really.
After taking a sip, Sun Jieyu fainted on the spot.
Ye Ling immediately stood up.
"As for the rest, I don't need to tell you what to do, do I?"
The palace maids nodded immediately.
"yes."
Consort Sun was quickly carried to bed by the palace maids.
After Sun Jieyu woke up in the middle of the night.
I discovered that I was all alone.
"Butterfly gathering! Butterfly gathering!"
Cai Die immediately came over.
"Your Majesty."
Where is the Emperor?
"Your Majesty, the Emperor said he wanted to see the memorials and then left."
"Then, how did I fall asleep?"
Cai Die naturally knew how to deal with her.
So he said...
"It was the Emperor who stayed with the Empress until she fell asleep, and only then did he leave."
Sun Jieyu was overjoyed upon hearing this.
"I knew it! The Emperor would favor me! Before long, I will be the only one in the harem to enjoy his favor!"
“Yes!” Cai Die nodded.
"By the way, you'd better hurry up with Physician Chang! You absolutely must marry her!"
Cai Die frowned.
"Your Majesty, this servant—"
"I'm doing this all for your own good! You need to know that you are also a woman, and you will grow old someday."
"Men are all fickle. Are you going to wait until you get old and Doctor Chang gets tired of you and goes to find a younger and prettier woman before you start to get anxious?"
Cai Die said calmly.
"I believe that birth, aging, sickness and death are the natural order of life, and no one can avoid them. I do not want to preserve my appearance in this way."
Sun Jieyu immediately pinched Cai Die.
"ah!"
Cai Die immediately knelt down.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me!"
"So you have your own ideas now, huh? You're just a lowly servant! You dare to have your own opinions?!"
"Do whatever I tell you to do. Don't forget, you're still serving me!"
Cai Die nodded immediately.
"This servant understands."
"Get out!"
"yes!"
After Cai Die left.
Sun Jieyu looked in the mirror.
The reflection in the mirror still showed me my radiant beauty.
Consort Sun checked the time.
"I'll go and get some rest. After dawn, I'll dress up in my finest clothes and go to see the Emperor!"
Then Sun Jieyu lay back down.
The next morning.
After waking up, Sun Jieyu, as usual, wanted to dress up.
However.
The palace maid who was preparing to serve her with her usual toilette was startled when she saw her.
"Your Majesty—"
"What's wrong?" Sun Jieyu asked.
"Your face—"
Sun Jieyu smiled.
"What? Don't I look much younger than before?"
The palace maid shook her head.
"Your Majesty, please see for yourself."
"What do you mean by that? Do you mean I'm getting old?"
Seeing that the palace maid dared not answer.
Consort Sun stood up irritably and forcefully pushed the palace maid away.
"You won't answer my questions, you useless piece of trash! I'll go see for myself!"
Sun Jieyu walked to the mirror.
After seeing myself in the mirror.
Sun Jieyu was terrified on the spot!
"ah!"
Sun Jieyu screamed.
In the mirror, she saw an old woman with a frail face and white hair!
She looks even older than before she turned younger!
She's old enough to be a grandmother!
Sun Jieyu touched her face in disbelief.
"Why? Why have I suddenly aged so much?! Why?!"
The palace maid dared not answer.
They didn't know the answer either.
"Butterfly gathering! Butterfly gathering!"
Cai Die immediately came in.
"Your Majesty!"
After seeing Sun Jieyu's appearance.
Cai Die was also startled.
"Your face—"
Sun Jieyu slapped Cai Die across the face!
"How dare you frame me like this?!"
Cai Die immediately knelt down.
"Your Majesty, this servant did not! This servant is utterly loyal to Your Majesty!"
"You're lying! You must have secretly hidden the elixir of rejuvenation! The elixir you gave me was fake! It was all to get revenge on me!"
"Your Majesty, I'm innocent! I really didn't do it!"
"I don't believe it! I don't believe it! Guards, drag her out and kill her!"
"His Majesty has arrived!"
After hearing this sound.
Sun Jieyu panicked.
"No, I can't let the Emperor see me like this!"
"His Majesty will surely despise me!"
"I've finally regained your favor! I absolutely cannot afford to lose it again!"
Sun Jieyu immediately ran to the bed and pulled down the bed curtains.
Ye Ling walked in quickly.
After seeing that Sun Jieyu was completely covered by the bed.
Ye Ling knew that Sun Jieyu must have already seen her aged face.
Fearing being seen as out of favor, she hid herself away.
Alright, let me see what tricks she'll pull next!
then.
Ye Ling walked up.
"My beloved concubine, I've come to see you! It's time to get up."
Sun Jieyu immediately spoke from inside.
"Your Majesty, I am not feeling well today and would like to rest."
"Is that so? My beloved concubine, are you feeling unwell? I will have the imperial physician come and take a look."
Sun Jieyu immediately said.
"No need! I'm fine, I just need to rest for a few days, Your Majesty need not worry about me!"
"Your Majesty has been by my side these past few days, neglecting the other sisters. Your Majesty should extend your favor to the other sisters in the palace!"
