Chapter 4

　　Overnight, Sophia Shen, who was once in power, became a servant in the palace. 　　Seeing Sophia's downfall made everyone in the palace take the opportunity to humiliate her. They didn't sympathize with her for being seriously injured and made her do all the dirty work. 　　In the cold winter, Sophia squatted by the river with a bucket full of clothes. It was so cold that she felt her fingers go numb when her fingers touched the water. 　　"Look at how pathetic you are! A chicken will never really be as good as a phoenix!" 　　Veronica, dressed in a colorful phoenix robe, stepped forward with a small smile on her face. 　　Sophia raised her head with coldness in her eyes, "You were a princess of the former dynasty who usurped your father's throne, and you think you're better than me?" 　　With a pale face, Veronica bent down slightly and smiled as she stroked her lower abdomen and said, "Anything is better than being a servant girl!" 　　When the words fell, she slammed her foot on Sophia's finger. 　　Sophia turned pale in pain, cold sweat broke out and her eyes were red. She glared at Veronica fiercely. 　　"I sent a letter to Timothy to help me, but not only did you intercept the letter, you also sent someone to kill my father, the former emperor of the palace! I will never forget the humiliation I went through that day when your army came to harass me. Sophia, did you really think I would just quietly become the empress and give birth to a bad seed?" 　　Veronica roared frantically, with a gleaming and coquettish expression on her beautiful face, she couldn't wait to slash Sophia a thousand times. 　　"So you killed your own child to frame me?" Sophia's whole body began to ache, unable to exert any strength, "You don't love him at all. You're just using him because he can make you an empress who basks in glory and wealth!" 　　Veronica curled her lips and laughed mockingly, "Sophia, you love him, but what do you get in return? I just pulled a little trick and you and your master almost died!" 　　Sophia only felt that her whole body was starting to get cold, "It's you! You framed me and master! I will tell His Majesty!" 　　Veronica sneered and pressed her foot harder on the back of Sophia's hand again, with such force that she could almost hear the sound of her bones cracking. 　　"Veronica, I'm going to expose your true colors!" 　　"Don't be stupid and reckless!" Frowning, Veronica kicked Sophia hard. 　　Sophia spat out a mouthful of blood from the corner of her mouth, splashing it on her plain white clothes. 　　It smelted into the cloth like a beautiful red lotus. 　　"I will let you see heaven and hell, but before that, I will reward you with something good!" 　　Veronica curled her lips and smiled, but her face was indescribably terrifying. 　　Sophia was about to speak, but Veronica raised her hand and squeezed a pill into Sophia's mouth in an instant. 　　Sophia coughed, "What was that?" 　　Sophia wanted to dig out the medicine she had swallowed, but countless court ladies suddenly appeared around her to hold her hands and feet. 　　"What you have done to me, I will repay you one by one! How can I let you go after being humiliated? Go, throw her into the house for me, and don't let her out!"
