ill and passed away. Chao Sheng did some odd jobs for two days, and Han Xun and Chen Feis senior palace maid Wang Mei had a conversation, after which Chao Sheng was also assigned to the front yard of Chen Feis residence.

  Ah, its worth mentioning that both Huán Xūn and Cǎi Zhū had their names changed. Huán Xūn was originally surnamed Liú, named Liú Lán, and was renamed by Empress Liú. The name comes from a poem, which Cháo Shēng once recited to Huán Xūn: "In the quiet courtyard, the elegant orchid blooms, awaiting the clear breeze." Although Huán Xūn didnt quite understand what it meant, she pestered Cháo Shēng to write down the characters, and then practiced writing them over and over again. Cháo Shēng arrived late and missed the batch renaming by Empress Chen, but he was also satisfied with his original name, so there was no need for Empress Chen to intervene.

  It is said that they are serving the imperial concubine, but it is difficult for Caos family to even see Concubine Chen, let alone the emperor.

  Chao Sheng and Han Xun lived in the same room, also because Han Xun took care of her. As summer arrived, the weather was extremely hot, and Chao Shengs original house had four people, with Tong Shui washing his face and feet inside, making a mess on the floor, which made it even more humid and stifling. Someone who couldnt bear the heat opened a window slightly, but the person next to him shouted: "Quickly close it, do you want to let mosquitoes in to bite people to death?"

  So she could move in and live with Hanyun, Chao Sheng was quite happy. For several days in a row, Chao Sheng helped Hanyun comb her hair. Chao Sheng was skilled at it, and the hairstyle of the palace maid was simple, so it was done quickly and well, using only a small amount of hair oil to make it neat and shiny, which was quite impressive.

  "Your craftsmanship is really good." Huanyin took a copper mirror and looked at it from front to back: "I think the green jade beside the queen is not as good as yours."

  "I can only braid it in a simple way like this. The noble ladys hairstyle is too complicated for me to imitate."

  "Not necessarily." Xiangyun whispered: "Next time I have a chance, Ill mention it to Wangmei sister, maybe..."

  "Hey, dont mess with him." Chao Sheng hastily said: "Qing Jing is not someone to be trifled with."

  Qing Jing was a senior palace maid beside Empress Chen, serving her daily by combing her hair. She was skilled with both hands and mouth. However, when not in front of the empress, she would change to another face - sharp-tongued and violent. In the Yunxia Palace, except for Wang Mei and Hua Liang, a few senior palace maids, everyone else had suffered from her temper.

  Usually so, let alone what Xiangxun said, its like snatching her rice bowl. If Qingjing knew about it, wouldnt she be furious?

  Han Xun smiled and said: "Just saying it, there wont be another chance to say it again, Qing Jing is watching very seriously."

  But the opportunity came soon. In less than two days, Qingjing caught a chill at night and fell ill with fever, which made it impossible for her to attend to her duties. I dont know what Hanyun and Wangmei said, but a little palace maid came over to summon Chao Sheng.

  Chao Sheng had never been in Chen Feis inner chamber before. Chen Feis bedroom was located in the west wing, and she usually lived in the east wing. The palace maid lifted the embroidered curtain, Chao Sheng took light steps, walked into the room, took a glance, and knelt down to pay his respects.

  "Get up, I heard youre good at combing your hair. What kind of hairstyles can you do?" Chen Feis voice was soft and gentle, with a hint of morning laziness.

  Tidal life is fixed, and the gentle voice said: "There are few who can, I dont know what kind of hairpin the princess usually wears?"

  Wang Mei said with a gentle smile: "Fei Yan, Xi Yun, can you do these?"

  Chao Sheng nodded and said: "I can, but Im afraid that combing it will not meet your expectations, Your Ladyship."

  "Never mind, just try it."

  Chao Sheng felt a little sweaty in her palms, she had combed her own hair and others before, but for someone of Chen Feis status, it was the first time. Combing others hair, if not done well, could be redone from the start, and even if it hurt a bit, it didnt matter. But combing the hair of a princess, couldnt be careless at all.

  Wang Mei handed her the comb, with a few encouraging eyes: "Dont be afraid, just comb it as usual."

  The things used by Chen Fei are naturally good, the dressing table is complete with fine and delicate hairpins, hair oil and other utensils. The copper mirror is not as crude as the one seen before, it is polished to be exceptionally smooth and bright, the person reflected in it except for a slight yellowish tint, does not have any distortion.

  Chao Sheng didnt dare to look more, tense and stiff all over, until she finished combing Chen Feis hair, both arms were sore and not very obedient. She took a small pearl flower from the box and replaced it for Chen Fei one by one. The pearl flowers were only as big as fingernails, delicate and exquisite, with sparkling dots. A few pearl flowers were scattered among the hairs, looking light and elegant, and people seemed to have become younger.

  Wang Mei handed over the lotus flower mirror, "Let Queen Chen take a closer look." Queen Chen smiled slightly: "The craftsmanship is really good."

  She said that, Wang Mei handed over a purse. Chao Sheng didnt dare to take it, and Empress Chen smiled and said: "Take it, look at how scared you are, its pitiful, Im not going to eat you."

  After coming out, Chao Sheng found that her back was all sweaty. She opened her purse to take a look and found a small plum blossom silver ingot inside.

  Xun returned and asked her: "How was it?"

  Chao Sheng handed her purse over for her to see, and Huan Xun smiled even more happily than Chao Sheng.

  "The girls are quite satisfied, and Wang Mei also said that you combed well. When I get back, Ill talk to her about it and transfer you..."

  Chao Sheng busily shook his head: "Dont mention it, Qing Jing will only be ill for a day or two, and when she recovers, itll still be her duty."

  Taking up the green mirror, Han Xiang also felt a bit disheartened: "Alas, to say this person is indeed a thorn in the side, not easy to deal with."

  Even if its not a thorn in the side, when ones status is threatened, they will still make a desperate struggle. Speaking of which, Chao Sheng thinks that Huan Xun is good for himself, but wanting to plot against this hairdressing job isnt exactly a beautiful thing to do.

  It is reasonable to say that people tend to go to higher places, but it also depends on what kind of high place and how to get there.

  Chen Fei only grew one head and didnt need two or three palace maids to take care of her hair. If she wanted to go up, she had to step on the green mirror.

  But would Qing Jing be willing? Shes not a fool after all.

  She is not only not foolish, but also very sharp and incisive.

  In the palace, everyone has sharpened their heads to climb up, but only a few have succeeded, and most people are drifting with the tide. Those who have already climbed up are always trembling with fear, afraid of being trampled down by others, and their glory is precarious. Usually, when nothings wrong, the eunuchs still bully them, let alone when something happens?

  Theres a saying that goes, "Clothes are not as good as new ones, and people are not as good as old friends." Zhen Fei was more familiar with and used to Qing Jing. The fact that Chao Sheng made her feel fresh this time didnt mean she really dressed better than Qing Jing.

  Chao Shengs premonition was spot on. The next day, Qing Jing recovered from his fever and struggled to get up, doing his job as usual.
