Chapter 797

Linglong said in a low voice: "I hate her so much, but seeing her dying of illness and about to pass away, instead of feeling happy, I feel sad and even feel sorry for her."

Ting Lan said: "Do you feel sorry for her?"

Linglong nodded: "Yes, my heart aches. Concubine Jia is certainly at fault, but she spent her whole life trying to figure it out. Everything she did was for the sake of her mother, and for a smile from the man she loved, but in the end, the man she loved the most... Abandoned her, tried to distance herself from her, and even wrote a letter to the emperor saying that she is not the eldest daughter of the Goryeo royal family, but a bastard raised from nowhere, how sad and pitiful!"

After hearing this, Ting Lan was silent for a long time before she gave a wry smile: "Everyone says that women in the harem are sinister and scheming, but no matter how scheming they are, they are not as good as those men outside. In order to gain power, they can sacrifice anything and everything. Give up, the so-called flowery and beautiful family, in the face of absolute power, it seems so worthless, even if you have all the spring, you still can't escape the fate of being turned into mud and dust, it's ridiculous, it's really ridiculous."

Linglong said infatuatedly: "Yeah, it's ridiculous. I sacrificed my whole life for such a cold man. Concubine Shu is like this, and so is Concubine Jia. Sometimes I wonder why we women rely on men to live. Can't you just live for yourself?"

Ting Lan heard it like a stick in her throat, and said for a long time: "I also want to live for myself, but in this era, men are superior to women, and women must depend on men to survive. Even if they are as noble as a queen, they are worried about whether they will have a son, because there are only children born in the first place. Only in this way can I guarantee that I will be the only empress dowager in the future, so that I will not be ostracized by the concubine and concubine, and become a mud bodhisattva waiting to die."

Men are superior to women, and men are superior to women, which is the deep-rooted and insurmountable social nature of the feudal era.

Linglong lived in modern society, and was once cried by her parents who favored sons over daughters, let alone in ancient times.

Concubine Jia really left the next night, when she passed away, there was light snow in the sky, but the wind was blowing, she looked very sad.

Perhaps because she had a premonition of the coming of death, Concubine Jia came back to her light, straightened up with force, and came to the dressing table to dress up.

Concubine Jia puts her makeup on in the mirror, and smiles wryly at the mirror: "I knew it would be like this, so why bother to symbolize with them in the palace? There really is an afterlife, and you must not live this life again."

She muttered to herself again: "Remember, don't live this kind of life again!"

After saying this, two lines of tears fell unconsciously.

Remember, you must never live such a life again!

These were Concubine Jia's last words in this world, and then she passed away quietly wearing a traditional Korean dress with a big braid neatly combed.

After the emperor heard about it, he was silent for a long time, and then issued an imperial decree to posthumously designate her as the imperial concubine, with the posthumous title of 'Shu', so she was named 'Shu Jia (loser) imperial concubine'.

(The author complained: Why isn't it called Shufujia Huangguifei?)

The imperial concubine is the same as the deputy queen, and it is a great honor for the concubine to be named the imperial concubine after death.

Linglong, however, understood very well that she was not the emperor's true concubine, but was posthumously conferred for outsiders to see.
