Lin Shangyi, in her name, told my palace maid to call the royal physician to see that it was a serious fall, and that she had to take care of it properly before she could do anything serious.

On the first day, the talented person even personally brought some things to see me, saying some words of concern before lightly sighing and pulling my hand as he said with incomparable regret, "The first month's dancing tournament was really exciting, the emperor personally went to play, and everyone in the palace will go to watch. My little sister's injury has caused so much damage, I don't think we can move anymore."

I smiled and retracted my hand. "Yes, what a pity." In his mind, he thought, "What does he going to the ball have to do with me? Since everyone is not here, I can go and visit the grand imperial concubine."

Normally, I could go there, but I didn't want the palace maids to see it.

After coming here a second time, she was actually quite kind and wouldn't put on airs just because I was a Ninth Pin. It's just that I didn't really like her, so I felt that her thoughts weren't here.

Lin Shangyi, who likes to have big eyes, comes to see me every day when he's free, but he's also a person who doesn't like to speak. Standing there is as if he's done something wrong, and he's even more helpless than me.

I couldn't help but laugh. "Shang Yi, quickly, please take a seat!"

"Is it better now?" She looked up at me with wide eyes.

He couldn't help but marvel at those eyes. They were truly beautiful, clear and pure like the blue sky and white clouds, possessing a beauty that could be seen from afar.

"Better, don't blame yourself anymore, I don't want to fall and hurt myself."

She nodded. "Then rest well. I still need to go to work."

"Be careful, if you can't reach it, move a chair and stand."

She smiled and nodded vigorously. "I will."

Compared to the narrator, I prefer to get along with her. I don't know if it's because our backgrounds are similar or not, but I feel a sense of empathy towards her.

Now that his heart had calmed down, he felt that his waist injury was quite light. When he had nothing to do, he would just take a book and read it on the bed. Anyway, his days passed in this listless and listless manner.

The weather grew colder with each passing day, and my waist began to heal, and I could walk. For more than ten days, he did not come to see me, and since I did not care for him, I was happy to be at ease.

On the day of the ball, the man called for the maids to attend him, tidied himself up, and went out with them.

"Fengyi, are you coming too?" the palace maid asked cautiously.

I put the book down and shook my head with a smile. "I'm not interested. If you want to go, then go."

When the second lady heard this, she could not help but reveal a smile. After saying a few fake words, the two of them still went out together.

The sound of laundry on the left side of the room was as usual, and I let out a long breath before finally falling silent.

He got up and put on his thick clothes. The frost on the outside had long since been dispersed by the thin sunlight.

It was really quiet. The entire imperial harem was as quiet as if there was no one there.

Holding my waist and walking down the remote road, my breath was like white mist. I breathed heavily like a child and finally walked out of the dreary Begonia courtyard. I felt inexplicably happy in my heart.

The wind blew through the lanterns in front of the Imperial Consort's door, and the bamboo bones that were exposed made me sigh. I lowered my head and knocked on the door, and the palace maid looked at me in surprise.

As soon as he stepped inside, he heard Grand Concubine Yi shout in surprise, "Zhiqiu."

She opened the window and looked at the door again, she had always been looking forward to it. Although Xia Junchang had already left for the northwest, she didn't know when he would return.

I sighed and felt ashamed. In the end, I was the same as Imperial Concubine Mu. I was willing to be the emperor's woman, but she still treated me with such respect.

She took my hand and said, "Look at how thin you have become. You don't know how to appreciate your body."

"It's pretty good." I tried to smile.

"Zhiqiu, Jun Tang has sent a letter." She smiled and said, "Jun Tang told me that the Northwest is doing very well. There's still a lot of snow, and there's still a lot of wolves. When they stand up taller than a man, they come back to roast the wine. I'm glad he's doing so well."

I felt sour in my heart. I didn't know if he was still recuperating on the bed like me, but he didn't want to worry his mufei. Haha, what was there to be sour about? It was already news that he could come back.

She took my hand and said softly, "Zhiqiu, even if I were to tell you these things, you would have to learn to be happy. Don't let yourself suffer."

Even she could see that I wasn't happy.

She stroked my face with her hand, wiped the moisture from the corners of my eyes, and said kindly, "You must learn to take care of yourself in the palace, and to make yourself better. I think of you as my own daughter, and I hope that Zhiqiu will be better off."

She even gave me a snow-white fox hair scarf, the workmanship extremely delicate. Before I learned the zither outside of Tianyun, I also had a daughter of the Minister of Revenue who wore it, she said proudly. This is only found in the Northwest Territories, and the white one is also the most precious.

He gently laid the white fox fur on his face, soft as cotton. Xia Junchang, you still remember me?
