"Let me carry her empress" concubine hua said, the empress wore a red hanfu it was very heavy and uncomfortable to carry the princess, the red hanfu made the empress pale skin more white than it already was and she looked breathtakingly beautiful. Considering how uncomfortable it was for her and her daughter and the fact that she didn't want to give her daughter to any maid on this auspicious day, handing to hua was better she thought and so the beautiful baby girl was handed to concubine hua.
