After being married off, she was favored by the powerful official

Today's palace is full of splendor, with a group of young ladies wearing fairy-like long dresses of various colors, which are even more colorful than the flowers in the imperial garden.

Today, Gu Jin was wearing a crimson purple gown with a front-breasted pattern embroidered with hibiscus flowers, and a lotus-white skirt. She looked more dignified and elegant than her usual bright and gorgeous attire.

She knew that she was just a tool. If she stole the limelight from others today, she would be hated by many people. The best result would be if she could get through the process safely and smoothly.

Xie Miaoyin felt a little uneasy when she looked at those gorgeous noble ladies. She was born a concubine and had no advantages. She also did not have a face as beautiful as Gu Jin's. She was afraid that she would be lost in the crowd today.

Bai Yiyi was quite calm in her heart. She was aware of her disadvantages, so she didn't plan to compete with them in family background. What she wanted was that uniqueness.

Being delicate, pitiful, simple and innocent can often touch a man's heart more.

Xie Miaorong stood far away in the corner and watched the noble ladies' secret confrontation with cold eyes. She was extremely disdainful of their behavior.

It is precisely because these women only know how to please and cater to men that the status of women is so humble. If she were given a chance, she would certainly be no worse than any man. It's a pity that this female body ultimately limits her life.

In a pavilion in the distance, Emperor Hui'an was looking at the girls in the imperial garden with a telescope in his hand, and said to the man beside him: "Almost all the girls from the powerful families in Beijing are here today, there must be one who suits your taste.

Your grandmother has been worried about your marriage for a long time, and it’s time for you to put her mind at ease.”

Li Ziheng looked nonchalant and said in a lazy and casual tone: "What if there is really nothing satisfactory?"

Emperor Hui'an looked at him coldly and threw the telescope in his hand to him unhappily, "Then I will have to choose for you, and you won't be able to be picky then!"

Li Ziheng was speechless. These people talked about having offspring every day, but his family didn't have a throne to inherit, so what did it matter whether he had offspring or not?

He raised the telescope out of boredom, and suddenly saw the unique thorny rose among thousands of flowers.

"Your Majesty, will you grant me marriage no matter who I choose?"

"Of course!" Emperor Hui'an promised solemnly: "Even if you and Prince Heng and Prince Yu have set their eyes on the same girl, as long as you like her, no matter where she comes from, I can guarantee that you will marry her your dream wife."

Now his aunt's greatest wish is to have a great-grandson, and he will do whatever it takes to make her wish come true.

"What about married women?"

"Of course..." Emperor Hui'an paused and glared at Li Ziheng, "Stop making jokes to me! I'm talking to you about your serious business!"

“I am serious too.

Compared to these young ladies from official families, I still prefer other people's wives. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't be interested in anyone else." Li Ziheng looked at Gu Jin, who was whispering with Su Shi, and the corners of his lips curled up.

Emperor Hui'an was stunned, his three views were shattered by Li Ziheng, and he felt that Li Ziheng was so despicable and hateful at this moment.

What a despicable character it is to steal someone else's wife. If this brat wasn't the only grandson his aunt had, he would have broken his legs!

Gu Jin suddenly frowned and looked around alertly. Seeing this, Su asked in confusion, "Jin'er, what's wrong with you?"

Gu Jin shook his head and smiled comfortingly: "It's nothing, I must be overthinking it."

She just now had an inexplicable feeling that she was being watched.

"The Empress has arrived, the Imperial Concubine has arrived..." Following the eunuchs' loud shouts, a group of maids escorted the most noble women in the harem into the garden.

Everyone bowed to greet her, and when they stood up, Gu Jin quietly raised her eyes to look at Queen Zhao. This was the first time she saw the mistress of the harem.

She was wearing a court gown embroidered with a golden phoenix with spread wings and two nine-tailed phoenix hairpins slanting on her hair. She looked truly noble and dignified as the mother of the country. But if you looked closely at her face, you could see the fatigue and haggardness that even rouge and powder could not hide, as if she was a thin puppet stuffed under a gorgeous skin.

Empress Zhao was about to speak when Concubine Jiang smiled and said, "Your Majesty, look at these young ladies, each of them is as beautiful as a flower, I love them very much.

Unlike us, who are old and ugly, just looking at us is annoying."

This sentence made Queen Zhao's face change. In terms of age, she was much older than Concubine Jiang, not to mention that Concubine Jiang was still beautiful and gorgeous. Her words sounded like self-mockery, but in fact, they were undoubtedly mocking her...
