With tears in her eyes, Ning Zixin helped her brother to a palace.
This is her palace.
She was a Jieyu, and had her own separate palace.
But what good was it? She could never keep the emperor, not even from the first day she entered the palace.
I doubt anyone else is like her, having been in the palace for over a year and still remaining innocent.
"Brother, you rest first, I'll go and call the imperial physician to come and see you."
Where are the people around you?
Why would a mere concubine like her need to go there herself to summon the imperial physician?
"They've all run away. Who would want to follow a woman like me who's not favored? Hongxiu and Fuliu are sorting through the things you brought." There were no eunuchs in her palace; even the hard labor was done by two maids.
Ning Zi gave a bitter smile, placed her brother on the bed, and turned to run outside.
Ning Hong went over, locked the doors and windows, and prepared to receive the memories.
This time it's another dynasty I don't recognize.
After the Tang Dynasty, history seemed to take a sharp turn, veering off into the distance.
The Tang Dynasty was not followed by the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. It seems that a great talent appeared out of nowhere and turned the tide at the end of the Tang Dynasty, preventing its disintegration. However, the Li family of the Tang Dynasty still did not exist. This person ascended the throne as emperor and named the country Qin.
That's right, it's Qin.
Because this person's surname is Qin.
So, several years later, the Qin state reappeared in the torrent of history.
Moreover, the development of this Qin state was not as short-lived as that Qin state.
It has been more than three hundred years since the throne was passed down to this monarch.
The protagonist of the story is Qin Mu, the current monarch.
The male protagonist, Qin Mu, ascended the throne at a young age and worked tirelessly to govern the Qin Dynasty, leading it to a higher level.
In the year he turned twenty-eight, the people of Qin lived in peace and prosperity, and the army was strong and well-equipped.
But this emperor was fond of beautiful women.
The more beautiful a person is, the more I like them.
The granddaughter of the Grand Tutor was exceptionally talented and renowned, but no one dared to marry her. This was all because of a joke the Emperor made years ago, saying that she was nearing the end of her life. This caused the Grand Tutor, who was already quite old, to enter the palace tremblingly, hoping that the Emperor would grant her a marriage and give her a suitable husband.
The Grand Tutor's granddaughter was named Liu Linglong. She was beautiful. How to describe her beauty? Have you seen the fairy sister? That's the kind of beauty she was.
She was ethereal and clear, exuding an otherworldly aura.
Of course, when the man and woman first met, the female lead wasn't nearly as beautiful.
The female lead was born with poor health. When the male lead first saw her, she was recovering from a serious illness, her face was sallow, and her spiritual energy had been depleted by the illness.
When the male protagonist saw her, he couldn't help but remark that she didn't look like she was going to live much longer.
Because of that one sentence, she was ignored by everyone from then on. Despite her widespread fame and beauty, no decent family would want to marry a woman who could die at any moment.
If it weren't for the fact that the person who said this was the Emperor, the Grand Tutor's entire family would probably have fought with him.
Have you ever seen anyone treat someone so badly?
His daughter is nineteen now, and still no one dares to come and propose marriage.
Feeling guilty, the Emperor naturally agreed. With a wave of his hand, he reserved the position of Consort Zhaoyi in his harem for her.
The Grand Tutor then left satisfied.
The story revolves around this sickly female protagonist and the emperor.
It was nothing more than a chance encounter that led the emperor to meet the frail, innocent, and beautiful heroine. The two were instantly smitten and their passionate feelings for each other ignited.
Then came jealousy, misunderstandings, making up, arguing again—a whole series of melodramatic soap opera-like events.
As for his poor sister, she had long been thrown to Java by the emperor.
The Ning family are merchants.
Generally speaking, how could a merchant's daughter enter the palace as a concubine? This was the sin of the previous emperor.
The late emperor's father was a man of extravagance. During his reign, he built luxurious palaces, the Summer Palace, the Temple of Heaven, and so on, emptying the national treasury. Fortunately, the weather was favorable during his reign, and no major disasters occurred.
When the late emperor ascended the throne, an earthquake struck Dongjun immediately, leaving the national treasury empty. What would he use to provide disaster relief?
The late emperor was in a state of distress, so he walked in the street and encountered the Ning family.
The Ning family had been merchants for generations, and were known for their generosity and loyalty. They had a very pleasant conversation with the late emperor.
Of course, at this point he was unaware that the person in front of him was the emperor.
It's said that fate plays a significant role in relationships. Two people inexplicably admired each other, and within half a day of meeting, they became almost inseparable. Upon hearing of the brother's family's difficulties, the brother didn't hesitate to take out 500,000 yuan.
Actually, this was a very dangerous thing. The Ning family was exposed too early. Fortunately, the late emperor was a good emperor.
Although they were short of money, they still had their bottom line. Otherwise, the first person they would have ripped off would have been Ning Hao from the Ning family.
Afterwards, the late emperor took the initiative to reveal his identity to Ning Hao and told him about the state treasury. Ning Hao was a man of strong character and was naturally willing to help the late emperor overcome this difficulty.
The Ning family has nothing else, but they have an extraordinary amount of money.
The Ning family may not be good at literature, but they are good at making money.
However, they were also afraid that having too much money would attract covetous eyes, so they all kept a low profile and made their fortune quietly.
Upon seeing this, the late emperor immediately bestowed upon them the title of Imperial Merchants and granted them an ironclad decree. As long as they possessed this decree and did not commit treason, and as long as the Qin Dynasty existed, the Ning family would be safe. Therefore, the Ning family could finally act with complete freedom.
They returned the cut to the late emperor.
In just ten years, the national treasury was full.
The late emperor can finally rest easy and no longer worry about the national treasury.
