Chapter 5: Uninvited Guests
In his sleep, shouting and howling trampled like an iron horse on the battlefield!
I don't know how long I slept, Min Qingrou suddenly woke up from her dream, and before she had time to wipe the cold sweat off her forehead, she was attracted by the noise at the door.
"Mrs. Mei, my mother is unwell and is resting, please come back another day!"
It was a coincidence with a hint of pleading.
"Nonsense! The princess clearly said that Concubine Rou had woken up, and there was no big problem, so what is the reason for hiding from people like this?" A delicate voice sounded, if it weren't for the unconcealable arrogance in the tone, this voice would still be very pleasant.
"That's right, since Concubine Rou has woken up, she should come out to see us, don't you look down on our sisters if you push back like this?"
Another shrill voice sounded with a bit of meanness.
"Two ladies, my mother-in-law is really unwell, she drank the medicine, and she just fell asleep!
"Dog minion, get out of here!"
Chance's grievances don't seem to have any effect. Because immediately afterward, the door was kicked open with great force. With a bang, the door panel hit the door frame and bounced back.
Two women in brocade costumes burst in, followed by two high-spirited maids, and an anxious look on their faces.
After seeing Min Qingrou sitting at the table drinking tea, the petite Mrs. Luomei glared coldly at Yuan Qiao.
"Dead girl, didn't you say that your mother was unwell and resting? Look at her red face, where does she look sick?
"This, this ......" Yuan Qiao looked at Min Qingrou, who was sitting quietly at the table drinking tea, and was speechless for a while. She didn't expect her master to wake up so quickly, and for some reason, her originally pale face turned flushed.
"You are making a lot of noise outside the door, even if I want to sleep, will I still sleep?" Min Qingrouwu put down the teacup, glanced at the two of them coldly, and then turned to Yuan Qiao and said: "Yuan Qiao, who are these two? Why are you making a lot of noise at my door?"
"Who are we......?" Sister Liu, did you hear that, she actually asked who we we......re? I'm laughing at it!"
The petite Madame Luomei held a champa to cover her smile exaggeratedly, as if she had seen something funny.
"Master, these two are the prince's concubines, Mrs. Xueliu and Mrs. Luomei. Yuan Qiao hurriedly stepped forward to introduce Min Qingrou.
"Yo! you can survive if you fall into the mirror pond, Concubine Rou is really lucky!"
"Luck? I think it's Concubine Rou's deep skill in attracting bees and butterflies, and she can actually let Commander Wei come to the rescue!
The tall Xue Liu exit was a strange taunt of yin and yang, and he didn't save any face for Min Qingrou at all. And Luomei sang one by one, without taking Min Qingrou in her eyes at all.
Seeing that these two people were so unscrupulous in their words to bully their masters, Yuan Qiao hurriedly stepped forward to block in front of Min Qingrou and said: "The two ladies are coming, the slave and maid are not welcome, and I ask the two ladies to forgive their sins! It's just that my master is unwell, I'm afraid the hospitality will not be good! The two ladies are not ......."
"Get out of here!"
Xue Liu made a look, and the two maids beside her who were nostrils facing the sky immediately stepped forward to pull Yuan Qiao aside, and Min Qingrou's weak face was immediately displayed in front of them.
A trace of jealousy immediately rose on Xue Liu's face, hum! This lowly woman, why does she have such a beautiful appearance? Every time she sees her pitiful appearance, she can't wait to step forward and tear her face apart!
"Isn't it unwell, isn't it just that you fell into the mirror pond and soaked in water, are you so weak?" Luo Mei looked at Min Qingrou and snorted coldly with disdain.
"What are you pretending to be? It's okay to act in front of the princess, you might as well save in front of us! Pretend to have amnesia and want to win the sympathy of the prince, Concubine Rou's plan is good!"
Lady Xueliu swept Min Qingrou's beautiful face with disdain, and her words were even more vicious.
"I don't understand what you're talking about! Who wants sympathy? I fell into the water and lost my memory, and I don't remember anymore!"
Min Qingrou looked at these two uninvited guests and said with a cold expression.
"Amnesia, who are you blind? If you want to use this method to compete for favor, it's really a laugh to death!" Luo Mei sneered.
"yes, don't pretend! It won't look like it anymore! You better be honest! What is the purpose of pretending to have amnesia? Don't you have some ulterior secrets, right?"
Snow willow's sharp voice is like a fingernail cutting through glass, which makes people can't help but get goosebumps.
Seeing that Luomei Xueliu was about to have no target, Yuan Qiao tried his best to break free from the clamps of the two maids, stepped forward and grabbed Xueliu's arm and begged: "Mrs. Liu, my mother has indeed lost her memory! I have been having a headache since I woke up, please raise my noble hands and don't stimulate her anymore!"
"Smack!"
A loud slap hit the unprepared Yuan Qiao in the face, and Yuan Qiao almost hit the bedpost.
"What kind of identity are you, and you dare to teach us a lesson?"
It was Mrs. Xueliu who beat people, and I saw her withdraw her hand with contempt, as if she was already familiar with slapping people.
"By coincidence!"
A trace of anger flashed in Min Qingrou's eyes, and she quickly got up to help Yuan Qiao, and said with concern: "How are you?"
"The slave is fine. Yuan Qiao replied, and then knelt down in front of Xueliu Luomei, and kowtowed again and again: "The two ladies are angry! The slave and maid should die! The slave and maid are guilty!"
"Get out of here! I'm too lazy to bother with you!" Xue Liu glanced at Yuan Qiao condescendingly, turned to face Min Qingrou, and said with disdain: "Is this how Concubine Rou taught slaves and maids?
Seeing this, even if Min Qingrou didn't know who these two women were, she clearly knew that these two concubines of King Qi were here to find fault and fall into the well!
In her previous life, she would have tolerated them with kindness, but after dying once, she finally understood that some things and some people cannot be tolerated, otherwise, sooner or later they will become disasters!
Thinking of this, she straightened up and said awe-inspiringly: "Mrs. Liu's words are wrong! It was only because I was unwell that I reminded the two of them a little, what is the crime of being loyal to the master? Besides, if you want to say that the following crimes, since the two are the concubines of the prince, you should know that you should treat me as a concubine with courtesy! How can you say that I am also the concubine that the prince is marrying, what are you? If you enter my bedroom without knocking on the door, you are still shouting here and beating my maidservant! I would like to ask, where did you two put the rules of the palace in this way, and where did you put the king of Qi? If you two don't take me seriously, don't you even take the prince seriously?"
In the face of Min Qingrou's unrelenting counterattack, everyone present was stunned!
Is this the cowardly concubine in the past? The cowardly woman who was scolded in the past but could only shrink up and cry when she was scolded was bloody, now dares to refute them bluntly?
What's going on? Could it be that a drowning has drowned her brain?
"You, you don't talk nonsense, blood spews people!"
After a long time, Luomei was the first to react, and hurriedly defended loudly.
"I'm spewing blood? The facts are in front of me! I'm resting, you two broke in for no reason and didn't even make a sound, not only me and my maid saw it, but the maid you left outside the door and my subordinates of Poria Xuan must have heard it clearly! How do the two ladies want to justify? Take 10,000 steps back, even if my status is humble, it was because the paddock draft was entered by the emperor's will to enter the Qi Palace, and you two little concubines are disrespectful to the prince and the emperor! Can you two afford such charges?"
As soon as these words came out, Luomei's face was almost green!
When did this woman become so eloquent? When did this disrespectful hat button down and cost her life?
"You, you! You spew blood! You don't want to slander us!"
Xue Liu's face turned pale with anger, and her finger pointed at Min Qing and trembled. This slut, who has been trampled under her feet, now has the courage to scold her?
"Slandering you, all the minions in the courtyard can testify! I must still have the footprints of your embroidered shoes on the door of my bedroom, why, does Madame Liu want more evidence?"
Min Qingrou's beautiful eyes were unusually calm, and she had no fear in the face of Xue Liu Luomei's arrogance, which made the jaws of Yuan Qiao on the side fall to the ground!
When did her master become so powerful?
"Don't you want to leave? Don't you want me to invite the prince over and judge the right and wrong?"
Min Qingrou glanced coldly at Xue Liu Luomei and the two, and sat back on the side of the bed.
"Hmph, the young fox is a fake tiger! If my guess is correct, you are still a virgin, right? A concubine who has never even inherited a favor, if you can invite the prince, I will write the word Luomei upside down!"
Mrs. Luomei sneered and looked sarcastically at Min Qingrou, who was sitting at the front of the bed. Somehow, she suddenly felt that Min Qingrou had changed a lot, and even her current sitting posture was very different from before.
In the past, she couldn't wait to shrink herself into the hole, always looking submissive, but today, she just sat on the edge of the bed so casually, and even with a pale and sick face without fat powder, there was still a sense of nobility revealed.
However, how could it be? She was dazzled, right? This lowly concubine couldn't have that kind of innate temperament!
"Mrs. May, you, don't go too far!"
Seeing that Luomei actually announced that Min Qingrou was still complete with such fanfare, the fate on the side couldn't help but stand up to defend her master.
"Dog minion, that slap just now didn't make you clear, did it!" Xue Liu raised her eyebrows, raised her palm and was about to hit the left side of Yuanqiao's face again.
And this slap is even more ferocious, as if he wants to make up for all the losses he suffered from Min Qingrou just now.
Min Qingrou's eyes lit up and he was about to have a seizure, when he suddenly heard a low cheer that was both familiar and unfamiliar.
"Stop!"
Then a tall figure walked into the bedroom, it was none other than Situ Yue, the king of Qi!
"King, lord!"
When Luomei Xueliu looked back and saw this person, her face turned white with fright, and she knelt in front of this person in a hurry.
Lord Wang, Min Qingrou raised her head and saw a handsome and extraordinary face at a glance, but this face was covered with extreme cold, which made people shudder at a glance.
Situ Yue?
Min Qingrou looked at him stunned, but a vague figure suddenly appeared in her mind. The figure and the person in front of him slowly overlapped, the difference was only that the corner of the person's mouth always had a shallow and mellow smile on the corner of his mouth in his memory, but the person in front of him was like an ice sculpture coming out of the 10,000-year-old ice cave.
Why? The person in front of her is Situ Yue? Why is he different from what she remembers? Could it be that a catastrophe has confused her memory?
