Lei Xing stood in the pavilion in the back garden of her new home, staring at the reflection of the moon on the surface of the pond, alone.
The ascension ceremony was tomorrow and so she had moved into the Empress's palace today. The place was just as huge as the Emperor's, it even had its own pond with some beautiful decorative fish swimming in it.
It was all very grand and imposing.
Xiao Ruo handled the move while Lei Xing only came over in the evening after having dinner with the Emperor in his study. As per custom, they were not to sleep together tonight and so Lei Xing spent quite a bit of time with him in his study before leaving him. The next time they would meet would be when she climbed up to him as his Empress the next day.
