Lin Daiyu's Rebirth

The prince looked at the woman on the boat quietly.

She was wearing a red gauze skirt from Nanyang and a veil.

A pair of willow-leaf eyebrows sway gently like a willow leaf blown by the breeze, revealing a hint of charm.

Her eyes were like those of a clever fox, neither happy nor unhappy.

There was a ruby ​​between her eyebrows, and a pair of playful dimples were faintly visible under the veil, like a naughty child playing hide-and-seek.

Her long hair cascaded down to her waist, like black silk fluttering gently in the breeze.

This is exactly the case when her fragrant face is shyly smiling, and her face is round like an apricot, afraid of the spring cold.

With a nimble figure and delicate body, she is like a lively deer, leaping lightly in the forest.

The red-dressed woman opened her lips slightly and sang a moving song:

"The fragrance of red lotus lingers on the jade mat in autumn,

I take off my silk robe and board the orchid boat alone."

At the same time, she waved her hands, revealing her snow-white belly. The woman was dancing the Indian belly dance.

The prince watched intently and thought: Li Qingzhao's poems, combined with Tianzhu's dance, are so beautiful.

Just then, Caiyue came over with a few servants, and everyone thought that the concubine had fallen into the water.

But when they saw the woman on the boat singing and dancing, everyone was stunned. Everyone stood behind the prince and watched her singing and dancing.

"Who sent this letter from the clouds?

When the wild geese return, the moon is full in the west building.

Suddenly the singing changed, the woman put her hands under her face, looked straight ahead, and took off her veil.

Ah, it turned out to be the concubine. She sang so beautifully and danced so beautifully.

Everyone praised him.

The prince looked at Siyu on the boat. She was delicate but not gaudy, charming but not vulgar, like a lotus just out of its bath. Her song was melodious and lingering, leaving a lasting aftertaste.

“The flowers fall and the water flows.

A kind of lovesickness, two sorrows.

This can't be eliminated

The worry has just left my brow, but it is still weighing on my mind."

After the concubine finished singing, she had a half-smile on her face, her eyes were full of affection, and she kept spinning around.

Nanyang's gauze skirt swayed gently in the evening breeze, further highlighting her agility.

After the song ended, Siyu got off the boat, and the prince could still feel the lingering sound of the music for three days.

At this moment, the first wife heard from someone that the concubine fell into the water. She rushed over and could not help but see the concubine wearing a Nanyang gauze skirt and singing and dancing charmingly.

When the eldest wife saw that the prince's eyes and heart were immersed in Siyu's singing, she left with her maid.

Caiyue thought that the prince would stay at Concubine's place tonight, so she told everyone to disperse and go back to their rooms to rest.

The prince took Siyu's hand and said with a smile: "Siyu, don't scare people anymore. You don't know how anxious I am."

"Your Highness, are you worried about me? I thought you only had eyes for the First Lady." Siyu scolded with a smile.

"Think about it, apart from accompanying the eldest wife, most people come to your room, and you still make a fuss.

If you want to sing and dance, just tell me directly. There's no need to go through the trouble of bringing me to the lake.

You made me worry about you." The prince scratched Siyu's nose, and they went back to their room hand in hand.

"Every one of them knows how to seduce the prince. The woman outside is still unclear, and this concubine is starting to act crazy again." The eldest concubine gritted her teeth and cursed angrily.

The eldest wife returned to her room and started to get angry. She didn't understand why the man who had such an infatuated relationship with her and was so loving to her could love someone else at the same time.

Just then, Cai Lian told her that Xiao Quanzi wanted to see her.

"Master, you haven't visited the master for a long time. We have to go there." Xiao Quanzi said with a smile.

"The prince probably won't come to my place tonight.

Cai Lian, please keep an eye on it and ask someone to hold the door open for me. We will be back soon.

If the prince comes, you help me deal with it." After saying that, the eldest wife took Xiao Quanzi away.

"My daughter pays her respects to my adoptive father. May I ask how he is doing recently?" The eldest wife bent down and made a greeting gesture.

"No need to greet me. How have you been lately? Have you forgotten my instructions to you and haven't come over yet?

Still immersed in the vortex of jealousy. Thinking that being a good wife is enough for you."

An old man in a black Taoist robe was scolding the eldest wife loudly.

"You have forgotten your identity, you think you are just the eldest wife of Prince Rong's Mansion.

"Forget about overthrowing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty, forget who worked so hard to raise you. This is my only wish, can't you help me realize it?" the old man said relentlessly.

"I haven't forgotten, but there are too many people vying for favor in the palace. I want to consolidate my position and make the prince love me." The eldest wife said aggrievedly.

"Let the prince love you? Are you okay in your head? He has a woman on his left and a woman on his right. How can he love you?

I have a few tasks for you today. Find a way to get the prince into politics, into management, to the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Rites...

He is a prince. As long as he asks the emperor to propose it, I will ask your father to bring the old ministers to nominate him, and there will be no objection.

Then ask the prince to make your son the crown prince.

Here are a few packets of incense powder. Remember to destroy them after you use them up." The old man said this and left.

The eldest wife watched the old man walk away, then returned home with Xiao Quanzi.

Fortunately, everyone in the mansion was asleep and no one noticed that she had returned from outside with Xiao Quanzi.

The eldest wife returned to her room, sent Cai Lian away, and took Xiao Quanzi to the secret room.

"Xiao Quanzi doesn't know what instructions Madam has given. Please tell me clearly." Xiao Quanzi looked at Madam anxiously.

"My adoptive father wants you to go into politics, but every time I bring it up, you turn your back on me. I'd like to put this matter aside for now, so don't tell my adoptive father.

Then you go keep an eye on Xiao Luzi. The prince might send Xiao Luzi to that courtyard to deliver something to that girl. You keep an eye on him and do something if necessary. "The eldest wife said softly.

After Xiao Quanzi left, the eldest wife was thinking about something thoughtfully.

If you don't fight for favor, your status and position will be lost. If you fight, you have to use some means. No woman will watch her man favor someone else.

But her adoptive father's affairs made her fall into deep thought again, including her adoptive father's great cause, to overthrow the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty. In the eyes of the first wife, this was impossible.

Just then, Cai Lian came over and said, "Fujin, it's getting late. Go wash your face and go to bed."

The eldest wife looked at it and added rose and jasmine petals to the basin of water, which gave off a fragrant smell. The wife smiled and said, "Thank you for your trouble."

The first wife smoothed her face and sprayed some essential oil on her body. Cailian took out a few sets of newly made pajamas for the first wife to choose from, but the first wife was worried and chose an apricot-colored one and went to sleep.

The prince lay on Siyu's bed, imagining how Daiyu would look when she saw him. He hadn't seen Daiyu for almost a month, and he wanted to see that pure and innocent little girl right away.

Yu'er, how are you? Do you miss me? How did you get by without me? I will send Xiao Luzi to see you tomorrow. The prince prayed silently in his heart, praying that Daiyu would be safe.

"My Lord, my Lord, please come to my room.

Your Majesty, why did you leave with the First Lady?"

Siyu turned over and muttered to herself in her dream. The prince lay beside her, thinking to herself, "May the day dawn soon."
