Short filmTranscript
00:00My mother and I lived in a remote village for 8 years.
00:03During those 8 years, my father never came once.
00:06Only two maidservants took care of us, but in fact, they were just guarding us.
00:10Not allowing us to run around freely or have contact with outsiders.
00:14The village was so remote that the job of guarding us was a hard one.
00:17The two maidservants were resentful and always took it out on my mother and me.
00:21They called my mother a whore and said that she should have killed herself after losing her virtue.
00:25They called me a bastard, claiming that I was the result of my mother's affair with another man.
00:30My mother would defend me and argue with them, but every time she was beaten until she was covered in
00:34bruises.
00:35Once, when my mother was beaten again, I sneaked under their bed at night, planning to pretend to be a
00:40ghost to scare them.
00:41But I overheard them chatting at night and learned that.
00:44All the insults and beatings were ordered by the second wife of the manor.
00:47The purpose was to make my mother and me unable to bear the suffering and commit suicide.
00:51It wasn't that the second wife was afraid to kill us, but that she and my father were concerned about
00:56their reputation.
00:57If we were found dead and any clues were discovered, it would be a handle for others to use against
01:02them.
01:03My father's career was at its peak and he couldn't afford to take such a risk.
01:07So they could only slowly torture us like cutting with a blunt knife, and our suicide would be the best
01:11outcome for them.
01:13Of course, even if it was discovered that our suicide was caused by the torture of the servants,
01:17my father and the second wife could still claim that they lived far away and couldn't control their servants,
01:21thus washing their hands of the matter completely.
01:25I told my mother about this matter, but she didn't make a fuss.
01:29Instead, she began to secretly teach me to read and write, as well as some rules I didn't understand.
01:34I was not willing to accept this and wanted to ask my father for confirmation, but my mother sternly stopped
01:40me.
01:40Defiant, I tried to sneak away, and finally managed to get on the carriage when the manor was sending supplies
01:45to the village and followed it back to the manor.
01:47It was my first time seeing the Parker Manor. It was magnificent with carved beams and painted pillars.
01:53I was wearing tattered clothes, and was treated as a beggar and kicked out.
01:57Right at the entrance of the manor, I saw my father coming back in a sedan chair with a delicate
02:01and pretty little girl.
02:03I went up to call my father, but was kicked down by his guards.
02:06My father looked at me with disdain and ordered someone to send me back to the village.
02:10His tone was cold and he looked at me as if I were a disgrace.
02:13I heard the girl ask my father who I was.
02:16My father gently told her, just a beggar.
02:19Beggars are dirty.
02:20Emily doesn't look at them, or she'll dirty her eyes.
02:23Later, I learned that the girl was the daughter of the second wife, named Parker Emily.
02:28At only 7 years old, she was already renowned for her talent and was my father's pride.
02:33At the age of 8, I still naively believed that as long as I studied hard, I could be as
02:38favored by my father as Parker Emily.
02:39So I studied hard with my mother.
02:41As I grew older and more beautiful year by year, my mother's brows became more and more furrowed.
02:47She didn't allow me to dress up.
02:49To prevent the two nannies who guarded us from noticing my appearance, she even made me deliberately look ugly.
02:54On the day of my coming of age ceremony, my mother said something to the nannies in charge of us,
02:59and they actually took her back to the manor.
03:01But it was only half a day before my mother returned.
03:04She came back very sad.
03:05I didn't know what had happened to her in the manor.
03:08My mother didn't tell me anything, but just kept teaching me the four arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting,
03:14as well as needlework.
03:17Not long after, my mother committed suicide without any warning.
03:20She left a suicide note filled with her own remorse, saying that she had defiled herself and didn't deserve to
03:25live.
03:26I didn't believe what was written in my mother's note.
03:28Nor did I believe she had committed suicide.
03:31I fought with the two nuns who were guarding us, thinking they had forced her to do it, but they
03:35knocked me unconscious.
03:37When I woke up again, I rushed out of the estate and went to the county magistrate's office to ask
03:41for an autopsy.
03:42The result was that my mother had indeed committed suicide.
03:45The nuns guarding us told me,
03:47Stop causing trouble.
03:49Your slut of a mother committed suicide.
03:51She made a deal with the grand tutor and the second lady.
03:54Her suicide saved the face of the Parker family.
03:56In exchange, you'll be given a good family to marry into.
04:01The second lady is kind-hearted and has already found a good match for you.
04:04He's a lame widower who slaughters pigs.
04:07It's your good fortune to be able to marry him.
04:10Get ready, he'll come to take you in a few days.
04:13The nuns smiled smugly, seemingly happy that they wouldn't have to continue guarding me and my mother.
04:17This time, I didn't make a fuss or cause a scene.
04:20The two nuns thought I had resigned myself to my fate.
04:23But little did they know that in the middle of the night, after they fell asleep, I carried my mother's
04:28body and ran away.
04:30When I reached the capital, the brown was already high in the sky.
04:33I carried my mother's body to the Parker residence, determined to seek justice for her from Parker Michael.
04:39When I arrived at the gate of the Parker residence, I saw a long wedding procession coming out, a true
04:44ten miles of red, extremely grand.
04:46I heard the people around me talking.
04:47It turned out that my dear sister, Parker Emily, was going to the palace today to accompany the emperor and
04:53become the new emperor's concubine.
04:55I saw my father standing at the gate to see her off.
04:58His face full of joy.
05:00Those officials were saying all kinds of flattering words to him.
05:03I saw a look of pride on his face.
05:05It was obvious that my mother's death had no effect on him at all, it was even a cause for
05:09celebration.
05:09I stood in the crowd, carrying my mother's body, and just watched quietly.
05:14The silver coins and candies thrown by the servants and maids hit me, but I felt no pain at all.
05:19I clenched my hands tightly, my nails digging into my palms.
05:23I silently swore that I would avenge my mother.
05:25I would make Parker Michael and everyone in the Parker residence pay for her death.
05:33The Treasures Building is the largest auction house in our dynasty.
05:36Here, there are all kinds of rare treasures in the world.
05:39There is nothing that the Treasures Building cannot obtain, and there is nothing that the Treasures Building dares not auction.
05:45No one knows who is behind the Treasures Building, but neither the sons of nobles nor the descendants of noble
05:50families dare to be unruly here.
05:52At this moment, I am standing on the top floor of the Treasures Building, looking at the manager brown in
05:57front of me.
05:58Miss, what do you want to buy?
06:00I'm not buying anything. I'm selling something.
06:05What are you selling, Miss?
06:07A thing worth 500,000 tiles.
06:10Can you make the decision?
06:12Although I'm just the manager, I can make the decision for Fiverland Tile.
06:17Please tell me what you want.
06:20I'm selling myself.
06:24Miss, no. Please don't erase.
06:27I'm the eldest daughter of the current Prime Minister and the elder sister of the Imperial Convent.
06:32I'm worth 500,000 Tangs.
06:34Now I want to sell myself to bury my mother.
06:37This news will make the Treasures Bilk of the entire capital and your reputations even higher.
06:41This deal won't be a loss for you.
06:43The Treasures Building claims that there is nothing you dare not auction.
06:48Now, do you dare to take on this deal?
06:51Miss, please wait a moment.
06:53He left, obviously to consult the owner behind the Treasures Building.
06:57After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Brown returned and said,
07:03Miss, we'll take your deal.
07:04The auction will start in three days.
07:07Before the action, I hope the Treasures Hill can for me do three young things.
07:10Please tell me, Hajiad.
07:11The first thing's probably the new is that I'm selling myself to bury my moots in.
07:15And the new is that I'm Jake of Alsternur and the Dave Aeimbe known who are throughout the Sud.
07:19Even in the Imperial Hallis.
07:22The second thing is to protect me for three days.
07:26During these three days, no matter who puts pressure on the Treasures Bill,
07:29you must not cancel this auction or hand me over.
07:31I said to Brown,
07:33Miss, you're going to have a life and death struggle with the Prime Minister.
07:37But the Treasures Building agrees.
07:39I smiled.
07:40Of course.
07:42Although Parker Michael is the top minister and has countless people fawning over him,
07:46there are still people who want to see him lose face.
07:48On the day of the auction, I want to make Parker Michael the laughingstock of the entire capital.
07:53But what I want is not just to make Parker Michael lose face.
07:56I want to seek justice for my mother.
08:01Sure enough, the news that I was going to sell myself to bury my mother spread throughout the
08:05capital in less than half a day and caused a huge stir.
08:08Along with this news, the story of how my mother was raped by bandits 17 years ago while
08:13trying to save Parker Michael also came to life.
08:15Although it had been 17 years and not many people remembered, I did.
08:19My mother died because of this.
08:21While Parker Michael, the beneficiary, lived a carefree life.
08:25This was too unfair, so I had someone spread this story.
08:28Some people said that Parker Michael mistreated my mother and me, and even after our deaths.
08:32We had no money for a proper burial, which was why I was selling myself to bury my mother.
08:37Others said that Parker Michael was ungrateful and had betrayed his original wife.
08:41There were also those who said that the position of the imperial concubine should have been mine,
08:45because the new emperor was originally going to marry the daughter of the prime minister,
08:48and I was the legitimate daughter, while Parker Emily was born to the second wife and was
08:52technically a concubine's daughter.
08:54It was only a short while before an enraged Parker Michael, accompanied by several fierce-looking
08:58servants armed with sticks, came to the treasure's building to take me away.
09:02They said they were taking me away, but their attitude clearly indicated that they were prepared
09:06to kill me on the spot. Fortunately, I had already hidden in a safe place.
09:11Parker Michael searched the treasure's building thoroughly but failed to find me,
09:15and could only leave in frustration. Manager Brown told me that Parker Michael had left spies
09:19around the treasure's building, asking me not to show up. Besides, the palace had also sent
09:24people to keep an eye on the treasure's building, and many of Parker Michael's political rivals had
09:28also stationed people there. I wasn't surprised at all, as I had expected. So I was prepared to stay
09:34hidden for three days. Manager Brown also informed me that Parker Emily had entered the palace to
09:39accompany the emperor for the first time yesterday, but because of my incident, the emperor didn't
09:43even visit her quarters. I smiled slightly upon hearing this. This was just the beginning,
09:49the retribution for the Parker family was only just starting. Three days passed quickly. On the
09:55third day, the auction hall of the treasure's building was packed, and it was at this time that
09:59I made my appearance. I sat on the high platform, surrounded by customers who had come for the
10:06auction. I was being scrutinized like a commodity, but I remained calm and composed, not caring at all.
10:12I looked around and saw Parker Michael sitting in the middle, his face full of anger and his eyes
10:17burning with rage. If this weren't the treasure's building, perhaps he would have already ordered
10:21someone to come and kill me. I glanced at him and moved on without a second glance. My gaze finally
10:26rested on a private box on the second floor. The shopkeeper, Brown, had told me that the person in
10:31that box was from the palace, but he didn't know exactly who it was. Today's auction isn't a public
10:37bidding. Instead, the starting price is 200,000 thailands. Each person would write down their price on a
10:43piece of paper, and this lady would be the one to check them all. The highest bidder would win. I
10:49saw a
10:49determined look flash in Parker Michael's eyes. At that moment, he stood up and said, I am the father of
10:55this scoundrel. He has done such a disgraceful thing today. It's my fault for not teaching him
11:00well. I will bid 200,000 thailands today. I hope everyone will show me respect. After saying that,
11:06Parker Michael looked around as if trying to remember everyone's faces. I smiled. What he said
11:12was a threat. It seemed that not many people would dare to bid now. Fortunately, it was a secret auction.
11:18Maybe someone would really dare to bid higher than Parker Michael. Half an hour later,
11:22Brown handed me all the bidding slips. I opened them one by one and made notes. Daniel Wilson,
11:28the vice minister of personnel, bid 1,000 thailands. David Johnson, the deputy chief justice of the
11:35Supreme Court, bid 8,000 thailands. William Thomas, the chancellor of the Imperial College, bid 10,000
11:41thailands. These people all showed respect to Parker Michael, the grand tutor, and didn't dare to bid too
11:46high. However, they still offered a decent price, not degrading the daughter of the grand tutor.
11:51They really managed to please both sides. I opened the last slip. It read,
11:57Parker Michael, 200,000 thailands. The highest bid in the entire auction.
12:03Master Brown looked at the price above and whispered in my ear,
12:05Treasure's building only cares about the price. You can only hope for the best.
12:10I understood Master Brown's meaning. He thought that if I was bought by Parker Michael,
12:15it would surely be a bad outcome for me. But Treasure's building only recognized the price
12:19and wouldn't care about anything else. This was their code of conduct and they wouldn't break it
12:24for me. This time, the highest bidder is Minister Parker Michael, who offered 500,000 thailands.
12:31Parker Michael's face turned stiff and he was about to stand up to refute me.
12:35The second highest bid was 490,000 thailands, just 1,000 thailands short.
12:41Parker Michael opened his mouth but didn't say anything. I knew he might suspect that I was lying,
12:46but he didn't dare to bet because he was determined to get me. If I was bought by someone else
12:51today,
12:51Parker Michael, the grand tutor, would lose all face, and I would be out of his control.
12:56That might cause endless trouble for him in the future. So now he could only suffer this silent
13:00loss. Parker Michael's face turned ashen. He took out 500,000 thails of silver notes from his pocket
13:06and handed them to the people from Treasure's building. Then he was about to come forward and
13:10pull me away. I shook off his hand and took the 400,000 thails of silver from Master Brown.
13:15Treasure's building took 20% of the auction price, so I only got 400,000 thails.
13:20You wretched girl. Come with me to the mansion. I'll deal with you when we get there.
13:25You can't take this 400,000 thails either.
13:28Minister Parker, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed.
13:32Then, without waiting for his reaction, I said to the private room on the second floor,
13:47Clark was my mother's surname. I hated the surname Parker.
13:54As soon as I said this, Parker Michael's face Mikhaila dramatically. He glared at me and shouted
13:59towards the private room on the second floor. The new emperor had just ascended the throne,
14:07and the border was unstable. There had been several conflicts, and the emperor intended
14:12to launch a war to intimidate the barbarians and establish his authority. However, the civil
14:17officials led by Parker Michael were opposed to the military taking too much power, and the treasury
14:21was empty, so the matter had been delayed. At this moment, I was willing to donate 400,000
14:27tails of silver as provisions to support the emperor. This was like a shot in the arm,
14:32and I believed that the emperor would be moved. Immediately after, a small eunuch hurriedly came
14:38downstairs to me. I took out something from my sleeve and handed it to the eunuch, who rushed
14:42upstairs with it. By the grace of heaven, the emperor decrees that Grace Clark is to be enorbled
14:49as Conconce Clark and enter the palace today. I took the imperial edict and felt relieved.
14:55Parker Michael's face turned ashen.
15:07I didn't care about Parker Michael's curses at all. Instead, I found it rather amusing.
15:16Riding in the sedan chair to the palace, I was in a good mood. I had won today's confrontation,
15:21but it was just a stroke of luck. Parker Michael was unprepared, which allowed me to take advantage
15:26of the situation. The so-called treasure I had was the list of all the officials who had bid at
15:31the
15:31auction today, along with the amount of silver they had spent. The imperial treasury was empty,
15:36yet these officials had been trying poor to the emperor. Now, they were spending so freely at the
15:41auction. If they could spend so much money on a woman, they should also be willing to contribute
15:45that much to support the war on the border. With this list, the emperor could force those officials
15:50to donate money to support the war. Although it was just a list, it was indeed a treasure that could
15:55solve the emperor's immediate problem. I moved into the blessing palace. The first thing I did after
16:01entering the palace was to donate all the dowry that Parker Michael had given me to the imperial
16:05treasury. I found Parker Michael's things dirty and only kept my mother's dowry carefully.
16:10My action made the emperor very happy, and he immediately praised me for my righteousness and
16:14bestowed me with many treasures. Half a day after entering the palace, the head of the imperial
16:19household department came to my courtyard with several maids and eunuchs. Conscient clerk, these
16:25servants have all been well trained by the imperial household department. Please take a look and see if
16:30there is anyone you like. I glanced at the row of maids and eunuchs and then looked at the head
16:35of
16:35the imperial household department. You pick a few for me. I have only one requirement. The servants
16:41you pick can be the emperor and imperial constant spies, but they must not be spies for Parker
16:45imperial constants and Parker Michael. If I find out, I will kill you even if it costs me my life.
16:50Think it over carefully. Is the silver Parker Michael gave you more important than your life?
16:55Don't take my words lightly. I swear to heaven that I will never stop until I succeed. My words made
17:01the
17:01head of the imperial household department's face change. Contrabein Clark is joking. How could I dare?
17:08I continued drinking my tea and ignored him. The head of the imperial household department's face
17:13changed for a long time. Then he picked a few eunuchs and maids and led the others to leave with
17:17a bow.
17:20After entering the palace, I needed to pay my respects to the empress. When I arrived at the
17:25empress's phoenix palace, there were already quite a few people inside. The empress was sitting in the
17:30middle, and I went forward to pay my respects. My movements were extremely standard, as if I had
17:35practiced them thousands of times. The concubines who were waiting to see me make a fool of myself
17:40were all somewhat surprised because they all knew that I had been raised in a dilapidated manner and
17:43had never been disciplined since childhood, and thus must be coarse and unfit for the palace. But they never
17:49expected me to be so dignified and refined. Contrabein Clark, please rise. Take a seat.
17:57I stood up and walked to the side to sit down. My gaze fell on a woman opposite me. I
18:02knew she was
18:02Parker Emily, the current emperor's concubine of high rank, and the daughter of Parker Michael
18:06whom he was so proud of. Today is Confine Clark's first day in the palace. From now on,
18:12we are all sisters. We must get along harmonially. Parker Emily looked at me, her eyes full of
18:19resentment. Sister, you have quite the talent. Your mother just passed her three days ago,
18:24and you can't wait to enter the palace. Selling yourself to bury your mother and pretending to
18:28be pitiful to gain sympathy, what a good trick. I wonder if your mother can rest in peace knowing
18:32your behavior. I glanced at the empress. She had just said that we should get along harmoniously,
18:39but Parker Emily immediately started to mock me. It seemed that she was not giving the empress any
18:44face and was also trying to give me a warning. Parker Emily's eagerness to mock me must be
18:48because of what I did before. I first donated 400,000 tales to the national treasury, and then
18:54sent the 100.000 tales of dowry given by Parker Michael to the national treasury as well. Everyone
18:59praised me for my loyalty and righteousness. But Parker Emily was put in a difficult position
19:04because as the daughter of Parker Michael, she had to decide whether to donate her dowry or not.
19:09If she didn't, it would make her look selfish. If she did, she would be reluctant to part with it.
19:15This was exactly the result I wanted. I wanted everyone in the Parker family to be restless.
19:20The other concubines all stared at me with a look of schadenfreude. I smiled. I was not a pushover.
19:28Sister, remember that my mother passed away just three days ago. When my mother, your stepmother,
19:33passed away, you, a conkin's daughter, could get married. Why can't I, a legitimate daughter,
19:37to do the same? I don't know my much in band scenes, but I'm sure your mother,
19:42the conscient shriek and pole of me. Now everyone knows that the so-called second wife is just a
19:50self-deceiving calm. You will be a cup's daughter for the rest of your life. How pitiful.
19:55My words made Parker Emily's face turn ashen. Because of the previous rumors, she, a concubine's
20:01daughter, had replaced the legitimate daughter to become a concubine of high rank. The emperor hadn't
20:06visited her chambers in the past three days, making her a laughingstock. She was about to retort when
20:11the empress interrupted directly. Enough. Conservine Clark, stay. The rest of you, leave.
20:26Parker Emily was unwilling but had no choice but to leave with the other concubines. After they had
20:32all left, the empress turned to me and said, Consiglark, the emperor and I know about your
20:37feud, the Grand Hunter Parker. You have helped the emperor this time, and I will remember your
20:42goodness. Although I am also wary of the Grand Hunter Parker in the palace and protect you.
20:47In the half day since I entered the palace, the emperor had already gone to the homes of various
20:50officials with the list I gave him, forcing them to donate. He had solid evidence and, for the sake
20:56of the country, those people could no longer pretend they had no money. I looked at the empress, pondering
21:01her words. Empress, I appreciate your kindness, but I will never stop fighting with the entire
21:08Parker family until we are both dead. The empress sighed. Why go through all this trouble? You have
21:15no power or influence. How can you fight? I remained silent. In the end, the empress could only let me
21:22leave. On my first night in the palace, it was customary for me to sleep with the emperor. That
21:30was the unspoken rule in the palace. At the hour of you, the emperor came to my blessing palace. I
21:35went
21:35forward and bowed, and then walked to the table and sat down. I recognized this voice as the one I
21:44had
21:44heard in the private room earlier today. At this moment, the small eunuch by the emperor's side led
21:49everyone out. I knew the emperor had something to say. Consummate Clark, today Grand Tutor Parker came
21:56to see me and asked me to send you to the cold palace. Nana, what did your majesty say? I
22:02have
22:02just done for throats, and Chalting lets me list it even. Ming were in the labage and Chalf Parker.
22:09Chalf Parker's supports were Chalting with Dim Thunwelly. After the emperor finished speaking,
22:15he looked troubled and took a sip of tea. Your majesty really sounded dying, but I just bumply
22:20wash one down the inns away, pigs. The soldiers on the border will remember this favor. If your
22:26majesty punish me, not in knotting the Sherbing be disheart, and the Servie be disheart. I have
22:31always been loyal to your majesty.
22:35Concubine Clark, you are very smart. You have been calculating since the auction. You are so
22:40smart, I'm so smart. Can you guess if I agreed?
22:43Your majesty will not agree.
22:46Why? The reasons you just gave are not enough for me to reject Grand Tutor Parker's offer.
22:52Because I can just send you to the cold palace six months later when everything has calmed down
22:55and find any excuse I want.
22:59Because the emperor is the emperor, the son of Tevin. The emperor is not controlled by anyone.
23:05Parker Michael helped you once, but what about the second time, the third time?
23:10So the emperor will not agree.
23:12Then looked at the emperor. The emperor didn't speak, his cold eyes staring at me.
23:16After a while, he suddenly burst into laughter.
23:20Concubine Clark, if you were a man I would surely appoint you as the prime minister.
23:25I could tell that the emperor had a moment of murderous intent just now.
23:29Serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. The emperor doesn't allow smart people in the harem.
23:33Your majesty, would you like to make a deal with me?
23:38Tell me what you have in mind.
23:41I'll help you bring down Parker Michael. After Parker Michael falls.
23:46I hope your majesty will allow me to leave the palace and go to the Baisuan temple to practice Buddhism.
23:52I finished speaking and looked at the emperor.
23:54I agree with you. But do you know the influence Parker Michael has in the court?
24:00How dare you speak so boldly?
24:02I nodded. Parker Michael is the grand tutor, and all six ministries are under his control.
24:08It's like a solid iron bucket, and even the emperor can't pry it open for the time being.
24:15Then I'll wait and see.
24:17After sitting in my palace for over an hour, the emperor finally left.
24:21Clearly, the emperor had saved my face. Everyone else would think that I had slept with him tonight.
24:29On the third day after entering the palace,
24:32the emperor would come to my quarters and stay for over an hour every day.
24:35Most of the time, we played chess. But in the eyes of others,
24:38I was extremely favored and slept with the emperor every night.
24:42I heard that the porcelain in the bamboo garden had been replaced several times.
24:45The bamboo garden was where Parker Emily lived.
24:48I could tell that the emperor was doing this on purpose,
24:51just to provoke Parker Emily and her father, Parker Michael.
24:54Sure enough, on the fourth day, news came from the Parker family that
24:57Parker Michael had divorced my mother on the grounds that she was unchaste.
25:00My mother and I had no connection with the Parker family from then on.
25:04And my mother was not allowed to be buried in the Parker family's ancestral tomb.
25:07I sneered. Who cared about the Parker family's ancestral tomb?
25:11My mother would have thought it dirty to be buried there.
25:14But Parker Michael had made his move. So I had to respond.
25:18That afternoon, I asked the emperor to issue an order for Parker Michael and his second wife to
25:22come to the palace. The emperor was reluctant at first, but when I told him that this could help
25:27him break up the alliance of the civil officials, he reluctantly agreed.
25:30Very well. You may proceed with your plan.
25:32I waited in the blessing palace for an hour. Then a young eunuch led Parker Michael and his
25:36second wife in. Parker Michael was the second most powerful person in the court, and the eunuchs
25:41and maidservants all bowed to him. Parker Michael clearly enjoyed this feeling and was smug all the
25:45way. When Parker Michael saw me, there was still anger in his eyes.
25:49Did you ask me to come to the palace so that your mother could be buried in the Parker family's
25:52ancestral tomb? I gave Parker Michael a cold look and then glanced at the second wife beside him.
25:57She was indeed beautiful, and Parker Emily inherited her looks.
26:01Minister Parker, you have such great authority. You don't even bow to the emperor's concund.
26:07Are you defying the imperial family? I sneered.
26:13Parker Michael's face froze for a moment, then he gritted his teeth and bowed.
26:17The second madam's expression was also very ugly as she began to bow.
26:20I took an object out of my sleeve and placed it on the table beside me.
26:24Parker Michael and the second madam were bowing right in front of that object.
26:28When Parker Michael stood up and saw the object,
26:31Grace Clark you are really too bold.
26:33The second madam's expression was also extremely ugly after seeing that thing.
26:37I, however, smiled and stroked the object beside me.
26:40It was my mother's memorial tablet, made rather small so that I could carry it into the palace.
26:46Parker Michael and the second madam's bowing just now was equivalent to bowing to my mother,
26:50which was why they were so angry.
26:52I just like to talk to my mother. How is that being bold?
26:56Mr. Parker, please explain.
26:58Parker Michael was so angry that he couldn't speak.
27:01You made my lord bow to this slut. Does she deserve it?
27:05I sneered.
27:07Does a concubine like you have the right to question my mother's affairs?
27:10Garves, this concubine has been disrespectful to me. Slap her 30 size.
27:14The second madam looked at me with a smug expression. I stood up and slapped the second madam.
27:20I dare!
27:21You! Grand you to Parker.
27:24Have you thought it through?
27:25This slap is equivalent to slapping the face of the imperial family.
27:30Your reputation will be ruined in an instant.
27:33Parker Michael had spent his entire life protecting his reputation.
27:36How could he break his own rules for a second madam?
27:39Parker Michael was shaking with rage, but in the end, he didn't hit me.
27:43Instead, I slapped the second madam again.
27:46I was strong. While the second madam was used to a life of luxury,
27:49she was knocked to the ground by my two slaps and was completely stunned.
27:53Grace Clark, I have many ways to make your life a living hell.
27:57I didn't do anything to you yesterday because of that little bit of father-daughter affection,
28:01but today you have humiliated me like this.
28:05I won't let you off the hook.
28:07Mr. Parker, when you forced my mother to death,
28:11we were already sworn enemies.
28:15Not even half an hour after Parker Michael left with the second concubine,
28:19a stack of memorials impeaching me was delivered to the imperial study.
28:22In the evening, the empress came to my courtyard and said,
28:26let's go for a walk at the water cloud nunnery. Take your mother's muriel tape with you.
28:31The water cloud nunnery was a Buddhist temple in a secluded part of the palace,
28:34a place where some of the concubines would go to pray.
28:37I followed the empress to the water cloud nunnery with my mother's memorial tablet.
28:41The empress lit the incense first and then said to me,
28:44Let's enshrone your mother's memorial tablet in the water cloud nunnery.
28:47There are palace rules that permit setting up private memorial toads in the palace.
28:51I nodded. The empress had already been very kind to me.
28:56Consicclerc, this time you've caused too much trouble. The emperor has to punish you.
29:01I nodded again. I had already prepared myself.
29:05Today was the seventh day after my mother's death, and I did this to vent my anger for her.
29:10Seeing my reaction, the empress sighed and said,
29:12Fortunately, you've foredone some good deeds, and I've pleaded with the emperor.
29:16So this time, it will be a minor schmidt as a warning.
29:19You'll be punished by copying Buddha's scriptials.
29:22Concorbite Clark,
29:23I can see from the memorial tablet you're carrying that you and your mother have a deep bond.
29:27Your mother's spirit in heaven wouldn't want you to take such risks.
29:31Empress, there's no need to persuade me. It's a fight to death.
29:35The empress sighed again and pointed to the garden outside.
29:38Look at those little maidservants.
29:40I followed her finger and saw a group of little maidservants weeding the flowers in the
29:44garden. Perhaps because the water cloud nunnery was in the innermost part of the palace and few
29:48concubines came here, the maidservants were bold and played while working. Their laughter could be heard.
29:53This palace is full of darkness and treacherity, but there is also hope and peace.
29:58If you wait for a year when everyone has forgotten about you,
30:02I can ask the emperor to let you leave the palace and find a place to live in peace.
30:05I looked at the empress and asked the question in my heart.
30:08Why are you doing this?
30:09On my first day in the palace, I felt that the empress treated me differently.
30:14Now she was even saying she would ask the emperor to let me leave the palace.
30:17This wasn't something an empress should say.
30:19The empress smiled and said,
30:21You might not believe me, but I see in you the kind of rebellious spirit I've always wanted,
30:25the kind of determination to resist everything.
30:28I've had to be the empress for my family and the emperor all my life,
30:31but you're different. You have more possibilities.
30:36All the way back, I was lost in thought about the empress's words.
30:40When I returned to the blessing palace, I saw Parker Emily leading people to guard my courtyard.
30:44As soon as Parker Emily saw me, she wanted to come and fight with me.
30:49You bitch!
30:50But was held back by the maidservant beside her.
30:53Your highness, please calm down.
30:55You are of noble birth and don't need to confront her head down.
30:57Your highness, please be don't beated.
31:00Taisha's the easing swissial smother to tease I funkum.
31:02Everyone's persuasion made Parker Emily calm down as well.
31:05I looked at Parker Emily and said,
31:07Do you also want to taste the flavor of a slap?
31:10Don't you just rely on the emperor's favor?
31:12I tell you, I will definitely take away your favor.
31:15Just wait and see.
31:17After saying that, Parker Emily left with her maids and eunuchs in a fierce manner.
31:21Later, it was heard that Parker Emily voluntarily went to the imperial study to serve soup.
31:26This was impossible in the past.
31:28Parker Emily always thought of herself as the daughter of the prime minister,
31:31with a noble status, and looked down upon other concubines in the palace,
31:35thinking that their serving of tonics and soup to the emperor was just flattery.
31:39She never expected that she would now lower herself to do such a thing.
31:42But she didn't expect that the emperor still came to my courtyard that night.
31:49Miss, what do you want to buy?
31:51I'm not buying anything, I'm selling something.
31:56What are you selling, miss?
31:58I'm selling myself.
32:00Sixteen years ago, when my mother was pregnant with me,
32:03she went back to our hometown with my father to pay homage to our ancestors.
32:07However, they encountered bandits on the way.
32:09My mother, in order to save my father, led the bandits away by herself.
32:13My father was rescued, but my mother, although she was saved in the end,
32:17was violated by the bandits while she was pregnant with me.
32:20The bandits had no humanity.
32:23Everyone said that my mother should have hanged herself with a rope after losing her virtue,
32:26but she refused.
32:28For the sake of me in her womb, she struggled to live on.
32:31My father, for the sake of his reputation,
32:34couldn't divorce her himself because it was my mother who saved him.
32:37If he divorced her, it would be seen as a breach of faith,
32:40which would hinder his official career.
32:41So he had my mother sent to a dilapidated and abandoned farm outside the capital,
32:45claiming it was to let her rest in peace and avoid gossip while she was pregnant.
32:49But that farm was in a state of disrepair and long abandoned.
32:52It was far from a good place to rest and give birth.
32:55After half a year when my mother was forgotten by everyone,
32:58my father remarried his teacher's daughter in a grand ceremony.
33:01On the day of his new marriage, my mother gave birth to me.
