The commander-in-chief is handsome and charming

The year I came of age, my father and mother looked for a young man from a noble family in the Southern Qi Dynasty for me.

Just wait until the selection is over and then get married with peace of mind.

However, I was unable to leave the palace.

When the imperial edict was received, the entire Lin family fell silent.

This overwhelming wealth is not a good thing for our Lin family.

My father and brothers looked at me with concern.

The mother's eyes turned red.

Your Majesty is almost old enough to be my father.

The imperial edict was placed on the case in the hall.

My father had a sullen face and said nothing.

The impatient second brother stood up and said, "Dad, why don't we just give it to my sister..."

"Nonsense!" As soon as he said this, his father understood what he meant.

Just choose a husband for me and get married.

Those who may participate in the draft are all registered with the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

There is no marriage!

Moreover, the imperial edict is below.

There is no way my Lin family can resist.

My father was only a third-rank official, and among my brothers, only my eldest brother had just entered the court.

My second brother will take the imperial examination this year at the earliest, but it is still unknown whether he can become an official.

I sat next to my mother with red eyes.

She stirred the handkerchief in her hand and spoke through gritted teeth, "Father, my daughter is entering the palace!"

Since you can't escape, then enter the palace.

You can't sacrifice the entire Lin family just for me.

Your Majesty probably does like me a little.

An old eunuch who was personally with him was sent with people to pick him up, using the sedan chair that His Majesty used daily.

My brothers rode their horses to escort me all the way to the palace gate.

It wasn't until the vermilion door was completely closed that I couldn't help but look back.

This palace wall...

I’m afraid I’ll never be able to get out again.

On the night of receiving the grace, I huddled in His Majesty's arms.

Try your best to show your obedience.

In return, his position was directly raised the next day.

There are also rewards that come like flowing water.

Of course, there was also sarcasm and disdain from the elders in the palace.

But I finally gained a foothold in the palace.

And because he tried hard to please His Majesty, his position was promoted again and again.

After the second brother successfully entered the court, the third brother also passed the imperial examination and became the third place.

My Lin family has finally had a chance to show off.

The former dynasty and the harem have always been related.

After my third brother was chosen as the third place in the imperial examination, I was directly appointed as a royal concubine within a month.

This had never happened before in the history of Southern Qi.

After all, I'm not that old.

Moreover, he has no children.

Fortunately, your Majesty's temper has become increasingly irritable in recent years.

The court officials did not dare to disobey the decision too much.

In addition, she was a childless concubine.

It's just a name and can't cause much trouble.

No matter which prince ascends the throne in the future, I will just be a concubine.

Then he died of old age in the palace.

I also thought that this was probably how my life would be.

Until Cui Xiang arrived in Southern Qi.

I accompanied His Majesty to the dinner that day.

The young man bowing on the steps was probably not much younger than me.

He looks just like my cousin who has always been smiling since he was a child.

Later, I heard this name frequently.

My mother came to the palace to tell me that there is a royal doctor in Dongling...

When I heard it, my heart skipped a beat.

Imperial Physician,

Gynecological expert!

The heart that has been silent for many years finally comes alive again.

Relying on the confidants he has cultivated in the palace over the years.

I finally ventured out of the palace in a hurry.

And leaving the palace this time was undoubtedly wise.

When Doctor Ge entered the palace, I pretended to be calm, but my hands were shaking slightly with nervousness.

Wait until he tells me that there is hope for a child.

I could hardly sleep that night.

If I give birth to a son or daughter, then there will still be hope.

The Lin family also has hope.

Next, I became even more devoted to Your Majesty.

Although His Majesty seems to be fine these years.

But no one knows better than me that his health is getting worse day by day.

I am also unable to do some things.

So I had to use what Doctor Ge gave me.

until……

I'm pregnant.

After more than a month of strict precautions, the news was finally discovered when someone was checking Ping An's pulse.

His Majesty is very pleased.

Naturally, he stayed in my palace at night.

He assured me over and over again with a smile, his eyes almost fixed on my belly.

"This is my youngest child."

"Whether it's a princess or a prince, I will definitely have someone take good care of them."

"In the future..."

"When the new emperor ascends the throne in the future, he will treat you and your son well."

He seemed certain that there would be a prince in my belly.

But it also shows that this child has no hope of succeeding to the throne.

But he will grow up in peace and prosperity.

Yes.

Your Majesty is indeed old, and this child came at the right time.

No matter how the princes of the previous dynasty fight, it will not affect us, mother and son.

Who would care about an unborn child?

Only the eldest prince.

After he left court, he met me by chance in the Imperial Garden.

Although he was older than me, he stood far away and saluted respectfully.

The clear voice called out "Mother Concubine Lin."

He seemed to have just met me by chance, and there was some deep meaning in his eyes.

Our eyes met and he glanced casually over my abdomen.

Then he smiled gently at me.

"I want to talk to you alone for a few words."

After hesitating for a moment, I waved to the people around me.

People moved away a little bit.

We were standing on this garden path, and he said something that shocked me greatly.

He said he would protect his younger brother until he was born safely.

Will support us mother and son to that high position.

It is one thing to know about this matter, but it is another thing to be brought up.

I subconsciously protected my abdomen with my hands, not knowing whether I should believe what he said.

Then he said that he, Ling Yun and Cui Xiang had reached a consensus.

If anything unexpected happens in the future, his people will escort me out of the palace.

Let me not resist or worry.

This conversation gave me a deeper understanding of this prince.

He seems to...

It’s not quite the same as rumored.

It’s not quite the same as what Your Majesty said.

The fight intensified.

Almost all forces began to work towards this palace.

And I gave birth smoothly.

Gave birth to the youngest prince of Southern Qi.

But I haven't recovered from the shock yet.

Xu Shaoxun sent another message.

and so……

His Majesty has passed away!

The news spread throughout the palace almost instantly.

I stood in the imperial garden and turned to look at my son who was held in the arms of a maid.

Listening to the sudden ringing of the bell.

Thinking about the years I wasted in the palace.

Suddenly, I felt sad.

"Your Majesty!" His body went limp, and he stumbled back after getting up.

Since I have been a favorite concubine for so many years.

At the last moment, of course, she also has to look like a favored concubine.

I cried my heart out in front of your Majesty's spirit.

Xu Shaoxun asked someone to help the man up and then bowed respectfully.

The imperial edict was held in his hand.

The son I gave birth to with great difficulty became the new emperor of Southern Qi.

And I became the empress dowager at a young age.

When my father and brother arrived, they looked at everything in front of them in shock.

His eyes were full of disbelief and hesitation.

Only when everyone around them knelt on the ground did my father and brothers follow suit.

My Lin family...

The most glorious moment has arrived.
