She didn't know when the phoenix in the palm of her right hand had a drop of red crystal water. She was stunned for a moment. Her fingertips gently touched the water drop, which soaked in her wound.
Ye Zhen didn't care much at first, but the wound on her palm was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. She widened her eyes in horror. What's going on?
She turned over her palm. Was she dazzled? Her palm, which had just been badly mutilated by her nails, now had only a few shallow fingernail marks.
Impossible! She opened her left palm. The wound was still oozing with blood. The tingling pain passed from her palm to her heart. It could be seen that the injury on her right hand just now was not an illusion, but …
Ye Zhen's heart was full of doubts. She didn't know what happened at all. Her palm, which was bloody a moment ago, now only had scars left. If it weren't for the bizarre experience of dying once, she would have screamed in fright.
That red water drop! Ye Zhen carefully recalled what had happened just now. The only thing she could think of was the drop of water flowing from the eyes of the phoenix that soaked the wound on her right palm. She stared at the eyes of the phoenix and thought of the water drop in her mind. Then, she saw a crystal clear water drop slowly appear from the eyes of the phoenix.
Ye Zhen's heart pounded, and a terrible suspicion appeared in her mind. She slowly smeared the water drop on the wound on her left palm. Although there was only one drop, it was enough to soak the wound.
The bleeding wound slowly stopped bleeding, and the torn flesh began to heal …
Why is this water drop the same as the spiritual spring?
Ye Zhen's face turned pale. She stared at the phoenix on her palm, thinking of the water drop coming out again. Then, another drop of water flowed out of the eyes of the phoenix.
"…" Ye Zhen didn't know what to say. Did God treat her so well after she was reborn and gave her such a magical ability?
Her heart was filled with unspeakable panic. She put her hand in the basin and watched the water drop disappear into the water. Her hand was soaked in the water. After a long time, she wiped her hand clean and decided to have a good sleep first. Maybe she would wake up tomorrow and find that it was just a dream.
This night, Ye Zhen didn't sleep well. She dreamed all night that her identity was discovered by Lu Lingzhi and then she was swallowed by the fire again.
"Third Young Miss, did you have a nightmare again?" The maid came in from outside and saw Ye Zhen sitting on the bed gasping for breath. She knew that the girl was having nightmares again.
He didn't know what was going on with the Third Young Lady. She seemed to have nightmares every day. Even if she drank some tranquilizer, she didn't get better.
Ye Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and looked down at her hands. She was slightly stunned. How did they become so smooth and smooth? Because Lu Yaoyao was used to being wild since she was young, her hands were not as smooth as other girls. Instead, there was a layer of calluses on her palms, and there were scars of all sizes on the back of her hands. But today, although her hands were not white enough, they were already a lot smoother.
She looked at the basin where she washed her hands yesterday. Was it because of … the water droplets?
"Is the water in the basin still there?" Ye Rou asked the maid beside her. Only then did she realize that she didn't know the names of the two maids serving her.
"Replying to the Third Young Lady, the water in the basin has been poured. Yesterday, this slave saw that the flowers and plants outside were a little yellow and watered them. Today, they grew very well, so this slave watered another basin …" Seeing that Ye Zhen finally took the initiative to speak, the maid couldn't help but say a few more words.
Ye Zhen was stunned. Yesterday morning, the water she used to wash away the water droplets was poured in the courtyard by the maid. "What's your name?"
"Third Young Lady, this slave's name is Dai Mei." Dai Mei said with a smile.
Ye Zhen smiled and asked Dai Mei to change her clothes for her. Now that she was well, she couldn't continue to be a sick lady in this house. Her deep hatred could not be avenged by sitting in the house. Ye Zhen smiled and let Dai Mei change her clothes for her.
After breakfast, Ye Zhen came to the upper room with the maid to pay her respects to the old madam.
Just as he walked out of his small courtyard, he saw Fourth Miss Lu slowly walking over from the other side. Fourth Miss Lu, who was not considered outstanding in appearance, had an otherworldly temperament. That noble and aloof attitude made her look more like a lady from an aristocratic family rather than a merchant.
"Fourth Sister." Adhering to the important principle of gaining the trust of the Lu family, Ye Zhen took the initiative to greet the Fourth Young Lady of Lu. "Are you going to greet grandmother, too? It just so happens that I … "
The Fourth Young Lady of Lu looked at Ye Zhen coldly and arrogantly. "What time is it now? Third Sister is thinking of greeting grandmother. If you want to pretend to be filial, you have to show some sincerity."
Ye Zhen was stunned for a moment. This Fourth Young Lady of Lu's words were really mean. She got up late because of nightmares, but when it comes to filial piety, will she still be filial to the Lu family? It's just an act.
"Fourth Sister is right. I will definitely be more sincere in the future." Ye Zhen said with a smile, not letting people see the sarcasm in her eyes.
The Fourth Young Lady of Lu looked at Ye Zhen contemptuously, raised her chin and left proudly.
The Fourth Young Lady of Lu was really proud and arrogant. It was clear that she looked down on Ye Zhen who came from a small place in the border town. She regarded Ye Zhen as a wild girl raised in a remote and desolate place, which was incomparable to her noble status as a young lady.
"Third Young Lady, don't be angry. The Fourth Young Lady is like this. Because she has some talent, she was praised by the teacher in the Women's College. She looks down on other girls at home and regards herself as a talented woman." Dai Mei was worried that the Third Young Lady would be hurt and comforted her in a low voice.
With Fourth Young Lady of Lu's temperament, it was estimated that she did not have much popularity in the college. Ye Zhen smiled faintly. "I just came to the capital and there are many things I don't understand. You have to remind me more in the future."
Dai Mei hurriedly said that she did not dare, but she still told Ye Zhen about the temperament of several girls.
Although the Fourth Young Lady of Lu was born of a concubine, Old Madam Lu also attached great importance to her daughters. She also asked Lu Lingzhi to send them to the Women's College to study. Although the Second Young Lady had also been to the college before, due to her mediocre performance, there was nothing particularly outstanding about her. She graduated at the age of sixteen and had been staying at home without being engaged.
After the new emperor ascended the throne, the Lu family's status rose with the tide. The Fourth Young Lady of Lu was quite talented and famous. Her limelight in the college was getting bigger and bigger. Therefore, she more and more regarded herself as a proper young lady and even looked down on the Second Young Lady.
Ye Zhen's mouth was slightly curved. It was not easy to win a reputation in the college. She had also studied in the Women's College for a year. Unfortunately, she married Mo Rongzhan at the age of thirteen and did not go to the college for a year. She and Mo Rongzhan had never consummated their marriage. After Mo Rongzhan left the capital, she went to the college again and learned all the knowledge in only one year and graduated first.
The Princess of Qin was once a legend in the Women's College. However, no matter how hard she worked, she was just an insignificant person to Mo Rongzhan.
"The most famous college in the capital is not the official school, but the Women's College. I heard that it was opened by Empress Duan Hui of the previous dynasty and has a history of a hundred years." Dai Mei thought that Ye Zhen did not know the origin of the Women's College and explained.
How could Ye Zhen not know how the Women's College came about? It was opened by Empress Duan Hui of the previous dynasty. She was the real legend. Not only did she win the favor of Emperor Rui, but she also changed the status of women in the world.
