Chapter 456 Mei Niang’s provocation for favor

 After walking around the corridor in front, I turned my head and saw several maids standing there with displeased expressions on their faces. Opposite them was the dancing girl Mei Niang, who was facing those maids arrogantly.

Said: "Did you hear that? I am a gift from Lord Li to the Imperial Envoy. I am different from you. Don't block my way!"

When one of the maids heard this, she immediately said: "What do you mean by this?"

"That's what you mean, can't you understand people?" She sneered, looked at them, and said disdainfully: "I thought the people around the Imperial Envoy would be smarter, but it turns out they are all this kind of stuff, huh!"

The faces of those few immediately became ugly, and they cursed: "What did you say?!"

The maid who accompanied me seemed to have just been a little angry, with an angry look on her face. However, she couldn't go over and scold her in front of me, so she could only say secretly: "Meixiang, please, you are all slaves."

Yeah. Look how crazy she is!"

I looked back at her, then at the girl, then slowly walked over and asked, "What's the matter?"

When the maids saw me, they hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Madam."

"Yes." I nodded, motioning for them all to get up, and then turned to face the eyebrow girl. She was also looking at me. She was wearing a plain dress, her long hair was casually pulled into a bun, and she was inserted diagonally.

An ordinary hairpin with no other decorations, not even a light eyebrow makeup. She looked me up and down and snorted from her nose.

The maid who was following me immediately said: "Hey, you are still not polite when you see Madam!"

"Huh, madam?" Mei Niang glanced at me, rolled her eyes, and said coldly: "My lord has never even mentioned it to anyone, what kind of lady are you?"

My face also darkened a bit.

The eyes of these people have been trained in a frying pan. Yuan Yichu has never mentioned me in any public place, and when he got on the ship today, he didn't even look at me. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that I, the "Mrs."

I am favored, even treated coldly, so it’s no wonder she looks down on me.

However, I just felt sad for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Since you don't know, then why don't you go ask the adults about my identity?"

Her face also stiffened.

Although she looked down on me, she also knew that I was a madam after all. Even if she was not favored, she would not dare to make too many mistakes in front of me, so she lazily said: "No need, madam, right?

I know that’s it.”

I still smiled: "Now that you know that I am your wife, what should you do?"

She looked at me displeasedly, and when she saw that I was just smiling and not getting angry, she impatiently said to me: "Mei Niang has met Madam."

"Since you call me madam, then I should take good care of you, the newcomer." I said, took a step forward and said, "What were you making a fuss about just now?"

When the maid next to her heard this, she hurriedly said: "Madam, your Excellency passed the soup, and we delivered it to you, but as soon as she came, she had to rush over to deliver it. This is our business in the first place——"

Before she finished speaking, Meiniang had already rushed to say: "So what? I was given to you by Master Li just to serve you, the imperial envoy, to do some small things for you, and to share your worries. Is it wrong?"

After saying that, she looked at me deliberately: "Does Madam think that Mei Niang is wrong to do this?"

I looked at the thin skirt on her body.

It seems that her movements are faster than the previous wet nurse.

I smiled and said, "It's not wrong. Since I belong to you, it's my duty to do things for you and share your worries."

When the maids heard this, they hurriedly said: "Madam——"

Mei Niang already smiled and said: "Did you hear that? This is what Madam said. Now that Madam has spoken, Mei Niang will——"

Before she finished speaking, I already said: "However, doing things for adults and sharing their worries is not just about this. There is also a bigger thing. If you do it well, you will really be able to share your worries for the adults."

."

She frowned and said, "What's the matter?"

"My dear daughter is still very young and needs a lot of diapers every day. But this time when I returned to Beijing, I forgot to bring the maid with me to wash her. Since you want to relieve your worries so much, go ahead and wash my lady's diapers."



Mei Niang's expression suddenly changed: "What did you say? You want me to wash diapers?!"

My eyes turned cold: "Who are you talking to!"

She was glared at by me, and her arrogance dropped, and she said: "Madam, I - I was given by Master Li to the Imperial Envoy. I am here to serve you, I -"

"Yes, you were given by Mr. Li to the Imperial Envoy, so you are yours. If you call me Madam, you should be under my control. If you say you want to share your worries with me, then you should finish what I told you.

It’s not too late to serve your lord again.”

"You——"

I stopped looking at her, turned around and told the maids: "Take her to be washed, and then come out after washing. Don't disturb Master and Master Yang from their official duties. Otherwise, you will not neglect your responsibilities!"

"Yes!"

The maids secretly rejoiced and hurriedly pushed the girl away.

I originally turned around and walked away, but after taking two steps, I felt my body become weak, probably because I was too exhausted just now. I stood there and took a breath, turned around slightly, and looked at the resentful and unwilling look on the girl's face.

There were also several maids around who were snickering. A man stood alone in the dark cabin and stood quietly for a long time.

I suddenly felt very confused. Everything around me, as well as myself, was completely unfamiliar. Compared with waking up from chaos and suddenly realizing that I couldn't remember anything, I was even more panicked.

What am I doing?

What on earth am I doing?

Is this my life? Is this the life I have lived in the past and will continue to live now?

A hand patted my shoulder, and I turned around as if I woke up suddenly. I saw Yang Yunhui standing behind me, looking at my face. He seemed to be surprised and said, "What's wrong with you?"
p>

"..." I looked at him speechless.

"What happened?"

"..." I opened my mouth, my voice slightly hoarse: "It's okay. Are you okay?"

He frowned, looked at the other side, and seemed to understand something, and said: "My lord will have a banquet on the boat tonight. Let me ask you if you will go? Aren't you feeling well?"
p>

I gently stroked the hair on my cheek with my hand, and then I felt the coldness on my cheek. I thought about it and asked him: "Did an adult ask this?"

"No."

…My face is even colder.

Yang Yunhui looked at my increasingly pale face, and seemed to feel something. He hesitated and said: "If Madam is not in good health, you should continue to rest, my official——"

"No need." I raised my head and looked at him and said, "You make arrangements and I will attend."

Yang Yunhui looked at me in surprise, but I just nodded and turned back to the cabin.

After a while, night fell, and the long chirping of apes came from the green mountains on both sides of the bank. Along with the gurgling river below, the night seemed even more peaceful, but on this big ship, it was brightly lit.

Lanterns have already been hung on the deck, and the candlelight in the lobby is flickering, making the night more beautiful.

When I was helped into the lobby, Yuan Yichu was sitting in the front seat drinking. He looked up at me, as if he was a little surprised. I nodded to him lightly, without saying anything else, and sat aside by myself.

.

Tonight, I only glanced at Emei, which was not enough to cover up the paleness of my face. It was a bit awkward in such a lively environment. Even Yang Yunhui noticed it and couldn't help but glance at me several times, just as the maids came up to deliver drinks.

At that moment, a senior officer came up and whispered something in Yuan Yichu's ear, and he nodded.

The chief attendant immediately stood up straight and loudly said: "Music, dance!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a piece of vocal music immediately sounded from the decks on both sides of the cabin. The silk and bamboo were lingering, the bells and drums were ringing, and the long music was played on the ship and rippled along with the river.

At the same time, a group of brightly dressed dancers came up from both sides of the deck, dancing to the music, with colorful clothes flying and ribbons fluttering. In the center of the dancers, an exquisite figure danced forward.

It’s Mei Niang.

She was wearing a colorful dress, and her snow-white arms were as soft as ribbons. She transformed into countless graceful shapes with the music, and her slender waist swayed gently, like willows in the wind or like a snake.

As soon as I saw her, I frowned.

She didn't even look at me, her eyes kept looking straight ahead.

I also slowly turned my head and looked over with her gaze. I saw Yuan Yichu still sitting firmly on the bed, holding a wine glass to his lips, but not drinking it, as if he was savoring the aroma of the wine, and then

As if he was enjoying something, the corners of his thin lips were slightly raised, forming a smile.

Following the music, Meiniang actually danced to Yuan Yichu's side. As the dance music entangled him, her snow-white fingertips and crimson ribbons kept brushing over the man.

My face was a little pale, and the fingers that were holding the wine glass were slightly hard, and the patterns on the wine glass were burned into my skin.

At this moment, Mei Niang suddenly said "Oops" and fell down.

Yuan Yichu stretched out his hand, caught her and held her in his arms.

Everyone around him was startled, and the music stopped abruptly. Mei Niang took advantage of the situation and pressed herself into his arms, with a pink blush on her face, and said softly: "My lord, I admit my guilt."

She said this, but the movements of her hands were completely different.

The hands looked like they were struggling to get up, but they kept lingering on the man. Yuan Yichu lowered his head and glanced at her, seeming to feel something. He slowly let go, and Mei Niang hurriedly knelt in front of him.
p>

"What's going on?"

"Sir, everything is Mei Niang's fault. I hope you can forgive me."

I listened on the sidelines, and my face slowly turned cold.

Yuan Yichu leaned over to help her up, but the hand holding her wrist did not let go. A closer look showed that although the hands were as white as jade, the fingers and palms were red and swollen. Looking carefully at her body, there were also faint

redness and swelling.

"Huh?" He frowned.

Meiniang hurriedly retracted her hand and knelt down again: "My lord, please forgive me, it is Meiniang who cannot serve you well. Madam also wants to share your worries, please just blame Meiniang alone."

"Madam?"
