mountain and river oath

During the Northern Wei Dynasty, Emperor Wu of Wei ended the chaos of the six kingdoms and unified the world. Until Emperor Wen and Emperor Xuan recuperated and rested with the people, the country was prosperous and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. Then he began to kill the ministers, and the government and the public were shaken for a while, and everyone was panicked, while the court was shaken, but the inner palace seemed to be peaceful.

In the second year of Emperor Jing of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Chengqian Palace was established.

The big peonies are blooming lushly, the red is gorgeous, the pink is romantic, and the yellow is elegant. The whole Chengqian Palace is shrouded in the delicate and beautiful peony flowers, which is rich and gorgeous.

A girl with a pretty face and a dignified look carefully walked through the peony flowers and walked into the main hall, knelt down in front of a screen embroidered with rotten peony flowers, and said in a low voice, "Your servant is happy, and I will see you."

"Look up, let me have a look." A lazy and soft voice came from the couch after a long time, a woman in peach-colored gauze leaned lazily on the couch, with a red peony in full bloom on her temple. , the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a bright smile, and a pair of charming eyes.

The girl raised her face carefully, looked over, but suddenly lost her mind.

"Hehe" the woman on the couch suddenly laughed.

"Slaves should die," the girl hurriedly lowered her head and said in panic.

"You have an interesting temper," the woman said, "I heard that you can read and do a good job in embroidery. You showed off my pair of shoes?"

"Yes" the girl replied in a low voice.

"From today onwards, you don't need to follow the sewing room to do sewing, but come to me and be a maid."

The "Niangniang" girl said in surprise, she didn't know why such a situation would be her turn.

"Don't understand?" the woman said, looking carefully at the kneeling girl, "You are a lucky person, and there will be great blessings waiting for you in the future. When the time comes, just don't forget about me."

"Thank you, servant girl, for your promotion." The girl hastily kowtowed to thank her.

"You're welcome, go down." The woman waved her hand lazily, and the girl retreated.

"Niang Niang" a girl in a green dress came to help the girl up, and the girl sat up with the help of the girl in the green dress. She looked up at the girl in the green dress and said, "Green hair, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. Now that I have a body, I can no longer serve the emperor, but in order to tie the emperor, I want to find a girl in the house, why not you, your beauty and appearance are outstanding, but you have no brains, you can't stand being rich, maybe you will be in vain. Life, why bother?"

"Your Majesty, as long as I can serve the Emperor, the servants are willing to do anything," said Lv Yan.

Concubine Li looked at Lu Yan, and said lightly, "Follow you, help me out for a walk."

"Yes" Lu Yan carefully helped Li Fei to go out.

Ruyi bid farewell to the sisters in the sewing room, and lived in Chengqian Palace under the envious eyes of everyone.

"Hey, Sister Ruyi is here." Seeing Ruyi, Lv Yan went to greet her early.

"Sister" Ruyi looked at Lvyan and said.

"The empress asked you to come over from the sewing room to be a personal maid, and we will be sisters from now on."

"My sister doesn't understand anything, so I have to trouble my sister more"

"Everywhere, they are all servants who work for the empress," Lu Yan said heartily.

Ruyi laughed, her clear eyes seemed to be filled with stars, her pretty face suddenly became vivid, her green frown looked jealous, no wonder the empress would choose her, she was quite pretty.

"Ruyi" Concubine Li was wearing a red gauze dress, against her snow-white complexion, she looked more and more bright like a blooming peony.

"The servant is here" Ruyi walked over and said.

"Green Frown"

"The slave is here"

"Go, put on your new clothes," Li Fei said lightly.

"Yes" Ruyi turned and left.

Lvxie was about to go out with Ruyi, Li Fei called out, "Lvxie, I have a lake green skirt in my box, you can wear it."

"Thank you, maidservant," Lu Yan knelt down and said excitedly.

"Don't say that I don't flatter you, that's all I can do to help you. Whether the emperor can see you or not depends on your ability," Li Fei said.

Green frown kowtowed, thanked Concubine Li, and left in a hurry.

As night fell, the emperor walked into the Chengqian Palace in casual clothes, accompanied by his personal eunuchs. Concubine Li hurried out to greet her with Lvyan and Ruyi.

"My concubine is pregnant, so I don't need to come out," Emperor Jing said, his attention was suddenly attracted

"Oh, this is..." Emperor Jing looked at Ruyi with great interest. Ruyi was wearing a white brocade dress, with a camellia in her hair, a little makeup on her fair and clean face, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised, looking bright and pure.

"The new girl, the Emperor, thinks it's good?" Concubine Li asked with a smile as she saw the emperor's ecstasy.

"A person is like a flower." The emperor reached out and picked the camellias on Ruyi's temples, and rubbed them in his hands.

"raise your head"

Ruyi raised her head and smiled slightly, with a bit of shyness and purity.

"Okay, very good, Concubine Ai is very kind." The emperor looked at Concubine Li and smiled with satisfaction.

"As long as the emperor likes it," Concubine Li followed with a smile.

"Let's go, I haven't eaten yet, I'm starving"

"The food has been prepared a long time ago." Li Fei smiled coquettishly and pulled the emperor inside.

"Ruyi, where are you doing in a daze? Why don't you come in and serve the emperor?" Concubine Li said dissatisfiedly. Ruyi followed her in as if she had woken up from a trance. Gritting teeth.

In the dead of night, a candle was lit in the inner room of Chengqian Palace. Concubine Li was sitting in front of the dressing table, her crow-black hair was long and loose on her back, looking infinitely charming.

"Ruyi is probably serving the emperor at this time." Lu Yan carefully took off Concubine Li's earrings.

"Not reconciled" Li Fei said.

Lu Yan shook her head, "I don't dare, I just don't understand, why the emperor would take a fancy to that lowly maid like Ruyi?"

Concubine Li sighed slightly, "In this big dye vat in the palace, everyone is scheming and scheming, and you will yearn for cleanliness, especially for men, it's best to have this one."

"Isn't your empress sad?" Green frown asked.

"There's nothing to be sad about, it's already doomed, that emperor doesn't have three wives and four concubines, if he's sad, it's going to be a hard day." Concubine Li looked at the beautiful face reflected in the bronze mirror, feeling a little sad.

"Rest," Li Fei said.

Green frown waits for Concubine Li to go to bed, turns around and walks out, closes the doors gently, and walks to the room where the slaves live, envious of Ruyi's good luck in her heart.

Green hair served Concubine Li for dinner, Concubine Li started to vomit during pregnancy, smelling the smell of food, she began to vomit, unable to eat anything, she lay listlessly on the couch, with one hand, gently stroking her lower abdomen.

"Niang Niang, you vomit so much, could you be a prince?" Lu Xiao asked.

"You haven't given birth to a child, what do you know?" Li Fei said angrily.

Green frown dare not say any more.

Suddenly, the eunuch shouted "Ms. Concubine Shu is here"

Then a woman in a pink palace dress walked in slowly.

"Why does my sister have time to come to my palace?" Concubine Li got up and said.

"My sister is really good. This month, the emperor has been in my sister's palace every day. My sister wants to see what kind of person my sister has made to hold the emperor's heart." Concubine Shu said.

"What's so lovely about it, the emperor likes to come to my place, what can my sister do, I can't let the emperor go out," said Concubine Li.

"Sister, don't lie to my sister. It's spread all over the palace now. Ruyi, a servant girl in my sister's palace, has a lot of tricks. I heard that the emperor is obsessed with her. Be careful, she will bite you back." Concubine Shu looked at Concubine Li. Something to say.

"What sister said, we are all sisters, as long as the emperor is well served is enough," Li Fei said disapprovingly.

"Sister, why are you pretending to be confused?" Concubine Shu said dissatisfied.

"Why is sister angry?" Concubine Li looked at Concubine Shu and said with a smile, "It's just a little maid, is it worth such a big fight?" Concubine Li said.

"Hey" Concubine Shu sighed, "My sister is not blessed. She gave birth to a daughter for the emperor. Seeing that there are many newcomers in the palace and her favor is gradually declining, her sister does not have the appearance and means of her younger sister. What's more, the emperor always doesn't value birth. If that Little slut, I'm afraid my sister will make way for her to give birth to a prince through grace."

"A lowly maid, no matter how favored she is, she can still fly up to a branch and become a phoenix," said Concubine Li.

"My sister is not in a hurry," Concubine Shu said.

"What can my sister do?" Concubine Li asked innocently.

"She is a member of your palace. The emperor has not appointed her yet. She has no power or power. The only thing she can rely on is you, my sister. Why can't my sister deal with her?" Concubine Shu said dissatisfied.

"Sister, we are master and servant, how can my sister bear it?" Concubine Li said.

Concubine Shu looked at Concubine Li, and said, "Since my sister doesn't want to, that's all." Concubine Shu turned and walked out resentfully.

When Concubine Shu was far away, Lvxio came over, helped Concubine Li up, and said worriedly, "Mother, you must guard against that girl Ruyi."

"It's just a girl. If I can bring her up, I will naturally have a way to deal with her." Li Fei said with a faint smile.Green frown looked at Concubine Li and felt chills in her heart. Concubine Li had been favored by the emperor for many years and kept herself safe in the harem. There must be something special about Concubine Li. But now Concubine Li has to deal with Ruyi who has no foundation.

"The empress sent a stupid Concubine Shu over here, wanting to use my hand to get rid of Ruyi." Concubine Li smiled coldly.

"Looks like the queen can't sit still anymore," Lv Xiao said.

"That's right, the queen and the emperor have been childhood sweethearts since they were young, and the queen's heart is devoted to the emperor. The last thing she sees is that someone is favored by the emperor. The queen is also an idiot. Doesn't she understand how much the emperor's love can be?" said Concubine Li .

"That's why the empress specially cultivated Ruyi?" Lu Xun said.

"Ruyi is my best weapon against the queen. However, if a sharp weapon is too sharp, it will eventually hurt the master. It is better to get rid of her when she has not formed a climate. You can contact Xiaoyan. I have something to explain to her." " Concubine Li said.

"Yes" Lu Yan bowed and retreated, thankful in her heart that she was not selected, otherwise she wouldn't know how she died, and she didn't know what kind of bloodbath Li Fei would cause.

"Ruyi, the Empress told you to come over," said Concubine Li, who sat on the couch and looked at Ruyi who was kneeling on the ground.

"Yes, servant girl knows," Ruyi said respectfully.

"It's hard for you to know the rules." Concubine Li casually said, "The queen is pregnant, and she has a bad appetite recently," Concubine Li said.

"Thank you for reminding me, this servant understands." Ruyi raised her head and looked at Concubine Li gratefully.

"It's good to understand, you are from my palace, if you give birth to a son and a half for the emperor in the future, you and I will be called sisters, why should I be a villain" said Concubine Li.

"I will always remember your mother's great kindness," Ruyi said.

"Just walk your own way, it's cold on the ground, get up quickly," Li Fei said.

"Xie Niangniang" Ruyi kowtowed to thank her, and stood up.

"go"

Ruyi bowed and exited.

"Niangniang, why are you so kind to that girl Ruyi? Remind her how to please the queen" Lv frowning stood up and said.

"Really?" Concubine Li was noncommittal, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, her eyes were covered with dark clouds, and Lvyan accidentally looked up, almost kneeling down in shock, her heart was cold, Concubine Li was not kind enough to suggest something, but to push her away. Xiang Huokeng, Lu Yan clearly remembered that three years ago, Concubine Li was pregnant with a child, but she had a miscarriage in less than three months. There have been rumors in the palace that Concubine Li's pregnancy was the prince. , the queen was not pregnant yet, the queen was worried that Concubine Li would affect her position, and designed to frame Concubine Li to have a miscarriage. Gritting her teeth, at this time the queen is pregnant, how could Concubine Li not act, Lvxiao thought to herself, but her face was calm, she didn't dare to show the slightest.
