Those lashes nearly shattered Tao Luoran's bones.
After her tragic death, Tao Luoran opened her eyes again and realized that she had returned to the very beginning.
That maid had been immersed in the world of pleasure for many years and had a miraculous encounter, with many important figures becoming her lovers.
Tao Luoran is no match for her now.
Rather than risking her life to outwit that maid, Tao Luoran chose a more difficult path—she wanted to enter the palace.
Once she becomes someone of high status, those who once bothered her will be like ants, and she can do whatever she wants with them.
In her previous life, Tao Luoran was secretly harmed by her aunt during a talent show, which caused her to develop a rash and ultimately prevented her from entering the palace.
In this lifetime, she wanted to turn the tables on him.
That rash requires a rare medicine to cure, and only a few families have that medicine.
So, Tao Luoran approached Yuwen Zhuo.
The two have known each other since childhood. Yuwen Zhuo once wanted to take the lovely Tao Luoran home to raise, so they have a history together.
Tao Luoran couldn't find anyone else, and she didn't dare to trust anyone easily.
But she knew that Yuwen Zhuo was a rare person with a pure heart.
Finding him should be foolproof.
With this plan in mind, Tao Luoran quickly contacted Yuwen Zhuo.
After thinking it over, Yuwen Zhuo decided to keep the appointment.
Tao Luoran has grown into a very beautiful woman, and now she is in the prime of her life, making her even more captivating at first sight.
But Yuwen Zhuo's face remained completely expressionless.
Once you've seen the ocean, other waters seem insignificant.
He had experienced genuine attraction, but his heart had long since ceased to be devoted to romantic love.
After giving the medicine to Tao Luoran, Yuwen Zhuo reminded her, "If you still have any difficulties, feel free to come to me."
Tao Luoran's life wasn't going well either.
Her mother had long since passed away, and her father was bewitched by her aunt, never giving her a kind look.
On the surface, she is the daughter of an official, but in reality, she lives a life of constant anxiety.
Yuwen Zhuo originally wouldn't have much contact with women, but now men and women are no different in his eyes.
If Tao Luoran hadn't been in real trouble, she wouldn't have come to him for help.
With this expectation in mind, he did his best to help if he could.
Tao Luoran was on the verge of tears.
Since her rebirth, she has been on guard, and nightmares have haunted her, preventing her from sleeping peacefully every day.
Yuwen Zhuo's selfless kindness filled her with indescribable sadness, melancholy, and warmth.
"Thank you very much. I will repay your kindness if I have the chance."
Tao Luoran spoke with great seriousness; she was speaking from the bottom of her heart.
Yuwen Zhuo nodded without saying anything.
After receiving the medicine, Tao Luoran successfully avoided being harmed by others during the talent show and was allowed to keep her name tag.
All the young women who entered the palace this time were beautiful.
Tao Luoran secretly made up her mind that she must become a person above others!
The Empress Dowager proposed the selection of children, and Jiang Ting realized that she wasn't just being malicious; she genuinely wanted him to have a child.
However, it would be best if a woman from the Empress Dowager's maternal clan became pregnant.
With a casual attitude, Jiang Ting agreed.
His life needs to get back on track.
From any perspective, he and Jiang Tian were not meant to be.
Jiang Tian has found a lover she will never forget. Despite knowing him for so long, she has never even given him a serious look.
Not disturbing her is the best course of action.
Let us all live in peace, never to meet again in this life, at least peacefully and steadily.
Jiang Ting genuinely wanted to get rid of a certain sense of emptiness within him.
Humans always have seven emotions and six desires.
It's only natural for him to like a woman.
It's understandable that the person didn't like him.
But... Jiang Ting felt a strange sense of loss.
Jiang Tian never even saw through his thoughts.
She knew that Yuwen Zhuo had feelings for her, so she politely declined.
As for Jiang Ting, no one knows what he's thinking.
Her gaze never lingered on him for long.
Stepping out is naturally the best option.
Jiang Ting wanted to move on.
He can't waste his time on a relationship that hasn't even started.
As an emperor, the Jiang family had lasted for so many generations; how could it be cut off with him?
He has a responsibility to continue his lineage.
A vast empire must have a successor.
That was his thinking, so he tacitly approved the start of the talent show.
The Empress Dowager showed him the various imperial edicts regarding the conferment of the title of Imperial Concubine, and he nodded in agreement.
Now that the talent show is over, the palace has many beautiful new faces.
Everyone has expectations of emperors.
In fact, they had heard rumors about Jiang Ting.
It is said that His Majesty dislikes women and only associates with his close advisors, treating the many concubines in the palace as if they were nothing.
But those absurd claims have no basis.
If the emperor doesn't like the concubines in the palace, he'll just replace them with a new batch; there will always be someone he likes.
The Empress Dowager's thinking was that simple and straightforward.
As the Empress Dowager, this woman had experienced many vicissitudes and possessed wisdom, but Jiang Ting's ruthless methods also made her see the fangs of this young emperor.
He is definitely not the gentle and refined person he appears to be.
If that's the case, the Empress Dowager will stop pretending with him.
It's true that she had her own ulterior motives, but she was even more aware of the impact on the country if a young and vigorous emperor couldn't even have a child.
Even if the child is a girl, it would prove that the emperor is not incapable of sexual intercourse.
A new batch of concubines entered the palace, and the Empress Dowager summoned several people to remind Jiang Ting that he had responsibilities as the emperor.
Jiang Ting saw through the Empress Dowager's thoughts, and he also tried to get over the previous unrequited and ephemeral emotional wound and become a normal emperor.
