The third day of April in the 88th year of the night calendar

Yege Prime Minister's Mansion

The sun was shining, the breeze was gently ruffling the locust leaves in the small courtyard, and the birds were singing happily on the trees. In the side room of the small courtyard, a graceful woman stood in front of some clothes and hesitated, not knowing what to do with such an important treasure banquet today.

What is the appropriate attire?

Her beautiful eyelashes like fan-shaped shells were fluttering up and down, and there was indescribable happiness in her dark eyes with peach-shaped eyes. She had lived in the backyard for these years and had little contact with outsiders. How could she meet the two princes at the same time today?

Make her unhappy.

She also knew the emperor's purpose of holding this treasure banquet in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Since her mother's death, she had followed her mother's will: to swallow her anger and live an elusive life.

She was just waiting for this day. Thinking of this, her jade-like face showed a rare shyness of a girl.

She picked out a piece of clothing that was aqua blue, and was about to try it on in front of the bronze mirror, when she heard the sound of birds flapping their wings and screaming outside, and looked at the locust leaves scattered all over the ground.

Leng Rutong's heart sank, her body couldn't help trembling, her eyes betrayed her fear, but she didn't forget to quickly turn around to pick up the few clothes on the bed. Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned around, a malicious voice came from behind: "Sister

It’s such a good idea to prepare clothes here so early.”

Leng Rutong's weak little hands tightly grasped a few pieces of clothing and tied them behind her back, looking fearfully at the group of people coming in like a frightened elk.

Why, after all these years, she had allowed them to bully her and endure humiliation, but to this day they still don't want to give her a chance.

These people were none other than the daughters of each room in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and they were also her sisters. However, she had never experienced sisterhood from them. In the warm spring afternoon, her whole body felt cold.

Leng Rutong looked at the clothes they were wearing. They were all in full bloom. Their clothes and jewelry were much better than hers. In recent years, except for the Chinese New Year when she could get one or two pieces of clothes, her second mother would not buy anything for her at ordinary times.

But she never cared about it.

She always remembered her mother's words, don't worry about it, save yourself, find someone to marry and escape from the Prime Minister's Mansion when you are of the right age. However, she was already in her prime years, but no one came to propose marriage.

Leng Ruling, who was standing at the front, winked at the third lady next to her, Leng Ruxiu. Leng Ruxiu stepped forward and snatched the clothes from Leng Rutong's hand. She shook her head and sneered: "Sister, why are these clothes like this?"

It looks familiar."

She suddenly threw the clothes aside as if they were dirty: "It turns out they are the clothes you planned to throw to the street beggars a few years ago, second sister."

Leng Rutong stood there with her head lowered, letting them ridicule her. They would leave once they were tired of bullying.

The fourth young lady was biting an apple and laughing loudly: "These are all things from a few years ago, and they are still held as pawning treasures. Sister, if you have no clothes, come to my place. I have a few clothes ready to be given to the servants."

As soon as she spoke, several other people glared at her, and the fourth lady realized that she had talked too much.

"My mother is not here and my father doesn't love me. It would be great if my eldest sister could still have clothes to wear. If my mother hadn't been kind-hearted, she would have eaten that beggar on the street." Leng Ruling's eyes showed a ruthless look, as if they were as cold as pupils.

Even though she had clothes to wear, she still received charity from her mother.

"I guess the eldest sister also knows this, so she is so anxious to marry herself off tonight."

"Hahaha, this is really the biggest joke I've ever heard. She's so old and can't bark. Even ordinary people don't dare to come to propose marriage, and they still hope that the prince will like her."

"You can't say that. Although the eldest sister is a bit old, her face is still thin and tender, and it's slippery to pinch." Leng Ruxiu stood closest to Leng Rutong, stretched out her hand and pinched it.

Leng Rutong's face, all five fingers pinched into Leng Rutong's flesh.

Leng Rutong frowned and gritted her teeth to bear the pain, shaking her head and trying to break away, but she didn't dare to resist because she knew that the more she resisted, the more she would suffer.

"Yes, my eldest sister's waist is as exciting as a willow branch." A hand pinched her waist.

"And this beautiful hair makes people forget to leave." A hand suddenly grabbed her head, Leng Rutong closed her eyes and endured all this silently. As long as the pain is over, they will leave, she comforted her like this

Hold yourself.

Unexpectedly, Leng Ruling, who was standing aside without making a move, suddenly screamed and pointed at the pile of clothes on the bed with a confused expression: "Then... what is that?"

"Second sister, what did you say?" Leng Ruxiu hurriedly followed Leng Ruling's shout to open the clothes, but suddenly she sat on the ground with a loud cry, murmuring: "Oh my god, sister, you actually

Do something like this."

Leng Rutong endured the pain, but when she heard their panic, she was confused. She ignored her hair and was pulled by someone and looked towards the bed. She suddenly saw a white pair of underwear on the bed. She suddenly turned pale.

Wu, turned around and opened his mouth desperately trying to explain himself.

But all I could hear was a dry "Ahhhhh", and the words could not come out of my throat.

The underwear on the bed was one size larger than hers. It looked like a man's underwear. She was so frightened that her whole forehead was covered in cold sweat. Where did this man's underwear come from? It was a capital crime and she had to be dipped in pigs.

caged.

"I didn't expect that the weak eldest daughter of our family, who hides in this backyard every day and thinks that she can endure loneliness, turns out to have had an affair with someone a long time ago." Leng Ruling's words came out of her mouth, and Leng Rutong was so frightened that she struggled desperately with them.

To defend themselves, they wanted to put her to death.

Mom, didn’t you say that if you hold back your anger and speak out, the world will be brighter? Why do they just refuse to let you go?

"Second sister, why don't you ask dad to deal with this disrespectful person?"

"Dad is so busy, how can he have time to take care of her? Since she is so shameless, we will kill her for dad, second sister, don't you think so?"

Leng Ruling's face was not warm at all under the sunlight, and her eyes were filled with fierceness: "Eldest sister was found out after doing this, so she should be ashamed of herself and die to apologize." Today, two princes came to the house.

First, she must not let any accident happen to this matter, so Leng Rutong must die. Only if she dies can she have the chance to marry the second prince.

No...no...she doesn't want to die. She has endured it for so many years, but in exchange for this result, no, she will never accept it. She wants to see her father.

She struggled to break away with all her strength, not caring about the blood on her face that had been pinched out, or the black hair that had been pulled to the bone. She had only one idea to escape.

Leng Ruling's eyes were vicious: "Run away? You want to run away now. It would be great if you had known what happened when your mother died and left the Prime Minister's Mansion. You wouldn't have to end up like this. In the end, you deserve it!"

She is also her father's child. Why did she say she deserved it? Everything she should have was given to her. Why didn't she let her go? Leng Rutong yelled and used all her strength to break free.

The hands that bound her were slashed across half of her face with a terrifying nail mark, and most of her hair was torn out.

The young ladies who had looked so cruel just now were stunned. They didn't expect that the weak elder sister would have such great strength when facing death.

"Escape, where to run." Leng Ruling reacted quickly and grabbed Leng Rutong who was struggling to get away, and several ladies pounced on him again.

"Run away to dad? Do you think dad will pay attention to you? He has not even glanced at you sideways in these years. You have done such an affair, where will he lose his face? Sister, in fact, death means nothing to you.

relief."

Leng Ruling paused suddenly and gave a cruel sneer: "My sister is here to help you." As she said that, she dragged Leng Rutong's forehead and slammed it against the corner of the table. Leng Rutong wanted to scream in panic,

But he never called out.

She fell to the ground with a horrified expression, and strange blood flowed from her forehead, staining the ground red.

Leng Ruling stood up, kicked her body, and flicked her clothes expressionlessly: "Leng Ruling was found to have had an affair with someone, and committed suicide in shame. Her body was not allowed to be collected without the Second Lady's instructions."
