Book 1 “Elegance First Known” - Chapter 1 Rebirth

"It's on fire! The marriage sedan is on fire!"Qin Yunuan managed to open her eyes slightly. She was not totally conscious after being drugged.The fire was burning from under the sedan chair, accompanied by the acrid white phosphorus smell. The fire was out of control as the wind helped it burn. It looked like a fire lantern from afar.The last thing Qin Yunuan remembered was being fed a bowl of blood bird's nest by her legal mother and carried into a ginkgo wood marriage sedan with relief sculptures covered in gold by the matchmaking woman. On the curtains of the sedan was an embroidery of a phoenix flying towards the sun. What a gorgeous sedan, or what a luxurious coffin in fact. All of this must be prepared for her by her legal mother and her sister.All along, Qin Yunuan had never wanted to fight for anything. She knew that her status was low in the big mansion of the Grand Commandant. She was just a daughter of a mistress who

Chapter 2 Flattering and Insulting

Flower Fairy Festival was a feast for flower enjoyment but held in the twelfth month of the lunar year. There were no flowers in winter, so the festival was actually held to enjoy fake flowers—made of tissues and silks by maidens. Those ingenious maidens whose fake flowers were the most vivid and shining would be the queen in this competition.Besides, there were also other activities, such as random draws of flowers and poetry singing. The winner would gain plentiful rewards from the empress. Even just a visit to the imperial palace and a look at the emperor and empress were aspirational dreams for many girls.Nanny Liao was waiting for service outside the palace together with the maidservants. Qin Yunuan, followed by Qin Yunzhuang, with her crescent color flower sachet hanging on her waist, was walking on the palace path made of black bricks, together with two dozen maidservants. Those maidens were gossiping. To many of them, it was their first time to vi

Chapter 3 Is It Enough?

Qin Yunuan caught the voice and found that there was actually an idle cat lying on the tiny stone table across the rockery. It had snowy fur and looked like a lovely sticky rice ball.However, Qin Yunuan knew that it was just not that simple. Qin Yunuan unconsciously touched her crescent-white flower sachet hanging on her waist, and then her eyes caught Qin Yunzhuang. She found the expectation and proudness in Qin Yunzhuang's eyes. Qin Yunzhuang quickly covered her face and Qin Yunuan still stayed calm and felt a little bit funny.White cat, scratching, being disfigured, she remembered all of those scenes in her last life. In this life, those could happen again, but the lead actress was not her."Oh! Such a cute and lovely cat," Shangguan Yee now felt not so upset, "sister Qin, shall me bring it here and play with it?""It is the empress's favorite cat Shishi. I am afraid that I am too ham-handed to hurt it and annoy the empress, b

Chapter 4 Going on the Stage

The imperial physician and eunuchs had just left, before a loud voice of a young eunuch arose from red plum blossoms. "Here comes Her Majesty!"The maidens in the garden all knelt down at once, saluting respectfully, "Welcome, Your Majesty!""Well, get up." A graceful and drawling voice went through the red plums, revealing a sense of grandeur of controlling the overall situation.Qin Yunuan got up together with other noble women, when she heard the Empress asking their feelings about entering the Imperial Palace and sending her regards to the family of several famous or high-ranking noble women.Her tone was gentle during the whole process, and it was so smooth that no mistakes could be found in her wording and order of greetings. Qin Yunuan waited aside quietly, thinking to herself that Empress Chen had covered all sides as beautifully as she always did. She was a smooth winner on the surface and a ruthless ruler underneath.

Chapter 5 An Unnatural Death

The banquet's ambiance became weird with everyone's eyes falling on Leng Changxi. On the other hand, Leng Changxi was as calm and stable as an iceberg, neither moving nor saying anything. He placed his right hand naturally on the table, his left one resting on his leg. With a slight tilt of his head, he looked at Empress Chen, as if he had been waiting for her arrangement and her arrangement only.Empress Chen's oriental eyes narrowed, and after what seemed to be a long time for consideration, she ordered. "Since there is still unwillingness in his heart, bring him up. I want to hear what he prepared to say to me." Leng Changxi's reaction mattered more than what that man would say. It was a test for this new commander who had just made a good figure, to see if he could draw Leng to her side.Qin Yunuan rubbed her glass gently, sizing up secretly the expressions of Empress Chen and her attendants. The soldier was supposed to be executed miles away from the P

Chapter 6 "Take Each Step Carefully"

Flower Draw was a popular game among the ladies. First, two bamboo tubes were prepared. One was filled with the bamboo sticks with the ladies' names on while the other was with bamboo sticks with different performance items on.　　First, the Empress would draw the name stick, and the girl who was drawn shall come forward and draw the performance stick. Whichever stick was drawn, the girl should perform according to the item written on the stick, and it couldn't be rejected.　　This was a great chance for the ladies to show their talents. Even though General Leng had left, Prince Ray was still present. If they could perform well to leave a refreshing impression to Prince Ray, that would be a great honor.　　Every time when it came to this game, Qin Yuzhuang was the proudest of herself. She learnt poems, calligraphy, paintings, music, and all other skills from the best teachers. She mastered all of them so that no matter which stick she drew, she co

Chapter 7 Blindfold Embroidering

At the noon, the warm sunshine spread on the Baiyu Palace softly and clearly, which sparkled the Rosefinch Gate in front of the palace.At the middle gate, Leng Changxi held the halter tightly and heard the cries of a girl from behind. Now the poker-faced man just wanted to leave quickly, but he heard that those girls cried and cursed, "It's all the fault of the concubine's daughter of Qin family. If she did not intervene, I might have exchanged the flower sachet so as not to offend Imperial Concubine Yun. Nanny Liu, what should I do? I offended Imperial Concubine Yun. If She blames all on my father, what should I do? My father must punish me to death.""Don't cry my second pearl of the family. Your father loves you very much, and he would not punish you." A woman comforted the girl."Nanny Liu, no. The Imperial Concubine Yun will revenge anybody who offended her. I am afraid that my father will lose his rank politically…" The girl then wept ag

Chapter 8 Provoking the Conflict

Just at the moment Qin Yunuan left the table, a black shadow flashed away and disappeared in the cold windy winter like a strong wind.Few people crowded in the east of the plum garden.Qin Yunuan was watching the pond where there was a block of thin ice on the surface of the pond. The bridge in distance was like a rainbow reaching the Feihua Waterside Pavilion. There was an artificial high platform aside from the pavilion, which was like an ancient tree. After a while, the champion girl in the feast would replace the empress to hang her flower on the high flower so as to express the appreciation of God and pray the peace and prosperity of the country.　　The reason why Qin Yunuan left the table was that she was a little bit drunk and, for more important, she should produce the evidence of her absence. Because she knew that something must happen just after a while.In her last life, Qin Yunzhuang gained the champion in the feast without an

Chapter 9 All Is Under Control

"Sweet Olive?" Empress Chen seemed to be confused about the relationship between Sweet Olive and the faint of Fang Ziying.Qin Yunzhuang lowered her head and said in a low voice, "Empress Chen, I heard that Sister Fang was allergic to Sweet Olive heavily. And even if she smelled it for a while, she would get rashes on her body, or worse, she gets faint."After her words, Qin Yunzhuang was watching Qin Yunuan on purpose, "Sister, am I right? you are familiar with sister Fang, and you must know her allergy, right?"Before Qin Yunuan responded to the words, Empress Chen watched Qin Yunuan with her cold-knife-liked eyes. Empress Chen tipped her fingers on the rosewood tea table and seemed to be pondering something."I…." Qin Yunuan opened her month with an irrefutable face.Qin Yunzhuang glimpsed at Shangguan Yee aside, and Shangguan Yee said at once, "Uh, what's in the bulging cuff of sister Qin Yunuan?"

Chapter 10 Who Did That?

It was an open secret that Rhizoma Curculiginis was an aphrodisiac. But anyway, framing a maiden in such a sordid way was quite shameful."Well, that's easy," Imperial Concubine Yun ogled and said, "Can't we just find out the one who carries Rhizoma Curculiginis?""Not necessarily," Empress Chen said solemnly. "The medicine may not be taken along with after it took effect.""Well then, it's still easy," Imperial Concubine Yun raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Make a body search of everyone's belongings. We'll surely find it."That sounded easy. But Empress Chen was not sure about it. The guests present all came from noble families that were politically powerful in the capital. Such an abrupt search might give rise to political unrest. As she was still speculating, a slow voice arose from the girls. "Actually, it doesn't have to be so complicated," said Qin Yunuan.Seeing that it was Qin Yunuan who was talking, Empress C
