I miss Hongwu 28 years ago.
At that time, I hadn't married into the Yanwang Mansion, and at that time, I could often see Ji Gang.
However, fate is determined by heaven, not by man. In the autumn of that year, I married King Yan as a concubine, everything changed, and when I entered the palace of King Yan, I changed from lively and smiling to an innocent, youthful, beautiful and gentle woman.
The mother said, smiling without showing teeth, when talking to men, with ignorant eyes open, hanging their heads and smiling gently, they can make their hearts pound even more.
In my memory, my father has always loved my mother, so of course she is right.
As for why it is that the one who loves one person and marries and has children with him is another person? Don't ask me this question, ask my parents.
The life of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, the woman born in this era, which one can control the fate of herself!
I still remember that the cicada chirping was particularly noisy that year, and every year as long as the golden wind was together, the cicada chirping would be noisy day by day, and what was even louder than the cicada whine was my heart.
Whether you like it or not, marry your husband, from now on, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, will be my God.
However, I never even saw him on the night I got married.
It is said that King Yan and the princess have a deep relationship, and the warblers and Yanyan in the house are just decorations, after all, as a prince, if there is only one princess in the palace, it will inevitably be desolate.
If he doesn't come, it's okay, except for the morning and dusk in front of the princess on the specified days, I can do embroidery work in my own courtyard, anyway, there is Guiqiu to accompany me, and the other women in the Yanwang Mansion are also as lonely as me.
People are like this, even if they fall into the mud, as long as they are not the only unlucky ghosts, they feel that they can still live their lives.
Resentment? Of course I have a grudge, marry into the house to give a name and throw it aside, when we are angry decorations? King Yan has a deep affection for his princess, what about us? Could it be that we weren't raised by our parents?
But this grievance, I will only put it in my heart, before getting married, my mother repeatedly explained that men like gentle and demure women, and they must not be as willful as at home.
Okay, demure and gentle, respectful, I'm not, but I can pretend, who can't act, among the women in ten miles and eight towns, no one is as good as mine.
Because I have a mother who is the best at acting, she has different looks in front of different people, playing small, I am used to seeing and seeing familiar things, and at this time, I am familiar with the road.
It's just that after pretending for a long time, even I have the illusion that Wang Yuerong, who loved to smile and raise her eyebrows in the past, is another strange woman.
On that day, on the way back to greet the princess, I finally saw King Yan.
He was majestic and mighty, with dragon eyes and tiger steps, and he looked not angry but mighty, and when he saw me, he stared at me for a long time, and praised me for being a good life.
I knew in my heart that if it weren't for the princess's pregnancy, he wouldn't have had time to see us.
No matter how affectionate he is, he is also a man, and during the ten months that the princess cannot sleep, he needs other concubines to meet his needs.
When I returned to the courtyard, I talked to another concubine of King Yan, Concubine Liu, "King Yan asked me to meet tomorrow in the Feihua Pavilion. โ
After all, among the concubines and servants, whoever can win the favor of King Yan first will be superior. Besides, Concubine Liu is a good sister I have met since I entered the Yanwang Mansion. Not to mention her beauty, she is also steady and quiet, and she is a well-known kind-hearted person in the house.
Not long after I entered the house, I had an illness, and it was she who asked for warmth and told the princess that she had invited me to the imperial doctor in the palace, which made me get better quickly.
I won't hide it from her, and I also showed her the jade pendant that King Yan gave me.
With a little pride, with a little publicity. A prince did not go directly to the house to pamper his concubines, but to make some love tricks, which was obviously because he was in love, so he was willing to flirt.
Unfortunately, by the end of the night I had a rash on my face. Concubine Liu asked the princess to ask the imperial doctor to come and see me, saying that it was an epidemic, and she locked me in the hospital and confined me for treatment, so as not to infect others.
Except for the personal maid Dang Guiqiu, the rest of the people were all sent out.
Feihua Pavilion naturally can't go, but fortunately, Liu Concubine took the jade pendant under my pleading, and brought back a message from King Yan to me, saying: Good life and recuperation, the future will be long.
I feel so happy, in order to marry into the Yanwang Mansion, there can still be such a good sister, and I am even thinking about whether to tell her about the past with Ji Gang. The tormenting lovesickness, which can't find anyone to talk to, is really terrible.
However, my illness never got better, and gradually Concubine Liu stopped coming, and I was alone in the house, always having some nightmares of dying alone.
It was during that time that I noticed Dang Guiqiu, my dowry maid. In the midst of the tribulation, he began to be like a sister to her, made an appointment with her, took care of each other, promised her, and if he had a bright future, he would choose a good son-in-law for her, get rid of slavery, and marry beautifully.
I married Jin Lan with a maid because at that time in my heart, I thought that there would be no day when I would definitely die of illness in that hospital. In order for her to take care of me more dedicatedly, of course, I have to give her some benefits.
Of course, at that time, I also secretly swore in my heart that if the illness could get better, I would definitely reward Guiqiu after I went out. As a maid, the surname is not remembered, so I always call her Guiqiu, Guiqiu.
Fortunately, the doctor was kind-hearted and never gave up on my diagnosis and treatment, and after more than ten days, the rash on my body finally subsided and I was released from the hospital, and the other people who were waiting for me also came back one after another.
But I didn't see Concubine Liu come to congratulate me on my recovery, and when I asked, I learned that she had become King Yan's most favored concubine, and the princess's left and right hands were very busy, so they didn't care to come to see me.
I didn't expect Concubine Liu to have such a good thing in a short period of time, I was a little jealous, but I was also happy for her, and hurriedly ran to her yard to congratulate her. I still remember that day when I went to her courtyard, I saw many more beautiful and delicate things, and I looked like hers, with bright brocade clothes and beautiful eyebrows.
Sure enough, as my mother said, a woman needs a man to be hurt before she can bloom.
I stopped the maid who was about to tell the news, and snuck into her house to surprise her.
Seeing that she was dressing up in the mirror, she called out happily: "Sister Liu, I'm fine, come to see you!" โ
Who knew that she turned around, but she looked surprised, and then suddenly picked up the golden hairpin she was about to wear, slashed it on her arm, and shouted: "Someone-"
I was dumbfounded.
Soon a fierce mother-in-law ran in and escorted me, and Concubine Liu pointed at me and shouted: "She is crazy, she came in with a hairpin and said that she wanted to kill me, and she went out!" โ
Her maid also said that as soon as I entered, I made a lot of noise and snatched a hairpin, which would be unfavorable to her master.
When the princess learned about it, she ordered her mother-in-law to drag me to the torture chamber and reprimand.
The wooden planks fell mercilessly, and I thought it was all a nightmare, but the pain that hurt my bone reminded me that this was not a dream, but an absurd but bloody reality.
The sentence was twenty rods, and after ten rods I fainted.
Then, when I woke up again, I had already returned to my courtyard, and it turned out that Gui Qiu had gone to beg the princess, and the unfinished ten rods were written down first.
"The master was deceived by Concubine Liu." Guiqiu's words made me wake up like a dream.
It turned out that the rash on my face was caused by the person who was waiting for me by Concubine Liu, who put some juice on my face while I was asleep.
She took the jade pendant given to me by King Yan to the Flying Flower Pavilion for an appointment, and also won the favor of King Yan on my behalf.
It was as if a knife had been inserted into my heart, and drops of blood flowed down. It turns out that everything is fake, and the so-called good sisters are just fools who are used to step on the ladder of the upper position and use it to borrow and betray it.
Gui Qiu comforted me on the side and persuaded me to cheer up and take revenge on my blood hatred.
She asked me to look in the mirror, and the person in the mirror became more and more pitiful and beautiful because of the crying.
"Master, since King Yan took a fancy to you that day, it means that the prince prefers you like this, even if she Liu Concubine is on the throne for a while, it is impossible for the prince to favor the prince for a long time."
Gui Qiu's words are half right, the prince does like me like this, but this kind of liking is fresh.
Liu Concubine is also his freshness, he is determined to be in the country, except for the princess who shares his weal and woe with him and is unparalleled, everyone else is just floating clouds.
I have already lost a chance, so I am thinking, how to have another chance, so that my floating cloud can stay in front of the prince for a longer time.
Because I was busy with my position, I didn't have much time to think about Ji Gang.
After careful observation, I found that in fact, in the inner house, the princess has more control over our destiny than the prince.
As a result, I became more and more respectful in front of the princess, indifferent everywhere, and always humble. Like the concubines of the past, be kind to others.
After Concubine Liu became a favorite concubine, she didn't pay much attention to the sisters who used to have the same fate as her, and I just took over, and I did better than her.
Moreover, when I was fighting for favor in the back house, I avoided it, and others naturally thought that I didn't have the heart to fight with them, and the princess felt that I was honest and reliable, and I was a person, and gradually, I also asked me to help deal with some miscellaneous things.
This has won a good reputation.
Gui Qiu was responsible for making friends with his subordinates and quietly inquiring about King Yan's preferences.
Another year, when the scenery of the Flying Flower Pavilion is just right.
I danced with the wind in the pavilion with a streamer.
King Yan walked past the pavilion and saw me thoughtfully.
The clothes on my body and the flowers on my head are all old things from last year, and even if he can't remember them, he will feel a little familiar.
What's more, I still danced like a weak wind blowing willows, graceful and colorful.
When I saw him, I was surprised and delighted, but I endured it, knelt down to say goodbye, and then turned around to leave.
He stopped me, and I turned around, but I was already crying with pear blossoms and rain, which was very bright.
Most people look good when they smile, but unlike me, when I cry, I can add three points to my posture.
I learned from my mother how to cry beautifully.
He helped me up and wiped the tears from my face: "Why do you cry like this when you see this king?" โ
He knew I was his concubine, but he couldn't remember my name.
I burst into tears and laughed, looking at his gaze, with a little infatuation in shyness, "The concubine is happy to be able to meet the prince again today." Last year today, the concubine had an appointment with the prince, but she was unable to see the prince due to illness, but she didn't expect to be able to see the prince again on the same day this year, as if she had made an appointment, she was naturally happy. โ
That night, he asked me to hold the lamp in my courtyard by name.
