Bloom of Winter Blood
After Gao Yang guessed Second Emperor Li's intention of bestowing the palace maids, he left the Divine Dragon Palace but did not return to his own residence. Her target was Ye Ting Palace.
Ye Ting Palace was where the palace maids lived. Without a doubt, Wu Mei Niang was in Ye Ting Palace at this time.
At this moment, in a garden in the southeast corner of Ye Ting Palace, a palace maid was kneeling on the cold floor tiles. The thin gauze clothes on her body could not block the cold winter wind at all. Her thin body trembled in the cold wind.
A jade-like hand covered her cheek, covering the palm print on her face. Her beautiful face was filled with determination as she stared at the robust female official in front of her.
Her thin lips opened and closed gently, and a voice like that of a lark came out."I wonder where I went wrong?"
Her trembling voice revealed the fear that the palace maid had for the female official in front of her, but her eyes were stubborn and firm, as if telling her that she would never yield.
"Humph! You still dare to ask what mistake you made? I told you to wash clothes, but you couldn't even do it properly. You washed a piece of Wang Cairen's gauze dress and the color faded. You caused me to be scolded, and you still dare to talk back?”
This female official had a strong body and did not seem to lose to a man. She spoke with full energy. She had already slapped him, but she felt that it was too light. She waved her hand angrily again.
"Pa!"
A crisp sound rang out. This time, it was from the other side of her face. Wu Meiniang's eyes were misty, but she bit her lips tightly to stop her tears from flowing out. She even said hatefully,"You shrew, you will fall into my hands one day!”
The female official flew into a rage when she heard this. She raised her hand and was about to slap him again. However, at this moment, their eyes met. The female official felt a deep chill and did not dare to slap him again.
She thought with some fear that this girl was already so charming at the age of fourteen. If one day Her Majesty took a fancy to her and she offended her to death, would she have a good ending?
At that time, he might not even be able to keep his life!
But soon, she felt that this possibility was very small, because this Wu Cong was said to be the descendant of a meritorious minister, but that meritorious minister had already died. Moreover, he had been bullied by his two half-brothers since he was young. His mother's family did not have any power, so she had no background. Although he was invited into the palace by the Emperor, he had only seen him once and never cared about him again. He was sent to the Ye Court where the palace maid lived.
It was likely that he had made His Majesty unhappy in some way, so there should be no more chances for him to be chosen.
Since she did not have a backer and did not have the chance to be chosen by the Emperor, what was there to be afraid of?
It seemed that he had been in the palace for a long time and had become timid. He was frightened by this little girl's words.
The female official was a little embarrassed and angry at her own cowardice. Then, she blamed everything on the girl in front of her and said angrily,"Little slut, you want me to wait for you? And you're still giving me a hard time? And it's still in your hands? You're going to wash clothes in the Ye Court for the rest of your life, and you still dare to threaten me? Even if I suffocate you to death and throw you out of the palace, no one will say a word.？”
At this point, the female official could no longer suppress her anger. She had already slapped Wu Meiniang's face.
A thick palm landed on Wu Meiniang's face, and her face, which already had a palm print on it, quickly became red and swollen. Her entire head felt dizzy, and she felt a roar in her ears.
Although Wu Meiniang had been a strong woman since she was young, she was still only fourteen years old. Under the powerful slap of the burly female official, all her thoughts of revenge were shattered. All that was left was helplessness. The tears in her eyes could no longer be held back. They fell drop by drop as she knelt on the ground and wailed.
Wu Meiniang felt hopeless and helpless. Her father had died early, and her mother had no status at home. Her two brothers treated her as a commodity that could be bought and sold. Her status was even lower than that of a servant. They only wanted to get married as soon as possible and seek a betrothal gift.
He had thought that he had been summoned into the palace and escaped from the wolf's den with great difficulty. As long as he relied on his appearance to attract the emperor's favor, he could live a comfortable life. He did not expect that entering the palace was just going from the wolf's den to the tiger's den!
After all, she was only fourteen years old. At this time, she was really afraid. At least if she didn't enter the palace, she could still be saved. In this palace, she didn't know when she would be thrown into a well. There was no one to bury her.
The pain on her face was a small matter, but the despair in her heart made her want to go crazy. She didn't want to stay in this terrifying palace anymore, but she was summoned into the palace. Did she still have a choice?
Despair brewed in her heart. Finally, she felt that she might as well die!
At the moment when her desire to die was strong, her thoughts even resumed their rapid operation. She looked at the female official in front of her hatefully. She knew that if she died here now, the female official in front of her would definitely not be able to escape!
At the thought of this, Wu Meiniang's eyes burned with a flame. She quickly stood up and rushed towards the fake mountain in the courtyard. Soon, with a muffled bang, Wu Meiniang's forehead was installed with a fake mountain, and a blood-red color spread out.
