The imperial concubine bows down to me

"Your Highness, I'm not as miserable as you think." With that said, Liu Shuyan let go of Shen Zhi.Shen Zhi took the opportunity to turn over, lifted the quilt, rolled to the edge of the bed and stood up.

Feeling her movement, Liu Shuyan also sat up, put the quilt on his body, and said softly: "Your Highness, don't light the lamp, come and sit down, I will tell you something."

Shen Zhi stepped on the shoe surface and felt a little cold.She was at a loss at first, but when she heard Liu Shuyan's words, she leaned over dubiously and climbed onto the bed again.

It's just that this time she sat on the other side of the bed, farther away from Liu Shuyan.Liu Shuyan's sudden change made Shen Zhi extremely uncomfortable. Out of the instinct to protect himself, although Liu Shuyan said that he would not harm her, Shen Zhi still couldn't let go of his guard against her.

Regarding Shen Zhi's actions, Liu Shuyan didn't say much, she just smiled helplessly, changed her posture to face Shen Zhi, tightened the quilt on her body, and said: "Your Highness is still too young now. Now, do you know that everything you see now is only one-sided? In fact, in this world, especially in this deep palace, many things are deceptive, and even what you see is not necessarily true."

Shen Zhi couldn't see Liu Shuyan's expression clearly, couldn't figure out what she was thinking at this moment, and didn't dare to agree casually.Hearing this, she just lowered her eyes slightly, thought carefully, and made no unnecessary movements.

After a long time without Shen Zhi's response, Liu Shuyan knew that she still refused to believe him, so he said again: "I am your father's junior sister, and also your mother's old friend. Do you know that your father has a peach blossom-like mark on his chest? "

"I have it too," Liu Shuyan finally said after a long silence, "If His Highness wants to watch it, you can watch it too."

Speaking of the peach blossom seal on Shen Tianhe's chest, Shen Zhi had seen it in summer when she was young, so she knew it well.At that time, she was immediately attracted by that mark, and she even pestered Shen Tianhe to ask him how he got it, and she also wanted one.However, Shen Tianhe just used the excuse of "children don't understand" as an excuse, and then continued to say the same words, and refused to say more.

Shen Tianhe had that imprint very early, before Liu Shuyan entered the palace at that time, if she also had it, then what she said was probably true.Looking at it now, that imprint should only be the imprint of the teacher's sect, and it caused her to miss it for so long.

Now that Liu Shuyan dared to say that, the peach blossom seal on her chest must be fake, so don't look any further.But if what Liu Shuyan said is true, she is really Shen Tianhe's junior sister, and she really isn't the one who wants to harm her, then why did she pretend to be so bad before?

Now that things have happened, Shen Zhi doesn't intend to pretend to be confused with Liu Shuyan anymore.She pursed her lower lip, took a long breath, and finally frowned, squinted her eyes, and asked, "Then what happened in the past? Why didn't Gu never know before? Why didn't the emperor and the imperial concubine know about it earlier?" What should I tell Gu?"

Shen Zhi asked three questions in one breath, eager to know more, but Liu Shuyan couldn't help but smile.

"Is Your Highness cold? Come here and cover it up. If you catch the wind and cold, it will be difficult to do business tomorrow." After speaking, Liu Shuyan lay down again, spread the quilt straight, and left a space for Shen Zhi beside him, "I Talk to His Highness slowly."

Just now he didn't feel that, now that Liu Shuyan said that, Shen Zhi felt a little cold behind his back.She trembled unconsciously, rubbed her hands together, and chose to trust Liu Shuyan for the time being, took two steps forward, and found an empty space to get in.

Although Shen Zhi felt cold, in fact her body was still hot.It was a black light, and she moved eagerly again. As soon as she got into the bed, her feet touched Liu Shuyan's cold body.Subconsciously, she drew her feet back, moved them to the side, and then put her little head on the pillow, looking up at Liu Shuyan, waiting for her story.

"All right."

She said softly, and Liu Shuyan also turned sideways and looked at her.

"Then I'll start talking about it when I entered the palace." Liu Shuyan's eyes flickered, looking into Shen Zhi's eyes full of tenderness.

"The queen passed away. After the emperor found out the truth, he executed more than a hundred people involved in the incident in a fit of anger, including the concubines Xian and De. His highness knew about it. But what his highness didn't know was that the emperor, apart from the queen, , have never met other women. Those rare concubines in the harem are all in name only, so the two of them were dissatisfied, held a grudge against the queen, and secretly planned the big drama back then. But the emperor is wise, even if the two of them No matter how seemingly impeccable it is, it will eventually show its flaws and be seen through."

"After this incident, all the concubines in the harem were dead or useless, leaving only concubine Shu and a few low-ranking women. The harem was sparse, and all the ministers wrote to the emperor to fill the harem. The emperor was forced by their daily Persuasion was terribly annoying, and due to the needs of the government, accepting concubines could indeed bring benefits to the political situation, so they finally compromised. Since then, the emperor has successively selected many women into the palace, but he has no time to take care of them In addition, during that period of time, the situation in the court was a little turbulent due to the empress's involvement, so the emperor let me into the palace. First, I can advise him on business matters, and second, I can also manage the harem for him. At that time, I was still traveling with Master, and Master immediately brought me back to Beijing after receiving the emperor's letter from Feige, and the Grand Concubine Canonization Ceremony will be held on the chosen day."

"After so many years, the emperor still hasn't touched other women. What His Highness and others have seen of the imperial concubine dominating the harem is just a pretense in front of outsiders, so that the emperor has a reason not to set foot in other palaces."

"As for why I was a little alienated from His Highness before, it was because..." At this point, Liu Shuyan's eyes flickered suddenly, and there was a slight sense of loss in his eyes.She paused, and then said, "The emperor didn't want His Highness to participate in court disputes, so he didn't intend to train His Highness to be a prince with real talents; he didn't want His Highness to follow in the empress's footsteps, so he never planned Let Your Highness have anything to do with me, who is the "Glory and Favor". Six years ago, His Highness was actually tricked into it by those people. She was taken care of by a special person, so she escaped a catastrophe."

"As for the emperor's personal conquest recently, Shen Tai has long been plotting, and this period of time is his best opportunity. It's just that half of the power in the capital is in the hands of me and my elder brother. He dare not act rashly, so he wants to provoke you The relationship between the two of us, I want to get rid of me with the help of His Highness, and then weaken the power of my brother. He sent someone to spread the words of my lover. His Highness has become another incompetent, licentious and useless Prince Chengqing in the eyes of the world. He has established a very good image in front of people, if His Highness is really like this, then his usurping the throne will be more justified."

"Actually, after learning that His Highness is a daughter, the emperor made a plan to pass the throne to Shen Tai's younger brother, Shen Yue. Unfortunately, Shen Yue died of illness, and Shen Tai's behavior was not right. The plan to re-train His Highness. The way I treated His Highness a few days ago, I also wanted to test whether His Highness is as stupid as the rumors said."

The author has something to say: make up today's third update tomorrow, hehe.
