Han Ling was the cousin of Concubine Ke Shu since childhood. He had admired Concubine Ke Shu as soon as she was about to go to the palace. Unfortunately, Concubine Ke Shu had already fallen in love with Emperor Jingheng at that time. Although Han Ling was handsome, gentle and gentle, he was just a civil servant. Although he was from a family, he was naturally far behind Emperor Jingheng.

Since Concubine Ke Shu entered the palace, Han Ling rarely saw her again. Now, when she received her invitation, she was very surprised, but she still came as promised. When she saw her, she even felt that her cousin was beautiful and could be called a country-willed.

Concubine Ke Shu was a famous beauty when she was in the boudoir. Now she is the first of the four concubines who are the most favored by the Six Palaces, so she is naturally even more beautiful and luxurious. Seeing Han Ling, who was wearing a green robe, kneeling to salute him, she hurriedly said, "Why should you and me be so polite?"

Han Ling sat down with a smile. He looked at this cousin quietly and admired her peerless appearance. But he still felt regretful in his heart: If she had not entered the palace back then, what kind of fairy couple would they be now... "The Empress was joking, and the rules should still be followed. It is inappropriate for me to be a foreign minister. If she was rude, she would really make people laugh at me."

But for Concubine Ke Shu, who regards secular ethics as nothing, Han Ling is too rigid. Even her fiancé is also, who only knows how to patriotism, love the country and the family, and puts her lovers and children backwards. In this case, why should she marry someone who cannot put herself first and cannot consider everything for herself? The rules are not determined by people, so why can't she change it? Concubine Ke Shu was unwilling to be surprised, but she still smiled on her face. There is no way, now that she has something to ask for, so naturally she can't put the high-ranking score.

What she likes most in her heart was Emperor Jing Heng, because among these excellent men, Emperor Jing Heng was disdainful of her. The ones she couldn't get were always the best, and this is true. Perhaps one day, she would really become Emperor Jing Heng's favorite as she wished. At that time, she would feel that the palace was cold and deserted, without humanity, and the emperor could not spoil her alone, so it would be better to leave and wander around the world.

The most important thing is that while she likes Emperor Jing Heng, she is reluctant to let her cousin fiancé and leader Li Wuhou. In Concubine Ke Shu's idea, men can have three wives and four concubines, but why can't women not have three husbands and four servants? Since they all like her, why don't they live in peace for her? This is what Concubine Ke Shu's thoughts in her heart, and she never told anyone else. Because she knew that in this feudal and conservative society, no one would understand her.

But she has to work hard for this goal. Could it be that over the years, her performance among these men has been false? Of course, it is not. Concubine Ke Shu thinks that she has given her true love and really liked them when she likes them, that is enough. If some of them are unwilling to recognize such a person and are unwilling to be with such a person, she will not worry, because this just means that they treat her, and in fact, it is just like this.

"Cousin, I'm here to ask you to do me a favor today." Concubine Ke Shu called herself "me" specifically, just to awaken Han Ling's beautiful memories of her and to remember how happy they had been together before. "You will definitely help me, right? Since childhood, only cousin, you love Lan'er the most and treat Lan'er the best."

Lan'er is the nickname of Concubine Ke Shu, and all the elders in the family call her like this. Among the men she knew, Han Ling had been with her for the longest time and had the deepest feelings, so as soon as Lan Er appeared, Han Ling's black eyes flashed, as if she was really touched. Seeing this, Concubine Ke Shu continued to work hard: "This deep palace can eat people, Lan Er is here, helpless. Although her father is a high-ranking Duke Ding and holding a million troops, she is still out of reach and cannot care about me. Cousin, if you don't help Lan'er, Lan'er will be forced to death here today!" As she said that, she sobbed gently, and crystal clear tears fell down her pink cheeks just right, dripping onto her skirt, which is adorable.

However, she was born gorgeous and outstanding since childhood, like a ball of fire, never showing weakness. Now that she suddenly showed such a posture, she seemed a little out of character. At least Han Ling woke up from her language, and he deeply realized that the woman in front of him was no longer his cousin. But he still looked gentle and caring: "So what do you want to do?"

Concubine Ke Shu was bewitched by his gentle expression and did not notice the coldness in his words: "Cousin, I just want to ask you to help me. If you are in a high position, you will definitely be able to help me." As he said that, he put his plan in Han Ling's ear and said it gently.

When Han Ling heard this, his face was as normal, but his eyes were shocked. Just because the emperor favored a female official, she asked him to find the female official's family, silence them all, and win the trust of the female official, so that he could use it for his own use!

The innocent and lovely cousin in my memory once became like this?!

Han Ling was in a state of confusion. He really didn't know what to do. After thinking for a while, he responded vaguely and stood up to say goodbye. He kept hesitating on the way back. He never could do this. Not to mention that this was harmful to the will of heaven. Just say that the female official was favored by the emperor. If something happened to his family, how could the emperor not blame it? This little thing for the sake of a woman to win favor was really not worth it. However, if he didn't help this, his cousin would be struggling in the palace... Suddenly, Han Ling was very entangled.

He didn't think about it. Is Ding Guo Duke not more suitable than him for such busyness? Even though he could give it to Ding Guo Duke, Concubine Ke Shu gave it to him. How could he really treat him as his family? She knew that she wanted to preserve the power of Ding Guo Duke so that she could firmly sit in the position of her favorite concubine, and how could she put herself in her shoes for him?

As he walked, Han Ling found that he had been separated from the eunuch who was leading the way and turned into a small garden.

This small garden was built on the Imperial Garden. There are not as many flowers as the Imperial Garden, but it is also full of fragrance and fragrant. Looking at the small bamboo forest in front of you, coupled with the cool breeze, it is really unspeakable to feel comfortable. This beautiful scenery slowly calmed down Han Ling's impatient heart. He thought about it carefully and could not do this. I am afraid that he would let down his cousin's full expectations.

As early as when Concubine Ke Shu refused him, Han Ling thought that if he could not stay with her in this life, he would have to protect her for the rest of her life. But now, he realized that he was not as omnipotent as he imagined. Many times, he could not help but make a choice.

Seeing that there was a stone table and several stone benches in the bamboo forest, Han Ling walked over, sat down, leaned on the table, and listened to the wind with his eyes closed. This was the inner courtyard of the palace, and it was really inappropriate for him to stay here, but he wanted to stay here for a while. At this moment, suddenly, a whisper came from the flowers not far behind him.

Although Han Ling was a civil servant, he had also studied martial arts since he was a child. Although he was not as good as the guard of the great inner guard, he was also called a top-notch master. Although the whisper was small, he could hear it clearly, especially the wind, which seemed to be in his ears.

"...Hey, I said, do you know? I have been serving the bedtime female official Qinghuan these days!"

"I heard from someone yesterday that Your Majesty is not close to women. Everyone thought... I didn't expect that now, now... Hehe." The woman laughed and felt a little embarrassed. "It's so shameful, shameful! I heard from the sisters of the Golden Palace that the female official Qinghuan is so ~ I can't see it anymore. Your Majesty looks mature and steady, but he is really fierce in bed~"

"Oh! How could you say such a little hoof! I'm going to tell the nanny and let her punish you!"

"Hmph, don't you want to lie to me. Don't you want to be kind to Your Majesty? These days I have looked at the female official Qinghuan from afar. Your Majesty is so fond of her. Even if you have to sleep with her at night, you can't live without her for a moment!"

"Oh... I'm so envious! If one day I can have the opportunity to be a female official in Qinghuan, I'm really willing to die..."

"Shh!" The palace maid suddenly covered the mouth of the previous palace maid, "Be careful! Be careful! You can't say this nonsense! Do you want to be filled into the dry well of the cold palace?"

“…dry well? What dry well?!”

"Ah... I forgot, you don't know about this." The palace maid sighed lightly, and her tone also showed fear and anxiety. "Zhu Cai, do you recognize Zhu Cai?"

"I know, isn't she from the palace of Concubine Shu? What's wrong? What does it have to do with her?"

"I heard... Not long ago, she was lucky by the emperor!"

"What?! I don't believe it!"

"Believe it or not, you haven't seen her these days, right? Because after that day, she was ordered by Concubine Shu to give her a shit and beat her to death by sticks, and thrown into the dry well of the cold palace!"

"Ah...you, don't scare me!"

"Who scares you! I'm a puppy! Over the years, there are few people in the palace from time to time, and some are still concubines who have been granted the title. Why do you think this is all? It's all done by Concubine Shu! Anyone who has something to do with His Majesty, even if the Majesty accidentally glances at him a few more times, she will kill the person!"

"Ah? Concubine Shu is so cruel? But...but she looks very good!"

"This person should not behave like a person. In front of His Majesty, Concubine Shu will naturally show her best side. But there is no need to do it afterwards. This really makes us palace ladies... Don't you know? Liu Qing, who is beside Concubine Shu, have you seen her these days?"

"That's really not."

"Because Your Majesty favors the female official Qinghuan, Concubine Shu had nowhere to vent, so she vented her anger on Sister Liu Qing. She was so pretty that she would vent more and less inhaled in one night! You said! In the future, if you have nothing to do, don't go to Concubine Shu, it's better not to get close to the people in Concubine Shu's palace. We are good sisters, and you have just entered the palace, so I remind you that if it were someone else, I wouldn't care!"
