Chapter 24: The Crown Prince Chooses the Concubine
Lanzhu was even more cautious, because this matter was kept very closely guarded, and she knew everything about the harem because she was sent by Shangguan Rui to work beside Su Qiyu.
She leaned into Su Qiyu's ear and said mysteriously: "This matter has to start with the Yujin Kingdom. At that time, Libi was a beautiful woman with outstanding talents. Libi's mother's family was not a family of officials, nor was it a businessman for generations. It was just peaceful and peaceful.
He is a good citizen and has nothing to do with the royal family. The Lord of the Yujin Kingdom issued an imperial edict and ordered all women over the age of fourteen to enter the imperial palace. Concubine Li was selected into the harem of the Yujin Kingdom because of her outstanding beauty. The current emperor was the crown prince of the Yujin Kingdom and the Lord of the Yujin Kingdom.
I am interested in selecting a suitable concubine for him, and Concubine Li is on the list."
Speaking of this, Su Qiyu became more and more interested. She had never heard about Ye Jinmo's stay in the Yujin Kingdom and was very interested in it.
"What happened next? With Li's beauty, she should be able to be elected as the princess concubine!" Su Qiyu guessed, and had to admit that Li's beauty was definitely not inferior to hers.
Such a beauty can definitely stand out in the harem, and it is not certain that she will become the king's favorite concubine.
"Of course the emperor will not choose Concubine Li as his concubine," Lan Zhu said firmly.
"Why?" Su Qiyu asked hurriedly. Li's beauty was not inferior to anyone in the entire harem, but how could she be so famous when she was in the Mood for Love?
It would be a pity for Su Qiyu if she was not elected.
Lanzhu sighed: "In the past, which show girl didn't have a proud life experience? Concubine Li has no power or money. If it weren't for her natural beauty, it would be absolutely impossible for her to be selected as a concubine. Moreover, the princess
Have you forgotten? The emperor had his own heart back then."
Su Qiyu paused for a few seconds before reacting.
How could she forget Yan'er back then? It was because she was so much like Yan'er that she managed to survive the country's subjugation. One can imagine how deeply Ye Jinmo loved Yan'er.
She was almost anxious to death. She was most afraid that Lan Zhu would say half and keep half. Besides, now that we got to the point, she also wanted to know about Yan'er very much.
"The emperor has a deep affection for Yan'er, and he will definitely not agree to choose the concubine."
"Exactly, the emperor didn't show up at all on the day of the draft. In order to save face, the leader of the Yujin Kingdom sent the eldest prince Ye Jinchi to choose the concubine for the emperor."
Su Qiyu became more and more confused after hearing this. Why did another Ye Jinchi appear?
Lanzhu explained patiently: "Ye Jinchi's mother-in-law is the first of the four concubines, and her status is second only to the emperor's mother. Although Ye Jinchi is the eldest son, he is a concubine, and his status is not as noble as the emperor's. In addition, he has no
He is a man of no virtue, and the leader of the Yujin Kingdom does not like him. If not for the strong recommendation of Concubine De, how could such a fool come out to replace the emperor in choosing a concubine?"
There was a trace of sarcasm on Lanzhu's face, and she seemed to have a bad impression of Ye Jinchi. She paused and continued: "Ye Jinchi is a lustful person. Of course he covets Libi's beauty, but he is unwilling to do so.
To let a beauty like Concubine Li fall into the hands of the emperor, he just randomly selected a few fair girls of average beauty. The emperor's biological mother also participated in selecting concubines for the emperor, and the current empress and concubine Wan were added to the list.
"
After listening to Lan Zhu's words, Su Qiyu learned about the relationship between the emperor, the queen, Concubine Wan and Concubine Li, and realized that the years they spent together with Ye Jinmo were beyond her reach, so now, the queen and Concubine Wan are just
It has such an important position!
"What happened next?" Su Qiyu found this story very attractive.
"The fathers of the Queen and Concubine Wan, one is powerful and the other is rich. As a mother, she naturally has to plan for her son as a backing to consolidate the government and the public in the future, so the Queen and Concubine Wan must marry the emperor. As for Concubine Li,
At that time, the emperor's mother-in-law had no intention of letting the emperor marry a low-class citizen, so when Concubine De mentioned to her that she wanted to give Li's concubine to Ye Jinchi, she immediately agreed to the marriage."
It turned out to be the case, Su Qiyu suddenly realized, and she felt a little more sympathetic to Libi's story.
With no background and no family, a beautiful and beautiful woman lives alone in the harem, but due to acquired conditions, she becomes the target of a lustful man. I am afraid that it was Ye Jinchi who begged Concubine De to beg Concubine Li, so Concubine Li.
Just got engaged to Ye Jinchi.
It's a pity that such a beautiful woman fell into the hands of a idiot. Based on her understanding of Li's concubine, she must not be reconciled.
"It's impossible for Concubine Li to be willing to marry an unpopular prince. The emperor was the future prince at that time. No woman would be willing to marry someone else temporarily." Su Qiyu said firmly.
"The princess is right, Li Concubine is indeed unwilling." Lan Zhu agreed, then her tone softened and she sighed: "But even so, Li Concubine has no ability to change this matter."
Su Qiyu seemed a little sad. Su Qiyu could definitely relate to the helplessness in the harem. Was it different when she first came here?
Nothing is beyond your control, and you can never decide your own destiny.
"What happened next?" Su Qiyu had already engraved this story in her heart. She was no longer trying to find out the news, but wanted to know Libi's ending and whether she would be coveted by God.
Lanzhu sorted out her thoughts and recalled as much as she knew: "What happened next must start with Yan'er."
"What does this have to do with Yan'er?" Su Qiyu felt that the matter involved was not as simple as she thought. Ye Jinmo must have done it for Yan'er because the genius did not show up on the day of the draft, so he let Ye Jinchi take his place.
Because of this substitution, Li Bin's fate changed, and she was bound by a marriage contract with Ye Jinchi. She wanted to know how Li Bin escaped from Ye Jinchi's marriage and became a
The current Libi’s?
Does all this have anything to do with Yan'er?
Lanzhu explained: "In fact, many major events happened in the Yujin Kingdom that year. First, there were abnormal celestial phenomena and nine stars in a row. Then there were floods in the south and drought in the north. The Heaven Appraisal Master predicted that there were evildoers in the harem, and everyone in the palace was panicked. And, finally,
The spearhead is pointed directly at Yan'er."
Su Qiyu was shocked. Speaking of Yan'er, her heart actually hurt a little.
"It was that year that Yan'er mysteriously disappeared." Lan Zhu added.
Although it was only summarized in a few sentences, Su Qiyu could feel the doubts and speculations Yan'er faced at that time. She is now very sure that Yan'er must be someone who has traveled through time, so she, like her, because of some ordinary people
His weird words and deeds will definitely push Yan'er to the forefront in the eyes of superstitious people.
