Chapter 49: Concubine Su's New Ambition and Plans for Change
The He family's sudden downfall, like the instant collapse of a towering edifice, unleashed a devastating storm of investigation throughout the imperial court. Those who had once been affiliated with the He family, once arrogant and domineering, were now like frightened birds, perpetually in a state of panic. Following the imperial court's strict orders, all factions launched a full-scale investigation, leaving no trace of the case unturned.
Day after day, in this drastic crackdown, the He family's cliques were gradually uncovered, and their former prestige was completely shattered. Within the court, everyone was in fear, trembling in silence, fearing that even the slightest association with the He family would bring about fatal disaster. After this turmoil, the court finally ushered in a brief period of stability and peace, but beneath the surface of calm, undercurrents continued to surge.
Tensions within the harem continued to mount. Imprisoned in Canxin Palace, the Empress, her former dignity fading, now unkempt and haggard. She wept daily, cursing Concubine Su across the empty palace, wishing she could devour her alive. Concubine He Shu, devastated by the demise of the He family, was like a withered flower, finally fading, leaving behind only a fleeting spirit.
Concubine Su sat alone in her palace, her cheek resting lightly on her hand, her beautiful eyes filled with fatigue and boredom. She knew clearly that although the He family's downfall had temporarily brought peace to the situation, the harem's internal struggles were like a bottomless whirlpool that could draw her inexorably if she wasn't careful.
One day, sunlight streamed through the window lattice. Concubine Su was trimming flowers with golden shears, but her thoughts were running wild like a wild horse. She recalled modern life, a time of freedom. She could go shopping with a few friends and wander through the bustling city. She could sing to her heart's content, releasing her inner joy. She could talk and joke freely, unconcerned about what others might think. As long as she stayed within the law and moral standards, she could live as she pleased, enjoying the beauty of freedom.
Now, as a noble concubine, I had to rise before dawn each day, meticulously dress, and pay my respects to the Empress Dowager. Any slip-up would be met with criticism. Palace etiquette was incredibly complex. Eating required numerous rules, walking required meticulous grace and delicate steps, and even speaking required careful deliberation and careful selection of words. Interacting with the other concubines required extreme vigilance, forcing me to guard against subtle attacks. I felt like a caged bird, seemingly adorned in finery and enjoying every luxury, yet in reality, I had no freedom or happiness.
Thinking of this, Su Jin couldn't help but swear secretly again: "I can help Concubine Su Xian from the cold palace, defeat her enemies, and help her regain the emperor's favor, and even make the emperor want her but can't get her. Can't I also clean up this harem?"
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, her eyebrows raised. "What nonsense! They should all be simplified! Those luxurious clothes are no match for modern comfort. This huge harem, besides the garden to admire the flowers, doesn't even have a place for the sisters to gather and chat. This can't be allowed. We must have it! As for the concept of hierarchy, although equality for everyone may be difficult, who can know if it works unless we try?"
"Damn!" Concubine Su couldn't help but let out a coquettish cry. She recalled her own life in the modern era, where she'd worked hard since childhood, studying diligently. After graduation, she was filled with hope, anticipating a bright future. Only to be ruthlessly betrayed by her scumbag boyfriend, who even leaked her photos and abandoned her. The thought of this ignited a rage within her. "Hmph, relying on others is worse than relying on yourself. Roll up! Even if I were to travel here, I could still carve out a new world for you!"
With this in mind, Concubine Su began to carefully plan her plan. She knew that the key to her success lay in the Emperor's attitude. Therefore, the first step was to find a way to win his support. However, the Emperor's mind was more unpredictable than the weather in June, and she had no idea if her plan would succeed. Well, let's wait and see!
Hehe, maybe the emperor will fall for Concubine Su’s tricks. Just wait and see how Concubine Su will turn the harem upside down!
