Chapter 199: Quietly Holding the Past
When Mucheng and Muyuan received the news, they quickly took the guards into the mountains to search, while the others returned to the rooms to continue resting.
Aunt Xu followed Su Chenyu back to the wing where they moved in later: "My Lord, the Queen Mother is really vicious. She wants to ruin your reputation."
Su Chenyu didn't mind. It wasn't surprising no matter what the Queen Mother did to her.
There was a drug put into the ginseng soup. After Song Qingxuan drank the substituted ginseng soup, she soon fell into coma and was directly taken by Wutong to the room where Su Chenyu lived before.
As the lights in the compartment were turned off, someone soon climbed in through the window.
Everything was planned in advance, except that the owner was now Song Qingxuan.
There was a knock on the door at this time. Nanny Xu opened the door with a flash of surprise in her eyes. She didn't expect that the person who visited her so late at night was Jingchi.
Jing Chi walked into the wing room, and when she saw Su Chenyu, she saluted expressionlessly: "This poor nun greets the master."
Su Chenyu had no reaction to Jing Chi's arrival: "Shouldn't Master be searching the mountain at this time? Why are you here?"
"Master, you are all people of noble status. Jizhao Temple is too small to accommodate big Buddhas like you. If you want to do something, just go back to your capital city to make envoys. Why come to Jizhao Temple?"
Jing Chi's words were extremely impolite, but Su Chenyu seemed to have heard something funny: "Jing Chi, you can see who set up this trap. Why didn't you go find them? Instead, you came to me and acted like you were full of hatred and resentment. Do you think I'm easy to bully?"
"Master, you saw through everything, but you didn't stop them and let them plot, causing trouble for nothing. It's a bit too much."
"Jingchi, you hate others coming to Jizhao Temple to pick a fight, and I also hate them for their scheming. But this is how things are. Staying in one corner may not avoid all troubles, and there will always be trouble." Su Chenyu looked at Jingchi, "Jingchi, I understand that you want the peace and quiet of Jizhao Temple, but I am also very disappointed that you come to me like this. After all, I am the victim, and you are putting the cart before the horse."
Jingchi looked at Su Chenyu in front of him. For a moment, he didn't know what to say, so he turned around and left.
Aunt Xu sighed with emotion: "How did Jingchi become like this?"
"If you are disappointed with a place, how can you not change?"
Hearing Su Chenyu's answer, Aunt Xu was a little surprised: "Master, do you know Jing Chi's origins?"
Su Chenyu nodded: "I know a little bit. She used to be a maid in the harem."
Aunt Xu knew Jingchi better: "Master Jingchi is also a pitiful person."
Jingchi was sold into the palace to be a maid, becoming the lowest-ranking maid in the Xinzheku. Even when she fell ill, she had no choice but to continue working.
When she fainted on the ground due to a high fever, she thought she would die and would never open her eyes again, but unexpectedly she was saved by the late queen.
At that time, Jingchi was just a teenage girl, stubborn and obstinate. After she recovered from her illness, she tried every means to repay the late queen. The late queen thought this little palace maid was very interesting, so she kept her by her side to serve her.
Jingchi only stayed with the late queen for three days before she passed away.
The late queen pardoned Jingchi and allowed him to leave the palace, but Jingchi asked to become a nun at Jizhao Temple, saying that he wanted to pray for the late queen in front of Buddha for the rest of his life.
When that little palace maid became nun Ruoxi Jingchi, how much suffering she went through, only she herself knew.
