A life of ups and downs is pure joy

When Wandong came in to help her wash and dress, Zhuang Ge'er was still holding her chin in her hand and staring blankly.

"My Lord, before he left, the Lord specifically instructed me to come and have breakfast with you tomorrow after court."

"Just now, I saw that the Lord was very happy and returned to the Imperial Library."

Wan Dong kept talking while putting away her toiletries. It was obvious that the little maid was in a good mood.

"Where is the prince?"

Zhuang Ge'er asked. She didn't expect that Gong Heyu was just chatting with her and didn't stay in the end. She felt relieved.

"What's wrong, Your Majesty?"

Wan Dong didn't understand what the master in front of him meant, so he asked curiously.

"Isn't the prince staying in the side hall? Would he like to join us for breakfast tomorrow?"

Zhuang Geer asked.

"The prince didn't leave any message. Should I send someone to ask?"

Wandong made the bed and came over to help Zhuang Geer take off the pearl hairpin and bun on her head.

"Forget it. He's probably asleep by now. Just prepare breakfast for tomorrow so he can have something hot to eat if he comes."

"Master, there is something I want to say but I don't know if I can say it."

Wan Dong looked at the woman in the bronze mirror and said with some embarrassment.

"What's the matter?"

Zhuang Ge'er, who was combing her hair with a wooden comb, asked.

"My dear, now that you have entered the palace, you are the monarch's woman. If you continue to worry about the prince as before, you will definitely be a topic of gossip in the harem, and the prince will not be able to protect you forever, especially since the new princess will be arriving soon."

After Wan Dong finished speaking, he saw the woman in the bronze mirror and was a little dazed.

"Yes, my identity is different now than before, so I need to keep a proper sense of propriety."

Zhuang Ge'er thought of the young man making her happy, and she felt uncomfortable in her heart. She had unknowingly become dependent on and in love with him from the bottom of her heart. Now, she didn't want to make things difficult for him, so she obediently stayed in the palace.

But once you fall in love with someone, how can you forget them easily?

"Master, don't be sad. Our Lord treats you just as well as the prince does. Do you know how great a favor it is to live in the Hehuan Palace?"

Wan Dong watched all day today. Except for the queen, all the concubines came to the Hehuan Palace and watched for a long time. Everyone in the harem knew that the Hehuan flowers were planted for the goddess in his dream, and the Hehuan Palace was also a palace built for her.

"How do you say this?"

Zhuang Ge'er looked around and saw that although the surroundings were very luxurious, her Nanmo Residence in the palace also had everything. Looking at everything now, she didn't think there was anything special about it. She just thought that the coral was indeed beautiful that night.

"All the women who enter the palace are assigned their living quarters by the Empress, but yours truly is a unique arrangement made by the Sovereign. Everyone in the harem knows that the Hehuan Palace is the palace of the goddess in the Sovereign's heart. My lady, you are that goddess."

Wan Dong said happily that as Zhuang Ge'er's closest maid, she had felt the flattery of all the palace maids and eunuchs all day long.

However, Zhuang Ge'er treats her very well on weekdays, so she doesn't care about those small favors and flattery. She also wants to be careful about herself and her master in the harem.

"Could it be that I resemble that woman?"

Zhuang Ge'er suddenly remembered that the masked man thought she was an old acquaintance. Could it be that this woman was the goddess in the king's heart?

After all, she had been alone with Gong Heyu several times, and he shouldn't be so obsessed with a person in an imaginary dream. Thinking of this, Zhuang Ge'er became more convinced that this goddess was a real woman.

"I remember that there was a portrait of that woman in the prince's study, but I have never had the pleasure of seeing it."

Late Winter lowered his voice and said.

"I'm very curious about what she looks like now."

Zhuang Ge'er felt that all her great honors came from this woman, and she also understood why the king was so good to her.

"I don't have the ability to get the portrait for the prince's study, but I heard that many ladies in the harem have them. I can think of a way."

Wan Dong was also very curious, so he gave Zhuang Ge'er some advice.

"What about the prince? Does he also like the woman in the painting?"

Zhuang Geer asked.

"I don't know, but I have only seen the prince treat the master well."

Seeing that the woman still couldn't let go of the little prince, Wan Dong could only comfort her carefully.

"I see."

Yunguang Hall.

"Your Majesty, the Lord did not stay overnight in Hehuan Palace."

Alai, the maidservant beside Concubine Xian, dismissed all the other maids and then spoke to Fang Duoduo.

"Then Jun went to Chaoyang Palace?"

"No, the Lord has returned to the Imperial Library."

"For a month now, His Majesty has been resting in the Imperial Library. I thought he would stay in the Hehuan Palace today, or perhaps the entire harem thought so."

Fang Duoduo was a little confused. She could feel that the Lord's feelings for that woman were not love at first sight, but a long-standing preference for her. However, she looked nothing like the goddess.

The more Fang Duoduo thought about it, the more frightened she became. Could it be that the king no longer favored the goddess?

She looked at her beautiful eyes in the bronze mirror, but now they had lost their luster and were filled with worry and uneasiness.

"Perhaps he hasn't been canonized yet. Your Majesty, please rest early."

Alai helped Fang Duoduo up and said again.

"Forget it, what is coming will eventually come."
