Chapter 266 Understanding the Original Body
Emperor Xuanwu said only after Jiang Xinyue sat on the main seat: "No need to be polite, stand up."
Jiang Xinyan stood beside Jiang Xinyue and looked for her cousins Yuncai and Yunxia from her eldest uncle's family.
Although the eldest uncle's official position was not high and her aunt's seat was not very front, the two cousins came with her mother, so it was easy to see them in the front seat at the bottom.
There was no extra seat next to Jiang Xinyue, and if she kept her sister next to her, there would be a large light bulb of several kilowatts, and it would be too eye-catching.
She looked at the sisters Jiang Yunxia and Jiang Yuncai, and they both bowed to her kindly to show courtesy and respect.
"Sister, go sit with your two cousins!"
The two girls in the eldest uncle's family are eighteen and nineteen years old, but the Great Yan Dynasty is different from all dynasties in history in terms of the age at which women can get married.
There is no hard and fast rule that women must get married at the age of fifteen, but if they are still unmarried at the age of twenty, the government will intervene and force the woman to marry.
Jiang Yunxia is nineteen years old this year.
The eldest uncle probably knew that he still had the opportunity to be promoted, so he was not in a hurry to arrange a marriage for the eldest cousin, thinking that if he had a higher official position, he could find a better husband for the two cousins.
Parents who love their children will plan for them in the long run. Her
stepfather also has some kindness for her, but this kindness is mixed with too many other things.
If she had not been favored, and had been loved by the emperor and blessed the entire family, I think the next person to be sent to the palace would have been Jiang Xinyan.
Only now did Jiang Xinyue gradually understand her original self.
When she was at home, she had to be vigilant at all times to prevent Madam Zhou from harming her, her younger brothers and sisters, and her mother.
She was ferocious and ruthless in front of those who had ill intentions towards her, and her body was covered with thorns. She had to act weak and innocent in front of her father so that the head of the family could say a few fair words for her.
She always held herself tightly, so after entering the palace, she wanted to start a new life and get the emperor's favor so that her younger brothers and sisters and mother could live a good life.
But after she entered the palace, she was ostracized by the concubines because of her outstanding appearance. The criminal Ye who was drowned in a dung bucket for conspiracy was jealous of her appearance from the beginning, and deliberately became friends with her, wanting to use her as her stepping stone.
Although the original body had not lost herself at that time and was on guard against everyone, once she entered the palace, she became the emperor's woman. Among these women, her appearance was incomparable, so it was inevitable that she had some delusions.
Especially later, Emperor Xuanwu turned over her cards several times and bombarded her with sweet words. Her nerves that had been tense for so many years relaxed, and she was bewitched by the emperor's warmth. She really thought that she had bewitched the emperor.
She might not be such a stupid person, but she wanted to find a support so that she didn't have to spend so much effort on her schemes.
Ye was jealous that she was really favored, so she arranged for Shuangjiang to lurk beside her so that she could secretly pass on intelligence in the future and facilitate her to gain favor in the same way.
If Ye relied on imitating her to gain favor, then there would be no need for her, the original owner, to exist.
After all, only the dead Bai Yueguang has the greatest killing power.
In the Yu Garden, Ye deliberately picked the crabapple flowers and inserted them in the original owner's hair, just to use Concubine Li Guifei's hand to destroy the original body.
As long as her face is destroyed, the emperor will no longer care about her.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Xinyue from the 21st century traveled through time that day.
The real Jiang Xinyue... must be very unwilling to die like this!
However, it was because of the travel of Jiang Xinyue from later generations that the original body's destined tragic ending was changed.
Now the situation of the Jiang family is very good. My mother will soon become the main wife. My sister and brother will be protected by him and will not suffer in the future.
"Jiang Xinyue, I hope you can be reborn into a happy family in your next life, and get the complete love of your parents without having to resort to trickery."
There seemed to be a strange feeling around her, and the black smoke disappeared with a "whoosh".
Emperor Xuanwu rubbed his eyes, and his eyes that had been staring at Jiang Xinyue finally made her aware of something.
Bathed in the holy light, in the bright lights, the beauty whose beauty became clearer and clearer blinked: "Your Majesty, why do you always look at me?"
It should be because he has not had a good rest recently, and his eyes are dazzled!
The emperor smiled: "Look at my Yue'er, why does she seem to be particularly beautiful today?"
He was not trying to please Jiang Xinyue, but he really felt that her beauty seemed to have improved a little at that moment.
Jiang Xinyue touched her fair face and said, "It's because the emperor likes me too much, so he thinks I'm pretty no matter how he looks at me!"
But she did feel relaxed just now, as if all the negative obsessions had disappeared, and she felt liberated.
She didn't know if it was because the emperor arranged the banquet according to her preferences, which really made her very happy or what?
Who cares?
A puff of white smoke rose in the garden, and under the seats were groups of beautiful singing and dancing girls, showing their beauty and style to everyone.
In addition to the beauties who were slightly older and better at singing and dancing collected from all over the folk, there were also descendants of guilty ministers who were sent to the Jiaofangsi.
However, later generations have a misunderstanding about the Jiaofangsi, thinking that this place is full of official prostitutes. In fact , it
is not the case. They only sing, dance and play the piano at banquets for the nobles to watch. Not everyone can go and play with them. Of course, if a singing and dancing girl wants to get close to someone and leaves the Jiaofangsi, that is another story.
The beauties are dressed coolly, dancing in the mist, lights and flowers, with beautiful songs and music in their ears and graceful dances in front of them. No wonder everyone wants to be the emperor.
This top-level visual feast is indeed easy to make people fall.
"Your Majesty, on behalf of the people of the Great Yan Dynasty, I offer a toast to Your Majesty. Because of such a diligent and people-loving wise ruler, our Great Yan Dynasty can develop and become increasingly powerful. Your Majesty's contribution will be passed down through the ages, and we admire you very much!"
With the first person to flatter, there will be a series of flatterers.
However, the first one is Jiang Xinyue's adopted father, so she feels more relieved.
The eunuch beside the emperor quickly filled the emperor's glass and then returned to his seat.
Wang Dequan stepped forward to test the poison with a silver needle, and then poured a little on his finger and ate it. After a while, when he felt nothing unusual, Emperor Xuanwu picked up the wine glass and smiled at Jiang Yankunyao: "I am also very pleased that you have brought the Great Yan Dynasty to the peak with me. Now I also toast you a glass. I hope you will always remember in the future that when you are in a high position, you must sympathize with the people, not do things that are corrupt and unjust, and appreciate this beautiful land with me."
One day, he will crush the foreign Hu and the Hu, let the world return to one, no more wars, and return peace and prosperity to the people of the world.
When Jiang Xinyue covered her lips with her sleeves, all the wine fell to the ground.
