He Su has a very sweet voice.
What she was most proud of was her voice. Of course, in terms of looks, she certainly couldn't compare to the Empress.
But so what?
No matter how beautiful the Empress is, she can't compare to Su Yuan, can she?
Even if you add up the entire harem, you can't find many people more beautiful than the Empress.
Indeed, the appearance of the Duke of Wei has recently become the talk of the town.
With a father like that, how bad could a woman be?
"It's just a pity about her looks." If she had looks like her, she could definitely make the emperor so infatuated that he would never remember who Su Yuan was.
He Su said softly.
"Without such methods, the Emperor and I would drift apart. But if we had such methods, wouldn't the Emperor simply ignore me?"
Thank goodness there wasn't...
"The Empress Dowager is right. It's a good thing she didn't, otherwise who else in the harem would be able to stand up?"
She certainly couldn't—
The imperial carriage arrived the next day.
"Wait here." As soon as Steward Wei opened the door, he saw people from the palace arriving.
Seeing the fawning smiles of the eunuchs and palace maids, he simply slammed down two words and closed the door.
"you--"
"Father-in-law, aren't the people in the Duke of Wei's mansion being a bit too disrespectful?"
"A palace maid said indignantly."
"There's nothing we can do about it. The Emperor suddenly started to value them again, and we were so rude back then..." Now we just hope that Her Majesty the Empress will be magnanimous and not hold a grudge against them.
They used to serve the Empress, but after she was banished to the Cold Palace, they all sought other ways to make a living.
In their view, the Wei State Duke's mansion had reached its end, and the Empress had absolutely no chance of regaining favor.
However, this is not the case.
It's estimated that no one in the entire capital could have imagined that the Empress, who had been banished to the Cold Palace, would regain favor.
This shows how much influence a good maternal family can have on women in the imperial harem.
Hearing the words of the head eunuch, the eunuchs and palace maids were all uneasy. After the empress was banished to the cold palace, they couldn't help but make some sarcastic remarks.
Now--
"What you say is true, sir." The palace maid immediately composed herself.
Now that the Empress has regained favor, they should serve her well.
Hopefully, she can forget what they did before.
However, Ning Changxi forgot about this matter, but her maid Xiaoxi did not.
When Xiao Xi returned to the Duke of Wei's mansion, she told them all about the cold treatment they had received.
How could the people from the Duke of Wei's mansion possibly have a pleasant expression when they see these people now?
It's already quite good that they weren't driven away outright.
The eunuchs and palace maids stood waiting at the door; it was a bit cold, so they couldn't help but rub their hands together.
The snow fell heavily.
Ning Changxi was still nowhere to be found.
The head eunuch was getting anxious and couldn't help but step forward and knock on the door again.
"I told you to wait, wait. Can't you understand human language?"
"No, Steward Wei, we've been waiting for so long, hasn't Her Highness come out yet?"
The eunuch asked with a hint of dissatisfaction, "Or did you not inform them at all?"
They had been waiting for a very long time. Their bodies were frozen stiff.
"What? You're not willing to wait a little while?"
Butler Wei snorted coldly, "How about this, you can just go back and tell the Emperor the truth, that you don't want to wait for my young lady anymore."
"It's not that we don't want to wait anymore; we've already waited for a very long time." They had been waiting for at least two hours.
Even if Her Majesty the Empress takes a nap, that's enough.
"Wait or wait."
Butler Wei slammed the door shut again.
The old man gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do.
After waiting at the door for nearly an hour, Ning Changxi finally came out.
The Duke of Wei personally saw her off at the door.
Both father and daughter had red eyes.
She looked like she had just been crying.
"Your Majesty, let's return to the palace."
Ning Changxi was not dressed in fancy clothes, but in very ordinary clothes. Her face was bare of makeup, and she looked clean and tidy, yet she possessed a breathtaking beauty.
These palace maids and eunuchs suddenly understood why the Empress had regained favor.
How come they had never noticed how beautiful the Empress was? No wonder the Emperor couldn't forget her. The men bent their backs even more, their attitude becoming increasingly respectful.
"Father, I'm leaving."
"Yes, don't worry, do whatever you want. Dad's here, so don't compromise yourself—"
Ning Hong then grabbed her hand and said.
Of course, he felt that what he said was utter nonsense.
Changxi's return to the palace was an extremely aggrieved situation.
The most fundamental problem remains unsolved.
Ning Changxi never imagined that he would have to enter the palace again.
She genuinely believed she could escape this place, but unexpectedly, she ended up back here again.
Song Zhuo was waiting for her at Fengyi Pavilion. When he saw that she was without makeup, he couldn't help but frown.
What kind of outfit is that?
The Empress of a nation is dressed so casually. Even the palace maids in the Phoenix Palace are dressed much better than her.
"I thought I should be sent to the cold palace."
Ning Changxi said calmly.
"If we were to return to the Cold Palace, there would be no need for us to dress up so nicely."
