The more Ye Jiu thought about it, the more upset she felt, and at the same time, there was a deep sense of melancholy that lingered in her heart, refusing to disperse.
By the time she returned to the Royal Residence, the sky was already darkening, just in time for dinner.
At the dinner table, Lord Jing spoke, "The War King will return to the capital tomorrow. There will be a palace banquet in the evening. I won't be coming back, so you all don't need to wait for me for dinner."
Since the Princess Consort went to the temple to pray three years ago, Lord Jing subsequently ordered that the concubines and attendants in the rear courtyard of the residence would no longer join the main table for meals but would dine in their respective courtyards.
However, the young masters in the household, including Ye Jiu, were still required to eat in the main hall every day.
Ye Jiu had raised this issue many times, but Lord Jing ignored her.
