Quickly wear it and get rid of his virtuous character
Chapter 441: Lowly Concubine 1
Su Tong has neither a distinguished family background nor outstanding looks, and he doesn't even have any talent that you can show off. What can he use to compete with the women in the harem?
Su Tong felt that he was very tired and he didn't even have a backer. The original owner was in a remote palace in the harem, and there was a main lady next to him. He was just a little beauty, but the lady was already a noble, but he was still not favored.
Su Tong checked his savings and shed two big tears. My goodness, that's all the money he had. If he gave it to a beggar, he would think he was making fun of him. It was really too little. The key point was that he didn't even have a decent piece of jewelry to show off.
When the original owner first entered the palace, she also had great ambitions, which was to gain the favor of the emperor and become a favorite concubine.
Su Tong wanted to lie down in this harem, but unfortunately, this harem now has a system of burying women alive with the emperor, which means that women who have not given birth to children will either be taken to be buried with the emperor or locked up in a temple to pray for the emperor.
I am only 18 years old this year, which is the age of a flower bud in modern times, but in ancient times, especially in the harem, I am already an old woman. I guess the emperor will show a puzzled expression when he sees me, who is this?
The original owner had also thought about making some efforts, but since she had no connections, she could neither spend money to inquire about the emperor's news, nor even cling to anyone, so she could only become a marginal figure in the harem. The key point was that she didn't even have the qualifications to pay respects to the empress.
In addition to the numerous concubines in the harem, the current emperor also has seven or eight princes, but fewer princesses, only four.
The current emperor is a romantic man with many beauties in his harem. In addition, there are some women without official status. Those people are much more pleasing than me. Not only can they serve others, but they can even speak nice words. So what do I gain from them?
"Beauty, you have been sighing since you woke up, but is there something wrong?"
After all, she was still the emperor's concubine. Even if she was not favored, she had three people serving her.
Originally there were two palace maids and a young eunuch, but because she was not favored, the other palace maid found an opportunity to be transferred to another favored concubine.
These two servants were three years younger than himself, which was school age in modern times, but they were already slaves in ancient times. The young eunuch was a man after all, and could be considered half a labor force, so he was directly called away by the noble of the main courtyard to serve. He could only ask them for small favors, and usually had to do it himself.
In fact, the women in the harem are not fighting for the emperor's favor, but for power and status. What do you think of this? The little girl didn't want to live a good life but had to wade into the muddy water of the harem and become one of the best concubines in the harem.
Oh my god, isn’t this equivalent to asking a vocational high school student to take the exam for a 985 student?
Su Tong felt a deep sense of powerlessness, like a eunuch going to a brothel. But when he saw the food on the table, he felt his heart throb with pain. Is this still food for human beings? A plate of fried yellow vegetables and two hard steamed buns. Fortunately, there was no green hair on them, otherwise this meal would be inedible.
The little girl didn't take it seriously, and even smiled when she saw the food. "Hey, the people in the imperial kitchen are quite easy to talk to today. At least the food they gave us is quite fresh."
Well, it is indeed quite fresh. It used to have a rotten smell. No wonder the original owner wanted to climb up so hard. It is really too depressing to stay in such an environment. Either you will be driven crazy or wait for death.
Su Tong casually ate two bites of vegetables, and seeing that the little girl was about to cry with greed, he handed the plate to the little girl. Seeing that she was so happy, Su Tong sighed deeply in his heart. His master was not favored, and the little girl suffered as a result.
After dinner, the master and servant were not idle either. They took out their old clothes and found a clean place to wash them. In fact, their clothes were washed by special people, but the original owner sent a thick cotton-padded jacket for washing, but what he got back was a tattered cotton-padded jacket that was not even warm enough. Later on, the master and servant washed their own clothes.
Moreover, the whole room had to be cleaned up, especially since winter was about to come and the master and servant had not yet found any charcoal fire.
"If it really doesn't work...we can just make some embroidery and sell it..." Su Tong thought that his craftsmanship was pretty good, but the little maid immediately shook her head like a rattle.
"Master, the mandarin duck you embroidered looks like a duck. No one wants it. Forget it."
Su Tong: Oh, oh, oh…
I almost forgot that the original owner was a spoiled young lady who couldn't do embroidery at all. Alas, if I made a beautiful embroidery now, the other party would probably think that my master was possessed by a ghost.
Forget it, it seems that this trick won’t work. The key is that I can’t even use my own medical skills. So what other skills do I have that I can show off?
Come to think of it, the original owner really can't do anything. The only thing he can do is sit there and wait for food and drinks.
"Xiao Ya, your name is not nice. When your master becomes rich, this name will not be readable. I will give you a name now, Xiao Ya."
Xiaoya scratched her head and said, "Master, I can speak, why do you call me a little mute?"
Su Tong burst out laughing, "It's not Little Mute, it's Xiaoya, the Xiaoya in the Book of Songs."
Xiaoya nodded as if she understood, but then she said with a gloomy face: "Master, please stop daydreaming. You could still have some hope before, but now there are so many young beauties in the harem. I guess you will never have a chance to make a breakthrough in your life. You'd better just stay in the palace and live your old age."
In fact, retirement care is also an option. As long as I live long enough, the emperor will always remember me. But...but I am afraid that the emperor will die earlier than me, and by then I will be old and have to be buried alive with him, or even have to eat vegetables in the temple. My old bones really can't stand this hardship.
"Xiaoya, everyone should have ideals, what if they come true?
There are many beauties in the harem, but I am not bad looking either. Okay, hurry up and clean up the dishes. I have to think of some way to make money..."
After Su Tong packed up his things, he couldn't help but sigh. It was easy to make money in the harem, but the key was that he didn't have the skills. Could he use the things in his own space?
Su Tong was a little hesitant, because since she started the mission, she rarely used the things in the space, because sometimes once she used them, she would feel like she was cheating.
"Master, the noble lady Wang is here."
Hearing footsteps, Su Tong looked up. Concubine Wang entered the palace at the same time as himself, but she had a sweet appearance and a pleasant voice, so she was much more favored than himself after entering the palace. She was directly promoted from a talented person to a noble lady, but she soon fell out of favor again. Neither of them had seen the emperor for a long time.
