The mercenary queen was bound by a system and transmigrated to the Great Zhou Dynasty, becoming the Prime Minister's fake young miss. She originally wanted to enjoy a comfortable retirement, bu...
"Hey, Dujuan, have you heard? This girl is a fake daughter. She was swapped as soon as she was born. She lived for sixteen months in a rich family. The real daughter came back to recognize her relatives, but was driven back."
"Oh, really?" said another maid.
"How could this be false? When Manager Qian went to pick someone up, my brother was the coachman and followed them. My brother said it himself." Dujuan's maid explained.
Another maidservant said: "You say this fate is not good, I have enjoyed sixteen years of wealth and glory, and now I enter the mansion, I guess..."
Du Juan: "Who knows? Stop talking. Let's dress the girl up quickly. The master has a wedding night tonight."
"Hey, Tuo."
Li Mengyue listened to the conversation between the two maids and knew that there must be something wrong since Landlord Huang brought so many women into his mansion.
"Girl, Dujuan and I were sent to dress you up. If you are awake, open your eyes. If you are not awake yet, we will put makeup on you like this."
Seeing that Li Mengyue had no reaction, the two maids began to prepare to dress Li Mengyue.
When the two maids just touched her, Li Mengyue's body suddenly stiffened. She wanted to push them away, but then she clenched her fists and let them do whatever they wanted.
"Du Juan, looking at a face like this, I don't know where to start. She's just too beautiful. I've never seen such a stunning woman before."
"Yeah, I also feel like I don't need to wear makeup at all."
"But a girl only gets married once in her life, so how can she not wear bridal makeup? Let's use less rouge and powder."
"Well."
After more than an hour, when Li Mengyue was about to lose control, the two maids finally stopped.
"Hiss! This is too much."
"Hey, we've been tossing and turning for so long, but the girl hasn't woken up yet."
"The drug was too strong. My brother said the girl's parents didn't know about it. It was her grandmother and uncle who were greedy for money and drugged her and sold her out."
"This is too pitiful."
"Poor people, there are so many. Let's not talk about others, just the people in Jingyuan, who isn't pitiful? Fortunately, we are not good-looking, otherwise we would also be pitiful people in Jingyuan."
After the two maids left, Li Mengyue opened her eyes and saw herself in the mirror wearing a pink wedding dress. She didn't feel too much, but was thinking about the quiet courtyard the maids mentioned.
Perhaps because they thought she was a woman and unconscious, they relaxed their vigilance and left no one guarding the door. This made it convenient for Li Mengyue, as she left Wutong Courtyard without any hindrance.
She didn't want to waste time here. Just then, a servant passed by, and Li Mengyue quickly pulled the servant to a secluded corner.
The servant was pulled aside and thought it was someone from the mansion. But when he saw that it was a stranger girl, and then saw the clothes the girl was wearing, he immediately understood who it was. "You, you are the girl that Butler Qian brought back."
"Where is Jingyuan?" Li Mengyue went straight to the point and asked the place she wanted to know.
When the servant heard about Jingyuan, his face suddenly changed and he stammered, "How...how did you know about Jingyuan?"
"Stop talking nonsense and tell me where you are."
"Miss, listen to my advice. If you can leave, do it quickly and don't stay here for long." It was obvious that the servant knew something but was unwilling to say it, and he didn't want Li Mengyue to stay in the Huang Mansion.
Li Mengyue saw that the servant was really doing this for her, so she said gently, "Well, I will, but please tell me where the quiet courtyard is."
Seeing that his words were useless and still determined to know the location of the quiet courtyard, the servant said helplessly, "Young lady, come with me."
Li Mengyue followed the footsteps of the servant, turning left and right, and the road became more and more remote. After about a quarter of an hour, the two arrived at a very remote courtyard.
"This is the quiet courtyard. Miss, you have seen it. Let's go."
Li Mengyue stood outside the door, listening to the woman's miserable cry. She ignored the servant's earnest advice and took out something from her hair and fiddled with the lock a few times.
“Pah.”
Seeing that the door could not be opened without a key, Li Mengyue opened it with just three or five moves. The servant opened his mouth wide, and before he could close it, he saw the girl who came to him to ask for directions walked in.
"Hey, young lady, you can't come in." The servant hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, but Li Mengyue's steps were very fast. As soon as she ran up the stairs, she disappeared from sight.
The servant didn't know what he was thinking. He stamped his feet and followed him in.
Li Mengyue was in the quiet courtyard and took a step back in shock at the scene before her.
