Two days later, Debbie went to the capital under Yu Jiao's arrangement.
In Xinglou, after listening to the expressionless message from the secret guard, Liu Miwu did not make any explanation. After the guard left, she swept all the items on the dressing table to the ground without any warning.
The maid outside heard the noise and knocked on the door and asked, "Miss Liu, did you hit something? Do you want me to go in and clean it up?"
Liu Miwu looked at her own face in the bronze mirror coldly and replied, "No need."
The face in the mirror is beautiful but not coquettish, her eyes are charming, her lips are red without any makeup, her eyebrows are dark without any makeup, and her skin is whiter than snow. She can attract the attention of all men, but why does he never even look at her more?
When she was twelve years old, her parents died and her family fell into poverty. She went to Huairou to live with her relatives, but she didn't expect that her relatives had evil intentions. Seeing that she was pretty, they secretly contacted a brothel and sold her for a large sum of money.
Just when she cried out to the heavens and the earth for help but no one answered, Cheng Ying appeared. This man was like a god, saving her from the water and fire and taking her away from that dirty and despicable place.
The girl Mu Ai, Liu Miwu couldn't tell her feelings for this man at all, whether it was love, or gratitude for being saved from despair, or both.
He hired someone to teach her how to read and write, how to practice piano and dance, and there were maids and old women serving her in the house. Liu Miwu even thought at one point that he was waiting for her to grow up.
She was looking forward to it with great joy, and this man was all in her eyes and heart. She didn't care at all that he was a eunuch and couldn't be a human being. She thought that after she came of age, she would be able to marry him.
It was not until later that she found out that he had several other beautiful women like herself. To Cheng Ying, Liu Miwu was neither the only one nor the special one.
At the age of fifteen, knowing that Cheng Ying raised them so that they could enter the palace to serve the emperor, Liu Miwu sold herself to Xinglou in anger. She thought that this self-deprecating act would anger Cheng Ying and win him a little sympathy.
What she waited for was the arrangement for her to collect intelligence in Xinglou, which made her realize that she had no place in Cheng Ying's heart at all.
But she still couldn't let go of this man.
There was no other woman around him before, so she could still deceive herself that this man would never fall in love with any woman because he was a eunuch. But Liang Wushuang appeared. How could she be willing to accept this?
In the bronze mirror, deep jealousy emerged in Liu Miwu's eyes, and her beautiful face was slightly distorted.
There was a sudden knock on the door. Liu Miwu frowned and asked in a cold voice, "What's the matter?"
The maid outside said cautiously, "Miss, Miss Shen Er from the residence of Grand Secretary Shen is here and wants to see you."
Liu Miwu restrained her expression, stood up and opened the door. The maid took a look at the rouge jar and red hairpin that fell to the floor in the room, and asked cautiously, "Who made the young lady unhappy?"
"Clean up and don't go to Fang Mama and say anything." Liu Miwu gave the order with a cold face, and then asked, "Which room is Miss Shen Er in?"
The maid replied, "To the Meilan Pavilion on the second floor of the middle building, Miss Shen brought a strange girl. I didn't recognize which family in Beijing she was from."
Liu Miwu nodded slightly and walked outside. The maids and servants in Xinglou were welcoming and seeing off guests. Most of the powerful families in the capital could recognize them at a glance. Last time, the second Miss Shen brought her cousin from the Wang family who was married to Qingzhou and divorced and returned to the capital. I wonder which girl she brought this time.
As she walked in the building, Liu Miwu had her usual smile on her lips, looking extremely charming and graceful, attracting many guests in the building to look at her and chat with her. After handling all the calls with great tact, Liu Miwu walked into the Meilan Pavilion in a graceful and elegant manner.
"Miss Shen Er, there is no poetry gathering in the building today. What spring breeze brings you here?" Liu Miwu smiled softly, and the warmth in her voice was just right.
Chen Wan also smiled and said, "Miss Miwu, please take a seat."
Liu Miwu raised her hand and poured herself a cup of tea. She raised her eyelashes slightly and looked at Yang Jiyan who was sitting next to Shen Wan. She said, "I have never seen this girl before. Has she never been to Xinglou before?"
Chen Wan introduced, "Her surname is Yang, her name is Ji Yan, and she also grew up in Beijing when she was young. Yang's mother was sent to Qingzhou to serve as a prefect a few years ago, and Yan Jie'er and her family followed her. They just returned to Beijing recently."
The capital city is the most powerful, not to mention Xinglou, a place of fame and fortune. Afraid that Liu Miwu would treat Yang Jiyan coldly because of her identity, Shen Wan deliberately added, "My mother and her mother were close friends in the boudoir, and we are like sisters."
"It turns out to be Miss Yang. Although I have never met you before, you should come to our Xinglou often in the future. There is a poetry meeting in the building every fifteenth day, which is very lively." Liu Miwu looked at Yang Jiyan and said with a smile.
Yang Jiyan's attention was on Liu Miwu's nails which were dyed with Impatiens and trimmed extremely delicately. With such exquisiteness, it was no wonder that the women in brothels could make men lose their minds and even their beautiful wives and concubines at home would go to brothels.
Seeing that Yang Jiyan seemed to be distracted, Chen Guan gently pinched her arm. Yang Jiyan came back to her senses and saw Liu Miwu looking at her. She was not embarrassed and said, "Miss Miwu is really beautiful. When you came in, I smelled a fragrant breeze. It smelled very good. I wonder what kind of fragrance Miss Miwu is using?"
