But for the most part, she never attended court.
Instead, she would stay in this small courtyard, spending her time in quiet solitude.
As if waiting for something.
Wang Xiao shook his head slightly, seeing through Shangguan Xiyue's lingering attachment.
His thoughts spun endlessly as he tried to connect with the Immortal Treasure he had left for Shangguan Xiyue.
...
「In a small courtyard within the Imperial Palace.」
The former Imperial Harem had long since been abolished after Wang Xiao took the throne.
Only a few small courtyards had been left standing.
As always, Shangguan Xiyue was in the small courtyard, meticulously tending to the vegetables and melons growing there.
With her current power, she could have made these vegetables and melons ripen in an instant.
But she didn't. Instead, she patiently tilled the soil and applied fertilizer.
Just as she had two hundred years ago!
She existed in the present, yet lived in the past.
Just then,
HUMMM!
