"Xia Hou Shizi is resourceful and should know about us siblings' background. Our birth mother is a lowly palace maid who was carefully selected by Empress Zhou to be sent to Imperial Father's dragon bed after being unable to conceive for many years and being criticized by the court officials. She was a shield to block the mouths of the court officials, a prop, and an object that was not taken seriously at all." Xiao Minglan closed her eyes. Her voice was very tired and a thick sneer escaped from her lips.
"However, this object's belly was very strong and not long after, she became pregnant with my elder sister. Empress Zhou immediately sent an imperial physician to diagnose and found out that it was a girl. Only then did she spare my mother's life. In the years that followed, my mother and my elder sister carefully made a living under her. To be honest, Empress Zhou treated my mother very well. She gave my mother silk and satin, wealth, splendor, and did not treat my mother unfairly. She even gave her honor and preferential treatment that far exceeded that of a concubine, causing countless people to be jealous. However, no one knew that every evening when my mother went to the Phoenix Algae Palace to pay her respects, there would be a bowl of contraceptive pills silently placed in front of my mother, waiting to be swallowed mouthful by mouthful. Ten years passed like this. Imperial Father seemed to have completely forgotten about my mother and only then did he give my mother a chance to catch her breath. Unexpectedly, by chance, Imperial Father looked at my elder sister who was gradually growing up to be slender and elegant, and thought of my mother again. Because of this, behind Empress Zhou's back, my mother became pregnant with me.
My mother was extremely scared. She knew that if Empress Zhou knew about this news, she would definitely be furious. In order to protect my life and let me come to this world safely, she made the boldest decision in her life, which was to conceal the news of her pregnancy and claim that she was ill. In order to prevent her figure from being seen by others, she only dared to eat very little every day. Even when she vomited during pregnancy, she only dared to do it quietly in the dead of night and did not dare to make a sound.
Those ten years of cautiousness took effect. Empress Zhou did not expect my mother to have such courage and dare to disobey her. It wasn't until eight months later when my mother couldn't hide herself any longer that this matter was exposed. But at that time, I had already taken shape and could not be removed. In addition, Fuhuang had a son at a later age, so he was very happy. He ordered the imperial physicians to take good care of him and not let anything happen to him. Unexpectedly, Empress Zhou, who frightened her mother and sister, did not flare up. Instead, she sent palace maids, tonics, medicinal herbs, silk and satin, gold, jade and jewelry to her mother. She even personally visited her mother every day and gently comforted her. Even the harshest Imperial Censor would not be able to find any fault with it. Until the night I was born, my mother suddenly died. "
Xiao Minglan opened her eyes and sneered at Xiahou Qing. She raised her eyebrows and said, "Make a guess. How did she die?"
Xiahou Qing's face was calm, and his voice was as light as smoke, like an invisible sigh. "Difficult labor."
Xiao Minglan laughed heartily, "Hahaha, Your Highness guessed correctly. It was a difficult birth. How could such an illustrious Empress, who was like a phoenix descending from the heavens, whose appearance and virtue were impeccable, be caught by others? Everyone in the imperial physicians said that my mother died from a difficult birth. She worked hard and made great contributions. It was lamentable and lamentable. Only the two of us know that my mother's death was for me to live!
Without my birth mother, my twelve-year-old sister raised me single-handedly. In order to show that woman that we were obedient and submissive, we had to wag our tails at her feet from time to time like ingrates, begging her to turn a blind eye and give us a way out.
Then, the day finally arrived — — the day of revenge! "
