Agree, Imperial Concubine. Aren't we all concubines? Since they are all concubines, why bother so much?

"Under the decree! With the blessing of the heavens, under the decree of the Emperor, the direct daughter of the Shen family has a noble character, is gentle and virtuous, and is a first stage Consort Xian who has chosen a auspicious day to enter the palace.

The west wing was filled with red candles, fine delicacies were placed on the round red wooden table, and there were also dishes and snacks for the children. There were red silk strings wrapped around the wine cup.

The moment they entered the palace gates that were as deep as the sea and the innocent, kind and lively young girl from before had become an adult overnight, this feeling was even more suffocating.

Shen Qing Wan sighed, for the past, for the future.

Within the walls, in the harem, the bones of countless magnificent women had been buried. As for himself, in the end, he could not escape his fate and could not live up to the emperor's will.

Just as Shen Qingwan was about to wash up, a bright yellow figure slowly walked in.

"Your majesty."

Lian Yun immediately knelt down and saluted.

Didn't he come?

The emperor's head had long been lifted by Shen Qingwan, and the emperor's body was emitting a faint dragon's saliva. He stared straight at Shen Qingwan, as if he wanted to stare her out of the cave.

"Your servant has been impolite. Your majesty, please forgive me."

After a long while, the emperor finally said slowly, "General Shen's daughter is indeed different from the other girls."

These words that contained neither joy nor anger made the surrounding people's hairs stand on end. Only Shen Qingwan's face was as calm as water.

She calmly said, "Your Majesty is too kind."

"Consort Xian!"

Fu Yuheng snorted coldly as all the servants in the hall fell to their knees.

"The people of Shang Jing have said that General Shen has given birth to an incomparably intelligent daughter. In my opinion, Consort Xian isn't very intelligent."

Shen Qingwan smiled, slightly nodded her head, and remained silent.

"Then do you know that according to etiquette, on the night that I entered the palace from a first rank consort, I was supposed to be resting in her palace?"

Shen Qing Wan heard this and chuckled, "Chenqie knows that Your Majesty is not willing to stay here tonight."

"How dare you!"

Fu Yuheng could no longer remain calm. He looked at Shen Qingwan and said word by word, "Shen Qingwan, if it wasn't for your father, I wouldn't even spare you a glance."

How could she not know?

The daughter of the General Shen, a first grade Consort Xian right after entering the palace, how glorious was that! However, if she could choose, even if she had to abandon her identity, she would still choose to be together with her husband. However, in the end, she was just a powerless little girl. She was just a pawn the Emperor and her family had placed on each other.

What about her?

Abandon this identity and the lives of all 178 members of the Shen family. If he gave up this clan, how far could he flee?

"It's all your concubine's fault, your majesty." Shen Qingwan immediately knelt down and nodded her head, then continued, "But chenqie wasn't able to do it."

Fu Yuheng sneered as he looked down at Shen Qingwan who was kneeling on the marble floor.

"Uncontrollable?" He laughed out loud, "What a great saying. You mean that I am forcing you?"

Shen Qingwan kowtowed, "Chenqie has no intention of doing so."

What should she do? She might not even be able to enter the palace, and it would also be wrong to not enter the palace.

"Shen Qing Wan, the position of Consort Xian was requested by your father. Since that's the case, don't blame us for not being polite! You know, you forced me to do all this. If you dare come up with any tricks, don't blame us for not showing you any mercy! "

Fu Yuheng gritted his teeth. He had left the position of Consort Xian with his, but because of a single sentence from Shen Tianao, he had no choice but to accept her daughter into the palace.

Impossible, he was a great general of Shang Jing, with tens of thousands of soldiers in his hands, without Shen Tianao, he could not do it. He clenched his fists and silently swore to himself that one day, he would be the one to decide everything.

Shen Qingwan was stunned, she was still unable to react, her father forced him to do so?

His father had told him that the emperor's orders could not be disobeyed, but he had no other choice. How could it be his father?

"What does Your Majesty mean by this?" Shen Qingwan raised her head, her face was at a loss, "My father would never do that. Moreover, the Emperor is a ruler of the country, how could he be threatened by others?"

Fu Yuheng bent over and ruthlessly pinched Shen Qingwan's chin, then said coldly, "Consort Xian, ah, Consort Xian, why do you have to pretend to be ignorant? If you don't believe it, why don't you ask your father? You might understand. "

Saying that, he fiercely threw her to the side.

He glanced at the silk cloth on the bed and said with disgust, "I won't favor you tonight. I won't sleep with you for even ten years. However, it's better if I do something good."

Saying that, he took out the dagger from his body, pulled Shen Qingwan to the side of the bed, and pressed her hand onto the silk cloth. With a "si" sound, blood flowed down from Shen Qingwan's finger and dripped onto the pure white silk cloth, like a lotus from hell.

"Tomorrow morning, remember to send this silk cloth to the Palace of Tzu Ning!"

When Shen Qingwan finally reacted, she let out a miserable laugh. What a pity!

Fu Yuheng started to walk away, but was stopped by Shen Qingwan, "You want to leave before the show is done?" Isn't this all a waste of effort? "

She casually found a piece of cloth to bandage up her wound and said, "Your Majesty can step out of Changle Palace right now, but tomorrow there will be a rumor that Your Majesty did not rest in Changle Palace tonight. There are too many people in the palace, it's not like the Emperor doesn't know. "

Fu Yuheng's footsteps paused for a moment before returning.

"Shen Qingwan, you're threatening us?"

Shen Qingwan lowered her eyebrows and said: "Chenqie doesn't dare, I only know that what chenqie said is the truth. "Your Majesty is sleeping on a bed, I …"

Shen Qingwan stared at Fu Yuheng in shock. He actually hated his for using me as a servant girl?

A teardrop rolled down his face, but he couldn't bear to put on airs. Since he had entered the palace, since he was a concubine, there was nothing to resent.

This was his life.

Fu Yuheng was startled at first. Then, he glanced at Shen Qingwan who was obediently kneeling on the ground before she climbed onto the bed.

This woman …

"If Your Majesty falls asleep, chenqie will put out the lamp."

Fu Yuheng did not speak. As he listened to Shen Qingwan's gentle footsteps, he was unable to calm down for a long time. She was not noisy, unlike other girls. In the darkness, Shen Qingwan's face could not be seen clearly, and Fu Yuheng did not know what kind of feeling he had.
