Chapter 5 Grinding

Chen Ruzhi was stunned for a moment, turned his gaze, and said in a hateful tone: "You woman, full of sinister schemes, Yue'er is so simple, she doesn't understand anything, why do you want to harm her?"

"She is a liar. She pretended to be someone else. I was the one who saved you back then. I bit your shoulder. Do you remember?" Bai Wanrou screamed.

But Chen Ruzhi said: "Yue'er has already said what you said, and she also has a token given by me. Do you think I believe you or her?"

There really is a token!

Bai Wanrou froze on the spot, while Chen Ruzhi smiled contemptuously.

"Yue'er said personally that you poured out the water on purpose to cause her to slip. How do you explain it?" Chen Ruzhi swung his whip again, causing Bai Wanrou's body to sway.

She was almost mad at Chen Ruzhi for trusting such a vicious woman like Yue Yi.

"Come here! Take this woman down and make her a slave from the lowest level."

Bai Wanrou was dragged away, but she was still shouting: "Chen Ruzhi, you are blind, you have been deceived by Yueyi..."

No one paid attention.

It turns out that the lowest slaves are cleaning toilets and sweeping gardens.

Bai Wanrou burst into tears looking at the pile of smelly toilets. For the first time, she felt resentful. She was determined to expose Yue Yi's true face and make Chen Ruzhi apologize to her.

She had never cleaned the toilet before, so she was holding the brush and didn't know what to do. At this time, Luzhu ran over and said, "Miss, I will clean the toilet. You can go and rest."

Seeing Lu Zhu, Bai Wanrou felt even more aggrieved. She cried and said, "Luzhu, Miss will definitely save you."

Luzhu also started crying, "Miss, let's run away secretly. Let's go home. Let's go find the Marquis. We will find a way. If this continues, we will die here."

Bai Wanrou shook her head, she could never beg for mercy from her father.

"Stop crying, Your Majesty doesn't like others to cry." A male voice sounded from behind. Bai Wanrou turned around and saw a familiar face. Hope was rekindled in her heart and she exclaimed: "It's you!"

Lin Feng, who was dressed as a guard, looked at the person in front of him and raised his eyebrows: "Have I seen you?"

This person was the person who saw her entering Chen Ruzhi's house three years ago. Bai Wanrou rekindled hope in her heart and decided to hide it first and save it until the critical moment.

She shook her head, and Lin Feng smiled, "It's okay, don't cry. It's hard for the prince to trust someone in a short period of time, and it will take time to see people's hearts. As long as you are truly innocent, sooner or later the injustice will be overturned."

This sentence undoubtedly gave Bai Wanrou a sense of hope. She nodded and vowed to wash away her grievances.

In the early morning, Bai Wanrou was sleepy-eyed. As soon as the sunlight filtered in through the window paper, she saw the arrogant face of the maid Xiao Tao.

"What can you do if you can't afford it? The princess is waiting for you!"

After saying that, Xiao Tao roughly lifted the quilt from Bai Wanrou, and Lu Zhu quickly pushed her away and said angrily: "My young lady is injured, how can she walk around? After all, my young lady is also a royal concubine! You guys

Aren't you afraid of retribution if you bully others?"

"That's it, Green Bamboo." Bai Wanrou sighed softly, her dark pool-like eyes drooped. It was useless to say more. She still couldn't escape and had to leave.

The burns I suffered yesterday were not serious, and I felt nothing after applying ice. However, the whip wounds had turned purple, and the blood had condensed, making them look a bit scary.

Her husband...what a war-god husband...

Bai Wanrou never thought that the weapon in the hands of her husband, the God of War, whom she had fallen in love with at first sight, would fall on her body. She smiled bitterly, put down her skirt, opened the door and walked out.

"Xiaobai came really early today!"

As soon as she stepped into the main room, Bai Wanrou heard Yue Yi's voice from a distance away.

"Oh! Princess, I just went to find her, but I'm still lying on the bed unwilling to get up! I don't know how valuable it is!"

The master and the servant sang in harmony and distorted the facts. Bai Wanrou just ignored them and only stepped forward to wait quietly.

"Xiao Bai, come here." Finally, the master and servant said they were tired, and Bai Wanrou was not angry. They seemed to be bored, so they waved to her, as if calling a dog, asking her to come forward.

"It's all because the prince was too brave at night. When I woke up this morning, my whole body was sore..." The angry tone seemed to be complaining, but her eyes were always on Bai Wanrou's face, with undisguised pride: "Little

Bai, could you please come and give me a shoulder massage?"

Bai Wanrou's heart trembled when she heard the word "Prince", but she still managed to stay calm and walked behind Yue Yi, saying quietly: "I can't."

No, even if I have never done it before, this is just a reminder.

As expected - after she pressed twice, Yueyi couldn't help but cry out in pain: "Press lightly!"

"I've already said that I don't know how to do it, and I don't know the importance of it." Bai Wanrou stopped her hand and accidentally knocked down a teacup on the table.

With a thud, the teacup fell to the ground and broke into several pieces.

The person sitting there was frightened and turned around and said: "Since you don't know the severity, forget it. Clean up the ground quickly to avoid hurting anyone!"

Bai Wanrou squatted down and picked up the fragments on the ground with her bare hands. In a panic, Bai Wanrou frowned: "Hiss..." Her finger was cut, a bloody gash opened, and a string of bright red flowed out, like a broken ruby.

"I've finished cleaning up, can I leave?" She frowned, holding the broken pieces of the cup with her torn jade fingers, which were slightly white. She was already a little hungry and unbearable, and just wanted to go back and eat something.

.

But the master and servant seemed not to let her go easily.

"Xiao Tao, look how clean Xiao Bai has cleaned up." Yue Yi pretended to praise, but her humiliation was obvious, her pair of triangular red phoenix eyes narrowed together in a smile, she was very proud.

"Yes, Princess. When I look at this slave, I just feel that I can't clean up as well as she can." Xiao Tao also fanned the flames and helped the tiger.

Yueyi covered her lips with a handkerchief and looked at Bai Wanrou with a smile: "Don't think too much, Xiaobai, Xiaotao and I are praising you!"

Bai Wanrou also sneered. What an obvious insult. Are you treating her as a fool?

"Presumably your life now is not as easy as before, right?"

Bai Wanrou only heard her pretending to sigh, and said very hypocritically: "It's a pity that you were so noble and noble before, but now that you have entered this prince's palace, you are not liked by your husband. You are unfavored and you are humble! Alas..."

Yueyi shook the handkerchief in her hand, picked up the tea cup on the table, and took a sip: "I have really wronged you during this period. Don't worry, I will talk to the prince after a while and lift it up."

How about your position making your life easier?"

After hearing this, Bai Wanrou's expression suddenly changed, and she clenched her broken fingers into fists without caring about it, letting the blood seep out and then drip onto her dress which was not clean.

This woman has taken over her identity, how dare she show off like this in front of her!

Why should she?!

"All good people let you do it, why do you do this to me?!" Bai Wanrou asked in a hateful voice, her eyes full of sternness, and her red eyes widened with anger, gouging Yueyi's proud face.

She is clearly the wife of Chen Ruzhi, the matchmaker!

You...how can you say that to me..." Yueyi's face turned pale, she was stunned and speechless, and in the end she just covered her chest and started coughing.

Bai Wanrou was stunned for a moment. Seeing that she was coughing badly, she asked, "Are you okay?"

However, the next moment, she was knocked to the ground by an irresistible force behind her——

"Don't be afraid Yue'er, your husband is here."

The scarred legs could not withstand the impact when they fell to the ground. Bai Wanrou gritted her teeth, endured the heartbreaking pain, and looked at the two people hugging each other tightly with eyes full of pain.

At this moment, she suddenly realized that Yueyi's cough was probably just an act, because Chen Ruzhi was already standing behind her and watching.

After a long while, Chen Ruzhi turned to look at her coldly and said, "Come here and let me see with my own eyes how you serve Yue'er."

He actually refused to leave any face to her?

Bai Wanrou's heart ached, and she felt even breathing became more and more difficult.

She closed her eyes and said slowly: "I'm sorry, but I obey."

"Will you tell me again?" Chen Ruzhi's cold tone was tinged with anger. Bai Wanrou's eyelashes trembled, and she repeated what he said: "I said, forgive me for obeying my order."

After a moment of silence, Chen Ruzhi sneered.

"If you don't do it, let your maid do it for you."

After he finished speaking, Bai Wanrou suddenly opened her eyes and looked back——

I saw Lu Zhu being pulled in by Xiao Tao, with a dazzling palm mark on his face.

"Luzhu...who hit this?" Bai Wanrou's outstretched hand trembled slightly and rested on the side of Luzhu's red and swollen face, full of unbearability and distress.

Lu Zhu had tears in her eyes. When she saw Chen Ruzhi behind her, she dared to whisper: "Miss, they bully people too much."

Xiao Tao bowed to Chen Ruzhi respectfully, but still had a hypocritical face: "I just want her to come in and serve the master, but this girl doesn't seem to be willing!"

Bai Wanrou turned around angrily. She actually didn't mention the injury on Lu Zhu's face. Could it be that she could just hit someone casually?

But when she met Chen Ruzhi's cold gaze, the anger in her heart turned into a deep sense of powerlessness.

Even if she opened her mouth to defend herself, he wouldn't listen to a word of it.

Bai Wanrou walked forward with lowered eyes, tears already wet the corners of her eyes.

"Your Majesty, my legs are a little sore, why don't you ask your sister to massage my legs?" Yue Yi said softly.

The beauty in his arms was so shy and lovely that Chen Ruzhi felt soft in his heart and responded softly: "Everyone is Yiyue'er."

Bai Wanrou didn't want to see the two of them having fun anymore, so she knelt down and stretched out her hands, waiting for Yue Yi to lift her legs and catch her up.

"I'm really bothering my sister."

The embroidered soles pressed against Bai Wanrou's wrists, and the wound that had finally stopped bleeding started to bleed again.

But the pain in her fingers was no match for the heartache. The pair of embroidered shoes that caught her eye were extremely familiar to her... They were clearly the dowry left to her by her mother during her lifetime!

"Why are you wearing my embroidered shoes!" Bai Wanrou pushed Yueyi hard and asked with red eyes.

Yue Yi gave a sweet cry and hid in Chen Ruzhi's arms, with a face full of grievance and innocence: "Yue Yi doesn't know what sister is talking about. Are these embroidered shoes yours?"

"How dare you push Yue'er if it's not just a pair of shoes?" Chen Ruzhi said angrily and kicked Bai Wanrou away.

"Isn't it just...a pair of shoes?" The smell of blood overflowed from Bai Wanrou's throat, she propped herself up and hoarsely said: "Those are embroidered shoes that my mother made for me before she was born. They are my mother's relics. How dare she wear them?
