By the evening, the sun had completely set.

Night gradually enveloped the capital of Dajin.

The candlelight from the glass lamp dispelled the darkness and illuminated the room.

Outside the window, the rain began to fall, soaking the yellow autumn leaves and hitting the banana trees in the courtyard, making crisp sounds.

Sima Yue left the desk, hugged the book, lay down on the bed, and began to read with his chin in his hand.

Her white skirt was scattered on the brocade quilt, and she had taken off her embroidered shoes. Her two slender white legs were dangling in the air.

The name of this book is "Self-cultivation of a Concubine".

The author of the book is a girl from a humble family with no power or influence in her family. However, her parents are vain and marry her to a young man from a rich and powerful family as a concubine.

It can be said that the author of this book has no other advantages except his appearance.

However, such concubines who come from humble families and only have beauty often have a miserable fate when they marry into wealthy families.

When you are young, you can still rely on your looks to survive. But when you are old and ugly, you will have nothing.

What the rich and powerful nobles have the most in their backyards is beautiful concubines. Without some skills, it would be difficult for a man to compete with other beautiful concubines when he is young.

But the author of this book eventually gained the favor of her husband, and even lived in peace with her mistress, who came from a noble family. They treated each other as sisters, made decisions together, and controlled the harem together.

She is a role model for all concubines.

"I wrote this book to help every sister who has the same experience as me have the opportunity to be loved by her husband and survive in the backyard of a wealthy family like me."

"These are some of my personal experiences, which I compiled into a book called "Self-cultivation of a Concubine."

"Please remember what I say next."

The above is the introduction.

Then comes the main text of the book.

The book is divided into nine chapters.

respectively.

The appearance of a favorite concubine.

The makeup technique for a concubine.

The fashion taste of a favorite concubine.

The manners of a concubine.

The body of a concubine.

The talent of a favored concubine.

The emotional intelligence of a concubine.

Life skills for a concubine.

The art of sex for a concubine.

There is still a lot of content.

"First of all, appearance."

"I divide women's appearance into four categories: A, B, C, and D. Each category is divided into upper, middle, and lower."

"This book is recommended for sisters whose appearance is at least Ogami."

The reality is so cruel.

If one does not have an extraordinary appearance, there is basically no possibility of becoming a concubine.

Sima Yue held her chin with her hand, her calves swinging in the air. She estimated that her appearance should at least be better than that of an average person.

Otherwise, when she was in her prime, Su An must have been blind to fall in love with her.

The first chapter introduces the types of women's appearance, such as pure, charming, cool, pretty, cute, etc., and explains the unique advantages of each facial feature.

What does your appearance type mean?

According to the description in the book, it seems to be classified as...

Pure?

After introducing each type of women's appearance, the author of this book begins to teach readers how to make good use of their own appearance advantages.

For example, for a woman with a pure and lovely appearance, what should she do to complement her appearance?

"First, your words and actions should be natural, without being too cautious or artificial."

"Secondly, be lenient to the servants in the mansion. You can show a friendly attitude appropriately, but you don't have to lower your status and be too close to them. Treat the mistress and other concubines with a friendly and generous attitude, and don't be too jealous."

"Third, don't be too fussy. Think more about how to retreat in order to advance. Don't be aggressive or harsh. Show your soft side in front of your husband when appropriate."

"For sisters with innocent and lovely looks, the key to maintaining charm is to arouse the husband's yearning for the innocence of women and his desire to protect you."

After reading it, Sima Yue suddenly felt as if something had suddenly dawned on her mind.

It does make sense.

As for women with other types of appearance and how to make the most of their looks, Sima Yue did not bother to look at them.

At the end of the first chapter, the author of the book also included a proverb.

"Sisters, if you can gain the favor of your husband, even to the point of overshadowing your mistress, remember not to rush to favor a concubine and destroy the wife."

"Since ancient times, being able to favor a concubine and kill a wife without being held accountable in the future is as difficult and dangerous as a monk climbing a mountain."

"If the mistress is not a jealous, sinister, or difficult person to get along with, you sisters can rely on her or work with her."

Seeing this, Sima Yue nodded in agreement.

Often the identity and status of a concubine is so different from that of the mistress that it is like a natural chasm.

Just like Sima Yue's biological mother,

When she was young, Aunt Zhang gained the favor of Prince of Runan by various means, and even made Prince of Runan neglect Princess of Runan for a time.

If she had known what was going on at this time and chosen to show her goodwill to the Princess of Runan, instead of confronting her head-on and trying to favor her concubine over her wife, she would have been in a better position.

Given Princess Runan's personality, she would not deliberately target Aunt Zhang.

How could he have fallen to this point, being despised by the Prince of Runan and suppressed by the Princess of Runan?

Sima Yue compared his current conditions with those of Zhou Qingyu.

Hiss, it seems the gap is a bit big.

Family background, status, cultivation talent and even the degree of Su An's love for him.

Zhou Qingyu beat her up in every aspect.

Not to mention that Wang Shishi is here.

She will definitely work together with Zhou Qingyu and advance and retreat together.

There was no way she could win the fight, and Sima Yue had no intention of taking any further steps as a concubine.

I just hope that my dear sister Qingyu can be a kind-hearted lady and not target me, a poor and helpless concubine, in the future.

But thinking about what he had done in the past and the conflicts with Zhou Qingyu.

"Ugh."

Sima Yue sighed sadly.

It's a difficult thing. If it weren't for her, Zhou Qingyu wouldn't have been slapped.

Moreover, as Su An's first generation princess, it is difficult for Zhou Qingyu, as the second generation, to have a good impression of her.

The book "Self-cultivation of a Concubine" is divided into nine chapters.

Although "The Art of Sex" is the last chapter, it did not prevent Sima Yue from being attracted by these words when he searched the catalog for the first time.

Then his face turned yellow because of the content.

Hence the attempts outside the house just now.

The idea of ​​body management was just an excuse. I just wanted to see if I could do the poses in the books...

The author of the book obviously put a lot of thought into those indecent paintings in the chapters on the art of sex.

The male protagonist’s face is blurred so his figure and face cannot be seen clearly. This is probably to make it easier for the sisters who come later to automatically substitute their loved ones into the role.

After reading the first chapter, Sima Yue flipped through a few pages of this last chapter.

He quickly closed the book.

I can’t take it anymore. It’s late at night. If I keep watching this, I’m going to have a nosebleed.

Sima Yue simply turned to the last page of the book.

At the end of the book, the author attached a blessing.

"Sister, this book is all based on my experience. Keep my teachings in mind and practice them. I believe you can become a qualified concubine, gain the love of your husband, and live in peace with your mistress."

Although he had only read the first and last chapters and did not know the specific identity of the author of the book, Sima Yue could see that she was quite knowledgeable and what she said made sense.

It was worth the effort she put into finding this book.

The author of the book strongly disapproves of favoring concubines and killing wives, and believes that this is an evil way.

It just so happens that Sima Yue's goal is to regain Su An's love as much as possible and live in peace with Zhou Qingyu.

Now that you have finished reading the first chapter, let’s start by learning how to put on makeup.

Come on, you will be the next concubine.

Sima Yue lay on the bed, clenched his fists, and raised them hard in front of his chest.

Then, thinking that Xiaolian and Xiaohe would come back, Sima Yue put the book into the storage device.

Soon, two people entered the house.

Because the book "Self-cultivation of a Concubine" has a chapter about women's body.

In most cases, women with a plump and voluptuous figure have more advantages than women with average figures.

When Xiaolian and Xiaohe entered the room, Sima Yue paid special attention to their figures.

The former is of average talent, but the latter...

It's spectacular!

Sima Yue looked at his own again. Although it was not ordinary, it was obviously far from Xiao He's, who could see mountains as peaks when viewed from the front and the back.

"Xiao He, tell me, do you have any secret?"

Sima Yue took Xiao He's hand, led her to sit beside the bed, and looked at her with burning eyes.

Noticing the direction of Sima Yue's gaze, Xiao He immediately understood what she meant. Her pretty face blushed and she turned her head away somewhat embarrassedly.

"Miss, I don't know why..."

Xiaolian was sitting at the mahogany round table. As she opened the lunch box and took out the food, she took over the conversation and said, "Miss, Xiaohe is just gifted. I haven't seen her eat anything or do anything since she was a child. They just grew up naturally."

"That's it."

Sima Yue looked regretful.

"but……"

Xiaolian hesitated for a moment and whispered in Sima Yue's ear.

"Miss, I heard that if a man massages it more or gives birth to a child, that thing will naturally grow bigger."

Want men to rub more and have children?!

Sima Yue now doesn't even dare to meet Su An, for fear that Sima Yu will find out, let alone ask her to meet the above conditions.

She had no choice but to give up the idea.

But think about it this way.

It seemed that apart from the hug between her and Su An on their wedding night, she had never had any other intimate actions.

I’ve been married once, but my first kiss is still there.

I am such a failed woman.

Sima Yue sighed in his heart.

After dinner, Sima Yue went to Sima Yu's room to practice.

Although Sima Yu told her that there was no need to practice so hard and she didn't need to come today.

But personality cannot be changed easily.

Sima Yu was suspicious by nature and was very sensitive to emotions.

Sima Yue had to be careful when facing her.

The harder she practiced, the less likely Sima Yu would become suspicious.

……

The next day, Sima Yue, who had practiced all night, returned to his room.

Although due to the special physical condition, he had experienced a night of nourishment from the evil spirit.

Sima Yue was not physically tired or uncomfortable, but mentally she was filled with exhaustion.

But this kind of mental fatigue is not so easy to relieve.

Ask Xiaohe and Xiaolian to get breakfast for you.

Sima Yue was the only one left in the room.

There's no one around, this is a good opportunity.

Sima Yue closed the doors and windows tightly.

Then she went to the desk and began to write in her diary.

"Just a few days ago, I made a desperate leap at the end of my rope and successfully awakened the remaining pity in Su An's heart for me."

"He really still has feelings for me, even if they're not many."

“So I got a promise from him.”

"I have always dreamed of returning to him one day, and now I finally see hope."

"The days are starting to become more hopeful, not as bleak as before."

"But it's not easy to do what Su An said."

"The first thing is to find a way to hide it from Sima Yu."

"I obviously don't want to work hard on my training now. I just want to lie on my bed every day and sleep until I wake up naturally in the morning."

"But in order to prevent her from getting suspicious, I had to keep practicing as hard as before, or even harder."

"I'm so tired~"

“You have to do this.”

"Sima Yu, this old woman who is over a thousand years old... oh no, it's an old female ghost..."

"She's too smart. If you don't pay attention, she might find something."

……

"I miss Su An a little bit."

"I don't have any other thoughts. It's nice to see him and talk to him."

"I really want to find an opportunity to sneak out of the palace to see him, but it's too risky. It's not even safe to write to him."

"At this stage, I have to be very careful, very cautious, and any small thing could lead to failure."

……

"But such days are a bit hard to bear. I can't even tell Xiaolian and Xiaohe about these things. I can only keep them in my heart."

"I have no one to talk to, so I can only write in my diary. If I don't find a way to express myself, I'm afraid I'll go crazy..."

"Although the days are a bit difficult, there is always hope. For the final victory, I must hold on now."

“It’s like watering a flower carefully.”

"I believe that there will always be a day when the flowers will bloom."

“And now,

Just wait..."

Finally, Sima Yue wrote the date at the end of the diary.

"Da Jin calendar, the 42nd year of Wuning, November 7th."

After finishing writing, Sima Yue put the diary into the storage magic tool.

She planned to keep this diary secret and use it only for recording and entertainment, not revealing it to anyone.

Even if she died one day, Sima Yue would take this diary to the underworld.
