Life was peaceful in Kyoto. Jiang Sui was living a very comfortable life under the care of her biological mother and Xiao's mother. She was quietly waiting for Xiao Hechuan to come back, and time passed very slowly.
However, something happened in Jeju. Ran Qiu wrote a letter saying that Fang Miao had disappeared for no reason. Mr. He was very angry and almost turned the whole Jeju upside down, but he could not find any trace of Fang Miao.
When Jiang Sui received the letter, he was very confused. How could Fang Miao disappear for no reason? She couldn't disappear.
So, after Jiang Sui got the news, he immediately went to find Helian Jing and told him the news.
Now facing the covetous Rakshasa Kingdom, Fang Miao is Daqing's trump card, and may be able to avoid the outbreak of war in the future.
As soon as she disappeared, everyone became nervous.
Helian Heng has searched the entire Jeju, but still couldn't find Fang Miao. However, he is not stupid. If he thinks about it carefully, he probably knows who did it.
So, he finally decided to set off back to Kyoto.
In Concubine Guo's bedroom, Fang Miaocai had just been abducted back to Kyoto by the concubine's men.
She was in a very miserable state at the moment, she was dirty and hadn't eaten anything. It had not been an easy journey here, and she had no idea who she had offended.
She was just very anxious now. Bei Moting and she suddenly disappeared. Everyone must be very worried. She didn't know if Ran Qiu could handle it.
And he should be looking for me everywhere, right?
With his personality, he would only be so gentle and accommodating to me, and always looked indifferent to outsiders. His temper was also changeable. I guess he must have been very angry when I was kidnapped.
This girl, in this situation, not only doesn't think about her own safety, but keeps thinking about others.
At this moment, a beautiful and graceful lady was sitting at the head, drinking tea leisurely. She looked down at the woman kneeling below, and judging from her stature, she didn't look like a proper girl.
"Who are you? We have no grudges against each other, why did you bring me here?"
Fang Miao looked at the magnificent palace and guessed that the woman at the top, who was dressed exquisitely and luxuriously, was no ordinary person.
Since she came to Central Plains, she was trapped in the Bi Bo Pavilion for a long time. It was only after she went to Bei Mo Ting that she was given basic respect and freedom. She has always been conscientious and done everything carefully and diligently, and has not made any enemies. So when did she offend anyone?
Concubine Guo finally felt like getting up. With the help of her maid, she walked in front of Fang Miao and signaled with her eyes. The maid understood what she meant and lifted Fang Miao's chin to look her over.
Seeing her blue eyes and her exotic, breathtakingly beautiful face, Concubine Guo couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
But it was only for a moment, and anger ignited in her eyes.
"She is indeed a foxy girl. No wonder she can charm Heng'er so much that she doesn't even care about me, her mother."
There were countless beauties in the harem, but it was the first time that they had seen a beauty like Fang Miao. Even the maids who had seen countless different types and styles could not help but be shocked when they saw Fang Miao's face.
Heng'er? Mother?
She was referring to He Heng? She was his mother?
Through this short sentence, Fang Miao captured this information.
"You are He Heng's mother?"
"He Heng?"
Upon hearing this, Concubine Guo laughed out of anger. This boy actually concealed his identity and hung out with her. He was not that stupid.
Before kidnapping Fang Miao, she sent someone to find out her background and learned that she was a prostitute, so she despised her even more.
"You are nothing but a dirty whore. Do you think you can stay with my son forever? Are you worthy?"
Concubine Guo's words were extremely sarcastic and harsh, which immediately brought Fang Miao to the bottom of her heart.
In the past, she would not have thought anything of this sentence, but with the help of Jiang Sui and Xiao Hechuan, she gradually realized what it meant to be respected, to have human rights, and to have value. When she heard these words mocking her as a prostitute again, she inevitably felt ashamed.
However, Fang Miao did not know the identity of Concubine Guo, so she was still very tough.
"It's true that I was a prostitute in the past, but I have never done anything that is against the law. As for He Heng, he has always wanted to follow me, and I have never dreamed of staying with him forever."
She knew that He Heng's identity was not ordinary, and she also knew that she was not worthy of him, so for so long, although she was moved, she had been trying her best to restrain her emotions.
"Hey, you're still pretending to be a saint? Someone, come and slap me in the face!"
The more Concubine Guo looked at her, the more she disliked her, so she ordered someone to slap her in the face.
So, several maids forcibly held Fang Miao down and started slapping her. Soon her face turned red, but Concubine Guo still felt unsatisfied.
Watching her being beaten, she felt a refreshing feeling in her heart, as if she was treating her as her imaginary enemy, and she felt a pleasure of revenge.
Life in the harem is already depressing, with everyone thinking about how to win favor. However, time is merciless, and as time flies by and one's face ages, there is no way one can compete with those delicate flowers.
Seeing that a little blood had already flowed from the corner of Fang Miao's mouth, the trusted maidservant beside Concubine Guo reminded her:
"Your Highness, that's enough. We still have to rely on her to negotiate with His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu. If something bad happens, given His Royal Highness's temper, I'm afraid he will be tough with you to the end."
When Concubine Guo heard this, she thought about her son's temper and realized that it was indeed the case, so she raised her hand and asked them to stop.
"Okay, lock her up in the secret chamber and keep a close eye on her. Don't let her escape or leak the news. Otherwise, watch out for your heads!"
This is the harem, and her every move is being watched. How many people want to see her go into the water?
Now that he no longer has the support of his mother's family, even though he is the head of the four concubines, he is still ridiculed and mocked by them. Now, apart from fighting for the title of the eldest prince, Helian Heng is like a forgotten person in the eyes of the emperor and has no ambition to make progress.
And because of the mistakes made by her mother's family, she fell out of favor, and the emperor hadn't visited her for a long time.
Fang Miao was beaten dizzy, but she still stood up straight stubbornly to maintain her little remaining dignity.
Now she only prayed that He Heng could come to rescue her as soon as possible, explain things to his mother, and let her go back to Jeju. She liked the life in Jeju very much and didn't want to be disturbed.
Fang Miao was brought to the Qiu Shui Palace, a secret room dug by Concubine Guo under the rockery. Although there was no sunlight inside, it had everything it needed. After all, it was a royal palace, and the facilities inside were all good things that were hard to find outside.
Fang Miao really didn't like this feeling. It was as if she was back to the time when she first came to Central Plains and was locked up in a dark secret room by Shunyi Marquis all day long and was taught by a group of maids.
