My name is Liu Qinghe. I have been in the palace for ten years. I am a senior third-class palace maid in the Shangyi Bureau. My greatest skill is lying down. The new emperor ascended the throne to optimize personnel, and everyone in the palace was in danger, but I was eager to be optimized out. The ten taels of severance pay from the Ministry of Internal Affairs was enough for me to buy two acres of thin farmland in the countryside for retirement. Aunt Tanxiang, the head of the Shangyi Bureau, holds meetings every day and lectures me, cheering me up. The new emperor has no eyes for sand. Look at you, the stitches are crooked, there are too many threads, and the ironing is burnt! Just wait to be assigned to the clothes bureau and spend the rest of your life in service!
