Chapter 147.1 - Beauty Qiao Mei

Second sponsored chapter tonight thanks to Dillycat
 

She’s just a stepping stone for imperial consort Ruan. Without her, imperial consort Ruan can still find other people. Xiahou Qing’s stuck a lot of people in the palace over these few years, more than you can even imagine.”

“But master, what are we going to do now?” We weren’t just going to let the old emperor take master in as a consort, right?

“It’s not that there isn’t a way.” Lou Qingwu languidly stood up and walked over to the window.

She used a golden hairpin to poke at the candle flame as the candle flame leapt up, “The emperor might not like my appearance. The types that he likes are like consort Ying, that next door neighbour type of pitiful beauty. But if consort Ying’s so desperate to play matchmaker for the old emperor, how could we disappoint her?”

“Master, what are we going to do then?” Thousand Face’s face instantly lit up.

“Tell Qiao Mei that she’s been waiting for a while, so she can &h.e.l.lip; start to move.” Lou Qingwu’s lips curled up as she looked up at the darkened sky.

She mumbled, “The sky’s changing.”

“En?” Thousand Face froze.

Qiao Mei?

His mind flashed to that girl with a ruined face all those years ago.

Now, she’d changed her face to something that even he didn’t recognise. He could slightly remember that young girl’s face before thinking for a bit, his heart suddenly stopping, did master really want to &h.e.l.lip;.

Once he thought it through, Thousand Face nodded, “Yes, this subordinate will notify Qiao Mei.”

The sky darkened as the dim stars shone.

In the room of a small palace maidservant, inside Liuhua Palace, a messenger pigeon flapped its wings against a window.

A hand stretched outwards and grabbed it.

The girl’s hand was white and delicate, like jade, without any imperfections.

As your eye moved upwards, you would see a downward facing small face, eyes that looked timid because they were forever looking down.

But as she looked up, her watery eyes were cold, her aura instantly becoming much more n.o.ble and dignified, not the least timid.

She slowly tugged at the letter tied to the pigeon’s leg and opened it.

As her eyes fell on the word “move”, her mouth slowly turned into a smile.

But that smile was too vicious and bleak, making her white lily-like face fierce.

She slowly let go, before unable to help but walk towards the vanity.

She touched her face that was slightly familiar yet unfamiliar as she laughed, in a creaking voice that sounded ghost like.

She stared at the face in the mirror before slowly reaching towards the mirror.

Finally &h.e.l.lip; she was about to move.

The next day, at dawn.

The first rays of the sun spread out to the outside of Liuhua palace, lightly covering everything it touched in gold.

The emperor’s personal eunuchs and maidservants waited on him as they helped him prepare to wear his dragon robes to go to the early morning court.

As he waited for them to prepare, he turned around to look at the reclining consort Ying, walking over to rub her tender and soft face, “Ying’er’s going to sleep for a bit?”

“Your concubine will wait for the emperor.”

The emperor laughed, “Okay, when this emperor finishes court, I’ll come and eat breakfast with you.”

“En.” Consort Ying’s face had a bashful smile a.s.s he slightly leaned into the emperor’s embrace as the two people began to grow intimate with each other, as if no one else was there.

When it was nearly time, the emperor’s face coldened as he stepped out of the palace.

But just as he turned a corner, he hadn’t even left Liuhua palace before a small little figure accidentally b.u.mped into him.

The emperor reflexively stepped back, his dragon eyes dangerously narrowing.

The palace maidservant was frightened, quickly peeking at the emperor before instantly dropping to her knees, so scared that she was trembling.

She keep bowing to the ground with her head, non stop, “Emperor, please spare me! Emperor, please spare me! This servant didn’t do it on purpose, emperor, please spare me!”

The emperor’s personal eunuch, Eunuch Li, took a look at the palace maidservant, his eyes vicious.

He waved to a eunuch by his side before the eunuch was about to drag her away.

It was at this time, that the emperor, who was frozen from accidentally looking at the maidservant’s face, finally reacted.

“Wait.”

“Emperor?” Eunuch Li bent down, “Does the emperor have any other orders?”

The emperor didn’t reply to him, he just looked dazedly at the palace maidservant who was kneeling in front of him.

His mind flashed back to the image of her shocked and frightened little face, his eyes filled with nostalgia.

“You, lift up your head.”
