After Shen Ruoyi finished the beating, she felt like she was going crazy again. She stepped forward and blew Shen Ruochen's face carefully, "I'm sorry, it hurts. Why don't you hit me! Hit me back!"
"Sister..." Shen Ruochen shook his head.
"Then I'll beat myself, I'll beat myself!" Shen Ruoyi really beat herself. In that way, she still looked like a legitimate daughter at home.
Guizhi hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down to beg Shen Ruochen, "Fifth Miss, our master is stimulated. Don't be as knowledgeable as her. If you are angry, just hit me!"
"Get up," Shen Ruochen felt a little uncomfortable, "We are all like this, stop torturing yourself, come on, make a charcoal fire, and I will help you make a quilt for your sister."
"Miss Fifth, you are such a kind-hearted person!"
"Hey, I'll let my sister have a good sleep. Maybe she'll be fine tomorrow."
As the days passed, the small kitchen in Chu Xiugong had ceased fire long ago, and even the cook was called away. The food delivered was getting worse day by day, not only cold but also filled with leftovers.
That's all, the food delivered directly today is sour!
Guizhi wiped her tears and did not dare to cry loudly, "Even the sweepers in the palace did not eat food like this before! This is too much of a bitch!"
"Why, you still picked one? Humph, maybe one day it will all be gone!" The eunuch who delivered the meal at the door smiled, "I thought he was the master! Huh! Soon, I will have to move to the cold palace. !”
"Our master has been wronged. The emperor and the empress will give us justice!" Guizhi said: "If you act like this, one day our empress will look for you!"
"Why are you looking for us?" Several young eunuchs laughed, "We don't want to go to the cold palace with you!"
"You! You!" Guizhi said angrily: "Our concubine Jia and concubine Hui are good friends. If you do this, be careful..."
"Oh, are you trying to scare me?" The little eunuch said with a smile: "You don't know yet, do you? It was Empress Hui who stood up and said that you concubines have had this idea for a long time. The emperor just issued the decree, and there is no evidence. Yes, if there are still some details that I haven’t figured out yet, you guys, huh, I don’t know where you are now!”
"What?"
"Forget it, what are you talking to them about? You might end up in trouble." Another eunuch took away the person who just spoke, "Let's go on playing cards!"
Seeing the eunuchs walking further and further away, Guizhi finally realized what had happened and hurriedly ran over to tell his master about the matter.
"Master, do you think this is true?" Guizhi's face was full of disbelief.
Shen Ruoyi was also full of disbelief, "How is this possible? How could Hui Bin harm me?"
"But it's been such a long time. It's true that Empress Hui has never been here. Even if she can't come in, she can obviously pass through the crack in the door at night or bring something with her."
Shen Ruoyi looked at Guizhi with confused eyes, muttering Guizhi's words, and said to herself: "Yes! She has never been here once!"
In order to verify whether this matter was true or not, Shen Ruoyi asked Guizhi to use money to find a way to entrust someone to send a message.
But after waiting for several days and dragging along several familiar sisters, there was still no reply.
"Is the person you are looking for reliable?" Shen Ruoyi gritted her teeth.
Guizhi bit her lip, "They are all sisters who were acquainted with each other in the past, and they have given us benefits. They should be able to help."
"Yes! There are several people here, they can't all be ungrateful!" Shen Ruoyi burst out laughing, laughing like crazy in the room, "It's shameless! All sisters are fake. Yes! Fake!”
"master!"
"Hahaha! Hahaha!"
"Master! Master, don't do this, don't do this!" Guizhi cried and persuaded: "Maybe... maybe we thought wrong, and the person I was looking for didn't do anything! Or..."
"How is that possible! Don't lie to me! Don't lie to yourself either!" The concubine may be tired of laughing, or she may be really sad. She smiled bitterly with tears in her eyes and said, "Why did the emperor suddenly lock me up? ! It turns out someone was the witness, and it was her! Everyone in the palace knows that we have a good relationship, so if she goes to testify, won’t they believe it! Hahaha!"
"Master, what should we do?" Guizhi asked fearfully: "The emperor will not listen to their slander, right?"
"Who knows!" Shen Ruoyi wiped her tears and said with a wry smile: "If there is a child, maybe the emperor can consider it. Now..."
Shen Ruoyi now regrets not pushing Shen Ruochen up earlier. If he is sleeping with her now, isn't it... Of course, he might also be a treacherous person.
"Where's the fifth lady? Go and call her."
Guizhi said hurriedly: "I will go and invite the fifth young lady now."
When Shen Ruochen came in, he was covered in dirt, even in his hair, and his hands were even worse.
"What are you doing?" Shen Ruoyi frowned.
"Sister, I found a dog hole in the backyard. Little Walnut and I dug it all morning, and now we can get out. Look!" Shen Ruochen happily took out two pieces of meat and a handful of rice from his pocket. "We are not afraid of being hungry, we have food. I saw there are a lot of weeds in the backyard, and there is enough firewood!"
Shen Ruoyi smiled bitterly, "I'm embarrassing you, but it's better not to go out in the future. It's not good to be discovered."
Shen Ruochen scratched his head and said nothing.
Shen Ruoyi looked at her sister and said, "If you were locked up here with me for the rest of your life and could never get out, would you regret it?"
Shen Ruochen shook his head directly.
"You don't have to be afraid, what I said is true," Shen Ruoyi stared at Shen Ruochen's eyes, as if she wanted to see into Shen Ruochen's heart, "If we were here all our lives without food and clothing, what would you do? Don’t you regret letting you come into the palace?”
Shen Ruochen still shook his head.
"Why are you always shaking your head when you talk?"
Shen Ruochen scratched his head and said, "Sister, did the emperor not let us go out?"
"Yes! I can't get out!" Shen Ruoyi said firmly.
Shen Ruochen thought for a while and said, "How much money does sister still have?"
Shen Ruoyi looked at Shen Ruochen, "Why do you ask this?"
Shen Ruochen clapped his fingers and said seriously: "Actually, I've seen it in the past few days. Our palace is quite big and there is a lot of open space. Let's use the money to exchange for some seeds to plant. This little walnut will do it. Then we will help , enough for just the few of us! But there is no meat..."
Shen Ruochen continued to think about it: "Don't worry about that. When will the kittens and puppies come in? When we raise them, we can do it... As for the clothes, they have been mended for another year, so it should be fine. At most, we can find ways to use vegetables. Change it to something else, um, no problem!”
"You...you don't regret it?" I thought she would cry and make trouble, but I never expected that Shen Ruochen would be quite excited!
