Chapter 30 Princess Shasha Becomes a Favored Concubine

In the splendid and flourishing harem, Imperial Concubine Su Jingyue, with her unique gentleness, talent, and stunning beauty, earned endless favor and respect. However, amidst this dazzling harem, there stood another exotic princess, whose extraordinary grace and unique charm rivaled Su Jingyue's, becoming another dazzling feature of the harem—Princess Sasha from faraway Nepal.

Princess Shasha, like a snow lotus blossoming on the snowy plateau, is pure and elegant. Her beauty, like the "Sha" in her name, is light and mysterious, captivating and captivating.

She often wears a shimmering golden sari that sparkles like stars, embroidered with intricate patterns, like the brightest stars in the night sky. Skilled artisans meticulously weave it, and then wear it on her body. Every stitch and thread carries blessings and praise for her, transforming the sari into a work of art.

As she strolled through the imperial gardens, the golden light swayed gently with her steps, scattering across the ground. A gentle breeze rustled her sari, creating a melodious sound. Even the bluestone path beneath her feet seemed to gleam with her presence. Sunlight filtered through the leaves, illuminating her, imbuing her with a sacred and noble aura.

Princess Sasha's beauty lies not only in her outward appearance, but also in the tranquility and kindness deep within her heart. Her eyes are as clear and transparent as a spring, evoking a sense of pure innocence. Her smile is as warm as sunshine, capable of dispelling the gloom in people's hearts. Around her, time seems to slow down, and everything seems beautiful and peaceful.

Each of her steps was light and graceful, like a nimble butterfly dancing among the flowers, or a gentle spring breeze caressing the earth. Her graceful figure, like a spirit flitting through the woods, leaped freely and effortlessly, evoking a sense of otherworldliness. Her beauty reminded one of a fairy, untouched by worldly pleasures, accidentally transported to this bustling world, yet maintaining a sense of purity and elegance.

Her eyes were clear and profound, like two brilliant stars, gleaming with wisdom. They seemed to penetrate the deepest secrets of the human heart, leaving no room for concealment. At the same time, they seemed to see through the very essence of all things, exposing all hypocrisy and lies. This unique charisma made her the center of attention.

When she smiled, the whole world brightened. Her smile was warm and radiant, like the gentle spring sunshine, bathing the earth and bringing life and vitality to all things. Her smile could dispel the haze in people's hearts, instilling endless hope and beauty. Around her, people were always filled with joy and happiness, as if all their worries had been cast away.

In the Imperial Garden, the flowers seemed to sense Princess Shasha's arrival. As if imbued with life, they vie with each other in their splendor, showcasing their most beautiful sides. Red, pink, white, purple... The petals, layered in a riot of color, are as soft as velvet and sparkle like gemstones. Each flower is a small stage, showcasing its own unique charm.

Princess Sasha strolled through a sea of flowers, her skirt gently brushing the ground, bringing with it a scent. Her steps were light and graceful, like a fluttering butterfly, flitting among the blossoms. Her gaze was gentle and focused, appreciating the beauty of each flower, feeling the magic of nature and the power of life.

Amidst this vibrant sea of flowers, Princess Sasha stood out as awe-inspiring. Her skin was crystal clear, like fine porcelain; her hair cascaded down her shoulders in a silky, smooth flow; her eyes shone brightly, twinkling like stars. Her beauty lay not only in her outward appearance, but also in her noble and elegant demeanor and gentle, kind heart.

Princess Shasha's presence added a touch of exotic charm to the harem. Her presence allowed people to witness the collision and fusion of different cultures and to appreciate the true meaning of "stunning beauty." Her beauty wasn't merely a matter of outward splendor; it radiated from her inner noble character.

Within the magnificent Moon-Raising Pavilion, sunlight filtered through the carved window lattices, casting a dappled light and shadow, adding a touch of warmth and elegance to the palace. In this quiet yet solemn moment, a young eunuch hurried through the corridor, his face beaming with unconcealed joy, as if bearing great news. He hurried to Princess Shasha's residence, breathless but unable to conceal his excitement, and announced loudly, "Please, Concubine Ning, accept your rewards! The Emperor, in his great grace, has bestowed upon you ten saris to highlight your stunning beauty; ten Nepalese musical instruments, wishing you both artistic talent and a fulfilling life; and two pairs of crystal-clear agate earrings, symbolizing your eternal youth and enduring blessings..."

These gifts not only demonstrated the emperor's favor for Princess Shasha, but also served as a recognition of her status and identity. Each gift represented the emperor's love and attention to her, allowing her to feel her special position in the palace.

Princess Sasha sat at her ornate dressing table, her beautiful face reflected in the mirror. Her eyes were filled with anticipation, and the corners of her mouth curled slightly, revealing her inner joy. She gently stroked the exquisite jewelry, feeling its texture and luster, her heart filled with gratitude and satisfaction.

"Thank you, Lord!" Princess Shasha stood up and gracefully saluted the young eunuch to express her gratitude. Her voice was clear and melodious, like the sound of nature.

"Your Majesty, you are too polite. This is all the Emperor's gift." The young eunuch answered respectfully, with awe and envy gleaming in his eyes.

Princess Shasha smiled faintly. She knew these rewards weren't just material gifts; they were expressions of the emperor's care and love. She decided to cherish this favor and repay the emperor's trust and support with even greater effort and wisdom. At the same time, she hoped to earn the respect and love of even more people through her actions.

As soon as the words fell, the entire Moon-Raising Pavilion seemed to be gently shaken by an invisible force, and then there was a burst of joy. The palace maids rushed to tell each other, their faces filled with excitement and smiles; the eunuchs busily shuttled between the rooms, preparing for the upcoming feast. For a moment, the entire palace was filled with a lively and joyful atmosphere.

As time went on, more and more gifts began to arrive at Lanyue Pavilion. These gifts came from various sources, including precious jewels bestowed by the Emperor, magnificent garments sent by the Empress, and exquisite crafts from other concubines. Each gift was carefully selected, representing the heartfelt wishes and blessings of the giver.

The eunuchs, carrying gifts, flitted back and forth through the palace like a swarm of busy bees. In their hands, they carried a variety of magnificent items: brocade robes embroidered with gold and silver thread and inlaid with dazzling gems; musical instruments crafted from fine wood, intricately carved; and a string of agate earrings gleaming with a warm, lustrous luster, each bead round and translucent, emitting a captivating radiance. These gifts were not only priceless but also a testament to Princess Shasha's love and respect.

In this joyful atmosphere, everyone felt the importance and care that the Emperor and the Queen placed on Princess Shasha.

At that moment, Su Jingyue, the gentle and graceful imperial concubine, strode gracefully into the Moon-Raising Pavilion. A sincere smile graced her face, as if every joy in the palace touched the softest part of her heart. Seeing Princess Shasha, she could hardly conceal her joy. She walked up to her, gently took her hand, and whispered, "Sister Ningfei, congratulations! This favor from the Emperor is enough to make all the other concubines pale in comparison."

Su Jingyue's voice was as melodious as a yellow oriole's song, a breathtaking sight, akin to a spring breeze. Her gaze, filled with sincerity and blessing, revealed a deep sense of kindness and warmth. Princess Sasha, looking at this gentle and charming imperial concubine, felt a surge of intimacy. She knew Su Jingyue had always been one of the Emperor's most favored concubines, yet she had never harbored the slightest jealousy. On the contrary, she always treated the other concubines with a gentle demeanor, a feeling of immense endearment.

Princess Shasha, a woman surrounded by happiness, also blushed when she heard this and quickly stood up to greet Su Jingyue. Beside her, a woman dressed in exotic clothes was Princess Shasha who had come from afar. She saluted Su Jingyue with standard court etiquette and said in a clear and pleasant voice: "Sister Noble Concubine, you are well. It is really enviable to see you and Concubine Ning sharing your joy today."

Princess Sasha smiled and replied, "Your Highness, I'm so kind! All of this is thanks to the Emperor's grace. I'm deeply grateful." Her tone revealed a hint of humility and gratitude, which only added to her favorable impression. Su Jingyue nodded gently in understanding, then took Princess Sasha's hand and sat down on the couch with her. The two began to chat about family matters, the topic light and cheerful, making everyone feel happy.

This scene not only captures the beautiful bond between sisters within the imperial palace, but also vividly illustrates the emperor's vast grace and generous rewards. Within the magnificent Lanyue Pavilion, every gift carries the emperor's deep affection, and every beautiful woman's smile is the most beautiful response to this grace.
