The elder princess seems to prioritize the big picture, but I always feel she lacks the magnanimity of their ladyship.
If she truly had an open mind, she wouldn't interfere with the affairs of the harem.
...
Xie Qianyun lay in the pool, enjoying the comfort of being served.
Enjoying and enjoying.
Suddenly, something felt off.
She felt a chilling coldness around her.
Xie Qianyun cautiously turned her head.
That glance nearly scared her to death.
Xiao Luming stood by the poolside, looking down at her, his face as dark as night.
At a glance, she almost thought he was the Black Impermanence, come to collect her soul.
Xie Qianyun's heart was filled with lingering fear.
Thinking to herself, shouldn't the Emperor be favoring the concubines right now?
Why did he come to her chambers so quickly?
Is the Emperor this frail?
Thousands of thoughts spun in Xie Qianyun's mind, but she finally told herself to remain calm.
And then to watch and wait for change.
