Chapter 21 There are so many beauties in Shangyang Palace
"You are so beautiful."
I lowered my head and slowly removed the gold hairpin from her head, and said calmly: "Madam, I am so complimentary. Madam is the beauty of the moon, the beauty of heaven."
"Really?" She stared at me in the mirror: "Then tell me, if you and my wife stand together, who will His Highness choose?"
My hand holding the golden hairpin shook slightly, but I immediately calmed down my racing heart and said calmly: "Of course it's Madam. Qingying is no more than the light of a firefly, how dare he compete with Madam?"
"Really? So, what if it's Liu Ningyan and my wife?"
I was shocked and looked at her with wide eyes. She stood up slowly and looked into my eyes: "You helped that bitch get His Highness's favor back then, so what now?"
When I heard this sentence, an idea flashed in my mind, and I suddenly understood.
When we were in Ye Ting that day, she once said that she had always been in love with Pei Yuanhao, but two years ago, I helped Ningyan gain Pei Yuanhao's favor, and inadvertently made her love come to nothing.
I can only imagine her disappointment at that time, so she hated me and has been targeting me these days!
And now, she has become Pei Yuanhao's wife, so naturally she wants to settle accounts with me!
I said softly: "Madam, the matter has passed. Besides, Madam has already been favored by His Highness the Third Highness, so why should you still be upset about it?"
"Indeed, I am the winner now, and I really don't have the leisure time to argue with defeated generals like you anymore."
As she spoke, she took another step closer, looked straight into my eyes, and said, "Yue Qingying, as long as you know your identity, if I hear something I shouldn't hear in Shangyang Palace, you
Knowing my wife’s methods, I won’t let you off so easily!”
"Yes."
In this way, I stayed in Shangyang Palace and became Yao Yingxue's personal maid. Although my salary was much more than before in the Tibetan Pavilion, I was by Yao Yingxue's side after all, so it was expected that life would be difficult.
No matter what, the amnesty will be held in a few months, so just get through this period!
However, one thing that is unexpected is that Yao Yingxue's life does not seem to be easy.
It has been more than a month since he entered Shangyang Palace, and Pei Yuanhao has not once invited her to sleep with him.
I have also heard before that His Highness the Third Highness is a womanizer. Although the only people officially canonized as wives are the former Ning Yan and the current Yao Yingxue, the Shangyang Palace is full of beauties. These days, he still lets those concubines
The concubines slept with her but did not come to see Yao Yingxue, which also made Mrs. Yingxue's situation awkward.
For several days, she could only pretend to be cold and avoid going out.
That day, I came back from the kitchen carrying her food box. When I passed by Meilin, I heard a burst of laughter like silver bells coming from there. It was Pei Yuanhao's concubines playing.
I lowered my head and was about to walk over when I heard a voice: "Hey, isn't this Mrs. Yingxue's maid?"
