The next day, news spread throughout the harem that Concubine Jing slipped and fell into the water at night.
I heard from the imperial doctor that Concubine Jing was rescued too late and her brain had been deprived of oxygen for too long. She was already a little stupid and could only lie paralyzed on the bed unable to move.
Everyone in the harem just sighed that it was bad luck and forgot about the matter.
An unpleasant old concubine whose only support is King Yi.
But now King Yi was punished by the emperor to kneel in the ancestral hall. The punishment was extremely severe, which obviously made the emperor unhappy.
People in the harem have always been good at adjusting to the changing circumstances, so naturally no one cares.
At first, the group of palace maids who were often tortured by her were still wary. Gradually, they felt relieved when they saw that no one cared about Concubine Jing's situation.
The palace maid who was wronged was even more relieved, and she returned all the torture methods used on her by the concubine.
Concubine Jing, who was surrounded by feces and urine all day long and could not eat a good meal, could only bab and scream indiscriminately, but no one could understand her.
If the sound is too loud and disturbs the palace maids to take a rest, they will have to be slapped by several loud mouths before they can stop.

~~~
A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and soon it was the day of the new round of draft.
All the noble ladies from all over the country arrived in the capital within two days. For a time, the rouge, gouache, and jewelry shops in the capital were doing very well, and the shopkeepers were making calculations and laughing from ear to ear.
When Liu Man slipped out of the palace, she saw people coming and going on the street. They were all slaves who were ordered to come out to buy.
Especially Yuyan Pavilion, the most popular restaurant in the city, the door was surrounded by horse-drawn carriages.
System: [Go to the front and take a look. There are melons in Yuyan Pavilion. 】
Hearing that there were melons to eat, Liu Man skillfully took out a handful of melon seeds from the sunflower bag that Hua Wan had embroidered for her, and walked towards the busy place while eating them.
She remembers wrapping the melon seed peels she had eaten into her handkerchief. They were of extremely high quality.
When Liu Man got closer, she finally understood the reason for the excitement here.
Oops, it turned out that two beautiful ladies were quarreling in the street.
In the Yuyan Pavilion, two noble ladies were snatching a box of rouge.
The noble goddess wearing a pink dress, fair skin, and a mole at the corner of her mouth was sarcastic. She was holding the latest product of Yuyan Pavilion, a box of ten taels of Qianhua Nourishing Rouge Cream, and was proudly waving it in front of the noble lady in front of her.
And another noble lady...
There were too many people watching in front, blocking Liu Man's view.
This cruel fact told Liu Man that her current body was still a little potato.
"Tsk!"
Liu Man tried to stand on tiptoes, but she could only see the white scalp of the uncle in front of her. The uncle was almost bald.
Seeing her frustrated look, the system laughed very immorally, causing Liu Man to fly with a knife in the eye.
"Sister, please give me this box of rouge. Your skin is dark, and when you put it on, you look like a relative who came to the countryside to enjoy the autumn breeze during the New Year. You are really simple and honest!"
Liu Man looked along the gap between the shoulders and elbows of the onlookers, and sure enough she saw that the skin of the noble girl in green was not as fair as the girl in pink, but it was not black either.
The girl in green frowned, pointed at the face of the girl in pink and began to scold: "Shen Yiru, do you want to show off? I was obviously the first to see this, and it was your dishonest paws that got you ahead of me. Get it.”
The girl in pink was furious, "Where has your education gone? How can you curse people in public!"
The girl in green took a step forward with great momentum, her fingertips were about to poke into the nostrils of the girl in pink.
"Huh~ I'm uneducated?"
"We are both born to the same father. If you say I am uneducated, how can you be any better? If you see a good thing, you will snatch it from me. It is an ignorant thing."
The girl in pink clothes didn't expect that she would say it so frankly. Tears filled her eyes immediately, as if she had been greatly bullied.
"Wow, what a tough girl, these two are actually sisters?"
Liu Man was speechless. She had been in the palace for too long, and all she saw were concubines who had to twist and turn before revealing their true intentions. Even if they had a quarrel, they would just come and go, which was not interesting at all.
I haven't seen such a girl for a long time, and it was a bit strange for a while.
The eldest lady in front of her heard Liu Man's words and turned to look at her with interest, "Young lady, come on, come on, I still have room here, you can see more clearly from the front."
Liu Man squeezed to the front, smiled sweetly at the aunt, took out a handful of melon seeds from the small bag, and then grabbed the preserved fruits and stuffed them into her hand.
"Ma'am, please try this made at home. It's sweet and sour, just as good as the one from the nut shop."
"Hey, okay." The aunt didn't expect that the little girl brought quite a lot of snacks with her, but let alone, it was quite beautiful to crack melon seeds and read gossip~
Sure enough, in the front row, Liu Man could see the face of the girl in green more clearly. She and the girl in pink were indeed sisters. Their noses and mouths were somewhat similar, but the girl in green had more heroic features, and she had a chic and relaxed temperament. .
At this time, the aunt came closer and said: "Oh, the discord between children is mostly caused by the old people and immorality. Looking at the trouble between these two sisters, they seem to be enemies to each other."
System: [You have to pay attention to Shen Yiru, she is not a fuel-efficient person. 】
Shen Yiru was born a bad boy. She had deliberately caused trouble to frame her sister Shen Xian since she was a child. She also deliberately seduced the baby girl Shen Xian's mother had arranged for her, which caused Shen Shen Xian to have their engagement broken off and be laughed at by everyone in the city.
Father Shen had no choice but to pack up Shen Xian to participate in the draft, hoping to trade his eldest daughter, who was born to his original wife who died young, in exchange for a future.
But Shen Yiru was greedy for glory and wealth and wanted to enter the palace, so she kicked her sister's baby partner and begged Mr. Shen to participate in the talent show with her sister.
After reading this, Liu Man called her a good guy. The eldest sister was right. The reason why the sisters are not getting along is because her father is unethical!
"You have to be merciful and merciful. After all, she is your own sister. How can you talk like this? Girls have to be gentle and respectful to be lovable."
Shen Yi Rusheng was delicate and gentle, and she wiped away tears in such aggrieved manner. Immediately, a caring man jumped out and accused Shen Shen Xian of being too aggressive.
Liu Man glanced at the man without words, and covered her nose in disgust.
It's full of daddy flavor and it's all smoky to her!
Shen Shenxian frowned and turned around, secretly thinking something bad.
Damn it, this greasy man is like a dog to shit when he smells green tea, and he starts drooling at the smell.
"I'm telling you, sir, don't talk about women's virtues all day long. Make it look like you're very proficient. Don't get under the covers every night and wait to learn from them, right?"
Liu Man huddled in the crowd, holding her voice and echoing: "That's right! That's right! You secretly imitate women's virtues!"
Shen Shenxian was stunned and glanced at the crowd in a funny way, and happened to meet someone's big, bright eyes.
Liu Man blinked at her and shrank back before the big man looked over fiercely.
A burst of laughter suddenly broke out in the crowd, and someone who knew the big man joked: "Yan Laoliu, couldn't the blue and black under your eyes really be learned secretly at night?"
