We have all the space treasury in hand, so mere exile is nothing.

Seeing what Concubine Xian said, Ye Yunlian thought that she agreed with him, and she wanted to express the depression and grievances she had been feeling in her heart.

Concubine Xian also listened patiently and wiped her tears with her own handkerchief.

"Okay, don't cry. Let's eat something first. Only when you are full will you have the strength to think about other things."

She personally brought the food to Ye Yunlian, which moved Ye Yunlian very much.

After Ye Yunlian had eaten and drank enough, Concubine Xian said seriously: "Do you want to stay here?"

Ye Yunlian looked at the warm and gorgeous room, the exquisite and delicious food, and the servants on call. It was even better than she had been in the General's Mansion before. This was exactly the life she had always wanted. At this time, Concubine Xian's problem, she He immediately replied: "I think so."

"Okay, but this is the palace. Not everyone can come and go at will. If you want to stay here, you must listen to me. Do you understand?"

Ye Yunlian was stunned.

Although what Concubine Xian said made sense, she still thought she could do something by staying here. But it seemed that Concubine Xian wanted her to stay with her as a maid?

If she were just a maid, then she would definitely not be able to live in such a nice room, let alone eat the food that only a queen of her rank could have.

She was a little reluctant in her heart, but in order to survive, she nodded and agreed.

After all, it is better to be here, where you can at least be fed and clothed, than starving and freezing outside and being ignored and ostracized.

Besides, looking at Concubine Xian's attitude towards him, I think it wouldn't be too bad to live as a maid here. After all, she is different from other servants.

Seeing that she agreed, Concubine Xian returned to her smile and said, "Okay, you are really my good sister. Don't worry, no one here can bully you. As long as you are obedient, I will help you take revenge on those who bully you." .”

Ye Yunlian nodded obediently: "I understand."

Seeing that she agreed, Concubine Xian stood up and left the room with satisfaction.

After walking out of the room, she put away her smile and returned to her usual cold demeanor.

She said to the nanny on the side: "Watch her carefully and teach her more about the rules of the palace. Don't make any mistakes, otherwise I will put all the responsibilities on you."

"Yes, I will definitely take care of it."

In the following days, Ye Yunlian still lived in this room, with food and servants arranged, and she felt more at ease. However, before a few good days, she was dragged to study by her stern grandma. Palace etiquette.

There are many rules in the palace. Ye Yunlian has always known about them, but she never thought there would be so many. From speech and behavior to clothing and accessories, there are different rules and regulations, which makes her head spin.

Unfortunately, she had to learn. If she answered the question wrongly, she would be scolded or beaten with a wicker.

The willow stick was thin and long, and Mammy would always beat her on the skin exposed outside her clothes, which would often leave red marks, burning and painful.

But every time she wanted to complain to Concubine Xian, Concubine Xian said it was not a big deal, gave her a good ointment, and left.

She could bear it at first, but later on she had to remember more and more things, and she really couldn't remember them. The days of being beaten all day reminded her of the time when she was still in the Zhao family, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of resistance.

But the more she resisted, the more severe the beatings became.

Under such circumstances, she had been having nightmares for several days, always dreaming of returning to Zhao's house, and then she couldn't sleep well all night long, which resulted in worse memory and more beatings.

She finally couldn't stand such a vicious cycle anymore.

This kind of life is too different from the prosperity and wealth she imagined, and she must escape from this place.

Ye Yunlian tried several times, but all failed, and her failure resulted in more serious beatings and scoldings.

"How has Ye Yunlian been studying these days?"

Concubine Xian picked up the scented tea, smelled it, and took a sip.

The grandmother in charge of teaching Ye Yunlian was a little embarrassed: "This..."

"To be honest, although she is my sister on the surface, she is still the daughter of a criminal. I only keep her here because she is of some use to me. There is no need to respect her more."

After hearing this, Mammy felt relieved and said bluntly: "Returning to your Majesty, Ye Yunlian's qualifications are really not good. She and your Majesty come from the same family. Logically speaking, she needs to know some basic etiquette. Although she has some relationship with the palace. It’s different, but it’s not that big of a difference, but she can’t learn it.”

She frowned slightly, "I'm sorry to say this bluntly, but at the current speed, I'm afraid it will still be like this after another ten days and a half of teaching."

"Hitting and scolding doesn't work?"

"If it doesn't work, she will even resist, resist, or even run away."

"Humph, it's really useless."

Concubine Xian put down her tea cup and bumped the table with a sound, "I just want her to learn some rules so as not to cause trouble for me in the palace. How can she not learn such a thing and still want to run away? You are useless too, You can’t manage a sinful woman, so I’m wasting my time entrusting you with the task.”

Mammy immediately knelt down and said: "I forgive you, I have tried my best. This... is really too rotten wood to be carved!"

"That's all, just teach her this way. Don't let this idiot leave the palace for the time being, otherwise you'll be ready to come and see her."

"Yes."

Because Ye Yunlian escaped and she was almost punished, Mammy also felt resentful towards her, so she attacked her even more harshly.

Ye Yunlian couldn't escape, so she could only endure it, hiding in her room and crying silently every day, but she was unable to change the situation in front of her.

That night, Concubine Xian came to her with new ointment and applied it to her personally.

"Sister Lian'er, please don't cry. It's for your own good that I asked you to teach me. If you make a mistake in this palace, you will be beheaded. How can I bear to see you beheaded?"

She moved gently, "Sister, I want you to have a good life in the palace and have me by your side, don't you think so?"

Ye Yunlian didn't say anything. No matter how well Concubine Xian said this, she didn't want to live like this anymore.

Concubine Xian also noticed her displeasure, and her tone became harsh: "Think about it carefully, if you can stand firm in the palace, what can Ye Qingran do to you? With my help, there will be many opportunities in the future. Torture her, but only if you can survive in this palace."

After hearing these words, Ye Yunlian was slightly touched: "But I really can't remember so many things... Grandma is too harsh..."

"Take your time, you can always learn. Mommy beats you to make you remember, and you must know that hard work is the key."

Concubine Xian lowered her eyes, "If Ye Qingran hadn't forced you, how could you have reached this point? If you were the queen back then... why would you worry about not being able to learn these things? You can even make your own rules."
