"My lord, the rules of the capital have yet to be familiar to me. I hazard to ask you what my offense is, so I can know the reason for the penalty!"
The thug clamped her neck, rubbing Gu Yunxi's soft cheek against the rough blue bricks. She struggled for an answer.
"How dare you question me? Speak the truth. Where did you get this flute? Did you steal it?"
With the jade flute in his hand, the manager walked around the table to Gu Yunxi, panting with rage. Keeping his head up, he was nothing but an arrogant smug.
Gu Yunxi was about to explode.
Although it was found in her baggage, she had not stolen anything and should never plead guilty to false charges.
Using her quick wits, she set up her mind and fabricated.
"It's mine. My past mother left it to me. I didn't steal it."

Stepping on the quiet moonlight, Ming Lan walked slowly to Gu Yunxi's back. He opened his mouth and puffed warm breath on her neck."Be so sure of yourself, aren't you? Do you wish to grow wings and fly out of the Garden?"His enchanting voice chilled Gu Yunxi's heart. Extremely nervous, she could almost feel her heart popping out of her mouth.How long had he been standing here? Had he seen through her disguise?While guessing wildly in her mind, she immediately knelt down humbly."Master Ming.""Um-hum."He watched her turn around and snorted casually.In the moonlight, the python robe was particularly white. The gorgeous brocade seemed to be flown with luster, covering his body like snow.The well-embroidered hem swept across Gu Yunxi's cheek.

The next day, Madam Du arranged for Gu Yunxi, Sun Shengsheng, and five other damsels to take the etiquette course to prepare for entering the Palace.The etiquette course that Madam Du personally taught them aimed to guide and drill their etiquette about sitting, standing, saluting, and dealing with others.After the seven damsels stood in two lines, one with three and one with four, Madam Du began to pose. She slowly raised her hands, saying."I'll only do it once. Look carefully. Raise your hands on the side of your left chest, and gently drop down on your left crotch. Then lift your right heel and bend your knees slowly and solemnly with your head bowed.And greet the one by saying — May you be healthy and happy."Remember, there is a difference between the curtsy and the fist-and-palm salute.

Youzhu Garden—After practicing and learning for one day, Madam Du sent someone to call Gu Yunxi to the purlin.Sitting on the rose chair, Madam Du was satisfied and smiled when she saw Gu Yunxi's natural and graceful salute.When Gu Yunxi got up, she said to her."Yesterday it emerged that Chuxiu Palace was in urgent need of more hands. I want to send you there as a servant. Your Grace with the surname of Xu is famous for being cold, but it would be easy to serve her because she does not have many requirements. A year ago, she gave birth to a prince and her position was strengthened.""I'm considering for you. If you miss this chance, it will be difficult for you to find it again because you are not very beautiful and do not have an eminent family background. Some time ago you offended the Master Ming.

Behind the mask, his sharp eyes were brilliant and cold like the stars in the sky."Leng Qingtang, the Commander-in-chief of the Eastern Depot... you really are nosy now. What kind of laws could the common people break if they just admire the moon and play the flute, entertaining themselves?"Leng Qingtang smiled lightly, with a cold and sharp light hidden between his narrow eyebrows."It's a delight to play the flute and admire the moon. However, Your Excellency deliberately showed off your skills and then broke in the Palace to steal the emperor's crown and robe. The liability was already inevitable for violating the national laws, and also it was unavoidable to go to the Eastern Depot."With a cold gaze quickly sweeping over the crowd of over fifty secret guards in front of him, he chuckled under the black iron mask."Master Leng, it was luc
