But the scene in the dream is slightly different from now.
Su Qian is no longer a modern woman who traveled from a thousand years later. Like the two of them, she is a person of this era.
In the dream, Su Qian was not called Su Qian, but Su Qingci, the unfavored daughter of Su Songqi, the right prime minister in the Nanchang Kingdom.
The right prime minister Su Songqi is different from the honest and upright left prime minister Sun Yunting. This man only sees benefits.
In Lu Huan's dream, Su Songqi was betrothed by his parents when he was young, and married Liu Jingru, the youngest daughter of the Minister of Personnel.
This marriage was originally a match between the two families, but after Liu Jingru got married, she found out that Su Songqi already had a lover.
Other things would be fine, but this person was actually a lowly brothel girl. Not only was she the daughter of a criminal, but she had also become a prostitute and her body was no longer pure.
Moreover, long before they got married, Su Songqi secretly carried her into the mansion in a sedan chair and made her his concubine.
Because Su Songqi had a prominent position and was very wealthy, he kept the matter under wraps and no word leaked out at all.
Poor Liu Jingru was completely unaware of this until she married into the mansion and suddenly realized the truth.
When the brothel girl was a prostitute, she learned a lot of lowly skills and ways of flattery, which made her very popular with Su Songqi.
As a result, she was able to get pregnant first and successfully gave birth to a concubine's eldest son.
Soon after, she gave birth to another son.
So she gave birth to a concubine's eldest son before Liu Jingru, and then gave birth to a younger son.
Seeing this brothel girl giving birth to children one after another, Su Songqi naturally couldn't help but be happy.
Furthermore, the woman often whispered in his ear, instigating, "How can our son have a prostitute who is guilty as his mother?"
Su Songqi found a fake background for her so that she could appear in public with a legitimate reason.
On the other hand, Liu Jingru, the youngest daughter of the Minister of Personnel, has been married into the Su family for more than two years, but there is still no sign of pregnancy.
Because of this, she was ridiculed by the outside world and people jokingly called her an old hen that couldn't lay eggs.
…
In order to protect her family's reputation, Liu Jingru had to abandon her pride as a noble lady and offer herself to Su Songqi.
In more than two years after their marriage, Su Songqi only touched her twice after drinking.
Su Songqi believed that if her parents had not interfered and insisted on marrying her to him as his wife, the brothel girl would not have been forced to become his concubine.
In Su Songqi's words, "If you hadn't been interfering, in two years, I would have found Qing'er a good family background, and she would have been able to marry me as my legal wife."
"Otherwise, how could there be a place for you in my backyard?"
"You are dull and boring. You look like a dead fish in bed. You are no match for Qing'er. Yet you still want to be my first wife. You don't deserve it!"
Liu Jingru was a noble lady from a prominent family. Since she was born, her every move was cultivated according to the standards of a legitimate wife.
Her behavior should be dignified and elegant. She should not be as unrestrained as prostitutes in bed and know how to please men.
But this is not a reason that Su Songqi can use to humiliate Liu Jingru.
Only after Liu Jingru got married did she realize what a hypocrite her husband was.
She hated him so much, but she had to please him and devote herself to him, just to get pregnant with a child, to avoid gossip outside and to avoid bringing shame to her mother's family.
Su Qingci was born in such a harsh environment.
Although his mother is the legal wife, she is of low status and is not favored. She has no biological son to rely on, and her father has no love for her at all. In the backyard, there is also a cunning, difficult and scheming concubine mother who is eyeing him covetously.
Under such circumstances, life is naturally miserable.
Especially that concubine, who was born into a prostitute family. Relying on her beauty and means, she gave birth to several boys in succession.
On the other hand, Liu Jingru went through so much trouble to get pregnant, but in the end, she only gave birth to a daughter.
In addition, the concubine often whispered in Su Songqi's ear and instigated him. Over time, Su Songqi felt that Liu Jingru was useless and even her pregnancy was not going well. So he became more and more doting on the brothel girl and completely ignored Liu Jingru.
In the entire Su family, Su Qingci is the only girl, and she is not liked at all.
Ever since this brothel concubine took charge of the household affairs, although she was a bit mean to Su Qingci in terms of daily food, clothing and other expenses, she had never thought of taking his life.
Maybe he thought Su Qingci posed no threat, or maybe he felt that keeping her still had some use.
…
When Su Qingci grew up a little, she found out that they kept her alive only because of the latter reason.
Su Qingci's appearance can be said to be a result of winning the genetic lottery.
She bends her slender waist and takes light steps, and her movements exude the ethereal grace of a fairy.
Her fingers were like scallion roots, her mouth was like a red cinnabar, her eyes were full of longing, and there was a red mole at the end of her eye, which made her look charming but not frivolous.
Although she wore no makeup and had a cold face, her stunning beauty could not be concealed. Her occasional frowns and smiles, like tears of affection, were enough to capture a man's heart.
The Su Qian in the dream, oh, no, it’s Su Qingci.
The only difference between her and Su Qian today is a red mole at the corner of her eye.
One day, Su Songqi took Su Qingci to a grand banquet.
The host of the banquet is the son of the current emperor Gao Qinglie, the only crown prince of Nanchang State and also the candidate for the future emperor.
At this moment, Su Qingci was secretly wondering why her father cared about her so much today and brought her to attend this grand and solemn banquet, and solemnly introduced her in front of the ministers in the court.
