When the door opened and closed, Yelv deguang walked out without hesitation. Chuyi struggled to sit up as she was in excruciating pain from the fall. She raised her arm and looked at the small wound on her body. There were more than enough wounds on her body. What did such a small wound matter?

A few young women wearing a Chitan outfit walked in. They looked like Palace Maid. They walked in front of her and pulled her up before she could say anything. He picked up a piece of cloth and quickly put it on her. The quality of the clothes was poor, barely enough to cover her body. Chuyi gloomily looked down at her clothes, which were different from the clothes she had worn for seventeen years. She couldn't help but feel uncomfortable in her heart. She was Midland local. Not only had she been captured by Liu Tie in Shang Jing, she had also changed into the clothes of their Servant Qi Dan. She looked at the Palace Maid beside her and wondered what kind of place this was. How could there be such a big bath and Palace Maid? Moreover, these people seemed to be very respectful to Yelv deguang who just left. She knew Yelv deguang was not a small character, so many people called him Marshal. However, a marshal's residence should not be so luxurious.

She didn't know Chidan, so she didn't dare to speculate. After those people dressed her up, they turned around and left one by one, no longer looking at her. She hurriedly pulled the last girl, who was slightly smaller, and asked softly, "May I ask where I am going?"

The girl she had grabbed stopped and looked at her with a strange expression. Then, she spoke in her limpid Chinese: "You're a slave. It's almost dawn. You have to go to work!"

"Where to?" Seeing that she seemed to find the words of the Central Plains somewhat awkward, Chuyi slowly asked. She was worried that if she spoke too fast, the girl in front of her wouldn't understand.

The girl blinked, still looking at her strangely. "You're a slave!" Then she looked down at Chuyi's hand on her arm.

Chuyi followed her gaze and looked at her hand. After a long time, she finally understood the meaning of her words and hurriedly moved away from Chuyi. So it turned out that in a country like Chidan's, slaves were lower than Palace Maid. However, she still did not give up and asked, "I'm sorry, I don't really understand what you guys are doing with Chidan. Could you please take me somewhere I should go? "

The girl blinked her large eyes and looked at Chuyi for a long time before shaking her head, "What a strange Central Plains slave! "Come with me!"

Seeing that she was willing to take her with her, Chuyi was overjoyed. She quickly ran after her. He almost jumped up when he walked out of the door and stepped on the ground outside. She didn't wear shoes. Although the floor was paved with flat stone bricks, there was inevitably sand and rocks on it. It was so hard that her feet hurt. Little Palace Maid didn't notice her abnormality and continued to walk forward. She gritted her teeth, ignored the pain in her feet and quickly followed.

"Mei Luo, who is she?" Palace Maid, who was dressed just like her, walked over to her side and asked in a low voice.

Although Chuyi did not understand what she was saying, she heard Palace Maid's name. After they were done talking, Chuyi walked over to Little Palace Maid and asked her with a smile, "Are you called Mei Luo?"

Mei Luo turned her head to look at Chuyi with an expressionless face. She didn't understand how this woman could still smile even after becoming the lowest level slave.

"Mei Luo, isn't it?" Seeing that she didn't answer, Chuyi asked again. She somewhat liked this little girl. Although she didn't have much expression on her face, she didn't see any contempt or disdain in her eyes.

"Yes." Mei Luo was moved by her sweet voice. Since she was young, she had never heard someone call her name so intimately. She stopped and looked at Chuyi. "Why do you know how to be a slave?"

Chuyi's originally smiling face suddenly collapsed a little. She put away her smile, looked at Mei Luo's inquisitive and curious eyes, and shook her head helplessly. "I don't know what a slave is, I'm just that Yelv deguang's man said that I'll be his slave from now on …"

Mei Luo suddenly raised her hand to cover her mouth and whispered, "How can you call him Wang's name?"

"King? What king? " Seeing that Mei Luo had lowered her voice, Chuyi couldn't help but ask her in a low voice.

"A king is a king!" Mei Luo helplessly rolled her eyes. She didn't expect that she would know such an idiot after receiving the king's order to change the clothes of this woman.

Chuyi scratched her head and said with a bright smile on her face, "I'm sorry, but I don't really understand."

Just as they were feeling awkward, an even more awkward voice came out. Chuyi and Mei Luo looked at Chuyi's stomach at the same time. One of them had embarrassment on his face, while the other had surprise on his face.

"Didn't you eat?" Mei Luo looked at Chu Yi in astonishment, "You're already this hungry and you still know how to laugh?"

Chuyi rubbed her painful and hungry stomach and smiled awkwardly. However, her heart was very bitter. Just now, Yelv deguang asked her if she was hungry in the woodshed. She thought he was bringing her out to eat, but she didn't expect him to throw her into the water. When she was finished, he left her alone.

Mei Luo saw that although she was smiling, the bitterness in her eyes did not escape. "Do you want to eat something before you go to work?"

"Can I?" Chuyi looked gratefully at Mei Luo. Although she was happy, she didn't dare to show too much excitement. After all, Mei Luo was just Palace Maid. If she couldn't do it, then she would be happy for nothing!

Mei Luo nodded and no longer cared about Chuyi's status as a slave. She held her hand and quietly walked towards the kitchen. Although the two girls were extremely careful as they walked, they were still unable to escape from the pair of cold eyes standing behind the fake mountain.

Want to eat? Humph! Yelv deguang sneered as he looked at the two petite figures of Mei Luo. It seems that you will have to pay a price for your kindness...

"Hurry up!" Mei Luo turned around and looked at Chuyi. She frowned and urged her on. She was clearly worried that this little slave would be starving, so why was she so nervous instead? Who did she owe it to?

"Oh!" Chuyi bent down with her.

The sky started to turn white. Mei Luo pulled Chuyi into the kitchen anxiously. At this moment, the servants in the kitchen had yet to arrive. It just so happened that Chuyi could find something to fill her stomach with first.

"Mei Luo, you're too good!" Chuyi called out excitedly as she saw a few pieces of meat in an unsealed pot on the stove. Under Mei Luo's urging, she quickly ran to the side of the wok and picked up the meat to start eating. It had been too long since she last ate, so she didn't care about her image anymore. She just stuffed everything into her mouth before taking big bites of the tough meat. When she finally managed to swallow one piece, Chuyi sighed in satisfaction.

"You eat first, I'll stand guard at the door!" Seeing that she was full of energy, Mei Luo smiled and shook her head. She ran to the door, saying, "Eat quickly, it's almost daybreak. The people from the kitchen are coming to work soon. If they catch us, we'll both …" Mei Luo's words stopped at the tip of her tongue and she was no longer able to speak. She looked at the man with the murderous look on his face kneeling down in fear at the entrance of the kitchen.
