Chapter Eighty-Eight: An Unexpected Arrival

In the prison, Mei Wu leaned peacefully against the corner of the wall, sitting on the straw with his knees crossed, which Ruo'er had laid out in advance.

In the past, Ruo'er would only think about her, never thought about herself, but now when Ruo'er left her world, she found that the lonely emptiness made her think of Ruo'er's death all the time, and the red on her body seemed to put her in the magma, and the burning pain swept through her heart.

A faint frown, the indifferent color between her eyebrows has long been gone, she only has hatred now, they killed Ruo'er, an innocent and kind girl, and just left, she couldn't convince herself to be tolerant of them, but what could she do?

The sky was slightly bright, and there was only one open-air window in the prison, which was very small, so small that it was good enough to only get into one person, and Mai Wu felt the intake of light again, and looked up at it, there was very little sunlight shining through the window, and the perennial darkness in the prison had accumulated a lot of bad luck, and it was inevitably unpleasant.

It seems that a day has passed, Mai Mai thought to herself, brushing the dust refracted in front of her eyes with her sleeve.

Slowly, only to hear a sound of footsteps slowly came, gradually walking towards this side, Mei Wu couldn't help but think of yesterday's everything, unconsciously retreated towards the corner of the wall, accidentally, touched the wound on the fingers, couldn't help but shrink his hand violently, although the wound had been bandaged yesterday with the help of Bi Lian, but now the touch and the air here is hazy, so that the wound is inflamed again, the white gauze bandaged has been vaguely red, Mei Wu looked down at his hands, was wrapped tightly, Ten fingers as thick as a branch.

The person who came slowly walked to the prison of the dance and stood still, wearing a fiery red gauze skirt, exquisite and transparent facial features, the first thing that caught the eye of the dance was the pair of golden-red boots, which were embroidered with a beautiful picture of a hundred flowers, lifelike, as if it were real.

She couldn't help frowning, what is this person doing here now, they don't have much to do with each other, and her tone can't help but be cold: "I don't know why Concubine Yu Niangniang came here to see me at this moment?" ”

Yes, the person who came was Concubine Yu, the jealous Concubine Yu, I saw her looking at the dance with charming eyes, her eyes were full of disdain, ridicule, and some complicated and enjoyable meanings.

She said: "My sister came today to see my sister, I didn't expect to see her in a few days, but the queen mother has such a respectful face, it's really a pity, how can such a beautiful face have such ugly scars?" As he spoke, he seemed to realize something, and changed his words: "No, no, no, now that you are no longer the queen, I should call you by your name." I couldn't help but raise my hand, and the red handkerchief covered the smile on my lips: "Hehehe...... Look at me, alas! I forgot that the queen was deposed, didn't I? ”

When Mai Wu saw her staring at herself, as if she was aware of the scar on her face, she reached out in a panic to cover the wound on her face, but she didn't know but forgot the wound on her hand.

Seeing this, Concubine Yu couldn't help but feel a pity: "Look, a pair of hands has become like this, and her good face has become so disgusting, alas! Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager was also really scared. ”

Mei Wu lowered her head indifferently, ignoring Concubine Yu's deliberate taunt.

She can be ignored, this completely angered Concubine Yu's competitiveness, seeing that the palace people behind her are present, how can she be looked down upon by a sinner, Concubine Yu feigned anger: "Xiahou Meiwu, you'd better remember what your identity is now, I think I don't need me to remind you, when you see this palace, you dare not kneel, it seems that this palace wants to give you a look, you know your identity." ”

Mei Wu raised his eyes: "My identity is not bothering Niang Niang to remind me, Xiahou Mei Wu is a guilty body, and it is also a repeat offense, the Empress Dowager said, if I have a mistaken ......" Mei Wu deliberately prolonged his tone: "I don't need to say the consequences, I think Niangniang also knows that Niangniang's identity is noble, I think it's better to leave here, so as not to dirty Niangniang's nobility." ”

Concubine Yu's face turned red and white when she was said by the dance, her hands couldn't help clenching, and the silk handkerchief in her hand was a little wrinkled by her, which showed that her face was really ugly, and she knew that she was angry.

"Okay, you Xiahou dance, you dare to use the queen mother to press the palace, it can be seen that you don't take the palace in your eyes at all, if you don't give you some color today, the palace is afraid that you won't succeed."

Concubine Yu said this and said loudly: "Jailer, open the prison door." ”

The jailer who had been standing on the side lowered his head tremblingly, heard that he was called, and hurriedly came to Concubine Yu's side, and heard Concubine Yu ask her to open the prison door, without thinking, she knew what she was going to do? It's just that yesterday I saw Mei Wu being pushed into the prison with scars, and now he is going to be tortured by this woman again, although these guards are inconspicuous masters, and they have no status, and the masters above don't dare to disobey what they do, but as a human being, they still have a conscience, and the jailer is a little embarrassed.

Just as he hesitated, Concubine Yu was dissatisfied: "What? Can't you hear what Hongu is saying? Or are you deaf. Hurry up and open the prison door for this palace, otherwise you will blame this palace for being unkind to you. ”

Concubine Yu's face was arrogant, and the jailer had no choice but to speak: "Back to Niangniang's words, the Empress Dowager ordered yesterday that if she makes a mistake, the little ones will have to pay for their lives......" The jailer said with some trepidation: "The Empress Dowager also ordered the little ones, if the ladies of the palaces came here, they would not contact her." The little ones can't do it, so you'd better bypass the little ones! ”

Concubine Yu knew what was going on, her tone couldn't help but restrain a lot, and she said politely: "If you don't say it, if the palace doesn't say it, who will know?" Glancing at the maid beside her, she nodded knowingly, took out some broken silver from her cuff, and stuffed it into the jailer's hand.

The jailer weighed the silver in his hand, looked down, and suddenly his eyes lit up, where is this silver, it is clearly broken gold, one by one, flashing with such dazzling light, he has never seen such gold in his life, and his heart can't help but feel a little loose.

Half a sound, a little hesitant, desire finally covered the conscience, only to see him compliment: "Then Niangniang, hurry up, the little one is guarding outside the door." ”

Concubine Yu nodded and didn't speak, the jailer stepped forward, took out the key from her waist bag, inserted it into the crack, and the cell door opened in response.

After the jailer retreated, Concubine Yu stepped into the cell, and with a smell of decay coming to her nose, she couldn't help frowning, and stretched out her hand to cover the tip of her nose: "This is also a place for people?" It's dirty. Looking at the surrounding straw and all the inconspicuous potholes, Concubine Yu couldn't help but feel a little refreshed when she thought of Mei Wu being locked up here.

This is already a great punishment for a woman like Xiahou Meiwu, who is locked up here, but ......

Concubine Yu suddenly looked at Mei Wu leaning against the corner with sharp eyes, she dared to assassinate the emperor, she really damned.

Thinking of Si Teng Feng, who is still lying unconscious on the bed, and those attachments to Xiahou Meiwu in the past, the jealousy in Concubine Yu's heart can't help but occupy her thoughts.

Mei Wu didn't look at her, but curled up in the corner alone, so that the hair covered the scar on her cheek, so that they could not see it clearly, as if they had seen through it.

Concubine Yu stepped forward and stood in front of Mei Wu: "Kneel down for this palace." ”

Ignoring it, as if she hadn't heard it, she was like living in her own world, even if she didn't look at her or reply to her.

Concubine Yu turned around suddenly and looked at the maids behind her, "A few of you, press her down for the palace, the palace won't believe it, she won't kneel." ”

Hearing this, the maids stepped forward, and the two grabbed Mai Mai's arm on one side, and Mai Mai did not resist, she knew that she was not their opponent at all at the moment, and it was useless to pretend to resist.

When the maids saw that it was easy to catch Mei Wu, they couldn't help frowning and looked at Concubine Yu.

"Push her to her knees."

"Yes" Concubine Yu gave the order, and Mei Wu was pressed to kneel on the ground, and she was kicked again, and her legs fell to her knees weakly.

It can be seen that these maids are usually bullies.

Concubine Yu came to the front of the dance, stretched out her fingertips to provoke the jaw of the dance, when the dark wound was completely exposed, Concubine Yu raised her head and laughed: "Hahaha, I didn't expect that the first beauty in Nanxia has now become the first ugly girl in Nanxia, it's really funny." ”

She said that she didn't care about these dances at all, and she didn't have much feeling about her appearance, on the contrary, she even felt that if she didn't have this appearance, maybe her life would be completely different.

Maybe she can leave Xiahou's house, leave the palace, leave everything that bothered her, and leave with Ruo'er.

I'm afraid that when I thought of Ruo'er, I danced unconsciously, and tears flowed out.

Seeing this, Concubine Yu thought that she had stabbed her self-esteem, and couldn't help but sneer: "Crying? For you, who grew up under the halo of stars and moons, there is such a day, which is really unexpected, right? ”

Fiercely, a slap was slammed on Mei Wu's face, only to hear a snap.

Mei Wu's face was beaten to the side, the wound on her cheek came with a hot pain, and she felt bloodshot from the corner of her lips, Mei Wu pursed her lips and remained silent, still keeping her head down.

Concubine Yu was very unhappy with the silence of the dance, and a thought suddenly flashed through her mind, and a sinister smile slowly emerged.

She said, "Don't you speak?" In that case, Hongu will never have to say anything! ”

Saying this, Mai Wu looked up at her: "What are you going to do?" ”

She had a sense of foreboding, something this woman would definitely do.

"Do what?" Concubine Yu looked at Mei Wu, the light in her eyes couldn't help but pour, she turned to look at the personal maid behind her: "Go and get some dumb medicine for the palace." ”

When the maid heard this, she looked at Concubine Yu in fear: "Niangniang......"

"Go." Concubine Yu's voice was cold, so frightened that the maid couldn't help but tremble, and hurriedly ran out.

But at this moment, an unexpected person appeared, the Queen Mother Ning Qing, the Queen Mother who rarely stepped out of the dormitory.

When the maid ran out of the door, she bumped into Ning Qing.

Bilian on the side shouted: "Presumptuous." ”

The maid looked up and saw that it was Ning Qing, her face instantly turned pale with fright, her legs trembled, and she knelt on the ground with a plop, "The woman is just seeing the Queen Mother." ”

Even the voice had a vibrato.
