Lin Daiyu's Rebirth

"Under the red gauze window, I have no fate,

In the loess mountains, how unfortunate you are.”

Daiyu murmured, her eyes blurred, as if immersed in her own world.

She held a wine glass in her hand and took a sip from time to time.

At this time, Daiyu was already a little drunk, her thoughts became confused, and she didn't know why she suddenly thought of these lines of poetry.

Perhaps it was because there were too many things going on recently, making her overwhelmed, or perhaps it was because the prince went to see the eldest wife.

These lines of poetry suddenly popped up in my mind.

She felt an indescribable loneliness and helplessness, as if the world had abandoned her.

Just then, Xiaoling walked in.

Seeing Daiyu drinking, his expression suddenly became serious.

She walked quickly to Daiyu's side, snatched the wine glass from her hand, and said distressedly: "Miss, what's wrong with you? Why are you torturing yourself like this?"

Daiyu raised her head, looked at Xiaoling, and tears suddenly flowed down.

Xiaoling looked at Daiyu distressedly and sighed softly. She could only silently bring the sobering soup and let Daiyu drink it.

"Girl, if you really feel uncomfortable, I will go find the prince and ask him to accompany you." Xiaoling said anxiously.

When Daiyu heard the word "Prince", she cried out: "Don't go, I don't want to see him, he doesn't believe me!"

Xiaoling had no choice but to stand by and watch.

"What's wrong? Why are you so gloomy just after getting married?" The concubine came in delicately, with the maid Caiping holding a chessboard.

When Daiyu saw Jiaorou, she sobered up a little.

She hurriedly stood up from the table, straightened her clothes, and paid her respects to the concubine.

Concubine Ce waved her hand, with a gentle smile on her face, and said softly: "Come and play a game of chess with me."

Upon hearing this, Daiyu hurriedly stood up and walked quickly to the side of the concubine.

The girl next to her gently placed the chessboard on the table and stepped aside.

Daiyu and the concubine sat opposite each other, ready to start playing chess.

"I want the white pieces, and you want the black pieces." The concubine said to Daiyu with a smile.

Daiyu nodded in agreement.

The two began to place the chess pieces.

"I didn't have the courage to ask just now. It's only been a few days, why is there no sign of the prince?" The concubine asked Daiyu softly, holding the chess piece.

“Xiao Luzi just said that the prince has entered the palace.

"Concubine, why did you come to play chess with me?" Daiyu asked in confusion.

"If you don't play well, you'll lose. Look at your chess...

When Daiyu looked, she found that the black characters on her side had turned into the character "王"!

"Your mind is distracted, you won't be able to do well this way, your worries are all on your face.

Caiping, put away the chess pieces and go down. I want to talk to Princess Yu. ” Concubine Xian said with a smile.

Xiaoling brought a few plates of snacks and said with a smile: "Concubine, our daughter didn't eat well this morning. Please accompany her and have a good meal."

Daiyu suddenly asked, "Concubine, do you like Ehuang or Nvying?"

"Ehuang and Nvying?" Concubine Jin chuckled, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes. She slowly said, "I don't like either. I prefer a lifelong couple. It's a pity that the prince likes Ehuang and also favors Nvying."

Daiyu was slightly stunned. She didn't expect that the concubine would express her feelings so frankly.

"So how come you are so calm and composed and never compete for favor?" Daiyu asked curiously.

Concubine Consort smiled slightly and shook her head. "What's the point of vying for favor? It only adds to my troubles."

I just want to live my own life, not fight or compete, and be free and follow my heart."

"See this rose cake?" Concubine Consort said, pointing to the cake on the table. "It doesn't look amazing at first glance, but when you bite into it, the taste is rich. The fragrance of glutinous rice mixed with the sweetness of rose jam leaves a lingering fragrance in your mouth."

As the concubine spoke, she picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of rose cake and put it into Daiyu's mouth.

"This rose cake is so delicious!" Daiyu couldn't help but praise.

The concubine smiled and nodded, "I heard that your wedding veil didn't bleed. Although the eldest concubine asked the servants to suppress it, I still knew it. Aren't you going to interrogate your maid?"

Daiyu thought about it and felt that yes, at that time she thought it didn’t matter, as long as the prince trusted her. However, Baoyu’s sudden appearance made the prince suspicious about this matter.

"Xiaoling, go and call Caimeng." Daiyu said with a smile.

The concubine winked at Daiyu and whispered in her ear, "Don't be angry when asking, and ask in a friendly manner."

Daiyu smiled and nodded. Yes, will someone do something bad to her?

"Caimeng, did you deliver the veil that the prince and I wore on our wedding night to the eldest wife? Did you meet anyone special on the way?" Daiyu took a sip of tea and moistened her throat.

"My dear Princess, it was already late at night when I took the brocade box to the Grand Wife's place and met Princess Lang on the way.

It was so late and she didn't know where to go.

It was dark, and the servant didn't see her, so he bumped into her maid.

The box also fell, and the servant quickly picked it up.

Thinking that Langgege had a bad temper, I quickly apologized to her, but this time she didn't even look back and just left with the maid. Cai Meng said, kneeling on the ground.

"Are you sure it's Lang Gege? Her maid is also holding something in her hand?" Daiyu asked in confusion.

"Yes, I remember it was already dark at that time, and I saw Langgege's girl holding something that looked like a brocade box.

I was very surprised. It was so late, where was Langge going? But she was the master after all, so I didn't ask too many questions, so I hurried to report to the eldest wife.

"You've never opened the brocade box, have you? Who put the veil in the brocade box? Have you ever seen the veil?"

"Reporting to the princess, it was Caiyun who put the handkerchief in there.

At that time, we thought it would be okay to send it over in the evening, but we didn't expect the eldest lady to urge us to do so suddenly.

She informed Caiyun, and then Caiyun asked me to send the wedding veil to the eldest wife." Caimeng said anxiously.

"You go down first. I want to talk to your princess. Remember, don't tell anyone about this." The concubine warned Cai Meng with a serious face.

After the maids left, the concubine gently closed Daiyu's door. Daiyu looked at her in confusion.

She whispered in Daiyu's ear: "Caiyun has not been in the house for several days. In this matter, you just need to find the handkerchief and show it to the prince. If you investigate further, it will affect the whole body."

Daiyu suddenly looked at her in confusion, "We have never met before, why are you so nice to me?"

"No reason, it's just a feeling, I feel like you are the same person as me, but different.

I don’t want you to go through the days when I was trampled underfoot.” After saying this, Concubine took Daiyu’s hand and said with a smile:

"Men need to be coaxed. After the handkerchief was found, you cried, made a scene, and even threatened to hang yourself. Your family has a lot of property, and you are smart. Go learn how to manage accounts and business."

"But you bet on the wrong thing. I can't learn how to manage accounts and run a shop. I just want to live a simple life." Daiyu said helplessly.

"A dull life, living a dull life in this palace without any favor?" The concubine opened her eyes wide and looked at Daiyu in disbelief.
