A single "this palace," and the disparity in status is glaring.
Mu Changzai originally wanted to say a few more words to get closer, but Lin Wanyi's refusal left her only able to offer a sheepish smile.
Watching the distant figure of Lin Wanyi, she felt a deep sense of dissatisfaction.
When she returned to the rear hall of Yao Yue Palace, she was slightly dazed.
She had always thought that seeking support from Princess Consort Ying was the right move.
But now, she wasn't sure anymore.
Moving from the side hall to the rear hall, from a concubine to a Changzai.
Clearly, each step seemed to be a climb up the ladder, yet why did she feel she was gradually drifting away from the Emperor?
If she had stayed in Yihua Palace, or perhaps maintained a good relationship with Lin Wanyi.
Would it have been a different scenario?
