Capital. Side Hall.
The little palace maid held silk in her hands, waited by the side with her head lowered and her eyes submissively adjusted, silently reciting the precepts in her heart.
The waning moon hangs over the sparse toon tree, and the clock stops, bringing peace to the people.
Before she knew it, it was already late at night. The candle flame was still flickering in the wind, but she dared not move. As time went on, her back and waist began to ache.
An intoxicating fragrance filled the room, stirring her heart again and again.
Just one look, just one look. She vowed to herself and quietly raised her eyelids.
The crimson curtains were layered, casting a shadowy image of a person.
The man leaned against the bathtub, his black hair spread out, and he boredly fiddled with the flower petals on the water, causing ripples to form.
The little palace maid was so engrossed in watching that the promised glance almost lasted for ten thousand years.
A slightly hoarse voice sounded, "Does it look good?"
The little palace maid quickly lowered her head and said, "I dare not."
"Answer me."
"Good, it looks good." The little palace maid held the silk, her face as red as a ripe apple.
A faint laugh emanated from behind the curtains. "Sweet little mouth. What's your name?"
Amidst the envious gazes of her sisters, the little maid raised her head and timidly said, "My name is Guizi."
"Tsk, what kind of name is that? It's really ugly."
The sound of water was heard, and a figure stood up from the bathtub.
Several palace maids came forward quickly and wiped her body with their eyes downcast.
Her eyelashes fluttered, and her eyes fell on Guizi, "Come here, help me dress."
The little girl Guizi's cheeks were flushed and her heart was beating fast, but she did not dare to be negligent in doing her work and served Bu Tiange very satisfactorily.
"The name is a bit unpleasant, but at least it doesn't affect my diligence."
Bu Tiange looked at her, thought for a moment, and said, "I think the night is very beautiful tonight. How about your name be Shuxing?"
"Your servant..." Guizi hesitated.
Bu Tiange raised his eyes and said, "Drag him out and feed him to the dogs."
Guizi was so frightened that her legs and feet went limp. She quickly said, "From now on, I will call you Shuxing."
Don't know how to appreciate a favor.
Bu Tiange glanced at her and said to the others, "All of you step back."
"yes."
Guizi, no, Shuxing buried his head and didn't dare to breathe.
Bu Tiange walked towards her slowly, her long dress hanging down to the ground. The candlelight made her shadow look particularly pure and elegant.
Shu Xing nervously clutched her sleeves, smelling the fragrance becoming stronger and stronger until it enveloped her.
Slender jade fingers lifted the curtain, and the glittering pearls and jades jingled in her ears.
The empress's smiling voice also reached his ears, "Aren't you very curious about what I look like? Now you can see enough."
Shu Xing fell to her knees, crying, "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. Please spare my life. I will serve Your Majesty faithfully as a slave..."
Bu Tiange sighed slightly, lifted her chin and wiped away the tears on her face.
Shuxing hid and sobbed.
"How long are you going to cry? You're going to make my clothes dirty."
Bu Tiange put down his hand, stood up and said, "If you don't know what's best for you, I'll just drag you out and feed you to the dogs."
Only then did Shu Xing stop sobbing.
Bu Tiange turned his back and felt a headache.
Not long ago, the system informed her that her mission had arrived and forcibly pulled her into the plane.
She woke up in the bathtub with a confused look on her face, and heard a maid calling her "Your Majesty". She responded quickly and adopted the character of the empress, thus avoiding being exposed.
God deprived her of the right to know. She just wanted to find a reliable person to ask about the situation, so why did she end up with a little crybaby?
After calming down, she looked at Shu Xing again and asked in a tone she thought was kind, "Don't cry. Tell me what year and month this is, and what the situation is like in the palace."
Shu Xing was shocked. "Your Majesty?"
Could it be that Your Majesty had water in his brain while taking a bath?
