Meng Yan, who was about to go to sleep, immediately turned pale when she heard this.
She was actually going to marry Pei Muchen.
Although she had expected this, she was still very unhappy and uncomfortable when the day came.
It feels like something of mine has been taken away by someone else.
She snorted coldly, "It's just marrying a eunuch, what's there to envy!"
Her words frightened the people around her. "Are you going to die? How dare you say that to Jiuqiansui?"
"What are you afraid of? There are only a few of us here. If we don't tell anyone, no one will know." Meng Yan was not afraid at all.
"I was telling the truth. Marrying a eunuch is nothing to envy!"
"Even if she marries a eunuch, he will still be a noble man that we can't reach, and it's better than living in poverty all her life!" A palace maid said with a bitter face.
"If possible, I would rather marry Jiuqian Sui, as long as he can let me live a prosperous and happy life!"
"That's right." Someone echoed.
"Look at my hands, they are uglier than men's hands." The palace maid said, looking at her hands.
They all have miserable lives, but if they marry a eunuch, they can enjoy endless wealth and glory for the rest of their lives, so they are eager to marry him.
"It's just a little money." Meng Yan snorted coldly, looking down on them.
"It's just a little money. You treat money like dirt. Give me your money!" one of the palace maids retorted.
"That's right."
Meng Yan was speechless and extremely angry.
"Look at your hands and your face. You look much older than when you first came here. Do you want to suffer in the palace?" The palace maid said, pointing at Meng Yan's face.
When Meng Yan heard this, she immediately touched her face in horror. She was extremely tired and had not eaten well during this period. She also realized that she was in poor condition and had lost a lot of hair.
But she didn't take it to heart, but when the other party said she was old, she became scared.
Her face is her only advantage. If she loses it, how can she turn the situation around?
No, absolutely not.
Meng Yan wanted to leave even more urgently.
But she had no one to rely on, and not only could she not leave the palace, she would not survive if she left.
She suffered here, while Liu Yin could marry Pei Muchen and live a good life. Meng Yan felt even more unbalanced.
All of this should have been hers.
In her previous life, she could spend money however she wanted with Pei Muchen, eat whatever she wanted, and have someone serve her.
But now he is suffering here.
Her beautiful hands were all covered with blisters, which turned into calluses when they broke. Now she no longer has the pampered life she used to have.
Meng Yan suffers every day.
She couldn't even see the emperor, let alone overturn her father's verdict.
Besides, she has no evidence.
Her house was attacked by men in black that night and she escaped, but before she could report to the authorities, they arrived.
How is it possible that her father was plotting a rebellion? It's absolutely impossible. It must be a false accusation by someone else.
She didn't know what to do. She had no money to support herself, so she could only work as a maid in the palace. She was close to the emperor, and maybe she could appeal to him about her grievances.
Maybe she would be favored by the emperor by accident, and she could become a concubine in the harem and even overturn her father's verdict.
But no one expected that the emperor died as soon as he entered the palace.
Her plan failed.
How could she seduce someone when a seven-year-old child sat on the throne?
This emperor died at a really bad time.
Now Meng Yan is stuck here and has no idea what to do.
She couldn't really wait until she was fifteen to leave the palace. There were still nine years left, and then she would be old and ugly.
Now, after only a month here, she heard the palace maids say that she was old, and she was scared.
She suddenly realized that maybe marrying Pei Muchen wasn't so bad.
At least she could leave the palace and no longer have to live a hard life. She could also enjoy wealth and luxury and be served by servants.
