But it was all in vain, for she would never wait for the king's response, and the meeting between the two from the beginning was a carefully planned plan. And the reason why the king chose her and blessed her, in the final analysis, was just to use her as a stand-in, a temperament very similar to that of Her Royal Highness the queen back then...... A small stand-in.

Whenever the ladies and daughters outside the palace hold a banquet and gather around to chat, when they mention Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine, they can't help but show envy. Although they didn't like this beautiful woman from humble background, the honor and favor bestowed by the king on the imperial concubine was enough to make them feel envious as women.

But who would have known that the king only regarded this favorite concubine as a pawn? Those so-called favors and honors are just to improve and modify this chess piece, otherwise how can they help Her Royal Highness the Queen balance the concubines in the harem? A chess piece is just a chess piece.

Even though this chess piece has its own emotions and is completely dedicated to the king, she is still a chess piece in the eyes of the king. The king is the supreme existence in the palace, he can enjoy these beautiful concubines as much as he wants, but he always loves Her Royal Highness in his heart.

The power that belongs to the emperor is always so unattainable, and there is cruelty and ruthlessness everywhere. The royal family's restraint on women is too cruel, but it gives men many special rights to the greatest extent, so that these beauties trapped in the quagmire can only fall in pain and continue to survive as appendages of the king.

Nan Zuisheng lowered his eyes and looked at the gilded jade bricks under his feet, these gorgeous and delicate jade bricks looked so beautiful and shining, but the people who stepped on them were far from being as stable and bright as a gilded jade brick: "The palace is about the most luxurious and cold place in this world. Everyone here looks so glamorous, but if you taste it carefully and observe, you will find that each of them is not very happy in life. ”

How can you be happy?

These imperial concubines sitting at the table are all beautiful women with outstanding appearances, and even Nan Zuisheng himself is tempted to look at them with gorgeous makeup and gorgeous clothes, even if she is a woman, but in the face of such a beautiful scenery in front of her, she will still feel amazing and tempted as a woman.

Everyone has a love for beauty, and the imperial concubines who come into view are all from good backgrounds, and can be canonized as the rank of the imperial concubine, their posture and bearing do not need to be described in words, when they sit together, they look at the Qiluo beads from afar, the jewels, and the beautiful and delicate faces are like the blooming cherry blossoms, such as smoke and glow, shining on the floating light of the whole palace.

But through the heavy makeup on that layer of face, Nan Zuisheng will always observe that faint trace of tiredness and boredom. Even though these imperial concubines live in the palace with brocade clothes and jade food, silk and satin, there is no shortage of food, jewelry and clothes, etc., but their inner world is empty.

Although with the change of times, they have a lot of electronic products to pass the boring time in the palace, but they can never leave the palace again to enjoy those prosperous scenery for the rest of their lives. As concubines, they are different from Her Royal Highness the Empress, and their personal freedom is firmly bound in the palace, because they are only accessories.

One was sent to the palace by the family and became favored by the emperor once in a while...... It's just an accessory.

The blue stem rice bird's nest porridge in the white jade bowl was already cold, like half a bowl of stagnant jade crystal paste, Nan Fusheng gently moved the white jade bowl away from Nan Zuisheng's face, and slowly poured a mild fruit wine: "You can't have both fish and bear paws, they have already obtained a noble grade and a luxurious life, so as a price, they can no longer enjoy freedom." ”

At the end, he paused, obviously there was still a lot of things he wanted to tell Nan Zuisheng in his heart, but when he thought of those that sounded too cruel and ruthless for the girl, Nan Fusheng silently changed the topic and looked at the dancing girl in the palace: "But then again, calculate the time, it's time for this Li Imperial Concubine to be unlucky." ”

"Well, although the time for the king to snub her is not long or short, it is enough to cause a lot of pressure on the psychology of Princess Li." Nan Zuisheng looked at the lone Imperial Concubine Li in the hall, and saw that in the wide area on the ninth-level gilded jade steps, in addition to the dancing court dancers, there was only the lonely figure of the Imperial Concubine Li.

The crimson palace dress embroidered with peony flowers was extremely beautiful and complicated, she stared at the gorgeous palace dress of the Imperial Concubine Li, and her words revealed an interesting emotion: "Brother, what method do you think the king of the Sakura Kingdom will use to establish his authority for Her Royal Highness?" After all, what Concubine Li did was enough to implicate the entire family, you know, it was a crime of trespassing. ”

When he said the word 'transgression', Nan Zuisheng deliberately put his voice very lightly and softly, and when it fell into Nan Fusheng's ears, it was also ethereal. Her gaze lingered for a long time on the red gold Nine Treasures and Phoenix Feathers worn around the neck of Empress Li, and her red lips slightly hooked a sarcastic smile.

"For Her Royal Highness the Queen?" Nan Fusheng frowned slightly when he heard this, and said with some disapproval: "I personally think that it is part of the prestige of Her Royal Highness the Queen, but more, the king wants to use this matter to beat the increasingly powerful Princess Li's family." ”

At this point, Nan Fusheng lowered his eyes and looked at the world under the ninth-level gilded jade steps, only to see that among the nobles sitting in the middle of the banquet, more than a dozen nobles with nervous expressions were quietly looking at the king, there was no doubt that these people were the family relatives of Emperor Li, who were worried about Princess Li, who was left out by the king alone, and even more worried about their own future and future.

The arrogant posture that was domineering before is gone at this moment. Looking at the appearance of the dozen or so nobles in brocade clothes who were sitting still, and the expressions of extremely humble and secretly looking at the attitude of the king, Nan Fusheng couldn't help but sneer.

When the enemy could no longer maintain even a calm and elegant posture, then this plan was already doomed to victory, and Princess Li and her family were also doomed to failure. Even if they don't know that this court feast is nothing more than a grand feast with hidden conspiracy, as participants, they have long lost the right to refuse and say 'no'.

As a caught mouse, how can you say no to a cat? They never had that qualification. Compared with the relatives of the Li Imperial Concubine family, the rest of the famous families are drinking and having fun calmly, and they are not as arrogant as those in the Li Imperial Concubine family.

If you want to live long in the hands of the king, and live a glorious life, you must learn to restrain your edge and show weakness at the right time to show your loyalty. If all of them were as arrogant as the family relatives of Emperor Li, then these famous families would have been gradually weakened and hollowed out by the king, until they were finally annihilated.

In the Sakura Kingdom, which is ruled by the imperial power, the imperial power is supreme.

No matter how good the children of the famous family are, no matter how deep the family heritage is, in the face of absolute imperial rule, those are all in vain. After all, there are countless outstanding sons and daughters of the royal family, and the royal family holds most of the power in the country, and most of the lifeblood of the domestic family.

Famous families will invariably maintain a delicate balance between each other, not too brilliant, not too weak, on the contrary, they are very balanced with each other, and mutually restrictive. Although this balance seems to be a little more humble in existence, in the eyes of the king, only by continuing to maintain this situation will he bestow some glorious honor on these families.

Otherwise, if they are all as high-flying and dazzling as the family relatives of Princess Li, then the king will patiently hibernate and weaken the power of the famous family bit by bit, and then weaken to a situation that is enough to swallow up, and the king will destroy these too dazzling families with lightning speed.

After the process of devouring and destroying is over, the king will support the weak family to become a new generation of famous families, and the way of the king is to give grace and power. After the weak family becomes a new generation of famous families, they will naturally be loyal to the royal family, and even if they are not loyal to the royal family, they still have to learn to restrain their edges and do things for the royal family.

After all, I believe that all the families in Sakura will understand the truth of the lessons learned from the past.

The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind. The king and the royal family are always the last yellow finches to hunt, and the praying mantis and cicadas are just famous families and weak families fighting each other, fighting each other. If the mantis that has swallowed up the cicada grows stronger, the yellow finch will not hesitate to hunt and end the life of the mantis.

The three are interdependent, but in the end it is always the yellow finch that benefits, the praying mantis is just a container used by the yellow finch to store nutrients, when these praying mantis gradually grow and become delicious and attractive prey, the yellow finch will consider eating some, leaving some that is still safe to continue to devour, as a container for storing nutrients, or an obedient puppet.

The handsome and innocent face was soaked in the crystal lampshade, Nan Fusheng stared at the powerful ministers and nobles for a moment, and then looked thoughtfully at the gorgeously crowned king: "In fact, in the final analysis, it doesn't matter whether he will stand up for Her Royal Highness the Queen, what matters is whether the king can get what he wants from today's palace feast, or see the results he wants." ”

Speaking of this, Nan Fusheng hooked his lips and smiled, his deep phoenix eyes clearly reflected Nan Zuisheng's face, his charm was as low and sultry as his voice, which instantly made Nan Zuisheng's cheeks red: "Do you understand? Baby. "It's just six words, but Nan Fusheng exudes an extremely elegant, but extremely charming temptation.

“…… I see. Nan Zuisheng lowered his thick eyelashes in a little panic, and the fan-shaped shadows were on his eyelids, and his already natural and national face was dyed a pale peach because of his shyness, which became more and more beautiful and amazing.

Nan Fusheng knew how beautiful his baby was, but he had to admit that the girl in the shyness was even more beautiful, that kind of beauty was extremely pure but extremely dazzling, obviously looking so beautiful and flawless, but it revealed a charming flow that made him feel hot in the blood all over his body.

Quietly covering up somewhere that was almost standing up, Nan Fusheng coughed lightly and looked away at the rest of the hall. If he continued to stare at his little baby, he didn't dare to guarantee that he would not do something inferior to a beast, after all, Nan Zuisheng was no less addictive and intoxicating to him than a poppy.
