Xianxia version of Water Margin

…

Wu Shaofen is different from those women who have had enough of the life of displacement or sexlessness and are eager to become Jiang Hongfei's concubine. Even though she knows that Jiang Hongfei is better than Zhao Gou in every way, and can even make her pregnant and become a real woman to give her the glory of motherhood, she is still willing to follow Zhao Gou.

In Wu Shaofen's heart, Zhao Gou's position is irreplaceable. Whether he can overcome his hidden illness or not, she is willing to stay by his side and never leave him.

This deep affection stems from a wonderful fate.

On the eve of Wu Shaofen's birth, her father saw the "Shikang" pavilion in his dream, accompanied by a lonely white sheep. When he woke up, he welcomed her birth. The red light in the delivery room was extraordinary.

So the name "Shaofen" came into being, which is both a commemoration of the dream and a prediction of fate.

As time passed, the fourteen-year-old Wu Shaofen was selected into Zhao Gou's palace and became a maid. Everything seemed to have fulfilled the dream of "Shikang".

After her father interpreted her dream, Wu Shaofen suddenly realized that she firmly believed that she was Zhao Gou's destined partner.

From then on, Wu Shaofen was loyal to Zhao Gou and remained committed.

Now, even though Wu Shaofen was captured and taken to Jiang Hongfei's harem, she did not accept her fate like other women of Zhao Song. Instead, she was ready to lurk in Jiang Hongfei's harem, wait for an opportunity to escape, and then try to rescue Zhao Gou.

In the future, whether it was to go to the end of the world together or to help him make a comeback, she was ready to go through the ups and downs with Zhao Gou and protect this love that transcended life and death.

Wu Shaofen knew that in this harem, every step was full of thorns, and every word and action needed to be cautious. She observed everything around her with a delicate heart, not only maintaining a gentle and virtuous demeanor, but also hiding a smart and tenacious soul. Under Jiang Hongfei's eyes, she cleverly played the role of a submissive palace maid, but her heart was as hot as a raging fire, burning with endless thoughts and loyalty to Zhao Gou.

But Wu Shaofen never expected that her Wu family would send her cousin Wu Yunu to the palace to serve Jiang Hongfei, and she never expected that Zhao Gou would be brought to Song Gaozong to be humiliated.

Obviously, Jiang Hongfei, the winner, was willing to spare Zhao Gou's life for the sake of Zhao Gou's mother Wei Xianfei and Xing Bingyi, but he had to give Zhao Gou, the loser who resisted his unification, wanted to dig the Yellow River to stop the Yuan Empire's heavenly army, and was unfaithful, unfilial, unkind and unjust, some spiritual blows.

Therefore, Jiang Hongfei asked Zhao Gou to come to the new residence of his former concubines, so that Zhao Gou could see for himself how Jiang Hongfei played with his concubines.

Wu Shaofen's heart seemed to be frozen by ice at this moment. She tried hard not to let the tears in her eyes fall, because she knew that in this game of power, weakness would only become a fatal weakness. She took a deep breath, letting her reason take over again, secretly thinking about how to win a chance for Zhao Gou in this complicated situation, and also increase her chances of success for her escape plan.

At the same time, Wu Shaofen also noticed the arrival of Wu Yunu. She felt mixed emotions, worried about the safety of her sister, and helpless and angry about the family's move. But she quickly adjusted her mindset and decided to use this relationship, perhaps becoming a life-saving straw for the two sisters at a critical moment. She met with Wu Yunu privately, reasoned with her, moved her with emotion, and tried to persuade Wu Yunu to join forces with her to escape from Jiang Hongfei's harem and save Zhao Gou from the water and fire.

Wu Yunu has agreed.

Wu Shaofen is still looking for other allies.

In Wu Shaofen's eyes, this is a contest of wisdom and courage, and a testimony of love and faith. She wants to use her actions to interpret what is steadfastness and what is life and death dependence.

Although Wu Shaofen knew that this road was difficult, she believed that as long as there was love and faith in her heart, she would be fearless.

At this moment, Zhao Gou did not know what was happening in the palace of Song Gaozong.

But Wu Shaofen knew.

At this moment, in the bedroom in front of Zhao Gou, Jiang Hongfei was playing with two phoenixes.

One of the two phoenixes was Xing Bingyi, Zhao Gou's original Consort Kang, the Queen of Southern Song Dynasty whom Zhao Gou later established, and now Jiang Hongfei's Consort Kang; the other phoenix was Queen Mother Pan, who gave birth to Zhao Gou's only son and became the Queen Mother of Southern Song Dynasty in the Miao-Liu Rebellion.

As long as Zhao Gou reached the door of that room, he would definitely suffer a huge blow.

Wu Shaofen intended to stop this.

But Wu Shaofen did not dare to act rashly, she was afraid of alerting the enemy!

Just when Wu Shaofen was hesitant, Zhao Gou followed Xing Bingzhen to the bedroom in the center of Song Gaozong's palace.

Before he reached the bedroom, Zhao Gou heard the sound of silver music coming out of the palace.

Zhao Gou was once a normal man, and even had six children. How could he not recognize what this sound was?

What made Zhao Gou's heart sink was that the two obviously different voices in the bedroom were very familiar to Zhao Gou.

Soon, Zhao Gou heard who the owner of these two voices was.

Zhao Gou was very angry!

He was angry at Jiang Hongfei's excessive bullying, and at Xing Bingyi and Queen Mother Pan's positive feedback and unrestrained behavior. How could he not know that Xing Bingyi and Queen Mother Pan could make such a sound?

Zhao Gou's blood was blocked, so the blood could only flow upwards, making his face red.

After about half an hour, Jiang Hongfei finally let out a hearty hum.

Then, Queen Mother Pan said attentively and gratefully: "Thank you for the gift!"

Zhao Gou knew that it was all over, and his torment was also relieved a little.

After about an incense stick of time, the door of the bedroom opened, and then Xing Bingyi and Queen Mother Pan, whose hair was not tied up, wearing only simple clothes, and whose faces were still full of spring, escorted Jiang Hongfei out of the bedroom.

Zhao Gou's eyes subconsciously fell on Xing Bingyi, whom he had not seen for many years.

At this moment, Zhao Gou's vision was a little blurred.

Did he ever love her deeply?

The answer is self-evident, he definitely did.

That love was even deeply engraved in every corner of his heart.

In the past, Zhao Gou, a prince who was not loved by Zhao Ji, had only Xing Bingyi by his side. She was not only his wife, but also the pillar of his soul, inspiring him to move forward with endless tenderness and tenacity.

With Xing Bingyi's company, Zhao Gou gradually honed himself into a prince who was both civil and military.

However, since losing Xing Bingyi, Zhao Gou's former ambitions and passions were replaced by self-degradation, and he even fell to the point of needing a woman's protection.

What is not known is that even after all the ups and downs, even after all the hardships, Zhao Gou still treasured an earring given by Xing Bingyi, which was his unfulfilled love.

People may wonder why Zhao Gou, who held a large army, failed to save Xing Bingyi, who was right in front of him, but instead let her become Jiang Hongfei's plaything and suffer humiliation?

The truth is cruel and simple.

Zhao Gou's love is selfish and fragile after all.

Between self-preservation and deep love, he chose the former. His cowardice and selfishness made him bury his promise and love for Xing Bingyi with his own hands.

At this moment, the dusty memories surged like a tide, and Zhao Gou tried to resist, but was powerless to resist. He knew that recalling these past events might lead him to a place of no return.

At this moment, Zhao Gou's eyes accidentally swept across Xing Bingyi's high bulging belly, and complex emotions surged in his heart.

Xing Bingyi had never been pregnant with Zhao Gou.

To put it another way, even if Xing Bingyi was pregnant after Zhao Gou left, it is impossible that she could not give birth for so many years.

The answer is obvious. The child in Xing Bingyi's belly must be Jiang Hongfei's.

Zhao Gou glanced to the side and noticed that Tian Chunluo, Jiang Zuimei and several other women in Zhao Gou's palace had children of different sizes around them or in their arms. Tian Chunluo, like Xing Bingyi, had a slightly bulging belly.

"Are all these children Jiang Yan's?!!!"

At this moment, Zhao Gou was furious that Jiang Hongfei had played with all his women, and he was jealous of Jiang Hongfei's strong fertility!

Zhao Gou clenched his fists, his knuckles turned white, and the anger in his chest was like wildfire, which was difficult to contain. He looked around. Those gentle places that once belonged to him have now become the cradle of Jiang Hongfei's offspring. Every childish laugh was like a heavy knock on his heart, making him both painful and angry.

"Jiang Yan, how dare you bully me like this!" He roared in his heart, his voice mixed with suppressed anger, as if it would explode at any time.

Zhao Gou knew that this was not just about the fight for women, but also the trampling of his dignity. He never thought that he would be humiliated like this.

At this time, Xing Bingyi, who was still talking and laughing with Jiang Hongfei, also saw Zhao Gou.

Xing Bingyi's expression was shocked at first, and even a little at a loss, and then her eyes began to dodge.

But soon, Xing Bingyi's eyes became firm.

Zhao Gou loved Xing Bingyi, and Xing Bingyi also loved Zhao Gou?

Zhao Gou and Xing Bingyi, a past of love and hate, is like an indelible ripple in the long river of history.

In this polygamous world, Zhao Gou's deep affection may be shared with many beauties, but Xing Bingyi's love for Zhao Gou is pure and resolute, like the brightest star in the night sky, illuminating the trajectory of her entire world.

Let's put it this way, Zhao Gou was not the only one who kept Xing Bingyi's earring. Xing Bingyi also kept another earring.

However, Xing Bingyi had already treasured that earring. No, it should be said that Xing Bingyi treasured that earring in the deepest part of her heart, just like Xing Bingyi's love for Zhao Gou.

Xing Bingyi's heart was once Zhao Gou's exclusive harbor. The earring she treasured was not only a material commemoration, but also a symbol of her endless longing for Zhao Gou in her heart. She had imagined countless times that Zhao Gou could come like a savior, lead thousands of troops, break through many obstacles, rescue her from the predicament, make the separated earring complete again, and become a witness to their love.

However, reality is like a cold shackle, and Zhao Gou's choice chilled her. He held a heavy army, but failed to swing the sword for her. Instead, he walked away until he disappeared in the skyline of Tokyo Bianliang.

Zhao Gou's constant escape without any intention of surrendering angered Jiang Hongfei, and then Jiang Hongfei finally took possession of Xing Bingyi, Zhao Gou's mother Wei, Tian Chunluo, Jiang Zuimei, and other women in Zhao Gou's palace, just like he took possession of other royal daughters and clan daughters of the Zhao Song Dynasty.

At that time, Xing Bingyi had already begun to resent Zhao Gou.

Because Xing Bingyi knew very well that Jiang Hongfei had indeed given Zhao Gou enough time. As long as Zhao Gou led his troops to attack the city of Tokyo Bianliang, it would be possible to rescue her who was still clean, and Zhao Gou would not have to wear these green hats.

Zhao Gou's escape and inaction not only made Xing Bingyi fall into despair, but also made her a plaything of Jiang Hongfei.

In those stormy moments, Xing Bingyi was forced to endure unspeakable humiliation, and her resentment towards Zhao Gou quietly grew.

Xing Bingyi knew very well that it was Zhao Gou's abandonment that made her lose her last innocence and dignity.

Xing Bingyi had imagined that Zhao Gou would give up everything for her, even if it meant bowing to the enemy, but Zhao Gou's choice completely disappointed her. His heart was far away in Jiangnan, no longer belonging to her, nor to those old people who had shared hardships with him.

Later, when Xing Bingyi heard that Zhao Gou was having a good time outside, and had taken in many beauties, and Queen Mother Pan had given birth to Zhao Gou's son, he was determined to establish his own regime in Jiangnan.

Xing Bingyi knew that she and Zhao Gou were completely a thing of the past.

Moreover, at that time, Xing Bingyi gave birth to a son and a daughter for Jiang Hongfei.

Everything had become a foregone conclusion.

The torrent of time washed away everything, and Xing Bingyi found a new position beside Jiang Hongfei and became Jiang Hongfei's Concubine Kang.

Xing Bingyi tried to make herself forget the past and focus on the life in front of her, but the trick of fate made her meet Zhao Gou again.

The once sunny and handsome boy has now become vicissitudes and gloomy. The years have left deep marks on his face, and also caused layers of waves in Xing Bingyi's heart.

Facing Zhao Gou's sudden appearance, Xing Bingyi felt mixed emotions. She was surprised, confused, and even had a moment of trance, thinking that it was just a dream.

But Xing Bingyi soon woke up and knew that everything was irreversible.

Xing Bingyi was no longer the girl who was full of longing for love, but the Kangfei of Jiang Hongfei who had experienced the vicissitudes of life and became tough.

That's right.

Xing Bingyi chose to let go and let the past be the past. She will continue to be by Jiang Hongfei's side, play her role well, and no longer be troubled by past emotions.

However, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop. Just when Xing Bingyi was pregnant with Jiang Hongfei's child again, Zhao Gou suddenly appeared in front of Xing Bingyi, like a thunderbolt breaking the quiet sky.

Zhao Gou did not let hatred and humiliation consume his reason. He quickly calmed down his emotions and bowed to Jiang Hongfei, Xing Bingyi and Queen Mother Pan in a humble manner, saying clearly: "I, your son Zhao Gou, pay my respects to my father, Concubine Kang, and Concubine Pan."

This scene shocked everyone present.

Zhao Gou, once the king of a country, was now willing to kneel before his former opponent and old love.

He knelt before Jiang Hongfei, as it should be, after all, the winner is the king;

But he also knelt before his former bedmate, calling himself "your son". This resigned attitude undoubtedly placed Xing Bingyi and Queen Mother Pan in the position of elders, or even mothers.

Zhao Gou acted calmly in this way, but the women who originally belonged to Zhao Gou, especially Xing Bingyi and Queen Mother Pan, felt mixed emotions and could not express it in words.

Xing Bingyi's heart was full of ups and downs. She had heard that Zhao Gou was captured by Jiang Hongfei and his ministers, and was imprisoned in Wanguo City. She also knew that Jiang Hongfei was about to meet him.

Wei had come with a plea, hoping that she could plead for Zhao Gou together, but Xing Bingyi chose to refuse.

It was not that she was ruthless, but Zhao Gou's actions had already made her disheartened. She had given birth to a child for Jiang Hongfei, was pregnant with a new baby, and her family had also surrendered to the Yuan Empire. There was already a huge gap between her and Zhao Gou, and there was an unbridgeable gap.

However, people's hearts are always complicated and unpredictable. In the battle between reason and emotion, Xing Bingyi was unable to completely give up the old feelings. She finally tactfully pleaded with Jiang Hongfei, hoping that he would show mercy to Zhao Gou.

What made Xing Bingyi relieved and grateful was that Jiang Hongfei agreed to spare Zhao Gou's life for the sake of her and Concubine Wei.

It is precisely because of this that Xing Bingyi, who was pregnant, still worked hard to serve Jiang Hongfei and satisfy all of Jiang Hongfei's desires.

Xing Bingyi had thought about meeting Zhao Gou again, but she never expected that Zhao Gou would appear in front of her when she had just served Jiang Hongfei.

At this moment, facing this sudden reunion, Xing Bingyi's heart was once again rippled, and it took a long time to calm down.

The appearance of Zhao Gou not only broke Xing Bingyi's peaceful life, but also forced her to re-examine the past between her and Zhao Gou. Those vows of love and the years they spent together now seem like an unattainable dream. She knew that she could no longer return to Zhao Gou's side, nor could she trust and rely on him unconditionally as before.

But even so, she could not deny the complex emotions in her heart - hatred, resentment, pity, and reluctance...
