The fake daughter of a fallen ghost is reborn

Chapter 219 It's definitely not my retribution [Please read this chapter]

Xue Panrou didn't know how she had fallen to this point. It seemed... since she pushed Xue Zhiyi into the water, her life had taken an irreversible turn for the worse. First, she was confined to her house again and again, and then, a group of people rushed into the Xue Mansion and detained all the members of their family.

Then, she entered such a dark place, and from a noble lady, she was transformed into a lowly slave who could be bullied by everyone.

She curled up and cried uncontrollably.

She became the kind of person she despised the most...

But Xue Panrou didn't think it was retribution for her. She just thought it must be Xue Zhiyi. It must be Xue Zhiyi who did it! It must be that bitch who was possessed by some dirty thing and came to their house to claim their life!

The people surrounding her were still beating, scolding and laughing at her. There were also a few people who had nothing to do with it and just stood by and watched her being humiliated.

Xue Panrou then remembered that when she was first demoted to the palace, several people took the initiative to talk to her, but she was the one who scolded those people as lowly and vulgar, saying they were not worthy of being associated with her. After a few times, no one sympathized with her anymore.

She was mad with hatred. When she thought that Xue Hanshu, who had been stepped on by her all her life, was still living in the Zhao family and enjoying a life of luxury, she wanted to kill Xue Hanshu.

It was Xue Zhiyi who harmed her, but it was also Xue Hanshu who robbed her of her marriage and destiny, which led to her falling into this situation!

At this moment, someone shouted angrily: "What are you doing? How dare you be so presumptuous in the palace? You don't want to live anymore!"

The visitor was also dressed as a palace maid, but judging from her attire, she looked very different from the servants in the palace. She was adorned with more jewels than many young ladies from official families. She looked like a senior palace maid in some mistress's palace.

Several people wilted in an instant, looked at each other, and quickly lowered their brows and eyes.

Someone brave enough said, "Sister, Panrou was not careful just now..."

"Shut up!" the maid shouted, "No matter what she did wrong, someone will punish her. How can you abuse her to punish her?"

The servants then shut up.

The head maid just looked at them coldly and said, "Okay, everyone leave."

The few people stopped talking, just picked up the manure buckets and walked away in a line.

Looking at the person on the ground, the senior palace maid covered her breath with a handkerchief.

Xue Panrou just struggled and slowly sat up. She looked up at the person who came, but the glaring sunlight made it difficult for her to see the person's face clearly.

She said with a nasal voice: "Who... are you?"

The man smiled and said, "Of course I'm here to save you, Xue Panrou, do you still want to live such a humiliating life?"

Hearing this, Xue Panrou's breathing stagnated. She hurriedly stood up, kowtowed, and cried bitterly: "Please! Please save me! I can't rot here! I beg you!"

……

Outside the door of Changsheng Palace.

Although Concubine Wu Lifei was not young, she was still graceful. She only smiled slightly and glanced at the people around her. The palace maid stuffed the silver into Peng Hui's hand and said, "This is for the eunuch to have tea."

But Peng Hui politely refused: "Empress Li, Concubine An is serving in the palace at this moment, how dare I disturb her?"

Concubine Li was unhappy, but she didn't show it on her face. She just said, "I didn't mean to disturb Your Majesty. I just thought about your hard work and personally cooked a bowl of soup. I wanted you to help pass it to me. You don't even want to help me with this?"

Peng Hui just wiped the sweat off her face and said, "Your Majesty, His Majesty has given an order that he does not want anyone to disturb him. Otherwise, I will hold your soup and kneel down to serve it to Your Majesty. I am willing to do so."

Concubine Wu Life was a little anxious at this. Everyone knew that the emperor favored An Zhaoyi. In addition to handling state affairs every day, he also had An Zhaoyi serving by his side.

Originally, there was a pregnant Concubine Song who shared the emperor's favor. But now that Concubine Song had displeased the emperor, the emperor had already moved her to the palace and confined her to recuperate and wait for the birth of her baby. He never summoned her again.

In this harem, An Zhaoyi is almost the only one favored.

Concubine Wu Lifei wanted to say something, but she knew that Peng Hui did not have the final say in this matter, so she could only leave.

When they were in the Imperial Garden, they were stopped by Concubine Ge.

Concubine Wu Lifei was a foreigner who had come here from a long distance to marry into the imperial court. She was usually very friendly and smiled at everyone she met.

She bowed and said, "Greetings, Imperial Concubine."

The imperial concubine just smiled and said, "Looking at the direction of Concubine Li, she seemed to have come from the Changsheng Palace. Did His Majesty summon my sister?"

Looking at Concubine Ge's expression, there was nothing wrong, as if he really just met her by chance and chatted with her for a few minutes.

She smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty favors someone now, and I know that. How can Your Majesty have time to see me? You are teasing me."

Speaking of this, the imperial concubine also sighed slowly: "Yes, Your Majesty has not set foot in Cuiwei Palace for some time."

Concubine Ge was favored in the past, and Concubine Li was also favored in the past. However, no matter how favored they were, they could not resist the emperor's greed for young bodies and faces. He always lingered between new people, but did not favor any of them in particular.

The emperor treated these senior concubines the same way, except that he seldom summoned them to sleep with him. Even so, he still visited them from time to time.

However, things were different after An Zhaoyi appeared, especially recently. No one knew what kind of seductive tricks An Zhaoyi used to make the emperor stay with her all day long and not ask about the harem for a long time.

Seeing the inadvertent loneliness in Concubine Wu Lifei's eyes, Concubine Ge pretended to be open-minded and said, "In fact, at our age, we have children and honors. It doesn't matter who His Majesty favors or who he summons to sleep with him."

Hearing this, Concubine Wu Life felt even more bitter. If it were any other day, she would certainly think so, but now, she had a reason to see the emperor.

In front of Concubine Ge, she did not want to reveal her thoughts, and just smiled and responded: "Sister is right."

But Concubine Ge seemed to have just noticed the strangeness on Concubine Li's face and asked, "Sister, are you worried?"

Concubine Li suddenly realized and shook her head: "You are joking, Concubine. I just didn't sleep well last night and I am a little tired."

Seeing this, the imperial concubine just pretended to be confused and said, "I know that you have served His Majesty for more than 20 years, but now it is difficult for you to even meet him. You must be uncomfortable."

After that, he sighed again: "You should be more open-minded. His Majesty's temporary favor will not affect our honor. The children have also been in accordance with the rules and have left the palace early. As long as they behave themselves and don't make mistakes, His Majesty will not treat them harshly, right?"

It would have been better if she didn't say it. Once she mentioned this, the look of anxiety on Concubine Li's face became more and more intense.

Concubine Ge finally realized it and said, "It was my negligence. I was not destined to have a daughter. I forgot that Pingzhang's child is now of marriageable age. There can be no mistakes in the selection of a consort, otherwise it will delay the princess's life. Now I am afraid that Your Majesty will be misled by beauty and will not even pay attention to the matter of choosing a son-in-law for the princess."

This was exactly what Concubine Wu Life was most worried about. She had wanted to persuade the emperor to love his daughter and not send Ruxuan to Beidi before the Northern Di delegation arrived.

But now, I can’t even see her, let alone say a few words for Ruxuan.
