On the 12th day of the 15th year of Qianyuan, the daughter of a meritorious official entered the palace.
The four new nobles were given the titles of Fuqi Xiangrui. Lady Li of the Blessed was a lovely woman, Lady Guan of the Qiyi was gorgeous, Lady Ni of the Xiangyi was a woman like a painting in autumn, and Lady Luo of the Ruiyi was a woman with a faint pride like a plum blossom.
The Emperor doted on the daughters of these meritorious officials. The other concubines were not even close to the Emperor. However, their status was not high. It was likely that the Empress had suppressed them and that the Emperor himself had despised these aristocratic families.
After Shilan left, she handed over all her connections to me. I don't have the Sacred Heart now, but these people have done their best for me. Perhaps Shilan wants to repay me in this way. However, I didn't immediately place people in my Misty Pavilion. With these people appearing out of nowhere, I don't have a pet and will only arouse suspicion. Also, I keep feeling that someone is watching me. Perhaps it's the Emperor's people, but so what? I've already given up on him. I haven't forgotten my oath. If I still love Xuan Ling in this life, I'd rather dig out my heart and commit suicide. I don't know who they are. But no matter what, the Empress will never let me go.
But I don't care. The limelight now belongs to these meritorious women. Even if the Emperor has you in his heart, he will still give face to this aristocratic family. Thus, during this period of time, I had always claimed that I was ill and couldn't leave my bed. Jian Qiu had also come twice to express the Empress 'expectations and concern for me before leaving.
The heavy snow outside the window reminded me that it was another winter. It has been almost three years. I have been in this world for almost three years. How long has it been since I thought of my mother? It was already winter and the new year was coming. How was Concubine Xiao? Brother Yun Zhan is eleven years old, right? Was he a little adult?
Although I am not favored, my days are still okay. It's just that the Empress has been nagging me. If I continue to be so disappointing, I can only bear the consequences. Isn't she threatening me like this because Zhen Huan is now favored and the four nobles are also favored by the Emperor! Moreover, Mei Zhuang was also very favored by the emperor, but these people were not her people, so she was anxious to promote them.
Bao Juan stepped forward and bowed with a smile." Little Lord, Consort Jing Niangniang has come to visit you with Empress Wen Yi!”
I did needlework one needle at a time, and without looking up, I said,"Please!"”
Consort Jing was wearing a black fox fur cloak and holding a delicate three-year-old girl in a red embroidered golden silk coat. She was holding an oil-paper umbrella behind her.
In the inner room, the burning silver charcoal was emitting steam. Consort Jing smiled as she carried Wen Yi to Bao Juan and placed her on the soft couch. She sat beside me and smiled lightly." You can always calm down. I really admire you for this!"”
I seriously embroidered an orchid and said indifferently,"Otherwise, what should I do?"”After saying that, she looked up at Wen Yi, who was covered tightly on the soft couch, and said indifferently,"What a beautiful little girl."”Wen Yi was a very beautiful little girl with big eyes, a sharp nose, and red lips. She was very cute.
Consort Jing's gentle smile was filled with the brilliance of motherly love, her face full of happiness as she said," I have Wen Yi, so I have a place to settle down in this life. Otherwise, this long night would be so long, I really don't know how to pass it!”
I remained silent and continued to embroider the black orchids with a focused expression.
Consort Jing didn't mind and smiled faintly,"I haven't seen you for a long time, you still haven't changed!" All the concubines in the harem are crazy busy fighting for favor, and only you can endure it! When you get pregnant with a baby, your life will be better!”
I said indifferently,"There are many concubines in the harem who have no children, but they are still not living well!"”
Consort Jing said with concern,"You're getting close to the Empress. This isn't a good thing!" I think you should understand that the Empress is not an easy person to get along with!”
I said lightly,"Who in this harem is a simple person?" I haven't seen you for a long time, but you're still the same.。”
Consort Jing spat at me and said resentfully,"Aren't I worried about you?" I already have a son, what about you? You have to think for yourself, right?”
I picked up the teacup and took a sip. I didn't care." I can't flatter someone who doesn't love you at all!”
Consort Jing stared blankly and sighed,"How do you know the emperor has no feelings for you?" When the emperor is with you, he is very gentle. Even an outsider like me can see it!”
I put down my teacup and looked out the window. It was snowing heavily. I said indifferently," Emperors are the most heartless." How could he not be gentle to the other concubines? Although you already have Wen Yi, Wen Yi's future is still in the hands of the Empress and the Emperor!”
Consort Jing was stunned, but the worry in her heart did not dissipate. I hope Sister can lend me a hand!" He looked at me with pleading eyes.
This was a mother. She would do anything for her child.
I indifferently said,"I have no favor, no power, no power, how can I help you?"”
Consort Jing smiled elegantly." I don't know why, but I think you can! As long as you're willing!" Because the emperor will only protect you.
I raised my eyebrows and said coldly,"Oh?" Jingfei niangniang has such big words, can I not even know myself!”
Consort Jing didn't mind,"I know you can. As long as you're willing to fight for favor, no one can compare!"”She saw that I was only doing embroidery by myself and couldn't help but make up her mind." Sister, do you still remember the oath of the past? Today, I brought Wen Yi here because I hope that you can be her godmother!”As she spoke, she personally carried Wen Yi in front of her and coaxed,"Wen Yi, quickly call me Godmother!" Call me Godmother!"
Wen Yi blinked her innocent eyes and giggled.”
I didn't even raise my head and coldly said," If I can help you, I will naturally help you. I don't need this godmother!"”
Consort Jing was stunned, unsure if I was sincere or not, and said urgently,"Little sister, I sincerely hope that you will be Wen Yi's godmother!"”
I lightly said,"I said that I would help if I could. What identity do I have? What identity does Sister Jing Fei have? How can I be Wen Yi's godmother?" Don't mention it again!"
Consort Jing smiled reassuringly." I feel much more at ease hearing you call me elder sister. Wen Yi is still your goddaughter!”
I didn't care and said," No need. Where do you think the jade pendant in your hand came from when you died?”She paused for a moment and looked at the mother and daughter, then raised her eyebrows and said coldly," Sister Jing Fei is willing to do anything for Wen Yi! Hmm?"
Consort Jing was shocked and tightened her grip on Wen Yi." Sister An, what are you talking about?"”
I said indifferently," You don't have to be so polite. I never want any warmth. You don't have to be so nervous!"”
Consort Jing breathed a sigh of relief and said in surprise,"Then why did she enter the Cold Palace in the past?"”
I looked at the cute little Wen Yi and said indifferently," Children sometimes have very good memories. Don't say what you shouldn't say!”
Consort Jing was shocked and looked down at Wen Yi. Seeing Wen Yi blinking her innocent eyes and smiling sweetly, her heart softened and she said firmly," Wen Yi is my daughter. For her, I can do anything!”
I raised my eyebrows and said coldly,"As long as you are my Jingfei jiejie, don't talk about Wenyi, I will do everything I can to protect you!"”
Consort Jing's eyes were filled with tears as she smiled,"Of course I'm your sister, this will never change!"”
Yiyuan Hall.
The Empress looked at Xuan Ling and smiled." Your Majesty is busy every day. It's been hard on you!" Are these four noble people still in line with the emperor's wishes?”
When others asked this, it was to guess the emperor's heart. As for the empress, it was to care about her husband.
Xuan Ling took a sip of hot tea and said lightly," They're all not bad, right? As expected of the daughter of a noble family!"”
The Empress smiled gently." Your Majesty, don't forget those old people when you have a new one! The concubines in the harem still hope that the emperor will share the rain and dew equally!”
Xuan Ling's heart moved, and she pretended to be indifferent. It's not like I don't know these concubines. I'll go and take a look another day!”
The Empress smiled faintly,"If the Emperor is willing to go and see the concubines in the harem, I believe they will also be very happy!"”
Xuan Ling's eyes flashed as she pretended to be satisfied."En, zhen will go and see Wan Guipin later. Zhen hasn't seen her for a while!"”
The Empress almost broke her teeth. She smiled amiably and said," Your Majesty, Wan Guipin has been with you for a long time. It will be hard on her. She is weak because of Xiao Yue!"”
"Guan Guan has been with me for a long time. It's time for her to be promoted. How about Wan Fei?"”After saying that, his handsome face asked the Empress with a faint smile.
The Empress was furious. Wan Fei, hmph, how can bengong let you have your way? The Empress praised with a smile." The Emperor really loves Wan Guipin. However, there are many things in the harem now. There are also the four noble people who have just entered the palace. The hearts of this aristocratic family still need to be stable. Why don't we wait until Wan Guipin gives birth to a dragon son before giving her a big title?"”
Xuan Ling pretended not to care and smiled." If Guan Guan gets a daughter in one fell swoop, Zhen will make her the head of the four concubines. If she gets a man in one fell swoop, Zhen will make her an imperial concubine." Now, it was just a small consort position, so what was wrong with it?”
The Empress only felt fear and hatred in her heart. She said in surprise," The Emperor's intentions are always good, but the hearts of aristocratic families and the hearts of the sisters in the harem have to be taken into account. Why don't we confer her the title of Zhaoyi first?" Moreover, people like An Pin have not seen the emperor for a long time. This…"
Xuan Ling's heart was happy that she had finally waited for you to say these words, but on the surface, she said impatiently,"Zhaoyi's status is too low, my Guan Guan deserves the best of everything in the world!" As for this An Pin, zhen doesn't remember who she is, why should zhen care?”
The smile on the Empress 'face froze. Did she deserve the best of everything, including me, the empress? The Empress 'smile faded as she gently said,"Does the Emperor not remember An Pin? Her poetry, books, songs, and dances are excellent!" Her appearance was also very beautiful!”
Xuan Ling pretended to respect the Empress and said,"Alright, since the Empress said so, I'll go take a look tonight. It's still early, so I'll go take a look at Guan Guan first."”
The Empress 'heart was filled with hatred, but on the surface, she said considerately,"The Emperor should also go and see Consort Jing and Consort Duan more often. They are all old people in the harem!"”
Xuan Ling pretended to be enlightened and said,"Zhen should also go and see Mei 'er. Since Guan Guan wants to be a concubine, Mei' er should also be a concubine!"”
The Empress was stunned and forced a smile." This, the Emperor's intention, ChenQie will naturally abide by it. It's just that this Hui Jieyu has no son!”
Xuan Ling didn't care and said," It's settled then. Mei-er has suffered a lot for Zhen! As for that An Pin, zhen will make a trip tonight!”
The Empress smiled magnanimously, but in her heart, she was even more afraid of Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang. The Emperor had always respected her as the Empress, but now, for Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang, he had repeatedly disregarded her face as the Empress. This-- Xuan Ling saw this but remained silent.
Not yet. Zhao Ming Hall.
The Empress rubbed her temples as she sat on the Phoenix Throne. She closed her eyes and said coldly," You've been sick for so long. It's time for you to recover! Tonight, the emperor will go to your Misty Will Pavilion.”
I turned pale and coldly said,"Your Majesty, why do you choose concubines?" If the Empress didn't mention it, the Emperor might never come, and then the concubine could get what she wanted!”
The Empress opened her eyes and stared at me sharply, coldly saying,"BenGong saved you, shouldn't you do your best for BenGong?" Moreover, your sister is still with bengong!”
My face grew paler and paler, but I was laughing coldly in my heart. I closed my eyes and sighed deeply. I pretended to accept my fate and said," I will do my best, but I have no intention of fighting for favor. If the emperor doesn't remember me in the future, then I can't either!”
The Empress smiled with satisfaction,"Bengong is very confident in you. Your poetry, books, songs, and dances are excellent. If you are serious, how can you not keep the Emperor's heart?"”After saying that, she carefully sized me up and smiled faintly." Although An Pin is a cold beauty, her appearance is extremely rare.”
I said indifferently,"It's just a face."”
The Empress saw that I was so indifferent to the favor and smiled with satisfaction." Forget it, go back and prepare quickly. How can you see your holy face with a pale face?"”
I respectfully bowed and indifferently said,"The Empress has protected me, I dare not forget." Farewell."
The Empress smiled modestly and nodded without saying a word.
Upper Forest Park.
Ju Qing stood behind me with a red umbrella. He raised his head and looked at the gray sky. Snow was falling, falling gently from the sky, onto the roof, and onto the ground. It was very light and soft. Upper Forest Park was no longer as beautiful as it used to be. It was bone-piercing cold under his feet, and there was a merciless cold wind. It was winter.
Separated by an umbrella curtain, the snow seemed to have no end, splashing and splashing. I actually hate winter because it's too cold. I'm not a person who knows how to keep myself warm, but in order to survive, I can only choose to be numb.
Ju Qing was dressed in a pink palace dress. She rubbed her hands and smiled." Little Master, it's so cold here. Why don't we go back to Lan Yi Lou? It'll be warm and we can see the snow."”
I asked indifferently,"How is it different in the Forbidden City?"”
I pushed open the umbrella and walked down the steps step by step, looking into the distance. However, the pavilions seemed endless, and the snowflakes were flying everywhere. My line of sight was always blocked.
Ju Qing said helplessly,"Little Lord, the Empress said that the Emperor will go to Lan Yi Lou tonight. Why don't we go back!"”
" Kengchi kengchi " There was a heavy feeling under my feet. I pulled open the black brim of my hat and looked back at the road I came from. I said coldly," Last night, the west wind withered the green trees. I climbed the tall building alone and looked at the end of the world. I want to send a colored paper and a ruler. Where do you know the long mountains and wide rivers?”
Juqing smiled lightly and walked to me with an umbrella. She nagged," Little Master's talent is the best. It's just that the weather is so cold and Little Master's body is weak. It's not good to catch a cold when the time comes!”
I reached out and the snowflakes fell on my palm. It was a peerless flower, pure and beautiful but short-lived. I don't mind saying," If you don't like life, you'll be in a boat tomorrow. I'm looking forward to it. What a pity."
Ju Qing was stunned and quickly said,"Pah! You can't say that. Little Master is still young. How can you think so sorrowfully? Little Master should be like Lady Jingfei, teaching his children!”
I don't know where to go in this vast land. If I keep standing like this, will the snow drown me?
I coldly replied,"My life is either in the boudoir or in this cold palace. However, my greatest wish is not to teach children, nor is it glory and wealth. I just want to live a happy life and do what I want to do! What a pity."
Juqing sighed helplessly." But Little Lord is already the Emperor's concubine. Why don't you think about the future?”
I looked at the pavilion a few steps away and walked away on the snow. I said lightly,"There is nothing in the world." We'll talk about tomorrow's matter later."
Juqing looked at me in shock and said,"Little Master, this is not like you. You have always been very assertive!"”
I didn't mind saying,"Life is like this. What's more, isn't the thing that women like to do the most sad about spring and autumn?"”
Ju Qing laughed and said," Little Master, hearing you say that, it seems like it's true!”
Windy Pavilion was right in front of them, but…
Ju Qing looked unhappily at the luxuriously dressed man in front of her and shouted," Who are you? How rude!"”
He was extremely slender and wore a blue suit with the pattern of a flying cloud rune bat. A rhinoceros horn belt was tied around his waist, and he had a white jade pendant and a flute. He wore a white banner, and the snow-white fox fur on his hat fluttered in the wind. He was handsome. However, he sized me up without any restraint and remained silent.
I expressionlessly stood three steps away from him and calmly turned around to leave. Chrysanthemum Qing followed suit.
"It is fate that we met. Why do you have to leave so quickly?”His smiling voice came from behind me.
Juqing angrily glared at Xuanqing and complained to me,"Little Master, this person is so rude!" How could he stare at Little Master without any scruples?”
Xuan Qing saw me turn around and leave without any reluctance. She couldn't help but say anxiously," The wind and snow are blowing together. Why don't you take shelter in the pavilion?”
Little Mencius looked at Xuan Qing and sighed helplessly." Your Highness, this might be the master of some palace. Your Highness, it's better to ignore him!"”
Xuan Qing looked at her back view as she walked further and further away, feeling lonely and silent.
The voice gradually faded away, and Juqing complained," Little Master, this person is too rude. What is Little Master's identity? What is his identity?!" He even wants Little Master to avoid the snow with him!"
I said indifferently,"He is the King of Qinghe, so he is naturally more honorable than me."”
Ju Qing said in surprise,"Qinghe King, this is bad. This servant didn't salute him just now. This is disrespectful to the royal family!"”
I knocked on her head and said lightly,"Those who don't know are innocent!”
Misty Pavilion. The warm wind was everywhere.
Li Changxiao walked forward with a smile." Young Mistress An Pin, are you back?" The emperor has been waiting for a long time!"
I said lightly,"There's an old eunuch!" Xuan Ling, you and I will finally meet again.
Ju Qing was all smiles as she helped me shake off the wind and snow to tidy up my clothes. Bao Juan and the others were also waiting at the side with radiant faces.
I took off my black fox fur and put on a light blue palace dress with silk and a pair of cloud geese. The dress was embroidered with bright blue daisy. There was a bundle at my waist, which made my figure look as delicate as a willow, and I looked like a swallow in the wind. She had a newly plucked white plum hairpin on her head, and other than that, she only had a jade hairpin with thin silver beads and tassels on it. She did not apply any makeup.
Xuan Ling watched as I slowly walked towards him. His handsome face held a gentle smile, and his eyes were gentle and focused. He said indifferently,"All of you can leave!"”
Li Changxiao obediently bowed and left with his servants.
He was wearing a casual black robe with narrow sleeves. The sleeves were embroidered with golden auspicious clouds. A vermilion white jade belt hung from his waist. A white jade belt hung on his waist. He wore a jade crown on his head and had a handsome face.
He walked up to me in a few steps and happily picked me up. He muttered,"My beautiful face, I'm finally hugging you again!"”
I lightly said,"The people waiting for you to hug are not just concubines."”
Xuan Ling frowned and gently placed me on the soft couch. He looked down at me and said unhappily,"I haven't seen you for a long time. The moment I see you, you stab me!"”
I coldly said,"How dare you? You are the emperor, so whatever you say is what you say!"”
Xuan Ling was furious. I spent so much effort on this woman. It was not easy to meet her, but she was still so lukewarm. Xuan Ling's eyes flashed as she sat calmly beside me and said helplessly," Are you blaming me?”
I tugged at the ribbon around my waist and said lightly,"How dare you!"”
Xuan Ling held my hand, her eyes full of pity and helplessness as she coaxed,"Ling Rong, are you blaming Zhen for protecting Wan Guipin but not you?"”
I was surprised by his honesty, but I still said calmly,"The emperor's decision is always right, and the concubine is fine."”
Xuan Ling cupped my face with his thick hands and looked at me seriously. His ink-like eyes reflected my face. He said firmly," Ling Rong, I spoil you too much and will harm you instead. That's why I've always distanced myself from you. In fact, I'm protecting you!”
His every word was nailed to my heart. It was painful and hateful. I said lightly,"The emperor has gone through a lot of trouble.”
Xuan Ling only felt her breathing stop. She kept feeling that something had changed. It was as if they were just strangers and could never go back. Xuan Ling panicked and said anxiously,"Ling Rong, don't you believe me?" I promised you that I would be with you for the rest of my life!”
You promised me that you would protect me, but you didn't do it. I lightly said,"To be able to spend a lifetime with the Emperor is a concubine's blessing!"”
Xuan Ling looked at me deeply and then lowered her eyes without saying a word.
Very quiet, very quiet. It was so quiet that one could hear the sound of the hourglass, the wind outside the window, and the footsteps of the palace servants.
After a long time, Xuan Ling sighed in a low voice. She hugged my shoulder and said helplessly,"I can't bear to blame you!" Do you know how painful it is for me to suppress my desire to see you every day?”
I silently stared at the smoke from the incense burner.
Xuan Ling didn't mind saying to herself,"The person I love the most is Guan Guan, but you are also in my heart." Guan Guan left me because I didn't protect her well. I don't want to lose you again, so I want to protect you.”
Guan Guan? Guan Guan? Hehe…
Xuan Ling's hand that was hugging me tightened as she excitedly said,"There are many grudges in the harem. You're just a weak woman. I can only protect you silently like this. Ling Rong, do you understand?"”After saying that, he looked at me deeply. For a moment, my heart seemed to waver.
I lightly said,"How can there be a perfect Dharma in this world? I will not disappoint the Tathagata and you."”
Xuan Ling was stunned and repeatedly muttered this sentence, almost bewitched. After a long time, he laughed loudly and said,"Zhen's Ling Rong is indeed a very talented woman. I was too persistent!"
I said coldly,"I didn't do anything."”
Xuan Ling smiled gently and said," I have doted on many women, but I think you are the most different. I will cherish you!”His rough palm rubbed against my delicate skin. I watched as he ignored my inner thoughts and left a mark on my body.
The person you love the most is Guan Guan, I'm just different. You are the king, so this night was indeed extremely touching. However, my heart was like a burning red candle, crying all night.
On February 2, the 16th year of Qianyuan, Xuan Ling granted Zhen Huan the title of Guan Concubine and Mei Zhuang the title of Hui Concubine, both of whom were of the second grade. I was also promoted to a Secondary Fourth Grade Wanyi because of Xuan Ling's frequent recruitment. Fortune and good fortune remained unchanged.
This time, the harem could not help but complain. Zhen Huan was promoted to the imperial concubine because the emperor doted on her and doted on her for a long time. Moreover, her family had contributed to the matter of Runan King. Although Mei Zhuang is favored, she is not as good as Zhen Huan, and I am even less famous. However, this was really too much of a favor. Perhaps, other than Consort Hua back then, it was not as good.
Zhen Huan and Mei Zhuang are already concubines without children. As the Empress, she must feel that her position is in danger. The reason why I can be promoted is that the Empress doesn't want Zhen Huan and Mei Zhuang to be dominant. As for the daughters of the four meritorious officials who had just entered the palace, no one could guarantee that there would not be a second Consort Hua. Moreover, they were all young, and the Empress was already old.
The next day. Zhao Ming Hall.
The Empress sat on the Phoenix Throne with a faint smile and looked at everyone with a satisfied expression. But she probably didn't feel good at all, right?
After bowing to each other.
The Empress smiled amiably at Zhen Huan and Mei Zhuang and said,"Now, Consort Wan and Consort Hui will be able to perform the ceremony at the end of this month. It's really difficult for An Wanyi to do it herself in front of me!"”
As soon as I finished speaking, everyone looked at me with envy and jealousy. They mocked and despised me with different expressions. Consort Jing only looked at me worriedly without saying a word.
Noble Qi laughed sourly. However, An Wanyi was indeed pitiful. Who asked the Emperor to give Wan Guipin and Hui Jieyu the best coronation ceremony? As for An Wanyi, she could just bow in front of the Empress! These are the emperor's original words!" Other than Zhen Huan and Mei Zhuang, she was the most favored in the harem, so she naturally had the confidence to speak.
Zhen Huan raised her eyebrows and smiled." The Emperor loves Guan Guan, so Guan Guan can only refuse!" However, Noble Qi was just a noble. How could he speak to An Wanyi like that? The upbringing of this daughter of a meritorious minister was nothing more than this!”She covered her mouth and laughed.
Noble Qi's face was red and her chest was heaving up and down, but she did not dare to say anything. After all, the Emperor really doted on Zhen Huan. He had lost several times to Zhen Huan.
When the Empress heard this, she smiled and remained silent.
Mei Zhuang stroked her hair that was hanging by her ear and said coquettishly," The grace of the heavens should be shared by the sisters in the harem. It's just that I've wronged Sister An for Wan Guipin's coronation ceremony. ChenQie's heart is very uneasy!" But speaking of which, ChenQie was able to become a consort because of Wan Guipin's glory!”She looked at Zhen Huan provocatively.
Rui Guiren smiled." Before entering the palace, I heard that Wan jiejie was so favored. That day when I went to visit Wan jiejie, Tangli Palace was really rich and glorious! It could be seen how much the emperor loved Wan jiejie!”Her eyes were filled with admiration.
The Empress snorted in her heart. When Zhu Rou was favored, the Emperor gave her the best of everything. Now, Zhu Rou had already enjoyed the things in Tangli Palace. Only Zhen Huan, that idiot, would think that the Emperor really loved her!
Noble Fu smiled elegantly." Whoever the Emperor favors is who. Noble Fu, you must be careful when you speak!”Although he sounded concerned, the mockery on his face was real.
Noble Xiang smiled lightly and said," That's right. Whoever the Emperor dotes on is who he is. However, there is only the Empress in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Others are just fleeting clouds!"”
Zhen Huan was originally confused by the flattery, but this sentence made her very angry. Zhen Huan raised her eyebrows and sarcastically said," As soon as Noble Xiang entered the palace, he eagerly tried to get close to the Empress. He's really annoying!" How could ChenQie and the Emperor have the final say? After the emperor leaves court, ChenQie will discuss it with the emperor!”Zhen Huan smiled proudly.
These words had offended many people. Perhaps the Empress would be happy to hear it, but this person was too stupid.
Noble Xiang's face was pale. No one could compete with Zhen Huan for love in the harem! She felt a wave of regret in her heart. She had said the wrong thing. She could not help but look at Zhen Huan with fear.
The Empress smiled magnanimously." Since we've entered the palace, we're all sisters! Why fight for these? Forget it, An Wanyi, bow!" The reason why she had waited until now to bow was to warn her that her position as the Empress was bestowed to her, and that she had to know her own limits.
I sat quietly in my seat. No matter what others said, I didn't care. However, that didn't mean that I didn't have any thoughts in my heart. Didn't the Empress just want to praise me and embarrass me? Hehe, there's still a long way to go!
I calmly stood up and bowed respectfully.
The Empress smiled gracefully and said," This is indeed unfair to you, but don't take it to heart. As a concubine, you should remember your identity and responsibility and continue to have descendants for the Imperial Family. That's the blessing of our Great Zhou! Get up!"
I got up obediently, ignoring the various looks from the other concubines. He didn't care about Wanyi's position.
In the end, the Empress dismissed everyone with the excuse that she was not feeling well.
I held Qiao Hui's hand and slowly stepped on the snow to leave. Mei Zhuang held Cai Xing's hand and stood beside me with a faint smile.”
The snowflakes danced in the wind. It was really unromantic. I said coldly,"I wasn't favored, so I didn't care if I was promoted."”
Mei Zhuang was surprised." As expected, in this harem, you are the only one who is the most indifferent when faced with favor and doesn't care about difficulties!”She was wearing a rose-red muskrat fur coat, a gold pearl on her head, a pink silk flower, and ruby earrings dangling from her ears. She had a sweet smile on her face. She was no longer the woman of the past.
I didn't care," The more you get, the easier it is to be afraid of losing. I have nothing, so what's there to be afraid of? Just like this snowflake, no matter how brilliant and beautiful it is, it will eventually fall and melt in my palm! Everything is just fate!"
Mei Zhuang raised her slender hand. The sparkling snowflakes fell on her palm, making her seem even more beautiful and pure. Mei Zhuang's beautiful red lips gently said,"When I am with you, I feel that I am Shen Mei Zhuang and not some Hui Jie Yu or Hui Fei!"”
I said lightly,"I've always been sincere to you." Sister Mei's stunning beauty, why should she hide it? It was just that Sister Zhen was clearly disfigured, but she was still able to maintain her holy favor. It was puzzling!”
Mei Zhuang's eyes were covered with a layer of frost as she coldly snorted." She's just using makeup to show people. This can't change the fact that she's ugly!" However, you are right. Now that she is so favored, everyone has forgotten that Zhen Huan is just a woman with heavy makeup!”
I lightly said,"This harem empress is graceful and luxurious, and the former Concubine Hua is also beautiful." Qi noble face delicate and pretty, Fu noble gratifying, Xiang noble delicate and quiet, Rui noble innocent and beautiful. But to be honest, I can't even compare to Sister Mei!”
Mei Zhuang blushed and said shyly,"You're so talkative!" Don't you think I don't know my looks?" After saying that, she paused and carefully sized me up." The concubines in the harem all have their own merits, but the only unforgettable beauty is Sister An!”
I raised my eyebrows and said coldly," I don't know what I look like? Even the Empress knows that I am cold. Who else would like me other than you?”
Mei Zhuang said helplessly,"You're a rare beauty!" Although it was cold, it was a unique style in the entire harem! Especially the contradictory beauty between your eyebrows that is both weak and determined. I wonder how your enchanting little face will look when you smile!”After saying that, he stared at me.
I raised my eyebrows and said lightly,"It's just a beauty's skin."”
Mei Zhuang shook her head.”
I don't care,"Beauty can't escape from dry bones."”
Unknowingly, the two of them strolled to the Supreme Liquid Pool, where Xuan Ling and Zhu Rou met. There were no lotus flowers in the sky, only snow and ice on the lake. The entire world was a vast expanse of whiteness, where was the former spring to speak of?
"It's just a wild goose crossing the cold pond. Where did the beautiful scenery come from?" I don't care.
A wild goose flew across the water. Where was the beauty of such sadness?
Mei Zhuang was surprised. It is said that the world has seven emotions and six desires, but you are indifferent like an outsider!”
I walked to the lake and squatted down to scoop up some cold water. I said lightly," What a cold lake. Perhaps sleeping in the lake with this lotus is a pleasure!"”
Qiao Hui was shocked." Little Master, get up quickly. Be careful not to fall into the water!" The shore of the Supreme Liquid Pool was very slippery!”He quickly helped me up.
Mei Zhuang was surprised." Your idea is really scary. You don't look like a young woman at all!"”
I said coldly,"Maybe my heart is old!"”
Mei Zhuang sighed." The harem has always been the first to break off the favor before the beauty is old. I don't know if you and I can escape this fate!”
I looked at the Taiye Pool that was snowing and lightly said,"I used to go, willows and willows are still hanging. Now I come to think, rain and snow."”
Mei Zhuang sighed. He wondered if his mother and father were doing well. Another year is coming!"
My heart was touched and I said lightly,"May the years be peaceful and the world be stable!"”
Mei Zhuang praised,"Ling Rong is really a strange woman in the world. I admire her!" What else can't you see through?"
I lightly said,"A wise man looks at the world as if he is stupid, and lives a life of humility." But how difficult is it to do it?"
Mei Zhuang was silent. Ling Rong, the woman I admire the most in the entire harem is you! She was a rare and exquisite woman with peerless talent and unique charm.”
Not far away, Xuan Qing smiled at Xuan Ling and said,"Congratulations, Imperial Brother, for getting such an exquisite beauty!"”However, he felt very disappointed.
Xuan Ling looked at Ling Rong gently and said,"It's not bad."”
Li Changxiao said,"Your Majesty, do you want this servant to ask An Wanyi to move?"”
Xuan Ling smiled faintly and said,"It's inevitable to be restrained if you go. Why don't you just watch like this!"”Li Chang nodded and praised.
I raised my eyebrows and said indifferently,"Women either revolve around men or their descendants for their entire lives. How boring!" I envy those outsiders! There's no need to worry about this!"
Mei Zhuang smiled. I thought you had seen through the mortal world!”
I raised my eyebrows and said coldly,"People can't see through the world of mortals. Otherwise, what's the point of living?"”
Mei Zhuang sighed,"Ling Rong, your views are always refreshing!" That's right, if he saw through the mortal world, what was the point of living? Don't tell me you're going to be my sister-in-law?"
I raised my eyebrows and said coldly,"Why not?" If there was nothing to be tired of if one was heartless, it was because the world was too obsessed with appearances!”
Mei Zhuang said in surprise," If you are heartless, you won't be tired. How many people can't see through it, but you exposed it with one sentence!"”
I coolly turned around and indifferently said," Everyone has their own fate. Let's go. The snow is getting heavier!"”
Mei Zhuang said helplessly,"Forget it, let's go."”
Xuan Ling watched as the woman walked further and further away, but she kept repeating the phrase," Heartless is not tired." Could she really let it go like this?
Xuan Qing lightly smiled and said,"Imperial Brother, let's go too."”
Xuan Ling nodded and said lightly," Come with me to Yiyuan Hall for a game. I haven't played with you for a long time. I wonder if your chess skills have improved?"”
Xuan Qing smiled and said,"I'm just not as good as my royal brother." Imperial Brother, please show mercy!"
Misty Pavilion.
I dozed on the couch of a beauty.
Xu Wanhai personally brought a bowl of medicine and went forward to say softly,"Little Master, drink the medicine!"”
I opened my eyes and looked at the steaming soup. My eyes darkened and I raised my hand to drink it in one gulp.
Xu Wanhai put down the bowl of medicine and said thoughtfully," Young Master, Consort Hui and Consort Wan have both been promoted! As for Little Master…"
I looked at him with a faint smile and said coldly,"Are you trying to say that they have a knighthood ceremony, but I don't?"”
Xu Wanhai said in fear," This servant doesn't dare. It's just that the Emperor is like this. It's inevitable that the concubines in the harem will look down on Little Master!”
I sighed,"Who knows if you have the heart of an emperor?" He was the emperor, he could do whatever he wanted!”
Xu Wanhai probed,"Little Master, what should we do next?"”
I smiled coldly and said indifferently,"What else can I do?" Are you waiting to be manipulated?"
It was night.
Xuan Ling carefully drew the beauty who was sleeping on the soft couch in front of him. The red candle shone on her face, quiet and gentle. She did not look cold and indifferent. Her weak figure made people feel pity. This made her even more gentle and tempting.
She was wearing a snow-white silver fox fur coat and a pleated skirt with crabapple red clouds. Her silky hair was combed into a bun, and there was a hollowed-out orchid pearl hairpin on her right temple. At the end of the bun, there was a white jade bell hairpin that hung down gently. Her eyebrows were like distant mountains, her eyes were long and narrow, her nose was beautiful, and her lips were like diamonds.
With a moan, I slowly woke up. It was as if there was a burning gaze watching me. I turned around and stood up to bow in surprise." I'm here to attend the emperor. The emperor is here, but I fell asleep. I'm sorry!" Please forgive me, Your Majesty!" The beauty was half-squatting, and her phoenix eyes were as clear as autumn water and as bright as stars. There was also a faint sadness that attracted endless charm.
Xuan Ling smiled faintly." I saw that you were sleeping soundly and asked this servant not to wake you up." Get up, there are no outsiders!"
I raised my head and looked at this man. He was the man I loved, hated, and felt helpless about. His eyes were as clear and quiet as the moonlight. From afar, a cold arrogance could be felt from his bones. It was so bright that it was almost impossible to open one's eyes. The white robe was embroidered with flowing silver patterns. It was exquisite and exquisite.
I lightly said,"The emperor's etiquette cannot be wasted!" Otherwise, wouldn't the concubines have trouble sleeping?”
Xuan Ling couldn't help but laugh." I'm scared of you!" She looked at me with a gentle smile and said,"Rong 'er, come and take a look at the painting I made!"”
On the white paper, a beauty who looked like a crabapple sleeping in spring was leaning on a soft couch. She seemed to be sleeping very soundly and sweetly. The scene was gentle and peaceful. This artistic conception was very beautiful. The woman's expression and appearance were vividly displayed. It could be seen that the artist had put a lot of effort into painting.
I raised my heavy eyelashes, and a deep emotion appeared in my eyes. It made my heart become gentler, but at the same time, it also made me inexplicably sad. I said lightly," The emperor drew me very beautifully. I am very happy.”
Xuan Ling laughed heartily." Since you're happy, why don't you smile and show me? Rong 'er rarely smiles. In my memory, you've only smiled twice. That kind of beauty, I still can't forget!”Xuan Ling's eyes were filled with gentleness and nostalgia.
I turned around and looked at the waning moon outside the window.”
The delicate beauty seemed to have a myriad of worries that were about to disappear.
Suddenly, he felt a strong fear rising from the bottom of his feet. He could not grasp, grasp, or grasp Rong 'er no matter how hard he tried! He actually didn't understand her for a moment. What was she thinking in her heart?
Xuan Ling forced a smile and said,"Rong 'er, how can I not see you?" Zhen said that zhen was protecting you!"
"Does that include the conferring ceremony for the concubines? Concubines were already a joke in the harem!”I said dejectedly. She lowered her head sadly, and the clarity in her eyes turned deep and dark, like the most luxurious gemstone. However, it was darker than the night, so dark that there was not a trace of light.
Xuan Ling sighed and lifted my face. His long eyebrows seemed to be condensed from the distant mountains. His gentle eyes were filled with tears and his petal-like lips. My heart twitched slightly, but he smiled gently at me and said," Don't cry, I'm here! If I want to give you, I'll give you the best!"
I held Xuan Ling's hand tightly to my cheek, as if I had found the only thing I could rely on.
The night was very long.
