Chapter 63 After Marriage
As the light and shadow gradually faded, the entire room was slowly enveloped in darkness.
Galo's hand gently stroked the box in front of her. The exquisite and intricate carvings rose and fell between her fingertips, yet did not cut her hand.
In my youth in a past life, I also read very romantic sentences in romance novels.
The most difficult thing in the world is to win the heart of an emperor.
At the time, she was in her adolescence and deeply agreed with this sentiment, and she had also longed for such a deep imperial affection that was devoted to only one person.
There are countless stories of tender and poignant imperial love, but there is only one Ming Xiaozong Zhu Youcheng.
Jialu didn't know what kind of emperor Zhu Youcheng, the Ming Xiaozong Emperor, was, or whether he possessed ruthless methods and a deep, calculating mind.
She didn't know what kind of person the Shunzhi Emperor was, according to what she had read about in history.
All she knew was that the Fulin she knew was a true emperor.
Carrying the bathing supplies, Agate quietly entered the purification room.
Jade stepped forward and lit the candle.
The tiny glimmer of light gradually spread out from the wick.
As the lights came on, palace maids and eunuchs filed in, quietly performing their duties in an orderly fashion.
These scenes seem no different from usual.
"Jadeite".
The woman, who looked like a wooden sculpture, finally raised her head. She stood up and walked towards the clean room. Before entering, she said to Emerald, "Put this box away properly."
The bloody night in the palace dissipated silently as dawn broke.
The only difference was that Jialuo no longer went to Cining Palace every day to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager.
The Emperor also did not seem to visit the Empress Dowager's palace to pay his respects, and he rarely came to Jialuo's place.
...
"My lord, I heard that the Grand Consort is preparing to return to the Horqin Grassland today."
Jade lowered her voice and said.
Jialuo lay on a recliner in the courtyard, squinting her eyes, but didn't say anything.
On the contrary, Agate glanced at Jade, his eyes darting around, and said in a low voice, "What a coincidence, tonight is the seventh day after that person's death."
Jialuo then opened her eyes, pursed her lips, and sighed deeply.
Before me were lush green leaves, and the sunlight filtering through the layers of leaves was no longer so glaring.
Ironically, lately, day and night, one image that she can't avoid is the scene of her and her siblings playing on the grassland.
Although Angrama disliked her at that time, it seemed to be just a normal rivalry between sisters.
There is nothing else.
She didn't know when it started, but her fifth sister had become her sworn enemy.
Is it really just because her soul isn't the original Garo?
Jialuo didn't know the answer, just as she didn't know that her own mother also harbored such deep hatred for her.
When are you leaving?
"Jialuo asked."
"It is said to be the hour of Chou (1-3 AM), but because of the Fifth Princess, she will probably be more discreet when going out at night."
As Agate spoke, she glanced at her master.
She and Emerald were extremely worried about their mistress. In just a few days, their mistress had lost a lot of weight. The smile and ease that used to grace her face were now shrouded in a haze. Her small face and chin had become thin and pointed, making her eyes appear exceptionally large.
It's heartbreaking to see them like that.
“Your Majesty, please don’t worry. Fifth Princess herself disrespects imperial authority and acts like a madwoman in front of the Emperor. The fact that she was able to return to her hometown is entirely due to your and the Prince’s influence.”
Agate spoke quickly, and Jade couldn't stop her in time. She could only glare at Agate and then hurriedly said, "The Grand Consort is leaving, but the Prince said he is worried about you and wants to stay in the capital for a while longer."
Upon hearing this, Jialuo was naturally pleased to have Abu by her side.
Even knowing that Jade was saying it on purpose, Jialuo felt a little more at ease.
She stood up and glanced at the square sky.
"Master, would you like to read a book?"
These past few days, the master has been either sleeping in the courtyard or reading in the house, and he has rarely even touched his favorite foods.
Jialu walked towards the bedroom, her tone indifferent.
"After I've freshened up, I'm going to see the Emperor."
