Pretty Fox: Misunderstood His Royal Highness

Chapter 542 New Year's Eve 5
Deng Xueer lowered her head and sighed.

She asked herself, if Yuan Qingluo was willing to marry her back then, if she had married him, and now that Yuan Qingluo has become like this, would she still love him like Ye Qiqi?
The answer is no.

She will not fall in love with a fool!Won't!

But marrying the emperor was not what Deng Xueer wanted.She is a concubine, her biological mother is a concubine, her status is low, and she cannot be favored by her father.I wish the queen would bring it up, the biological mother was voluntary, and the father couldn't ask for more, so he agreed in a hurry.

Deng Xueer is only 16 years old, and the emperor is 42 years old.

This is not important, the important thing is that now the emperor loves the imperial concubine Hu Qingmei, and only has Hu Qingmei in his eyes, how can he pretend to be other women?As long as Hu Qingmei was around, Deng Xueer would have no chance to stand out.

The most frightening thing is that the Yuan family dynasty of Nanyue Kingdom had a system of "burial of concubines".

People in Nanyue Kingdom believe that the soul is immortal after death, but it just goes to another world. In order to avoid the soul being lonely and helpless in the coffin, they put the loved ones or some things necessary for life, As a funeral accompanying the owner, this is an ultra-violent, ultra-abnormal, and ultra-cruel practice.

The so-called "burial of palace concubines" system: When the emperor dies, except for the queen, all concubines and concubines who have not given birth to children before his death have to be buried for him-the concubines and concubines are buried with the emperor, and the maids around them , was buried for them.

Deng Xueer has been in the palace for several months, and she only has two chances to sleep with her.

She was not lucky enough to conceive a dragon fetus during these two times of sleeping with her. If she failed to give birth to a son and a half daughter for the emperor, if the emperor died at that time, she might have to be buried for the emperor—not absolutely.

Under normal circumstances, it is the queen who decides which concubine and concubine will be buried for the emperor.The queen is not happy, even the concubine who gave birth to a child will find a reason to be buried for the emperor. live long.

After Ye Qiqi finished playing the zither, everyone also performed.

Because they have to watch the year, they are not allowed to sleep, and stay up late to welcome the arrival of the new year.The performers worked hard and the spectators were also in high spirits.

Hu Qingmei performed an exquisite dance; Deng Xueer played a piece of pipa, and the pipa she played was not inferior to everyone's performance.I saw her holding a straight-necked pipa vertically, pressing the strings with her left hand, and playing with five fingers with her right hand. She is skillful and free-spirited.

Ye Kexin also played a zither, Yuan Qingpu did not perform, he has never been interested in these games; Yuan Qingzhi played the lyre, while Helian Wuxie sang happily, it was a song from the Western Regions, and he did not listen He knew what he was singing, but his tone was cheerful and his voice was sweet, which won the applause of everyone.

Yuan Qingji plays the flute, and the melody of "Yangchun Baixue" is fresh, smooth, lively and brisk, expressing the scene of winter passing and spring coming, the earth recovering, all things flourishing, and a vibrant early spring scene; Yuan Qingcheng performs nunchucks...

At five watch, the cock crowed.

Not long after, the sky began to brighten up.The sound of firecrackers from far and near sounded, the sound on this side became weaker, and the sound on the other side sounded earth-shattering again, one after another, continuously.

Everyone stood up beamingly, saluted the queen mother, the emperor, and the queen, and blessed the queen mother in unison: "I wish the queen mother, the father (your majesty) and the mother (the empress) a long life and good health forever! The queen mother is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old! (Your Majesty) Long live, long live, long live! The queen mother (empress empress) is a thousand years old!"

A new year begins.
