Quick Wear: I and the Female Match Share the Battle Shirt

"The Emperor asked Concubine Ling if she was really willing to stay in the palace. After hearing this, Concubine Ling asked the Emperor what a woman should do to be successful. The Emperor immediately understood the meaning of her words, praised her ambition, and encouraged her with Wu Zetian and Empress Lu. Your Majesty, have the Emperor and Concubine Ling told you about this?"

Fu Cha Langya's face changed drastically, "How...how do you know these things?"

"My lady, don't ask me how I know this. I just want to ask you, have they told you about this?"

"Impossible, Yan Wan is obedient and well-behaved, how could she have such thoughts?" Fu Cha Langya seemed to have thought of something, staring into Lu Changqing's eyes and questioning: "Are you trying to alienate us?"

Lu Changqing spread his hands, "I have no children, and I have no favors, what good is it for me to alienate you?"

"Your Majesty, I'm telling you all this because I really feel sorry for you. You've been working hard and conscientiously as the Queen for so many years, but how has the Emperor treated you? He just praised you a few times, saying 'You've worked hard, Queen', and then what? Then nothing happened."

"Your Highness, you are ill." Lu Changqing pointed to his chest and continued, "It's a psychological illness. You love the emperor, but he can't give you the same love, so you feel wronged and depressed."

"He is a king with supreme power, and you are just a woman who depends on him. Your power is given to you by him. This kind of relationship where you are below him means that you have no way to deal with him. Thunder, lightning, rain and dew are all grace from the king. No matter how much suffering or grievance you have to endure, as a person of inferior status, you can only bear it yourself."

Fu Cha Langya's lips trembled. It was not that she was unaware of the reason for her depression, but she just didn't want to admit that her true feelings were misplaced.

"Do you know why the emperor encouraged Concubine Ling to seize power? First, he had never seen a woman who was so interested in power. Concubine Ling seemed very fresh and special to him. Second, he was confident that Concubine Ling could not beat him. To put it bluntly, he looked down on women."

"As for you, Madam." Lu Changqing looked Fu Cha Langya up and down and said with a smile, "You are so obedient and docile, just like a cat with its claws clipped. I can satisfy you by just petting and teasing you every day."

"Stop talking." Fu Cha Langya took a deep breath and slowly closed her eyes.

"My lady, I have one last word."

Fu Cha Langya opened her eyes, looked at Lu Changqing, and motioned for her to speak.

"You have ended up like this today, or the women in the harem have ended up like this today not because the emperor is unfaithful, but because we have never been given power. Everything we have is given by the emperor. If the emperor is happy, then each of us can get a few broken plates that have flown across the ocean; if the emperor is unhappy, then each of us has to live in fear."

"It's the same for us, and for women all over the world who are trapped in backyards, whose freedom is restricted by men and families."

Lu Changqing looked deeply into Fucha Langya's eyes, "My queen, do you want the princess to be like this? Trapped in the backyard all her life, taking care of her husband, concubines, and dozens of people in her family?"

Not long after this meeting, Fu Cha Langya fell completely ill and could hardly get out of bed. She needed someone to serve her when she ate or took medicine.

Emperor Gaozong of the Qing Dynasty was very anxious and stayed in Changchun Palace for several days.

He didn't understand why Langya suddenly fell ill when she had clearly survived the point of her death?

Wei Yanwan was also very worried about Fucha Langya. She sat beside Langya's bed with a big belly, looking at the emperor with dark circles under his eyes, and said with concern: "Your Majesty, you haven't had a good rest for a few days. Go to sleep for a while. I'll be here with you, Your Majesty."

Emperor Gaozong of Qing held Wei Yanwan's hand and patted it, saying in a gentle tone: "Ling Fei, you are now the mother of twins, don't let your illness get to you, you should go down first."

Wei Yanwan's eyes were filled with tears, and she looked distressed, "Your Majesty, I am worried about you. Don't let the queen not get better before you also fall down."

"It's okay, I can still hold on."

[Again, I'm going to say this: This is not random writing. In order to show how united the harem is and how good the relationship between Wei Yanwan and Langya is, some authors often write about the Qing Emperor holding A's hand and feeling sorry for B. Not only that, they also write about how touched and shy A and B are.]

This was the scene Lu Changqing saw when she came in. She wished she could plug her ears and poke her eyes blind.

Lu Changqing approached and bowed to Emperor Gaozong of the Qing Dynasty.

Emperor Gaozong of Qing Dynasty was stunned when he saw Lu Changqing, and asked uncertainly: "Empress Xian?"

It’s not that Lu Changqing has changed a lot in recent years, but rather that her appearance has hardly changed in recent years, which makes Emperor Gaozong of Qing feel a little surprised.

Having good food and drink every day, not having to serve your husband and having no children, and having nothing to worry about, how could such a heavenly life "make you age faster"?

"Yes, does the emperor have any instructions?"

Emperor Gaozong of Qing shook his head, glanced at Lu Changqing's face a few more times, and then asked, "Why are you here now?"

"I came to see how your Majesty is doing."

Langya was awake the whole time, but she felt dizzy and didn't want to talk.

At this moment, she heard Lu Changqing's voice, slowly opened her eyes, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Is it Concubine Xian?"

Wei Yanwan and Emperor Gaozong of Qing were very happy to see Langya wake up. One of them called her "Sister" and the other called her "Queen" and fell to the bed.

Langya forced a weak smile towards the two people in front of the bed, "Your Majesty is here. Please forgive me for being disrespectful. I cannot greet Your Majesty today."

"What are you talking about? The most important thing for you now is to take good care of yourself. As long as you can get better, I will allow you to not have to greet me when you see me in the future."

Lu Changqing: …

She thought the other party would be able to give her such a grace that would shock the world and make the ghosts cry, but just this?

Lu Changqing walked closer and said to Emperor Gaozong of Qing: "Your Majesty, let me persuade the queen."

"You?" Emperor Gaozong of Qing looked at Lu Changqing suspiciously, turned to look at Wei Yanwan, and found that she was also staring at Lu Changqing in confusion.

"Are Sister Concubine Xian and the Empress on good terms?"

Lu Changqing smiled at Wei Yanwan and said, "I have known the Empress for more than ten years, so our relationship is not bad."

Wei Yanwan felt a little jealous and turned to look at Langya's weak face on the bed. Since waking up, the Queen had only glanced at her, and after that her eyes either fell on the Emperor or Concubine Xian.

Wei Yanwan got up from the bed with the help of Chunchan, and sat on a chair beside her. She stared at Lu Changqing's back without blinking, as if she wanted to stare a hole in her.

Lu Changqing sat on the edge of the bed and took up Fu Cha Langya's hand, put his index finger on her pulse, and took her pulse.

"My queen, you didn't listen to what I said at the beginning. The prince is still young, and the princess is almost married. If you collapse, what will happen to your two children?"

Lang Ya smiled bitterly and said, "The illness came like a mountain falling. I didn't expect a cold to last this long."

As soon as she finished speaking, Langya started coughing.

Lu Changqing let go of Langya's wrist and patted her on the back. "My queen, relax and don't dwell on trivial matters. If you have too much in your eyes, the world will be too small. If you have nothing in your heart, the bed will be too wide. Don't think about those things when you are sick now."

Langya stopped coughing, lowered her head and drank a sip of the warm water brought by Lu Changqing, then said: "What Concubine Xian said is right, I was possessed by a demon before."

Emperor Gaozong of Qing Dynasty's eyes swept across the faces of Lu Changqing and Fucha Langya. Facing Lu Changqing and other concubines in the harem, he would not choose to keep it to himself. He asked directly if he had any doubts in his heart.

"Empress Xian, what are you and the Queen talking about?"
