Help me?

Zhou Guifei looked up at the sky, and smiled faintly, infinitely miserable.

After a long time......

"Sixth brother, do you know why I helped you last night?" she asked suddenly, something flashing in her eyes.

Zhou Zechen shook his head. He couldn't understand the eldest sister's eyes.

Zhou Guifei smiled again, "Sixth brother, others don't know, but you should know: as the daughter of our Zhou family, it seems to be extremely beautiful, but in fact, it is miserable." Look at me, look at Yuerong, look at Yueqin, and look at the sisters in the family who are not yet married...... In the past, my grandfather had been pressing the family affairs of my sisters, and I was waiting for it now, right?"

Zhou Zechen frowned slightly.

"Why, don't you understand?" Zhou Guifei smiled faintly again, and said with a slight sneer, "Also, sixth brother, you have always been obsessed with cultivation, and you probably won't care about these little things in the back house." But now, it's time for you to learn too. ”

Zhou Guifei looked at her younger brother and smiled faintly, "Sixth brother, don't you understand! In the past, others thought that the daughter of our Zhou family was a family with a thousand families, but my grandfather felt sorry for us and kept biting and not letting go." But now it seems that he is sorry for our sisters. Grandfather, he's obviously waiting for today. At present, the younger sisters in the family who have not yet left the cabinet are probably the best bargaining chips that my grandfather will use to win over courtiers in the future for marriage. ”

Heaven is unfair, the world is difficult, and the women in this world are even more difficult......

This is the sorrow of being a woman, being a woman of such a family.

Zhou Guifei smiled helplessly and helplessly.

Zhou Zechen was silent.

He couldn't refute it, because he knew that what the eldest sister said was right.

He couldn't refute these things.

Although, he didn't want to...... But grandfather......

Zhou Zechen looked at Zhou Guifei's eyes, full of apologies.

As the son of the Zhou family, he is indeed much luckier than his sisters......

"Sixth brother, you don't have to look at me like that. Zhou Guifei smiled again, the tears in the corners of her eyes finally couldn't help but welled up, she sniffed and said lightly, "Actually, we sisters have been envious of you since childhood." You have the talent for cultivation, and the talent is so good! Your grandfather was different from you since you were a child, and he even made you the heir of the family early...... Do you remember, when you were younger, every sister in the family loved to revolve around you. But at that time, you coldly rejected people thousands of miles away, with a cold face all day long, ignoring the sisters......"

Zhou Zechen sighed.

When he was a child, it was not that he didn't know why his sisters at home were pestering him. It's just that, at that time, he didn't feel necessary. ---- future, my grandfather will always make decisions for his sisters and arrange a good family affair. Therefore, he thought that they did not need to pester themselves all day long, planning for their future...... So, he has been indifferent to ......

Looking at Zhou Zechen like this, Zhou Guifei smiled again.

"Sixth brother," she said, "at that time, you probably thought that we were delaying your cultivation and it was very annoying, right? Gradually, the sisters in the family knew about your cold temperament, and they slowly stopped pestering you...... But, you know what? We really envy you......."

When Zhou Zechen heard this, he couldn't be silent any longer.

"Eldest sister," he said silently, "Actually, in my grandfather's eyes, we are all pawns. So, none of us need to envy anyone......"

Zhou Guifei laughed again, and her smile became more and more miserable.

"Yes, you're right. In fact, in my grandfather's eyes, we were all just pawns in his hands. The sisters are the pawns he uses to win over the government, and you are the pawns he uses to stabilize the academy. So......" she looked back at Zhou Zechen, "So, since I know the hardships of being a chess piece, I don't want my sisters to continue to be chess pieces! Sixth brother, my life is over, and you, can you help the sisters in the family?"

Zhou Zechen nodded. "Eldest sister, don't worry, the younger sisters in the family...... I'll do my best. ”

Zhou Guifei looked at him and smiled, smiling happier than before.

"Good. Sixth brother, the eldest sister really didn't misunderstand you. In this way, it is not in vain that I took the risk to help you last night. "Only, grandfather's side...... You're just afraid that you'll have to think of an excuse to get around. ”

Zhou Zechen nodded, "Thank you for the reminder, I know." ”

Zhou Guifei smiled and did not speak.

Zhou Zechen looked at her and frowned slightly, "Eldest sister, I will do the same with the sisters in the family, but what about you? Now that the emperor is dead, what are you going to do?"

"Me?" Zhou Guifei laughed again, laughing a little bitterly and mockingly, "What else can I do? ”

Zhou Zechen's brows furrowed even tighter. "Eldest sister, do you want to get out of the palace and start your life again? maybe, I can help you ......"

"You can't help me!" Zhou Guifei shook her head and interrupted him, "Sixth brother, listen to me." Now, I am still useful to my grandfather, so I can't get out of that palace gate, and you can't help me. ”

Why?

Zhou Zechen asked silently.

"Sixth brother, you still don't understand these harem things. Zhou Guifei laughed more and more sarcastically, "Who is my grandfather? Now he is pressing the major affairs of the court and the central government, but he is refusing to ascend the throne and become the emperor, for what? What is the reason for him to handle the emperor's funeral affairs and put hundreds of officials under house arrest in the palace? After all, isn't it just for a good reputation? So ......?"

"So......" Zhou Guifei sighed slightly sarcastically, "I am his old man's good reputation." Sixth brother, don't forget, now, I am also the emperor's widow...... Therefore, for the sake of a good reputation for treating the widows of the royal family of the previous dynasty, my grandfather would never let me out of the palace. I need to stay in the palace and set an example so that everyone in the world knows how generous and kind my grandfather was and how kind he was to the widow of the former emperor......"

Zhou Guifei smiled again, such a smile with tears in her eyes, it was extremely sad to see.

Zhou Zechen said goodbye.

The eldest sister is not yet twenty years old this year......

"Sister, don't say it. He whispered, "The emperor's widows are many...... Not one worse than you. ”

"No," Zhou Guifei shook her head with a smile, "Sixth brother, you are wrong. Although there are many widows of the emperor, I am the only widow who may be an example in the world, can be obedient and obedient, and can reassure my grandfather. So, my grandfather and his old man are really only missing me......"

A deep sense of powerlessness suddenly surged into Zhou Zechen's heart.

He knew that what his sister said was right...... Grandfather, he won't let his sister out of the palace. Because right now, he still needs to use his sister to stabilize the hearts of the people in the palace and the hearts of ordinary people who don't know it......

The palace has just passed, and the current palace can no longer be chaotic. And the others, my grandfather couldn't believe them. Therefore, he can only use his sister, the emperor's most "favored" noble concubine during his lifetime, to let the world see how he treats the widow of the former emperor well.

His sister is destined to become this palace and a victim of this change of dynasty.

And he, but there is nothing he can do!
