Actually, when I was being dragged to kneel by the palace eunuch, I didn't know what was going on. But seeing everyone else kneeling down in unison, with the eunuchs' foreheads almost touching the bluestone floor, I also clumsily followed suit. 。It took a while to realize that the emperor had arrived. 。The Emperor has arrived!Xie Ning and Bian, just like always, knelt down respectfully without daring to raise their heads. 。Looking at the bluestone pavement 。Because someone diligently swept every day, the ground wasn't dirty. However, over time, moss would naturally form within the bricks, with deep green lines crisscrossing like a go board spreading throughout the bricks. 。It's not just the brick itself, even the surface of the bricks has pits and scratches from being used for so long. Inside, there are shades of green, some deep, some shallow. 。Xie Ning was engrossed and very pleased with himself, until a pair of black boots embroidered with gold dragons stopped in front of him, stepping on the stone brick. 。The embroidery on the boots is so good! The dragon eyes are so lively. 。The emperor's boots are really clean, not just the shoe face but even the boot shaft is spotlessly clean, without a speck of dust. 。Xie Ning didn't think the emperor stopped because of him. 。,Sometimes Xie Ning truly envies the palace servants on the border. 。We have prospects and can strive for promotions and salary increases. We also have the opportunity to leave the palace when we turn twenty-eight. 。"What is your name"Xie Ning was startled, hearing the emperor say again, "Look up and answer..." 。"I... am Xie Shi, a talented woman from Yingxiang Pavilion. I respectfully request your well-being, Your Majesty." 。She was a fifth-rank court lady in the harem of Emperor Yongkang of the Xia Dynasty. 。This was the entirety of Xie Ning's conversation with the emperor. From beginning to end, Xie Ning remained in a state of utter bewilderment. 。Even if the emperor allowed one to look up, one must still lower their eyes. To look directly at the dragon would be a crime. 。So, after the emperor and his retinue had left, as people buzzed around gossiping, Xie Ning was deep in thought. He had met the emperor twice before, but he still didn't know what he looked like... Was this a blessing to have seen him Don't be ridiculous. 。Now even the emperor's height, weight, and features are unknown. No one knows what his eyebrows, eyes, nose look like. 。When facing absolute power, especially when they hold your life and honor in their hands and you're powerless to resist, surviving is the most important thing. 。Xie Ning looked at the faces surrounding him, some familiar and others completely unknown. 。The emperor's charisma was truly powerful. Just one remark he made to himself, and now people saw him as if he were coated in gold, everyone vying for his attention. 。Back at Yingxiang Pavilion, Xie Ning rushed into the room and sat down, kicking off his shoes: "These shoes are too much trouble..." 。Two maids rushed over to pick up the shoes: "My lady, please don't do that. New shoes always need some breaking in, just wear them more." 。"Its feet were like the hooves of a pig tied up in chains...",There were originally three people living in the Yingxiange, besides Xie Ning himself: a Liu Cairen and another person whose surname was unknown. The latter died from a cold after only a few days of moving in.。
