The three beauties who were named turned pale with fright when they heard this.
"Let's go."
The beauties in the Beauty Pavilion watched the three of them leave. After they walked away, they wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads unconsciously.
Gesang held Bei Yutang's hand, covered his heart, and said with a look of relief, "It was a close call, a close call. Fortunately, Madam didn't choose us."
"Yes." Bei Yutang responded according to her words.
In the evening, many women in the pavilion looked at the door. Gesang looked at the door from time to time. It was quiet there. No one entered until dark.
"Yutang, do you think they will come back alive?"
"Maybe." Bei Yutang was not sure, but based on her judgment, there was a high probability that he would die.
After they fell asleep, none of the three beauties came back.
The next morning, when the palace maids came to deliver the meal, Gesang couldn't help but ask, "My two sisters, how are the three beauties who served the king yesterday?"
The maid didn't respond. Bei Yutang stood up, took off the bracelet from her wrist and placed it in the maid's hand. She smiled and asked, "I hope you can give me some advice."
The maid glanced at the bracelet, then silently put it away and lowered her voice, "As soon as the three beauties entered the palace, they somehow angered the king and were executed that same night."
As for how the execution would be carried out, the palace maid did not say it clearly, as it would only make them worry.
After the palace maid finished speaking, she left in a hurry.
Gesang slumped down in his chair, as if all his vitality had been drained away. After a long pause, he murmured softly, "Yutang, I'm really scared."
No matter how much others say about this matter, it is useless. We can only let them adjust themselves.
"Let's eat."
Gesang shook his head and said, "I can't eat it."
"If you starve yourself to thinness, you won't be beautiful anymore."
Gesang gave a bitter laugh and said, "What's the use of beauty? The king treats beauties the same way. He kills them at will."
"If you're not beautiful, you'll be the first to die when you get in front of him. If you're pretty, you can live longer."
Gesan looked at her speechlessly, thinking that what she said made a lot of sense.
Over the next two weeks, many beauties left and went out, some came back, and some were never seen again. Bei Yutang thought she would be chosen easily, but the reality was the opposite.
No matter how the nanny tried to choose, she just couldn't pick her, which made her seriously doubt whether it was because she was too beautiful that made the nanny feel pity for her and was reluctant to let her die.
Three months is already a short time, and wasting any more time here is definitely not a good thing.
Bei Yutang secretly sent Gesan away and asked the little palace maid to get the medicinal herbs she wanted from the Imperial Medical Bureau. These herbs seemed to be ordinary things, but once they were properly mixed, they were of great use.
At midnight, the entire palace was silent. Aside from the single lights lit at the entrances of the various palaces, the rest was completely dark. A figure silently left the Beauty Pavilion and headed towards the center of the palace.
The closer she got to the central palace, the more Dark Dragon Guards hid in the shadows. If she hadn't practiced the Chain Ice Palm, which made her senses several times stronger than those of an ordinary warrior, she would have been discovered by the Dark Dragon Guards before she even got close to the center.
Even so, Bei Yutang did not dare to be careless and went to the palace where Feng Chi was cautiously.
