The road of the favorite concubine in three lives is destined

Huang Zhongyi had only heard from others that General Lin was very powerful. His sister was the current empress and was deeply loved by the emperor. Therefore, General Lin's power grew stronger and stronger, to the point that everyone was afraid of him and no one dared to refute him.

Huang Zhongyi saw that he could not persuade the deputy general, so he took a rest and set off tomorrow.

The deputy general said, "Go ahead."

On the way back to Beijing, he walked along the paths in the fields and villages. These ordinary scenes seemed to reveal the breath of life. Perhaps, in this peaceful countryside, the joys and sorrows of his military career echoed. These scenes interweave a historical picture scroll, as if taking us back to the time when Huang Zhongyi retired bravely and recalled the years of fighting in his mind many times.

He also missed the days when he and the princess lived in the palace. Thinking that the princess was about to become a father, he became happier and quickened his pace to the capital.

Huang Zhongyi stepped into the Forbidden City, and a very familiar atmosphere hit him. The former glory and splendor seemed to be still before his eyes, making him feel as if he were in another world. He thought of his aspirations and dreams when he was young, and felt lost. The prosperity and tranquility in the Forbidden City seemed to be a contrast of life, stirring the passion that had cooled deep in his heart. The prosperity and history of this city stirred up waves in his heart, and brought him endless nostalgia and emotion.

In this city, reality and feelings always appear alternately. Huang Zhongyi knows that no matter how much he is attached to and nostalgic, he cannot resist the indifference and impetuousness of the city. He began to taste the ups and downs of city life and learned to treat life with a realistic approach. The vision and yearning he once had seemed so powerless in the face of reality. This contrast made his heart more and more turbulent. And this collision formed a huge impact in his heart, and he began to think about his direction and the direction of his life.

Huang Zhongyi finally returned to the Huang Mansion with excitement. As the carriage slowly stopped at the gate of the mansion, he looked at the familiar bluestone walls and eaves in front of him, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart. He hurriedly stepped into the gate, and the golden autumn sun shone on the mansion, but it reflected a deserted scene. The once bustling mansion seemed to have lost its former bustle and busyness, which made him feel depressed and doubtful.

Aunt Hong was picking flowers in the vegetable garden when she suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves coming from the gate of the mansion. She raised her head, her brows relaxed, and a burst of joy naturally surged in her heart. It was the master who came back! She hurriedly put down the bouquet in her hand, dropped the sack, and almost ran towards the door. Her heart was full of expectations and speculations, wondering what changes and news the master would bring when he came back. Aunt Hong was Huang Zhongyi's beloved. She knew every plant and tree inside and outside the Huang Mansion, but she also noticed the strangeness and desolation in the mansion during this period of time, which made her suspicious. She knew that the master's return might be able to solve these mysteries and let the Huang Mansion regain its former prosperity and joy. Huang Zhongyi took a deep breath and began to explore inside and outside the mansion. The empty footsteps in the corridor made his heart sink. The servants who used to be bustling were nowhere to be seen. He began to check every room and every corner, but found that the furnishings in the house were still in their original state. He didn't know whether it was because the owner lacked care or because someone was carefully maintaining it. The flowers and trees outside the window had not been trimmed and were in a mess. Huang Zhongyi gradually began to have doubts in his heart. The changes inside and outside the house were far from as simple as they seemed.
