When Concubine Xiang went to pay her respects, the Queen was smiling.
The concubines all had swollen eyes.
She felt like she had entered the Hall of Yama, and the ten Yama Kings were staring at her with eyes that seemed to want to torture her to death first.
Qiao Luoluo once said four words to describe the current situation aptly:
Black chicken and Spanish mackerel.
Last night's experience was so intoxicating that Concubine Xiang was immersed in the aftermath of a one-night stand.
While responding, she couldn't help showing some smug looks, which made everyone want to tear her into pieces.
The queen suppressed her anger, gave her some toys and jewelry, and specially gave her a statue of Guanyin, the goddess of fertility.
Emphasize that she is the only woman in the palace favored by the emperor. Naturally, the responsibility of giving birth to children and continuing the emperor's lineage falls on your head.
The concubines mocked her, and Concubine Xiang accepted it all.
She has a good attitude and understands that the more others envy you, the better you are.
For 8 consecutive days, the emperor favored only Concubine Xiang.
After serving the emperor in bed every day, she would be given the best pregnancy medicine. It was obvious that she was going to let Concubine Xiang give birth to a legitimate son.
The Queen's family was anxious, and other prominent families were also anxious.
In this dynasty, when appointing a crown prince, it is better to appoint the eldest son than the legitimate heir, because—
The first high priests concluded that the spiritual energy of the parents would be concentrated in the eldest son.
Therefore, regardless of whether he is legitimate or illegitimate, the eldest son is the most important.
What followed was a fierce selection of concubines, with all families trying their best to send their daughters to the palace.
However, the selection lasted for three days, and the emperor only selected a few daughters of high-ranking officials according to convention.
It is clear at first glance that it is to pacify the power struggle between the former dynasty and the harem, not for his own preference.
After the selection was over, the emperor said something thought-provoking: Although newcomers are good, it is difficult to find beautiful women again.
So he walked away, and the audition came to an end.
After the selection, the emperor still favored Concubine Xiang alone.
Concubine Xiang devoted herself wholeheartedly to the emperor, and personally made his favorite soup every day and brought it to him.
The emperor was diligent in his work and loved his people. He reviewed memorials day and night. Concubine Xiang spent most of her day waiting for the emperor.
Even though he was right next to her, Pei Su was busy reviewing memorials and ignored her.
After he finished reviewing the papers, she would eat, talk, walk and chat with her, and occasionally want to touch him, but he would avoid her.
Pei Su said that this was disrespectful and that etiquette should be observed during the day.
But at night, he plundered her so crazily again, eating her up inch by inch, wishing to tear apart every piece of her flesh and bones and eat them into his stomach.
This contrast is even more fascinating.
Because of this, Concubine Xiang became a little arrogant and ridiculed and mocked some concubines in her words to show that she was favored.
She deliberately revealed the kiss mark on her neck to arouse everyone's jealousy.
When jealousy comes, there will be more people poisoning people.
She no longer tolerated it and pretended to be poisoned to drive Pei Su crazy, and ordered a thorough investigation.
She found out about the fifteen concubines of low rank and sentenced them all to death to vent her anger.
And promoted her to the position of concubine to appease her.
Those concubines who were sentenced to death were basically spies sent by various court officials.
The worst off in this contest should be the Queen's party. The Emperor has been on the throne for more than two months and has never touched the Queen.
All those who were stuffed in were sentenced to death.
Marquis Ding'an made mistakes in a hurry and encountered problems again and again. The emperor caught him and punished and warned him for the first time.
But there was no particularly big move. Instead, Marquis Ding'an touched the emperor's bottom line and further extended his tentacles to cause trouble.
When the court officials saw that Marquis Ding'an had been punished and the empress's power was weakened, they immediately sent more beauties into the palace.
He also told them that they only needed to get the emperor and not harm anyone else.
Pei Su accepted everything as usual, and the harem became more and more lively.
Just when everyone thought that Pei Su would still favor Concubine Xiang alone, the emperor summoned a noble lady who had just entered the palace.
Xiang Guipin's heart sank to the bottom. She knew this day would come sooner or later, but she didn't expect it to come so soon.
The night the emperor summoned that beauty, she sat in her palace and cried all night.
My heart felt like it was torn open with a bloody hole.
It hurts, but not too much.
This feeling was like being stabbed in a dream. She knew it was a dream and she should be in pain and bleeding.
However, she knew that she was not actually cut, and she would not bleed.
Very wonderful and tearing!
Therefore, when she received the letter from that man again, she burned it without even reading it.
For the first time, she disobeyed him.
Once a problem is opened, it becomes unbearable.
Pei Su successively favored several extremely beautiful concubines, and Xiang Guipin was no longer the only one who accompanied him.
Concubine Xiang, who was once extremely favored, became neglected in less than two months.
The king’s grace is like flowing water, it flows away without looking back.
Today is the emperor's birthday banquet.
The mourning period for the late emperor had already passed, so the ceremony was held with great grandeur.
The emperor, empress and concubines attended the ceremony in their best attire.
During this period, the emperor and empress were in love and affection, which made people envious.
After the singing and dancing, it was time for the tribute ceremony.
The ministers presented countless gold, silver, jade, jewelry, calligraphy and paintings.
Only the Minister of Personnel, Qin Pu, sent three beauties.
One is his legitimate daughter, Qin Yufei, and the other two are his illegitimate daughters, Qin Yuyan and Qin Yuzhu.
The three sisters danced with their faces covered. Their figures were enchanting and their dancing was graceful, which aroused the jealousy and contempt of the concubines.
A gust of wind blew, and the veil of the third sister Qin Yuzhu was blown off.
In an instant, the stunning appearance shocked everyone present!
Especially the emperor, the empress, and Concubine Xiang.
