The two came to the front of the Taihe Palace.

Standing on the steps, looking back at the Taihedian Square, which was much larger than a standard football field, Cao Yue smiled and said to Zheng Han: "In ancient times, no matter how powerful the concubines were, in fact, the area of daily activities was mainly in the imperial city. It is extremely difficult for them to get out of the imperial city, where they are as free as ordinary girls, and they can go wherever they want. ”

Zheng Han replied with a smile: "However, there are so many women who are eager for the identity of concubines. Every year in the draft, countless women with outstanding looks and talents are selected into the palace, hoping to be favored by the most powerful man. ”

Cao Yue glanced at Zheng Han and said with emotion: "Indeed, so many beautiful and talented women, the only goal in their lives is to be favored by the most powerful man. ”

"Are you trying to say that those women are cheap?"

"No," Cao Yue shook his head, "People in every era have their own different outlooks on life and values. For women in ancient times, being able to win the emperor's favor and become the emperor's concubine was the greatest achievement of their lives. Unfortunately, there are very few people who get their wish. ”

"Most beautiful and talented women can only be depressed for the rest of their lives. Zheng Han sighed slightly, looking very emotional.

"But every woman hopes to be the lucky one," Cao Yue said, looking at Zheng Han meaningfully, "They know that once they are favored by that man, not only can they start a lucky life from now on, but their families will also be wiped out, and they will have glory and wealth for several lifetimes." ”

Zheng Han glared at Cao Yue dissatisfiedly, "Do you want to show that I am the lucky woman?"

Cao Yue smiled, ignored Zheng Han's dissatisfaction, looked back at the tall Taihe Palace, and said softly: "As long as a man is powerful, even if he is ugly, he will be favored by the beauties of the whole world." The same is true for women in today's era, and they are more realistic than ancient women, rich and powerful men have undoubtedly become the golden beetle son-in-law in their minds. If you have money, power, and appearance, it is the object of women's pursuit. So, this is a normal social phenomenon, and there is nothing surprising about it. ”

"It's not implying that I'm the lucky woman," Zheng Han reached out and pinched Cao Yue dissatisfiedly, "I said, if you regret it, or regret it at any time." ”

"Don't be so sensitive, okay? It's normal to walk into historical attractions and complain a few words related to history, right?" Cao Yue took Zheng Han's hand, walked to the door of the Taiji Palace, and pointed to the dragon chair inside, "The men sitting in these positions do not think about women the most, but about the country and the world." , they can have the world, but it is not easy to have a woman who really loves him and he loves deeply. Couples like Li Shimin and Empress Changsun are rare in history. No matter how many women they have, it is extremely rare to have a confidant. ”

Zheng Han didn't reply immediately, but after thinking about it seriously, he seemed to understand what Cao Yue meant.

"I will look for my only soul mate in the vast sea of people, I am lucky, not my life, Xu Zhimo's two sentences are actually a portrayal of most men's hearts. Even if they are like emperors, they will feel satisfied if they can have a confidant partner. Although Li Longji caused the Tang Dynasty to decline from extreme prosperity because of his favor with Yang Yuhuan, their love story can last for thousands of years. ”

Hearing Cao Yue's words, Zheng Han was a little confused, and he didn't know what Cao Yue wanted to express.

Seeing Zheng Han's confused face, Cao Yue said again: "So, I feel very lucky to meet you in this life." No matter what, you are the woman I love the most, and there is no one of the most important women in my life except my mother. I want to do great things, I want to get more, and I hope you don't think too much. ”

"Including women?" Zheng Han asked suspiciously.

"They have the freedom to pursue me, and my decision to choose you is mine. Cao Yue said, and finally said what he wanted to express: "I already have a wife like you, I think if they just want the title of wife, then they will be interested and leave." If they don't want fame and wealth, and are willing to give up everything to follow me, I can't bear to drive them away, and I need your hand to let them go. ”

"As you said earlier, you can't deduce the conclusion behind it," Zheng Han looked at Cao Yue with a dissatisfied face, "You are talking nonsense, I am in a fog when I hear it." If I understand correctly, what you want to convey is: you will achieve a lot in the future, you want to have many women, but you only love me the most, so I hope I don't care that you have other women, is that what you mean?"

"Don't talk about that, let's continue shopping," Cao Yue just smiled, not denying or admitting it.

Zheng Han obediently grabbed Cao Yue's arm and continued to walk forward.

Soon came to Kunning Palace.

"The villa in Hangzhou, is it my Kunning Palace?" Zheng Han looked at Cao Yue with a smile, "If I, I will live there when I go back." ”

Cao Yue stretched out his hand and pinched Zheng Han's pretty face, and quipped: "Hehe, what kind of palace do you live in "The Romance of the Tang Dynasty"?"

Zheng Han didn't struggle, Ren Cao Yue pinched her face, and after Cao Yue put down her hand, she sighed slightly: "Drama is like life, life is like drama." ”

Cao Yue ignored what he joked with Zheng Han, and dragged her to Jingshan after walking around the Forbidden City's harbour for a long time.

"Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself on this tree," Cao Yue pointed to the crooked-necked tree halfway up the mountainside, and said to Zheng Han: "Those women of Emperor Chongzhen may never have thought that the man with the highest power would one day not even be able to protect his own women and his own heirs, so he had to hang a rope on the tree and swing a few swings to ruin his life. ”

Zheng Han couldn't help but sigh: "The fate of the two emperors of the Song Dynasty and Huiqin is even more tragic than Chongzhen. ”

"No matter what, I will protect you from harm, even if I die. Cao Yue said proudly: "I will not let my family be hurt by others, no matter whether I have power or not." ”

Zheng Han turned his head, glanced at Cao Yue blankly for a few moments, and then smiled brightly, "I believe what you said." I also believe that whoever wants to hurt us, you will stand up. If you can be your woman, no one will dare to bully you. You won't let people hurt your children and elders, and you're lucky to be with a man like you. ”

"Lucky but not happy?" Cao Yue asked rhetorically.

Zheng Han replied meaningfully: "If I don't care about some things, I will be happy." ”

"I hope we can look back on this life with a sense of happiness. Cao Yue took Zheng Han's hand again, continued to walk forward, and when he left, he said with emotion: "Of course, the premise is that I can accompany you to the end." ”

Hearing Cao Yue's words, Zheng Han was instantly touched, and after a period of sadness, he reached out and grabbed Cao Yue's arm tightly, unwilling to let go.
