My Wife is a Psychic

141 Don’t Thank Me

The Marquis Qingyang’s wife sat at the main seat and drank a mouthful of tea. She said with a smile, “Jing City is going to be lively this time. The portraits of the girls have been sent up. Tomorrow, the girls will enter the palace. Maybe we will have a few royal relatives here.”

Xiao Meili sat below, and the corners of her mouth curled up.

“If we’re talking about being the royal family’s relatives. then Madam Xiao will definitely be able to become one. Your family’s Panpan has always been liked by the empress, so she will definitely be able to enter the Eastern Palace this time.” The wife of the judicial review court minister looked at Xiao Meili with envy. Crown Prince Dong Sheng had only decided on the crown princess, but the crown princess’ body was weak. A few days ago, the Imperial Hospital had sent many people to treat her, and no one knew what the results were. If anything happened to the crown princess, Zhao Panpan would definitely take over the position of crown princess.

Xiao Meili’s expression was calm, but she did not show joy in her heart. She smiled and said, “My children have their own lives, so I can’t control them.” At this critical juncture, Xiao Meili naturally did not say much. The concubine selection would be tomorrow, so she would never drag Zhao Panpan down.

“Of course, Madam Xiao is blessed. You have 28 golden flowers in your house. We can’t compare to your blessing.” Consort Lu suddenly laughed. Consort Lu and Zhao Ruifeng’s dead mother were good friends. When they heard Consort Lu’s words, all the ladies present covered their mouths with their handkerchiefs.

That year, Xiao Meili brought her daughter to Jing City and forced Zhao Ruifeng’s mother to her death. This caused a huge uproar in Jing City. If Zhao Panpan was not loved by the empress, no one in Jing City would be willing to be on good terms with Xiao Meili and Zhao Panpan. After all, everyone was worried that one day, they would be forced to death by the woman their husband had raised outside.

Xiao Meili’s face darkened. Consort Lu had given birth to four sons, and now she was using words to run her down. She was resentful in her heart, but she could not say anything. It was her own fault that she was not good enough to give birth to a son.

The banquet ended quickly, and Xiao Meili did not stay any longer. She went to find Zhao Panpan and stared at her for a long time before saying softly, “Panpan, don’t let me down.”

Tonight, countless people in Jing City were destined to lose sleep. However, no one expected that at such a critical moment, the rapist would suddenly go crazy and break into more than ten houses in one night. Even after his arm was injured by someone, he did not give up and continued to break into the next house. He was simply crazy. Moreover, his actions this time were extremely rough. He directly stripped the clothes of the girls who were sleeping and ran away after he was done.

The girls who were sent to the palace at dawn had planned to have a good night’s rest to recuperate for the next day’s selection of concubines. Who would have thought that they would encounter such a thing? if it was not for the tight security of the Zhao residence, even the girls of the Zhao family would have been attacked.

There were six girls from the Zhao family who wanted to participate in the selection. Fortunately, Zhao Panpan was doted on by the empress. After knowing that there was a rapist, she ordered the guards to protect Zhao Panpan. This allowed Zhao Panpan to avoid the rapist’s vicious hands.

That night, the entire Jing City was in a state of panic.

“It’s really lively tonight.” Jiang Xi shook her head. The people in Jing City were really interesting.

Song Yun had also returned that night. It was said that there was a fight between girls at the Jade Spring Brothel and they had blocked the entrance of her house. Therefore, she had come to Jiang Xi’s place to hide. Now, the legend of Seventh Song was spreading throughout Jing City. After all, all the women in Jing City who had fallen into prostitution were fascinated by her.

“I’ve helped you deal with a few potential mothers. You don’t have to thank me.” Song Yun said to Jiang Xi while gnawing on a melon fruit. She was very proud of the fact that she had snatched a woman from Zhao Ruifeng’s father. Jiang Xi glanced at her and suddenly wondered how she had died in her previous life.

“How did you die in your past life?” As soon as Jiang Xi finished speaking, she saw Song Yun turn around and look at her sadly. Then, she pursed her lips and walked away with a strange expression on her face. Song Yun was sad and felt her heart ache. Would she be on the trending searches after she died in her previous life?

Compared to the bustling outside, the Jiang residence was peaceful and quiet, unaffected by the outside world. The next morning, large and small palanquins appeared in Jing City, all carrying the girls to the palace gate. The 17 to 18-year-old girls were as beautiful as flowers. They stood at the palace gate in red and green, full of vitality.
