Ye Qianqian said it on purpose.
"My brother is going to participate too!"
"You and I will participate too!"
"How come this is slowly turning into a contest between princes and princesses!"
Sezhuo scratched his head.
“My older brother doesn’t have that many messy thoughts.”
"I'm just going there to win the game!"
"Me too, if we win, we win; if we lose, we lose. We will never cheat."
Ye Qianqian said with a smile.
"Of course I believe you."
"But it's so late, don't overwork yourself!"
"The Cuju (ancient Chinese football) match is important, but we also have other important things to do."
Sezhuo nodded.
She understood what Ye Qianqian meant.
"Then let's go and rest."
Inside the Chuxiu Palace.
Zi Changzai was sweating profusely from practicing.
Exhausted, he collapsed onto the ground.
Caiye quickly handed her some water.
"My lady, please have some water."
The colorful leaves were pushed aside.
"No, I need to keep practicing. I want to shine in the Cuju match. Only in this way can I get the Emperor's attention."
Caiye nodded.
"But my lady, now the two princesses also want to participate in the competition."
'I'm afraid that by then—'
"They're just two princesses. The Emperor already dotes on them, so there's nothing new or exciting about it. But it's different for me."
"Okay, help me up first."
Then, as Caiye helped Zichang stand up.
Suddenly, I sensed that something was wrong.
"My lady, your arm—"
"What's wrong?"
The colorful leaves bowed their heads.
"This servant dares not say."
"If there's anything you're afraid to say, just say it."
Caiye immediately said.
"This servant just feels that Your Highness's arm seems a bit heavier than before."
"Heavy?"
As Zi Changzai spoke, she immediately walked into the room.
Then he rolled up his sleeves.
I looked at myself in the mirror.
I was startled on the spot.
"how so?"
Zi Changzai noticed that her arms looked twice as thick as usual.
His arms were all muscle.
If it were a man, it would definitely appear very strong.
But such muscles were found on a woman.
That would make them appear very brave.
In this era.
Women are naturally attractive because of their slender figures.
Having thick arms is not a good thing.
Those arms are good enough to compete in wrestling.
She no longer resembled a concubine at all.
Zi Changzai immediately spoke.
"No, this can't go on."
"The game needs to start quickly."
"Otherwise, if I continue to practice like this for a long time, my arms will only get thicker and thicker."
"By then, the emperor will surely despise me."
"Caiye, do you have any way to make someone slender?"
Caiye shook her head.
"This servant knows nothing about these things."
And their conversation.
The people arranged by the Imperial Noble Consort outside the door had already heard it.
He quickly informed the Imperial Noble Consort about the matter.
Xu Qingzhi laughed after hearing this.
"What a foolish woman!"
"I thought she was a very clever woman."
"Imperial Noble Consort, Consort Zi is currently trying to find a way to quickly slim down her arms."
Xu Qingzhi sneered.
"Since she wants something like this, then give it to her."
"What the Imperial Noble Consort means is—"
"There's something on the black market called—agarwood balm."
"Apply this ointment to the areas where you want to lose weight, and you can lose weight in a very short time."
"But it cannot be used in excess, otherwise, this ointment will have a backlash."
"It will make a person look emaciated, as if they can't hold onto their flesh."
"No one in this world likes someone who looks like a skeleton!"
"Zi Changzai is anxious to lose weight."
"She'll definitely be willing to rub this stuff on herself. I can't wait to see what she looks like when she's all emaciated."
"This servant understands!"
The next morning.
When preparing the purple-leafed dishes.
I happened to overhear two palace maids talking.
“You look much thinner lately. We do the same work every day and eat the same amount of food, so how come you look much thinner than me?”
"It's because I have a magic weapon."
"What kind of magic weapon?"
"I can't bear to tell you about something so precious. Don't turn around, you look much thinner than me, making me look much heavier."
"Oh, my dear sister, please tell me."
"At worst, I'll do all your work today by myself, and you can just relax for the day!"
"Okay, then I'll tell you. But you absolutely mustn't tell anyone else, otherwise, if they find out and use it on themselves, it'll look worse than what the two of us did."
"I've always been hoping to catch the eye of some prince and become his concubine. I can't let someone else snatch such a good opportunity away."
"Alright, alright, don't worry. I'm just like you. I also want to be noticed by some prince. Of course, I won't let any other palace maid look prettier than me."
Caiye stopped and listened attentively.
