Chapter 119 The Lady Ordered to Marry a Beggar
When the emperor and his favorite concubine, Bai Yueguang, were on a secret visit to the south of the Yangtze River, they met a wealthy family who was throwing a ball of embroidery to find a wife.
Mr. Qian originally invited young talents from all over Suzhou City, all of whom had good character and appearance.
But Concubine Bai just loves to join in the fun.
She asked the secret guard beside her to pull over a beggar with intact hands and feet. When Qian Wanqing was about to throw the embroidery ball to the man she liked, the secret guard suddenly threw a stone, and the embroidery ball turned and landed in the beggar's arms.
Qian Wanqing: Are you fucking sick?
Mr. Qian went out and asked the beggar, "Do you have an invitation?"
The beggar shook his head.
"My dear brother, according to the rules, only those with invitations can come in and grab the embroidered ball. So this time the embroidered ball toss doesn't count."
Concubine Bai, "Nonsense! You said your daughter would marry whoever got the embroidered ball first. Are you going back on your word because you think this man is ugly?"
Mr. Qian thought this man was unreasonable. After all, he was a well-known figure in Suzhou City. How could he let someone shit on his head?
"Madam, and sir, do you have an invitation?"
Of course the emperor and the imperial concubine didn't have any, they came in by climbing over the wall.
Concubine Bai was furious. "How dare you! This is the current emperor, and I am the current concubine. How dare you speak to us like that?"
How could a group of ordinary people have ever seen what an emperor looked like? They were so frightened that they all knelt on the ground, silent as a mouse.
Concubine Bai was satisfied. "Beggars are also the emperor's subjects and should be treated equally. Mr. Qian resisted this young man. But what is he dissatisfied with the emperor?"
Mr. Qian was so frightened that he dared not say a word.
Qian Wanqing said, "I am willing to marry you!"
On that day, Concubine Bai coquettishly asked the emperor to write the words "Heaven-sent marriage" on a plaque and hang it on the door of Qian's mansion. They also attended the wedding banquet before leaving.
Once the beggar gained power, he would eat and drink as much as he could with his friends, play with cats and dogs, and even wanted to seize the property of the Qian family.
Whenever the Qian family was dissatisfied, the beggar would bring up the divine marriage and ask, "Are you dissatisfied with the current emperor?"
The Qian family had thought about how to get rid of the beggar, but how could it be so easy? He was a traitor, and he had many schemes. Moreover, since it was an imperial marriage, how many eyes would be watching?
In this way, the beggar swallowed up the Qian family's property bit by bit and killed all the members of the Qian family.
"I don't want to marry a beggar! I want the emperor's kingdom!" Qian Wanqing said angrily, "I just don't understand why the imperial concubine is so malicious towards me? What good will it do her if I marry a beggar?"
"She was jealous that you were prettier than she was, and you were amused by that. And then she instigated the beggar to seize your family property, actually for her own benefit. After all, money is needed in the palace, too. So the beggar sent most of his money to the palace."
Sheng Jiang looked at Qian Wanqing with sympathy. Such a good girl was bullied by someone.
"Do you want to take revenge yourself?" asked Ginger.
"Yes! Of course I do! I want to marry my concubine to a beggar too!"
"Come, let's learn first." Sheng Jiang pulled Qian Wanqing into the space and learned martial arts, medicine and poisons.
……
On this day, it is the day of throwing the ball of embroidery.
Qian Wanqing stood upstairs, looking down. A breeze blew off her veil, revealing a stunningly beautiful face.
An ancient poem says:
“There is a beautiful woman in the North, peerless and independent.
Regardless of the city, consider the country.
Would you rather not know that she is the most beautiful woman in the world? It is hard to find a beautiful woman again. "
It really stunned everyone in the audience.
There was a greedy look in the beggar's eyes, and his saliva was flowing out, which made Concubine Bai feel disgusted.
Qian Wanqing found the emperor's position and saw that he was staring at her blankly. She sneered in her heart: Ha! Man!
No matter how much he says he dotes on Bai Yueguang, he is still vulnerable in front of her beauty.
Qian Wanqing walked to the left and the crowd followed her to the left. She walked to the right and the crowd followed her to the right.
The emperor, who considered himself a gentleman, just stood there motionless, as if he didn't care who the bouquet was thrown to.
Qian Wanqing led the crowd to the left, made a throwing gesture, and when everyone gathered together, she instantly ran to the right and threw the hydrangea straight to the emperor.
Although Concubine Bai had hinted to the secret guard long ago, the small stone in the secret guard's hand smashed the hydrangea directly into the emperor's arms. Who told him to cross his arms?
The hydrangea seemed to be stuck on his body. Concubine Bai was so anxious that she couldn't get it off no matter how hard she tried. She looked at the secret guard with a dead look in her eyes.
The secret guard trembled, my life is over!
You deserve it! You're an accomplice to the evildoer!
Mr. Qian walked up to the emperor. Needless to say, the emperor also looked handsome and suave.
"Congratulations, young man. You accepted my daughter's bouquet and can marry her today!"
Concubine Bai was anxious. "You bastard! Who the hell do you think you are? How dare you arrange a marriage for someone else?"
Mr. Qian was puzzled, but he still spoke patiently, "Madam, according to the rules, whoever receives my daughter's bouquet is the one she will marry."
"Would you be willing to have your daughter become my husband's concubine?"
Mr. Qian was also angry. "Madam, I sent out invitations a few days ago, and all of them were invited to unmarried men in Suzhou City. Since you are already married, I never sent invitations to you. How did you two get in?"
Qian Wanqing walked over and said, "Dad, the rule is that I will marry whoever grabs the embroidered ball. If this gentleman gets it, I'm willing to be your concubine. Maybe this is a match made in heaven."
Mr. Qian was surprised.
Only the emperor was delighted, but because Bai Yueguang was beside him, he pretended to be serious. But the corners of his mouth were raised, and even AK couldn't suppress it. All of this was naturally seen clearly by Concubine Bai, and she looked at Qian Wanqing with vicious eyes.
"This really opened my eyes! There are actually shameless women like you in this world, eager to become someone's concubine!"
"Do you know who this person is? How dare you be so presumptuous!"
"No matter who they are, they are all subjects of the current emperor. We should treat them all equally, don't you agree?"
Why does this sound so familiar? Concubine Bai's face turned green.
"How dare you! This is the current emperor! And I am the current imperial concubine! You want to enter the palace and seek wealth and glory? Do you think you are worthy?"
The people below were so scared that they knelt on the ground and shouted "Long live the emperor".
Inwardly, she despised him: Hey, she just belittled others for being a concubine, but she's also a concubine? Just the emperor's concubine. No wonder she stopped Miss Qian. Perhaps she was afraid she'd compete for her favor?
"Your Highness, how dare you slander me like this? It's just because Your Majesty accepted the bouquet. According to the rules, this is a match made in heaven. I dare not disobey the will of heaven."
"you!"
Qian Wanqing's pitiful appearance pleased the emperor, "In that case, you can enter the palace in three days."
"Yes! I, a commoner, bow down to thank the Emperor for his grace!"
After the emperor left, Mr. Qian was worried. "My daughter, the palace is a place where people are eaten without leaving any bones. What should I do?"
"Father, even if I don't enter the palace, the Imperial Concubine won't let us go. Father, haven't you noticed? The Imperial Concubine has arranged for a beggar to come and pick up my bouquet. My daughter will be forced to marry a beggar, and she won't be able to break off the engagement. It will be a life worse than death. It's better for me to enter the palace and try my luck at a better future."
More than half a month later, Qian Wanqing entered the palace. No matter what happened, the harem was managed by Concubine Bai.
Concubine Bai arranged for Qian Wanqing to stay in a remote palace farthest from Chengqian Palace. It was overgrown with weeds and looked no different from a cold palace.
Qian Wanqing didn't care, because she had already made the emperor fall in love at first sight.
When they went to pay their respects to the Queen that day, all the concubines had already arrived, except Concubine Bai, who was late.
"I'm not too late, am I?" Concubine Bai chuckled. "The Emperor was late in reading the memorials last night, and I'm a little late in making amends. I hope the Empress won't mind."
The queen had no expression on her face. "Stand up."
Coming out of the Queen's Palace, Concubine Bai looked at Qian Wanqing, her eyes nearly blazing with anger. Then, thinking of something, she began to sarcastically say, "Concubine Qian, are you used to where you stayed last night? Logically, as a newcomer to the palace, the Emperor would definitely turn your name over. It's a pity that despite all the scheming, you still can't win the Emperor's favor."
"Of course I can't compare to the Imperial Concubine, who can learn the brothel style and intercept people halfway. The Imperial Concubine's family really taught her well," Qian Wanqing retorted bluntly.
"You! How dare you commit treason?!"
Concubine Bai looked at the maid beside her and said, "Xiaozhi, it seems that the maple leaves are not red enough this year!"
Xiaozhi understood what he meant and told the eunuchs to capture Qian Wanqing and give her a hundred strokes of the cane.
"Your Highness, you are too overbearing!" Qian Wanqing was furious. "I am a talented woman appointed by the Emperor himself!"
Concubine Bai looked down at him, "I am the Concubine appointed by the Emperor himself!"
The maidservants and eunuchs standing by said: Holy shit! How can you compare size like this?
Just at this moment, the emperor arrived.
When he saw that his beloved was about to suffer such a severe punishment, he hurried forward, pulled Qian Wanqing into his arms, and immediately reprimanded Concubine Bai.
"I think you are becoming more and more presumptuous! How can you manage the harem with such arrogance and dominance? I'm afraid that anyone who has a grudge against you will be beaten to death by you!"
Concubine Bai glared and acted coquettishly, "Your Majesty! I only scolded her a little because she was disrespectful to me."
"Really? Then your reprimand is truly unique!" The emperor looked at her coldly, "Come here! Imperial Concubine Bai is lacking in virtue and acting arrogantly, so she is demoted to a concubine!"
Concubine Bai was stunned and immediately knelt down. "Your Majesty, my father is currently in Yong'an County dealing with flooding. Isn't Your Majesty afraid that my father will flood the capital in a fit of rage?"
Concubine Bai: Damn it! How could I say such a thing? My family is in danger.
Concubine Bai was trembling with fear and was about to beg for mercy, but she opened her mouth and said, "Your Majesty can be considerate of the families of other concubines, so why can't you be considerate of my family?"
The emperor's face turned green, and then turned pale again when he issued an imperial decree, declaring the imperial concubine a commoner and executing her immediately.
Qian Wanqing pleaded, "Your Majesty, Concubine Bai is wrong, but her crime is not punishable by death. She must be suffering from a madness. Please spare her life."
"My Wanqing is kind-hearted." So the emperor ordered Bai Yueguang to be demoted to a commoner, and the palace she lived in was turned into a cold palace.
Is that the end? Of course not.
That night, the emperor turned over Qian Wanqing's nameplate and was on his way to her palace. He passed by Bai Yueguang's palace and heard an unbearable sound coming from inside.
The emperor was furious and ordered the door to be broken open. Sure enough, he saw his white moonlight and a lunatic making love, oblivious to the world. Bai Yueguang's red mandarin duck bellyband was still hanging on the lunatic's belt.
The emperor felt an environmental color above his head.
What’s even more infuriating is that the madman turned out to be the beggar that Bai Yueguang arranged to snatch the hydrangea when she went to the south of the Yangtze River!
The key point is that from the time they broke down the door to the time they came in, the two men were still moving for such a long time that the emperor was instantly defeated!
I am not even as good as a beggar?
How could he take so long?
After a moment's reaction, I realized that the focus shouldn't be here. I'm the emperor! This damn bitch!
Immediately ordered Concubine Bai's nine clans to play the elimination game!
Beggars have no nine clans, they will be torn into pieces by five horses!
"Your Majesty, please spare me. I must have been framed! I beg Your Majesty to investigate!" Concubine Bai was finally able to speak normally.
The emperor kicked her over and said, "Framed? You hold a high position of power in the Prime Minister's Mansion. You are the only one in the palace who is so powerful that even the Empress doesn't compete with you. Who else could frame you?"
"I've changed my mind! Since you like this beggar so much, why not throw you into the beggar's den and enjoy you slowly!"
"No, Your Majesty!"
Bai Yueguang crawled out crying, but unfortunately the emperor had already gone far away.
Suddenly, she felt that this shouldn't be the case. She was the most favored concubine in the harem, the peerless beauty who made all the other beauties pale in comparison, and the emperor's childhood sweetheart and white moonlight. Why did it turn out like this?
Seeing how painful she was, Qian Wanqing kindly gave her the memories of her previous life.
After a long while, Bai Yueguang regained consciousness and saw Qian Wanqing in front of him, his eyes bloodshot. "It's you? You ruined everything for me! You will die a miserable death! You bitch!"
"It's all karma. My Lady, I've watched you walk step by step to where you are today. What's your motivation?"
"Humph, if I can kill you once, I can kill you a second time. I failed this time. If there is an afterlife, I will definitely wipe out the entire family!"
"What a pity, you have no chance, and no afterlife, because I will send your soul to the eighteenth level of hell! You will never be reborn!" Qian Wanqing chuckled.
"Bitch! Bitch!"
Soon she could no longer curse because Qian Wanqing cut off her tongue.
Qian Wanqing didn't want to sleep with him. That most noble man in the world, apart from his status, was not even as good as an ordinary person. A complete ordinary man.
So when the emperor came to find her, she gave him hallucinogens and let him play with himself.
Qian Wanqing found a little puppy and gave birth to a beautiful child.
In recent years, because of the love at first sight talisman, the emperor has been extremely fond of Qian Wanqing, even making her the queen and the child she gave birth to the prince.
The prince was able to speak eloquently when he was 6 years old and could handle state affairs on his own when he was 7 years old.
In this case, the emperor's tool is of no use. A bowl of medicine made him suddenly ill and bedridden.
The imperial doctors were helpless.
A group of people were discussing the emperor's funeral arrangements, and Qian Wanqing went in to see him.
Perhaps it was a sudden revelation that cleared the emperor's mind. "Wanqing, have you ever loved me in all these years? Even a little bit?"
"You might as well tell the emperor that every day I'm with you makes me feel extremely disgusted!"
"You!" When the emperor died of anger, his eyes were still wide open. Did this mean he died with his eyes open?
The emperor passed away and the new emperor ascended the throne.
Hehe, the emperor's kingdom finally fell into the hands of the Qian family.
