Chapter 47: What she lacked was an opportunity for revenge.

  The First Genocide Hatred

  "Little fairy! Little fairy!" Mei'er patted her slightly painful forehead, and she, who was born to like quietness, was even more annoyed and disordered by the noise. Looking around, she found that Xiaoxian was no longer there, and at this time, the sky had already brightened up.

  "Saintess! You're awake!" Little Fairy walked in from outside carrying water.

  The noise outside grew louder and louder. Mei'er's eyebrows furrowed even tighter, asking: "Little fairy, what happened outside? Why is it so noisy?"

  "The slave girl doesn't know what exactly happened either, she just heard that a palace maid died at the gate of the neighboring palace!" Xiaoxian said while attending to Mei'er as she changed clothes.

  Mei'er's heart skipped a beat, wasn't the palace next door Fengchen Palace? It seemed that the miserable cry last night was not her illusion.

  Hurry up and finish combing, Mei'er also lifted her foot and walked out: "Little fairy, let's go take a look!"

  "Saint girl..." Xiaoxian originally wanted to tell Mei'er that they had just arrived and shouldn't interfere with other people's business, but Mei'er was quick on her feet and had already stepped out the door, so she could only follow after her.

  Mei'er hastily left the Hongye Palace gate, subconsciously heading towards the Fengchen Palace on one side. This road was all too familiar to her, wasn't it?

  Every place has the image of Wu Chen'er from that year, and every time there are too many feelings.

  Just as I walked to the entrance of Fengchen Palace, I saw a group of palace maids and eunuchs gathered there, chattering about something.

  Mei'er half-closed her beautiful eyes and looked over, only to see a woman lying on the ground, motionless, as if she had stopped breathing.

  Xiao Xian supported Mei'er as they walked over, intentionally clearing her throat lightly. Those palace maids and slaves didn't recognize Mei'er, but from her attire and appearance, they had already guessed her identity, and couldn't help but bow their heads and retreat to the side.

  Mei'er arrived at the side of the palace maid who had already died, took a closer look, and couldn't help but take a cold breath. Only then did she notice that the woman's clothes were gone, and what was left was a bloody mess. What was even more frightening was that there was a hole in the woman's chest, about the size of a bowl, and it was empty inside. It seemed that she had been raped to death and then had her heart dug out!

  It's outrageous! Mei'er's beautiful eyes turned cold, and in this deep palace, there are actually people who dare to do such beastly things, it's indeed unbelievable!

  This woman's experience must have been very painful, because her face still retains the extremely painful expression at the time of death. The greatest pain a person can suffer is to have their heart cut out and bones scraped, this woman was luckier than Wu Chen'er, at least she died before having her heart cut out!

  Just then, one of the palace maids whispered: "It's too scary, it must be the ghost of Concubine Chen again!"

  What the... Wu Chen'er is already dead, yet there are still people slandering her!

  Mei'er's sharp eyes involuntarily turned to the palace maid, staring directly at her, suppressing her own anger, and shouted: "What did you say?"

  That palace maid probably didn't expect that this delicate and holy girl would have such a terrifying gaze, scaring her so much that her legs went soft and she knelt down: "In response to the Holy Girl's words, something like this has happened before, every time our deceased sisters died in this way, so...so, we slaves speculate whether it was the late Princess Chen coming back for revenge!"

  Wu Chen'er is considered an unclean woman by everyone, and her death was a cruel one. Everyone thinks she's a vengeful spirit who won't rest in peace, coming back to harm people after death. This is because every time a palace maid dies, they're first raped and then killed, with their heart also being dug out afterwards!

  While Mei'er has not been granted a title yet, so people in the palace can only address her as Holy Girl!

  "Absurd! The person is already dead, how can they possibly come out to harm people?" Mei'er shouted loudly, scaring the palace maids and slaves into silence.

  "Her Majesty the Queen has arrived!" Just then, a sudden report came in.

  Mei'er raised her head to look, and saw Ye Ziqing, dressed in a noble attire, surrounded by a group of palace maids and eunuchs, walking towards her with a gentle smile.

  Everyone around her knelt down, Mei'er still stood upright until Yezi approached, then she slightly bowed her head: "Greetings to the Empress!"

  Ye Zi Qing's gaze lingered on Mei Er's face for a moment before he gently pulled her hand: "Sister, no need to be polite. I heard from someone early this morning that something happened here and was afraid of scaring you! So I rushed over in a hurry. Sister, weren't you scared?"

  That voice was gentle and friendly to the extreme, if not for Mei'er having all of Wu Chen'er's memories, she would have been deceived by her fake image. She secretly sneered in her heart, but her face remained calm: "The Empress Dowager is being considerate, I just arrived a moment ago too!"

  Hmph! Scared? Don't be ridiculous! She's a seasoned killer who deals with blood every day, crawling out of piles of dead bodies time and again. Do you think she'd be intimidated by this little scene?

  "That's good." Yezi seemed to have let out a sigh of relief, and glanced lightly at the palace maid who had already died on the ground. Her eyes didn't seem to hold much doubt, as if such things were already normal in her view.

  "Someone come and quickly clean up this place, if the Holy Maiden is frightened, the palace will only ask you!" Her voice was as weak as before, but carried a sense of majesty.

  With her as the imperial concubine and empress who is revered by the entire palace, who dares not to obey her?

  In the blink of an eye, someone hastily carried away the dead palace maid, and the pool of blood on the ground was quickly cleaned up.

  While they were cleaning up, Mei'er deliberately left a heart's eye. Except for the place where the palace maid was lying down with bloodstains, there were no other bloodstains anywhere else, not even a trace. Based on her many years of experience, she inferred that this was not the first crime scene.

  This palace maid was killed by someone and then placed at this palace gate, with the simple purpose of shifting the blood debt onto the dead person's head.

  "Sister, did you sleep well last night?" Yezi seemed extremely concerned about Mei'er, holding her hand from the moment they met.

  "In response to the Empress's words, Mei'er slept very well last night!" If they were killed, she would sleep even more soundly! But can she really sleep well when sleeping right next to her own grave?

  "That's good, I was worried you'd be uncomfortable here. From now on, let's call each other sisters. If there's anything that makes you uncomfortable, just tell me and we can help each other out - between us sisters, everything is fine!" Ye Ziqing still had that same kindly smile, one that could make people drop their guard completely.

  The palace maids all secretly praised the virtuous and gentle empress in their hearts, but little did they know that you can't judge a person by appearance or words, sometimes what you see and hear may not be entirely true.

  Mei'er can hear Yeziqing's inner voice, so she naturally knows that she is insincere and also her sister! Hmph! What a knife-concealing smile from this sister of hers!

  Her name is Mei Er, but don't call her Wu Chen Er! She will never repeat Wu Chen Er's mistakes!

  "Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking such good care of me. I was just about to go and pay my respects to you, but I didn't expect you to come here!" Mei'er also cooperated with her, putting on a surprised and delighted expression as if she were a new bride being favored by the emperor.

  "We're all sisters, who comes to see whom is not the same, I'm worried that the Emperor's temper will wrong you!" She naturally knew that Shang Li Tian didn't come to Hong Ye Palace yesterday.

  Mei'er smiled faintly, her lips curling up in a subtle smile: "Your Majesty's words are too kind, the Emperor is busy with state affairs and also has Your Majesty's favor, I dare not be presumptuous!" She secretly held back her breath, forcing her small face to flush red, just like a newlywed woman's shy demeanor.

  The leaves were delighted in her heart, but on her face, there was more apology: "Sister, last night I also advised the emperor for a long time, but the emperor...". Then, as if making a promise: "Sister, rest assured, I will definitely persuade the emperor!"

  "Then trouble the empress!" Hum! Persuade? She wouldn't be bothered to be a woman who separates from heaven, it's best if Tian Shang never comes to this Red Leaf Palace again, otherwise, she fears that she can't control herself and will kill him.

  Yezi's expression changed slightly as she smiled faintly: "Little sister, would you mind if big sister went to your palace for a visit?"

  "Her Majesty condescends to stoop, how could Mei'er possibly mind? Your Majesty, please!" This is what they mean by "saying one thing but meaning another". From start to finish, Yezi affectionately called her "little sister", but Mei'er consistently addressed her as "Your Majesty the Empress".

  Hmph! Sisters? Would she be sisters with an enemy? Not even in the next life!

  At that moment, Mei'er really wanted to take action and kill this vicious woman, but for Wu Chen's sake of 'thousand times repayment', she endured it.

  Wu Chen'er is right, killing this woman with one knife would be too cheap for her. The pain of being heartless and the hatred of exterminating a family, she wants to make Ye Ziqing taste enough!

  After entering the Red Leaf Palace of Mei'er, Yezi Qing deliberately glanced around: "Sister, this palace is simple and not as good as your Western Xia Holy Maiden Palace. If there's anything lacking, just tell me, and I'll send someone to add it for you!"

  "The queen has a heart, Mei'er is here, nothing is missing!" If you must say what's missing, then what she lacks is an opportunity for revenge!
