Chapter 11 — The Portrait That Condemned the Noble Consort
From the moment I returned from rebirth and decided to strike first against Hoa Ngoc Nghien, I was prepared to commit myself to the crime. Moreover, in my previous life, when I was young, I had to be a nun for ten years! Ten years as a nun! I was forced to spend ten years in meditation - ten full years! I still wanted to marry, and the Emperor had chosen me partly for my talent and partly for my beauty. As for me, I look at people, purely because of lust. In my previous life, I kept company with the ancient Buddhist green light, lonely and cold. To live a new life, of course I have to rush into a place of prosperity and brocade! I said with ambition: "Miss Tong is willing, Your Majesty." 23 On the day of my investiture, Hoa Ngoc Nghien rushed into the ceremony, holding a brooch and rushing towards me, screaming that she wanted to kill me. The Emperor promptly discovered it and raised his hand to block it for me. The back of the Emperor's hand was bleeding. Hoa Ngoc Nghien couldn't believe it: "Your Majesty, do you like this slut? Do you know what she did to my concubine?" "Your Highness, you should ask yourself whether all of this is something you brought on yourself!" In Hoa Ngoc Nghien's ear, Tong Cam Chau's words suddenly rang out: "I absolutely will not let you return to being a noble consort." It's like the curse has been fulfilled. Hoa Ngoc Nghien hugged her face and cried loudly. She doesn't understand. It's clear that she suffered all the wrongs, so why didn't the emperor protect her and everything was just simply ignored? Until she saw the people around her, those who had previously flattered her, now all looked at her with disgust on their faces. The Emperor looked down contemptuously: "Hoa Ngoc Nghien, see if you still look human now?" Her current face is black and red. The two words "rapist" on the left cheek are even more glaring and prominent. She believed in folk remedies to wash off the raw paint, which ended up completely destroying her otherwise healthy skin. At this moment, even though she was wearing a brocade dress and tricked herself into wearing a pair of pearls on her ears, she had long since lost her former beauty. On the contrary, it looks extremely strange and disharmonious. The Emperor was completely disgusted with her: "Noble Consort Hoa, you are so crazy and hot-tempered, it seems that you are no longer suitable for living in the palace. How about I take you to the cold palace and let you reflect and think for yourself!" "Emperor." I spoke up and advised: "Shouldn't it be better for you to go to a nunnery to meditate?" "I believe that only Buddha Dharma can wash away your impure soul." The Emperor looked at me appreciatively: "Your Highness is truly extremely compassionate." Hoa Ngoc Nghien couldn't believe it: "Your Majesty, I once saved people's lives!" "Save my life, I have given you three years of glory and wealth, and have forgiven you countless times. The grace of saving your life has long been paid off." "Guards, take my consort away!" The noble consort struggled desperately. I came to see her off for a while. I raised my hand to caress her colorful, bumpy face, smiling brightly like a flower: "Niang, I once said that these hands of mine can peel off a layer of skin from your body." "Look, didn't I do it?" Hoa Ngoc Nghien looked at me like I was looking at a devil. She was so frightened that her whole body trembled. I turned her chin from side to side, admiring the permanent ink on her face. That birthmark is like a mountain in a watercolor painting. The two words "rapist" after being cleaned by her using folk remedies, turned into two long little devils that seemed to be dancing. I was very satisfied: "This face of yours, why can't it be considered a masterpiece of mine?" 24 Hoa Ngoc Nghien completely collapsed. She even opened her mouth to bite me to death, but was held tightly by the guard's head. I leaned close to her ear and said darkly: "That day you stole my embroidered ball, making it impossible for me to attract the husband I wanted." "Then I can only come and steal your man." I touched her bald head and smiled both compassionately and tolerantly: "Your highness, it's your turn to become a nun. Please obediently accept your destiny before the Buddha!" Hoa Ngoc Nghien was taken to a nun's monastery, became a nun, and did not even have to shave her head again. Prince Ninh also wanted to pray for her. N
But he forgot, the person the emperor values the most right now is me. I just need to blow a few words on the pillow, saying that Prince Ninh seems to be especially protective of this noble royal sister-in-law. The emperor was not happy and sent Prince Ninh to a cold and miserable remote land under orders not to return to the capital. It is said that after the concubine came to the nun's monastery, the Truong family and Lam family, who had offended her, sent people to "serve" the old concubine very attentively. In my previous life, I had to suffer in a nunnery for ten years before I went crazy. Changed to Hoa Ngoc Nghien, in less than half a year she went crazy, her mind was unclear, and she was torn apart by others. Of course, there are contributions from the Truong family and the Lam family. Two great families with a deep hatred always have thousands of ways to torment people. No need to elaborate. 25 Actually, before I officially entered the palace, the six sisters of the flower thieves asked me to fulfill my promise and let her leave.
