Spring in the capital is beautiful, but it is also very short.?

When I looked up, the sky was still high and the clouds were bright. When the wind blew across the tip of my nose, it still brought the fragrance of flowers. But when I lowered my head, the scorching sun had burned my back and brought a hot temperature. The green leaves in the lotus pond were connected to the sky, and sometimes a lotus flower stood tall and stood tall. The pink petals were dyed with rouge-like red, but under the scorching sun, it looked like flames.

Burn all people from their heart to their souls.

The scorching sun shone on the ground, and there was a burning smell everywhere. Even the slurry in the bucket smelled even more foul. I held my breath and carried the barrel out with difficulty.

As soon as I reached the door, my hand loosened, and the wooden barrel fell to the ground, and immediately the water spilled all over the floor.

A violent stench came towards me. I covered my mouth and nose with my sleeves and almost vomited it out, but I had no choice but to clean it up, so I turned around and prepared to go back to clean it with a broom and water so that I would not be scolded again if I saw it.

But just as I was about to turn around, a voice sneered: "Long time no see."

When I looked up, I saw a familiar figure walking over gracefully. The gauze skirt on my body was blown by the wind, which looked particularly elegant. However, there was a disgusting and sarcastic sneer on the beautiful face, and a gloating expression: "Yue Qingying, do you still remember me?"

Condensing smoke...?

The moment I looked at her, my whole body froze for a moment, and she had slowly walked over, stretched out her foot wearing embroidered shoes and kicked the wooden barrel on the ground, and said, "How about suffering in the cold palace?"

I bit my lower lip, but I couldn't help it. I let out an unbearable retching, and I almost vomited out the overnight meal.

Since that day, Pei Yuanhao vented his endless tyrannical desires on me, I was tortured by him and fainted. When I opened my eyes again, I had already come here - the Cold Palace.

It’s not that I haven’t been here, nor that I don’t know that life in the cold palace is not easy, but no matter how difficult it is, I have to live it.

What I fear was that kind of complete despair, and there was no light in front of me.

Three days after I was sent to the cold palace, Pei Yuanhao inherited the Grand Principal, ascended the throne as emperor, changed the dynasty name to Tiansheng, respected his father as the Supreme Emperor, and imposed a general amnesty on imperial pens and immigrated the world.

In the cold palace, all you can get is this kind of news. At other times, you are working and working endlessly. From the time you open your eyes in the morning, you have to clean the toilets delivered from all over the palace last night, and then clean the cleaning of all places. In the afternoon, you have to wash clothes and water the garden, until late at night, and there are also needlework assigned by the nannies.

In such a life, I can not see many people outside the cold palace, and Ningyan is one of them.

But I never expected that she would talk to me with such a tone and expression.

After a moment of dry retreat, I even vomited sour water from my stomach. I could only wipe the corner of my mouth with my sleeve, and Ningyan sneered: "Oh, it seems that you are enjoying it."

I looked up at her and said lightly: "Master, what are you asking?"

I am not unfamiliar with her dress as a female servant. She has known her for the first time since she was imprisoned in the cold palace, and I also know what will happen next.

"Yue Qingying, don't pretend to be arrogant in front of me. Do you think I don't know what you are!" Ning Yan pointed at me with a sharp voice and cursed: "It's a good thing I treat you as a good sister. You just helped me like this. You didn't tell the palace anything - the emperor said, you want to make me be locked up here forever, right?"

I raised my eyes blankly and looked at her beautiful face with a completely unfamiliar and vicious expression.

"What about now? Who is locked up here? This is called Feng Shui taking turns!"

For some reason, I felt funny in my heart and picked the corners of my mouth slightly.

These days are not the first time. Since Ningyan found out that I didn’t help her plead for Pei Yuanhao, she often came to the cold palace to insult me. However, I am now in an ice cellar and don’t care about anyone and throw cold water on me.

So, he turned around and left silently.

Seeing that I had no reaction, Ningyan caught up and grabbed me: "Stop it!"

"Sir, what else do you have to give?"

"you--"

Seeing my expression of inactivity, Ningyan was very angry. She suddenly seemed to remember something and looked at me and said, "Yue Qingying, do you know why the emperor locked you in the cold palace?"

“…”

Why did I lock me in the cold palace, why did I torture me like this... Looking back on those nights, my originally indifferent eyes trembled slightly, and she seemed to have found my weakness, and her excited eyes were a little red.

"You might as well tell you that I told the emperor that you lied. On the night when the emperor was visiting Yao Yingxue, you secretly ran to the cold palace and stayed until midnight!"

What?! I opened my eyes wide and looked back at her.

Ningyan laughed: "Haha, you didn't expect it, don't you know why the emperor locked you up? It was me who told her that as a palace maid, you secretly ran into the cold palace despite the ban..."

I can't hear what she says later.

Not many people knew about the events of that night, except me and him, and the dead Yao Yingxue, but what I never understood was why Pei Yuanhao knew that the person on that night was me, not Yao Yingxue, but I never thought that it was Ningyan.

My fingertips were trembling, and I looked at her and said word by word: "You told him that night, I came to the cold palace?"

When I said this, my teeth almost chewed. Liu Ningyan had never seen me angry before. She seemed a little surprised for a moment. She took a step back subconsciously, but immediately said: "That's right, you deceived the emperor yourself. That's the crime of deceiving the king. I'm just--"

Bang!

With a slap in the face, Liu Ningyan was stunned by me and said, "You—you—"

After slapping the face, my hands were also painful. No matter how painful it was, it could not match the despair in my heart.

"You dare to hit me!" She probably never thought that as a dignified female servant, she would be beaten by a palace maid who was already locked in the cold palace. She was so angry that her face turned blue and rushed up to attack me, but at this moment, a voice next to her said, "What are you doing?!"

When I looked back, it was Madam Qian from the cold palace. She walked over and looked at me, then looked at Ningyan.

Ningyan looked at her with an angry expression on her face.

When she was in the cold palace, she was bullied by Madam Qian. Many of my monthly salary helped her pay into the old madam's pocket, so the two of them felt particularly jealous when they met.

Madam Qian sneered, "I said who is it? It turns out to be Ms. Liu. Why are you here to see your 'good sister' again?"

"Don't meddle in other people's business!" Ningyan said viciously: "I'm not----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I have to take care of the cold palace affairs." Madam Qian rolled her eyes and said, "Besides, no one can come in this cold palace. She also came in secret and ended up like this. Do you run here every day? Are you thinking about the past days or..."

Whenever he mentioned the incident, Ningyan's face looked even more ugly.

Madam Qian is already an old man in the palace. She is in charge of dozens of people of all sizes in the cold palace, which is not worse than her. Ningyan came to cause trouble for me several times before, but she beat her up in a few words. Today she met her again. Ningyan knew that there was nothing she could do, so she could only glar at me fiercely and turn around and leave.

After her back disappeared outside the gate, Madam Qian turned around and looked at me.

"Look at what you have helped. You have often scolded me for being unreasonable on your back. Now, let's see who is unreasonable and who is ungrateful."

“…”

"This little bastard/I'm not a good thing. You're so blind."

“…”

Now that things have come to this point, I really have nothing to say, so I can only pick up the bucket on the ground silently. Just as I was about to turn around and leave, I heard Madam Qian curse behind her back: "Hurry up and clean up here and come here to receive the reward later."

Receive the reward? I looked back at her: "What reward?"

Madam Qian glanced at me and said coldly: "Today is the Grand Ceremony Ceremony, and everyone in the palace will be rewarded."

The queen's title...the ceremony?

I stood there blankly, and it took a while to come back to my senses. Madam Qian had already walked away cursingly. I slowly raised my head, and the white sunlight above my head pierced people's eyes, which hurts so much...

.

That night, countless fireworks rose from the night sky of the imperial city, gorgeous and brilliant, illuminating the entire night sky. You can even hear the sound of fireworks bursting from afar, mixed with the sound of silk and bamboo, making the originally quiet night particularly brilliant and lively.

But on the other end, only desertedness is left.

After working for a day, my body was filled with sweat and an indescribable stench. I boiled a pot of hot water and filled the bathtub. After trying to see if the water is not hot, I turned around and closed the door.

Outside, there is still a night sky with fire and silver flowers.

The last fireworks bloomed, illuminating the entire dark night and my pale face. I looked at the gorgeous moment, as if it was an overly gorgeous dream, but in the blink of an eye, it disappeared.

It was almost midnight, and the hall gradually became quiet.

At this time, the state banquet should have been dispersed and the ministers should have left. What is left is the affairs of the emperor and the empress. I don’t know which woman who is favored by three thousand will be attracted to everyone’s attention to this night and will be favored for a lifetime.

Shen Rou? Yang Jinqiao? Or...

Thinking of this, a faint curve appeared on the corners of my lips - what did these have to do with me?

After bolting the door, I took off the cloth skirt from my body and walked slowly into the bathtub. The warm water swayed and ironed the cool skin, bringing a warm touch.

But, why do I still feel cold?

Holding my thin body, I was so cold that I kept shaking, slowly sinking into the water, letting the warm water flood me and everything.

Bang bang bang bang!
