132 Imperial Marriage (1/2)
”Young Miss, please drink some medicine.”
A maid wearing a yellow dress carried a small porcelain bowl and placed it in front of XuanFei.
*clank!*
XuanFei's eyes sharpened. She raised her right hand and slapped the porcelain bowl away from her face. The porcelain bowl fell on the ground and broke.
”LEAVE.”
The maid shivered when XuanFei was filled with murderous aura.
”Y-Young Miss… Fu-Furen ordered this servant to serve Y-Young Miss with this m-medicine in order for Young Miss to r-recuperate fast.”
”LEAVE.”
”Y-Young Miss----”
”I SAID LEAVE!!”
XuanFei screamed. She pulled her jade pillow and threw it on the maid's face. The jade pillow slammed on the maid's face, creating a bloody scene. Her nose was broken and bleeding.
”AHHH!!”
The maid screamed due to pain. She felt dizzy and lightheaded while her nose and face were in pain.
”SOMEONE COME! DRAG THIS DISPICABLE SERVANT AND BEAT HER TO DEATH!”
Looking at the poor maid who was sprawling on the floor, bleeding and beaten, XuanFei did not feel any sympathy towards her. Instead, she wished she could stand up and beat the poor maid to death in order to release the anger inside her heart.
When the poor maid heard XuanFei's order, she forcefully dragged herself towards XuanFei's bed and kneeled in front of her. Even when her face was in pain and her nose was bleeding, she still lowered her head and kowtowed repeatedly on the cold floor, asking forgiveness.
”Young Miss, please forgive this servant!! Please forgive this servant!! Young Miss, this servant is begging for Young Miss' mercy! Please spare this servant's life!!”
The poor maid was shaking as she slammed her head on the floor's flat surface. She would rather have her face disfigured for a lifetime than die an ugly death.
Unfortunately, no matter what the maid said, XuanFei's heart did not have any ounce of pity in her heart. When two strong mama came, pulling the poor maid who was crying for mercy, XuanFei's waved her hand.
”Put something on her mouth. So loud.”
When the two mama left, dragging the poor maid with them, XuanFei was left alone inside her room.
She recalled what happened two days after the banquet, XuanFei felt that her heart was being sliced bit by bit.
'After the imperial physician entered the room, XuanFei fainted. When she woke up, a day had already passed and she was already lying on her bed inside her own courtyard. Her mother was sitting beside her, holding her hand.
Looking at the worried face of her mother, the first think she asked was, ”How's my child?”
XuanFei could not forget the facial expression of her mother when she uttered that question. It was full of pity. When her mother gripped her hand tighter, XuanFei felt a huge urge of hate towards Xiao Lou. She could not forget the words her mother said to her before she fainted. 'Mother knows you wanted to keep this tiny life… but mother will tell you frankly. You cannot keep it.. You are not allowed to keep it..'
XuanFei never thought that her mother, who loved her dearly, would not even hesitate to kill her own grandchild with any second thought!
For what?
Because she was afraid that her child would destroy the reputation of the Prime Minister's residence and the Imperial Family?!
'Ha… How funny…' XuanFei laughed towards herself.
XuanFei pulled her hand away from Xiao Lou's grasp. Sensing the hatred coming from XuanFei, Xiao Lou sighed but she did grab XuanFei's hand and let her move away from her.
Xiao Lou knew that XuanFei was grieving for the loss of her child.
”Fei'er ah… Mother knows what you are going through… but----”
