the next day.

Ye Ling hosted a farewell banquet to send Xiao Yuan off from the palace.

When the Sparrow Consort appeared at the banquet with a face as white as jade.

Many people were stunned!

The Sparrow Consort also adopted a "look at me, I'm so beautiful" attitude.

He wished he could embed other people's eyes directly into his own face, scrutinizing them for 12 hours a day.

Dong Zhaoyi muttered a complaint to Zhao Jieyu in a low voice, clearly annoyed.

"Sister, look at Consort Que's face, how did it suddenly get better?"

"Who knows? Maybe there's some secret recipe involved."

"And Zhou Yingying's face is all better now. It was swollen like a pig's head a few days ago! Sister, I think there's definitely more to this than meets the eye."

"That stray cat wasn't strong enough; it didn't even manage to scratch her to death with one claw!"

Xu Qingzhi said deliberately.

"My sister's face has improved. It looks even fairer than when I first saw her."

"But what effective scar removal medicine do you use? Why don't you recommend it to all the ladies?"

Are you kidding me!

This is a treasure.

Of course, I can only enjoy it by myself.

What kind of class do you have that you're worthy of sharing unique skincare products with me?

Isn't this tantamount to giving all the favor to your rival?

"That's what the Sparrow Consort said deliberately."

"I did not use any ointment; everything healed on its own."

"Perhaps it's because I have naturally good skin; no matter what I do, it won't leave any scars."

"This skill, which I was born with, is something I really cannot share with my sisters."

The scene of the Sparrow Queen at Versailles.

This further enraged the concubines who were already dissatisfied with her.

Consort Dong whispered to Consort Zhao.

"Sister, look at what Consort Que said. Every word she uttered was showing off, as if she were a fairy descended from heaven."

Zhao Jieyu: "Zhou Yingying's face has miraculously recovered; there must be a secret behind this."

Xu Qingzhi smiled.

"Then I truly envy my sister's natural beauty."

Um.

Seven days later.

You'll then understand what it means to be worse than dead.

Ye Ling: "Yesterday, I received news that Princess Hewen had arrived safely in the Great Xiongnu Kingdom."

"Princess Hewen has always lived in the Central Plains, and her lifestyle on the grasslands is different. I hope that Envoy Xiao will help her out when he returns."

"Help her adapt as quickly as possible and become a good queen consort."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

...

Great Hungary.

On the day of the wedding.

Qin Ran saw the old man whose face was covered with age spots.

I almost threw up!

At this age, they're all fucking impotent, right?

There are so many women on this grassland who dream of marrying him.

What's the point?

Is he too old?

Does he not shower?

Why did he smell so bad, like an old man?

Although Xiao Mu's physical strength is not as good as it was when he was young.

When it comes to playing tricks, he's a pro.

Qin Ran spent the whole night being tossed around by various tools.

The next day, I simply couldn't sit up.

He could only lie on the bed.

Xiao Mu told her.

There are many more tricks waiting for her.

Qin Ran clenched his fists secretly.

This is a life that's neither human nor ghost.

It was all brought to her by the Great Yuan Kingdom!

She wants revenge!

We must destroy the Great Yuan Dynasty!

If possible!

She could even become the queen of this grassland!

Ideals may be lofty, but whether reality is harsh depends on the right timing, location, and people.

Qin Ran began to feign compliance with Xiao Mu.

From a disobedient little wolfhound at the beginning.

He turned into that obedient and unconditionally cooperative little puppy.

Xiao Mu was very satisfied with her.

From initial wariness to later enjoying spending every evening with her.

...

Seven days later.

When Consort Que got up early in the morning, she looked in the mirror as usual, admiring her stunning beauty.

Suddenly I saw a terrifying face!

There's not a single good spot on my face!

The spot where the cat had originally scratched me.

It started to fester and bleed.

A sharp pain came over me.

The Sparrow Princess screamed!

"ah!"

"Quickly, summon the imperial physician!"

The palace maids were also frightened when they saw the Sparrow Consort's appearance!

Only Zhou stood there, watching indifferently.

"How could my face have become like this?!"

Suddenly, the Sparrow Consort thought of something!

They immediately turned their attention to Zhou Daying!

Pointing at her, he questioned her!

"It's you! It's you who made me like this!"

Zhou responded calmly.

"Where did Your Majesty get that question?"

"I became like this because I used the ointment you gave me. How could you not have deliberately framed me?!"

"Your Majesty, you are wronging this servant!"

"That ointment, this servant used it in front of Your Highness!"

"If there's something wrong with the ointment, then why is this servant's face still perfectly fine?"

"Yes, why?! Why are you alright?!"

Zhou shrugged.

"Perhaps it's because we have different constitutions. Your Majesty comes from the grasslands, so maybe you're allergic to some ingredient in this ointment?"

"You can't blame me for that. I didn't know Your Highness might be allergic."

"You, you—"

Consort Que was so angry that she fainted on the spot.

Zhou agreed with a cold laugh.

"She fainted from anger so easily? This grassland princess's mental fortitude isn't that great!"

After examining Consort Que, Physician Chang said helplessly to Ye Ling.

"Your Majesty, the Empress may have been poisoned."

"There's no way to cure this face."

Poisoning is good!

Hurry up and shut it up.
