"Your Majesty, this Ruoyan was originally the maid next to Chen Concubine, and she and Ning'er were good sisters. At the beginning, Chen Concubine also asked them to serve the princess together. Now that Ning'er has become a noble, Chen Concubine gave her to Ning'er as a wife.

Maid!" When the queen saw that the emperor was staring at Ruoyan, an ominous premonition suddenly arose in her heart. [ ]

Ruoyan was hailed as the most beautiful woman in Manchuria a few years ago. Her appearance was outstanding and few could match it. If the emperor fell in love with her now, wouldn't it be even worse?

Wei Ning'er naturally noticed it. Her pupils shrank, and then she gently pulled the emperor and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Ruoyan is the daughter of a Manchu noble. It is really wronging her to stay in the palace as a maid. Since Master Fucha and

If Ruoyan is in love, I beg the emperor to marry Ruoyan!"

Now that things have happened, seeing the emperor staring at Ruoyan, Wei Ning'er knew that the emperor must have been smitten by Ruoyan's peerless beauty. She would never let Ruoyan become the emperor's woman like her and be unable to escape her whole life.

This is the inner courtyard of the palace.

What's more, the Queen just said that Fu Heng came to see Ruoyan. If the emperor falls in love with Ruoyan this time, what will happen to Fu Heng? I'm afraid he will be severely punished. Ruoyan will be punished in the future.

Life will not be easy for her. It is a taboo for a woman to have her own heart before she becomes the emperor.

She couldn't let anything happen to Fu Heng, nor could anything happen to Ruoyan. The only solution for now was to ask the emperor for marriage. Even though when she said these words, she felt heartbroken and breathless, but she still

Are there any other options?

The emperor had come to his senses at this time, and he also remembered that he had seen this maid in the Queen's Palace before, but he had never seen it clearly. He only thought that the maids in the Queen's Palace were all good-looking, and he never took it to heart.

Now that I look at it like this, it is indeed a bit amazing, but I just feel

He thought she was beautiful, but he didn't have any other thoughts, not to mention that Wei Ning'er beside him was no less generous. In comparison, although Ruo Yan was more beautiful, Wei Ning'er was like those pear blossoms in the eyes of the emperor.

The refreshing fragrance is refreshing and does not feel cloying at all.

"It's not impossible to grant a marriage, but Fu Heng is a Manchu noble and comes from a famous family. If I want to grant a marriage, I have to give it some thought." The emperor looked at Wei Ning'er and the queen and said with a smile.

But Fu Heng was a little confused by all the sudden events. When he came back to his senses, he heard the emperor's words. He was shocked and was about to say something when he heard the queen say: "Your Majesty, what if this is the case?"

Yan is not the daughter of an ordinary family. She was originally a show girl who entered the palace, but she offended Imperial Concubine Huixian and was demoted to a palace maid. Concubine Shu Yehenara is Ruo Yan's biological sister!"

"Shu Bin..." The emperor paused for a moment, then remembered a childish and beautiful face.

"Your Majesty, Ruoyan was born in the Zhenghuang Banner of Manchuria. Her father Nalan Mingzhu was a powerful minister during the reign of Emperor Kangxi. Her father Nalan Kuifang also became an official. His wife (grandmother)

She is a princess with royal blood, her mother was once the left minister of the Ministry of War, and her mother-in-law is also from a famous family. I see that she and Fu Heng are a perfect match!" the queen said with a smile.

"The Queen said this, and I remembered it. Yes, it is indeed a good match, but... Fu Heng, you broke into the harem secretly, and I can't let it go." The emperor pondered for a moment and then said.

"Your Majesty..." The queen suddenly became anxious, with tears flashing in her eyes.

When the emperor saw the queen looking at him with a pleading face, his heart suddenly tightened, and he sighed: "Well, luckily this matter has not become a big deal. For the sake of the queen, I will give up. But if you are so reckless again in the future,

, I will never forgive you lightly!" She was just a palace maid. Even though this palace maid was extremely beautiful, the emperor did not feel the slightest bit reluctant to part with her.

It's just that he was a little disappointed with Fu Heng. The Queen had high hopes for Fu Heng, and so was he. This time he lost his sense of proportion for the sake of a palace maid. He really shouldn't have.

"Yes, thank you for your grace, Your Majesty!" the Queen bowed slightly and said.

At this time, Fu Heng was staring at Wei Ning'er, his eyes full of pain. He couldn't believe that Ning'er would ask the emperor to marry him and Ruoyan. Although he knew that Ning'er must be trying to protect him, he couldn't accept it.

"Your Majesty, I think Fu Heng is so happy!" The Queen was afraid that the Emperor would see the clues, so she immediately walked up to Fu Heng and blocked his view, then turned around and said, "Why don't you thank the Emperor for his kindness!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" After a while, Fu Heng's clenched fists slowly loosened and he kowtowed heavily to the Emperor.

"I will marry you tomorrow, please kneel down and pay your respects!" the emperor said with a slight frown.

"Yes!" Fu Heng stood up and exited the main hall of Xianfu Palace.

Only then did he realize that he had lost Wei Ning'er forever. In this life, they would eventually become strangers. In this case, why should he care about who he married?

How could he refuse in the situation just now? If he refused, both Ning'er and her sister would definitely be punished.

"Your Majesty, Lili was clamoring to go to the Yangxin Hall just now. She said she hadn't seen Huang Ama in a few days, so think about it!" At this moment, the Queen smiled.

"Okay, I'll go and see her!" The emperor suddenly remembered that he really hadn't seen the princess for two days. The girl was getting more and more wild now. He couldn't see her even when he went to Changchun Palace.

"I'll come see you tomorrow!" The emperor looked at Wei Ning'er and said with a smile.

"Farewell to the Emperor, congratulations to the Queen!" Wei Ning'er said with a slight blessing.

It wasn't until the emperor and empress left that Wei Ning'er fell to the ground.

"Ning'er!" Ruoyan was startled and wanted to help her.

"I'm not in the way!" Wei Ning'er shook her head slightly and then sat on the ground blankly.

"Ning'er, actually I...I like Fu Heng, but I have never thought of marrying him, I..." At this point, Ruoyan doesn't know what to do.

"Ruoyan, this is the best, this is the only way to protect you. Fu Heng is the one I love, and you are my good sister. I can't see anything happening to any of you. Now that you can marry Fu Heng, I will

Don't worry!" Although Wei Ning'er had a smile on her face, Ruoyan felt her sadness.

"Ning'er, I'm going to tell the Queen that I won't marry Fu Heng!" For some reason, looking at Wei Ning'er who was so lost, Ruo Yan felt a strong sense of guilt rising in his heart.

Even if Fu Heng and Ning'er couldn't become a couple, she shouldn't fall into it, as it would not end well.

She doesn't want to end up with the one she loves and turn against her best sister.

"Silly Ruoyan, if you really do this, the emperor will suspect that we deceived him. If the truth is revealed, neither you, me nor Fu Heng will survive. We cannot bear the crime of deceiving the emperor, Queen Mother

You will also be implicated!" Wei Ning'er said with a bitter smile.

Although Wei Ning'er suppressed the pain in her heart, she stayed up all night that night, and her tears seemed to flow forever. No matter how much she endured, it was of no avail.

Early on the next morning, Wei Ning'er got up at five o'clock and asked the maids to wash her, so that she could go to Changchun Palace to pay her respects to the Queen early.

But who would have thought that her eyes were so swollen that she could not open them, which shocked Bingruo.

Looking at herself in the bronze mirror, Wei Ning'er gently stroked her face and closed her eyes. Last night was the last night she missed him and indulged herself. From now on, he will be Ruoyan's husband, and she, Wei Ning'er, will be with her again.

There is no connection at all.

"Little Master, your eyes are too swollen, what should you do?" Bing Ruojian was so serious that even more rouge and gouache could not cover it, and her hands began to tremble.

Qingyan on the side was also a little anxious, and said: "I heard that hot eggs can reduce swelling, so I will have them boiled!"

"No need, the small kitchen is always used by noble people, forget it!" Wei Ning'er didn't want to cause trouble.

At this moment, Ruoyan entered the dormitory. When she saw Wei Ning'er's swollen eyes, she was slightly startled. Then she glanced at the bed without a trace, and saw that the quilt was soaked in a large area, and her heart ached.

She couldn't sleep all night last night, and she was more happy than worried. But today, when she saw Ning'er and saw that she had been crying all night, she felt uneasy.

"Forget it, I won't go to Changchun Palace today. Bingruo, ask Aunt Qingzhu to go to Changchun Palace and tell her that I'm not feeling well today. Please let the Empress lower the curtain!" Wei Ning'er saw how she looked now, even if she let her go to Changchun Palace.

She didn't dare to go out anymore.

"Yes!" Bingruo responded.

After all, everyone in the palace knows that Wei Ning'er belongs to the queen, and the queen will never make things difficult for her. Now that the trouble-making imperial concubine has passed away, and the harem is much more stable, who dares to cause trouble for the queen.

Wei Ning'er stayed up all night, so she was forced to sleep by Ruoyan. When she got up, it was already past noon. Fang got up and listened to Bingruo who was standing by her side. The emperor decreed that Ruoyan was given to Fu Heng as his heir.

wife.

The news had spread throughout the harem, and Wei Ning'er was the last to know.

The emperor opened his mouth yesterday, and today he will definitely issue an edict. Wei Ning'er knew it, but after hearing it, she felt infinite sadness in her heart.

But when she saw Ruoyan entering the bedroom with a happy face, she immediately hid the sadness in her eyes.

The person in front of her is the best sister she has ever had since entering the palace. The old people in the palace all say that there will be no true family affection in this deep palace compound. Even sisters from the same mother will plot against each other in order to compete for favor.

Kill the killer; there will be no love here, just because the emperor is a ruthless person, and the concubines in the harem are just tools for him to carry on the family line and stabilize the country; there will be no friendship here, so-called good sisters

All are fake.

But she didn't think so.

No matter how ruthless the place is, there are still people with feelings, but the inner courtyard of the palace forces people to plan, calculate, and harm others, just to survive.

Who is willing to have blood on his hands? Who is willing to have no peace every day, and who is willing to seek trouble for others for no reason but also to make life difficult for himself.

Just because there is only one man in the palace, the emperor, they have to make plans and compete for favor, because they can only survive by relying on this man's curtain.

The women in the palace were nothing more than vassals of the emperor.
