Chapter 291 The Deaf Musician is a Black-Hearted Lotus 1

"How dare a lowly concubine's daughter dream of sitting with us?"

Lingyao opened her eyes and heard these words.

His eyes followed the gravel-paved ground upwards.

The gorgeous and luxurious skirt and the waist that is not thin but looks very graceful and elegant.

Further up, there was a look of disdain and ridicule on the woman's pretty face.

She glanced at Lingyao coldly with contempt, then turned and left, followed by two rows of guards.

And all these guards were women without exception.

The palm of my hand was still pressing on the stone, and it hurt a little.

However, what made Lingyao pause was not the wound on her hand.

But her hands.

Those were a pair of thin and slender hands, and the key point was that the length was no more than eleven or twelve years old.

Probably due to long-term malnutrition, his fingers are dry and yellow, and you can tell from his fingers that he has not had a good life.

Lingyao stood up and paused again.

Her sight just reached the waists of the female guards.

"Fifteenth Princess, why are you here? Go away quickly, or the eldest princess will see you."

A female guard appeared out of nowhere and came over to talk to Lingyao.

While pulling Lingyao forward, he did not forget to look around, as if he was afraid of being discovered.

Lingyao didn't know her identity yet, so she followed her silently.

The female guard led her through many twists and turns before stopping.

Lingyao walked in.

There were only a few shabby pieces of furniture in the room. The bedding on the bed had been used for who knows how long and was so frayed from washing. There were also two dry and hard cakes on the table.

It's extremely poor.

It's clean though.

The female guard brought her there and left impatiently without even saying hello, as if she was afraid of being infected with some virus.

Lingyao walked to the table, sat down, and began to receive memories.

This is an era of female dominance.

The women serve as officers and soldiers, while the men take care of the household chores at home and are as beautiful as flowers.

The birth of a child is also something that is done by men.

The current queen is the original owner's mother.

The original owner was the fifteenth princess of the current Nangong royal family.

There are many princes and princesses in the royal family, but only a few are favored.

Although most of the princes and princesses were not favored, they still lived a comfortable life.

Except for the original owner, the fifteenth princess, they were almost at the bottom of the food chain among the royal children.

Because the fifteenth princess's father was just a prostitute.

If the Queen visited a brothel, it would damage the reputation of the royal family if it were to be made public.

Therefore, any royal descendant who wanted to maintain his dignity would generally keep the news of going to a brothel secret, let alone the empress.

But I didn’t expect that the original owner’s father lied to the Queen and didn’t take any contraceptive measures.

Gave birth to the original owner.

The royal children cannot be left alone outside, but the royal dignity cannot be challenged either.

When the original owner was brought back to the palace, his father was also sentenced to death.

The queen did not like the original owner's child, so she threw him to be raised by the servants in the harem.

In this palace, the original owner had no background and was not liked.

Life was difficult, and we had to give and take milk in return.

After finally growing up to the age of twelve or thirteen, she met a young man named Baili Liufeng who often visited the palace.

Baili Liufeng was a musician in the palace's wind and string orchestra.

Unlike ordinary men who are as shy as a flower bud about to bloom, Baili Liufeng is a rare charming man in this capital.

She is as beautiful as a blooming rose and has an outgoing personality.

The original owner was attracted to him, but just watched him silently.

After all, the original owner doesn’t really understand things like love at this age.

She just envied Baili Liufeng for being so cool and confident. He was such a man, but she, as a princess, was often ridiculed for being too cowardly.

The original owner didn't expect that Baili Liufeng would actually take the initiative to approach him.

He took the original owner out of the palace to visit the Lantern Festival and played his newly composed music for her.

When the original owner was beaten, he brought medicine and applied it to the original owner.

Nangong Lingyao had never received such care before.

It was natural that I developed feelings for Baili Liufeng.

But she didn't expect that all this was just something Baili Liufeng did deliberately for the Ninth Princess, who was the most beloved by the Queen.

The Ninth Princess and Baili Liufeng had been having a secret affair for a long time.

But the Ninth Princess has not yet inherited the throne, and she is afraid that the Queen will be disappointed in her if she finds out that she likes a musician.

The two of them have always maintained a private relationship.

And Baili Liufeng is not the kind of person who would just sit there and wait for death.

Once he finds that the Ninth Princess is cold to him or has a quarrel with her.

He deliberately came to find Nangong Lingyao, because he knew that the Ninth Princess's people would report these things to her.

Deliberately get close to Nangong Lingyao.

The Ninth Princess was naturally furious.

He took out all his anger on Nangong Lingyao, and Baili Liufeng also achieved his goal of making the Ninth Princess jealous.

After all, many times, if you are not competitive, you lose the initiative.

But the original owner was miserable. He had a hard time in the palace, but at least he was an invisible man.

He was targeted by the Ninth Princess because of Baili Liufeng's incident.

As the Queen's most beloved princess, the Ninth Princess is likely to inherit the Queen's position in the future.

There are many people in the palace who admire her, although no one knows why the Ninth Princess would target the Fifteenth Princess who has no sense of existence.

But that doesn't stop them from following suit.

To please the Ninth Princess.

The original owner, who was unaware of the truth, regarded Baili Liufeng as his last straw.

She wanted Baili Liufeng to take her away.

However, when she was punished to kneel in front of the Ninth Princess' Palace, Baili Liufeng, who had hurried over, walked straight into the palace without even looking at her.

Or maybe he didn't even notice who was kneeling on the ground.

Then the original owner heard the voices of two people talking in the hall.

"Why, do you really like that loser?" The Ninth Princess said in a sarcastic and contemptuous voice.

Baili Liufeng's voice reached the original owner's ears, sounding both familiar and unfamiliar.

"Why did you mention her? Don't you know who I like? If you weren't always mad at me, would I have bothered to find her to mad at you..."

Nangong Lingyao could no longer hear what was said afterwards.

She stood up stupidly, and no one stopped her.

I don’t know how to get back to my residence.

After that day, Nangong Lingyao fell seriously ill. She had been in poor health to begin with, and now she was almost half dead.

He died of depression not long after.

In the current timeline, Baili Liufeng has been close to the original owner for some time.

It was already evening when Lingyao finished reading the message.

The sky was like a black cover, enveloping everyone.

For the entire afternoon, not even a bird bothered to come into the original owner's house, let alone a human.

Lingyao glanced at the cold, hard cakes on the table, then turned and walked towards the place where she got food from each palace in her memory.

Her body is really not up to the task. Not only is she malnourished, but she's also small and not tall.

Lingyao took two deep breaths before accepting this fact.

When she came out of the kitchen with two chicken legs in her pocket and a sullen look on her face, she bumped into someone at the corner.
