The Peerless Concubine of the King's Favorite

Chapter 6
After such an experience, how could she dare to give her sincerity so easily?Chu Qing smiled wryly, but she had to play the role well at this time, so as to comfort the sobbing Li Shi.

The sky was twilight, and Chu Qing, who hadn't slept all night, slowly opened his eyes, and sat up carefully from the big carved bed.Looking at the layers of gauze curtains, thinking that I am already in an inexplicable time and space at this time, a sense of loneliness suddenly arises in my heart.

Yesterday, after comforting Mrs. Li, she finally got her wish to drink water.With the moisturization of the liquid, she felt truly alive.

She was already in good health, but Mrs. Li was worried that she would catch the cold again, so she was not allowed to get out of bed.Therefore, she could only take advantage of the dawn to get out of bed and move around. In her previous life, she had been lying down all her life. In this life, she cherishes the feeling of being able to walk with her feet touching the ground.

Mingliu and Cuicui slept in the outer room, so they could hear the movement inside at any time.But Chu Qing didn't intend to wake them up, she tiptoed up from the bed, stepped on the cold floor with her bare feet, and when she felt down-to-earth, she was as strong as her and shed two tears.

Slowly walking towards the latticed window lattice, pushing open the window, Chu Qing closed her eyes, and took a deep breath of the slightly humid morning air. That wonderful feeling made her sigh in her heart: It's so good to be alive. .

After calming down the excitement in her heart, she opened her eyes, and her gaze inadvertently fell on a bronze mirror under the window sill.With just one glance, she was amazed by the blurred figure in the mirror.

"God, treat me well." Chu Qing murmured slightly with a curved mouth.

The strength under her feet made Chu Qing eagerly look at the sky on the courtyard outside the window, and she suddenly had a feeling of wanting to run.This feeling is very strong, very strong...

Anning City is the largest city at the southern end of Southern Chu, and it is also an important traffic route. Many business travelers traveling from south to north must pass through here, so this city has become more and more prosperous and lively.

Therefore, it has another layer of glory, Nandu.

That is to say, there is the royal palace and Liyuan in Anning City.This is the place where the Southern Chu royal family will appear. Although it is not said that there will be royal relatives and relatives going to Anning City for summer vacation every year, it is better than some places where it is difficult to see the power of the heavenly family in a lifetime.

In Anning City, the squares and markets are arranged in a patchwork order, and the goods are also sold in a centralized manner. Chu Qing, who came to the street for the first time in a maid costume, couldn't help but admire in his heart that this ancient man also has talents who understand urban planning.

"Miss, wait for your servant." Ming Liu pushed aside the crowd and squeezed to Chu Qing's side, carefully guarding against people around who would recklessly bump into her young lady.

Seeing this, Chu Qing shook her head and smiled lightly: "You must be too nervous. I am afraid that everyone will avoid me now, so why would you deliberately approach me?" She then pointed at her blacked-out face. Face.

Mingliu said unconvinced: "That's not necessarily the case. The young lady is very beautiful and beautiful. How can a little ashes cover it up?"

The corner of Chu Qing's mouth twitched slightly, and he stopped arguing with this stubborn little girl.It's the bottom of the pot, that's right, but now not only does her complexion become dull and rough, but she also deliberately uses thrush charcoal to stipple some freckles on her face. If such a face can still be amazing, she has to admire that people's aesthetics.

Waking up early in the morning, Chu Qing proposed the idea of ​​going to the market, which immediately drew objections from the two girls.Cui Cui was about to go to sue, but after Chu Qing preemptively tied her up and threw her on the bed, she threatened Ming Liu to come out and lead her.

Naturally gifted for doing business, she walked all the way, and a lot of yelling came to her ears, as well as teahouses, restaurants, rouge shops on the street... The sounds of waking up made her very friendly.Strolling in the market, she enjoyed the moment of tranquility and peace of mind that she had traveled through.

She has never been a self-pitying person.She owes others, and she will find a way to pay it back.If someone owes her, she will make that person spit out.But she remembered that once time traveled, there were two men who owed her.Chu Qing smiled like a flower, but no one saw the clear light beating deep in the bottom of her eyes.

"Hehehe... I just said that the daughter of the Chu family is so shameless, that the number one scholar doesn't want her anymore, and she still wants to commit suicide by throwing herself into the lake on the day of her family's great joy. Is this because the number one scholar will feel guilty from now on? ?”

The laughter came suddenly, containing a bit of sarcasm.

Chu Qing stopped in his tracks and followed the prestige. As far as his eyes could see, there were a few commoner women leaning against the wall, basking in the clear sunlight, and gossiping while arranging the hemp silk in their hands.

The laughter continued.

"We don't care about those rich people's affairs. We just feel sorry for Chu Yuanwai, who has been kind and generous all his life, but ended up with such an idiot daughter. It's a pity."

"If I had such a daughter who died before she got married, she would have been sent to the aunt's temple long ago to be out of sight. How could she be allowed to continue to live at home, adding superciliousness and affecting the family's reputation."

"Miss! They're going too far." Ming Liu was already angry when she heard that, if it wasn't for Chu Qing's firm grip on her wrist, she might have rushed up to wrestle with those women who talked badly.

"Let's go." Chu Qing withdrew her eyes lightly, her tone was very calm.

Involuntarily, Chu Qing pulled Ming Liu away, away from the few women who were still going on.

"Miss, why are you still so kind-hearted and not annoyed at all?" Coming to a secluded corner, the master and servant stood under a big poplar tree, Mingliu stomped his feet and said angrily.

She looked at her with eyes as clear as a pool, but said nothing.When she just woke up, she heard the conversation between Mingliu and Cuicui, the content was roughly the same, she wasn't annoyed at the time, so what's the point of being annoyed now?

In the final analysis, Chu Qing still thinks of modern people, and doesn't think it's important to cancel the engagement.She was also glad that she didn't marry that person, otherwise she might be thinking about how to reconcile or divorce now.

Seeing his young lady ignoring him, Mingliu said angrily: "Miss can ignore it, but what should I do in the future? This message spreads far and wide, and it will be impossible for the master and wife to marry young lady far away in the future. Is it possible that the young lady wants Marry a widower or become someone else's concubine?" She grew up with Chu Qing, who was kind and treated her like a sister, and Li Shi was always kind to her servants, and over time she developed a quick mouth like a little girl. Fortunately, her heart is always towards Chu Qing.

Ming Liu's words reminded the silent Chu Qing that she is no longer Li Ge, but an ancient person.In this era, women are subject to many constraints, and marriage is one of them.She didn't care about it herself, but since she used her body, it was only natural to help her predecessor Chu clean up the rumors.

Chu Qing's distinct black and white phoenix eyes were full of light, making her 'ordinary' appearance look extraordinary.Suddenly, she stopped Ming Liu's chatter: "Ming Liu, why are those men's faces covered with rouge and gouache?"
