On a summer night, the Tonghuatai is bright and sparse, and the sunset in the corner of the wall blooms beautifully in the moonlight.
King Guojun was brought here by the emperor to attend a night banquet. Who knows, it was Zhen Huan who came with Xiaoxiazi. Looking at Zhen Huan, who was dressed in a scarlet palace dress, what the emperor wanted, King Guojun already knew in his heart.
When Zhen Huan poured two glasses of wine with a mandarin duck pot, one red and one green, King Guojun asked him to close the window under the pretext that it was windy at night, and then changed the cups. When Zhen Huan found out, the cup of poisonous wine she poured for herself had been drunk by Yunli.
One of them is a concubine, and the other is a royal prince, and the evil relationship between the two that should not exist has also come to an end.
Some people feel embarrassed for their love, and some people feel that King Guojun is willing to die for not Zhen Huan, who he misses, but someone else.
Who is this man?
Zhen Huan was born in a Han family, is the daughter of Zhen Yuandao, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, has read poetry and books since she was a child, is versatile, and is born with excellent appearance, is a rare boudoir beauty in the world.
Because of the influence of her parents' love, Zhen Huan has hoped since she was a child that she can find a husband who is dedicated to her like her mother, and the two are in love with each other.
Heaven did not fulfill people's wishes, because she looked like the emperor's late wife Empress Chunyuan, she was finally elected to the palace and became "Dongguan Changzai".
Before entering the palace, although there were rules in the palace to teach Mama, but in the harem, the concubines and concubines could not teach those bloody methods and conspiracies for the sake of their own glory.
When she inadvertently saw the little palace maid drowned in the well, she had a fear of this majestic palace from the depths of her heart. She chose to pretend to be sick and avoid favors.
Winter goes to spring, and the royal garden is full of flowers, so lively.
Xiao Yunzi, the eunuch beside Zhen Huan, was afraid that her master would be locked up in the palace all day long, so she set up a swing frame in a remote corner of the imperial garden, and Zhen Huan's dowry coaxed her to play.
Unexpectedly, the song "Apricot Blossom Sky Shadow" attracted a man who claimed to be the king of Guojun to taste Xiao poetry with her and talk about the past and the present.
Zhen Huan gradually fell in love with the man's talent, but knew that she was married to the emperor's family, and a budding girl's heart did not dare to show it in the slightest.
Maybe just like Zhen Huan's own answer when Cao Guiren used this matter to provoke the relationship between the emperor and Zhen Huan, the person she liked at that time didn't matter whether that person was the emperor or the king of Guojun.
But perhaps Zhen Huan herself didn't realize that the name "King Guojun" had quietly entered her heart through the emperor's mouth.
After Zhen Huan was favored, it can be said that she was favored by three thousand, and at the same time, she also attracted the resentment of the concubines in the harem.
At Princess Wenyi's first birthday banquet, Cao Guiren, who was Concubine Hua's minion, secretly tricked Zhen Huan to dance the emperor's wife's favorite song "Amazing Dance", no matter how well she danced, as long as she imitated Chunyuan, she would definitely be rejected by the emperor.
But Zhen Huan had to jump under the situation at that time.
Just when the emperor showed impatience with her dance, King Guojun's song "Phoenix Flying" helped her dance "Amazing Dance" out of the Tang Dynasty when Concubine Mei was first founded, "like a flying dragon", and the emperor greatly appreciated it.
At this time, it was also Zhen Huan's first official meeting with the king of Guojun, who had always existed in rumors, on a formal occasion.
It is rumored that he is personable and talented, and even the daughter of the prince of the country is not married to him.
On the seventeenth day of the fourth month of the lunar calendar, on Zhen Huan's birthday, King Guojun took a lot of trouble to celebrate the birthday of his favorite concubine on behalf of the emperor.
Let a lake of lotus flowers that should bloom in summer, but in the late spring, the lake is full of bloom, and there are kites that cover the sky and the sun to pray for her.
Zhen Huan's close friend Shen Meizhuang was framed for "fake pregnancy and competition for favor", and was confined in Xianfu Palace, and the emperor ordered that no one should see it.
Zhen Huan visited Meizhuang in the middle of the night, and when she was almost discovered by the patrol guards when she returned to the palace, she saw a small boat parked by the lake, and hit it headlong in a panic.
And the owner of this ship was the king of Guojun, who was kept in the palace by the emperor, and when he saw that the person hiding in his ship was Zhen Huan, he was the prince of Yaxing, who was disturbed by the guards, and repelled them, and sent Zhen Huan back to the palace safely.
Later, the emperor prayed for the affected people to leave the palace and handed over the harem power to Concubine Hua.
Concubine Hua is usually jealous and resentful because Zhen Huan robbed her of her favor, and wanted to take this opportunity to punish her.
Ignoring that Zhen Huan was pregnant, she punished her for kneeling under the scorching sun at noon, causing Zhen Huan to have a miscarriage and faint.
When the personal maid Huanbi asked the Queen Mother for help, she happened to meet the King of Guojun who came to ask the Queen Mother for peace.
After understanding the situation, he disregarded the rules of etiquette and righteousness, broke into Concubine Hua's palace and rescued Zhen Huan. Although Zhen Huan's child was not saved in the end, Zhen Huan remembered this kindness.
King Guojun helped Zhen Huan again and again, either icing on the cake, or sending charcoal in the snow, so that King Guojun took root in Zhen Huan's heart little by little.
However, on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve that year, when he took down the paper-cut statue of Zhen Huan for blessing from the plum blossom branch, he already had a soft spot, and then there was a subsequent intentional or unintentional contact, which was even more deeply rooted.
But at this time, they always remember their identities and never dare to cross the thunder pool by half a step.
Zhen Huan relied on her high EQ and high IQ to fight her way out of the intriguing harem, gain a firm foothold, and wait for the day when she was concubined, but she fell into the hands of the merciful and evil queen.
The queen bought the Internal Affairs Office and deliberately broke the auspicious clothes on the day of Zhen Huan's concubine, forcing her to find help from the Internal Affairs Office and find another auspicious dress instead.
And this auspicious dress that is qualified to be used for emergency relief in the rivers and lakes is deliberately taken out by the queen, and it is the clothes of Empress Chunyuan, who has white moonlight in the emperor's heart.
At the beginning, Zhen Huan was selected in the draft, and a large part of the reason was that she looked like Chunyuan, but Zhen Huan herself didn't know about this.
As for the emperor, he thinks it's okay for you to look like, but it is disrespectful and unforgivable for you to imitate yourself. After decades of husband and wife, the emperor's mind and queen naturally understood it, and it was she who took advantage of this to design Zhen Huan, who was kept in the dark.
When Zhen Huan, who was dressed in Chunyuan's clothes, stood behind the gauze curtain, the emperor vaguely thought that he had seen his deceased wife, and was excited, and even called Chunyuan's nickname "Wanwan".
The inexplicable Zhen Huan thought that the emperor just recognized the wrong person, and was busy explaining, saying that he was Zhen Huan, not "Wanwan".
A word woke up the person in the dream, and after the emperor saw that it was Zhen Huan who was wearing Chunyuan's clothes, he was furious, punished Zhen Huan for the crime of disrespect, and punished her for thinking about it behind closed doors, and she couldn't come out without an edict.
At this time, Zhen Huan finally understood that for many years, she was just a stand-in in the eyes of the emperor, and her past kindness was fake, like a dream.
When he was disheartened, after giving birth to Haoyue, he invited himself to go to the royal temple Ganlu Temple to become a monk and lead the practice.
At this time, Zhen Huan's parents were also framed by the villain and sent to Ningguta.
Zhen Huan, who has no power and no support, was bullied in Ganlu Temple, and on a snowy day, Zhen Huan, who had a high fever, was driven to the remote Lingyun Peak.
At this time, the king of Guojun was sent by the emperor to help the Zhen family intercede, and he had just come back from the field to Anqiguan to his concubine Shu, and on the way he happened to meet Zhen Huan and his party who were in a coma and went up the mountain in the snow.
In a hurry, King Guojun took Zhen Huan to the Qingliangtai of the palace outside him.
In order to reduce Zhen Huan's fever as soon as possible, King Guojun took off his fox fur, only wore a middle coat, lay down in the snow, and after his body was cold, he went back to the house to hug Zhen Huan who had a high fever, and after his body was no longer cold, he went out again to lie in the ice and snow.
After repeating the cycle and going back several times, Zhen Huan finally showed signs of fever, and the medicine could be filled, which can be regarded as picking up a small life.
However, King Guojun left a lifelong injury for this, and if he didn't pay attention to it, he would have chills and fever.
After Zhen Huan recovered from her illness, she returned to Lingyun Peak, where there are often raccoon cats in the barren mountains and wilderness, and Zhen Huan is most afraid of cats.
In order to let her sleep peacefully every night, King Guojun played the flute for her outside the courtyard every night and did not leave until dawn.
At this time, Zhen Huan, who was a waste concubine, was deeply heartbroken by the emperor, and was slowly moved by the sincerity of King Guojun and the persuasion of everyone.
Finally, on a thunderstormy night, in the sound of the flute that had been insisting, he opened the closed Zen door and walked towards the king of Guojun.
The two of them had a sweet life like glue in Lingyun Peak, and King Guojun also took Zhen Huan to meet his mother, just when the two of them privately made a lifelong decision, planning to ask Imperial Doctor Wen to match a pair of fake death pills and run to the door of happiness with death, the emperor issued a holy decree to let King Guojun, who has never participated in state affairs, go to the area of Yunnan and Tibet to investigate the actions of the Zhun Geer Department.
Before leaving, King Guojun promised Zhen Huan that he would return in 40 days at the latest, but Zhen Huan waited for four months, but waited for the news that King Guojun's ship was destroyed and killed.
Shen Meizhuang hurried to Lingyunfeng under the pretext of telling Zhen Huan that his father was seriously ill in Ningguta, and if he was not treated in time, he would probably die soon.
At this time, Zhen Huan was pregnant for more than four months, after thinking about it, the matter of King Guojun was not an accident, and it was not the will of God that his father was seriously ill.
Zhen Huan's master and servant achieved their goal through Su Peisheng, the first celebrity around the emperor.
Before returning to the palace, Zhen Huan went to bid farewell to Concubine Shu and told the concubine that she already had Yunli's blood in her belly.
Just when everything was a foregone conclusion, the king of Guojun, Aixin Jueluo Yunli, appeared in front of everyone's eyes alive, but it was useless.
There is no turning back when the bow is opened, if Zhen Huan repents at this time, the people involved do not know how to go.
Soon after Zhen Huan returned to the palace, she gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses.
With the help of the imperial physician Wen Shichu, the emperor always thought that the pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses was his own, and it was Zhen Huan who was frightened by the night cat and gave birth to a premature baby, which was particularly loved.
Zhen Huan's parents were also well placed after Zhen Huan returned to favor.
King Guojun also married Meng Jingxian, the daughter of Duke Pei, and Zhen Huan's half-sister Huanbi as a side concubine.
I thought that life would go on so peacefully, but who knew that there was wind and thunder on the ground.
When King Guojun and Zhen Huan were in Lingyun Peak, they once rescued a person who was bitten by a snake, Zhungar Khan Mog. At that time, Moge fell in love with Zhen Huan at first sight and wanted to take possession of it.
Later, the Junggar Ministry and the Qing Dynasty were at war, and the Junggar Department was infected with the plague and had no choice but to come to send a letter of request, and saw Zhen Huan again at the banquet, only to understand that the pair of talented women in front of him at that time was the relationship between the imperial sister-in-law and the little uncle.
He used this to blackmail Zhen Huan, wanting to get the recipe for the ** plague, otherwise he would have to tell the emperor that Zhen Huan had a personal affair with King Guojun.
Who knew that Moge was just a lip pro and did not put it into actual action, but this other party was listened to by the emperor's personal guard Xia Jiao and reported to the emperor.
In order to test the two of them, the emperor deliberately said that he wanted Zhen Huan to go to the Zhun Geer Department to marry, which led the king of Guojun to ignore the courtesy of the monarch and the ministers, and privately sent troops to intercept him.
In the past three years, every time I write a letter to my family, I have to write the sentence "Concubine Xi is well" at the end.
In fact, with the wisdom of King Guojun, he had long known that the suspicious emperor had never really trusted him. No matter how low-key he usually is, it doesn't help.
It's just because the emperor Ama was too fond of him at the beginning, and he was also interested in ascending to the throne of the crown prince, but the current emperor has never been called the "prince".
And this time, for Zhen Huan's sake, he will not let him go easily because he asked to guard the border.
And these letters of his, if the emperor wants to get them, it is a very easy matter.
He wrote this just to strengthen the emperor's desire to kill him, as long as he died, the emperor would definitely not touch Zhen Huan and her children for the sake of his dignity as an emperor.
Sure enough, three years later, the emperor issued a holy decree to summon the king of Guojun back to the palace to report on his work. The reception banquet was arranged in his mother's favorite copper flower platform.
The emperor who originally said that he was going to catch the wind for him in person said that he was drunk and could not come, but he asked Zhen Huan to pay for the banquet alone, and sent Xia Jia to guard outside the palace gate.
If at the end of the banquet, in addition to Zhen Huan, there are other people (King Guojun), they will all be killed, including Zhen Huan, as soon as Zhen Huan dies, her children and Princess Shu, the Eniang of King Guojun, will also not end well.
Ming can't come, the royal family has more ways to make people die without knowing it.
When King Guojun saw that Xiao Xiazi only brought Zhen Huan alone, he already understood what the emperor meant, and when he took Zhen Huan to close the window, he drank the cup of poisonous wine that the emperor had prepared for him for a long time.
Before he died, he leaned on Zhen Huan's arms and said that the two children were very similar to her, and asked her to protect herself and live well for the sake of the children.
In fact, King Guojun knew early on that Zhen Huan's twin daughters were not the emperor's at all, but his own, not to mention that Zhen Huan had also told Concubine Shu about this after regaining favor and before returning to the palace.
As a mother, she will not be impulsive or confused for the sake of her son, and she will not hide the affairs of her two children from him.
King Guojun knew that in order to prevent Zhen Huan from making peace with him, he was already doomed to die to solve this game.
Rather than everyone die together, it is better to sacrifice him and save all the people he wants to protect, Eniang, Zhen Huan, and children.
