Stunning beauty, the hero of Collapse is happy again

After tossing and turning from the time the sun first rose until it was at its highest point in the sky, Ruan Guannan finally calmed down.

She was arranged to live in Yuhua Pavilion, which was not a big place, but it was new and had a good environment.

There is also a palm-sized lotus pond in the yard, which is quite interesting.

It's funny to say, the emperor showed that he respected her father very much in every aspect.

Shi En usually did not accept the military tokens of the Ruan family, but he summoned her, the legitimate daughter of a first-rank general, to the palace and made her a noble lady, the head of the lower-ranking concubines.

Combining "favor" with beating is really disgusting.

On the surface, letting her enter the palace showed that the emperor was close to the Ruan family, but in fact it was not the case.

First, to contain him, Nguyen Quan Nan was taken into the palace as a "hostage";

Second, the Nguyen family was powerful, and the emperor was afraid that the prince would be involved with the Nguyen family. Nguyen Guannan entered the palace and forced Nguyen's father to be a loyal minister.

Sure enough, no one who can become an emperor has a simple mind.

Ruan Guannan lay on the carved bed and didn't want to move.

Fusang and Jinrui were busy inside and outside the house like little spinning tops, putting away all the things that Ruan Guannan brought into the palace.

"Miss, the eunuch from the Palace Supervisor has brought some people here for you to choose a few suitable servants."

Fuso replied calmly.

Ruan Guannan waved his hands and said in a soft and coquettish voice:

"My good Fuso, I trust your judgment. Your master cannot move at all."

When she entered the palace, she was dressed neatly, and her jewelry was both dignified and heavy.

She now felt as if her neck was no longer her own, so how could she have the energy to choose servants?

Fuso felt sorry for his young lady too, so he tucked in the quilt for her and went down to choose the person as ordered.

In the evening, Ruan Guannan looked at the meal on the table which exceeded the allowance for a nobleman, and sat down to eat without any concern.

After all, she had just entered the palace, and no one knew what her future potential would be.

It is normal to wait and see and try to please others at the beginning. Only when the overall situation is settled can one know the warmth or coldness of the water by oneself.

After the meal, Jin Rui helped her wash up, and Fusang brought the newly selected palace maids to pay their respects to her.

"Your servant/servant pays homage to the noble master."

The four of them knelt in front of Ruan Guannan and prostrated themselves.

Ruan Guannan leaned softly on the chaise longue, his voice was calm,

"Get up."

She looked at the four people carefully. A noble lady could only be matched with six servants, and there were three new palace maids and a eunuch in front of her.

The more Ruan Guannan looked, the more satisfied he became, and he couldn't help but give Fuso a look of praise.

The latter blushed shyly and looked at the beautiful woman on the couch with sparkling eyes.

Ruan Guannan casually turned the handle of the fan in his hand and said directly:

"I have always been very kind to the people around me, but the prerequisite is that they must be loyal."

The voice changed and he continued:

"If you are threatened in the future, your best option is to seek help from this master, otherwise..."

With a forceful movement of his hand, the fan handle broke into two pieces.

The four of them shrank suddenly, with panic in their eyes. The unfinished words of the woman at the top were self-evident.

Xiao Fuzi quickly knelt down and kowtowed deeply, saying firmly:

"Xiao Fuzi must serve the master wholeheartedly and never betray him. If he has any second thoughts, he will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death."

"it is good!"

Ruan Guannan admires smart people. She said with a smile in her eyes:

"From now on, you will be called Kong Qing, and you will be the chief eunuch of Yuhua Pavilion."

The other three also quickly knelt on the ground to show their loyalty. Ruan Guannan gave them names one by one, "Nanzhi, Yuejian, Qingtang."

"If you have any questions in the future, go ask Fusang and Jinrui. They are my personal maids. Just follow their instructions from now on."

Ruan Guannan didn't like letting strangers get close to him, so he simply kept some distance between them and waited until they got familiar with each other.

During the first three days after entering the palace, the new concubine did not have to sleep with the emperor, which made Ruan Guannan feel relieved. He lay down on the bed and fell asleep peacefully.

*

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Early this morning, Ruan Guannan was pulled out of bed, washed, and then pressed on the dressing table for Fusang to fiddle with him.

The two girls looked serious, and if you didn't know them, you would think they were going to attend a state banquet.

After everything was packed up, Ruan Guannan set off with Jin Rui and the new arrival Yue Jian, while Fuso stayed behind to defend the position.

As the master of the harem, the queen lived in the solemn and magnificent Fengqi Palace.

As soon as Ruan Guannan stepped into the palace, he was shocked by its magnificence and grandeur.

She loves everything that is gorgeous and beautiful, including palaces.

Compared to this, she was too easy to satisfy before, and her room was so small that it was unbearable to look at.

She concealed the envy in her eyes, stood obediently among the newlyweds, waiting to be summoned by the Queen.

As soon as she stood still, she felt a pair of eyes fixed on her.

Ruan Guannan frowned slightly, looked in the direction of his sight, and when he saw that somewhat familiar face, he couldn't help but be stunned.

She withdrew her gaze and looked forward, feeling in her heart that this fate was truly wonderful. Isn't this person Xia Changle's little follower?

What's Gu Ran's name?

I heard from Fuso that her father was a third-rank Tongzhengshi.

The plot says that she and Xia Changle are close friends. They are simply birds of a feather and both like to bully the original heroine. So, has she also entered the palace?

Before Ruan Guannan could think about it, he heard a sharp voice saying "The Queen has arrived" and the powerful Queen took her seat gracefully.

As the highest-ranking bridegroom among the newlyweds, Ruan Guannan had to take the lead in paying respects to the queen.

The five of them bowed solemnly to the person sitting above them, and prostrated themselves on the ground, saying in unison:

"I, your servant, pay my respects to Her Majesty the Queen. May Her Majesty be blessed with good health and happiness."

For a long while, there was no movement from the person in charge. Listening carefully, the entire empty hall was too quiet.

After a long while, the person above said vaguely, "Stand up."

The five of them then greeted each concubine separately, but they did not need to kneel down again.

When everything was over, Ruan Guannan and the others sat down obediently in their respective seats.

For a long while, no one in the hall spoke.

When Ruan Guannan's heart was beating fast, he heard a clear and pleasant voice.

"I guess this must be the daughter of General Ruan who was made a noble lady as soon as she entered the palace. She is indeed born with a beautiful appearance."

Ruan Guannan quickly stood up and saluted, whispering:

"You are too kind, Empress Li Zhaoyi. I am a humble woman, far inferior to the other ladies."

The words are very humble, but they are pure lies with open eyes.

When Ruan Guannan came in just now, all the concubines, including the queen, were stunned.

Since they were able to enter the palace as concubines, they must be extremely beautiful.

Even if there are one or two outstanding ones occasionally, they are not to the point of being too fearful of them.

But now I don’t want to admit it anymore, Lady Ruan is indeed much more beautiful than anyone here.

As long as the emperor is not blind, Concubine Ruan will have a long way to go in the future!

After a while, another female voice sounded:

"Tsk, you have such a seductive face, do you really think you can soar to the sky?"

Li Jieyu couldn't stand it any longer and finally spoke sarcastically in an angry voice.

She was one of the first beauties selected after the emperor ascended the throne. Since entering the palace, she has always been favored because of her beautiful face.

This made her feel proud and jealous of Ruan Guannan's face.

Ruan Guannan originally sat there obediently, watching his surroundings, but there was always someone who provoked him.

She smiled lightly and said softly:

"Jieyu is right. Both my parents are good-looking, so I shouldn't be too eccentric, right?"

My goodness, this noble lady Ruan is worthy of being born into a military family. She is unwilling to suffer any loss. She is really a character that is not easy to mess with.

The concubines present had mixed feelings in their minds, but they showed nothing on their faces.

Compared to suppressing Ruan Guannan, they were more happy to watch Concubine Li make fun of her.

This woman relied on her face and the emperor's favor to act arrogantly in the palace, and some people had long disliked her.

"You! How dare you talk back! Liuxiang, slap me in the face!"

Concubine Li was so angry that her face was distorted and her chest was heaving.

The maid behind her heard her master's order and walked towards Ruan Guannan decisively. It was obvious that she had beaten him many times.

"presumptuous!"

The Queen finally spoke, looking at Concubine Li coldly and said sternly:

"I am still sitting here, and you like to take over my job!"

Li Jieyu was also confused just now, and hurriedly knelt down to apologize.

"Please forgive me, Queen. I was so angry at the criticism from Noble Lady Ruan that I lost my mind. Please forgive me, Queen."

"You are just a mere concubine. No matter how angry you are, you have no right to punish a concubine at will, let alone such a detrimental punishment."

The concubines below were shocked and found it unbelievable.

Concubine Shu has always been indifferent to things that do not concern her, but today the sun is rising from the west.

"What Concubine Shu said makes sense. We must not damage the appearance of our concubines.

Li Jieyu, Concubine Ruan is a newcomer. As an elder, you cannot be so rude. I will punish you by confining you to your room for three days and requiring you to copy the palace rules fifty times to teach you a lesson. "

The Queen severely decreed the punishment.

The word "old man" made Concubine Li look extremely bad.

But no matter how unwilling you are, you have to accept the punishment.

If we were to say which concubine has the most complicated inner world, it would definitely be Concubine Xian.

Obviously, he wanted to choose her as his daughter-in-law, but she ended up being his love rival.

And the love rival is such a beautiful and powerful one with a strong background. The emperor is really good at scheming!

After Cheng Er was chosen, she reported the matter to him immediately.

The emperor said at the time that this one was not suitable and asked to choose a better one for Cheng'er.

After hearing this, she thought that Cheng'er was valued and was very happy for a while.

So, this is what the emperor calls inappropriate?

The virtuous concubine sneered in her heart, isn’t this inappropriate?

How can I promise the woman I like to my son as his wife?

No matter what others think, Ruan Guannan's first greeting ended in this smoke-filled scene.

On the way back, Jin Rui said in a worried voice:

"Master, I have inquired and found out that Concubine Li is very favored by the emperor. We just offended her like that. What if she holds a grudge against you..."

Ruan Guannan did not answer, but looked at her with amusement and said:

"Hey, why don't you call me Miss?"

Jin Rui's lost Nunu mouth,

"Fusang said that if I am not careful with my words, it is very likely to cause you trouble. I must not hold my master back."

Ruan Guannan patted her lost little head and comforted her:

"Fusang is right. You have to be careful about everything when you are in the palace.

You are my strong arms, and how far I can go in the future depends on your help."

After saying that, she held Yuejian's hand again and spoke sincerely.

Yue Jian was a little envious at first, but now that she saw that her master also remembered her, she felt very touched.

"Jinrui, Yuejian, you must remember that blindly giving in will only allow the enemy to gain further advantage.

My father and brothers fought in the battlefields and achieved great feats, but that was not for the sake of letting our family swallow their anger.

If you only know how to be weak when encountering things, I am afraid that you will shit on my head in the future. "

Ruan Guannan told them his thoughts, hoping that they would understand his attitude so that they could act better in the future.

At the same time, it also lets them know that they have the ability to protect them.

After all, Jin Rui grew up with Ruan Guannan, so she immediately nodded in agreement as soon as he said that.

Yue Jian was a little stunned. After a while, she nodded with a firm look in her eyes.

"Master, this servant knows."
