The Substitute Beauty, Beloved by the Six Palaces

[My real-life schedule has been too busy lately, so updates will be irregular. 4.16] Chu Qing has always heard that Emperor Jing, Chu Tingyue, is a tyrant: cruel beyond measure and merciless when his mood changes. As a beauty offered to him by an enemy nation, Chu Qing trembles with fear and wishes he could stay as far from him as possible. But somehow, he wins Emperor Jing's favor. Chu Tingyue spends every night in his Qingyan Palace. Others envy his boundless favor, but only he knows what a hellish life he leads. Chu Tingyue seems possessed. One day he wants to see him smile, the next he wants to see him cry. He even demands that he wear red and dance with a sword. If Chu Qing so much as resists, the emperor flies into a rage. He never knows whether tomorrow or beheading will come first. To stay alive, Chu Qing nervously fulfills every demand, only to be mocked: "A poor imitation." Chu Qing: … :) You're dead. . Three years ago, on the night of Emperor Jing's wedding, the Qianyuan Palace caught fire, and the new empress, Chu Yuanqing, perished in the flames. After that, Emperor Jing Chu Tingyue seemed like a different person. Chu Yuanqing became a forbidden subject. No one dared mention anything about Chu Yuanqing again. No one dared to provoke the emperor. Three years later, an enemy nation offers a beauty as a token of peace. He looks eight-tenths like Chu Qing, and even their names are nearly identical. Chu Tingyue originally intended to have him executed, but, as if possessed, he keeps him in the palace, searching for traces of Chu Yuanqing in him. When Chu Qing clumsily dances with a sword in red, Chu Tingyue knows once again, with absolute clarity, that he is not Chu Yuanqing. After tossing out the words "A poor imitation," Chu Tingyue turns on his heel and leaves. That very night, a spy risks his life to bring back a message: "Chu Qing is Chu Yuanqing." Not long afterward, palace attendants see the emperor, who had just left with a dark expression, return to Qingyan Palace. He knocks on the door, his eyes red and his voice hoarse. "Chu Qing, open the door... I was wrong." The only reply is "Get lost," followed by the sound of porcelain smashing against the door and shattering. Not long after that, Chu Tingyue, ruler of all under heaven, kneels outside Chu Qing's palace, reduced to utter humility. P.S. 1. The gong is younger than the shou by one day. 2.
