Chapter 406 Have you ever ridden in a car?
After Wang Ai left, the rescued little palace maid kept kowtowed to them.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for saving my life. Thank you, Miss, for saving my life!"
The blood once again dyed the clean bluestone red. The force with which she kowtowed showed how sincere her heart was.
Shu He quickly stepped forward to stop her, "Stop kowtowing!"
If you keep hitting it like this, you’ll probably get a concussion!
"Thank you so much, girl!"
The little palace maid looked up at her, her eyes full of tears.
It was a pretty face, with the unique youthfulness and tenderness of a girl.
But in those bright eyes, besides gratitude, there was always a hint of despair.
Shu He's heart trembled, and he suddenly realized something.
Wang Ai was teased and punished by Baili Moqing this time because of this little palace maid. Will he seek revenge on that little palace maid?
Did she really save the life of this little palace maid?
She was a little unsure.
Helping her up, Shu He took out a bottle of wound medicine from the medicine box and gave it to her. "Apply it once in the morning and evening. Be careful not to let the wound come into contact with water."
The young maid took the medicine with trembling hands and thanked Shu He. Then she quietly stepped aside and respectfully watched her and Baili Moqing leave.
She must know that she might still not be able to save her life, right?
That's why there is no hope in his eyes.
However, even so, she did not ask Baili Moqing or her for help...
Is she ready to accept her fate?
Shu He couldn't help but ask Baili Moqing beside him, "Is the power behind Wang Ai very powerful?"
If it weren't powerful, it wouldn't be so arrogant.
"She doesn't have much power. She's just Consort Ming, the Ninth Prince's biological mother."
When Shu He heard this, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Even after Baili Moyan's incident, his mother was promoted to a noble concubine...
It seems that her resurrection pill has taken effect.
Baili Moqing continued, "The harem is different from the outside world. Those who are favored will be given way by ghosts and gods, even if they are just a small eunuch below the sixth rank." Just like Wang Ai.
"Here, we don't look at rank or power, we only look at favor."
If Ming Fei is in favor today, everyone will give in to Wang Ai; if Ming Fei falls out of favor tomorrow, Wang Ai will be the little eunuch who is stepped on by others.
Just like the little palace maid he punished today.
Shu He's mouth curled up in a sarcastic arc, his eyes full of contempt.
"Why this expression?"
For some reason, Baili Moqing always felt that the smile on her face was a bit piercing.
Shu He turned his head to look at him, "Don't you think it's ironic?"
Seeing that he remained silent, she sneered, "Of course you don't find it ironic, because you are also a beneficiary of this system!"
“How can a beneficiary see the flaws and injustices of this system?”
But having seen another world, she could no longer accept such a system.
There are three thousand beauties in the harem and tens of thousands of palace maids and eunuchs, but they only have to live by looking at the face of one person!
When the emperor is happy, they have hope of survival. When the emperor is unhappy, they all live in the haze, fearing that they will lose their lives for offending someone!
In a state of constant anxiety!
We are all human beings, but just because we are reincarnated in different ways, our lives are destined to be different!
In another world, there is at least a chance to change one's destiny, but in this world, people are imprisoned by the rules set by those at the top.
It not only imprisons the body, but also the mind.
The lower class will always be the lower class, and the noble class will always be the noble class.
Class, like an insurmountable mountain, separates people in this world into different levels.
Some people are human beings, and some people are just a group of animals...
Isn't this ironic enough?
"You think the rules of survival in this harem are cruel, don't you?"
Baili Moqing suddenly spoke, his face looked very solemn, and there was a hint of helplessness in his deep eyes.
"But you have to know that it's not just the harem that's cruel. The world outside is just as cruel!"
"We are born in such a world. It is impossible to change this world by our own strength. Therefore, all we can do is to adapt to this world!"
Shu He looked at him and couldn't deny that what he said was very realistic.
If she had not received education from another world, how could she have doubts about such a system?
Because this is natural, as if this is the law of heaven and earth.
He looked at her, his eyes flickering, as if he was relieved, as if he was grateful. "You are the first person I have ever met who has doubts about the monarchy and slavery system..."
It is difficult to find such a confidant in this world!
Even my second brother did not agree with his opinion at that time. He felt that it had been like this since ancient times, so why should it change?
Shu He looked at him, somewhat incredulous.
He actually knew about "monarchy and slavery"! He actually doubted this system!
But why would he, a person who enjoys the system, have such thoughts?
Could it be that he also came from another world?
Shu He stopped, a hint of hope in his eyes, and asked carefully, "Have you ever ridden in a car?"
Puzzlement flashed in his eyes, "What car?"
Seeing his reaction like this, Shu He felt disappointed.
Yes, how could there be so many magical and strange things in this world?
After all, she was overthinking.
"Nothing, I said the wrong thing."
She continued walking forward, but he was full of doubts.
After walking for a while, she asked again, "Will that little palace maid be punished later? Can her life be saved?"
