The Fourth Master was busy meeting with the Mongolian Princes, so Ye Zao took her maids for a casual stroll.
The grassland's scenery was beautiful, unlike the severe desertification of several hundred years later.
Naturally, she wanted to take a good walk and enjoy it.
During this walk, she encountered the Fourteenth Fujin.
Since coming to the grasslands, the Fourteenth Fujin had truly liberated herself.
Riding horses all day long, she didn't seem like a Fujin, but probably had much to converse about with Ye Zhen.
So when she met the gentle (not) serene (horse-riding) Noble Consort Chen, she was indeed quite embarrassed.
"Greetings to the Noble Consort," said the Fourteenth Fujin as she dismounted.
"You ride quite well," Ye Zao smiled.
She didn't have much affection for this Fourteenth Fujin.
This Fujin also sided with the Empress Dowager.
Although everyone was clear about the allegiance, discomfort was inevitable.
