"Useless!" Qiu Shu roared.
The maidservant quickly picked up the booklet on the ground and silently put it on the table, not daring to say a word.
She lowered her head even more.
Qiu Shu was so angry that she started crying. Her eyes were bloodshot, and she looked like she was still angry. She had clearly told Zhu Yao that as long as she participated, she would definitely be able to get selected through that layer of relationship. Now that her sister did not allow her to participate, it was even worse than losing her life.
Moreover, she could not participate in the Top Courtesan Competition three years ago because she was underage. Now that she was an adult, if she did not participate this year, she would have to wait for another three years. At that time, she might be married. How could she participate?
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became!
She continued to shout at the maidservant, "Useless thing, get out!"
The maidservant was worried that she would do something dangerous, so she hesitated and did not leave. She said timidly, "Miss, don't be angry. Her Majesty must be doing this for your own good. Don't hurt your body. Besides, it is a foregone conclusion. Miss, why don't you let it go?"
"How dare you talk to me like this!" Qiu Shu grabbed the maidservant's hair, "You little lowly servant, believe it or not, I will cut off your tongue."
The pain from her hair made the maidservant's face wrinkle. She said with a sobbing voice, "Miss, please spare my life."
"Get out!"
The maidservant knelt on the ground with a thud. She lowered her body and said, "I know that Miss is angry and I should not talk too much. But Miss still needs to take care of your body!"
The fire in Qiu Shu's chest was burning. The more she persuaded, the angrier she became. But this maidservant did not care about her life.
"Get out. If you don't get out, I will take your life now."
"Miss …"
"Come in!" Qiu Shu shouted at the door.
Immediately, two servants who were guarding the courtyard came in and saw a maidservant with messy hair kneeling on the ground. Their Miss was burning with anger.
It made people sigh!
The two servants did not dare to make a sound.
Qiu Shu ordered, "Take this reckless girl outside and slap her fifty times. Then cut off her tongue and throw her out!"
Uh!
The two of them were stunned and looked at each other. They were indeed frightened by such an order.
The little girl's eyes widened, and she felt as though her soul had left her body. Before she could even beg for mercy, she had already fainted.
He had wanted to comfort his Young Miss with all the good words he could say, but he didn't think that every word he said would be courting death.
Qiu Shu fiercely kicked the girl's thigh. "Hurry up and pull her out!"
"Yes, yes, yes." The manservant did not dare to say anything else and quickly carried the person out.
Qiu Shu's health was not good to begin with. After this, her face was as pale as a sheet of white paper. She did not seem to have vented enough and began to smash things in the room.
Everything in the room that could be smashed was smashed to pieces by her!
For the entire night, no one dared to go in to persuade her, not even Qiu Shu's parents.
There was a fire in his heart, but after venting it out, perhaps it would be over.
At dawn, Qiu Shu was indeed much calmer. Looking at the things in the room that she had smashed, she had never felt so happy before!
Today was the day of the Courtesan Selection in Yan Jing City. Before dawn, the sound of firecrackers and fireworks could already be heard from outside.
The streets and alleys were bustling with noise and excitement.
Qiu Shu calmed herself down and ordered the servants to dress her up.
She wanted to go to the Immortal's Competing Tower.
Even if she could not participate, she still wanted to go and have a look.
After dressing up exquisitely, she used rouge to cover up the paleness of her face. She also specially changed into the clothes she had prepared for the Courtesan Selection.
At a glance, her beauty was extraordinary.
She went out of the door and boarded a sedan chair to go to the Immortal's Competing Tower.
At the same time —
Li Shiyan had already obtained a seat at the Immortal's Competing Tower. He changed into an elegant robe and prepared to go out.
Xiao Luzi ran in and whispered, "Heir, everything is ready. The sedan chair is now waiting at the back door."
Because the Marquis of Kangding had ordered him not to go out, Xiao Luzi had secretly arranged everything.
Li Shiyan glanced at him. "Fortunately, I did not raise you for nothing."
Xiao Luzi chuckled and looked outside. He said worriedly, "But the Marquis ordered that you are not allowed to go out. Now that the courtyard is full of people, how are you going to go out?"
Li Shiyan already had a plan in mind. He pointed his chin at a large box in the room and said with a shrewd and astute look, "In a moment, go out and call someone in. Tell them to carry that box to the back door."
"Box? Heir, what are you going to do? "
"What do you think?"
"This humble one is stupid, I don't understand." Xiao Luzi looked puzzled.
Li Shiyan looked as if he had expected better from him. He glared at him with disgust and raised his hand to slap his forehead. "Are you stupid?"
Xiao Luzi covered his forehead. "This humble one …"
"Later, I will hide in the box and let them carry it to the back door. Then I can go!"
Hearing this, Xiao Luzi suddenly understood. His eyes brightened. "So that's how it is. Heir, you are really smart. Why didn't I think of this?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Li Shiyan frowned. He whispered a few more words into Xiao Luzi's ear. Then he urged, "Okay, go quickly."
"Okay." Xiao Luzi bowed and went out.
The courtyard was still the same as yesterday. There were many people watching over them. Their eyes stared at the door as if they wanted to stare holes in it.
Xiao Luzi cleared his throat and said, "The Heir said that there is a box of old books in the room. He wants a few of you to go in and carry the box to the back door."
The people looked at each other. Finally, three of them followed Xiao Luzi into the room.
Li Shiyan was not in the room. They only saw that the curtain of the bed had been pulled down and a person was lying on the bed.
And the box was placed beside the bed!
Xiao Luzi said, "Be gentle. The Heir is still sleeping."
"Yes."
The three servants moved to the side of the bed and were about to lift the box. One of them inadvertently glanced at the big bed that was covered by the curtain. Fortunately, Xiao Luzi immediately stood in front of him and urged, "Don't look anymore. Hurry up and do your work. If the Heir wakes up and you still haven't done your work, you will definitely suffer."
"Yes, yes, yes."
The three servants knew their Heir's temperament and hurried to do their work.
The box was very heavy. It was very strenuous to lift it.
"Why is this box so heavy?" Someone said.
Xiao Luzi said, "It's just some books. Of course it's heavy. Stop nagging and hurry up."
Under the urging of the servants, they carried the box to the back door and put it down.
All of them were sweating and their palms were red.
They did not notice that Li Shiyan was hiding in the box.
After the servants left, Xiao Luzi looked around and quickly opened the box.
Li Shiyan was so bored that he almost died!
