Chapter 2 — The Secret Behind the Face of the First Beauty
"Miss, the maids brought the medicinal herbs to the slaves themselves. The slaves only refined the beauty pills and then gave them back to them. The only thing they earned was a little money for making the medicine."
She bent down, lifted my chin, and her sharp nails dug aggressively into my cheek. She looked at me suspiciously.
"You already have a beautiful beauty, why are you still so ugly?"
I endured the pain and tremblingly replied:
"Miss Great Lady, the more naturally beautiful a person is, the more effective the beauty pill will be. This servant is born with an ugly appearance, no matter how many beauty pills he drinks, it will only be in vain."
Hearing the words "born beautiful", she proudly raised her hand to smooth her bun.
"From today onwards, you come to my hospital to serve me. This beauty ring cannot be sold to anyone else, otherwise you will be killed by chaos!"
"You probably don't want to be like that old prostitute, stripped naked and beaten to death in the street."
She covered her mouth and giggled, as if she had just discovered something extremely interesting. The two great maids standing next to them, Cuc Thao and Mai Huong, also laughed loudly.
"That old prostitute even opened a medical clinic. As a result, even the lady's illness could not be cured."
"I heard that she often examines the prostitutes in the palace. She probably learns tricks to seduce men from them."
I bowed my head to the ground, hating Mazu in my heart, my teeth were clenched, but I still had to pretend to obediently obey.
"The slave obeys orders, listen to the First Lady's instructions for everything."
That night, I looked in the mirror under the light, the corners of my lips curled up into a satisfied smile. My face has been smeared with a layer of medicinal fluid that does not dissolve when exposed to water, intentionally disguised to make it worse. As for those maids, they didn't usually eat well, everyone was yellow and thin. After using beauty products, blood circulation naturally improves, skin becomes whiter, and appearance is also more beautiful. That will definitely make the Eldest Lady who is madly pursuing beauty pay attention to me. But beauty pills, if used too much, will make women infertile. It was originally a secret medicine specifically provided to courtesans in the palace. The eldest lady is selfish, cold, and will definitely want to monopolize the beauty ring. As for the other maids, they are not used much and will not affect future marriages and children. Under the moonlight, I quietly memorized a remedy that I had personally improved. The beauty effect will be stronger, but at the same time the toxicity will also be greater. After Eldest Miss used the beauty potion I gave her, in less than half a month, she was so beautiful that others didn't dare to look straight at her. During the royal concubine selection banquet of the Crown Prince's palace, she overwhelmed the capital's number one beauty, successfully making the Crown Prince fall in love with her, and the two were eager to immediately make an engagement contract. The crown prince has a handsome appearance and is the dream man of many noble ladies. The eldest lady defeated a series of noble ladies, throughout that month, every step was filled with pride. I hid myself in a corner, silently smiling coldly. Young lady, are you prepared to welcome your death? Since the engagement was arranged, the Crown Prince came every few days to invite the Eldest Lady out. Mai Huong and Cuc Thao are close maids of the Great Lady, and it is difficult to avoid contact with the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince has a gentle personality and occasionally smiles and talks a few words with the two of you. The eldest lady saw everything and was so jealous that she crumpled the handkerchief in her hand, but still tried to maintain a dignified and generous smile on her face. Going to the lake today, the Crown Prince complimented Cuc Thao's eyes, which were very beautiful and sparkling with spirit. As soon as she returned to the palace, the First Lady immediately became angry and fiercely slapped Cuc Thao.
"You ungrateful bastard! This young lady hasn't even gotten married yet, can't you wait to crawl into the Crown Prince's bed?"
Cuc Thao knelt down to pray.
"The slave is gone! Please spare my life, miss!"
The First Lady's red lips coldly uttered a few words.
"Human, take out its eyes for the dogs to eat! Let's see how it can still use those eyes to seduce the Crown Prince!"
"Since you're so thirsty for a man, this young lady will fulfill it for you! This maidservant is for you all, just enjoy it to your heart's content."
The tall guards immediately laughed lasciviously and dragged Cuc Thao away. Cuc Thao struggled and loudly begged for her life. Ten fingertips scratched the ground, creating a long trail of blood.
