"Gu Di and Hong Ye?" The Empress Dowager was slightly surprised.
"Yes, those two have grown fond of each other over time," Yang Ruxin nodded, "They make a good match."
"Do you know that seducing a palace maid is actually a crime punishable by death?" The Empress Dowager suddenly raised an eyebrow and then picked up the teacup beside her for a gentle sip.
Nanny Zhuo's eyes widened for a moment, but quickly returned to calm. She was happy; only when Yang Ruxin was around did the Empress Dowager seem so invigorated, even abandoning her usual self-reference as 'I, the Empress Dowager', which she never did before.
She still preferred this lively Empress Dowager, much better than her usual amiable yet overly serious demeanor.
Yang Ruxin's eyebrows twitched, "Empress Dowager, are you serious? But, why don't I recall any such record in Daxuan's laws? I've memorized them all."
"Harem regulations," the Empress Dowager lifted her eyelids.
