Chapter 27 – Chance Occurrence Along a Narrow Path
An hour later, with her dress tied at the waist, Meng Fuyao sneakily flipped out of the large bathrooht
Just then, inside the bathroo Fuyao in front of her only two audience members half-cried and half-told a “love-sick woman seeks her husband for a thousand li but was forced into the royal palace to be a concubine, her pregnant body suffering frohness’ abuse and soon forced abortion” love story that was both tragic and touching, with endless tears that was so miserable it moved the listeners Fuyao acted out this play absolutely perfectly, using e narratives and rief of her husband disappearing, the bitterness of her trek while pregnant, the cruelness of her forced capture into the palace, and the tyranny of her evil male lead The appearance and attitude of a pitiful shly portrayed, resulting in the two listeners of the story to stream with hot tears, and immediately volunteer themselves to help her escape from that devil’s clutches
Thus one palace maid substituted her to sit on the toilet stool, while the other calmly went out the door to reply to the Zhan Bei Ye who had come to rush her “Madame’s stomach is not well, she will come out later”
The palacethe violent doeness in her eyes and tone of voice Thewhere the other side’s hostility was coly, he had already been labeled as a “robber of ordinary women, forcer of abortion”, the title of an unrivaled loser
The Meng Fuyao who had ruined his reputation naturally completely lacked in any sort of repentance or self-consciousness After crawling out of the , she sprinted the whole way out Hiding when seeing anyone and entering when seeing any door, very soon she had left the range of Qingyun Hall However, after running a long distance, Meng Fuyao realized that when turning here and there, all of the palaces seemed to be about the same, but the main entrance was nowhere to be found
She had gotten lost
Seeing a vacant palace courtyard in front, Meng Fuyao crouched on the ground while tugging at her hair, silently cursing the Tai Yuan i built by the rules Froy from her previous world, the imperial palace had three layers[1], with the Main Court in the center – if she directly went outwards froyun Hall, she should be able to walk out of the palace gates Yet from what she could see now, it looked like she had ran into the inner city
She earing palace ht now Those twoone to her, and ever since then no one had investigated her Meng Fuyao was planning to find a low status eunuch to ask for directions, when suddenly she s from behind the corner of a corridor
This aroma she was extrerade borneol[2] Carefully sniffing, her face changed at once
It smelled like the perfume that Pei Yuan often used!
Silently shouting not good, Meng Fuyao turned around wanting to escape Behind her jade pendants jangled, and a red-clothed person came around the corner of the hallway At the side was another person, that person walking while so to the Letter Palace, this old slave will lead the way”
“No need” Sure enough, it was Pei Yuan’s cold and arrogant voice, containing several rees of condensed chill than in the past She faintly said, “I won’t bother steward Jin to personally go, I will just call for a palace maid”
Bitterly co Fuyao stiffened her back like a painting, hiding herself behind a patch of shrubbery Just when she had moved a little, the steward Jin behind her had already loudly called “Hey, you come here!”
Fuyao froze in place, in a flash herover thousands of ideas To run, or not run? If she ran, her true qi had already been sealed by that damned Zhan Bei Ye, so she basically couldn’t run far at all If she didn’t run and was recognized by Pei Yuan, once she saw that Fuyao had not died yet, she would instantly guess that the wounds on her face were the handiwork of yours truly Once that time came, even if she wanted to die, she was afraid it would not be so easy
Grinding her teeth, Meng Fuyao inwardly hated on herself for escaping at this tiht have restricted her freedoreat, she didn’t even have confidence to preserve her small life
This moment of hesitation, seen by Pei Yuan’s eyes, had already caused her to be angry The veiled pair of eyes chilled, and with a cold voice she said, “Eunuch Jin, these servants underneath you seem to be more and more disobedient Even the calls of you inner court steward, they dare to ignore”
Eunuch Jin, losing face in front of the princess, also excitedly flared up With a stoh-pitched shout, “This little hoof[3], what palace are you from? How little manners! Go to the disciplinary hall for thirty staves!”[4]
