No, I was just a concubine, how did I become the queen?

"Stand still! Whoever spills a drop of water will have no lunch!"

"Practicing skills is for your own good..."

Mrs. Zhang's stern voice came from the house and sounded particularly creepy.

Wu Yunzhu was holding a bowl on her head, holding chopsticks in her mouth, and her calves were shaking from standing.

But even so, she didn't dare move, for fear that she would miss her lunch again.

She only drank a little floral dew and a bowl of medicated water yesterday, and she was already starving this morning.

But in the morning, Mrs. Zhang wanted to set rules for them. She didn't stand straight, so she was not only slapped on the palm of her hand, but also lost her breakfast.

She had managed to hold on until now, and if she didn't have lunch, she would really starve to death.

In the past, young palace maids who did something wrong were punished by being made to hold a bowl of water in their hands. At that time, it was considered a very light punishment.

Now that I am standing here and enduring this, I understand the torment it is.

But it is closely related to my life, so I have to grit my teeth and persevere.

Wu Yunzhu knew that as long as she held on, the emperor would definitely send someone to find her.

But if she can't hold on first, such a good pregnancy will be wasted...

On this day, Wu Yunzhu made countless rules and received countless beatings, and finally it was dark and time to go to bed.

There was a large dormitory in the mud house, with nearly twenty girls crammed into one room, leaving no room for them to turn over.

Outside, Mrs. Zhang was still complaining: "They are all useless. I guess they are just the kind of people who can accompany customers for a few years..."

The room was already pitch dark, and only then did Wu Yunzhu dare to lie down and cry.

She was whipped three times in the afternoon and her back was burning with pain. She didn't dare to lie down to sleep and could only lie on her stomach.

Hearing her sobbing softly, a girl of about fifteen or sixteen kindly comforted her, "Don't cry, go to sleep quickly, you still have a day of practice tomorrow."

Wu Yunzhu didn't answer, but the little girl next to her asked, "Sister, how long have you been here? Do you have to practice like this forever?"

She was transferred here together with Wu Yunzhu, and the person who started talking was someone who had been here for some time.

The girl replied, "I've been abducted here for over two months. I've been trained and beaten every day..."

She had seen many little girls trying to dig harder here, and they all gave up after being severely punished.

Now that another group has been arrested, she can't just stand by and watch. She just hopes that if they listen, they will be beaten less.

Through her introduction, Wu Yunzhu learned that there were actually thirty or forty girls living in this small village in the suburbs all year round.

They were all abducted from the capital or nearby, and brought here for training first.

After training them, we can take them to the south and sell them for a good price.

After they were caught, except for the particularly beautiful ones, Mrs. Zhang was reluctant to touch them, and everyone else would be beaten.

Sometimes, when the thugs are in trouble, they can just pick up a strong one.

There were only a few people in this group, so they seemed precious. Mrs. Zhang was reluctant to let her servants mistreat them.

This is just setting rules and cracking the whip, otherwise, there will be more people crying tonight.

After Wu Yunzhu understood clearly, the hairs on his back stood up.

She couldn't imagine how she would live her life if she was abused by those low-class people here?!

When he said this, everyone gasped.

The girl sighed and said, "This kind of thing happens a lot here. I know of two sisters who died from the humiliation they endured."

"I'm not telling you this to scare you, but when facing Mrs. Zhang, you should be sweet-mouthed and obedient. Protecting yourself is the most important thing."

She told the story of the two poor sisters, and many people burst into tears.

Wu Yunzhu was also stunned. She didn't expect that when she was unhappy because Yaliqi loved her more than her, there was still a woman in the world who suffered like this.

Her mind was in a mess, and all these questions that she had never thought about in her life began to surface in her mind.

Alas, she is the one who doesn't know how to appreciate her blessings. Maybe this is what she is talking about...

"Shut your mouths. If you don't get out of bed tomorrow, you'll be in trouble!" Mrs. Zhang knocked on the door three times with a stick and threatened viciously.

The room became quiet in an instant, and even everyone's breathing could be heard clearly.

Wu Yunzhu was so exhausted these past two days that she fell asleep in a daze...

"catch!"

"Not even one..."

"go......"

......

When Wu Yunzhu woke up again, she saw many people looking out the window.

There was also a lot of noise in the yard and flames shooting up into the sky.

Wu Yunzhu thought that maybe someone was looking for her, so she quickly jumped out of bed to check, but her bare feet didn't even feel the ground.

"Sister, are the soldiers here to rescue me...us?" Wu Yunzhu was so happy that she couldn't even speak clearly.

The older girl's hands were shaking a little: "It should be, these bad guys are going to be caught!"

She stayed here for two months, although she should have been sent south some time ago.

But because the holidays were approaching and these people wanted to do a big business, they were short of manpower, so the plan was put on hold.

It is said that after the Shangsi Festival, she will be sold after she has been trained.

Unexpectedly, in just a few days, officers and soldiers came looking for us!

Really...

She really didn't know what to say, and Wu Yunzhu just stood there stupidly.

Although she was abducted for only two days, she suffered all the hardships in her life during these two days.

Now that I've been rescued, I'm of course overjoyed.

When Mingchen and his men broke into the house, the figure holding the torch made her break down and cry: "I'm here! Here!"

When Mingchen heard the voice, he saw her at a glance and breathed a sigh of relief.

Since they received the news about Rong Mama, they have been investigating the case day and night without sleep.

If they can't find this place, or if they send the people away first, then it is estimated that the Black Cloud Pearl will never be found again.

Now that I've found her, I can finally give an explanation to my brother-in-law.

Wu Yunzhu didn't expect that Mingchen would find her in the end, and his image in her eyes became even more majestic.

She didn't know that this was the suspension bridge effect, she just felt that the person she liked was indeed not an ordinary person.

However, after this major incident, she realized her mistakes and realized that it was her willful behavior that harmed herself.

Since Mingchen is already engaged, she will keep her love for him to herself.

Before Wu Yunzhu was taken to the carriage, she asked, "What about those girls?"

"Are there other abducted women in the world who can be rescued?"
