"You're quite right." Tianmiao laughed. Just as Concubine Rong thought Tianmiao had finally listened and felt relieved, Tianmiao added nonchalantly, "The Emperor's favor? I don't need it."
Concubine Rong froze, staring blankly at the smiling Tianmiao. Her eyes were full of calm. She truly didn't care.
Why?
At that moment, Concubine Rong couldn't understand no matter what.
Many years later, she understood, but everything had changed...
Since the day the Emperor left with Concubine Xian and Concubine Mei, he hadn't visited the Empress again. The Empress seemed not to mind, continuing to spend her days "seeking pleasure" with low-ranking concubines, reveling every night.
Soon, the Empress's birthday arrived. She didn't hold a grand celebration, just shared a meal with the concubines. Concubine Xian and Concubine Mei also came and presented their gifts, which the Empress accepted without exception. She treated them equally. However, the Emperor did not appear that day.
