Chapter 141 The Undisciplined Woman in the Qi Palace
You Qingcheng’s hysteria was manipulated. Xu Xi wanted to find out the pushing hands behind the scenes. And the palace had been locked when he reached there. Xu Xi leapt to the roof. During the half of the month, Xu Xi guarded You Qingcheng every night, only hoping the woman would not hurt herself when attacked by the illness. Tonight, there was deadly silence in the Eastern Palace. Those maidservants who used to keep watch at night were not in the bedchamber. Xu Xi leapt down from the beams and walked to the inner hall quietly. When he was about to push the door open, he was shocked by a scream inside the room. Xu Xi kicked the door open. A black figure flashed in front. Xu Xi felt bad and ran to the Queen’s bed immediately. When he came to the bedside, Xu Xi held his breath and uncovered the quilt slowly.
“Qingcheng.” Xu Xi called You Qingcheng’s name. Suddenly, a stinging pain hit from the back. The woman on the bed drew a sharp saber with a bloodthirsty laugh. Xu Xi just felt cold on his four limbs.
“Give my pureness back!” Xu Xi opened his eyes wide. It turned out that You Qingcheng knew what had happened in the military camp. He felt a twisting pain in his heart. It was a kind of relief to be killed by his loved person. Blood wetted his back. Xu Xi could feel the blood viscous and the woman’s face turned pale. You Qingcheng thought she would be happy, but when Xu Xi fell down slowly, her heart was hit by a sudden pain and she looked at him blankly.
During the half the month, the man used drugs to put all the maidservants into coma and did not leave there till the day broke. You Qingcheng thoguth she was dreaming. But when she woke up at midnight, she saw a man sleeping soundly on the bedside. His waist token attracted You Qingcheng’s attention. When she unveiled his mask, You Qingcheng felt a chill in her heart. The man was the second son of Xu family. In the military camp, it was him who had defiled her. You Qingcheng had never hated a person before. You Qingcheng thought she had been plotted by You Qingmo, but to her astonishment, it was Xu Xi, her childhood sweetheart, who did the dirty thing to her. Even if You Qingcheng gave him thousand cuts, she still could not vent her hatred. The man twitched in the blood. His hands raised but fell down slowly. No one could distain a gently woman’s ruthlessness. After Xu Xi snuffed, the woman came to him from the bed. Her little hands combed her black hair. When she got herself well, she took out a little bottle from a brocade box. In the candlelight, the box glinted with blue color. The woman, with bare feet, walked to the corpse. Ning’s wife outside covered her mouth with fear, and did not believe her eyes. Was the woman in front the Queen? Ning’s wife’s shanks shivered. Through the thin window, Ning’s wife looked with frighten from the tips of her hair to the marrow of her very bones. The corpse was resolved by the Melting Bones Liquid, and the burning and bloody odour filled the air. Ning’s wife covered her mouth and ran back. In the room, the woman stared at the pool of blood blankly. When she collected herself, she huddled up herself on the bed. No one could imagine that the demoness who just slaughtered a person without batting an eyelid was so weak now. When Shui’er broke into the inner hall, she saw a trembling Queen and found the room with strange smell. Shui’er wrinkled her nose, looked around and found nothing strange.
“Let it open. Take more air in the room...” Shui’er covered her nose and did not take a breath till the nigh wind blew in. A place near the Queen’s bed was left charred traces. Shui’er squatted down, trying to touch them. You Qingcheng on the bed screamed. Shui’er ran to the bed instantly. What’s wrong to her master today? Shui’er touched the master’s forehead and could feel the burning hot under her fingers. Her master had a fever. Shui’er had someone to bring the ice cube hurriedly, and she wrapped it with a brocade handkerchief. When the ice cube melted into pieces, she changed another new. Again and again, the master’s forehead was cooled down. Shui’er found clean underclothes and changed it for her master and did not leave the bedchamber till the master fell asleep.
Ning’s wife drilled into the quilt with scare. And her body was out of her control and kept quivering. Ning Hai was a bit surprised, wondering what’s wrong with his wife. Why didn’t she sleep at night? But no matter how hard he tried to ask her, Ning’s wife did not say a word. Ning Hai turned around and slept. After it, Ning’s wife made up her mind to leave the terrible Eastern Palace, and she was afraid of being killed if she continued to stay there any longer. Ning’s wife wanted to seek shelter from the Western Palace, hoping to find a place to live her life peacefully in the rest of her life. However, Ning’s wife’s dream was hard to come true. Because the imperial harem was a ruthless and greedy place, it was a blessing thing to live there. When getting up in the morning, Ning’s wife came to pay respects to Shui’er. Shui’er could not believe her eyes. The old woman used to be rude and unreasonable. Because the Queen took her to the palace, the old woman did not take Shui’er seriously. However, did the sun rise from the west today? Why did Ning’s wife work diligently? Ning’s wife wiped the ground of the bedchamber again to make sure what she had witnessed last night. She came to have a careful look at th place where the corpse had been resolved. If Ning’s wife had not seen it with her own eyes, she would have thought that she just had a dream.
Out of the Eastern Palace, Ning’s wife went home and began packing her things. Ning Hai asked her why for several times, but she did not answer him. Ning Hai got angry. Because his wife would like to make fuss about trivialities usually, but now she was dreadfully silent. But what would happen if Ning’s wife told her husband? He would think that Ning’s wife had hysteria. So she thought she’d better find another good master. For Ning’s wife, the palace was a place to play and visit. She packed up things and walked out of the door, even Ning Hai was unable to stop her but just let her do what she wanted. The virago would not look back till she hit the souty wall. Ning’s wife took her valuable things to the Western Palace, but got lost after several steps. The Imperial Palace was not like the common yard. Although she had been living there for some months, she was still unfamiliar with the roads in the palace. She had planned to the Western Palace, but unexpectedly, she went the wrong way. Jingyu saw an old woman hovering outside, so she asked a litte maidservant to lead her in. Ning’s wife had never seen Jingyu before. But seeing Jingyu live in a magnificent place, Ning’s wife thought Jingyu was the Master of the Western Palace, knelt down and kowtowed to Jingyu in a hurry. Usually, Ou Jingyu would show her true face instead of You Qingcheng’s look to others, except when she spent the bedtime with the Emperor. Therefore, seldom people had seen her. Even the people in the Eastern Palace could hardly find her. Ning’s wife did not know her of course, but Ou Jingyu knew her. Was the old woman the new female cook in the Eastern Palace? Why did she run here? Ning’s wife felt guilty by the stare. Ou Jingyu was jealous of the Eastern Palace, so she could not let go of the chance. The old woman came from the Eastern Palace, and she must know many secrets. Ou Jingyu helped the old woman stand up and gave a soft seat to her. Ning’s wife had never sitten on a soft seat made of mink velvet, and her fingers touched the soft mink velvet back and forth. The little maid giggled at the old woman’s funny behavior. Ou Jingyu gave a signal with the eyes, and then the little maid brought some desserts. The things to eat and use were transported by ship from Suzhou and Hangzhou. Now the war began between the south and the north. The things to eat became increasingly insufficient. Ning’s wife had never seen such exquisite food before. It was already an enjoyable thing to look at the food. Crystal cherry puddings were pink and delicate. Using a small spoon to split it, and it still swayed gently. Ning’s wife drooled, eager to eat it. Ou Jingyu’s kindness to the old woman was conditional, because the old woman was useful to her. Ning’s wife rubber her hands and stared at the dessert because she did not see such a delicious food in the Eastern Palace. The little maid served more food. Looking at the exquisite food, Ning’s wife did not move any more. That was what Ou Jingyu wanted. The things were the genuine fruits that Yan Shen transported secretly from Suzhou and Hangzhong. So it was impossible to be seen in the palace. Ou Jingyu granted the woman to have a taste of it. Seeing the delicious and colorful food, Ning’s wife gobbled up at one gulp, which made the little maid laugh.
“Since you’ve come here, you should come with some sincerity...” Having been living in the palace for months, Ning’s wife knew that there was no free thing in the world. Since she had come there, she decided not to return to the Eastern Palace. Last night, You Qingcheng’s viciousness let the old woman make up her mind.
“Your Empress, since I’ve come here, I don’t want to go back. Besides, the master of Eastern Palace is not a good person. Serve you, and I will have a better future.”
Ning’s wife belittled her previous Master to show her sincerity to the new noble woman. But Ou Jingyu did not want it, and the sincerity meant You Qingcheng’s weak point. Would the old woman pretend not to know it?
“Is there any weak point in the Eastern Palace...” Ou Jingyu reminded her. The old woman looked silly but had her own calculations. If Ou Jingyu did not make it clearly, she would not get anything out of the old woman. Ning’s wife knew it of course. But she had to hold back one trick for the sake of her own life.
“Fan’er, see the old woman off...” Ou Jingyu had to play some tricks on the old woman, as the old woman was not so foolish as Ou Jingyu had expected. The old woman dared to play tricks on her. Well, Ou Jingyu thought she should hold the initiative and have everything under control. Ning’s wife got flustered and knelt on the ground to beg the noble woman for leaving there. Ou Jingyu began putting on airs. She just sipped the fragrant tea and totally ignore her. Ning’s wife crawled up to her step by step.
“The master of the Eastern Palace, I’ve known her before.”
“Really? Go ahead.” Ou Jingyu set her mind on the old woman. It turned out that the old woman had known You Qingcheng before. Since You Qingcheng took her into the palace, You Qingcheng and she were not the common relationship of master and servant.
“I am from Qingyao Town. One day, two noble women came to find Magic Doctor Chang. By coincidence, the doctor lived in my home. Then, the master of the Eastern Palace lived in my home for a few days as well and asked the Magic Doctor to prescribe for her. She said it was the prescription for having babies. The Magic Doctor felt the master’s pulse and found out the cause of disease. And then, the master of the Eastern Palace spoke out the reason why she was unable to be pregnant.”
“Reason?”
“The master of the Eastern Palace has been defiled before...” What an earth-shattering and heaven-battering secret! Ou Jingyu was extremely excited in her heart. If Di Qing knew it, You Qingcheng was unable to sit on the Queen’s position any longer. Who could expect that the Qi Queen had been impure. In the place where the chastity was more important than life, losing chastity meant nothing but a road to death. Ning’s wife’s information came in time. Ou Jingyu thought she was in a favorable position to take place of the Queen. Living in the weeds, she always wanted to fight agains the fate. Ou Jingyu was a pawn and always controlled by others. Yan Shen knew her weak point. So Ou Jingyu had no way but to climb up to get rid of the constraint and remove any stumbling block. However, the Eastern Palace always hindered her way. To destroyed a woman completely was to ruin her reputation. Ning’s wife did not know the importance in it but just wanted to win the noble woman’s trust. Ou Jingyu burned with the ambition to get rid of You Qingcheng.
“Fan’er, take some gold bullions...” The person named Fan’er came back to the inner hall and came out with a tray gleaming with gold. Ning’s wife fixed her eyes on the tray. She did not have it in her whole life before, so she hurried to take the tray and held in the arms. Ou Jingyu narrowed her eys, thinking that the old woman was so greedy. Well, it was much eaiser to deal with such a person.
“Old woman, keep a close eye on the Eastern Palace.”
Ning’s wife got flustered at the words. Didn’t she go to the Western Palace for shelter? Why did she have to go back? Did it ask for her life? Ning’s wife showed great reluctance to come back. Ou Jingyu said she would take back the gold bullion, but the old woman clenched it tightly. Ning’s wife yielded to her desire. On the way back, Ning’s wife was in a rather nervous state. Afraid of being discoverd by the Eastern Palace, she slipped in from the side door. Shui’er kept busy, because the Queen had the bedchamber rearranged. Shui’er was too tired to straighten up and became angrier when seeing the Ning’s wife act furtively. Ning’s wife disappeared in the morning. Ning’s wife hurried to clean the door and windows for the fear that things would betray her. Shui’er looked at her blankly, wondering what happened to the old woman today. The old woman used to be unruly, but why did she behave herself today? Did the sun rise from the west? In fact, Ning’s wife had a guilty conscience in her heart, so she did not dare to make a scene. But she had the gold bullion now, and before long, she would become a citizen in the capitial. With the thought, Ning’s wife worked harder. After Xian’er had left, You Qingcheng seemed to be deprived of the backbone. Shui’er was just a little girl, and was still not qualified to bear the responsibility. Ning’s wife was totally a useless person and could not be used at all. The more You Qingcheng thought, the more sighs she let out. As a matter of fact, You Qingcheng had completely forgotten her killing and chopping up the corpse. Ning’s wife entered the room and served the food to the master, but she trembled. What was wrong with the old woman? She usually assumed an air of arrogance even in front of You Qingcheng. You Qingcheng stared at her, and Ning’s wife did not dare to look into her eyes directly.
