"Mother, it's not the prince's fault, it's that they don't have the ability to get His Royal Highness's heart........."

Shuangshuang's eyes were moist and hot, and his heart was bitter and embarrassed, and he couldn't hold back his tears.

She secretly scolded herself for being too angry, obviously she had decided not to feel sorry for him anymore, how could others be full of grievances at the slightest mention of it.

She has only been in the palace for more than a month and is so weak and useless, which makes people see jokes, she was not like this before............

Concubine Xian saw the tears in her eyes, and her expression was a little meaningful.

As soon as the women in the harem cry, there are only two possibilities, either they are acting, or they are really useless.

She has been in the harem for so many years, and she has supported her son to become the prince, so she is naturally not an ordinary person. She is too familiar with the methods of harem women to compete for favor, and they can act better than the other.

It's just that today, whether she is acting or really cowardly and incompetent, Concubine Xian has no intention of caring about it.

She has only one purpose, and that is to borrow her hand to get rid of Xiaoshuang's.

Concubine Xian remained silent, and only asked quietly: "Do you like the prince?"

Shuangshuang raised his head in horror, his cheeks flushed with shame, and shook his head like a wave drum and hurriedly defended: "I don't ........."

As soon as the words came out, I felt that I had lost my words, so I quickly stopped my mouth.

"If you don't have a heart, you don't need to act here in this palace!"

Concubine Xian changed her gentle appearance, and her tone suddenly turned cold.

"No, the mother-in-law, the daughter-in-law didn't ......." Shuangshuang didn't know why Concubine Xian's face suddenly changed, and she wanted to explain in a panic, but she didn't know where to start, so she had to swallow the next words.

It's not that I don't like him, it's that he doesn't have me in his heart at all.........

There was a small voice in Shuangshuang's heart shouting injustice.

"You are the crown princess of the East Palace, but you can't compete with a lowly maid, it's really time to introspect. You haven't experienced the loneliness of the harem, the long nights are long, the misery is hard, if you don't want to be lonely in this palace for the rest of your life, you have to plan well. ”

It is not unreasonable for Concubine Xian to scold her like this.

In the deep palace full of dangers, if you have no scheming and don't know how to judge the situation, such a person will definitely not survive.

A petite figure conjured up in her mind, standing alone in the crooked corridor, bowing her head and sobbing.

The woman is the daughter of the family, and her appearance is captivating.

When she was fourteen years old, she caught up with the triennial draft in the palace, and her appearance, family background, and conduct were all good, and she was undoubtedly selected to enter the palace.

Just two months after entering the palace, the family was implicated because of party disputes, and all the families were wiped out.

Because she was already a show girl in the palace, she escaped by luck.

She was alone in the deep palace of intrigue, and was framed several times and almost died unjustly, but God took pity on her and finally let her live.

Thinking of the past, Concubine Xian closed her eyes tiredly, leaned back in the chair and slowly calmed down.

She really couldn't figure out what Lu Shuangshuang was wronging.

With such a good family behind the back, there is no need to fight for favor in order to survive, let alone worry about being implicated by the family and lingering, how comfortable and comfortable these days are, what else is there to complain about.

Concubine Xian's heart was more or less disappointed in Shuangshuang, the girl is a good girl, but the prince needs a strong relative, and he also needs a graceful and generous queen.

Although she was quite dissatisfied with Shuangshuang, she had to teach her patiently.

"Shuangshuang, you are married by the emperor, and you are the daughter of a century-old family, your extraordinary background is destined to make you not a thing in the pool, even if you don't want to fight, you can't help it. Don't forget, you are Lu Chexi's daughter, and you will still be the future queen in the future, don't make yourself pitiful and stay in that North Champs, like an abandoned concubine in the cold palace. ”

"Go back and think about it. The main palace is lacking. ”

didn't speculate for more than half a sentence, and Concubine Xian didn't bother to say more, so she waved her hand to Shuangshuang and asked her to step back.

They both got up and blessed her, and slowly exited the hall.

Concubine Xian still closed her eyes and recuperated, and her mind was actually the catastrophe twenty years ago.

The news that the Li family was exterminated reached the palace, and she was in a panic all day long, hiding alone in the corner of the imperial garden in the middle of the night and crying lowly, and the man came in the night.

He knew her, and he knew her.

The man looked at her coldly and said, "If I were you, I wouldn't be hiding here and crying." Crying is the most useless, you should use this opportunity to gain the mercy of the saint, the harem is your life-and-death Shura field, if you don't make a move today, tomorrow you will be the last soul of the Li family on the road. Do you want to die or live, I give you a chance to choose, you have a quarter of an hour to think about it, miss, and there is no next time. ”

After saying this, he really didn't leave, just stood there with his hands folded and waited.

She was completely dumbfounded, crouching on the ground looking at him with a pair of red and swollen eyes, motionless.

The autumn wind swept the corners of her skirt and blew up, blowing on the man's feet one by one, the man was still motionless, and the expression on his face was strange and indistinguishable.

This time, she has always been indecisive, did not hesitate for too long, and in less than a quarter of an hour, she reached out and grabbed the corner of the man's clothes and stood up weakly.

The man stretched out his hand to support her, and the corners of his mouth curved like the moon of that night.

One night, she became pregnant with his child.

The man told her: "I have investigated the case of the Li family's extermination, although it is because the new emperor has just ascended the throne, the foundation is unstable and the government is chaotic, and your Li family is innocent and wronged, but the unjust case has been cast, the wrong is wrong, the unjust has the head and the debtor, and now the enemy is in this palace, if you want to take revenge, go away, I will help you in secret." ”

She looked at the confidence and fiery eyes between his eyebrows, and felt that the coldness around her body had been dispelled.

In the days that followed, he taught her how to compete for favor in the back and taught her how to survive.

He told her how to use the emperor's favor to gain more power, and find out the murderer step by step; He taught her how to lie, how to act, how not to love, and how not to hate.

In the end, she got her wish, she became a ruthless woman, and she fell hopelessly in love with this man.

In the following years, she peeled off the cocoon and worked hard to finally investigate and deal with the murderer behind the scenes.

She never thought that the cause of the family's destruction was because of the harem competition for favor.

Her beauty and her agility make some people hold grudges, the new emperor is young and can't stand the wind blowing on the pillow all the time, and that woman just ruined her family overnight.

At this time, she is no longer the show girl who was in the hands of her predecessors, she has returned the way of others, and used the same method to destroy the enemy, and cut the woman who deceived her with a thousand knives.

Everything is like a mirror, her family, her best times, all of them can't come back.

The emperor still spoils her, for many years, but no matter how much she loves her, there are always more and more women in the palace, one is more delicate than the other.

She asked the man why he couldn't be single-minded. Why is there always a woman in the harem of the Son of Heaven?

Has the emperor ever loved someone?

The man was still smiling lightly: "Didn't I say that night, never ask such meaningless questions." ”

She hugged her son in her arms and wept silently.

Later, when the palace changed, the man she once loved stood in front of her in a dragon robe, smiling at her, so gentle and so hypocritical.

"Have you ever loved me?" Concubine Xian's eyes were covered with tears.

The man didn't answer, just put his arms around her and their son and gently patted her on the back.

Her tears fell on her son's pink face.

She shouldn't have fallen in love with him, with the ruthless emperor.

Walking alone in the cloister, the incense path in the middle of the road has been completed, and it seems lonely.

"The slave maid participates in the crown princess, the crown princess is blessed with Jin'an, and the mother has a good jade body recently?"

Shuangshuang was bowing her head and wandering too weakly, when an abrupt voice sounded behind her, startling her.

When she looked back, it was Zhou Shangfu from the Shangfu Bureau and a group of female officials kneeling on the ground, both holding lacquerware boxes with black backgrounds in their hands.

"It turned out to be Zhou Shangfu, hurry up. Where are you going? ”

Seeing the old man who met in the Lu Mansion, they both smiled slightly, and the haze in their hearts was temporarily swept away.

Zhou Shangfu used to live in Lufu, responsible for teaching her the rules of clothing, during the meticulous, loyal duty is very appreciated by her grandmother, after entering the palace, she has never made a little mistake in clothing, she can stand here well, and she also has her share of credit.

It's been almost half a year, and she didn't expect to see the old man here, and she was naturally excited.

"Back to the mother, the moon is coming, the queen mother gave some winter clothes and hairpin ornaments to the palace maidens, and the slaves and maids are going to the palaces of the maids."

Zhou Shangfu chuckled, and his face was also cordial.

"Shanggong Bureau Li Yun see the crown princess, Niangniang Wanfu Jin'an."

Shuangshuang was about to ask Zhou Shangfu about the current situation of other Shang Palaces, but before he could speak, he saw Ying Ying, a beautiful woman beside Zhou Shangfu, kneeling down and asking her for peace.

"Are you Li Shanggong? The golden seal flower hairpin sent by the Si Zhen Bureau last time was very exquisite, and you have a heart. ”

A while ago, the Sizhen Bureau sent a female official to the North Champs, holding a few pieces of jewelry for Shuangshuang to choose, saying that it was a monthly reward, and the masters of each palace had it, and since Shuangshuang was the master of the East Palace, it was naturally to be sent to the North Champs.

There are three kinds of jewelry, one is a four-butterfly silver step, a gold seal flower hairpin, and the other is a manta butterfly flower Tian.

The master can stay directly if he sees which, and the rest will be sent back to the Sizhen Bureau, and there are also favored concubines who are spoiled and take a few more things, and the queen will not ask if she is in the way of the emperor's face.

"The mother likes these jewelry, which is the blessing of this jewelry, and the slave does not dare to take credit. Niangniang didn't know, this was personally sent to you by His Royal Highness the Prince, saying that it was for the Crown Princess to choose first, if you like it, those jewelry can be left. It can be seen that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has his mother in mind. Li Shanggong covered his lips and chuckled, and there was unconcealed happiness in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
