Qiao Yiqing saw that Xuan Mingche was silent, and her cold outline made her feel cold.

Who doesn't like a gentle and virtuous woman? It's a miracle that Xuan Mingche can fall in love with her. It is estimated that once the novelty wears off, he will feel disgusted once the flaws in her character are exposed.

Qiao Yiqing sneered at the corners of her mouth, and the pain in her heart hit her heart uncontrollably.

She obviously believed in him, but when faced with Xuan Mingche's cold expression, Qiao Yiqing still felt uneasy.

She was originally an insecure person, had a grudge against others, was sensitive, and always kept others away.

Nowadays, every look or word from the man she loves deeply can make her feel uncomfortable for a long time.

She was angry with him and even more angry with herself.

She cannot fulfill her responsibilities as a wife, but is like a hedgehog, always stinging people.

Even she herself hates herself like this, let alone Xuan Mingche.

At this time, Xuan Mingche looked at the sad smile on Qiao Yiqing's lips and clenched his hands distressedly.

But her face remained calm, and she said seriously: "Qiao Yiqing has indeed done a lot of wrong things. I have disqualified her from being selected as a concubine, demoted her to a palace maid, and punished her to do hard labor in the Xuan Palace. What do the clan leaders think?"

"No, she committed a serious crime and must be punished in the cold palace." Several deputy chiefs did not agree at all and refused.

Xuan Mingche frowned, and his voice was a bit colder: "No matter what wrong things she did, she once saved the Xuanming clan from annihilation, and she was considered a great benefactor to the Xuanming clan. Although she lost several daughters,

hair, but it did not harm their lives. What's more, these women started all this, and Qiao Yiqing was just taking revenge. Therefore, the crime will not lead to death."

After hearing this, several clan leaders weighed in their minds. Xuan Mingche was right. Although Qiao Yiqing cut the hair of several women, it did not harm their lives. She also expelled the Canghan clan for the Xuanming clan and was considered a benefactor.

If I try to do something too extreme now, I'm really afraid that I'll get a reputation of repaying kindness with hatred.

After careful consideration, several clan leaders and elders reached a unified opinion.

Since you can't do too much, let her go as much as possible.

Disqualifying her from being selected as a concubine and demoting her to a palace maid not only achieved their ultimate goal, but also punished Qiao Yiqing for her arrogant behavior.

Killing two birds with one stone, why not?

After thinking about it, everyone nodded and agreed: "Okay, let's do it like this."

Seeing that several deputy chiefs and elders agreed, Xuan Mingche also breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked at Qiao Yiqing coldly and shouted angrily: "I demoted you to a palace maid, and you will do hard work in the Xuan Palace from now on. If you make another mistake, I will punish you severely. Do you have any objections?"

Qiao Yiqing's pale face showed a bit of chill, and she curled her lips and sneered: "Xuan Shi wants me to die, and I have to die, right?"

Hearing this, Xuan Mingche's heart twitched, as if a hand was tearing his heart apart——

Qiao Yiqing's mist-filled eyes stared intently at Xuan Mingche's cold face, and the sadness in her heart was like a wave of waves, drowning her.

This man made her feel extremely strange.

Maybe, today is just a dream, and when you wake up, you will be back to where you started——

Qiao Yiqing thought a little bit to herself, raising her head and holding back all the tears.

She is so strong, how can she shed tears!

Thinking about it, Qiao Yiqing stubbornly drove away all the fragility, and her face turned cold again.

"My slave, please leave -" Qiao Yiqing replied coldly, turned around and walked out of the room indifferently.

★★★

"This is your room." A servant pointed to the woodshed in front of him and said in a bad tone.

Qiao Yiqing looked at the woodshed and complained in her heart that this was not a place for people to live, and probably not even animals could live there.

It seems that the maids and slaves who work hard in the Xuan Palace are the lowest class of people.

"Come with me and see what kind of work you have to do every day." The slave glanced at her and waved to her.

Qiao Yiqing followed him and walked over.

"These firewood must be chopped before mid-morning (morning to mid-morning), and this basin of clothes must be washed before noon every day. In the afternoon, I will clean the courtyard and various palaces. Got it?

?”

Qiao Yiqing nodded indifferently, Xuan Mingche arranged it herself, she would definitely do it.

Soon, it got dark and Qiao Yiqing finished her hard work for the day.

She sat at the door of the woodshed, looking at the moon hanging in the sky, feeling a little emotional in her heart.

Today was supposed to be Xuan Mingche's celebration banquet. He had suffered so much and was finally promoted to Spirit Saint. She should congratulate him, but——

I didn't expect that everything would turn out like this.

Her viciousness finally made things difficult for him.

Listening to the laughter and laughter coming from the Xuandian, Qiao Yiqing's mood dropped to the bottom.

She never expected that Xuan Mingche's celebration banquet would not include her participation. She had already prepared gifts——

Gift! Qiao Yiqing almost forgot, she also prepared a gift!

Thinking about it, she dusted herself off and walked towards the garden.

The clean garden has no popularity at all. Not even a butterfly or bee has ever visited it.

Qiao Yiqing stood alone in the garden, looking a little forlorn.

She took out the brown jar hidden among the flowers, poured the liquid in the jar onto the stone path in the center of the garden, made several movements, came and went, and wrote a few big words.

Looking at the large characters written in liquid on the ground, Qiao Yiqing smiled with satisfaction.

Then she stood far away, as if waiting for something.

Seeing this, Xuan Bing, who was perched on the tree, felt a little curious and looked at her with furrowed eyebrows.

There was a hint of warmth in Qiao Yiqing's peaceful face, which made Xuan Bing even more confused.

She was demoted to palace maid by Xuan Mingche just this morning, and now she can laugh. Is she not stupid?

Originally, Xuan Bing felt happy when he heard the news that she was demoted to a palace maid. He didn't like Qiao Yiqing at all and wished she would stay away from Xuan Mingche.

But now, seeing Qiao Yiqing like this, he was confused.

This was the first time he met such a weird and mysterious woman.

Just as he was snoring in his heart, a group of fluorescent butterflies suddenly flew from the distance.

He stared at the group of butterflies in amazement, his surprise beyond words.

Why are there so many butterflies?

Qiao Yiqing watched the butterfly finally arrive, and the smile on her lips deepened.

After a while, colorful butterflies flew to the ground and gathered in a pile according to the large characters on the ground, suddenly forming several beautiful large fluorescent characters.

Xuan Bing opened his mouth in shock and whispered softly: "Xuan Mingche - I love you -"

She actually wrote these words!!!

Qiao Yiqing heard the voice and said indifferently: "How long can I keep peeking?"

When Xuan Bing heard this, a layer of embarrassment appeared on his face, and he retorted awkwardly: "Who peeked at you? I'm resting here, but you disturbed my clear dream."

"Really? That's really my fault."

"What are you talking about?" Xuan Bing ignored her attitude and pointed at the butterfly on the ground.
