70. Sympathy
Walking casually to the Imperial Garden, Xuedie did not expect to meet the Jade Empress here.
"Slave, please see the Jade Empress." She saluted. She could be rude to Qi Ye, but she didn't want to cause trouble for the palace maid.
"Get up, how dare I take it?" The Jade Empress helped her up with her own hands. She was so favored by the king that she did not dare to neglect her. Her tone was sour and unconvincing.
"You are the empress and I am your slave, why don't you act like one?" Xuedie returned.
"What can I do if I become an empress? How many empresses are still envious and jealous of you as a slave, including me." The Jade Empress did not hide anything and spoke very directly.
"Thank you for your confession." Xuedie really likes this kind of personality, just like Concubine Ling. Although she is domineering, she is not shady behind her back.
"What's the point of confessing? It won't change anything. To be honest, I don't know what is it about you that attracts the king so much?" Lady Jade wanted to find out.
"My Lady, why don't you ask yourself, you used to be a palace maid, why did the king suddenly make you a palace lady?" Xue Die looked at her with a smile.
The Jade Empress was stunned for a moment, then she laughed dumbly, "Others say I charm the King, but what kind of person is the King? How can he be easily charmed by others."
"My slave knows that even if others don't understand, your Majesty will definitely understand." Xuedie said, after all, their identities were once the same.
"I understand, but I can't help but be jealous," said the Lady Jade.
"I understand, yesterday others were jealous of you, today you are jealous of me, who will I be jealous of tomorrow?" Xuedie arrived faintly.
Seeing her like this, Lady Jade instantly felt like she was connected to her fate, and her tone became much softer, "The king treats you differently, so naturally he won't treat you badly."
"Concubine Ling is not the same, and the king is not treating her the same." Xuedie wanted her to understand that there was no need to be jealous of herself, sooner or later she would be the same as them.
"Everyone understands the truth, but who can do it? However, after saying this to me today, I feel much better. Or, I secretly think that one day, you will end up like me. Although I
Empress, but she was born as a palace maid, and she has no support from her natal family, so she is looked down upon by others." Empress Jade smiled so sadly.
"Why do you need to compare these things, empress? As long as you remember one sentence, contentment is always happy. Think about it, although your status is not high, you are still the empress. The food, clothing and supplies are a hundred times better than those of the palace maids. If you were not the empress,
Does that mean you are still doing the job of serving others and have to endure punishment from others?" Xuedie said with a smile.
Lady Jade nodded, "Yes, what you said makes sense, but it's still difficult to do it." She sighed slightly.
"Try it." Xuedie knew that these things are easy and simple to say, but it is really difficult to sit up. Who can really let go of everything.
"Xuedie." Lady Jade held her hand. "I didn't know who you were before, but I found out after talking with you today that you are really different. If you don't mind, it's okay. I can come and chat with you. Are you willing?"
"
She did this, firstly, because Xuedie was really good, and secondly, she wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of being close to her to get close to the king.
