Faced with Xiuying's resistance, the veins on Wang Jinghong's forehead turned red with emotion.
He is like a wolf licking blood, a monster in the mountains and forests.
He squeezed her slender wrist tightly, ignoring her pain, and roared:
"From now on, I am the master of this deep palace, inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people."
"I will make those of you who look down on me pay with blood!"
"Rumble..."
There was a rolling thunder in the air, which seemed to indicate that Wang Jinghong had turned into a devil at this time.
Xiuying, who was unreasonable and dull, was petrified with fear.
In the blink of an eye, they were completely different.
The umbrella that I didn't hold fell into the rain, letting the wind and rain roll away.
In an instant, rain poured down from Xiuying's head.
With hazy eyes, Wang Jinghong strode forward on the avenue inside the palace wall with his head held high and his arms straight outstretched.
No matter how heavy the rain eroded Lingchi, he happily accepted it.
Seeing this, Xiuying realized that Wang Jinghong had been restraining and pretending.
Her body trembled with cold, and she suddenly woke up.
…
Xiuying returned to Lefang dormitory with a pale face. She seemed lost and lost all the way. She ignored anyone and fell asleep without eating.
It was night, and the branches outside the window were beating against the window.
It rains heavily at night, like a ghost calling the door.
Xiuying dreamed of Wang Jinghong who looked like a ghost. She was so frightened that she woke up in a cold sweat and sat on the bedside in a daze.
"Yun Niang..."
A faint voice came from Guiyue's bed. Xiuying wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and hurriedly got out of bed.
I saw Guiyue holding her stomach, her little face twisted in pain and sweating profusely, her body curled up in the corner of the bed, her arms pressing her stomach hard.
"Sister Gui, what's wrong with you?" Xiuying was so frightened that she lost all sleep.
"It seems... I'm having my period..."
"oh."
She was slightly relieved.
During the days when a woman is menstruating, she will feel some discomfort.
But I didn't expect Guiyue to be in such pain.
She didn't have time to think too much, turned around, put on her clothes, opened the door and went out.
It took a while to boil a large pot of hot water, then refilled the sheepskin water bag given by Aunt Su with hot water and handed it to Guiyue.
"Put this on your belly to keep it warm."
Then, she rummaged through the boxes and cabinets to find brown sugar, mixed it into sugar water and let Guiyue drink it.
After tossing until the latter half of the night, Guiyue felt much better and then fell asleep.
At this time, the rain outside the house had lightened up a lot, and it was not like the rumbling noise that disturbed people's dreams when it first fell into the night.
After falling asleep, Xiuying almost didn't get up the next day.
My whole head felt dizzy, my feet were weak and weak on the ground, and my body felt a little hot.
She knew that she had started to have a fever again due to the cold.
Guiyue didn't seem to be feeling better yet and couldn't get out of bed.
After Xiuying insisted on dressing and getting up, she covered her face with a cloth soaked in cold water to make it fade away from the sickly red color.
A few days before Qingming Festival, it was still rainy and the sky was as thick as splashing ink.
"Sister Gui, you lie down first while I go to the dance studio to ask you for leave. Put the cold water on the table. I will prepare some food for you in the cafeteria later."
After saying that, Xiuying insisted on going out and walked to the music hall.
It rained continuously, and the air was filled with a heavy dampness, which made people feel uncomfortable all over.
Feng Guizhi saw Xiuying coming and ran out quickly.
"Master, the grandma in charge went to court to file a lawsuit, and she hasn't come back yet."
"There should be something to be announced in the palace. Nothing will happen, so don't make a fuss and be nervous. How is your piano practice going?"
Xiuying tried her best to put on a serious expression.
"No, master, everyone in the workshop is spreading the word that the prince wants to merge all three of our workshops."
"Eunuch Wang?"
Such a harsh title made Xiuying frown, "It's the king you met a few days ago..."
"Well, that's him...the prince who came to the Lefang dormitory."
"However, he is now the Ouchi-sama."
"I heard that it was the Queen Mother's decree at Kunning Palace before yesterday evening. He just took office this morning."
Xiuying's expression changed after hearing this.
Only then did she understand that this was what Aunt Su was referring to when she came out of Kunning Palace.
But for her, it's definitely not a good thing.
"Master, you...what's going on? Does it affect you?"
Seeing Xiuying's worried look, the sensible Feng Guizhi was quite worried.
"What impact does this have on me, silly girl, practice your pipa well. No matter whether the master is by your side or not, you must study hard and become talented."
Xiuying smiled and comforted.
"I understand, master."
"Then hold on tight and play it for me."
Feng Guizhi nodded in agreement, took out the pipa and started playing.
Xiuying was patiently guiding by her side.
At noon, Xiuying still carried the food box and walked to Wang Jinghong's prison cell.
But after dinner, he was nowhere to be seen.
Xiuying felt uneasy.
She could never forget Wang Jinghong's words and deeds yesterday evening, and they kept replaying them in her mind.
Why is he like a chameleon, changing his face faster than turning the pages of a book?
I really don’t know how to face him in the future.
What if he uses force on her?
Now he is the third-grade internal manager, with great power. Killing a low-level palace maid is like squeezing a mosquito to death.
Men are like this, if they like a woman, they want to possess her.
Although he is a eunuch, his possessiveness towards women has only increased, becoming even more intense and perverted.
Xiuying trembled all over thinking about it.
At this time, she couldn't tell whether her body was hot or cold. She only felt a little dizzy and dark in front of her eyes.
Since no one came back and she had no appetite, she put the food back into the food box without touching any chopsticks.
She slowly walked out of the cell.
But within a few steps of walking out, my head became very heavy.
There was no one talking in my ears, but I felt a buzzing and noisy sound.
After that, she forced herself to move forward, but she could no longer distinguish the aspects and didn't know where she was going.
Suddenly, everything went dark and the person lost consciousness.
…
In the evening, Su Lan came out of Kunning Palace.
As soon as he passed the shaft gate and turned the corner, he heard footsteps following behind him.
She turned around and took a closer look, and couldn't help but stop.
"It's you, Zhou Ping, are you looking for me for something?"
The person who came was Zhou Ping, the chief eunuch of the East Palace and the eunuch in front of the palace.
He doesn't show up easily.
"Sister Lan is fine."
Zhou Ping did not stop, but pushed him forward with three feet and two steps. The two of them stood beside the palace wall.
Seeing no one around, he lowered his eyes and said in a deep voice:
"This time, Miss Yun, I have to ask Sister Lan to take care of you again."
"You, a dignified fourth-grade chamberlain in the East Palace, are here just for this little girl?"
Sulan's tone was stiff and she curled her lips with disdain on her face.
"Sister Lan, you misunderstood."
Zhou Ping was so embarrassed that he blushed and had a rough neck, and quickly opened his mouth to defend himself.
"Hmph... You should tell me, what did Sister Lan misunderstand about you?"
"I was also entrusted by others to be loyal to others, so I secretly took care of her again and again..."
Zhou Ping thought for a while and finally told the truth.
