After calming herself down, she saw a black shadow slowly floating on the river in front of her, and then a person floated up from the water!
“Oh my god!”
Qiao Yege shrank back in fear, then calmed down and immediately realized... Could this be the emperor who fell into the water?
Without having time to think, she jumped into the water in two steps, pulled the person in the water, and with all her might, she finally dragged him to the shore.
It was only at this time that the eunuchs and palace maids arrived at the scene.
The eunuch, who was a little older and was in the lead, pushed the crowd aside, squatted in front of the emperor, clasped his hands together, and cried, "Your Majesty, this slave deserves to die, this slave deserves to die!"
Seeing the chief eunuch start to cry, the palace maids and eunuchs behind him knelt on the ground, repeating in their mouths: "This slave deserves to die!"
"Get out of here, everyone!"
The man was lying on the ground, facing the loess, his whole body was wet, pressing on Qiao Yuge's legs. He coughed twice and spat out a large mouthful of water. Even his speech was accompanied by a wet breath.
Then he turned over, sat up, and raised his voice: "Who was the blind person who saved me?"
Although the man did not say this, his eyes fell mercilessly on Qiao Yuge's face.
Qiao Yuge was startled and subconsciously knelt on the ground: "It is this servant who is blind... Your Majesty, please forgive me."
What had she done to offend anyone? If she really did not help him and watched the emperor drift away from her, her head would not survive tonight, right?
The emperor gritted his teeth, his eyes like knives, and cut Qiao Yege's body fiercely, then climbed up and walked away without looking back.
Qiao Yege looked up and saw the chief eunuch following behind the emperor. Before leaving, the emperor gave Qiao Yege a thumbs up.
Everyone left in a hurry. The emperor's clothes were dripping with water as he walked, which was a funny scene.
Qiao Yuge lay on the ground in a daze, not knowing what to do.
Is that all? After all, she was a warrior who saved the emperor, but not only was she not rewarded, she wasn't even thanked?
At night, I don't know when, it started raining.
Qiao Yuge's bed was a little damp, and it was uncomfortable to lie on it.
There were snoring sounds everywhere. Ever since Jianhong was taught a lesson, the rest of the people have become much more well-behaved.
She was dazed and sleepy, but just as she fell asleep, her head was tightly covered, and then she was dragged off the bed and tied up neatly.
Suddenly awakened, Qiao Yuge struggled twice, but failed to break free.
Jianhong's voice came to my ears: "Qiao Yege? Aren't you arrogant? Today I will let you see what happens when you offend me!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Yege was hit hard on the masked face twice, leaving her dizzy.
Then the thing on the head was pulled off, and the candlelight shone down. Qiao Yuge squinted her eyes slightly, and saw that Zhang Ma was in the lead, with a red-haired lady on the side, and a group of people surrounded her in the middle.
Aunt Zhang shook the whip in her hand, sneered and said, "Qiao Yuge, if I were you, girl, you would be obedient and I wouldn't do anything to you. But you are blind and you still want to turn things around?"
"Girls, today we will show Miss Qiao the consequences of being disobedient in the imperial palace!"
As soon as Nanny Zhang finished speaking, Jianhong could no longer bear it and slapped Qiao Yege on the face. A burning pain surged up at once, and she wished she could knock Qiao Yege's tears down!
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Seeing Qiao Yege being beaten, Aunt Zhang laughed triumphantly.
Qiao Yuge gritted her teeth, she never expected that her previous actions did not scare everyone, but instead made these people target her even more?
The anger in her heart was instantly ignited, but she still managed to hold it back calmly.
It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge! We will see!
Seeing that Qiao Yuge remained silent, Aunt Zhang felt that her revenge was not satisfied, so she reached out and grabbed Cuiqing: "Cuiqing, come here and give this bitch a slap."
Cui Qing was brought over like a little chick, trembling all over. She looked at Qiao Yege's flushed cheeks and shook her head.
"You don't want to fight? Then I'll beat you up too today!"
When Aunt Zhang said this, she raised her hand. Cui Qing shrank her neck and immediately stretched out her hand, hitting Qiao Yege hard on the face.
She closed her eyes while hitting.
But at the same time, Qiao Yege didn't get angry but laughed instead, staring at Cui Qing without saying a word.
"What are you looking at? Is it that Cuiqing is not strong enough to suppress her? Then let me try again..." Before Aunt Zhang could finish her words, the door of the woodshed was suddenly pushed open, and five or six people came in.
Leading the group was a maid, wearing a brown dress with gold embroidery and a simple and elegant headdress on her head, which was shining brightly under the candlelight.
Behind her followed two young maids, and in the candlelight, they looked like stubborn blue and white porcelain in the rainy night.
"Madam Hua?" Madam Zhang turned her head and saw a maid holding an umbrella for Madam Hua, with raindrops dripping down the tip of the umbrella.
Aunt Hua is the empress dowager's personal attendant and holds great power in the harem. Her appearance represents the empress dowager's intention.
How did she end up in the laundry?
Nanny Hua said nothing. She held her hands and looked around. She saw a strange atmosphere in the laundry department and everyone was surrounding Qiao Yuge.
Qiao Yege's hair was wet and stuck to her forehead, hiding her fair little face. Her beautiful eyes were like stars in the dark night.
What a stubborn girl! Is this the one the Queen Mother is looking for?
Aunt Hua twitched her lips and said to Aunt Zhang in a cold voice, "You didn't sleep in the middle of the night, and you actually wanted to punish the girl? How dare you!"
Aunt Zhang lowered her head in panic and swallowed her saliva: "This girl doesn't know what's good for her. She ruined Shu Fei's handkerchief and still insisted on hurting others. She is so naughty that I have no choice but to teach her a lesson."
Nanny Hua nodded and raised her chin. Then she saw the two palace maids behind her walk through the crowd, come to Qiao Yege, and quickly untie Qiao Yege.
Everyone was shocked; even Aunt Zhang found it hard to believe.
Before everyone could react, Aunt Hua walked up to Qiao Yuge and helped her up with both hands. Her cold eyes suddenly warmed up a little: "Miss Qiao, the Queen Mother has ordered you to come over!"
Who? Was it the Queen Mother who wanted to ask Qiao Yege to come over? But this woman was just a servant in the laundry department!
Qiao Yuge was also confused. Although he always felt that this was a reward for his easy advantage over the emperor today, he did not dare to draw a conclusion when he thought of the emperor's "deep hatred" for him.
