illegitimate child

In the late autumn of another year, the empress lived in the cold palace.That day, the autumn wind was blowing and the fallen leaves covered the sky. It was a beautiful scene, but I was not in a good mood. The large area of ​​Lenggong Xiyuan belonged to me.The old lady in the deep palace is the best at teasing people, there are many leaves and few leaves, and she doesn't care whether it rained or not the night before.

Every day, I carried a bamboo stick to patrol, and I followed her like a dog and wagged my tail.Whenever a leaf appeared in her sight, the bamboo stick in her hand would be merciless, greeting her cheeks and back.

Qi Guan hooked my cat and dragged my cat into the fragrant thorn bush, excitedly muttering: "Sister Suoqiu, I'm going to visit my mother today, so I will live in your Xiyuan, you will have a master!"

I raised my hand and twisted his ear and turned it hard. This kid gloated and came to the sufferer!Following his line of sight and looking forward through the fragrant thorn, the yellow leaves spread on the ground, and in a trance, he saw a turquoise skirt, which disappeared like a cloud in the blink of an eye.I thought to myself that this is probably the empress, the master of Xiyuan in the future.

Tsk, bastard lady, there is another life-threatening!

I kicked my legs and lay on the turf. The new lady brought back old memories, and I remembered the long-lost time.Whose ancestors have not been rich?My ancestors also had high-ranking officials of the third rank, but they were high-ranking officials of the previous dynasty in eight lifetimes.

The imperial court has changed, and the feathers attached to the birds have also fallen to the ground. Once the official hat is taken off, they are no longer nobles but peasants.Of course, the grandparents are hard-spoken and easy-going, always insisting that the family is a clean stream of half-farming and half-studying, and they are very rich.

But the ancestors never expected that there would be a bad shoot in the bamboo forest in Qingliu - my father.He had long forgotten the arrogance of the literati, and he was so focused on flattering the nobles that he stayed away from home all day long.The house is run entirely by my mother and I. There are two elders who are bedridden and unable to move, and there are younger brothers who are waiting to be fed.

My mother is a haunted ghost, and she doesn't dare to breathe when she is outside. She often "enthusiastically" helps people wash clothes and tidy up the yard.When I got home, all the grievances in my heart were poured on me, beating and scolding.

My parents are first-class assholes, so how can I be a doormat?I have my own picks, but I have never been ruthless.Until one day and night, I found this couple in the corner of the wall, planning to sell me to a fool at the entrance of the village as a wife for a dime.

I was so angry that I stole the copper coins my father hid in the mouse hole the next night and prepared to flee to the city.Unexpectedly, these two couples were on guard against me, and they were caught with all the stolen goods.

It was a good fight, and everyone was injured.

There is no way to let this matter go, either I was tied up by them and sent to the fool's house, or my mother was beaten to a hemiplegia by my unfilial daughter.Our family was flying like cats and dogs, and the idiot's family couldn't stop. The idiot went to the river and drowned, and the marriage naturally fell through.

My father scolded me for losing money, and went to the city to collect the few copper coins left in the monk's family.After a few days, he ran back again, with joy on his brows, and bought me my favorite sugar pills, acting like a loving father.

She was originally a draft pick in Beijing Zhongkai, and my father's perennial flattery really helped. A nobleman thought of him as a dog, and wanted to promote him, and gave my family a chance to participate in the election.Here I also want to thank the ancestors, if the ancestors hadn't worked hard to earn the title of Qingliu, no matter what, it would not be my family's turn.

My father, a bastard, has always lived by selling the face of his ancestors. He will not be peaceful when he dies underground, and he will always be dug up by his children and grandchildren to embarrass him.

People who are used to living a poor life, if they find a chance to get out of this quagmire, how can they not seize it?Even if it is very likely to be Huangliang Yimeng, I would like to fly moths to the flame and give it a try.

Facing the loess and back to the sky for a lifetime?I don't want to be sold by my parents for a few pennies and go to someone else's house to continue working as an old scalper in the field.

On the eve of parting, my mother took me and babbled about Che Zhilu, how sorry I was, and let me enter the palace to take care of my body and take care of myself.But for my casual listener, there is only one sentence she said sincerely, and she will not forget my mother when she becomes prosperous in the future.

I thought to myself, when I get rich in the future, I will never look back.

Entering the palace is not only a dream of parents, but also mine.

The broken dream only lasts for a moment, how did we ever know that it would be difficult to see the emperor?The first difficult body test knocked me off the horse.

A beautiful woman requires a body that is as beautiful as pearls and jade, without any trace or blemish.I grew up in the farmland, and my body was covered with major injuries and minor injuries, like a rotten mattress.The medical examination aunt frowned when she saw me, and she didn't even take off her clothes like the others. She squinted and swept across my old bark-like hand, and waved me back.

My hanging heart fell to the ground, and I suddenly felt a sense of relief. In just a few days of traveling to the imperial court, it was only enough for me to see a scaly claw, and a glimpse of the golden bricks and jade tiles, which is already frightening.

I'm already scared, my family is richer than those two idle books, and I read a sentence once, my heart is higher than the sky -

Life is thinner than paper.

Shocked, I looked around the blue tiles and red walls, and finally heard thousands of people shouting silently——

Run away.

I want to escape, but it is not easy for the imperial court to come in, and it is even more difficult to get out. My life is like a straw, so how can I let the Noonday Gate open for me?

Those who failed the election were assigned to study as court ladies, and I learned the rules for two years and was assigned to Chen Guiren at the time as a third-class court lady.I do some sanitation daily, and the monthly money is not much, but it is enough for me to live out of the palace after saving for a few years.

She has long since lost the ridiculous ambition of turning a bird into a phoenix, and she only counts the days until she leaves the palace after ten years, or marry a woman, or twist her hair to become a sister-in-law.

It would be great if it could go smoothly like this, but the lives of the court ladies are not my own. From the moment they are distributed to their masters, my life is no longer in my hands. When the wind holds the candle, you can't be yourself.

Let me be careful with every step, stay low and be small, no one will be able to escape if the master and wife commit a crime.Chen Guiren has been infertile for a long time, and he has a wrong heart, and has an affair with the guards to confuse the royal blood, which is a serious crime to punish the nine clans.

Chen Guiren's whole family was in trouble, and we servants couldn't get it right, and the maids who served him were all killed with sticks.The rest will be punished with [-] rods, or assigned to the clothing bureau, or sent to the cold palace.

Life in the cold palace was tough, I didn’t have enough food and clothing, and I did more work than anyone else. At night, I lay on the hard bed, and the musty smell of decay pierced my nose and mouth.The wound on my body hurts like a fire, and it is strange to taste some warmth in the scorching heat and cold winter.The wound was in unbearable pain, so he could only lie on his stomach and stab Chen Guiren, a villain.

During the tough days, it was all thanks to Zha Chengui, a villain, to survive.

There is only one good thing in the Lenggong. Without a concubine on my head, my life can barely be held in my own hands.

How is it now, a mistress is sent from the sky, the previous mistress took half of my life, what about this one now?

Although I haven't met this lady yet, because of my dissatisfaction with the previous master, I have already reserved two points of resentment.At this time, Qi Guan suddenly leaned over and tugged at my cuff, his eyes were eager and flustered, I thought he was going to say something sarcastic again, and he put his hands behind his head and said foolishly: "What kind of empress is he? It has to be coiled, even a tiger has to lie down, otherwise..."

Suddenly a cold female voice came from the top of the head, "I will disturb my aunt from that day on."

My heart skipped a beat, and I slowly got up from the ground, the blue clouds in the sky floated to the edge of the fragrant thorn bushes at some point, and I just made such immoral and rebellious words, most of which were heard by the master and empress.I bowed my knees and saluted, with my head lowered, "Your servant dare not, your empress forgive me."

The master of the cold palace really has nothing to be afraid of, the imperial court is deep, and countless women have been killed.And the most yin qi is the cold palace. Every year, there are countless noble ladies who are wrapped in straw mats and no one knows.

The new master chuckled, and his voice was low, like the sound of ancient clumsy strings, "I didn't intend to disturb my aunt's leisure, but I was stupid and lost my way accidentally. I don't know if my aunt knows where Cuiwei Garden is?"

aunt?I couldn't help but sneered, how could I get along with my aunt?After laughing, I secretly disdain, another smart person.Among the women who were sent here in the past, there were also women like her, who were like Qiao at the beginning, and refused to spoil their own demeanor, but it was a pity that they couldn't pretend for half a month.Knowing that they will never be able to step out of the limbo again, they all reveal the undertones of madness.

But more of them came to the cold palace and still couldn't let go of the master's money, bossing around and picking and choosing, and not long after offending all kinds of local snakes, they were made to live like death and complained endlessly.Some are like walking corpses, weeping all day long, as if their parents are dead.

I have a bad feeling for her, and I don't like her anyway.

Suddenly a radiant white light came into view, and when I looked up, it turned out to be a huge suet jade hanging in front of my eyes.

Obediently, my pupils contracted, I tapped the jade face lightly with my fingertips, and the warmth came through my palm.God!I clenched my fingers tightly and exclaimed again.Qi Guan beside me was breathing more and more heavily. If I didn't know it was Qi Guan, I would have thought it was a buffalo.

It's strange, why the most pretending dog leg in the weekdays was stunned for a long time and didn't respond. I secretly wondered, is this kid Qi Guan crazy?

Official Qi kept silent but I couldn't help it anymore, I had to see what kind of monster this rich lord with suet jade pinned to his waist was.

The line of sight keeps moving up from the suet jade at the waist, the blue skirt, the narrow green sleeves, and finally a pair of smiling eyes.

I felt dizzy all of a sudden, and I felt dizzy one after another. When I came back to my senses, I looked at the bewildered Qi Guan like a big buffalo who could only pant.

Good-looking, I can read a few words, have read a few books, I am much better than Qi Guan who can only shrink his nose sharply, at least I can say a few words, what is so beautiful about it.

She gave birth to a pair of cut water autumn pupils, the water is shining, looking at it from a distance, it is as bright as the sun rising in the morning glow; when observing it by force, it is as bright as a flower coming out of Lubo.

Eyebrows and eyes are far away, locking up three thousand clear autumns and three thousand snows.

Originally she had an extremely cold appearance, but she always had a smile in her eyes, like an ancient and clumsy long piano, gentle and serious.

Guqin spoke again, oh no, it's the lady, "Seeing that my aunt seems to like this jade pendant, I saw this for the first time today and gave it to my aunt as a meeting gift, I hope my aunt will not give it up."

"This, this, this..." I was so shocked that I couldn't speak. I couldn't say anything for a long time, my heart was beating like a drum, and my mind was blanked by the phrase "Give it to my aunt."

Qi Guan's son came to his senses now, and wanted to pick up the jade pendant with red eyes.I kicked him on the ground, and snatched the mutton fat jade for fear that the local rich man would repent.I don't have much knowledge, how can He De get in touch with such strange things?Immediately forgetting about the rich man, holding the jade pendant and smiling silly, Qi Guan rubbed his waist and stood up, ignoring the grass clippings, and watched together with me.

Exclaimed from time to time.

The empress has been waiting, never impatient.

After reading it, I patted off Qi Guan's pig's trotters, carefully put away the jade pendant, and put it in the interlayer of my underwear.Under Qi Guan's resentful gaze, he took his wife to Cuiwei Garden.

With short hands, I have received great benefits, and my attitude along the way can be described as extremely flattering, and I know everything without saying anything.

This empress is a bit strange, she doesn't ask about food and clothing, she is only interested in soil, under my weird gaze, empress smiled shyly, and explained: "I used to be a farmer. Seeing that the land here is sparsely populated, the land It's so wasteful, I want to plant some flowers and plants."

Different people have different fates!My family also farms, so why can I be the empress while I can only serve tea and water to my master.Thinking of this, I complained about my father and mother, who didn't make me look better.It is really a crime of wanting to add it, there is no reason to worry about it, no matter how hard my family is born, it will not be able to produce a daughter like my mother.

When we arrived at Cuiwei Garden, it was dilapidated and covered with cobwebs, so we had to clean up the inside and outside.I am used to doing farm work, and my hands and feet are nimble, and I worked even harder after collecting mutton fat jade. I cleaned up most of it within two days, and I could barely live in people.

What is surprising is the empress, she is also surprisingly efficient at her work, she never puts money on the boss, she can do what she can do, and she can give me something if she can't.

We moved into Cuiwei Garden, I had another place to live, but after much deliberation, the mean person who lives with me is not as easy to get along with as my wife, I have to look after my mother to avoid her money being coaxed away!

Facts have proved that in the past, women lived like ghosts in the cold palace because they had no money. As long as they had money, they could live well anywhere.As the saying goes, money can make ghosts turn the millstone, and money can naturally open the door to buying eunuchs.

I always change into men's clothes and go out to buy some things for my mother. Most of them are mortars, millstones, medicinal materials, etc., and they are not valuable things.The empress is like a fairy in the sky who doesn't eat fireworks in the world, doesn't know the price of goods, and always gives me pearls, jade, porcelain, and gold ornaments.

So happy!

Later, when I thought about those days, the empress might not know the price, she just gave it to me because she saw that I liked it.

I was born in the mud, with poor roots, love of money, greed, and always love to take advantage of small things, what a shameful bad habit, but my mother can always tolerate me and forgive me.How can such a person make me unhappy?

One day I came back late, and when I walked to Cuiwei Garden, I was suddenly stopped by a black shadow that appeared out of thin air. I was quickly restrained, and the carrying basket was also taken away. They checked the small items one by one, and after confirming that they were correct, the carrying basket was placed on the ground , disappeared into the night.

I looked at the Cuiwei Garden sleeping in the night and was lost in thought. My shoulders were sore and swollen, and I cried out suddenly. My shoulders didn't hurt, but my heart hurt.I don't understand why such a good lady is not allowed to be free like me. She shouldn't stay in the imperial court and be watched by others.

When the empress heard the movement, she hurried over with a lantern. She put her coat on me, gently smoothed my messy temple hair, and asked me what happened.

I choked up and said, "It's just a fall."

I was originally a selfish ghost who didn't love my parents but myself, but now I have a second love.

I used to want to save more money and go out of the palace to live a good life, but now I have delusional thoughts and want to take my mother to live a good life together.
