Even though there are so many beauties in the emperor's harem, it seems that there is only room for one of them in the emperor's eyes and heart.

Tolerate the woman named Zhang Ying who repeatedly rejected him.

in fact--

How could Zhang Ying not be moved when faced with the emperor's deep affection in the past?

But Zhang Ying was more open-minded. She knew clearly that the emperor was both affectionate and fickle. In this world, even a man from an ordinary family could not be trusted, let alone an emperor who had three thousand beauties in his harem.

Zhang Ying knew clearly that she had no good looks and no prominent family background. What did she have to be worthy of the emperor?

Even if the emperor didn't care about her, favored her, protected her and loved her.

But just because the emperor doesn’t say anything doesn’t mean others won’t say anything.

It doesn't mean that the people in the harem are gossiping, nor does it mean that the ministers in the court won't say anything.

Besides——

When Zhang Ying realized that she was obviously attracted to the emperor, after all, with his stunning appearance, background, and enormous power, there was no reason for her not to be attracted, right?

Although she is open-minded and knows some things clearly, at the same time, she is just an ordinary person among the countless people, isn't she?

But compared with other women in the harem, Zhang Ying felt that she could be more open-minded and delicate. She was not just thinking about the present and enjoying the present, because she was also thinking about the future.

Zhang Ying thought, if at that time, she really could not bear the emperor's deep love and promise to her, and chose to betray Wu Qingying and be with the emperor, she would probably have been abandoned by the emperor just like Wu Qingying now, right?

However, Zhang Ying knew that if she had really chosen the emperor many years ago, indeed, now, no matter how smart she was or how confident she was, she knew clearly that the emperor's favor for her was nothing more than a temporary interest in her.

It was precisely because there were so many beauties of such noble birth and stunning beauty in the harem that the emperor could not see them all and even his eyes were tired of looking at them.

Then suddenly she appeared.

She, a beautiful girl from a humble family with no background at all, appeared.

That's why the emperor is interested in her.

Of course, the Emperor’s interest in her wouldn’t last long, right?

It was because Zhang Ying thought of this back then that she knew clearly that no matter how important the emperor's promise to her was, no matter how much the emperor liked her at that time, Zhang Ying knew clearly that her sincerity and loyalty in following Wu Qingying must not be shaken.

Even at the risk of offending the emperor.

So much so that later on, the emperor finally became impatient with his own repeated rejections, and even to retaliate against himself, he deliberately made himself angry and acted affectionate with Wu Zhaoyi in front of him.

In fact, when Wu Zhaoyi first became favored, she could see that the emperor was not very interested in her.

But no matter what, Wu Zhaoyi was also a third-rank Zhaoyi, and according to her mother's family status, she should have been a second-rank Zhaoyi. However, because the harem was full of four second-rank concubines, the emperor had no choice but to give her only a third-rank Zhaoyi.

Just on this matter, the emperor knew that he owed Wu Zhaoyi a little.

The second is Wu Zhaoyi's family. In order to appease Wu Zhaoyi's family and not let the Wu family down, the emperor has to favor Wu Qingying in Ruyi Palace for a period of time.

Thanks to Wu Qingying's wild idea, Zhang Ying still finds it very funny when she thinks about it now.

It was a pity that Wu Zhaoyi actually thought that the emperor doted on her because he really liked her, was attracted to her and had her in his heart.

It's her own charm.

When she was at home, before entering the palace, Wu Zhaoyi was the center of attention in the family.

Even though there were so many stunningly beautiful women in the emperor's harem, and Wu Qingying herself was proud of her beauty, which was among the best when she was in the capital, and she was very confident about it, but after entering the palace, it was obvious that Wu Qingying herself felt a little unsure.

Later, the emperor stayed in her Ruyi Palace day and night, and Wu Qingying almost monopolized the favor of all the concubines in the harem at that moment, which made Wu Qingying regain hope at that moment.

Especially later on, it was obvious that the emperor favored her so many times in a row, which was enough to make Wu Qingying happy and excited.

Later, because of her rejection of the emperor, which made the emperor lose face in front of her, the emperor began his almost vengeful behavior and gave all his love, all his relationships, and all his attention to Wu Qingying.

It was Wu Qingying at that time, and on that day, and for a long period of time afterwards, who completely and thoroughly became the one that all the women in the harem envied, hated, and envied!

Thanks to Wu Qingying, she still thought that her beauty and gentleness moved the emperor and made him linger on her, but she didn't know...

Even though, at that time, both Zhang Ying and the emperor knew tacitly that Wu Qingying had become a pawn for the emperor to vent his anger.

The emperor deliberately provoked her in front of her, and favored Wu Zhaoyi in front of her. He treated her very well, just to make her sad, upset, feel bad, and even make her regret it.

Because the emperor was proving to her that everything the emperor gave to Wu Zhaoyi originally belonged to her, but she didn't want it, so the emperor gave it all to Wu Qingying.

Unfortunately——

Wu Qingying was still immersed in the emperor's sweet words and vows to her.

She would never discover this and would never know this. She was afraid that she would never know the truth of the matter in this lifetime.

But even if you know, what can you do?

Yes.

Even if Wu Qingying knew, what would happen?

Zhang Ying suddenly laughed at herself, with a self-deprecating smile on her face.

When she recalled the past, she seemed to be completely immersed in it. She was immersed in the past for a long time and did not come back to her senses for a long time.

"Does the Empress know? I am going to say something extremely treasonous. Empress, do you know? Do you know how childish the Emperor's behavior was in my eyes at that time? To me, all of the Emperor's actions, all of them, all of his acts of revenge against me, I don't know how funny it makes me laugh. It makes me laugh to the extreme."

Maybe she really found it funny. Even though so many years had passed since what happened, Zhang Ying still found it very funny when she thought about it.

Even the corners of her mouth were full of smiles at this moment.
