Ming Lengchen took the court ladies’ portraits, examining them with interest. When he reached the third portrait, he was captivated by the woman’s serene and elegant temperament. Her clear eyes were particularly enchanting, her beautiful features beyond description. Her untainted quality was mesmerizing – she seemed like a fairy descended to earth!
“Who is she?” Ming Lengchen asked.
“Reporting to Your Majesty, she is Mei Xiangye’s second daughter, Mei Ci Yu, fourteen years old,” Liu Gongong reported accurately, sensing the Emperor’s great interest in this woman.
“Summon her tonight,” Ming Lengchen commanded.
“Yes, this servant will go immediately,” he replied, retreating silently.
The narrative continues with Mei Ci Yu’s unexpected challenges in the imperial palace, including a mysterious skin condition and a potentially fraught imperial summons.
Yan Baomei allowed the naked man before her to remove her veil, slowly moving her lips closer to his. Unexpectedly, upon seeing her appearance, the naked man kicked her off the dragon bed without hesitation, his face showing shock – could her beauty have overwhelmed him?
“You, you’re so ugly! Quickly get out of here!” Ming Lengchen said coldly. This was far too different from the person in the painting; this was clearly a monster! Just thinking about the moment he saw her almost made him faint – it was too ridiculous!
Yan Baomei puzzledly touched her face, only to find it uneven and slightly painful to the touch. What was going on? Wasn’t she supposed to have the beauty she wanted? Could it be… Wuwu! What nonsense is this!!
This was the first meeting between Mei Siyu and Ming Lengchen, a night of serving that was passed in shock and awkwardness!
“Mei Siyu is conferred as Mei Fei, to remain in the Yangfeng Palace for life and not allowed to leave the palace,” Ming Lengchen said coldly. If not for her being the daughter of the prime minister, he would have ordered her execution long ago. Considering Mei Ganfeng’s loyalty to the country, he could only handle it this way for now! He would never allow her to leave the palace, for she was his shame – even if she died, she would die in the Yangfeng Palace!
