Leisure days in the cold palace

Chapter 9 Reversing Black and White

The ** where I live has three wives and nine concubines. These levels are not much different from the system of the Jin Dynasty in ancient China.

The titles of the three wives are concubine, madam, nobleman, and the original Li Shuangwu was that lady.

The third wife is somewhat similar to the three concubines after the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Their status in the palace is extremely high, only a little bit lower than that of the empress. When the nine concubines meet, they need to pay a big gift.

The original Li Shuangwu was such a character, but she suddenly fell from such a high place to the icy cold palace.Under such a gap, it is understandable that Li Shuangwu committed suicide in shame and indignation.

I once heard Chunxi say that the current emperor has just ascended the throne not long ago, only in his early twenties, so the position of empress is still vacant.Before the original Li Shuangwu was thrown into the cold palace, the three wives were naturally the best candidates to compete for the position of queen.

Among these three people, Qi Guifei is the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister, and Rong Guiren is the successor of the Great General. Only Li Shuangwu came out of the palace alone, with no one to rely on.

Sometimes when I think about it, I can't help but feel that the owner of the body is really interesting. I don't know how pure her mind is, so that she can feel that only relying on the favor of one person in the world can make it to the top.

Without anything to rely on, it is like a bamboo pole standing on the ground. If there is no surrounding support, it can only wait for the fate of falling down.

This is Li Shuangwu's tragedy, and sometimes listening to Chunxi slowly talk about it, it always feels like a world away.

Because that's not me after all.

But who let me inherit her body and have a chance to live again.Perhaps it was as a price, so all the past and past events related to this body were pressed heavily on me...

When I saw Mrs. Rong, she was wearing a ten-thousand-dollar silk silk, sitting gracefully and luxuriously on a walking chariot.

I know this is a way for her to demonstrate to me, and now she is the only one who can ride a chariot in the palace, except for the emperor I have never met.

In the past, Li Shuangwu also had this kind of honor, but the scenery and prosperity were gone now.

Looking at her radiant appearance at this time, I felt a little bit puzzled in my heart. My experience is the first, and now that she is all powerful, doesn't she feel that she is too tall?
"Ben Gong and Shuang Wuqing are sisters, Luo Xiang, I ordered you to come here to ask about the theft of the internal treasury, why do you look like this now?"

Mrs. Rong is indeed not someone who waits for nothing. After she entered the door, she saw that the situation was different from what she had expected, but she calmed down and said these words calmly.

Don't look at the simplicity of the words, but the word "Shuangwu" is used naturally, "love the same sisters" but not sisters, which implicitly points out my current identity - a person who is not favored by the emperor and beaten Just a woman in the cold palace.

When she was speaking, everyone in the courtyard had already prostrated themselves to the ground, respectfully as if they were meeting a god.

Chunxi also understood the meaning of Rong Guiren's words, and after a moment of hesitation, she bit her lip and knelt down.

Ever since, I was the only one standing in the room.

Chunxi turned her head to look at me, and reached out to grab my sleeve, but she withdrew her hand after thinking about it for a while.

Maybe he is afraid of my feelings, but after all, I am not the original Li Shuangwu, so why would I care about these things.

"Congratulations, Mr. Rong!"

Amidst the people's prayers, I also gave a blessing to the honored person on the chariot, and I was like the light.

"Sister, why should you be so polite? You and Ben Gong sat next to each other in the past, regardless of each other, how intimate and happy. Now this situation is certainly not what I want. If my sister is more polite, how can I feel at ease?"

Although Rong Gui came from a family of military generals, he didn't have the valiant martial temperament in his body at all. Instead, he was like a lady of a family who inherited poetry and etiquette, and his words and deeds were extremely polite.She looked into my eyes and said these words leisurely, those burning eyes seemed to see through my heart.

In fact, she is only in her early twenties. It is too modest to call a face beautiful, but it is a bit too much to call it beautiful. I don't know whether the emperor in his twenties likes her, but no matter what , relying on her father's power, she can always maintain a life of prosperity, wealth, peace and happiness.

But it's different to win the second place. Once you enter this muddy water, it will be a contest for the entire court.

In her eyes, I am naturally just a loser who was defeated by her feet, but how could she know that in my eyes, no matter how high she is, she is just a poor person who is deep in the swamp without knowing it.

"Even if sisters are deeply affectionate, the rules in the palace must always be followed. What's more, the younger sister's status is not what it used to be. These etiquettes should always be fulfilled."

Since she said that I don't need to be polite, I naturally follow suit.Standing up straight, I smiled at her.

A look of astonishment flashed across her face, I think she was very puzzled, why would a person who was arrogant and domineering even want to end his own life as soon as he came to the cold palace listen to her so calmly now insinuating, but not angry?

How did she know that I am Liu Changqing, not Li Shuangwu.

After all, he is a very well-mannered person, and the astonishment on Rong Guiren's face disappeared in an instant.She was assisted and slowly walked down from the chariot, with a lovely smile on her lips, but eyes full of scrutiny when she looked at me.

"I heard that Leng Gong is miserable, and my sister almost killed herself a few days ago. If it wasn't for the maid Chunxi who rescued me, I'm afraid now..." Sure enough, she punched again after the blow was missed, but she said this very well. After a pause, he smiled again after a while and said, "Look at me, it's really not easy for us sisters to meet each other. My sister also knows the rules in this palace. I don't know that it's difficult for you to enter and leave the cold palace. Sister, you also need His Majesty's personal approval. Even this time, I have been begging His Majesty for a long time before I got this opportunity."

Oh, it's really clever.

Rong Gui secretly pointed out the difference in identities between the two of us in almost every sentence, trying to stimulate me with words.

There is also the phrase "I have been begging His Majesty for a long time", who doesn't know that the saddest thing about a person who has been thrown into the cold palace is that he will be forgotten by the emperor, and this man completely forgot that he once had such a woman.

They deliberately sent the original Li Shuangwu to the cold palace, how could they mention this name in front of the emperor now?Such words to lie to a three-year-old child came from her mouth, naturally just to annoy me.

If it was the original Li Shuangwu who was listening to these words, she might not be able to bear it anymore, and would start swearing.But unfortunately, her opponent is me, Liu Changqing.

Those who prostrated themselves on the ground did not get her permission, so they bowed for a long time.This young woman showed her majesty with such behavior, and she also kept trying to stir up waves in my heart with words.

Although I am not a person of this era, I will always understand some things. Offending Luo Xiang may make me suffer, but once I offend the powerful Rong Rong, I am afraid that Chunxi and I will die without a place to die.

"My sister used to be confused for a while, but after going through life and death, she really understands some things, and she won't do such stupid things again. I also want to thank you for your concern."

I said these words in a calm manner. Anyway, under this kind of confrontation, I can only see the tricks.

In fact, I am not afraid of others seeing that my temperament is different from the previous Li Shuangwu. After life and death, my temperament has changed drastically. Everything is just a cloud.

Mr. Rong seemed to be thinking of the person who was worshiping beside him at this time, and he calmed down casually.

Everyone agreed, and I supported Chunxi to stand up, and Luo Xiang, supported by his group of young men, stood up with bared teeth.

I understand that there will be a good show today, and it has just begun.

"Your Majesty, please make the decision for the little ones!"

As I expected, Luo Xiang knelt down in front of Ronggui with a miserable appearance, and began to accuse us of blood and tears for him with snot and tears: "Ronggui, I have honored you He politely came to ask about the theft of the inner treasury bank. But Li Shuangwu's master and servant not only refused to cooperate, but also forcefully drove the little ones out of the house. The little ones said all the good things, but still nothing No use at all... Your Majesty now has the trust of His Majesty, and you are starting to clean up the internal treasury. The younger ones have always received your great kindness, and you have orders, so how dare you not do your best? So After all this back and forth, a dispute finally arose... Li Shuangwu's master and servant beat and kicked the younger ones first, and the younger ones thought, after all, she used to be the master, and her identity was different from ours, so she didn't Dare to hide and dare not fight back. But we also reported your name afterward, but Li Shuangwu said, but said..."

"What did you say?" Rong Gui looked at me, but the words in his mouth were unhurried and asked Luo Xiang, just like the dialogue in a play: "No matter what it is, you can say it anyway, I deter you from guilt."

"Yes!" Luo Xiang looked back at me pretending to be careless, and said in a trembling voice: "Li Shuangwu said, 'When you Ronggui met me before, you didn't dare to say a word or take a step. Now I just lost power for a while, and she is so arrogant in front of me, really, it is... a dog's power!"

After finishing speaking, Luo Xiang immediately showed a frightened look, and bowed lowly to the ground.

"Luo Xiang! Don't spout blood!" Chunxi, whom I was supporting, was already trembling with anger, and couldn't help screaming at this moment: "Who hit my face? Don't open your eyes and talk nonsense!"

Luo Xiang had already prepared a plan in his heart, so he was not at a loss at this time, but kowtowed at Rong Guiren again, and said: "The little one has to confess to Rong Guiren!"
