Synopsis:
(Completed) [Face-slapping, Crematory-style Pursuit of Wife, No Palace Intrigue, 1V1]
Li Fengning was the least prominent in status among the female officials selected to enter the palace, yet her beauty was the most outstanding. The other girls guarded against her at every turn, refusing to let her show her face before the Emperor.
It happened that Li Fengning unintentionally crossed paths with the Emperor and was saved by him.
Initially, the Emperor saw that this little girl had a simple nature and was soft and easily bullied, so he sought her out for amusement. Later, seeing her jade-like softness and flower-like tenderness, he favored her.
Fengning timidly asked the Emperor, "Can Your Majesty confer upon this subject's daughter the title of Noble Lady?"
Only a Noble Lady can be the mistress of a palace, and Fengning did not want to be suppressed by others under their eaves.
She was his first woman, and she always thought she was different in his heart.
The Emperor recalled that her father's official rank was not high. He casually brushed the stray hairs at her temples, his expression unmoved. "With your status, the position of Noble Lady is out of reach."
"And I will not break the rules for anyone."
Fengning's heart was pricked. Clutching her thin clothes, she silently swallowed her tears in the swirling rainy night. She finally understood that he would always be the high and mighty Emperor, while she was merely a bit of solace after his meals.
The Emperor hoped Fengning would conceive his flesh and blood. One month passed, then two months passed; he did not receive news of a pregnancy, but instead waited for word that she was taking contraceptive soup.
That day, torrential rain poured down, and the cups and saucers in the Hall of Mental Cultivation were shattered all over the floor.
At first, he thought that once she conceived a child, it was not impossible to consider conferring the title of Noble Lady upon her.
Later, he racked his brains just to place the Phoenix Seal into her hands.
