The Emperor indeed had a lot of concubines, because every three years, there would be a few outstanding beauties selected.
But this wasn't the time for the selection, so why would Noble Consort Su suddenly appear?
That person couldn't be Su Yun, right? But she actually publicly invited her to the palace. Was she planning to take revenge?
Perhaps, there were some devious ideas from another transmigrator waiting for her.
For this reason, Long Heng sent someone to investigate that Noble Consort Su. She turned out to be a refugee from Shu County.
Because she was walking on the road, the emperor took a fancy to her and brought her back to the palace. After the emperor favored her, she was immediately conferred the title of Noble Consort.
This story was simply an ancient version of Cinderella. If this girl wasn't as beautiful as a flower, how could she be chosen by the emperor who had seen countless beauties?
It was said that her name wasn't Su Yun, but Su Luo. She was indeed as beautiful as a fairy.
"There's a loophole in the story!"
"Oh?"
"Think about it, a woman as beautiful as a fairy came from Shu County to the capital, but she wasn't snatched by other men on the way. Isn't that amazing?"
"But that Su Yun's appearance has already been ruined by me. Could it really be her?"
"It seems that we can only meet her and see what her face looks like. Is it a disguise or is it real?"
"In any case, you can't hide. Be careful. Take a detoxification pill before you go."
"Okay."
She didn't expect Long Heng to be so thorough. But it was good to be prepared.
Bai Xiangxiu also felt that she should be fully prepared. She gathered all her energy and went to the palace.
Because it was a banquet hosted by a noble consort, men weren't allowed to enter the palace.
The old madam wasn't invited because the noble consort had clearly written on the letter that she only invited young women and women.
However, Bai Xiangxiu had an extra servant girl named Ah Song by her side today. Don't look at his slender and beautiful body, he was actually a man.
Of course, Xiao Shi didn't know his identity. She only knew that this person was sent by the Prince, so she kept staring at him.
Bai Xiangxiu discovered that she had made a dignified hidden guard, a man, shy from staring at him.
Her face actually blushed, and her eyes looked elsewhere from time to time.
Obviously, entering the Imperial Palace was a very depressing and stressful affair, but seeing their situation, she couldn't help but want to laugh.
"Wangfei, why does the corner of your mouth keep twitching?"
Xiao Shi asked curiously.
Bai Xiangxiu touched the corner of her mouth and said, "No, you're mistaken."
But in her heart, she was laughing like crazy. She always felt that the interaction between them was particularly interesting.
The Imperial Palace was a place that drove people crazy.
She was used to living in Li Of Gojoseon's residence. She always felt that this place was unusually uncomfortable.
This was especially true for a beauty like her. As soon as she entered, she received all kinds of strange gazes, as if she had come for the only man in the palace.
To be honest, her man was more than ten years younger than him and was more capable.
Even if her man was an ordinary scholar, she didn't want to abandon him to chase after such a man. There were too many wives, too many to count.
Which woman in the Imperial Palace didn't belong to him? He probably didn't even remember how many he had slept with and who he had slept with.
It was almost impossible for such a man to be faithful. As for separating his body from his heart, she also couldn't accept it.
Women also had needs. Don't treat them like wooden people, okay?
This was the thinking of modern people. So Bai Xiangxiu felt that if Su Yun was really that Noble Consort Su, then she definitely didn't really love the Emperor. She was just using him as a game character to capture him. Just like the female protagonists in some palace novels, she used men as tools to fight for power and didn't care about them at all.
When they arrived at the Imperial Palace, the guests first rested for a while before being brought to the Noble Consort's residence.
She didn't expect Noble Consort Su to be so favored. She was even more ostentatious than the Empress.
And from beginning to end, no one mentioned the Empress. It seemed that the distribution of power in the Imperial Harem was very strange!
Everyone walked in and sat down according to the arrangement. After a while, fruits and food were served. It was very exquisite.
After everyone sat down and said a few words, someone announced that the Noble Consort had arrived.
Then, they saw a young woman slowly walk in. Her appearance definitely didn't lose to Bai Xiangxiu's. She was about twenty years old. Although she was young, in this era where little lolis were getting married, she was considered old.
But it was undoubtedly the most attractive age for men because young women were too immature.
She secretly stared at her own chest. Although it had grown a lot after giving birth to Xiao Lin, because she was still young, there was still room for growth. So, based on her current appearance, it still wasn't as big as this beautiful Noble Consort's chest.
But, based on her appearance, she knew that she wasn't Su Yun. Perhaps it was a disguise.
But what kind of disguise technique could make someone look so good?
It was like someone had painstakingly drawn a masterpiece, but it was a bit different from the aesthetics of this era. Her face was a bit like the face of a snake spirit that was popular on the Internet.
Her chin was very sharp, her nose was very sharp, and her eyes …
Why did she feel that her eyes were a bit familiar, as if she had seen them somewhere before?
"Thank you for coming. This consort has prepared some wine and singing and dancing."
The voice was also a bit familiar, but she couldn't figure out who it was.
"Thank you, Noble Consort."
After everyone finished speaking, the singing and dancing came up. There was still a bit of a special shadow. It wasn't much, but it was very strange.
"Imperial Consort Li Of Gojoseon."
Noble Consort Su suddenly spoke. Bai Xiangxiu raised her head and smiled, "That's right."
Noble Consort Su smiled, "Rumor has it that Imperial Consort Li Of Gojoseon is a great beauty that everyone loves. Now that I've seen you, your beauty is truly enchanting."
"Noble Consort, you're too polite."
What the hell is Zhenzhen?
"You're not polite at all. This consort felt like we've known each other since the first time I saw you.
You're truly amiable, truly delightful. Why don't this consort acknowledge you as a younger sister? "
"This, how could this be a good match?"
What the hell is Zhenzhen?
"How could it be? This consort should be the one trying to reach out to you.
Isn't that right, everyone? Why don't you all be witnesses? This consort will acknowledge you as a younger sister. "
She stood up happily and said, "Bring wine, this consort wants to have a drink with my younger sister."
Someone brought wine and Noble Consort Su personally came to Bai Xiangxiu's side. Bai Xiangxiu could only stand up.
She really didn't want to acknowledge this older sister, but there was no other way.
She took the cup of wine and said, "Noble Consort, you're too polite."
After the two of them drank some wine, Imperial Consort Su grabbed her hand and whispered some insignificant things to her intimately.
She even had the misconception that she really didn't have any relationship with Su Yun.
However, Bai Xiangxiu still wanted to try, so she pretended to drink too much and rubbed her forehead, saying, "Noble Consort, I'm really sorry. I usually get drunk after drinking a little wine."
