Chapter 18:
it was never difficult to regain favor as a Noble Consort.
She had a spoiled temperament, and Pei Qi was the Emperor, he couldn't bow down either, so as long as she understood this, when she took the first step, Pei Qi would take the second and third steps for her.
This was the privilege given by the Emperor, and also his favoritism.
"Of course, Pei Qi came to see me the next day, with a complicated expression.
I was half-asleep and greeted him with a smile as usual, saying, 'Your Majesty is here.' Seeing that I wasn't angry and my expression softened, he suddenly thought of something and asked, 'Do you know where I went yesterday?' I didn't understand why he was asking like this, so I replied, 'Of course I know, Your Majesty went to the Noble Consort's place yesterday.' 'What do you think?' he asked again.
I followed his lead and said, 'This is a good thing.
Your Majesty has gained a beautiful concubine, and I congratulate you.' His face suddenly turned unpleasant, and he said, 'Are you happy that I went to see other women?' I countered, 'Your Majesty is not happy?' If wasn't happy, how could have stayed until dawn? He choked on his words and left without looking back.
Truly strange.
