Dressed like this, she is dignified and elegant, which makes her skin as smooth as jade, making her even more pure and spotless.
Yan Susu thought she was going to give a long speech, but she didn't expect that she just said briefly and to the point: "Everyone, go in, my sister-in-law will be waiting inside, and Aunt Gui will explain everything else."
As soon as the Queen Mother finished speaking, everyone lined up in an orderly manner. Yan Susu walked behind the six concubines. It seemed that her status was not very low. After all, she was also the third lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
After entering, several sisters-in-law in blue and gray plain clothes knelt down to pay their respects to the Queen Mother.
After the Queen Mother gave her peace, Aunt Gui said a few words, and several sisters-in-law came up to guide Yan Susu and others.
Entering the inner room, you are facing a large Buddha shaped with gold foil. There is an incense table in front of the Buddha. On the incense table are several plates of tributes and a gold-lacquered incense burner.
The ashes of an incense burner accumulated in the incense burner, and three red incense sticks were smoked. The incense smoke curled up slowly, giving off a faint aroma.
Yan Susu only glanced at it briefly, then knelt down along with the procession and kowtowed to the great Bodhisattva.
After kowtowing, Aunt Gui spoke again, and the sisters-in-law continued to lead everyone inside.
Yan Susu didn't care what Aunt Gui said, she just followed everyone, watching her nose with her eyes, her nose with her mouth, and her mouth with concern.
After a lot of trouble, I worshiped several Bodhisattvas and did many inexplicable things, such as washing my hands with incense burner ashes, drinking a small cup of strange water, cutting a piece of fabric from my clothes, etc.
At the end, all of them were taken to the back door of the chanting hall. When they opened the back door, there was a green spring outside. Aunt Gui gave an order and everyone began to take off their clothes.
Yan Susu didn't know what she was doing before, but Yan Susu probably understood this step. It was probably the bathing and purification that Yuan Minrui said.
Taking off their clothes step by step, everyone stepped into the spring pool one after another. The spring pool was filled with warm water. In such a cold winter, it was very comfortable to soak in the hot spring, but everyone's face was full of...
His expression was pious and serious, without any hint of enjoyment.
The whole hot spring pool was filled with lifeless energy. The sisters-in-law stood in a circle around the pool, then they all took off the Buddhist beads around their necks, closed their eyes and began to chant sutras.
Yan Susu's eyes twitched, what is this?
She had an illusion: she and the palace maids and concubines were monsters subdued by the mage, and the ladies around them were all Taoist priests in the dojo, and she missed them to death.
She let out a helpless breath, not wanting to see this weird scene, so she closed her eyes and concentrated on enjoying the bursts of warmth and comfort brought by the hot spring water flowing across her skin.
While she was enjoying herself, under the water, another hand suddenly touched her gently.
This move was so light that there wasn't even a ripple. Yan Susu opened her eyes slightly and looked around. She didn't find anything strange. She thought someone had accidentally touched her, so she didn't care and closed her eyes again.
Not long after she closed her mouth, someone touched the back of her hand again. This touch was obviously more present than the last time. She frowned slightly, but did not open her eyes to look for it this time.
After a moment, the touch came again. This time, she was well prepared. She had her hand in her hand and had already turned the direction. The back of her hand was leaning against her waist, with the palm facing outward. So when the touch came again, she
He almost caught the opponent in one fell swoop.
In the water, she felt the other person's body trembling slightly. She opened her eyes and looked for the pair of jade arms under the crystal clear water. She soon discovered the owner of the arms: one of the six concubines just now.
One of the.
This man was not very old, he looked to be around fourteen or fifteen at most. He was not handsome, but he had a cuteness unique to that age.
The red lips are like two dewed petals; there is a faint smile hanging at the corners of the slightly concave mouth. The childish oval face looks moist and shiny in the silver light of the spring water. The pair of dark eyes
The eyes are lively, refreshing, and cool, as if there are two tiles of black mercury in the white mercury.
She knew that Yan Susu had found her, and suddenly she winked at Yan Susu slyly, looking very naughty.
Yan Susu was stunned for a moment, but then she realized what she was doing and curled her lips towards the other person. She let go of her hand in the water, letting her little hand slip away from her palm.
It seemed like she wasn't the only one who wasn't paying attention and felt bored.
Those little hands seemed to be at peace and did not cross over again.
The sisters-in-law thought about it for half an hour. When Yan Susu felt that she was about to become dehydrated, Aunt Gui gave the order for everyone to get up and change clothes.
The clothes are uniformly distributed plain clothes, which are the same as those worn by nuns. The only difference is that they do not need to wear a nun hat. However, the hair is no longer allowed to be tied into a bun, but hangs naturally down the back.
If this scene were shot in a movie, it would definitely be very beautiful and even a bit desolate.
Yan Susu would say desolate, of course, because everyone's expressions were so lonely, without any hint of joy, and with the clothes on them, it seemed as if the twenty or so women in their prime years had seen through the world of mortals and wanted to become a monk.
For Ni.
She was still in the mood to tease herself, but over there, Aunt Gui lost her temper for some unknown reason. At the feet of Aunt Gui, a palace maid was kneeling, trembling with fear.
Yan Susu is not a person who likes to watch the fun, so she didn't want to go over to find out. But she didn't want to watch the fun, so someone pulled her to watch the fun first.
She was about to step back to make room for people who wanted to watch the fun, but she was suddenly grabbed by her hands. She turned her head half way and saw the girl in the pool just now.
"Go and have a look!" The girl didn't dare to say anything, so she could only gesture to Yan Susu with her lips.
After saying that, without waiting for Yan Susu's polite refusal, he pulled her and patted the thousand-year-old palace maid.
The palace maid in front noticed her, moved her steps slightly, and gave her a way.
Yan Susu was pulled forward by her and saw a very cruel scene.
Aunt Gui violently hit a package on the woman's head. There might be something sharp in the package, but the hit was neither light nor heavy. The sharp force suddenly cut the woman's forehead, causing blood.
The beads immediately hung down.
Yan Susu frowned, and the hands on her side tightened.
The fifteen-year-old girl turned her head and shook her head at her with serious eyes, meaning that she could just take a look and not meddle in her own business.
Holding back the injustice in her heart, Yan Susu knew that this was the imperial palace, and the person who gave Aunt Gui the right to do this was the Queen Mother, a person who she could do nothing about if she wanted to stand out and fight against the injustice.
Perhaps because the scene was too bloody and everyone was a girl, many people were too frightened to look at it and lowered their heads.
"You bitch, the whole palace knows that the Queen Mother doesn't like pink. It's better for you. After a package of pink dresses, don't you have any other clothes? Even if you don't have other clothes, you can always bring a few sets of palace clothes! You
Do you intend to go against the Queen Mother? Who gave you the courage?" Aunt Gui's words were harsh and sharp.
The kneeling palace maid didn't dare to raise her hand to wipe the blood from her head. She only defended herself a little in fear: "I don't have any other clothes. They said I would wear a few sets of plain clothes. Palace clothes are all."
Emerald green, slave..."
"Pah!" He slapped the face full of red blood with a fierce slap. Judging from the way the palace maid fell to the side after being hit, it seemed that she had used all her strength in the slap.
Yan Susu really couldn't stand it any longer, and several times she wanted to rush forward to help the palace maid, but was stopped abruptly by the little girl in front of her.
The palace maid on the ground seemed to have been bleeding too much, was too frightened and was slapped too hard. After the slap, she did not get up again and fainted at the feet of Aunt Gui.
Seeing this, Aunt Gui didn't seem to be relieved, so she kicked the palace maid three or two times like a dog. Seeing that she really didn't have any reaction, she lazily said to the two younger nuns behind her: "
Go ahead and remove him from the list of people traveling this time and assign him a clean room."
The two nuns came up quickly and dragged the unconscious palace maid off the ground like a dog fighting to death. Many people were in shock, as quiet as ice, and did not dare to say a word.
Watching the man being dragged away, Yan Susu felt so powerless for the first time. In this society of "people cannibalize people", the king is respected and can kill at will and do whatever he wants, but those who live at the bottom are like the fish under the knife and the flesh on the ground.
, a lifetime of caution is no match for one mistake.
Yan Susu has never seen such a chilling scene while staying with Yuan Minrui. She has only been with the Queen Mother for a day today, and she has experienced it firsthand.
Today, for the so-called protection of herself, she stood aside and watched.
What about next time?
What about next time?
How many times is she going to stand by and watch? Is her conscience going to succumb to the words "the king is respected" bit by bit?
No, she is a human being, not a puppet, an animal, or a tree.
