What appeared in Shi Anxia's mind was not the handsome young man of King Jin.

But when he became the Rongguang Emperor, he held her hand and said, "Queen, it is enough for me to have you love me in this life."

However, at that time, the national treasury was empty, many cities were lost, and the people were in dire straits.

Her face was extremely cold, she took her hand out and responded coolly, "Your Majesty is too worried. My concubine's love has been polished and exhausted many years ago. Now, I don't love you anymore!"

Emperor Rongguang was extremely irritable, "No! You clearly love me very much! You admire me! You rely on me! No matter what happens, you will never leave me! Why don't you admit it! Admit it! Admit it quickly! I will forgive you. Not guilty!"

Shi Anxia took a step back and shook his head, "An incompetent king can't protect his wife and children, his ministers, and even the people! You should get up and take a look. What kind of disaster has Beiyi become like? Why do you have the face to do so? To meet our ancestors?"

"Shut up! Shut up!"

She picked up the memorial on the desk and read it out loud, "Mozhou was captured, Jiangcheng was captured, and all the towns along Duanhe River were captured..."

"No reading! No! No..."

She still remembers that her hands holding the folds were shaking. Provoking the king is a capital crime!

At that time, she thought that the emperor would at least depose her as queen, but he did not. Instead, after a few days, she was summoned to the palace again.

The imperial doctor said that the emperor was dying.

She entered the hall and stood in front of him indifferently.

He spoke to himself with unprecedented tenderness, "Xia'er, in the next life, I just want to be an ordinary couple with you. Never again..."

She interrupted him quietly, "I will not marry you again in my next life."

When Emperor Rongguang died, he kept staring at her without closing his eyes.

……

It was late at night, and Shi Anxia had no sleep at all.

She meditated under the candle until midnight, thinking over and over again the trajectory of her previous life.

In order to stand at the top, she lost many people and missed many things. She had coveted the emperor's love and experienced the emperor's cold heart.

In this life, although she had the appearance of a girl, her heart was riddled with holes, and she had no interest in love at all.

She just wants to make up for the regrets she feels deep down in her heart for many people and let them live a stable and smooth life.

What is more interesting now is, why did King Jin send Shi Anrou back?

Shi Anrou is Aunt Wen's biological daughter, half a year older than Shi Anxia.

After Shi Anxia disappeared, there was no legitimate lady in this generation. Since Aunt Wen was actually in charge of the palace, the servants used to call Shi Anrou "the eldest lady".

Until Shi Anxia was found when she was twelve years old, everything was back on track. Although there were still servants trying to please her, calling Shi Anrou "Miss" in private.

But after all, the name is not correct and the words are not correct. So a year ago, Aunt Wen asked Shi Anrou to go back to Ganzhou to visit relatives.

Shi Anrou actually returned to Beijing at this juncture.

But why did King Jin send Shi Anrou back to his home? Could it be that... either one of these two was reborn like her?

The thought made her heart skip a beat, and then she smiled.

In her previous life, she was blind, fell in love with King Jin at first sight, and worked hard to become King Jin's concubine.

Later, when she was pregnant, Mrs. Shi insisted on sending Shi Anrou to the palace to become the lowest concubine in order to maintain her favor.

Unexpectedly, Shi Anrou was short-sighted and was already unhappy with her. After being provoked by the women of the Jin Palace, it became a weapon to frame her again and again.

Later, when King Jin ascended the throne, Shi Anrou was only a nighter at the lowest level in the harem and had never been favored by the emperor.

Shi Anxia was so lost in thought that when it was almost dawn, she lay down on the couch with her clothes on and fell asleep. However, she only slept for two hours when she was woken up by Mrs. Chen's mother beside Mrs. Shi.

It sounded like Bei Hui was stopping people from rushing in, "Mother Chen, please stop. Our girl doesn't fall asleep until dawn, and her health is not good, so don't disturb her."

Mother Chen said in a condescending manner, "What time is this? We old ladies are all up, but you girls are still sleeping. How can you behave like this? If this gets spread, it will make people laugh."

Shi Anxia sat up and pinched his eyebrows.

She was deeply impressed by this mother Chen.

This man was a servant who accompanied Aunt Wen from Ganzhou to the capital, and he was accustomed to flattery and flattery. Not only was Aunt Wen's confidant, but he was also valued by Mrs. Shi.

But the reason why Shi Anxia remembered her was because she was Nan Yan's mother-in-law in her previous life.

Nan Yan did not follow Shi Anxia to the Jin Palace because she was coaxed by her son Chen Jinfu's sweet words.

After Shi Anxia married into the Jin Palace, everything went wrong. She struggled with the wives and concubines and had no time to pay attention to Nanyan's life outside the palace.

As a result, Nan Yan was lost to other gamblers by her husband who was addicted to gambling.

Nan Yan was still pregnant at that time, and after being raped, she came back crying and asked her mother-in-law to make the decision.

It was this mother Chen who, in front of the neighbors, pointed at her nose and scolded her for being shameless, saying that she had just come out of another man's bed, how could he have the nerve to tell her that she was pregnant? She also said that she didn’t know whose seed was in her belly!

After this commotion, all the neighbors knew about it.

Chen Jinfu pretended to be kind and quietly settled Nanyan, but lost her to another person within a few days.

After being raped again, Nan Yan was so heartbroken that she hung herself on the door beam of Chen's mother's house with a few feet of white silk.

……

When Shi Anxia thinks about it now, she still feels a stinging pain like suffocation.

Her eyes were gloomy and she shouted loudly, "Bei Fen!"

Bei Hui agreed and quickly opened the curtain and went in with an unhappy look on his face.

Then Mother Chen followed her into the house and muttered, "Girl, it's time to change the girls in your house. There is no distinction between superiority and inferiority, and disrespect for the elderly. Don't spread the word and damage the girl's reputation."

Shi Anxia let Bei Hui wait on her to dress and wash herself. Hearing this, he tilted his head and asked, "Mother Chen, who is the most respected and who is the most humble?"

Mother Chen's face turned pale when she was asked, "This..."

Shi Anxia added, "So, Mother Chen came to my girl's yard to point at her nose and scold her. Is this a sign of superiority or inferiority? Or do you think you can take the place of the master of the Hou Mansion and make the decision?"

Mother Chen's face turned green and white, "That's not what I meant. I sent a message for the old lady to ask the girl to go to He'an Courtyard."

Shi Anxia turned away indifferently and said nothing more.

Just when she was going out, she said a few words lightly, "Since Mrs. Chen knows the rules so well, she will have to punish herself if she makes a mistake. Otherwise, if word spreads, it will be thought that the Hou Mansion is not strict, and the old lady will not be harmed." Don’t be too harsh on yourself, just go to Mingsong Hall and kneel for three hours, I will be able to tell you about it at my grandmother’s place.”

After saying that, he gave Bei Hui a look.

Bei Hui couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and said happily, "Yes, miss, I will send Mother Chen to Mingsong Hall right now."

Mother Chen's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and her whole body was shaking with anger.

In He'an Courtyard, Shi Anxia greeted the old lady and saw Shi Anrou standing behind the old lady, squeezing her shoulders.

Seeing her coming in, Shi Anrou hurriedly walked out from behind the old lady and gave her a gentle blessing, "I've met the eldest lady."
