Chapter 1
A fish-belly whiteness appeared in the east.

In the gray sky, the huge palace wall made of countless stones looked like a giant beast, trying to devour people in it with its teeth and claws.

The three characters of "Shenwumen" in vermilion are just like a little scarlet around the mouth of a giant beast.

A group of people walked towards the palace gate silently.Today is the day of the triennial harem draft.

"Get off the sedan chair—"

Accompanied by a violent jolt and a high-pitched voice, Li Ying's forehead hit something heavily.

"Hiss—" She couldn't help but cry out in pain, and then she was startled by her own thoughts.

What's going on, isn't she dead, why does she still feel pain?
Strong doubts and anxiety made her open her eyes with difficulty, and looked around, but she was actually in a sedan chair.

Li Ying quietly opened the curtain, and when he saw the writing on the palace door, a layer of cold sweat suddenly appeared on his back.

Isn't Shenwumen the door to enter the palace? She finally used her death to get rid of this high palace wall, how could she want to enter the palace again as soon as she opened her eyes? !

Soon someone answered the confusion in her mind: "My lord, your face is pale with fright, are you okay? These bearers are reckless, if they affect your draft, they deserve to die!"

Draft?Isn't that what happened when she was 16?

Could it be that she was reborn? !

Could it be that she had been so miserable in her previous life that even God couldn't bear it, so she was given another chance?
Realizing this, Li Ying's heart was pounding.

Reborn once again, she will not want any family glory, such wealth and wealth!

As long as her parents are on the left and brother is on the right, the whole family will be safe and happy.

However, Li Ying quickly calmed down, because she hadn't been reborn sooner or later, but she was reborn on the way to the palace draft!
If she wanted to survive, she must not be chosen.

As soon as she entered the palace, it was the audition stage. If it was based on the height of her birth, Li Ying would not be able to get in anyway, but Li Ying knew that she would not be able to escape.

Since ancient times, kings love beauties, and the current emperor is no exception.Although the album handed over only showed three-tenths of Li Ying's appearance, as long as the emperor saw her face with his own eyes, he would definitely trap her in this deep palace just like in his previous life.

Fortunately, there are still a few days before the next primary election, and there is enough time to turn around.

Recalling the memory of her appearance changing drastically after being inadvertently contaminated with something in her previous life, Li Ying had an idea in her mind.

Hai time.

In the imperial garden under the moonlight, hundreds of flowers are sleeping.

A delicate figure squatted on the ground, muttering and rummaging for something.

"Where is it? I clearly remember that there are seeds here... Ah, I found it!" Li Ying looked excitedly at the small field of flowers in front of him, his eyes sparkling.

She carefully folded off the flowers one by one and put them in her sleeves.

After all this was done, there was a slight sweat on his forehead.Li Ying hammered his numb calf, slowly stood up and turned around.

"what--"

A scream pierced the quiet night sky.

A group of tall, dark shadows stood behind her at some point without making a sound.

Until Li Ying made a sound that could shake the entire palace, the black shadow quickly "floated" towards her and covered her mouth.

"Mmmmm..." Li Ying struggled desperately.

"Shut up." This black shadow can speak!

Li Ying stopped yelling obediently, and while her hand was slightly loose, she hurriedly begged for mercy: "Master Hei Wuchang, please forgive me... I was here when I opened my eyes, I definitely didn't intend to escape, I will obediently go back to the underworld with you ..."

"What is your name, Impermanence, Heiwuchang?" The voice of this black shadow is quite nice?

Wait... the king?Oops, could it be Hades himself?Li Ying wants to cry but has no tears. Does he need Hades to catch him himself for such a brat?

"Yan... Lord Yan Wang, my little girl has eyes that don't recognize Mount Tai, please be merciful."

Heiying finally let go of the hand that was holding her, and after a moment of silence, he said, "This is the first time I've heard someone call me Hades to my face."

Why not call Hades?I have never been in the underworld, so I don't know the rules there!

When you don't know what to say, just shut up.This is one of the skills Li Ying learned in the palace in her previous life.

"Why don't you speak, do you really think that this king is the king of Hades?"

Wait, aren't you?
"Have you ever seen a warm Hades?"

Only then did Li Ying belatedly realize that there was still residual warmth from that big palm on his chin.

...It's so embarrassing.She already thought that the rebirth was too bizarre, coupled with the ghost figure that appeared out of nowhere in the middle of the night, in a hurry, she regarded him as the king of Hades who came to ask for his life from the underworld.

After confirming that it was a living person, Li Ying had the courage to look through the moonlight.

This is actually a very handsome man, with sword eyebrows flying into the temples, and a high nose... Wait, those slender eyes, as cold as a winter lake, made Li Ying's heart twitch suddenly. The fingernails dug deeply into the palm of his hand, causing a piercing pain.

This is not Hades, this is what she fears and hates more than Hades. It is the murderer who personally sent her parents and younger brother to Huangquan Road in her previous life—Loyal Prince Xiao Lian!

Li Ying's eyes widened in disbelief, he didn't expect that he was reborn, and the first old face he met was him.It seems that God is also reminding her that revenge is not in vain!
At this moment, Li Ying wished he could pierce his heart with a sword, and then throw all his internal organs to feed the dogs.

But as long as she has a shred of reason, she knows she can't do it.She had been miserable in the harem in her previous life, and she couldn't do it, let alone at this moment, she was just a little girl entering the palace for draft.

Forbearance a moment, calm, take a step back, a brighter future.My parents' lives are still alive in this life, let him go for now, Li Ying persuaded himself.

Suppressing the turmoil in her heart, Li Ying apologized: "My little girl is cowardly, she was rude for a while, please forgive me, my lord."

Xiao Lian waved his hands, not caring: "Who are you, and what are you doing here in the middle of the night?"

Li Ying has already made up the words: "My lord, my daughter is here for the draft. When I passed by this morning, I saw the flowers and plants in the imperial garden in full bloom. I was very curious, but I was afraid that I would break the rules and run afoul of you. Mistress in the palace, this is the only time I have chosen to enjoy the scenery."

In the dark night, Li Ying noticed that the man opposite him was looking at him.

"Has this king met you somewhere?"

Li Ying didn't expect Xiao Lian to say such a sentence.

Oh, isn't that right? Li Ying sneered in her heart, but replied respectfully: "My lord was joking, this is the first time my daughter has come to Beijing."

"Which family are you a daughter?"

The family that you killed with your own hands.

"The daughter of Li Huan, the magistrate of Songyang County."

Xiao Lian seemed to recall it for a long time before he finally took his eyes away from her, and he didn't say anything.

Li Ying looked at the back of the man striding away, but couldn't let go of the tightly clenched fist for a long time.

The next day, the sun fell on the hard top of the mountain made of yellow glazed tiles in the Tiyuan Hall, giving it a majestic aura.

About [-] beautiful girls who have been screened out through the audition are waiting at the gate of the hall chattering.

"The Empress Dowager is here—" Following the announcement, all the beautiful ladies fell silent and saluted the guard of honor who was slowly approaching.

The moment Li Ying knelt down with the crowd, he felt his body getting hotter and hotter. It seemed that the thing had worked.

"Excuse me." An old but kind voice came from the sedan chair, "Today, the emperor is unable to come due to something, so the Ai family will hold his eyes for him."

More than fifty people lined up in groups of six, and when it was Li Ying's turn to be in the last group, the people had almost dispersed.

"The next group is Fang Ruili, the second daughter of Marquis Xuanping, Lin Yijing, the daughter of the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and Li Ying, the daughter of the Songyang County Magistrate..."

Finally it was her turn.

"Songyang Li family, raise your head and let the Ai family take a look."

Li Ying slowly raised his head in response.

"Oops—" With an exclamation all over her body, the roster in the hands of the empress dowager fell to the ground with a bang, and the eunuch beside her was so frightened that she forgot to pick it up. face.

Li Ying didn't need to look in the mirror to know how scary she was now, her face must be swollen like a pig's head, and it was densely covered with rashes.

The empress dowager's reaction was within her expectation, but Li Ying raised her head to realize that there was a tall young man standing beside the empress dowager.

It was Xiao Lian!Li Ying's heart sank, why is it him again? !

The empress dowager on the seat caressed Chutu's chest with her palm, and Li Ying knelt down to plead guilty: "My daughter suddenly suffered a strange illness and offended the empress dowager, please forgive me."

The empress dowager took a sip of tea, took a breath and asked, "What's wrong with your face?"

"Going back to the Empress Dowager, the servants don't know why. They were all fine before, but just now they felt hot and had rashes on their skin. At this moment, they feel uncomfortable like thousands of ants crawling on their bodies..." This feeling is It's true, so Li Ying doesn't need to act, the words already have a bit of crying.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to participate in the draft. Hurry up and go to the imperial doctor for treatment." The empress dowager looked at the extremely beautiful woman in the picture album, and then at the person in front of her who was swollen and her facial features could not be distinguished, and shook her head regretfully.

Li Ying knew this would be the case, but continued to say in a hoarse voice on purpose: "Report to the Empress Dowager, my servant didn't notice, and something went wrong at such a critical moment, dirtying your eyes, my servant is guilty, and I dare not talk about the draft again. "

The empress dowager nodded in agreement when she heard the words, and was about to raise her hand to put down Li Ying's sign, when she heard the person standing beside her who hadn't said a word stop her:

"Wait a minute—"

Li Ying was engrossed in acting just now, and didn't notice that Xiao Lian was looking at him meaningfully all the time.

At this moment, when Xiao Lian stepped out of the shadows and stared straight at her "ugly" face, Li Ying's uneasiness suddenly gushed out, forming a strong sense of ominousness.

What does he want to do?
The Empress Dowager's hand, which was about to place the sign, froze and hung in the air. She turned her head to look at her grandson in surprise, and asked, "Lian'er, what's wrong?"

Seeing that Xiao Lian and the Empress Dowager said something softly, the Empress Dowager looked at Li Ying with suspicion, "Forget it, Doctor Xuan, take Li Shi down for treatment first."

When Li Ying was brought back to the main hall where she was the only beautiful girl left, the Empress Dowager's voice was no longer benevolent as before, but added a bit of interrogation: "Mr. Li, do you have something to defend?"

Li Ying knelt down with a "plop", but replied without panic: "Back to the Empress Dowager, I don't know why I should justify myself."

Deciding to use this timing, she is ready to be discovered, so she is not afraid.

The Empress Dowager is old, and the talent show just now has consumed her a lot of energy. At this moment, she leaned back in the chair a little tiredly, pursing her lips to signal Xiao Lian to come to ask questions.

"Mr. Li, I met a man in the Royal Garden last night who was acting sneaky. Is that man you?"

"Back to the lord, it is indeed my daughter." Li Ying knew that at this time, she must not be clever, otherwise she would only be at a disadvantage in the next confrontation. I dare to agree, the courtiers have already explained it last night, they just went to enjoy the flowers in the middle of the night because they didn't want to offend the empress in the palace."

"You were admiring the flowers in the middle of the night, and your behavior was really unimaginable, so I paid more attention. When you turned around, I seemed to see something hidden in your sleeve."

Li Ying didn't expect Xiao Lian to be so careful, even such a small movement was noticed by him.

"You hid it, but this?" Xiao Lian raised the geranium stump in his hand and asked.

Li Ying was secretly shocked, in just a cup of tea, he actually searched her room!
