Chapter 918: Chapter 916

She closed her eyes.

Because the entire process was in darkness, and for some reason, there weren’t many people sitting around.

It was Chu Yifei.

His emotions became even more inscrutable, only saying one sentence: "The movie has started."

It wasn’t clear if he was aware of what had just happened, or not. Si Limo, however, wasn’t without grace; he gave a faint smile and quickly became quiet.

As the movie unfolded, Yeqian truly became engrossed in the film, paying no attention to whatever had happened beside him.

The story took place in a specific era. Di Ge was a noble young lady from a reputable family, raised in a sheltered environment, well-educated and courteous, praised by all for her virtue and goodness.

The ancient style residence, every piece of interior decoration so authentically restored. Pavilions and towers, scholarly decorations; everything exuded a sense of historical accomplishment.

Everyone was discussing the marriage of the Di Family’s daughter, the surname Di itself has always conveyed a subtle feeling since ancient times.

Di, Emperor.

The Di Family was originally of the Tuoba Clan.

Three hundred years ago, the Di Family saved someone from the Emperor’s clan, and the Emperor personally bestowed upon them the surname Di, which has been passed down to this day.

The beginning of the movie was quite plain, undoubtedly describing a woman’s suffering at the hands of the harem, with the Emperor seeming to never really like his wife, thus allowing his original wife to be bullied by his concubines.

Although the role of the Emperor Fo Zhu wasn’t on screen much, the audience knew from the Empress’s miserable state in the harem that this was another loathsome Emperor addicted to the beauty of his concubines.

No matter how you put it, the Empress was the original match, and this kind of mistreatment towards the original spouse, favoring mistresses too much, was just outrageous.

The scene quickly shifted to a courtyard within the Palace.

The dilapidated Middle Palace.

Qiao Xiaren, who played the Empress, quickly appeared on screen, with what appeared to be a very common role - a wife unloved by her husband, harboring feelings for her husband and various mistresses, meek and virtuous Empress.

The Empress sat in the courtyard, seemingly hearing laughter from the garden. Qiao Xiaren lowered her head, her eyes seemingly reflecting the sun, red as if crying.

Clearly, a desolate woman unloved by her husband, her figure as thin as a bamboo pole, as if a gust of wind could blow her away.

Her personal Palace Maid Xiaocui mentioned that the recent laughter was from the Emperor and the newly favored Concubine playing nearby.

Three years ago, Concubine Liang bore the Emperor a little Princess, who was much adored by the Emperor and whom he played with every day.

"I was unaware that Concubine Liang had borne him a daughter."

Di Ge gave a slightly bitter smile. Once, she and he also had a child, but it was unfortunate that the child left this world before having a chance to be born.

Tears welled up in Xiaocui’s eyes, unable to help herself; she reached up to wipe the tear at the corner of her eye.

My lady, you are truly suffering yourself.

Concubine Liang’s family is powerful and influential, not only wielding power in the imperial court but now in the harem as well. Relying on the Emperor’s favor, she practically does as she pleases in the Palace.

Di Ge had not tended to her hair or attended to her makeup in a long time, looking all of twenty years yet as aged as a woman in her thirties or forties.

Out of nowhere, a loveable little girl came running over, her eyes rolling cutely, extremely adorable.

Di Ge was exceedingly delighted and took an inexplicable liking to her, reaching out to hold her, but she was intercepted by Fo Zhu who hurried over. He lowered his head to pick up his daughter, giving her a very wary glance before leaving.
