Being chosen in the palace selection is a fate no Eight Banner girl can escape.
Her mother was once a senior palace maid in Consort De's household. She witnessed the power struggles of the Kangxi Emperor's court and the secret battles in the harem, and knew how dangerous the inner palace could be. So she trained her daughter strictly from a young age. If she was ever selected to enter the palace, she should not hope to reign supreme in the harem, only to protect herself and live a peaceful life. But fate had other plans. Her father was convicted of a crime and executed, her mother was exiled to Yili, and she was sent into the palace as a bondservant under her family's criminal status.
The battles in the harem are no less fierce than those at court.
She truly felt the lingering grievances of the Kangxi era. The vicious schemes of the Yongzheng Emperor's consorts left her shaken with fear. By the Qianlong era, she was deeply caught up in them.
Her hatred: My heart is troubled, yet I suppress my will; I endure blame and insults.
The emperor was unwise, and her father was framed by a villain and died. To avenge him, she secretly aided a wicked consort.
Her resentment: Pages filled with self-pity and plain grievances, but who can understand a single word of my autumn sorrow?
Those who seemed to treat her kindly were only using her as a pawn. Had they ever truly considered what she wanted?
Her hope: Long confined in a cage, I can return to nature once more.
Her greatest wish was to escape this living hell, see the mountains and rivers, and become a person with warmth in her heart.
Her regret: Though I did not kill Boyi, Boyi died because of me.
Her hands were not stained with blood, yet she was surrounded by a host of wronged souls. Though she did not believe in ghosts or gods, she could not escape the torment of her conscience.
Entering the palace at the age of eight, she endured a court life with no end in sight. Finally, exhausted in body and mind, she chose: "My body sinks to the river's icy depths, my soul becomes willow fluff. When spring comes, I'll fly over the eastern wall."
Her death could save her sisters' lives, foil the Empress Dowager's schemes, and make the person she loved remember her forever. No one would ever be able to compete with her again, nor could anyone ever win against her.
Hello, author ~ I am the editor of Ruonian Girl Network under Kujiang. Com ~ I like your articles very much and would like to ask if you are interested in posting on our website ~
This bed sheet is rolling, hahaha
Change your literary name. This name is neither headline-grabbing nor literary.
Dada's writing style is profound, and the ancient style is rarely so charming. Dada will go to the forum to promote it, and I wish Dada's achievements will shine as soon as possible.
I also came from the forum. Da Da has deep writing skills and a strong flavor of ancient sayings. My shortcomings are scheming. I can only write mindless articles. Da Da, I admire you. Please support me. (☆_☆)
Coming from the forum, I am surprised that I have written such a long article, but the clicks are not satisfactory. Logically speaking, it should not be so cold. Didn't I make it to the new list?
The heroine is so young and has so many scheming thoughts. Will she become very bad in the future?
Very attentive... I don't have much time to read, but I still keep reading. Still: ↖(^ω^)↗Come on!
Can the author release all the manuscripts? I saw on my phone that the author had saved a lot of manuscripts, and I was anxious to read the rest.
↖(^ω^)↗Come on!
