Chapter 44:
Lingyu's brows furrowed, and her head hurt slightly.
She reached out and rubbed her temples, and was relieved to find that she was not poisoned or injured.
Lingyu got up from the bed, looked around, and saw that there was nothing but her clothes.
She glanced at the bracelet on her wrist, then walked over to the dresser, picked up the mirror and looked at her face.
The woman in the mirror has delicate and beautiful facial features, and her skin can be broken by blowing.
Lingyu touched her face a little strangely, and always felt that something seemed to be wrong.
She remembered that she had been drunk last night and was rescued by a black-robed young man, who was very impressed by his bewitching appearance and evil temperament, but the black-robed boy later disappeared.
Could it all be a dream?
Lingyu thought about it and decided to go out for a walk.
"Knock knock."
There was a knock on the door of the room, and a gorgeously dressed and good-looking maid walked in, saluting Lingyu and saying, "Lingyu girl, are you awake?" The slave has brought you a meal! β
Lingyu nodded, and then sat down at the table.
The maid stepped forward with the dishes, stood aside respectfully, and said, "This is the tonic and porridge specially cooked by the kitchen for the Lingyu girl, Lingyu girl should eat it while it is hot, if it is cold, it will not taste good!" β
Hearing this, Lingyu nodded, picked up the bowl and took two sips.
She noticed that the maid's gaze had been on her, and it made her feel a little strange.
"What's wrong? Is there something going on? Lingyu asked.
The maid hurriedly shook her head: "No, it's okay." β
Lingyu looked at her and said, "You seem to be looking at me a little weird today. β
"Where?" The maid hurriedly denied it, "The slave maid was a little surprised when she saw the girl's beauty." β
Hearing this, Lingyu hooked her lips and smiled, and said, "I see, then you go out first, and I'll call you later." β
"Yes."
The maid blessed herself, then turned and withdrew.
After the maid left, the corners of Lingyu's mouth hooked up a meaningful smile.
Want to calculate her? She wanted to see what this group of people were capable of.
Lingyu put down her chopsticks and looked at the dazzling array of food on the table, feeling a little irritable.
Ever since she woke up and was thrown into the valley by the man, she felt like she was surrounded by mysteries, and she couldn't find a clue.
Lingyu sighed, then got up and walked towards the door.
Walking out the door, Lingyu looked at the moon hanging in the sky, and suddenly remembered what the man said to her that day, "I said, you can't escape." β
Could that man really be ......
Lingyu shook her head, shaking off the thoughts that shouldn't have existed in her mind.
She had now become the master of this body, and that person could not be her master.
She should figure out how to get out of here now, and besides, she still wants to find the man and ask what happened.
Lingyu thought about it for a long time, but couldn't think of a result.
She was about to return to the house when she saw a guard in the distance hurrying up and stopping in front of her.
The guard gasped and looked a little embarrassed.
"What's the matter?"
"The eldest princess sent someone to herald, saying that she was going to take the girl to the palace banquet!"
When Lingyu heard this, her eyes narrowed, and a trace of impatience crossed her eyes.
The royal family of this world, as expected, is the same as the royal family of that world, they are all self-righteous guys.
Now that she's seriously injured and has magical powers, these people still want to use her and control her? It's ridiculous!
If you want to control her, you have to see if they have the ability!
Lingyu sneered, then turned around and went back to the room, changed into a dress, and walked out of the room.
After Lingyu left, the guard wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
After Lingyu left the inn, she met many vendors along the way, all of whom were trading all kinds of treasures.
Lingyu wasn't interested in those things, she wandered aimlessly.
However, she saw a delicate veil on the stall selling rouge gouache on the street, and her eyes were straight, so she couldn't help but walk over.
"Miss, this is a good rouge gouache, and the price is very expensive!" Xiao Er hurriedly stepped forward and introduced, "Girl, how many do you want to buy?" β
Lingyu looked at the veil, and a hint of love flashed in her eyes, but it was quickly concealed.
She shook her head and refused, "No need. β
Seeing this, Xiao Er was no longer reluctant and continued to work on other businesses.
Lingyu walked out of the rouge shop and walked along the street.
The shops on both sides of the street are bustling with a wide variety of goods.
Her eyes scanned the surroundings, hoping to find any trace of the black-robed boy.
She was now full of doubts about the man.
Why did that man suddenly appear and save her, and even lead her here.
Lingyu frowned.
The man saved her and made her what she is now, could it be because of something wrong with her blood?
At this moment, there was a noise ahead, accompanied by the sharp cry of a woman.
Lingyu followed the prestige, and saw a young woman in a gorgeous brocade dress kneeling on the ground, crying: "Please, my own brother is dead, and I don't want to live anymore......"
Lingyu looked at the woman, and always felt that this woman was a little familiar.
She was about to step forward to ask, when she saw the man step forward, kicked the woman hard, and scolded sharply: "Slut, I think you still die of this heart, your brother is to blame!" If you know each other, go back to your hometown quickly, and don't provoke this king again! β
"My brother he'...... He is to save me, so he ......" the woman cried pear blossoms with rain, "If you don't dislike it, take me as a concubine!" I do all the dirty work! Please! β
"Humph! Dirty work? The man sneered, "Do you think this king is so easy to serve?" Your brother's life is left to the king's fiancΓ©e, and no one wants to snatch it! β
Lord Wang, things are getting more and more interesting.
"I ...... I know my brother is sorry for you, but will you please let me go? Whatever you let me do, I'm willing! As long as you can let me go! β
"Slut! What do you think you are? is still trying to be the king's side concubine, it's really a pipe dream! Your brother is dead, he deserves it! me off, and never appear before this king!" The man gave the woman a disgusted look, then stretched out his hand to the carriage.
When the woman heard this, anger and resentment suddenly welled up in her eyes, but in the end she lowered her head, climbed into the carriage and left.
When the man saw the woman leave, he turned to look at the carriage with an eerie expression.
......
The palace banquet was set up in a palatial mansion, and the surrounding guards were very tight, but anyone who approached the mansion would be stopped and carefully examined.
Lingyu followed behind the guards and walked into the mansion.
As soon as she reached the door of the mansion, she saw a woman dressed in red walking out, tall and slender, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, looking weak and moving.
It was the woman who led her to the pavilion that day in the street. She and Situ Hao teamed up to force her to take the inexplicable pill, and now she is 'invited' to this inexplicable palace banquet for what the hell is going to do......
"Slaves and maids participate in His Royal Highness the Prince, the county lord, the county lord." When the guards saw the woman appear, they saluted.
"Hmm." The woman in red replied lightly, then looked at Lingyu and said softly, "County Lord, please come with me." β
Lingyu glanced at the woman in red, then nodded and followed her into the mansion.
Along the way, the scenery of Fuzhong is very beautiful, gardens, pavilions, lakes, rockeries, fountains...... It's beautiful, like a fairyland.
Lingyu followed the woman in red through the long corridor and stood in front of an antique attic.
"County Lord, this is it."
Lingyu looked up at the attic and found that the attic was extremely luxuriously arranged around it, just like a palace.
"County Lord, this is the boudoir of the County Lord in the future."
"Oh." Princess? Hearing this called Lingyu, he was slightly surprised in his heart, but his face was not obvious, and he quietly raised his legs and stepped into the attic.
Oh, acting, who doesn't know.
The decoration in the attic is very luxurious, every item is made of pearl agate, and even on the windowsill, there are several pots of delicate roses.
Lingyu looked around and found that there was no one else except her.
Where is this? How did she get here?
Lingyu thought as she stepped forward and pushed open a wooden door, the layout inside was exactly the same as what she had seen before, except with a more extravagant atmosphere.
The furnishings in the house are very simple, but each piece of furnishings is very expensive.
This room seems to be specially prepared for a certain nobleman, and at this moment, the nobleman in the room is sitting at the table drinking tea, drinking tea leisurely and comfortably.
"See Your Highness." Lingyu slowly stepped forward and saluted the man.
"Hmm." The man nodded and put down the teaglass, "The county lord has figured it out?" β
Lingyu looked at the man in front of him, and sighed in his heart, he was really a very handsome man, his facial features were perfect like a knife and an axe, he was wearing a purple gold dragon pattern brocade robe, a silver fox fur fur was fashionable, and a dark green jade pendant hung around his waist. His face was as angular as a knife, his deep eye sockets burned like two flames, and his thin lips were pursed and closed, exuding seductive charm.
Lingyu stared at him for a moment, and a touch of exclamation appeared in his eyes, "This man is really beautiful!" β
The admiration in her heart was palpable.
But soon, Lingyu reined in her thoughts.
This man seems to be gentle, but his eyes have a dangerous aura.
It's better not to provoke such a person, otherwise, it is easy to lose your life.
"County Lord, you don't have to be afraid of me, I won't hurt you, just need you to cooperate with me to do one thing."
Hearing this, Lingyu raised her eyes and looked at the man in front of her, only to see that he had an attitude of being high up and overlooking all living beings, as if she was just an ant, and she could be pinched to death at any time!
Lingyu frowned, her tone a little impatient.
"What's the matter?"
The corners of the man's mouth were hooked, revealing a hint of eerie arc.
