Chapter 123 Too much trash
Chapter 123 Too much trash
Thinking about his past life, Zhou Lingge could hardly suppress the hatred and resentment that was surging wildly in his body.
Her eyes were bloodshot.
She just stared at Zhou Shiya.
She couldn't wait.
She wanted to trample Zhou Shiya under her feet. She wanted to let her taste the pain and despair she had once experienced.
Zhou Shiya's eyes trembled slightly.
She looked up at Zhou Lingge suspiciously: "Do you still remember that steamed bun from back then? I thought you had completely forgotten it after entering the palace."
For no reason, he sentimentalized her and mentioned the kindness she had shown him in the past.
Zhou Lingge's change in attitude is really too strange.
This forced Zhou Shiya to be on guard.
She wanted to see what Zhou Lingge wanted to do.
Zhou Lingge curled her lips and smiled quietly, "How could I have forgotten? If it weren't for my elder sister's pity, I would have died with my aunt long ago... When I was a child, I received a lot of care and concern from my elder sister."
Madam Zhou bore a grudge against her biological mother. She was polite and tolerant to her on the surface, but secretly ordered the servants to not only withhold her food and expenses, but also to torture her in every possible way, hoping to grind her to death bit by bit.
When she was six years old, she caught a severe cold and was nearly dead. The servants who attended to her refused to call a doctor and left her covered with a thin, drafty blanket. The house she lived in was completely leaky.
She was burning all over and lying on the bed dying, but they refused to give her even a sip of water.
At that time, she thought desperately that even if she didn't die of illness, she would starve to death.
Just when she was about to die.
Eleven-year-old Zhou Shiya accidentally broke into the dark and damp room where she was while walking her dog.
At that time, Zhou Shiya was simple, kind and gentle. She asked a doctor to come over without telling Mrs. Zhou, and asked the servants around her to feed her warm and soft steamed buns every day.
Later she got through it, and she always remembered Zhou Shiya's life-saving grace in her heart.
During those years in the Zhou family, the rare warmth and care she received was all given to her by Zhou Shiya.
She trusted Zhou Shiya and truly respected and relied on her as her elder sister. So, in her previous life, she believed everything Zhou Shiya said. She felt that since Zhou Shiya had saved her life, she must have some sisterly affection for her. Since they were sisters, how could Zhou Shiya harm her?
Haha... children who lack love are very eager for care and warmth from others.
Little did she know that from the very beginning, Zhou Shiya had used family affection as a knife to control the path of her entire life.
Zhou Lingge collected her thoughts, her eyes full of grievance.
"In fact, the reason why I have been arguing with you these days is because I am really angry at you for using me as a tool and sending me to your majesty's bed."
"If elder sister can tell me the truth, I may willingly enter the palace for your sake, to secure your favor and thus consolidate the position of my Zhou family in the Jin Dynasty."
Zhou Shiya's eyes were full of surprise, and she looked at Zhou Lingge in disbelief.
She didn't believe that this was something Zhou Lingge could say.
Ever since she entered the palace, she has been full of hatred towards her... She has long forgotten the kindness she showed her when she saved her life.
Now, Zhou Lingge actually took the initiative to lower his posture to her. For a moment, she couldn't understand Zhou Lingge's methods and means.
No matter how she asked afterwards, Zhou Lingge always acted as if he was sharing the Zhou family's honor and disgrace.
Zhou Shiya couldn't get any useful information, so she returned to Fengluan Palace worriedly.
Along the way, she didn't figure out the reason behind Zhou Lingge's abnormal behavior tonight.
However, no matter what Zhou Lingge’s purpose is.
She will no longer be tolerant of her.
She had only tried it out before, but from today onwards, she would show no mercy.
There was a cold light flashing in Zhou Shiya's eyes.
When she was about to reach the gate of Fengluan Palace, Concubine Rou had been waiting for a long time.
Zhou Shiya narrowed her eyes slightly and asked all the outsiders to leave.
Concubine Rou bent her knees and fell to the ground with a thud. "Your Majesty, today's events were planned perfectly, but Imperial Concubine Yu...she's too clever. She saw through everything the moment she was careful."
Zhou Shiya's eyes were full of contempt: "Don't you mean that you are too useless?"
"Roupin... I don't keep useless trash around me. If you disappoint me again..."
Concubine Rou's face turned pale, and she kowtowed quickly: "Please, Queen, give me one more chance to make amends. Next time, I will definitely not let you down again."
Zhou Shiya curled her lips and smiled, gently helping Concubine Rou to her feet. "You were able to get out of this incident smoothly, which is indeed your ability. However, I believe you know better than anyone what I want. So, Concubine Rou...you should know what to do next, right?"
As she spoke, she turned her head and glanced at Nanny Zhou.
Nanny Zhou took out a porcelain bottle from her bosom and handed it to Concubine Rou.
Concubine Rou was startled and took the porcelain bottle in a daze.
"this is……"
Zhou Shiya moved closer to Concubine Rou. She raised her hand and gently tidied up her messy hair. "You're so smart, you should be able to guess it."
"Go."
Concubine Rou's body trembled suddenly, her eyes full of fear: "Your Majesty. This concubine..."
The smile on Zhou Shiya's lips immediately disappeared. She looked at Concubine Rou with cold eyes: "Why, you don't want to?"
Roupin's heart suddenly trembled, and she quickly shook her head: "Yes... yes."
Zhou Shiya chuckled.
She raised her fingers and gently patted Roupin's cheek.
"Roupin, if it weren't for me, you would have long since become a pile of bones. Your father wouldn't have gotten such a lucrative job, and your mother wouldn't have lived a carefree and prosperous life."
"You must understand that everything you have was given to you by me. If you disobey me, I will take back everything I have given you."
Concubine Rou couldn't help but tremble slightly, her eyes reddened, and she bit her lip and slowly knelt down: "Yes, I will follow your instructions."
Zhou Shiya's eyes were full of indifference.
"Remember to take the time to tell Li Cheng that her value is not over yet, and I still need her."
Roupin's knees pressed against the sharp stone slabs, and she trembled with pain.
She bowed her head and said, "Yes, I will definitely pass on the message."
Zhou Shiya patted the non-existent dust on the back of her hand and said, "Go away. If you mess things up again, you'll have to bear the consequences yourself."
Concubine Rou kowtowed and left cautiously.
Zhou Shiya stood under the eaves of the palace, squinting her eyes and staring at the departing figure of Concubine Rou.
She has kept these chess pieces for many years, and they must be useful somewhere.
Zhou Lingge...their battle has just begun.
She will not give in easily, and will not let her take away everything that belongs to her.
