two cold

Jang Geum was allowed to help in the lunch room because of his contribution this time.Seeing Jang Jin looking around when he came in, she couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

The answer was shaking his head like a tambourine.

Although Jinying had doubts in her heart, she had to temporarily suppress them.

It has been raining non-stop for the past few days, and there is a lot of work in the dining room. It seems that Jinying has not seen Jang Geum for a long time.

It's not right to say it's been a long time, because she and Jang Jin help each other in the dining room every day, but she feels that Jang Jin's distraction is getting more and more obvious, and she won't even go to the gazebo at night.

She had to rehearse again and again in her heart, how many times did Jang Geum and Master Min meet?No, Ye Li Changjin is always with her, it can't be a tryst under the moon; unless it was a chance encounter while performing official duties on weekdays, but the performance of the two of them that day was not just a nodding acquaintance...

This kind of doubt is like a thorn in his heart, but Jin Ying can't tell anyone.Deep down in her heart, she believed in Jang Geum, but on the other hand, she resented Jang Geum for betraying her. Even though Jang Geum didn't know that he was the brother she liked in the private house, she intuitively blamed Jang Geum for not being so close .

Already flustered during the day, after Empress Cui Shanggong found her into the premises and asked her to do that thing, Jinying's anger completely boiled over.

"I do not want to!"

"What? Don't want to?"

"Yes, ma'am, I don't want to." Jinying said stubbornly. "Even if our family doesn't do this kind of thing, we can do it. With these talents, we can be promoted to the most noble palace. This kind of thing is only done by those who want to climb the dragon and become the phoenix..."

"You still shut up!" Cui Shanggong slammed the table and stared at Jinying coldly. "It seems that you don't understand this matter too much! As you said, our Cui family's ancestors are all capable to become the most noble palace empresses, but qualifications are just qualifications. In the court, It is impossible to reach the highest status just because the qualifications are met. Do you think that our Cui family will be passed down from generation to generation because other noble palaces are not qualified to be the highest palace? You are so smart, how can you not understand this truth? ?”

And what about the cooking stories she had heard?What about those previous emperors who made her proud?

"In the court, you must rely on those powerful people. Helping them do something behind their backs, this is the reason why our family has existed until now. Although our position, although we cannot become a scholar-bureaucrat family, we can get more wealth than nobles .Because we help the royal family and nobles, we can be richer than the nobles. This is the destiny of our family."

No, this should not be her fate!In this way, the self-esteem she has used to belittle others for a long time will only become a ridiculous deception. "You can instruct other people to do it, why must I do it myself?"

"After becoming a wife, one must do a great thing. This is the training policy that has been passed down from the previous generations of empresses to the present." Cui Shanggong took a deep breath. "You have to experience fear to be strong. I did something like this when I first became a wife, and even killed a friend of the same school because of it."

The low voice reminded Jinying of the gloomy and gloomy past when her aunt narrated about Han Shanggong.

"The second reason is, who can you trust in the court?" Cui Shanggong spread the brocade cloth on the table. "Go, go to the dining room and hide this spell. This spell will turn the prince in the empress's belly into a princess. In case the empress gives birth to a prince, not to mention Mr. Wu Jianhu, even our Cui family will You will be in unprecedented danger. Do you understand?"

Seeing that Jinying remained motionless, Cui Shanggong emphasized his tone. "You can't refuse, and you can't break away from you. You have to accept the fate of your family, go and hide this spell in the dining room."

"I won't do it."

"Jinying..."

"I will never do this." Jinying said again through gritted teeth, and walked away.But Cui Shanggong's last words were like a ghost, following her like a shadow.

You will definitely come back to me, just like I did...

Back at the place, Jinying could no longer hold back her tears.What her aunt said was the greatest humiliation to her!

What was the ego that she had always had in her mind?As the supreme emperor's woman in the world, preparing the best imperial meal for the emperor is the highest state and reputation she expects after abandoning everything.If you have to rely on means to get it, how is it different from those villains who pretended to be fake and jumped from pariah to scholar-bureaucrat overnight?

She didn't enter the palace to become a despicable person, she wanted to defeat her opponents to become the most noble palace!Thinking of this, Jinying hurriedly got up and rushed to Janggeum's place.

"What are you doing? Jinying, you scared me!" Hearing the sound of the door being opened, he caressed his heart in shock.

Jinying searched around and asked loudly, "Where is Jang Geum? Where is Jang Geum?!"

Lian Sheng had never seen Jin Ying so groggy, stuttering and unable to speak. "She...she went to the dining room to help Pu Nei on duty..."

"Really?" Jinying closed the door heavily, leaving behind Liansheng who didn't know what happened.

How stupid I am.Even if I saw Jang Geum, so what?Promise to Jang Geum that he will compete fairly with her?Will you tell the truth about all the uneasiness and weakness in your heart?

As for Jang Geum, what did he confess to himself?I'd rather go to the dining room every night than see her more often. Could it be that she is just a dispensable existence in Jang Geum's heart?

She put Jang Geum on the scale of life, and she was just like dust in the eyes of the other party, what an irony!

Jinying walked back to the place in despair. After several days of depression and what happened to Cui Shanggong today, she lay on the bed turning and turning, as if falling into an endless nightmare.

In the picture, for a while, the head of the line is holding the child, telling her that they are her family;After a while, she saw her mother holding the young her hand, telling her earnestly that she must become the noblest palace in the imperial kitchen; when she came back to her senses, she saw her aunt's indifferent and tearful face.When she went out to look for the golden rooster, she was holding hands with Jang Geum, but she saw Jang Geum holding another person...

When she woke up from the dream crying and screaming, she just randomly grabbed the things around her and smashed it, which made A Chang and Ling Lu who were in the same room startled!

"Jinying, what's wrong with you?"

"Get out! Get out of here!" Jinying covered her heart and beat the ground heavily with one hand.

"But you..."

Jinying stared at Ling Lu coldly, her eyes filled with coldness. "I say it again, get out!"

Who can come and save her?

Jinying was suffering for her own conscience. At this moment, she heard a sound from outside──

"Jangjin! Jinying, why are you uncomfortable?" It was Jang Geum's concerned voice. "What's wrong, where did everyone else go?"

Jinying was even more angry when he heard about it. "You get out!"

"Have you had the doctor come to see it? You should lie down first."

"I told you to get out!"

"Lie down first, don't do this..."

"Get out! Get out!" Jinying wanted to wave Janggeum's hand away, but he pulled too hard, Janggeum tripped forward, and followed this momentum, Jinying pressed onto Janggeum.

There is almost no distance between the two of them now, Jin Ying puts one elbow on Jang Jin's chest, feeling the sound of the other's heartbeat that is gradually accelerating. "Why don't you go out!"

"I……"

"Why did you come, but not earlier?" Jinying suddenly softened his tone, his expression full of confusion.

Jang Geum blushed for some reason, pushed Jinying uncomfortably and said. "Then... I'll help you and invite the medical lady..."

A burst of anger rose in Jinying's heart in vain, causing her to churn, and she kissed Jang Geum's lips without thinking—

With the aroma of green grass, like the dew dripping on the lotus leaves, Jinying only felt the smell of her lips was fragrant and soft, and lost her mind in a trance.

At this moment, he was pushed away by Jang Geum!

Jinying, who was pushed to the ground, opened his eyes again, and only saw Jang Geum fleeing from the corner of his eyes, leaving the house without hesitation.

Jang Geum, did you abandon me after all?

In the middle of the night, Jinying quietly came to Cui Shanggong's place.

"Give me the spell, please."

With a clear sneer on the corner of Cui Shanggong's mouth, he handed the spell to his niece. "Jinying..."

"I accept the fate you said, but this fate will definitely end in my generation." As Cui Shanggong once said, if harming someone can save someone's life, then she would rather sacrifice herself, No one else will suffer the same fate again. "Trust me, I will definitely do it."

Anyway, I have already fallen into the abyss of darkness.

--------------------------------------

"Jang Geum, it looks like you didn't sleep well all night?" the first medical lady came in with the medicinal materials and asked concerned.

It seems that the herbal medicine applied in the morning still can't reduce the obvious dark circles. "Yes."

"It's been almost two years since you came to Jeju Island. I can understand why you couldn't fall asleep when you first came here, but do you still suffer from insomnia now?"

Jang Geum took a deep breath. "Just thinking about the grievances of Empress Han Shanggong..."

"That's not the only thing you're thinking about, is it?" The first medical woman interrupted Jang Geum bluntly. "Every time you think of this matter, you always have resentment on your face. But sometimes, you are alone and absent-minded."

"Have it?"

"This look seems to miss someone..."

Chang Jin blushed, and hurried forward to help untie the rope of medicinal materials. "The first medical lady, please don't talk nonsense! Start working."

"Really, it's not okay to make a joke or two." After the laughter, the first medical lady also recovered her serious expression. "So, what is this medicine?"

"This is Pueraria Mirifica. Its main function is to relieve muscle fever and produce body fluid. It is used for fever, headache, thirst, and thirst..." Changjin paused while talking, and a layer of mist appeared in his eye sockets.

"My mind is wandering again."

Jang Geum didn't hear the ridicule of the first doctor's daughter at all.
