Erfu sat in front of the mirror and watched the unfamiliar maid taking off the phoenix crown on her head bit by bit. He accidentally caught her hair. She hissed in a low voice, and the maids immediately knelt down in panic.

She shook her head and asked them to stand up. The person in the mirror was her but not her. She became the most noble woman in the world overnight. Your family is a famous family and has a good reputation around them.

She was just greedy and wanted to buy rose cakes the day before yesterday. Unexpectedly, she met Qi Yuan, who forcibly took her into the palace and directly named her queen.

It was too late to regret anything now. She sat by the bed, waiting for Qi Yuan to open the door and come in to have sex with her.

She stared at the red candle on the table with red eyes. She was almost ready to marry her cousin tomorrow.

Her cousin was a humble man, and she was her childhood sweetheart, so everyone thought they were a perfect match. She didn't dare to think too much about the happiness she had missed, for fear that she would cry in the next second.

"Beauty, beauty, hey, beauty."

Here he is, His Majesty is such a person today. Erfu bit his lip hard and tightened the hairpin in his hand. Let's die together. It would be considered a worthy death to eliminate harm for the people.

But Qi Yuan failed to reach her, so he fell forward and fell to the ground.

Erfu exclaimed in a low voice, covered her mouth and looked around helplessly, then slowly moved over and found that he was still breathing. She stood at a loss in the middle of the room, not knowing whether to run away secretly or should she run away now.

Call someone.

But before she had any extra time to think, someone came in outside the door. The person who came was very tall. He glanced down at Qi Yuan and asked someone to carry him out.

She didn't know who this man was. He was wearing a white robe, like an immortal who came to rescue her.

He walked to the table and drank the Hexin wine on the table. He pushed her glass to her side and said, "Drink it."

"Why, why?"

"Your Majesty, you don't want to be seen tomorrow morning, so your Majesty won't be here tonight."

His voice was cold, and Erfu thought about it and drank it. After drinking, she still didn't know what to do, so she could only bite her lip and glance at him secretly.

He was so well-born, but his eyes were as calm as a black pool, neither sad nor happy, and he had no emotions of a living person from the time he came in until now.

Until someone around him called his name, Mr. Pei.

Only then did she know who he was, he was Pei Lin! The evil ghost in her father's mouth, the 'Human Emperor' in the palace.

She actually mistakenly regarded him as the immortal who rescued her. Erfu took two steps back in disgust and fear, and the hairpin in his sleeve accidentally fell out.

The hairpin fell to the ground with a clatter, which was so obvious in the quiet room. He stood by the door and turned to look at her.

Erfu swallowed, his uneasy heart beating violently. If he found out, would he put her in jail or kill her directly?

But he seemed to be laughing and said, "Save it."

Her tears burst at that moment for some reason. She didn't know what he wanted to do, what she should do now, and what would be waiting for her tomorrow. She didn't even have a maid who was close and could rely on.

He frowned and said, "Isn't the empress very brave? She dares to do such a thing as assassination."

"Me," she opened her mouth and closed it again.

He turned around and left without staying any longer. Erfu didn't dare to sleep, so he kept his eyes open until dawn.

At dawn, the door of the room was pushed open violently. She shrank back and saw that it was Xiao Cui who came.

"Xiao Cui!"

"Miss!"

She rushed up and hugged Xiaocui, feeling less uneasy in her heart. She hugged tightly the only person she was familiar with now.

"Miss, are you okay? Xiaocui is so worried about Miss."

Erfu cried so hard that he couldn't speak and could only keep shaking his head.

"What did your Majesty do to the lady?"

She shook her head again and told Xiaocui what happened last night, "How did you get into the palace?"

"I don't know. Someone came to pick me up in the morning and asked me if I would like to follow the young lady into the palace. Naturally, I am absolutely willing, so here I am."

"Someone is picking you up? Who?"

"I don't know, I don't know you."

Erfu thought blankly for a while. No one she knew had such ability. She and Qi Yuan did not consummate their marriage last night. She waited in fear for a whole day and no one came to trouble her.

Later I heard that he fell asleep for two days in a row, thinking in his sleep that the two of them had already had sex.

She lived in this palace fearfully, but no one had ever come. Except for her, Xiaocui and a few servants, no one else disturbed her in the palace.

Erfu didn't understand, she thought it was God who really showed up and protected her.

She didn't know why Qi Yuan thought of her again and insisted on letting her attend the dinner party later.

"Mother, do you really want to go? Or just say you're not feeling well and turn it down," Xiao Cui asked her in a low voice as she kept pacing worriedly.

She thought that even the maids standing outside the door could not agree, let alone the Queen Mother and Her Majesty. Erfu could only shake his head and tell Xiaocui to hurry up and dress up.

When she walked into the hall, she immediately saw the person sitting at the head. He was wearing a black python robe today and looked even more scary. She walked towards him and passed him to sit next to Qi Yuan.

"My beloved concubine, long time no see, my beloved concubine is beautiful again."

Erfu smiled reluctantly and stared at the graceful dance of the dancer below in a daze.

She just had to endure it until it was over, and she insisted on persisting in her heart over and over again. She endured Qi Yuan's nausea and the pungent smell of the wine in the glass.

The banquet was not interesting, and Qi Yuan had long been impatient. He touched the little palace maid who came to pour tea with a smile. The little palace maid was young, and her face turned pale with fright. She shook her hand and the tea splashed on Qi Yuan.

"Bitch."

The singing and dancing below stopped, the dancers knelt down in fear, and the entire hall suddenly fell silent. The only sound was Qi Yuan's slaps and kicks to the little palace maid.

Erfu trembled and clenched her hands. She was beaten beyond recognition and screamed for help. She closed her eyes tightly and did not dare to take a look. She had heard about His Majesty's cruelty outside the palace, and it was true to see it with her own eyes.

The cry of the little palace maid was endless, and Erfu bit her lower lip tightly. I'm sorry, she couldn't save her, she was greedy for life and afraid of death, and she was selfish.

The smell of blood filled the hall, and Erfu looked down with tears in his eyes.

There seemed to be a group of dead people sitting below. No one was surprised, no one thought anything was wrong, and no one stopped them. They just lowered their heads and remained motionless, like dead people. What kind of place is this, that there can be such a group of people.

Her trembling pupils met Pei Lin's calm eyes, and the man glanced at her without stopping for too long.

"Help!"

In the end, there was only a heartbreaking cry for help. Qi Yuan straightened up and spat.

Erfu knew that this young palace maid was gone and was beaten to death in front of everyone.

When Erfu went back at night, he tossed and turned, all he could think about was the look in her eyes. He looked at her so pleadingly and pitifully. She was so young, maybe she entered the palace just to make a living, but he closed his eyes and chose to turn a blind eye.

She sat up in the darkness and hugged her curled up body.

She couldn't escape the condemnation of her conscience, and in the darkness she asked herself over and over again if there was a chance to save her. She was the queen now, maybe she could persuade Qi Yuan to save her life.

She woke up in the morning, sat in front of the mirror and looked at herself in the bronze mirror. She replaced the plain hairpin on her head with a more dignified and gorgeous one.

She is no longer the young lady of your family, she is the queen of a country.

Since he is in his position, he should perform his duties.

So when tonight's palace banquet, Qi Yuan grabbed the female family member sitting below and wanted to kiss Fangze, but the female family member struggled to break free. He punched and kicked her like yesterday, and she stood up.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late, why don't you go back and rest."

Erfu grabbed his arm, smiled, and tried to persuade him with kind words.

"Go away."

Qi Yuan slapped her in the face, causing her to stagger and hit her on the ground. Erfu's eyes widened and he kept blinking, unable to react for a moment. He was a madman and he would not listen to anyone's advice. But today she

I just wanted to save this life.

"Your Majesty, I haven't seen you for a long time and I miss you. Why don't you go to my concubine today?"

Erfu stood up again and looked past Qi Yuan to the eyes of the person behind her. He looked at her with deep eyes without any trace of color, as if he was mocking her for being nosy and overestimating her abilities.

"They all want to ride on my head, don't they? They all look down on me and will die if they want to!"

She was kicked to the ground again, Xiaocui cried and supported her, kneeling next to her.

The female family member was lifted up by her hair and cried out to the only person who helped her, "Mother, mother, help me, mother."

Erfu pushed himself up with difficulty, grabbed Qi Yuan's robe, and received another hard kick.

All the civil and military officials in the hall closed their eyes tightly and paid no attention. When she looked around, no one showed unbearable expressions on their faces. Even the female family members just held back tears and lowered their heads.

She didn't know what to do now, so she could only take a gamble. She grabbed another person's clothes and said, "Sir!"

He lowered his head and stared at her coldly, like looking at a dying kitten, without any reaction. Under his gaze, Erfu slowly let go of his hand. Yes, why would he help her? He was so frustrated and crazy.

.

"Catch the assassin, catch the assassin, protect His Majesty."

There was a sudden noise outside the door. Guards rushed in and formed a crowd. The crowd became a mess and ran out noisily.

As soon as Qi Yuan heard the assassin, he immediately let go of his hand and hid behind the guard, "Guard, guard, protect me quickly."

"Send His Majesty back."

"Pei Aiqing is thoughtful, I will go back immediately."

Erfu looked at the sudden turn of events in confusion. No one could think of this female family member and the empress who had just been beaten.

She staggered to her feet and grabbed the female family member, "Run, run quickly, don't enter the palace again."

The female family member did not dare to stay and ran out quickly. When she ran to the door, she turned back and glanced at her gratefully.

At this glance, Erfu felt that it was worth it.

She also smiled at her with tears in her eyes, "Let's go quickly, go far away."

The people in the palace dispersed and it became quiet. The people behind them never left or moved.

Erfu wiped away his tears, saluted him, held Xiaocui's hand and prepared to leave.

"I would like to advise you, please stop meddling in other people's business and you may live longer."

Erfu didn't look back. It's not that she didn't know this simple truth, but she couldn't turn a blind eye. She tilted her head and curled her lips, "Thank you Master Pei for your teaching, but Fulu can't do it. If you have different opinions, you won't work together, and you won't work hard."

Mr. Pei is worried."

Qi Yuan favored different women every day, and Pei Lin kept sending people in, and he gradually couldn't remember such a queen.

Erfu was also happy and at ease, so she taught her sisters to read and write in the harem. Some of them were children from poor families, and they entered this dragon's den and tiger's den just to make a living.

She was young, and most of the sisters in the palace took good care of her. However, some sisters never saw her again after seeing her once. They said goodbye, but never had the chance to see her again.

When Qi Yuan was so ridiculous that he exchanged wives and concubines, and she stopped him, there were assassins again. He ran back in a panic again, and the matter ended like this.

Erfu began to feel that something was wrong. She had never been beaten before. In addition, Qi Yuan's condition the night she first entered the palace was not as if he had drunk too much, but as if he had been drugged. Xiaocui was able to enter the palace easily.

There is only one person who can do this.

"Master Pei, why are you helping me?"

Erfu waited here for a long time before she boldly stopped him. She was so uneasy that she didn't dare to raise her head. She was a little afraid of him, but she also wanted to know why he did this.

"When did I help my empress?"

His eyes were still cold, without any emotion when he glanced over.

Erfu bit her lip in confusion, and opened her mouth not knowing what to say. It can't be said that it was all her guesses, it was unfounded.

"I am too preoccupied and have delayed Mr. Pei."

Erfu felt that she was a little funny, what could he do for her if she was not a relative, so she saluted him and left in a hurry.
