Qin Fei's beauty could topple kingdoms; Qin Fei's voice could attract hundreds of birds.
It was rumored that Qin Fei was a rare sight to behold. A frown and a cluster, moving the spirit. Every move, captivating the soul, attracting the late emperor's love for Qin Fei at first sight. Qin Fei vowed not to follow the late emperor. In the end, the late emperor forcefully married Qin Fei under the condition of the lives of the remaining dozens of imperial clansmen.
After entering the palace, Qin Fei was constantly being pampered, attracting resentment from the women in the harem.
One year after Qin Fei entered the palace, she gave birth to a prince. Qin Fei's face was bathed in tears. In order to pacify Qin Fei, the late emperor ordered people to investigate this matter thoroughly. After a few more twists and turns, they finally found the head of one of the imperial concubines.
Just as everyone thought that the matter would end there, the Imperial Concubine slipped into the winter lake. Although she was saved by a eunuch by luck, she also suffered from severe cold, and after lingering on her sickbed for a few days, she finally passed away.
Strangely, the imperial concubine's mother did not express any opinion about this matter, as if it was really an accident.
The Imperial Concubine's death was too strange. The people in the court had made many guesses about it, but they had not found a basis for it.
Some people said that Qin Fei was a person of her generation and had the ability to bewitch others. After this matter, no one dared to offend Qin Fei.
This also planted the seeds for future disasters.
Rongguang for five years, the remnants of the disaster in the Kingdom of Yu Qing were in chaos. Qin Fei and the remnants of the Kingdom of Yu Qing worked together to help him kill his way to the Imperial City.
Fortunately, the late emperor had Bao Qingyu by his side, and she acted as a shield to protect him.
After this battle, the late emperor could no longer tolerate Qin Fei, and even if he dared to leave Qin Fei by his pillow, the ministers of the court would not agree.
Qin Fei was imprisoned by herself in the palace. The pale candle light shone on her haggard face. Although she hadn't put on any makeup, her eyes seemed to be filled with stars, and her lips were bloodless. She looked extremely beautiful. She was sitting upright, wearing a plain white robe that gave her a sense of coolness. Her long, ink-black hair was scattered at her waist, revealing a bit of laziness and indifference. Candles jumped, lights flickered, and the rustling of insects could be heard outside the window.
The late emperor stood outside the door with a complicated look on his face. There was hatred, love and also unwillingness.
That night, Qin Fei took out the Tong Mu Zither that she had brought back from Yu Qingguo for many years and started playing "The Beautiful Woman" once again. The sound of the zither was clear and melodious like the sounds of nature.
The late emperor was sitting on the roof alone, drinking wine. As he listened to the sound of the zither, the sound of the zither began to resound. He had guessed what Qin Fei was thinking, but he couldn't stop her.
After the song was over, Qin Fei tossed the white silk onto the rafters of the house. She tossed away the pitiful and lamentable life that she had lived. The late emperor drank the last drop from his wine pot and collapsed on the roof.
The eunuch next to the late emperor was one of the empress dowager's men. The empress dowager entered his chambers and heard him call out Qin Fei's name for the entire night.
When the girl in yellow heard the empress dowager's words, the light in her eyes vanished, as if she were a dead person.
The empress dowager had a look of contempt on her face as she walked back to her seat. She said softly, "Since you're still young, you should withdraw."
The woman could not thank her enough. She pulled the woman who had collapsed into a pile of mud and hurriedly left.
Su Mu knew that this girl would not appear in the capital again. It was highly likely that her parents would casually marry her into a distant family, or that she would grow an azure light with the ancient buddha.
"This girl is really stupid. She dares to eat the pie that has fallen from the sky?" Liu Zichen had nothing to do with it. He watched coldly as the two of them left the palace in a sorry state.
Su Mu could understand Huang Shuang woman's actions, but he did not agree with it.
After that, Lin Yi praised the two women.
Su Mu could not describe the emotions in his heart. He could only feel pain in his heart. She knew that it wouldn't be long before these girls would all enter the palace.
Su Mu didn't want to look anymore. She continued to eat the sweet peach and the small peach. Even if she ate, her stomach wouldn't be able to support her. Adding in the light breeze, Su Mu wasn't satisfied.
Liu Zichen fawningly gave the remaining peach buns to Su Mu. Su Mu looked at the remaining peach buns with disdain.
Liu Zichen chuckled, "Taste it first." "There are indeed a lot of places in the river, but I will send someone to deliver them to your home in the future."
Su Mu knew that he would not give in to his evil intentions, but he was too lazy to care about it. He simply turned his head away and filtered his voice, treating it as though he wasn't there.
"I heard that the Hu family has a woman called Hu Zi. Her sword dance has reached the acme of perfection. I wonder if I have such blessings?" The empress dowager had wanted to wait for Hu Chi to speak, but he didn't move for a long time. At the same time, Lin Yi's face turned restless as well. For the sake of the situation turning cold, she could only step out.
Madam Hu smiled and poked him where no one else could see. "It's not that this subject is boasting. My daughter's sword dance is indeed breathtaking."
Hu Chi stood up with a cold expression and said stiffly, "Many thanks to the empress dowager for your love, but my daughter didn't bring her sword today."
The empress dowager frowned. "There are many guards in the palace, you can pick any." The empress dowager wasn't interested in the so-called sword dance, but Hu Chi had grown up with the army and exuded an air of barbarism. Presumably, there was nothing else he could do.
The emperor could indeed directly seal Hu Zi as his backer, but he couldn't convince others. After becoming an imperial concubine, they all had to have talent and virtue accompanying them.
Huish was still looking for an excuse to refuse.
Lin Yi looked at her coldly and called out 'Wang'.
Wang Yun immediately handed over his treasure sword.
Hu Zi took the sword and stood silently in the middle of the hall.
"Let me tell you, this Hu Chi's sword dance is not bad at all. Open your eyes wide and take a good look." Liu Zichen looked towards Su Mu as if he didn't feel Su Mu's coldness towards him.
Liu Zichen's knuckles drummed rhythmically on the tabletop, and from time to time, he would play the glass cup, producing a crisp sound.
Hu Zi looked back at him and finally moved.
He raised his sword horizontally and his waist swayed.
Wild and reserved, passionate and sorrowful. At first glance, it was full of contradictions, but at last, it didn't seem too sudden.
The crowd only felt their heroic spirit rising to their chests. If another sword appeared, they would be able to slaughter everyone in their surroundings.
Hu Chi was like a raging inferno. Even if the fire was extinguished, it would leave behind ashes that the wind would not dissipate, leaving a deep imprint in the hearts of everyone present.
Liu Zichen didn't use his hands to grab the two glazed bowls, letting out a clear and melodious sound that resonated with the clanging of the sword in Hu Zi's hands.
After the dance, Hu Zi faced Liu Zichen and pointed his long sword at the ground.
Liu Zichen didn't look at her.
As the wind blew outside the door, her red dress fluttered in the wind. Hu Zi took a deep breath, turned around and drew a beautiful arc in the air with his sword.
"Wonderful! "Wonderful!" Her Majesty smiled.
Huish smiled stiffly.
Lin Yi nodded and praised, "This dance is wild and unrestrained. The manliness and gentleness of a woman mix together in an ingenious way. Very good, very good."
To date, Lin Yi had praised many people, but most of them only said "very good". Only Hu Zi had received such praise from Lin Yi, which showed how breathtaking his dance was.
Su Mu only felt a dull feeling in his chest, as if he had blocked off a breath of air.
