Xie Wanyi married Zhao Huaijin at the age of fourteen, and the young couple stayed together. Later, Zhao Huaijin ascended the throne as emperor, and she was named queen as his first wife.
Along with the decree to enfeoff the queen, there was also an edict to welcome the Xie family's legitimate daughter into the palace as a concubine.
Even though everyone knew that the new emperor had been in love with the legitimate daughter of the Xie family when he was young, they all lamented that Xie Wanyi had a good life.
She was born as a concubine, but now she can be the empress of the world. Even the legitimate daughter of the Xie family, who was famous in the capital at that time, can only be a concubine in front of her, which is really glorious.
They said that despite Xie Wanyi's humble background, the new emperor still insisted on making her a queen and made the legitimate daughter of the Xie family subordinate to her, which showed that the couple had a deep love for each other.
Xie Wanyi thought so too.
Until that day, she heard Zhao Huaijin say in the imperial palace that he had never regarded her as his wife and gave her a secondary position, but because she had been with him for ten years, he felt pity for her suffering.
That year, Xie Wanyi was twenty-four years old, and it had been ten years since she married Zhao Huaijin.
For ten years, she had been married to him, and she had been worrying about him day and night, because he had difficulty giving birth to a child during the war, and it was difficult for him to get pregnant again after a narrow escape, and the whereabouts of his only child was also unknown.
In the end, all she got in exchange was his mercy.
Since that day, the fourteen-year-old Xie Wanyi was buried in the palace forever, and the only survivor was the queen who was as cold as a jade statue.
She watched concubines being welcomed into the palace one after another, and Zhao Huaijin was born one after another, becoming the most virtuous and tolerant queen.
No matter how picky the historian or no matter how harsh the remonstrator, they could not say anything wrong with her.
Ten years later, the border was in turmoil, Zhao Huaijin went on a personal expedition, and Xie Wanyi became seriously ill and dying.
The palace walls were deep, locking up the joys and sorrows of her life.
The moment the oil ran out and the lamp dried up, Xie Wanyi felt relieved.
I thought to myself that if I have a next life, I will definitely find a husband who loves her with all his heart and eyes. He will never marry Zhao Huaijin or be the queen again...
*
She died too early and didn't see him coming thousands of miles in cold clothes and blood just to see her one last time.
I didn't know that Zhao Huaijin later gave up his glorious imperial career and prayed for an afterlife for her...
Intention: The world is full of fog, I hope to see through the true heart
