Thinking of this, Jiang Jingyue couldn't help but shake her head. She couldn't think about it anymore; if she did, she would really become a little pervert.
She slowly stood up from the bed, but before she could stand up properly, her legs gave way and she sat back down.
With no other option, Jiang Jiangyue could only slowly stand up, supporting herself on the bed. Her decision to go outside for a stroll would have to wait until she felt better.
Whether it was the noise Jiang Jingyue made that was heard by the people outside, or not, the wooden door outside creaked open from the outside as soon as she stood up.
Jiang Jingyue saw a woman dressed as a maid walk in and come up to her.
The moment she saw Jiang Jingyue, a look of amazement flashed in her eyes; it was the first time she had ever seen such a beautiful woman.
So beautiful it was breathtaking. When I looked at Jiang Jingyue, I didn’t dare to speak loudly, for fear that my voice would be too loud and disturb the beauty in front of me.
"Your Highness, you're awake! Your servant, Xiaoju, do you need any help?"
Hearing the title "Consort Mei," Jiang Jingyue was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding.
She couldn't help but look at the maid in front of her and ask, "Are you referring to me as Consort Mei?"
When Jiang Jingyue saw the maid nod, she was still somewhat surprised, so she looked at the maid in front of her and asked her.
"Why do you call me Consort Mei?"
Seeing Jiang Jingyue's puzzled expression, Xiaoju also looked at Jiang Jingyue with some confusion and couldn't help but ask.
"Does Consort Mei not know that His Majesty has decreed that you be granted the title of Consort and the honorary title of Mei?"
Hearing what the maid in front of her said, Jiang Jingyue shook her head. She really didn't know about this matter, and she hadn't even been in the palace for a day.
She spent the entire day in bed; Qi Yehan hadn't mentioned anything about making her a concubine.
No, just as she thought of this, Jiang Jingyue suddenly remembered that Qi Yehan had told her that when they were in bed, in a moment of passion, she seemed to hear Qi Yehan whispering something in her ear.
However, she was too tired at the time and didn't pay attention to listen at all.
Was Qi Yehan telling her this at that time?
After thinking about it, Jiang Jingyue felt that this must be it.
She saw the maid in front of her still looking at her with a puzzled expression, smiled and nodded at her, and then looked at her and said.
"Come and help me up, then have someone prepare water for me. I want to take a bath."
When Xiaoju heard Jiang Jingyue say that, she immediately nodded to Jiang Jingyue and came to her side.
"Your Highness, please wait here for a moment. I will have someone prepare."
After saying that, Xiaoju hurriedly ran outside. Once outside, she couldn't help but pat her rosy cheeks.
She had just inadvertently seen something on Consort Mei's exposed skin, which was covered in suggestive marks, and she felt embarrassed just looking at it.
Wasn't it said that the Emperor was indifferent to women? Why does Consort Mei look like she's been bullied terribly?
She didn't dare to look closely anymore, only glancing at it briefly before blushing.
As soon as Xiaoju came out, the people waiting outside immediately surrounded her and bombarded her with questions.
"Xiao Ju, how was it? Was Consort Mei gentle?"
"Xiaoju, is Consort Mei beautiful? I heard that the Emperor brought her back from outside. I wonder what she looks like."
"I'm curious too, since the Emperor has sent so many of us to serve Consort Mei. He must value her very much."
Seeing them discussing this, Xiaoju immediately spoke up to them.
"Alright, stop discussing. Consort Mei wants to take a bath. Go in and prepare the water for her. You'll all be able to see her soon."
Upon hearing Xiaoju's words, the eyes of the surrounding maids lit up instantly, and they couldn't wait to prepare water for Jiang Jingyue.
Meanwhile, Jiang Jingyue is still inside discussing with the system who is the biggest threat to her in the palace right now.
The system had just told her that there was a hidden mission in this world: she had to become the Empress Dowager. If she completed the mission, she could have an extra 5 years of lifespan.
"Host, you haven't told me about this mission yet. Will you agree or not?"
When Jiang Jingyue heard the system say that, she couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"You're making it sound like I can refuse."
System: "You cannot refuse; this mission is bound to this world."
Right? Jiang Jingyue knew that, under normal circumstances, she couldn't refuse the tasks issued by the system.
Jiang Jingyue felt that the system's question was unnecessary.
"Yes! Since you've already said that I can't refuse, do you think it's appropriate for you to ask me this now?"
Jiang Jingyue's words left the system speechless, so it could only shift its attention and speak to Jiang Jingyue instead.
"Host, your biggest threat right now is the Empress. After all, to become the Empress Dowager, you have to become the Empress first. And this Empress has a very strong backing. It might not be so easy for you to bring her down."
Although the system said that, Jiang Jingyue had no choice. No matter how hard the rock was, she had to pry it open, otherwise how could she complete the mission?
"Alright, I understand. So you're the Empress! Then let's find an opportunity to meet her and see what level she's at."
System: Host, what rank are you talking about? Do you think you're playing King of Glory? You're just a newbie. If someone like Queen of Glory were playing, their rank would definitely be higher than yours.
Jiang Jingyue: ? ? ? What do you know, you piece of trash system? You don't know anything.
The two almost came to blows over their rankings, but thankfully the system isn't a single person, otherwise they would be lying down and tearing each other apart now.
While Jiang Jingyue was arguing with the system, a row of maids carried in water and bowed to her the moment they saw her.
Jiang Jingyue waved to them and then looked at them and said.
"Get up! You're still carrying water, so there's no need for formalities."
As soon as Jiang Jingyue said this, the faces of the maids lit up instantly. They exchanged glances, and all saw joy in each other's eyes.
Jiang Jingyue waited for a while, and the water was ready. Xiaoju stayed behind to serve Jiang Jingyue.
Jiang Jingyue didn't refuse and let her stay to massage her shoulders and legs. It was mainly because the massage felt really good afterward.
The maids outside were quite excited as soon as they went out.
"Ahhh, Consort Mei is so beautiful! So beautiful that even I, a woman, can't take my eyes off her."
