In August, during the grand ceremony, I was made queen of the Great Qing, but I was unhappy because of what the Emperor had done. He made me his queen, but he also made the whole harem. Furthermore, he had conferred Rong'er as the head of his seven concubines, and had even set a rule that would grant him a full surname and a high status. This series of actions was done by the Emperor without any hesitation.
I remember my elder brother looking at me strangely and asking, "Why are you trying to dissuade me?"
I said angrily, "Can't you see? "The emperor's system was set up for that servant, Rong'er."
"Empress, you must pay attention to your words and actions." Faka frowned at me and said, "Sister, you are already a queen. How can you speak like that?"
"I speak like this? What are you all doing? "Sister, I was bullied in the palace, did you not see it?" I angrily questioned Fakha.
"Bullied? Don't joke around, you're the empress! Who dares to bully you? " "You often tell us that this concubine is favored by the Emperor, but we are all watching from outside the palace. This concubine has given birth to five sons and a daughter, but she has only now been given a concubine.
"Am I not clearer than you people outside the palace? "The Emperor dotes so much on this clothed slave. One day, after I'm crippled, you won't even have a place to cry!" I am not satisfied with Fakha's ease.
"Little sister, don't joke around. We are the descendants of the capital, the meritorious founder of the Great Qing Empire. Do you think that the Emperor is not afraid of the power of our New Hulu family? If you can sit in the back seat, the Emperor won't dare to easily cripple you. Don't think too much about it! " "Didn't the emperor just like concubines? We've already noticed it long ago. This concubine doesn't have any power in her house, so what if she is favored? You don't have to be afraid. You just have to be content with being the empress, don't do anything immoral, and don't be jealous. This is taboo for a harem woman! Didn't the late emperor Jingfei only get crippled because she was jealous?
"You all …" They didn't care if I was happy or not. They only cared about the glory that my position could bring to their family, and thus, became their political capital in the imperial court. They didn't care about the favour of a concubine, because the favour of a concubine couldn't hurt the interests of outsiders in the imperial palace. At that moment, I suddenly felt very lonely, because when I was in this world, I didn't know who really cared about me.
I was disappointed with my life. I had the queen's seat that all the women in the world dreamed of. But what did I have? The Emperor, who was my queen, did not treat me differently. He was still neither hot nor cold, and I knew that if I had not been the daughter of the New Hulu family, the Emperor would not have chosen me as his successor.
I was very happy that the Emperor was going to introduce his own wife to the late emperor, but I didn't expect that the Emperor would also bring a concubine, a concubine, and a Noble Lady De. I endured my dissatisfaction and set off, but all the way, the warmth and love of a concubine was shown so cruelly in front of my eyes, I am the empress! To an ordinary family, I am the emperor's principal wife! He was in the prime of his life! What is a concubine? It was just a small concubine who was always worried about whether she would be tired after her initial illness.
Why did we stay at the spring? I heard that this Tang Quan can cure a hundred diseases, but the person who is sick seems to be only a concubine. He said it for us, isn't the emperor's private heart for a concubine? Do you take us all for fools?
The more you like her, the more I won't let her down. I hate the Emperor for his honor, and I hate all of it … I let my concubine make my clothes for me, but the little girl Noble Lady De actually spoke up for her. Why do I feel like the minds of the people in this palace aren't clear? I used to talk to my concubine about it. She was the only one I could trust in this palace, and she didn't say anything. I asked her once if they lived together in the palace. Otherwise, how could she have been doted on by the Emperor for more than ten years? The concubine only said lightly, "Rong'er is indeed a good person." I was thinking that my concubine must have some kind of charm that could enchant so many people; and that stupid Zhang Loki, who had caused Yin to agree to harm, or Hersheri, who should have done the most harm, was found out by that woman in the end.
Looking at the clothes that was sent over by that woman, the hatred in my heart became even more difficult to settle. Even the clothes were made so beautifully, such a virtuous woman … No, only a servant would have such a delicate hand. I wanted to spoil it. I gave it to my palace maid and made her dress and work. I think my heart must be happy …
