"Because I want to torture her slowly." Yun Jingchu said slowly with a cold smile.
In her previous life, her master told her that the best way to torture a person is to constantly give her hope and constantly let her down. In this way, she will completely collapse and let others slaughter her.
On the third day, it was time to say goodbye again.
The harem concubines arrived at Fengxiang Palace early.
This time, Yun Xiyao was almost supported in by two little palace maids. Her face was as pale as if she had just recovered from a serious illness.
The concubines looked at Yun Xiyao with different expressions on their faces. Some were pitiful, some were gloating, and some were secretly glad that they had not offended Queen Yun.
"The Queen has arrived——" Yun Jingchu was supported by two female officials and walked in slowly.
Everyone saluted quickly.
Yun Jingchu walked to the throne of honor, then turned around and looked at the concubines who were becoming more and more behaved...
"Please forgive me, the Queen, because my legs and feet are sore, so my posture may not be standard. It is definitely not that I don't respect the Queen." As soon as she felt Yun Jingchu's eyes sweeping over, Yun Xiyao explained quickly.
Yun Jingchu didn't answer, took a seat at the main seat, and then said calmly: "Everyone, get up."
Yun Xiyao breathed a sigh of relief, stood up together with the concubines, and then sat down silently.
Yun Jingchu suddenly discovered that there was a female official behind Concubine De. Speaking of which, that person could be considered an old acquaintance of hers. That person was...
Qiaolian.
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Yun Jingchu's lips. She would never forget Qiaolian even if she turned into ashes. She and Qiaoyun were the two girls in the cold palace who were mainly responsible for tormenting her. However, Qiaoyun had passed away a year ago.
He was beaten to death by her design, and only Qiaolian was left, who betrayed a lot of information about Yun Xiyao in order to save his life, and eventually became Concubine De's confidant.
Feeling Yun Jingchu's eyes glance over at her, Qiaolian suddenly turned pale and was so frightened that her heartbeat almost stopped.
Ever since Queen Yun appeared in the Royal Garden that day, she had been in panic all day long, thinking that she would definitely die. I heard that even Concubine Shu had been at the mercy of the Queen for the past two days. She was a slave, and she was not allowed to be slaughtered.
However, the queen was obviously killed that day, so why is she sitting here in good health now?
What made Qiaolian slightly relieved was that Yun Jingchu just glanced at her briefly and then looked away. Qiaolian couldn't help but think: maybe... the fire damaged the queen's memory, and the queen forgot about her.
Such a little person.
Although she knew that this was unlikely, she still couldn't help but hope for luck.
Yun Jingchu looked at everyone and spoke. It was still a routine question. This time, Concubine Dong Xian had no questions to ask.
So they started chatting about everyday things. All the concubines racked their brains and guts, telling interesting things around them in a very interesting way, just to make Yun Jingchu laugh. Even Zhao Zhaoyi had a flattering look on her face and followed the trend of fun.
Only Yun Xiyao lowered her head and said nothing, occasionally smiling reluctantly along with everyone else.
Finally, the gossip came to an end. Yun Jingchu looked at Yun Xiyao and said calmly: "Concubine Shu also said something interesting, let's listen."
Yun Xiyao was stunned for a moment, looked at Yun Jingchu nervously, and then said cautiously: "I would like to remind you, my concubine, nothing interesting has happened recently."
"..." Yun Jingchu's face suddenly darkened, and he suddenly changed from a bright spring to a cold winter.
The scene suddenly fell silent, and everyone's hearts suddenly rose to their throats. They looked at Yun Jingchu and Yun Xiyao cautiously.
