What makes me even more confused is that he is the emperor, and I should be the one to serve him and change his clothes, but it is he who helps me change my clothes.
"Fool, don't be too moved. You are the woman I care about most. I am willing to take care of you every day."
I don’t know when he changed his clothes, but he said this to me in a daze, which made me feel warm in my heart.
Although he is an emperor, I feel the care of an ordinary husband for his wife.
Although I am not his wife at all, I am just his concubine, that is, the concubine of an ordinary man.
Not wanting to be in a daze or overthinking, I said, "I'm afraid they may be impatient because of the wait. Let's get out quickly!"
As I said that, I had already opened the door, but Wan Ning, Qiangwei, and many other maids whose names I didn't know and hadn't seen before, or maybe I had seen yesterday but didn't remember, were waiting for me and Dongfang Luo to come out.
When they saw us coming out, they all packed their luggage and said, "See you, Your Majesty, and see Concubine Xi."
I didn't say anything, but Dongfangluo said: "Everyone, get up!"
Then everyone got up.
Afterwards, after freshening up, the two of us simply had some breakfast and then went to the Queen Mother's Cining Palace to pay her respects.
I don't know what kind of person the Queen Mother is, and neither does Qiangwei. My sister didn't mention it too much when she entered the palace, but Wan Ning reminded me at this moment.
She said that the Queen Mother was very eccentric and cunning, and she liked to make things difficult for others. Her favorite was the Queen. Except for the Queen, she disliked all the concubines because none of the other concubines were nieces of the Queen Mother. Only the Queen was hers.
niece.
I understand that since ancient times, empresses have always been nieces of the queen mother. Naturally, nieces are also relatives of the family, and naturally they are not close to outsiders.
When we were almost at the Cining Palace, Dongfang Luo held my hand, as if to comfort me.
But I always pretended to be blind, and walked into the Cining Palace step by step with the support of Qiangwei and Wan Ning.
When crossing the threshold, I almost tripped on purpose, but fortunately Dongfangluo held me up.
Although I was pretending, I was using my strength. If I wasn't supported properly, I would really fall over and make a fool of myself.
No matter what, I didn't make a fool of myself in the end, but I only attracted jealous looks and ridicules from many concubines in the Queen Mother's house.
