I am the most humble concubine in the Hou family. My biological mother died young and my aunt-in-law treats me like a piece of grass.
My sister-in-law has the reputation of being a talented woman, but she is actually a loser. During the imperial draft, they were afraid that my sister would enter the palace and die, so they forced me to enter the palace for my sister!
"If you don't go, throw your mother's tablet out and feed it to the dogs!"
I knelt before the spirit of my birth mother and kowtowed three times, then turned around and stepped into the deep palace of cannibalism.
In the first month after entering the palace, I used the remaining scraps of silver to bribe the eunuchs. Not to compete for favor, just to survive.
Three months after entering the palace, the emperor asked me about the strategy for border troubles, and I talked about it based on history. He was so amazed that he made an exception to stay the night.
Someone poisoned my meal? I will use the trick to let the poisoner eat it himself.
Someone bribed the imperial doctor to cause me to have an abortion? I set up a dragnet and waited for them to fall into it.
Concubine De Gui, Concubine Zhuang, Concubine Shu... One by one stepped on me to climb up, and in the end they all became withered bones under my feet.
In eleven years, from the substitute concubine to the queen of Zhou Dynasty. In nineteen years, from the queen to the queen mother who listens to politics behind the curtain.
They all say I'm lucky, only I know it——
In this deep palace, if you don't have an eye, you are blind. If you don't have a brain, you won't survive three episodes.
And I lived to the end.
