He remembered her name when he saw Cui Fuling for the third time.

　　It was because the beauty was angry, and the reason was the queen.

　　There was a flood in the queen's palace, and the empress dowager happened to be seriously ill.

　　The people below came to him for help.

　　How could he ignore it? After all, she was the queen, and he had a childhood sweetheart affection for her.

　　Moreover, with the empress dowager present, he couldn't just ignore it.

　　But the beauty didn't care about all that.

　　She kept quarreling with him repeatedly, which made him inexplicably annoyed.

　　He thought, this is not right, this kind of beauty is really unlikable.

　　But her face was indeed beautiful.

　　So he went to the familiar palace.

　　As soon as he entered and looked up, he saw a woman dressed as a palace maid looking at the plum blossoms opposite her, and the palace maid beside her asked if she liked them.

　　She smiled and said, "No, I like peach blossoms." "It's too cold in winter, and I don't like things that bloom in winter." Pei Qi didn't know how to describe that scene.

　　It was just a delicate face, but against the backdrop of the white snow and red plum blossoms, it was so eye-catching, especially those eyes.

　　They seemed indifferent to everything, yet everything was reflected in her eyes.

　　He couldn't help himself and asked for her name while smelling that fragrance.

　　Cui Fuling, Cui Fuling, this time he didn't forget.

　　That night, the Noble Consort had someone bring hot water.

　　He didn't pay much attention, but he didn't expect the person who came in to be her.

　　He indulged the Noble Consort to speak, but his eyes were fixed on her figure.

　　She didn't even hesitate and simply did her own thing.

　　This was different.

　　Clearly, everyone should try to please him, and she was no exception.

　　To be like this now, she was probably just playing hard to get.

　　He thought, he is the supreme ruler, the lord of all, he couldn't keep loving one woman forever.

　　Besides, even if it was the most delicious dish, if you eat it for too long, you will get tired of it.

　　It seemed like the Noble Consort noticed this slight annoyance.

　　But this woman was clever.

　　She pretended not to know and often humiliated people in front of Pei Qi for no reason.

　　She made him watch Cui Fuling grind ink in the cold wind, watch Cui Fuling's hands covered in blood from removing fish bones, and watch Cui Fuling kneel in front of her to wash her feet.

　　She thought that by doing this, Pei Qi would grow tired of Cui Fuling, and she enjoyed humiliating a maid who didn't know her place.

　　But she didn't know that every time he saw those scenes, Pei Qi only had one thought in his mind.

　　Why hasn't she come to beg me yet?
