The fifth wife wants to escape marriage: marry the princess

Chapter 122 Taking My Wife 1
It has been a few days since Wushuang woke up from the coma, the wound on his body has been treated, it doesn't hurt, but his head is very dazed.

She woke up in a strange room, but her consciousness stayed in Xiao Junyi's arms at the moment. At this moment, when she opened her eyes, there was nothing, and she remembered that she was not Mrs. Xiao anymore, she was just an identity A lowly servant girl.

Sitting up with force, the room is very tidy but the color is monotonous, and it looks very simple. If you guessed correctly, this is the palace maid's residence.

"woke up?"

Suddenly there was a sound, and Wushuang turned her head, only to see a thin old nanny with a slightly mean appearance, she said, "I'm the manager here, Nanny Cai, from now on, you will be under my care."

Without half a word of concern, everything sounds so cold.

Wushuang nodded, knowing it.

"If you hear my words, you must answer them!"

Cai Momo suddenly roared, Wushuang replied, "I see."

"You must be called a servant girl!" Cai Momo dictated, "You still think you are some kind of princess, here, you are the lowest maidservant, you wake up when you wake up, and you still expect someone to serve you!"

These nuns and maids are usually angry with the master, but now a master who is in trouble comes, so naturally they are all angry at her, without the slightest bit of good looks.

Wushuang just woke up, her head was still in a daze, she just got twisted up by Nanny Cai, she put a gray singlet on her body and it was fine, she didn't have any cotton clothes to keep out the cold.

She suddenly thought of the velvet fur coat that Xiao Junyi accompanied her to the silk and satin village to order a few days ago, but now, she might never have the chance to wear it again.

"What are you doing in a daze, let's go. You haven't been assigned by the superior yet, so let's do some idle things for now!" Cai Nanny said, leading her into the yard, where there were more than ten people standing side by side on both sides of the long sink. Famous court ladies, they were washing their clothes in the winter.

Wushuang stood there, and they didn't respond, they were still doing what they were doing.

This was the beginning of Wushuang's career as a court lady. She was not assigned to the Clothes Bureau, but she was not assigned to other places either. Naturally, such a person with no land would not be trapped.

Today's task is to do laundry, but she doesn't know what tomorrow will be.She just regretted waking up too early. If she just fell asleep like this, wouldn't she have to wash her clothes?
Nanny Cai led her to the pool, gave her some pointers, and then left.

Wushuang stared at the icy water for a while, but didn't dare to make a move.She was not used to the winter in Kyoto, not to mention it had just snowed, and now it was freezing cold.She is more afraid of the cold than the people in Kyoto, and she never dips in cold water on weekdays, and now she has to wash clothes, which is something she has never thought about.

"Why are you standing there, wash it quickly, I still think you are a princess!" Cai Momo came over, grabbed her hands and pressed them into the water suddenly, the biting cold immediately rushed up, and the bones of her fingers were pricked by needles generally.

"Hurry up, everyone has their own job, don't think that someone will do the laundry for you!" Cai Mama said, and put a basket of clothes by her hand. She looked at the tall pile of clothes. Scared.

Wushuang turned to look at other people's baskets. The clothes in them were not as tall as hers, and she couldn't help asking, "Why are there so many of mine?!"

"Didn't I teach you to call yourself a slave!" Cai Momo held her hand in the water and took the opportunity to pinch her as punishment, and said, "Hurry up and wash, you are not allowed to eat until you finish washing! You are just a lowly maid , still pretending to be a young lady!"

As he spoke, he took out his own hand, wiped off the water with a silk handkerchief, and yelled at the rest of the people, "Be quicker, let me take advantage of this sunny day to dry it and send it to all kinds of empresses."

"Yes." After everyone answered, they stopped talking because of the sound of water splashing.

Wushuang's hands turned red immediately after being in the water, those old wounds hadn't healed yet, now they were placed in the soapy water, and they stinged unceasingly.However, there was no clean water for her to rinse.

Staring at the clothes for a while, the maids around him were like puppets, who only knew how to work mechanically. After Wushuang tried to talk to the maid beside him but failed, he finally sighed softly, and honestly started washing the clothes .

Madam Cai is right, she is just a lowly maidservant, why is she so pretentious?
Wushuang's hands were frozen, and she just repeated the action of rubbing the clothes numbly. She didn't care if they were washed or not, she just wanted to wash one thing and one less.

Anyway, the hand has no feeling at all, and I don't know what is cold and what is pain.She lowered her head and looked at her clothes and shoes. She grew up so big, even when she was a book boy fourteen, she was never so shabby. Is the life of a court lady really so hard?Or was Nanny Cai trying to trick her on purpose?

Wushuang didn't know that the water here was getting shallower, but he suddenly felt that this was his own retribution?She pretended to be a servant in Prince Heng's mansion, and this time it was fine, so she decided to let her truly become a servant, and see if she dared to lie to others in the future.

Compared with the life of this court lady, being a book boy fourteen enjoys a lot of blessings. There is no work every day, it is purely to play with King Heng.At that time, I still felt aggrieved, and now I presumably, that day was simply in heaven.

The cold wind was blowing, my cheeks were tingling, I couldn’t feel my hands soaked in the water, and gradually, I couldn’t think about anything, I just wanted to finish washing quickly, and I didn’t eat anything when I woke up. One morning, I was so hungry.

Seeing that the other maids had finished washing and eating, Wushuang was still rubbing. Hearing the sound of their chatting and eating, Wushuang felt even more lonely all by herself. She turned to look at them, but saw a maid saying that the wind was strong, and there was a "pop" Close the door.

If it was left in the past, it is estimated that he would have lost his temper long ago.However, she also clearly knew that in the past, she was supported by someone, either Lian Sheng or Xiao Junyi.

But now, what does she have?
Nothing at all.

When the emperor abolished the relationship between their husband and wife, his heart felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and he completely lost consciousness.All the edges, corners and sharpness have been polished away in this capital, she dare not be as careless as she was back then, if she is not careful, she can really bring about a fatal disaster.

In her heart, the emperor is no longer so lofty and respected, and sometimes she even thinks he deserves it!It's right that Concubine Lan doesn't love him. Such a man who is used to holding everything in the palm of his hand, who is used to "those who follow me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish", has never really let go of his body, to do one thing properly, to be good love someone.

The water splashed out, wet the uppers of the shoes, and Wushuang stomped her feet in the cold. She wanted to tell Nanny Cai to move the clothes to the house for washing, but it was obviously impossible. Nanny Cai's face was scarier than her. Even her family is fierce.

Feeling that someone was watching her, Wushuang turned her head subconsciously, only to see Xiao Xuanyu coming at some time, less than a foot away from her.

He saw her distress again, Wushuang wanted to go back to the house to hide, but after all, she didn't, she continued to wash the clothes, as if venting, stirring up the water.

Xiao Xuanyu didn't open his mouth either, just watched Wushuang wash clothes from a distance, it was freezing cold, he knew that she was afraid of the cold, but what could he say under the emperor's order?Can I keep her from washing?What's more, he also has annoyance and resentment in his heart!

Washing too hard, rubbing the skin of the hands, Wu Shuang stopped his hands in pain, Xiao Xuanyu said, "Why bother?"

Wushuang ignored him.

Xiao Xuanyu said, "Xiao Junyi can't protect himself, let alone protect you, why bother to cling to him!"

"This is not something the prince is qualified to ask about."

"fourteen……"

"I'm not fourteen!" Wushuang interrupted.

"Then I'll call you Wushuang from now on."

"There is no need to meet in the future, you are the prince, and I am just a slave. Please leave quickly, and don't delay the servant's laundry."

"Actually, this king wants you to become fourteen, and asked your father to go to Hengwang's mansion as an errand, but this is too troublesome, and I'm afraid it won't work. So, I decided to let you go to the Queen Mother first, and temporarily work in Kangshou Palace. Someone is taking care of you."

He paved the way for her, but Wushuang didn't appreciate it, "Thank you, my lord, but I don't want to go to Kangshou Palace."

"Isn't it better than washing clothes here?" Xiao Xuanyu was a little annoyed, did she know how many good things he said that the Queen Mother was willing to take her in.

Wushuang smiled wryly, "At least it's safe here. I don't have to think about anything except washing clothes, and I don't have to worry about whether I will be used today or whether I will hurt others again."

"No one is using you, so don't think that you are of much use value." Xiao Xuanyu said with some anger.

"Then why bother your lord? Since I'm useless to you, why bother to help me." Wushuang didn't appreciate it, Xiao Xuanyu couldn't force it, and suddenly felt helpless, "I know that there have been many misunderstandings between us, but all my original intentions are not I want to hurt you. As long as you are willing, I have a way to get you out of the palace and set you free."

"Freedom? From here to Hengwang Mansion, it's just a change of place, and there is no freedom at all." Wushuang lowered her head, looking at the red hands in the water, "My lord, there is no misunderstanding between us, everything is just Sooner or later, now that it has been exposed, I feel at ease, I don’t have to worry about it every day, and I have to thank you, my lord!”

She looked back and smiled at him, but she couldn't tell whether she still had any complaints in her heart.

All these turmoil had nothing to do with her, nor was it aimed at her, but she unfortunately experienced all of this.

"Where's your bracelet?" Xiao Xuanyu suddenly noticed that her wrist was bare.

"Such a valuable thing, the servant can't afford it, and if I don't bring it with me now, I will return it to you in the future."

"If I give it to you, don't give it back to me." He said domineeringly, "And, I believe, one day, you will be willing to take it with you. Definitely!"

Wushuang smiled and said nothing, she knew that there would never be such a day, forever!

Ever since he took in Mu Sisi and pretended to go to the Northwest to investigate her, there was nothing to talk about between them. What's more, now, because of him, her marriage with Xiao Junyi has also come to an end.

In the past, he tried everything possible not to marry her, and gave her to Xiao Junyi.Now, they are also doing everything possible to bring down Xiao Junyi and annul their marriage.

So toss, what is it for?

"Fourteen, you are free now, you can think about your future carefully, do you really want to wash clothes for a lifetime?" Xiao Xuanyu said, "I know you have resentment, hatred and annoyance in your heart, but, no matter what you think I, I still want you by my side."

"impossible!"

"Nothing is impossible, I am willing to wait, until we settle down, until you accept me. I am not forcing you, I just want to tell you, whenever you have figured it out and are willing, please let me know, In this life, I will not let you down. Xiao Junyi can't protect you well, but I can!"

Wushuang blurted out, "I am Xiao Junyi's wife, don't you think it's too much for you to tell me this?"

"You forgot, you are no longer."

Wushuang paused suddenly, why did she keep forgetting that she was no longer Xiao Junyi's wife, she was no longer Mrs. Xiao!
"Why me? You are the prince, what kind of girl do you want, why..." Wu Shuang was a little helpless, why was such a gentle and watery person so terribly persistent?Because she lied to him once, he was going to pester her all over.
