The prostitute wait and see: the daughter is about to turn over

Chapter 210 The Sorrow of the Women in the Palace (2)

Hearing that the Queen Mother mentioned Concubine Li, Lan Ruoxi's heart skipped a beat.Concubine Li's death had something to do with her, if she hadn't been grounded by the emperor for punishing her that day, she wouldn't have collapsed so soon!
Now hearing what the Queen Mother said, dare the Queen Mother still think of Concubine Li in her heart, is this to seek justice for her?
The queen mother didn't wait for Lan Ruoxi to speak, and continued to say in a deep voice, "The people in this palace are just like the tea leaves in this teacup, they can't float too high. Too high, although they can see far away, there are many dangers. People When drinking tea, it is natural to first remove the tea leaves floating on the water, so the taller you stand, the easier it is to fall off."

"Now that Concubine Li is gone, no one collects this rootless water for Ai's family anymore. No one adds a cloak to Ai's family when it's cold." The Queen Mother's last words were filled with deep regret and heartache.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect.The emperor can sacrifice other people's lives for the sake of the country, but he can't erase the traces left by that person in his heart.Concubine Li has been in this harem for 20 years, and she has been living on the top of the waves for the past [-] years.If she just relied on the favor and indulgence of the emperor and queen mother, how could she have survived to this day.Over the years, how did she fight with those concubines in the harem, how did she eliminate dissidents and keep herself.But no matter how smart she is and how powerful she is.She is just a little bird clinging to the man's wings and struggling to survive. Once the wings are gone, her life will come to an end.

This is the sorrow of women in the palace, and it is also the sorrow of women under this feudal slavery system.

Therefore, Lan Ruoxi had already made a poisonous oath.She will never take such a path, she wants to control her own destiny in her own hands.

"My queen, please forgive me."

Except for this sentence, Lan Ruoxi didn't want to say too much, because the Empress Dowager knew about her disagreement with Concubine Li.If she still said a lot of good things about Concubine Li hypocritically at this time, then it would be too fake.A smart woman like the Queen Mother naturally saw through her tricks at a glance.

Therefore, she wisely chose to remain silent.

The Empress Dowager didn't seem to care what she said, and she put down the teacup after expressing herself.He looked outside, as if he was waiting for someone.

"It's getting late, and it's time for the crown prince to start choosing concubines. Let's go, Fu Ai's family goes to have a look. There hasn't been a newcomer in this palace for a long time, and Ai's family feels lifeless."

Lan Ruoxi hurried forward to support her, the queen mother was actually quite lonely.When the first emperor died, she was only 30 years old, and she had been a widow for decades.Alas, the best years are just wasted in this lonely deep palace.

Followed the queen mother to the imperial garden, the queen had already arrived.The ladies of the princes and nobles have already been waiting there, all of them are as beautiful as flowers, and they are all first-class beauties.

It's just that the right person who chooses the concubine has not come yet.

Lan Ruoxi looked around, as if all the ladies from the palaces had arrived.This palace is too deserted, and after a while, everyone will naturally join in the fun.

It's just that I don't know what the excitement will turn out to be!
Seeing that the crown prince had not arrived yet, the queen mother frowned slightly.Lan Ruoxi stood aside and watched her reaction, not daring to say a word.

"Why hasn't the prince come yet? He's old enough to not pay much attention to such important events. You also know that the prince is young, and his vision is different from ours. If he chooses a good one, he doesn't like it. No use." The Queen Mother said displeased.
