Chapter 14: Selection for the Palace (1)
Chu Boxuan was very excited, but I listened very indifferently. I stood silently looking at his back, listening to him continue to say word by word.
"Actually, both my father and mother knew that the fire had destroyed everything, so how could anyone survive? Probably providence has made you appear in front of us, and it has also rekindled their hope. I don't care who you are, from now on, if you dare to hurt them in the slightest, I will never let you go! ”
"Oh? So how are you going not to let me go? Kill me? It's a pity, I'm afraid you're going to fail in this calculation. I teased him, but my voice became colder and colder: "Because, I'm dead." ”
As soon as I finished speaking, he jumped up from the ground and looked back at me. I shrugged at him, then stepped closer, and when I was less than an inch away from him, I put his hand on the artery in my left hand and asked, "Do you have a pulse here?" ”
He paused for a moment, and his pupils suddenly dilated.
"It's... You...! He was so stunned that he couldn't speak, but I brushed his hand away and said calmly: "Your guesses are all right, I am indeed not the daughter of this family, but since I borrowed this body, I will naturally cherish it." ”
"Why are you so calm with me, aren't you afraid that I will tell my father?"
I glanced at him, the corners of my mouth curled slightly, turned around and walked towards the darkness not far away, and said, "If I'm really afraid of you, it's not me!" My name is Chu Xinyuan, remember! ”
By the time I had finished the whole sentence, I had already walked out of the garden. I knew it would be a big shock to him today, and I don't know why I was so honest tonight, maybe because I was about to leave here.
Time is an endless river for me, and the day of the draft has come by a fast pace. When I sat in the sedan chair and watched the Chu Mansion say goodbye to me one by one, my emotions couldn't help but fluctuate.
The sedan chair was very bumpy, and it was a little dazzling. I slightly opened the corner of the sedan curtain, Han Xiao and Ye Yao slowly followed on the left and right sides of the sedan chair, I looked at the envious looks on the faces of the onlookers on the street, and sighed helplessly.
Everyone in the world only says that the princess is good, but who can understand the bitterness and tears that are as deep as the sea when you enter the harem? I lowered the sedan curtain, listened to the noise in my ears, and stared blankly at the door curtain that was shaking with the footsteps of the sedan chair driver.
According to the usual practice, the new show girl can't bring a maid, I asked Han Xiao and Ye Yao to go back first and wait for the news, and I walked into the palace gate alone with the crowd of Xianxiu.
This time, there were twenty women who were selected to join the palace with me, and their status was either rich or noble, and their clothes were all priceless, and everyone's faces were filled with festive smiles.
I stood at the end of the line, watching them look excited because they got the sign, and all the emotions were only sneering.
When the little eunuch handed the same jade plate to me, I didn't catch any of them, and the jade plate fell to the ground with a snap, shattering into countless jade particles, and everyone's eyes were focused on me one by one.
I swept around with my eyes, and calmly smiled apologetically at the eunuch, who also seemed to have a stomach full of anger, snorted coldly at me, and said angrily: "You have such a big temper before you become a master, if you become a master, you still have it?" After saying that, he glared at me fiercely again before taking another piece from the side.
There were already people around me who couldn't help but start sighing, I filtered out the voices I didn't want to hear, took the small jade card he handed over again with both hands, and said softly: "Thank you!" ”
