Chapter 16: Beheading the Crowd (Correcting Typos)
Wen Rao woke up the next afternoon.
She was awakened by hunger.
"Liangyuan, you didn't go to the morning meeting." Silk Tong muttered.
"It doesn't matter." She is a little weak, Qi Yao is even wet with the rain and dew in the harem, if someone is jealous of her bedtime, it is completely unnecessary. It's just that if you don't go, you will inevitably fall into the impression of pampering, and she is not likable. If you want to come to a good lady, the virtuous concubine should not be taken seriously.
Wen Rao groomed in the mirror, and suddenly noticed that her lips were slightly swollen, and she was still a little numb when she touched the red and swollen places, and she suddenly felt displeased.
Looking at it like this, it's really ugly, Wen Rao chose plain lipstick makeup, wanting to cover up one or two.
"Liangyuan, there is a matter that the slave has to sue you." Silk Tong said as she pulled her sideburns.
"What's wrong?" When Wen Rao straightened her chest, she only felt a sore pain in her chest.
The garment had only been worn a few times, and his chest seemed to be half a minute tighter.
Wen Rao looked down and found that the belt of the palace maid's dress she had just dressed was a little tighter, she untied the strap again, re-tied it, and a shadow flew on it, Wen Rao frowned, and looked up to see Sitong staring at her chest.
Wen Rao: "......"
"Liangyuan, what did you eat to grow up......" Sitong smirked as she stared at her.
Wen Rao was choked by what she asked, this was not born with her, but she missed some rules.
She lost her mother when she was a child, and she never experienced many things that were bound by her mother and mother.
For example, women should tie their breasts after the festival to avoid oversized breasts that make people frivolous.
Although there is no strict regulation on this matter, it is only for the daughters of the high-ranking scholars, and the strict rules usually do so, and ordinary people, those who are particular about it, also follow suit, and regard the corset as an elegant thing.
No one in the Wen family is willing to teach Wen Rao this elegant thing, and since the death of Wen Ru's own mother, no one dares to lack her to eat.
Wen Rao eats well, sleeps well, and has talent, so she naturally develops very well.
"Ahem, what were you going to tell me just now?" Wen Rao put away her thoughts and asked.
"Ah...... By the way, Liangyuan, today, the Jing nobles once asked you to make an appointment to gather flowers and build a small gathering. Silk hesitated.
"When?" Wen Rao.
"It's three o'clock in the afternoon." Silk said.
Wen Rao thought about it, Jing Guiren's impression of her was not too deep, and she seemed to be a silent woman.
The spring light outside is brilliant, and the smoke makes people more and more lazy.
The small building of flowers completely blocks the sunlight, and the wind-permeable gauze tent is hung on all sides, and it is very cold to sit inside, and it is a cool house to escape the heat in summer.
At this time, few people come here.
"Concubine to Wen Liangyuan, please say goodbye."
Wen Rao looked at the woman in purple and frowned.
There are four people here, and it is Jing Guiren who asked her to come, and Wan Guiji who is standing next to Jing Guiren, and there is also Fang Cai who asks for peace...... She doesn't know her yet.
"Wen Liangyuan, she is Liang Xuan, the talent who has been promoted in this year's show girl, and her rank is not as good as yours." Wan Guiji rarely opened her mouth to explain to Wen Rao.
Wen Rao saw her looking at herself, knowing that her status was higher than her own, so she asked her to say goodbye, "Concubine to Wan Guiji." โ
Wan Guiji raised the corners of her lips and looked at her with satisfaction as she looked inferior to herself.
"Wen Liangyuan, although you are older than me, your rank is not as good as mine, so I won't call this sister." When she spoke again, she still had the same attitude of neither yin nor yang.
Wen Rao only thinks she is narrow-minded, but she doesn't know her embarrassing status, and it is because Wen Rao's sleep yesterday was stimulated.
Although she is pampered, in the entire harem, the place where Qi Yao has never been is her palace, let alone pampered.
Wen Rao knew that she deliberately provoked her, but she didn't answer her words, only pursed her lips and smiled, as if she didn't mind at all.
Wan Guiji didn't dwell on it, she turned around and sat down, there were refreshments and tea on the table, it seemed that she was indeed here to play.
"I don't know why the noble man asked me to come?" Wen Rao suddenly remembered something, and looked sideways at Jing Guiren.
Jing Guiren lowered his head and didn't speak, only listened to Wan Guiji say: "Wen Liangyuan is really, it's fun to come out, you have to get to the bottom of what to do, what?" Wouldn't you like to be with us? โ
"Sister Rao, this is the first time Xuan'er has seen you, Xuan'er toasts you." Liang Xuan handed over a cup of tea, smiling and groaning.
Wen Rao lowered her eyes to look at the brightly colored tea, and listened to her again: "Sister, don't worry, I'm not Sister Ling." โ
Wen Rao was slightly startled, and there was a hint of consideration in her eyes when she looked at them.
It seems that they have touched the bottom of themselves.
"Sister, my hands are sore." Liang Xuan was slightly coquettish.
"I'm sorry, I'm not thirsty." Wen Rao retracted her gaze, not planning to give her face.
Liang Xuan's face turned pale when she heard this, and she raised her head and drank it all.
"Liangyuan is really cowardly." Her tone was slightly dismissive.
"Since it's okay, forgive me for missing me." Wen Rao was impatient, turned around, and was stopped.
"Wen Liangyuan, you are so rude, today I will give you the opportunity to apologize to me, you don't want to cherish it." Behind him, Wan Guiji said slowly.
"Silky?" Wen Rao called out to the door when she heard this, and found that there was no movement outside.
"Wen Liangyuan, I saluted this cup of tea to Sister Guiji, and the old things were written off, and Sister Guiji won't care about you." Liang Xuan didn't raise her head, poured another cup of tea on the table, Wan Guiji sneered, and held a shelf.
Wen Rao took two steps back, and suddenly her leg bent in pain, her body was already sore, and she immediately fell to her knees and pounced forward weakly.
She looked up groggily and saw a palace maid slowly retract her movements, as if nothing had happened.
"Hahahaha, Wen Liangyuan, this is called salutation, do you understand?" A hint of viciousness flashed in Liang Xuan's eyes.
Wen Rao stroked her right knee and knelt on the ground, the hem of her skirt stained with ash.
"Wen Rao, you dare to be so pampered and arrogant without anything, do you think this Guiji will make people like you feel better?"
There are several concubines in the palace, but Wen Rao is the one who wants to provoke and bully the most.
In terms of weight, she is the queen of the previous dynasty, and it is more refreshing to bully, in terms of background, this idiot has cut off her own life and infighting with the Wen family, and she has no backing at all, not to mention the emperor's favor, she can't even compare to Wen Ru's finger.
Such a person, if she dies, there may not be anyone to stand up for her, so why teach her a lesson?
"Wen Rao, I am a five-grade noble concubine, Xuan'er is the daughter of the heroic marquis, you collided with me and bullied Liang Xuan, if you don't teach you a lesson, won't you even pay attention to the emperor in the future?" Wan Guiji hooked her pink lips and smiled evilly.
Wen Rao's face was pale, even more weak, and she seemed to tremble a little when she heard the words, and her pitiful little appearance couldn't wait to make people โกโก fiercely.
Wan Guiji watched her struggle to get up on the floor, walked to the table, reached out and picked up the cup of tea and walked towards her.
"Wan Guiji, everything in the past is the concubine's fault, and the concubine also asks Guiji to forgive, and it will be our new beginning in the future." She lowered her eyes, her eyelashes trembled, and she raised her hand.
Wan Guiji raised her hand to take it, pursed her lips and smiled, and then poured the water on Wen Rao, "You were lying on the ground just now, let's wash it up and serve me tea, and pour another cup." She commanded.
Wen Rao trembled, lifted the kettle filled with hot water, and the cup was in Wan Guiji's hand, she just looked at Wen Rao like that, contemptuous and provocative.
She picked up the cup, and suddenly her hand shook, and with a snap, the tea spilled on Wan Guiji's face.
I only heard Wen Rao say expressionlessly: "You are naturally not my sister, but I am still me." The concubine will only serve tea in this way, and please accept it with a smile.
The politeness of the past should also be forgotten by Wan Guiji, from today on, this is our correct way to get along. โ
She lifted the teapot again with her left hand and poured water from the top of Yang Yuwan's head, and the fragrance of tea overflowed.
If Wan Guiji, who had never been offended, couldn't react for a while, then the next pot of hot tea was hot and she jumped to the side screaming like a frightened hen, crying incessantly.
The palace people rushed up and held Wan Guiji.
"Wen Rao, you are so bold!" Liang Xuan didn't immediately ask someone to call the imperial doctor, but stepped forward and slapped her while Wen Rao was unexpected, "You are as shameless as your mother!" โ
Wen Rao was hit in the wrong head and dizzy, but Liang Xuan's words were clearer than the other, and they came into her ears.
"Do you know who I am? The daughter of the Liang family, the founder of the country!
Yun Ji, that, why do you think her appearance is ruined? She seduced my father by myself when I went to the dungeon and printed the obscene words on her face with a soldering iron, when I was only eight years old. โ
Wen Rao's pupils shrank suddenly.
"I thought that without the blessing of that, you would die, who knew that you would live to this day, I didn't want to come, but she said it was you, and I came, Yun Ji's good daughter."
Liang Xuan said fiercely.
"You don't have anything, you don't deserve to be in this position. I was able to kill your mother when I was eight years old, and now it is even easier to deal with you, as long as I move my fingers, you should go to Huangquan Road and go to hell. โ
Wen Rao didn't know Liang Xuan.
I only know that one day, after my mother came back from recuperation, she had a shameful mark on her face.
Although it wasn't the reason for her death, it was an invisible hand that strangled Yun Ji's neck together, making her die faster.
"Xuan'er save me!" Behind her, Wan Guiji was screaming.
Liang Xuan just tugged at the corners of her mouth and ignored it, and raised her hand to Wen Rao again.
Wen Rao moved violently and grabbed her wrist.
"What? Do you think you can fight against the Liang Clan? Liang Xuan smiled, but the next moment she couldn't laugh.
"Finally got me one." Wen Rao raised the corners of her lips, and her weak face suddenly shattered, revealing another face, she was not a rabbit, but a giant python that could swallow the whole person with her mouth open.
She grabbed Liang Xuan's arm and lifted it hard, slammed it heavily on the table, a white light flashed, and in the next moment, Liang Xuan let out a scream that was even more poignant than Wan Guiji.
If the previous shrew fought, everyone was not surprised, admired Wen Rao's courage and dared to resist. But this scene frightened all the young palace people.
The first to react tore open his voice and screamed: "Killed!" โ
Liang Xuan knelt in front of Wen Rao and couldn't move, and her other hand was nailed deep into the crack of the table by a fruit knife.
"You're the last one in my plan, but I didn't expect to be the first one to jump out, it's really easy for me to find." Wen Rao's voice was so cold that it was chilling.
Liang Xuan was so painful that she couldn't hear it, it was her right hand, her right hand that she wrote and painted with pride.
