Consort Jing knew the Emperor was suspicious.
Since that day, she stopped inviting the opera troupe to perform for her.
But the less she saw them, the more she missed them.
Perhaps disdaining the Emperor, she could only see more flaws in him, whereas the image of Mei Yuzong in her mind became more and more perfect.
Distance makes the heart grow fonder, as the saying goes.
Just when she could barely restrain herself anymore, Consort Yun wanted to see a play, so she came over to give Consort Jing a heads-up.
After the Empress passed away, Consort Jing's status in the harem soared like the sun at midday, assuming the duties of the Empress, and many affairs required her approval.
Of course, if someone could persuade the Emperor, there would be no need to report back to her.
This time, Consort Yun's wish to watch a play aligned perfectly with her own desires, though Consort Yun was afraid of bothering her, so she planned to set up a stage in the Imperial Garden instead.
