Chapter 219 Waiting for Brother
"Zhuzhu?" the girl murmured softly.
"Yes! Pearl of pearls, pearl of bright pearls, from now on, you will be the apple of our eye. Brother promises that no one can bully you anymore." Looking at this small and cramped room, Chen Yubai really wanted to take his sister away from here tonight.
But this is the palace.
How easy is it to take someone away?
He is such a useless brother!
The girl raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Okay, then call me Zhuzhu."
She asked, "Who are our father and mother?"
Shen Yubai mentioned the adoptive parents, and all he knew was their identities.
Who made him a son? He is also very fresh and enthusiastic.
He doesn't know any more.
Zhuzhu was very surprised that her father was Pei Zhi and her mother was Xie Changning.
She had heard others talk about them.
I know that Pei Zhi is the Minister of Justice and Xie Changning is the wife of Marquis Jing'an.
But never saw them.
Shen Yubai also asked the doubts in his heart, "Sister, how did you survive in this cannibalistic harem, and who taught you your kung fu?"
It turns out that Zhuzhu was raised by an old eunuch in Chaoyun Palace since she was a child.
There was clearly a palace maid in Chaoyun Palace, but Concubine Qi gave her to an old eunuch to raise. What's more, the old eunuch was very perverted. He was really despicable!
Zhuzhu couldn't speak yet, so they gave her a mute drug.
When she was three years old, because she looked more and more like Xie Changning, Concubine Qi asked the old eunuch to press her face into a burning charcoal brazier.
That's when her face was burned.
That time, she almost didn't make it.
She was not stupid at first. When she was five years old, Concubine Qi kicked her off the rockery. She hit her head and was in a coma for several days. When she woke up, she looked dazed and everyone thought she was stupid.
In fact, she was scared.
She found that after she became like this, the number of times those people beat and scolded her actually decreased.
Instinctively, she began to play dumb.
By chance, she accidentally broke into the cold palace, where a disabled concubine was imprisoned. Not only were the tendons in her hands and feet cut, but she was also sometimes lucid and sometimes crazy.
Once, the concubine was seriously ill and was about to die.
She sent some food to the concubine, but unexpectedly, the concubine survived miraculously. When she woke up, the concubine began to instruct her how to kill people.
She said that in this harem, the only way to survive is to learn how to kill.
Zhuzhu only studied with her for two years before she died of illness.
Zhuzhu only found out later that the concubine was actually a killer sent by another country to assassinate His Majesty.
Unfortunately, she failed.
So this is what happened.
When no one was around, she would practice her killing skills alone, day after day, all for the purpose of killing Concubine Qi.
Unfortunately, there were so many guards around Concubine Qi that she never found a chance to take action.
Because she knew very well that she only had one chance.
If you fail, you will die. Even if you succeed by chance, you will still die in the end.
She had always intended to die together with Concubine Qi.
Shen Yubai felt distressed after hearing this and was speechless for a long time.
After a long while, he choked up and said, "Just wait, sister. Tomorrow night I will definitely take you out of this cage."
Zhuzhu shook her head, "No, I won't leave. I must kill Concubine Qi with my own hands!"
Shen Yubai looked at her intently, "Don't worry, I will definitely keep Concubine Qi for you and let you do it yourself. As for tomorrow night, you must leave here with me. Don't you want to see your father and mother?"
Zhuzhu looked hesitant. She naturally wanted to do it, even in her dreams.
But now she is not only avenging herself, but also avenging her father and mother.
Chen Yubai saw through her thoughts at a glance. He gently poked her forehead and said, "Silly Zhuzhu, you not only have a brother now, but also a father and a mother. If we were all here and asked you to put yourself in danger, what use would we be? The most urgent thing is to take you away from here and heal your face."
Zhuzhu, "But..."
As soon as she opened her mouth, Shen Yubai said, "Didn't you say you believed in your brother? Why don't you believe in your brother now?"
Zhuzhu shook her head, "No."
"Leave the rest to us. In a month at most, your brother will make sure you kill Concubine Qi. Your father is not incompetent either. And your mother has the entire Duke's Mansion behind her. We will be your backers from now on. No matter what happens, as long as you act coquettishly, we will do it for you." Shen Yubai put his hands on her shoulders and looked at her dotingly.
Zhuzhu then reluctantly said: "Okay then!"
Chen Yubai stared at her intently, "Zhuzhu, are you unwilling to acknowledge your brother? Why don't you call me brother?"
Zhuzhu was stunned for a moment and whispered, "Brother!"
Shen Yubai smiled with tears in his eyes, "Zhuzhu is so good, wait for your brother, I will take you away from here tomorrow night."
It was still dark the next day.
Xie Changning had just fallen asleep.
"Madam, please wake up! Lord Pei is here and said that the eldest young master has been found, our fourth young lady." Mother Du suddenly rushed in like crazy.
