After the song ended, Ning Qingshan's hand dropped instantly. The pain in her fingertips caused her hands to spasm. The nerves of the fingertips are linked to the heart. If it was not for the fact that it was a very important occasion, she would have given up earlier.
The eunuch came down and waved to them to leave.
The ladies looked at Ning Qingshan. Ning Xueyan came over and held Ning Qingshan. She asked in a gentle voice, "Third Sister, what happened? Did you hurt your hand?"
In other people's eyes, Ning Xueyan's words sounded as if she was very concerned. But from Ning Qingshan's point of view, she could only feel the coldness and ridicule that she did not even try to hide. "Ning Qingshan tried to frame me. What should I do now? Otherwise, my finger would have been injured at this time, and I'm the one who would be viewed with disfavor!"
Honored Consort Ya protected Ning Qingshan so that she could play her song till the end, su
Everything in front of her was not the usual scenery which one would see in the palace.Ning Xueyan did not know how she stumbled upon this place. What was this place? The scorched weeds showed evidence of a recent fire. There were some blackened stones and half-burnt planks which had a few words on them. Unfortunately, it was too badly burned, so she could not see what the original words were.On the half-wall in front of her, some yellowing weeds sprouted intermittently Although it was already spring, the plants did not grow well and were all withered and dry. The crooked pillars were the only props that supported the half-ruined palace. One side had totally collapsed, and the other was already crumbling to pieces.From the fire scars and the weeds, it was evident that this palace had been burned sometime ago. It should be the ruins of a burned palace from the previous dynasty. No one knew why it had not been repaired and appeared so run down
"Aunt, I want that bitch dead. I want her dead." Ning Qingshan had a ferocious look on her beautiful face.Looking at her tightly wrapped hands, Ning Qingshan felt a burst of pain, as a wave of hatred and anger surged in her eyes. Hearing the imperial physician telling her that her hand was almost crippled, Ning Qingshan had only the name "Ning Xueyan." on her mind. It was this bitch who had ruined her hand and the path of her promotion."Qing'er, we can't deal with her at this time. Let's talk about it later." The Honored Consort Ya sighed and tried to soothe her, holding her other hand, which was uninjured."Aunt, a few days later? Isn't that when she will be married to my cousin? Aunt, I won't allow her to marry my cousin." Ning Qingshan gritted her teeth and looked coldly at the Honored Consort Ya. There was an evil look on her face. She was unwilling to give up. How could she be willing? She was to be the wife of the Third Prince, but how
Her wrists and chin began to itch, and her tender skin began to swell at a visible speed. Hideous sores sprouted and covered her wrists and the back of her hands. Her hands were unpresentable. Several sores grew on her chin, ruining her beautiful face.It was painful and itchy, but Ning Xueyan knew that she should not scratch the itch. If she scratched her skin, the inflammation would inevitably spread. However, this could not be verified.This was from a recipe that Aunt Xiang had given to her. It took effect due to the mutual restriction between two kinds of flowers. Only the flower juice of balsamine and pollen of the Mingyang flower were effective. If she did not touch it, it would heal in a few days. But if she scratched it, it would spread out on a large scale. Even if it healed, there would be scarring.Even though she felt uncomfortable, she could only endure it, as a trace of determination flashed in her eyes.The flower s
"Did my uncle take her away?" Ao Mingyu suddenly stood up and asked, as his face paled."Yes, I heard that it was because of the dispute with the Vice Minister of Justice Ling's daughter. Prince Yi happened to witness it, so he asked her to go to the Small Jing'an Temple to seek the Buddha reason." The eunuch answered carefully."Coincidence? He did it on the spur of the moment? So, he brought her to the Small Jing'an Temple to let Senior Nun Yuming see if they were compatible with him?"Ao Mingyu frowned and asked, "Did the two ladies go to the Small Jing'an Temple together?""The Vice Minister of Justice Ling's daughter was unwilling to go, and was thrown into the flowering shrubs, and her face was hurt.""What about the Fifth Young Lady?" Ao Mingyu was shocked and unconsciously clenched his fist."The Fifth Young Lady did not say anything to Prince Yi, and she followed the eunuch to the Small Jing'an Te
"Ning Ziying is the princess of the former dynasty," Senior Nun Jing Kong said in a low voice with sadness and anger in her eyes."I was the princess of the previous dynasty in my previous life?" As if being struck by lightning, Ning Xueyan felt like her body almost went stiff.She had imagined thousands of possibilities, but not this one. If she was the princess of the previous dynasty, what was the real identity of the noble Ning Qingshan?Taking a deep breath, Ning Xueyan could not help but protest in spite of her composure, "Master Jing Kong, you must get it wrong!""Fifth Young Lady, since you're close to the princess and she also left the last words to you, you must have found she was kind of different from ordinary people." Since she had revealed Ning Ziying's real identity, Senior Nun Jing Kong did not intend to keep anything from Ning Xueyan.It was said that the imperial harem was on fire when the former dyna
"Okay!" Unexpectedly, Ao Chenyi did not make things difficult before letting her go. Although his eyes still looked thoughtful and serious, they were not as cold as before. He reached out and stroke her head gently which he had rarely done. "Don't worry. Nobody will bully you after you marry me."Ning Xueyan looked up in astonishment, wondering what he meant. However, when she was still savoring his words, he had turned around and strode away.Not long after she sat back to the futon again, she saw a palace maid coming over."Is it Fifth Young Lady of Lord Protector's Manor?""Yes, I am!" Ning Xueyan stood up and answered.“Fifth Young Lady, please come with me. All the other candidates have gone back to rest and wait for further notice. You can go back as well now," the palace maid said with a smile.It turned out that today's activity had ended. Ning Xueyan stood up with a nod and went to Shuyu Palace fo
Honored Consort Ya had always been gentle in public, but when she heard the rumors, she was so furious that she even smashed several vases and other utensils. On the one hand, she was annoyed by the rumors. On the other hand, the rumors were consistent with the truth.What confused Honored Consort Ya most was that she had asked someone to put a lot of flowers in the water that had been soaked in the potion, but instead of being destroyed, Ning Xueyan only had a small amount of rash on her face. If Ning Xueyan had really bathed for a while in the water with the flower, she should have rashes all over at least. Moreover, it was impossible for the rashes to disappear in a few days and Ning Xueyan's face might have scared even after she recovered.What was wrong? Why was Ning Xueyan found to have only a few rashes on her face in the physical examination, but soon after the examination, there were only some faint red marks left on her chin? It was obvious that s
Ning Xueyan did not say much to Ning Qingshan. Now they both knew that they had officially broken up with each other. Since everyone present was their henchmen, it was unnecessary for them to pretend to be close sisters in front of them.Before, Ning Qingshan might not deliberately say something in front of others. But now she only wanted to get rid of Ning Xueyan, so she did not care that much. After Ning Xueyan left, she stared at the candlelight in a daze for a while, thinking if she had known that Ning Xueyan was so difficult to deal with, she would have killed her soon after she came to the manor.If she had not taken too much into consideration, she would not have let her live until now.After seeing Ning Xueyan off, Mammy Luo saw Ning Qingshan in a daze gloomily. "Miss, you haven't recovered yet. You need to rest early," she could not help persuading her master."Mammy Luo, will Ning Zu'an find anything?" Ning Qingshan asked
