Nightfall's gaze gradually sharpened.
Qiao Zhen tactfully raised her hand and wiped away her tears with her sleeve. The pain in her back subsided, and the tears stopped welling up. She remained calm and composed.
Ye Shangzhou nodded in satisfaction. It was rare to have a palace maid as perceptive as Qiao Zhen. He should let her live a few more days.
After taking a bath, he opened his arms to Qiao Zhen.
Qiao Zhen, understanding the situation, gently lifted Ye Shangzhou and placed him on the soft couch. Then, she used a dry, smooth towel to wipe away the water droplets that had slid down Ye Shangzhou's body.

That night, Qiao Zhen was granted the title of Baolin and moved into the Crane Palace, where she was always by the emperor's side, enjoying great prestige for a time.
Qiao Zhen: I don't need this kind of glory!
But in reality, she could only kneel, and she knelt on the ground, flattered and overwhelmed, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Ye Shangzhou was very satisfied with her surprised performance, so all the rewards given to her were in accordance with the rank of a senior envoy.
