refuse to be a concubine

Chapter 2 Pain, spreading all over the body
"Don't—oh!" In my desperate cry, he suddenly covered my mouth with his hand, lowered his body, and entered me heavily without any pity.

For a moment, my mind went blank, I just opened my eyes wide and didn't struggle anymore.

He moves on top of me.

The faint candlelight was reflected on the wall, and the overlapping figure of me and him emerged.

The moment I regained consciousness, I saw him clearly and hated him to the bone.

A man with a solemn and oppressive aura, and a pair of sharp eyes that reject others thousands of miles away.

I can't remember how many times he wanted me. Every time I woke up after passing out, I saw two overlapping people reflected in the candlelight on the wall.

When I opened my eyes again, he was fully dressed, standing by the bed, staring at me with cold and sharp eyes.

The whole body was in unstoppable pain, as if being run over by a wheel.But I didn't care about these, I pulled the quilt to wrap myself in a panic, and my body shivered uncontrollably in the corner.

I wanted to cry, but all that was left was an endless void in my heart.There is nothing to be done under the indistinct resentment.

What should I do now?cry?trouble?Or should I yell?
Only blank.

"Where's Chen Liuer?" He suddenly said, his voice was cool, without any emotion.

I shook my head, subconsciously.

"Did King Min tell you to give me the love potion?"

King Min?love potion?I couldn't understand what he was saying, so I could only shake my head.

"Is this how King Min trained you? Do you have the guts to drug this king and make such an expression of being raped?" His voice sank, revealing the impending anger.

I still shook my head, I listened to every word, but my head was empty, these words disappeared quickly after entering my mind, I didn't know how to respond at all, shaking my head was instinctive.

Am I running away?Escape everything in front of you?
He suddenly approached me, grabbed my shoulder with one hand, and threw me out like that.His body hit the jade screen, and with a bang, the screen shattered.

It was painful again, overwhelming pain, and even moving a finger felt like death.

I wake up a lot.

"You don't know kung fu?" The gloomy voice was full of surprise, and his sharp eyes were full of surprise.

effort?

I curled up and leaned into the corner desperately. I didn't know what he was talking about, and I didn't want to know. I just wanted to leave this place quickly and go home. I missed my mother, I missed my mother so much, and I wanted to be in her arms cry bitterly.

"The Lord is awake?" A faint voice sounded from one side with some respect.

Is there anyone else in the house?I was startled, and when I suddenly raised my head, I suddenly felt a numbness in my shoulders and elbows, and I passed out immediately.

At some point, a man dressed in black and wearing a black scarf appeared in the room, only showing a pair of smiling eyes.

"You know I've been drugged?"

The man in black chuckled and coughed a few times, "Chen Liuer's love potion was too heavy, and the subordinates couldn't deliver the master to Miss Yan in time, so, cough, did the master sleep well? This woman is not Min Wang's people are not from the brothel, and they seem to be here to deliver things to the girls in the brothel. Please rest assured, my lord."

"Damn it, King Min, remember it." That Chen Liu'er belongs to King Min, he came here to find out the truth, the poison won't work on him, so he sees Chen Liu'er poisoning and is very relieved After drinking the wine, he never thought that she would dare to give him a love potion.

"My lord, should I return to Prince Hui's mansion or enter the palace now?"

"Qing Yi, your courage is getting bigger and bigger."

"I don't dare, I'm going to order my servants to prepare hot water for the Lord to cleanse." As soon as the masked man finished speaking, he also disappeared into the room.

After opening the door, the Lord did not look back into the room, and the slender figure disappeared under the gloomy sky.

The stinging pain spread all over my body and forced me to wake up from my lethargy. As soon as I opened my eyes, a slap hit my face, and there was another burst of burning pain on my face.

Chen Liuer stood in front of me with a frosty face. When I saw the thin needle in her hand, my heart trembled, "Miss Liuer, I, I..."

"Bitch, who let you into the room?" Chen Liuer's beautiful face was frighteningly gloomy.It only took her two hours to chase the masked man, but she didn't expect to be taken advantage of by this woman, and everything she planned carefully ended in vain.Thinking of that man's handsome appearance, Chen Liu'er was both jealous and resentful, she waved her hand and stabbed me with a thin needle.

I didn't have any strength to escape at all, so I had to suffer the pain of the needle prick.

Both physically and mentally, indescribably painful, I passed out again.

"Chen Liu'er, if someone dies at this critical moment, it will not be good for us." In the corner, a short man stood gloomy. The darkness in the corner covered most of his figure, and he couldn't be noticed unless he looked carefully.

"I'm not reconciled to letting her go like this."

"You should be lucky."

"What do you mean?"

"If it were you, do you think you are still alive? Look at her, her whole body is covered with bruises, and there is no good skin. He has managed to hit such a heavy hand on a commoner woman, let alone her body. You are the dead man of King Min."

Chen Liuer bit her lower lip with silver teeth, and snorted proudly, "I have my own way to make his heart belong to me."

I thought I was going to die in the best building, but no.

I woke up in a cul-de-sac, an alley full of stinking garbage.

The rain was falling, and the sky was full of thunder, which startled the dragon, and it was impossible to tell what time it was.early morning?afternoon?evening?
The torrential rain hit me, and my tears rolled down like this raindrop.

I want to die.But I can't, I'm not the only one in this world, there is also my mother, who loves me and takes care of me. If I die, what will my mother do?
Walking on the street in a muddy state, under the heavy rain, there were few pedestrians. They all looked at me with strange eyes, some with pity, some with strangeness, some with disgust, and some with sarcasm.I know that I must be miserable now, I can't let my mother see me, she will be sad.

It's too late!
Under the rain, I saw the lonely and fragile figure of my mother, her thin body was only wrapped in a thin garment.

Such a cold day, such freezing rain, how could my mother's body bear it?
I ran over.When I hugged my mother tightly, the umbrella held by my mother fell to the ground.

"Enen, I'm sorry, mother." After saying this, mother slid down softly.

With my disheveled appearance, anyone can guess what happened.

For three consecutive days, Niang's high fever persisted.

I didn't care about the pain in my body, and I didn't even have time to be sad. I searched for doctors everywhere behind my mother's back, and spent all the valuable things.

In the end, my mother went.

"Enen, I must live on, and live happily." This is what my mother said to me before she died. She grabbed me with her cold hand and forced me to nod before closing my eyes in peace.

Mother understands me, she knows that I will follow her once she leaves, so she forced me to agree.

A broken mat and a handful of loess are the destination of the mother after death.

My heart was broken, and I guarded my mother's grave, and I just passed my mother's first seven days like this.

Xiaowang Tea House is one of the best tea houses in the capital. There are a lot of people here every day, and the business is surprisingly good.

"You're a girl, what do you do to reveal people's notices? We're looking for a guy, a man."

"Shopkeeper, I really can do everything, cleaning, chopping firewood, carrying water, I can do what a man can do." I begged beside the shopkeeper with a cloth bag on my back, "You can just use me." After guarding my mother's first seven days, I woke up from my depression, I couldn't go on like this anymore, I promised my mother to live and live happily, and I couldn't let my mother worry about me even after death.

In order to see a doctor for my mother, I spent all the valuable things. In order to make a living, I had to find a job.After searching for several days, no shop wanted me.

I haven't eaten for two days. If this continues, I'm afraid I will starve to death on the street.

"How can you do things with your body? Don't come here to harm us. If you accidentally die in our teahouse, you will be sued. Walk around, why don't you hurry up?"

I was kicked out of the teahouse.

The streets of the capital are very prosperous, bustling with people coming and going.But I didn't know where to go, and my body and mind were unprecedentedly lonely.

"The new emperor ascends the throne, amnesty to the world."

The sound of gongs accompanied the shouts from far to near, "Prisoners who have been detained for less than three years will be released home immediately, those who have been detained for more than three years will have their sentence reduced by half, and those who have been sentenced to death will be pardoned—"

"Tax relief for one year, halved within five years—"

The once lively street was now even more noisy.

"That's great, the tax will be reduced for one year, and it will be halved within five years." The people are jubilant, rushing to tell.

"I didn't expect King Hui to think about the common people as soon as he became emperor, reducing and exempting taxes, Mingjun."

"Our Yan Dynasty will usher in another prosperous autumn."

"Was King Hui the one who became emperor? Shouldn't it be the sixth prince?"
"You are not from this dynasty, are you? That happened in the past. Since the sixth and eighth princes headed by King Min were rumored to have committed adultery with foreign enemies, after it was verified that it was true, the late Emperor was furious and imprisoned the two of them together with their families for life. Unexpectedly, half a month later, it was discovered that the fifth prince, King Le, was secretly training soldiers and horses on Brown Mountain, a hundred miles away from Qingcheng. There is not much explosives in the palace, but tens of thousands of tons were found. When the first emperor heard the news, he was so angry that he vomited blood and passed out, and soon died of illness.

"Oh, how do you know such details?"

"That's what storytellers say."

Listening to these excited voices around me, I feel even more lonely, if only my mother is still alive.When I think of my mother, I can't help feeling sad again.

"Yeah—" Suddenly, he was hit by a man rushing out from behind, staggered and fell to the ground.

"Don't you have long eyes?" The man cursed and disappeared into the crowd.

I got up, brushed off the dust on my body, stared blankly at the jubilant crowd on the street for a while, and silently entered the alley on one side.

The street is very lively, but I can't feel it, and I can't blend in.Only take quiet paths.

The night came quietly, and the cold wind in the winter night was so cold that my ears seemed to fall off.

I curled up my thin body in an old tree with a big withered hole to keep warm, so as to avoid the howling wind.

The stars above the head are bright and transparent, and the moonlight is cold, just like the feeling of this winter, without the slightest warmth.

will i freeze to deathOr starve to death?
Shaking my head, I murmured: "No, I will look for it tomorrow, and I will definitely find a job, I will definitely. I want to live a good life, I promised my mother that I will live happily, and I must not accept my fate."

"I don't want to be a maid in the palace, cousin, let's run away." A soft cry came from outside the tree, "After entering the palace, I can't come out until I'm 26, ten years, I don't want to be separated from you for ten years. "

"If we escape, what will our parents do? Your father had to ask someone to take care of you in the palace so that you can enter the palace and become a palace maid." The man's voice was full of hesitation.

"I can't control that much," the woman cried, "Don't say ten years, even two years, my aunt will force you to marry a wife and have children in these two years. Cousin, if you really like me, you can marry me." Fly far away."

"This?" The man hesitated.

"Don't you like me anymore?" The woman asked anxiously, "I, I gave you my whole body, you?"

"Okay, let's go far away." The man seemed to have made up his mind.

"After those two hours, I will wait for you outside the city."

"it is good."

They are so happy.

Listening to the conversation between the two outside the tree, I am very envious.What a blessing to have someone by your side.And I can only live alone.

I curled up tightly into a ball.

Suddenly, there was a pain in my head, as if something had hit my head.I heard the man outside the tree say: "What did you throw?"

"It's a sign to enter the palace. Since we are going to fly away, what do I need it for?"

The sound of their footsteps gradually faded away.

I rubbed my painful head, hugged the cloth bag in my arms, and gradually fell asleep.

The crisp bird chirping hovered above my head, waking me up from my deep sleep.

The sun is shining brightly, and it is warm on the body. Today is a good day.

I walked out of the dead tree, moved my tingling limbs, took a deep breath towards the rising sun, and thought about where to find an errand today. What, I took it out and saw that it was a small rectangular piece of wood. The whole piece of wood was completely black, and under the sunlight, it was so black that it was transparent. The word "pass" was engraved in the middle of the piece.

"What is this?" I didn't have such a thing. When I was wondering where it came from, I remembered the conversation between the two of them last night, and asked in surprise, "Could it be a waist card from the palace?"
