Before long, the chief eunuch pushed open the door and came in: "Your Majesty, the clothes have been delivered."
Xiao Changqi: "Put it down."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The chief eunuch put down the clothes and respectfully withdrew, not daring to even look up during the process.
His Majesty's intentions are not yet clear, but the woman who has been favored by His Majesty is certainly no innocent bystander.
If we can't see her now, can't we see her again when she comes out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation?
"Your Majesty, I need to change my clothes. Could you please excuse me for a moment?" Yuan Dan glanced at the clothes placed on the stool, then turned her gaze to the man.
Xiao Changqi nodded expressionlessly: "Mm."
Only after Xiao Changqi went to the outer room did Yuandan feel relieved enough to get up and get dressed.
To her surprise, the palace servants even prepared underwear for her.
It seems there's no doubt that she was "favored" by the emperor last night.
After changing her clothes, Yuan Dan, who had no shoes, walked out while gathering her long hair behind her back.
Xiao Changqi sat at the table, slowly sipping his tea, but his attention was clearly not on the taste of the tea.
"Your Majesty, have you made up your mind?" Yuan Dan walked over without any restraint and sat down opposite the man, pouring herself a cup of tea as well.
Xiao Changqi's gaze swept over the woman's stunningly beautiful face, her slender, fair neck, and finally landed on her round, white, and tender feet on the ground.
"Put your shoes on." Xiao Changqi's face darkened, and even his voice turned cold.
Is it okay to just show your feet?
On New Year's Day, he helplessly spread his hands: "Your Majesty, I don't have any shoes."
When the chief eunuch ordered clothes to be prepared, he didn't even think about preparing shoes.
They thought that no matter how intense it was last night, at most their clothes would be ruined, but their shoes would still be wearable.
Xiao Changqi called out loudly, "Gao Zhong."
Upon hearing His Majesty's voice, the chief eunuch named Gao Zhong immediately pushed open the door and entered: "Your Majesty."
He cautiously raised his head, only to see a beautiful woman sitting opposite His Majesty.
Xiao Changqi glanced at him indifferently, and Gao Zhong was so startled that he immediately lowered his head.
"Have someone send over a pair of women's shoes."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Gao Zhong didn't rush to leave, but cautiously asked, "Your Majesty, will you still attend the morning court session today?"
Xiao Changqi suddenly challenged, "If I don't go to the morning court, are you going?"
Gao Zhong knelt down in a panic: "Your Majesty, please calm down. It was this servant who spoke out of turn."
As he spoke, Gao Zhong quickly slapped himself twice.
Xiao Changqi waved his hand impatiently: "Go down."
"yes."
Gao Zhong didn't dare to look at Yuan Dan even once this time, and retreated tremblingly.
"Your Majesty, please go to the morning court session. I'll wait for you here," Yuan Dan said casually, taking a sip of tea.
Xiao Changqi pondered for a moment: "I will have Yuan Qing come to fetch you after court."
Judging from this, they intend to let her go with Yuan Qing.
"But Your Majesty, have you forgotten that I am already a dead man?"
Although she looked exactly like Miss Yuan Si, most of the capital knew that Yuan Dan had died.
If Yuan Qing brings her back, how should he explain that?
They're saying she's not dead?
Or did it come back to life?
"I have my own plans."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Changqi made a move to get up and go to the morning court session.
New Year's Day: "Your Majesty, may I take the sparrow with me?"
Upon hearing the woman's words, Xiao Changqi's expression changed slightly.
"I'm not trying to get rid of you."
Yuan Dan smiled and said, "Of course I know Your Majesty isn't trying to get rid of me. After all, your harem is empty. If I stay, it will damage my reputation, not yours."
Yuan Dan's words were all reasonable, but Xiao Changqi suddenly felt irritable.
