Chapter 49 deserves a shot!
With Yun Fu in charge, Liu's health has recovered well and she can now sit up.
Qi Xu has undergone the biggest change.
She used a simple wooden fork to lift up the hair that covered her eyes, bravely revealing the scars on her face.
Try to accept those strange looks.
In fact, those exiled prisoners and yamen runners at most thought that the scar on her face was ugly, looked at her a few more times, or whispered and gossiped about her.
Only Qi Zhen would mock her with harsh words in front of her.
Don't miss any opportunity to humiliate her.
"Ah, where did this ugly monster come from? You scared me."
If it were in the past, Qi Xu would immediately lower his head and pretend to be dumb to avoid offending Qi Zhen's eyes.
But now, she is no longer a concubine's daughter, and Qi Zhen is no longer a legitimate daughter who is superior to her.
She no longer needs to swallow her anger in front of Qi Zhen.
Qi Xu even deliberately took a few steps forward, raised his eyes, and replied to her: "Then you can poke your eyes out, then I won't scare you anymore."
"Qi Xu, you little bitch..."
Before Qi Zhen could finish her curse of "little bitch", Qi Xu adjusted the distance between them and slapped her in the face.
"Qi Xu, you hit me! How dare you hit me!"
"I even dare to fight Qi Dahai now, so who do you think you are!"
Qi Xu remembered every word Yun Fu said to her.
Being lenient towards your enemies is being cruel to yourself.
Some people are born to be fools, they deserve to be beaten!
Qi Zhen was frightened by her eyes: "You, are you relying on Yun Fu to support you? Have you forgotten that the so-called benefactor, the good man, the kind-hearted man you mentioned, was once at a banquet, and you used him as a joke to entertain people and laughed louder than anyone else.
”
"That time, it was Yun Fu who asked me to take you there, cut your hair, and embarrass you in front of everyone. You don't really think she's a good person, do you?"
Qi Zhen's words brought back some unpleasant memories in Qi Xu's heart.
Yun Fu and Qi Hanzhou happened to pass by and heard these words.
Some not-so-good memories were also triggered in Qi Hanzhou's mind.
He frowned.
At that time, he heard about this incident from other people, and his disgust towards Yun Fu increased even more.
"I did laugh at you at the banquet. I'm sorry. I apologize." Faced with such an embarrassing situation, Yun Fu did not choose to avoid it. Instead, she stood up with dignity and apologized to Qi Xu on behalf of the original owner.
But there are some things that Yun Fu needs to explain for the original owner.
She won't take the blame that Qi Zhen put on her!
"I didn't ask Qi Zhen to take you there, nor did I ask someone to cut your hair and embarrass you in public."
Qi Xu was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Yun Fu to apologize or explain to her. She quickly waved her hands and said, "Ah, it's okay, it's okay. It's all in the past."
She was not just saying this for the sake of politeness, but she truly forgave Yun Fu.
"My princess, you seem to be different from before."
"Maybe he has become sensible after going through too many things." Yun Fu's expression was indifferent, and her calm and cold eyes swept over Qi Zhen beside her.
"It seems that you haven't been beaten enough!"
Qi Zhen was frightened when she saw Yun Fu, so she didn't dare to stay there any longer. She glared at Qi Xu and left in shame.
——
What happened during the day was just a small episode for others.
However, Qi Hanzhou began to doubt Yun Fu's identity again because of Qi Xu's words, "Princess, you seem to have become different from before."
"Qi Xu, can you please say a few words?"
When Yun Fu went for a stroll in the woods, Qi Hanzhou found Qi Xu alone.
"Well, what do you want to say to me, Third Brother?"
Although they are cousins, Qi Xu couldn't help but feel a little nervous when facing her cousin.
"Why did you say today that the princess is different from before? Can you explain it in detail?"
Qi Hanzhou heard the nervousness in her voice and softened his tone.
Qi Xu's expression froze for a moment: "Ah, can you tell me what's different about the princess?"
Qi Hanzhou nodded and guided her with words: "Yes, I didn't know her very well before, but now I want to know more about her. Please tell me about the differences you found, such as her appearance, personality, etc."
Qi Xu had no defensive thoughts towards him and recalled seriously, "The princess was indeed different before and now! No, it should be said that she is like two different people."
"She used to be best friends with Qi Zhen, but now she seems to particularly hate Qi Zhen."
"She used to look down on lowly servants. When a maid soiled her dress, she was beaten severely. But now, she is kind to everyone, even the dirty disaster victims, and she doesn't show any disdain at all."
…
"Is that all?"
These were not what Qi Hanzhou wanted, because, without Qi Xu saying anything, he could feel how much Yun Fu hated Qi Zhen now.
Qi Xu thought carefully for a while and said, "It's also about the feeling she gives people. I think the princess has become more beautiful now. Even in her gray clothes, she is very dazzling."
In the past, Princess Yunfu was also the most beautiful woman in Shengjing, but that kind of beauty seemed to be made up of a lot of things. Now, the beauty emanating from Yunfu does not need any external objects to embellish it.
"Is she pretty?" Qi Hanzhou recalled Yun Fu's appearance. His memory was of their wedding night, with her face painted pale and heavily made up.
That face, at least in his opinion, had nothing to do with beauty.
He once thought that Yun Fu's title of the most beautiful woman in Shengjing was spread by herself shamelessly.
"She's beautiful! She's especially beautiful! If your eyes were healed, you'd see her now and know I wasn't talking nonsense."
As a woman, she had stared at Princess Yunfu's face in a daze several times.
"He knew nothing before, but now he has mastered medicine, martial arts, and his cooking skills are amazing. There is probably no one else as smart as him in the entire Five Kingdoms."
Qi Xu was really praising Yun Fu, and his eyes lit up when he was excited.
But to Qi Hanzhou, it had a different meaning, so he was not the only one who felt that Yun Fu and the previous Princess Yun Fu were not the same person.
If you think about it carefully, Yun Fu really has too many secrets hidden in her.
For example, she would go for a walk in the woods alone every day.
You can always pick up thousand-year-old ginseng and hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum in this wilderness.
For example, she always seemed to have endless amounts of medicine on her body, and the medicinal properties of those medicines were so strong that even the most powerful imperial physicians in the palace might not be able to make them.
How could she possibly buy it in the cities she passed by?
