Yihui was rewarded by Princess Yongzhao to become a concubine in Prince Yan's Mansion.
Yihui's background was not bad, but due to her family's decline, she almost ended up in a brothel. Fortunately, she was rescued by Princess Yongzhao.
So for Yihui, the eldest princess Yongzhao is almost her reborn parent. Yihui is willing to sacrifice everything for the eldest princess, including her life.
Therefore, when the eldest princess wanted to send her to Prince Yan's Mansion, Yi Hui did not complain at all.
Even though she knew that King Yan could not see and had a violent temper, as long as the eldest princess asked her to go, she would go on without hesitation.
However, on the first day she came to Prince Yan's Mansion, she met a man with a silly smile and a very gentle attitude toward her.
It's Qi Shu.
Qi Shu is Leng Moran's bodyguard. He is very important and is almost Leng Moran's confidant.
Yihui only learned about this later.
When she came to Prince Yan's Mansion, she did not see Prince Yan. Some people even told her that Prince Yan would not see her, let alone get close to her. Her existence was like an ornament.
But she is not the only one who is used as a decoration.
At that time, there were already several women in Prince Yan's palace, and they were happy every day. Even though Leng Moran never came to see them, he didn't care.
Yi Hui was thinking at first, if King Yan could like her, would she be able to stay in this palace for a long time?
After all, the palace will have a mistress one day, and these women, who are nameless and have no children, may not end well.
However, before she could take action, Yihui was moved by another person.
That's right, it's not love, it's emotion.
Yihui actually didn't know what kind of feelings she had for Qi Shu, but when faced with a green young man blushing and saying love words to her, Yihui, who was also young, would be shy and blush.
Qi Shu said that he liked her very much and would marry her when he came back from completing the mission this time.
Even after King Yan learned about it, he supported the two of them being together and promised to personally organize the wedding for the two of them when Qi Shu came back.
During that time, Yihui lived with both anxiety and anticipation.
She didn't know what she would be like after marrying Qi Shu, and at the same time she was looking forward to the future.
However, this relationship ultimately ended without any problems.
Because Qi Shu didn't come back that time, or rather, he didn't come back alive.
Seeing the lively young man who had smiled at her in the past turned into a cold corpse, Yihui cried uncontrollably.
She lay on Qi Shu's coffin, crying until her heart broke.
She thought, she must love him too.
It's just that her love for Qi Shu is far less than Qi Shu's love for her.
Even at the last moment before his death, Qi Shu still held the sachet embroidered by her hand tightly in his hand, always thinking of her.
Yi Hui felt that if it were her, she probably wouldn't be able to do this to Qi Shu.
Qi Shu died, and Yi Hui initially felt that she would continue to live an ordinary life in the backyard of the palace for the rest of her life.
Leng Moran suddenly summoned her, comforted her with a gentle voice, and told her that he would take good care of her on behalf of Qi Shu.
Yi Hui understood very well that Leng Moran was good to her all because of Qi Shu.
Because of Qi Shu's relationship, Leng Moran was very relieved to use Yihui as a shield. Outsiders did not know about Yihui and Qi Shu, and they really thought that Yihui was the most favored woman in Prince Yan's palace.
Yihui was sad at first because of Qi Shu's incident, but when faced with Leng Moran, she still had thoughts that she shouldn't have.
Leng Moran was blind, so sometimes he would sit in her courtyard just to put on a show for outsiders.
There were no other servants present, so Yi Hui could stare at Leng Moran unscrupulously.
He was so good-looking and handsome, but he was the one she could only look up to forever.
Yihui was even thinking that she was originally the woman given to Prince Yan by the eldest princess. If she worked harder, could she really become the prince's woman?
Qi Shu is no longer here, does she have to stay by Qi Shu's side?
She can't do it.
After the intense psychological struggle, Yihui began to work hard silently, but she did not dare to be too obvious because Leng Moran would always mention Qi Shu in front of her from time to time.
Every time she mentioned it, Yihui always felt like betraying Qi Shu.
But Qi Shu is clearly gone.
Why should she wait impatiently for someone who is not here?
Amidst such entanglements and contradictions, Prince Yan's Mansion waited for its mistress.
Yihui was worried about her situation at first, because she was nominally the most favored female family member, and she was worried that the princess would be the first to attack her.
But the prince said that he would support her.
Unexpectedly, the princess was notorious and had a very gentle attitude towards her.
Yihui backed down and sincerely wanted to bless the prince and princess.
But the love for the prince in her heart would still come out from time to time, and she often couldn't control her feelings.
Therefore, after the prince regained his sight, she did not dare to look directly into his eyes for fear of being caught.
She has always been entangled and conflicted. The prince and princess trusted her, but she still couldn't hide her feelings.
She thought, how about just like this, living quietly in Prince Yan's palace for the rest of her life, she just needs to see the prince from time to time, she doesn't ask to be the prince's woman, she will be satisfied when she sees him living well.
.
But when the prince and princess came back from going out together, they only had each other in their eyes.
Yihui felt at that time that she might have no chance at all.
She understands women. No woman is willing to share her husband with others, even in name only.
No matter how anxious she was, the day still came.
All the female relatives in the palace left, leaving her alone.
No one seemed to care whether she left or stayed.
But she still chose to make a desperate move and express her love for the prince.
As you can imagine, she failed miserably.
Leng Moran said that he would only have Xiao Xixi for the rest of his life.
Yihui was forced to leave the palace, and in her heart she only envied Xiao Xixi.
If Qi Shu had not died at that time, she might have married as a woman and filed the case with Qi Shu.
But she also felt that she was probably not worthy of Qi Shu.
After leaving Prince Yan's Mansion, Yihui went to many places. When she heard that Prince Yan had succeeded to the throne, she toasted a glass of wine in the direction of the capital.
When she left, Leng Moran did not treat her badly and gave her a lot of money. Plus what she had accumulated over the years, it was enough for her to travel to every land in Dachu.
She knows some martial arts and can protect herself without any problem.
But no matter where she went, every year on the anniversary of Qi Shu's death, she would quietly rush back to Qi Shu's grave to burn a stick of incense for him.
Her feelings for Qi Shu were not deep, and after many years, there were not many left.
But she still comes every year to offer incense.
It seemed that this was the only way to prove that she was also loved.
