After wearing the book, Ben Gong lay down all the way to win

Chapter 667

In the eyes of these big families, a woman's status after marriage is generally determined by her natal family. As long as her natal family is strong enough, no one can shake her status.

On the contrary, those women who are concubines, because their family background is not strong, and their natal families have no backing to rely on, so they have to fight for favor with all their strengths, and keep climbing through the favor of their husbands, and their beauty is their best weapon.

Therefore, those big and prominent families don't pay much attention to beauty, and they also look down on women who rise to the top through beauty.

As the daughter of the Xia family, Ting Lan's family taught her how to be a good wife and a queen, but they didn't teach her how to use her beauty to win the favor of her husband, let alone talk about her beauty, which caused the pearl to be dusted. I will not be favored by the first emperor for a lifetime.

This is not only the sorrow of Ting Lan, but also the sorrow of all women in this era who are wives and queens.

Linglong couldn't help but think that there have been empresses in all dynasties who died unhappily, a large part of the reason is because of this.

Linglong sighed: "Of course my sister is extremely beautiful, but unfortunately the late emperor didn't see it, life is never lacking in beauty, but lacking the eyes to discover beauty."

Ting Lan smiled slightly, and said sourly: "Yes, life has never lacked beauty, but the lack of eyes to discover beauty. I thought I was only ordinary in appearance, but I never thought..."

"It's because of my status as empress that restrains me. I want to be favored by the late emperor, but I can't get it all my life. Now my heart is ashamed, but the emperor is so obsessed with me. He doesn't care about etiquette and ethics, and treats me carelessly."

"Linglong, do you know? The way the emperor looked at me just now is very similar to the way the late emperor looked at the concubine Yan, but he was even more obsessed and crazy than the late emperor. I have fantasized more than once that the late emperor could use such a Look at me, you can pamper me with the attitude of an emperor, but every time you fantasize, you get broken and cold again and again."

Her eyes were red, her expression became a little crazy, and her voice was like a torn piece of cloth: "Linglong, when the late emperor was alive, he couldn't see my beauty, neglected me, and made me stay alone in the empty boudoir. After the late emperor passed away, The emperor found my beauty, disregarding ethics and morals, and asked me to be his woman. It's ridiculous, really ridiculous. Is this my retribution? But I have never done anything harmful to the sky. Why did God play me like this? ?what is this?"

For a long time, Ting Lan's image in Linglong's heart has always been elegant, calm, and peaceful, like an orchid quietly blooming in a deep valley.

She had never seen Ting Lan like this before. It turned out that she also loved the late Emperor deeply and longed for the love of children, but she was firmly bound by the noble shackles of the empress, which delayed her whole life.

Linglong hurriedly pressed her shoulders, and said firmly: "Sister, it's not your fault, it's the late emperor's blindness to gold inlaid with jade, and mistaken pearls for fish eyes, he should be the one who regrets and suffers."

Ting Lan smiled bitterly: "Really?"

These two words were said lightly, followed by two lines of tears.

Having known each other for 30 years, Linglong has never seen Ting Lan so heartbroken.

Endless misery and sorrow flowed down the tears, scalding Linglong's arms and burning into her heart.

Linglong didn't say anything, just hugged her like this, and let her cry loudly.
