Xia Ruqing also heard it from inside and wanted to cry but had no tears.
After going to bed so late last night, how can it be... again tonight?
Little Zhuzi was also helpless.
"Lady Xia, please hurry and get ready; the Emperor is waiting!"
After saying this, he rushed off.
Xia Ruqing, feeling resigned, sighed deeply and had no choice but to change her clothes and go.
Consort Yun, who lived in a nearby courtyard, naturally knew about the commotion.
She stood at the entrance of her courtyard, watching Lady Xia, draped in a thin silk cloak and attended by a line of attendants, making her way to the Emperor's front court.
Her heart was seething with jealousy. Her hands itched to scratch the door panels to pieces.
It wasn't until Lady Xia and her attendants had walked far away that Cai Die dared to speak.
"My lady, let's go back!"
Consort Yun turned and glared at her.
"HMPH!"
Then she spun around and walked away.
