Chapter 120 Baochai's ambition

But there are very few people who live in this world without ambition.Whether it is the civil and military officials in the former dynasty, or the concubines in the harem, almost no one can see the word fame and fortune, and few people can pat their chests with confidence and admit that they are not. of any ambition.If a man has no ambition, it may be a good thing to some extent, at least he will not take any risks, and his life will be much more comfortable.For example, Baoyu, he has always been very content with the status quo.Now he can be said to have no regrets in this life.In the Xining palace, whether it is the princess of Xining or the king of Xining, they are all very satisfied with this gentle and polite son-in-law.Even the emperor Shui Jing was quite satisfied with Baoyu's political achievements and achievements in the past year, but Baoyu had no ambitions in his official career. Yongzhen Suzhou.In the palace of Prince Xining, after Baoyu received the imperial decree, he did not speak for a long time. He had no intention of official career at all, but now he was conferred the title of Marquis by Shui Jing, and he was ordered to stay in Suzhou forever... and the whole family of Prince Xining heard this After the decree, everyone relaxed in unison.

And for the women in the harem, the emperor's favor is even more related to their lifelong happiness and the prosperity of the whole family.Throughout the ages, no matter which dynasty or generation, there is a saying that goes like that - when the emperor is angry, he will bleed for thousands of miles.Then on the other hand, if anyone can get the emperor's long-term honor and favor, then he will definitely rise to the top and become a leader.For Baochai, entering the palace this time is the biggest bet and expectation of her life.I have seen the pomp and feast of the royal family, as well as the majesty and dignity of the royal family.It made her already restless heart even more restless.She has been in the palace for several months now, and when she is free, she always walks around and asks about the situation in each palace.Of course, both Liu Hou and Shui Jing saw her tricks. "Sure enough, he is restless!" Shui Jing laughed. "If she really knows her role, then why would she often go to Brother Bao's Yihong Courtyard when she was there!" Xichun said coldly.Xichun has often been in and out of Zhaoyang Palace recently, because Shui Jing specially asked Yuanchun to assist the Sixth Palace in order to let Empress Liu have a safe pregnancy. Because Empress Liu loves Xichun very much, she took her to Zhaoyang Palace to accompany her.Therefore, when Xichun had nothing to do, she would accompany Liu Pingting and teach Liu Hou's two princes and princesses how to draw.

In this harem, if a woman wants to be successful, she must first know how to protect herself.What's more, we must understand that only by being able to endure loneliness can we enjoy life in peace for a long time.In this deep palace, no woman can stay young forever, and no woman can have the emperor's favor for a long time.If you are lucky, if you can take this opportunity to get a dragon son and a phoenix daughter during the rain and dew, you will have hope and support in this life.Such as Yuanchun and the like.If you fail to conceive a dragonborn, even if the scenery is infinite at this time, once you get old and look bad, you can imagine the desolation of the second half of the body.For example, Zhao Feiyan in the Western Han Dynasty, even though she was the empress of the dynasty and had unlimited favor, but because she failed to give birth to a prince for the emperor, she just committed suicide and forgot.

When Baochai was still at home in Jinling, she had read many books on this subject. She knew very well that if she could not win her own piece of world in this deep palace, then her fate would be worse than that of Zhao Feiyan and Yang Yuhuan in history. It's even more miserable.Fortunately, since she was a child, she liked to read some unofficial histories of ancient concubines, so she has her own views on the competition for favor that is only seen in the harem.If not, she would not have conspired with her mother and Mrs. Wang to poison Daiyu's food and soup when she was in Jia's mansion.Historically, most of the women in the harem did everything they could to compete for favor and supremacy.For example, Daji from the Yin and Shang Dynasties, Zhao Feiyan from the Han Dynasty, Wu Zetian from the Tang Dynasty... These women were not high-ranking women when they first entered the palace.Who among these women was able to enter the main palace after a battle, and become the mother of the world.For Baochai, if he can replace the emperor like Wu Zetian, it may be relatively out of reach.However, if he could successfully bring down the queen like Wu Meiniang did, that would be a great victory.

But she also thought that Liu Pingting had already given birth to a son and a daughter for Shui Jing, and she was pregnant again.If you want to bring her down, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult.Now it seems that only by getting the favor of Shui Jing as soon as possible, can she have a day in the top position.According to her calculations, it has been more than half a year since she entered the palace. During this period, she knew that Shui Jing had already met several women who entered the palace with her.Among them, there is Rong nobleman Xia Qiuyue who lives with Liu Hou in Zhaoyang Palace, and several other concubines.It is said that two months later, one of the talented people who was favored by the favor announced the good news, and this news reached Baochai's ears, which made her almost go crazy with jealousy.So much so that every time she met that concubine outside, it was as if she had met her enemy for eight lifetimes.Every time when he went to pay homage to Empress Liu, seeing Empress Liu taking good care of her pregnant concubine, Baochai felt like a cat scratching her heart.Later, when it was reported that the talented person had lost the dragon fetus because of eating something by mistake, Shui Jing, in order to comfort her, made a special decree, bestowing on her the title of Jieyu, and she was promoted two ranks in a row.In Baochai's view, this is actually half joy and half worry.

At the same time, good news came from the palace again. The eldest prince of southern Xinjiang has taken a fancy to Tanchun. Recently, during the morning court, he specially went to the palace to meet the emperor and asked to marry Tanchun as his concubine.When the news reached the harem, Baochai became even more mad.Thinking of her, Jia Tanchun, He De and He Neng, she has such good luck. She was previously a fourth-rank female official, and now she is about to be the empress of a country.Think about yourself, whether it is appearance or knowledge, is there anything inferior to her?When I was in Jia's house, Tanchun was not the most outstanding among all the girls, no matter in Grand View Garden or Jia's mansion.In terms of background, she can only be regarded as the daughter of a concubine in Jia's family, and she is not favored, and her biological mother, Aunt Zhao, is even less so.Of course Baochai would not know that during the past few years, Tanchun followed Jia Mu and Daiyu and learned many things that she had never heard of or seen before.Tanchun's vision, insights, knowledge and courage have all been improved and sublimated through repeated experiences and studies. She has long since been reborn, and she is no longer the concubine daughter of the inexperienced Jia family.

Until one day, when she saw Tanchun playing with Daiyu from a distance in the imperial garden, she realized that Tanchun was no longer what it used to be, because she saw that she had a bit of a superior person in her body. The aura, and this aura is actually very similar to the Empress Liu who is in the middle palace.This kind of charm cannot be imitated by anyone, nor can anyone ignore it.Baochai finally knows what it means to "be apart from each other for three days and treat each other with admiration!" Standing in front of Daiyu and Tanchun, she actually feels humble and wants to escape from them as soon as possible... Baochai completely collapsed.
