The Beloved Empress from a Humble Family

The imperial palace is as deep as the sea. Its women are like flowers, swaying and blooming in the lonely palace. Schemes and treachery, flashes of blades and swords, are no match for the splendor of your breathtaking smile! How can this shameless scoundrel, with skin as thick as a city wall, possibly be the wise and mighty emperor from all the stories? Heavens, can you at least let me enjoy myself? This young lady is absolutely stunning, breathtakingly beautiful. Anyway, I can't repay you for saving my life, so how about I offer myself to you? Your Majesty, I'm still young, barely thirteen. I haven't even had my first period, and you're nearly thirty. The Third Princess is as old as I am. Can you really bring yourself to do this? Ahahaha, my beloved consort is so beautiful, so wicked, and so adorable! Even though she's full of schemes, tricking one person and plotting against another, I still like her so, so much. What am I going to do? Qin Xuan: Zhaozhao, why do I feel like you've always been lukewarm toward me? You don't love me anymore? Rong Zhao: Congratulations, Your Majesty. You've finally faced reality! Qin Xuan: Rong Zhao, you ungrateful wretch! After all I've done for you, is there any man in the world more outstanding than me? If you don't like me, who could you possibly like? Rong Zhao: Please step aside, Your Majesty. I need to go throw up. Qin Xuan: Ah, what's wrong, Zhaozhao? Are you pregnant again? Rong Zhao: No, Your Majesty. You made me sick. Qin Xuan: ... Rong Zhao: Your Majesty, could you stop looking at me like that? Please take a good look at your own strapping, eight-foot-tall self. Have you forgotten you're not some neglected woman in the palace? Qin Xuan: Zhaozhao, you ungrateful wretch! Rong Zhao: There, there! Witness the legend of a poor-born legitimate daughter who rises from lowly palace maid to the pinnacle of the imperial harem!
