Upon arriving at the Fengzao Palace of Empress Xiao, Yang Ruqing found a gathering of noble ladies. They were adorned in luxurious attire, with flowers and brocades everywhere, resembling a grand feast held by the Queen Mother Xi Wangmu on her Yaotai.
In the crowd, a stunning woman in a bright yellow court gown was being surrounded by stars. Yang Ruqing saw the phoenix hairpin on the woman's hair bun and guessed that this must be the newly appointed Queen Xiao Han of Emperor Qi.
It's true that being young, it wouldn't be out of place to call him "Grandfather" Qi Huang based on his age.
Oh, such a political marriage, so cold...
"That is Queen Xiao Han, the mistress of this palace."
At the side, Wan Qingchun's stout wife, Mrs. Yao, whispered a reminder to Yang Ruqing in a low voice.
"The woman in the azure blue court dress following her is the second imperial concubine," Yao added.
Second Princess?
Isn't that Lu Bingqing!
Since the time of Liche City, I haven't seen Luobingqing again.
It's been eight or nine years, hasn't it?

Back then, we were all fifteen or sixteen years old. The Ice Purity County Princess in my memory wore white clothes that shone like snow, her hair cascaded down like a waterfall. She truly looked as pure and immaculate as ice and jade.
But now, Yang Ruqing narrowed her eyes and carefully scrutinized the noblewoman who was closely following Empress Xiao Han. She was secretly astonished.
It wasn't Yao Shi's reminder that she truly had a blind eye, she thought it was the middle-aged mistress of that royal family.
Where is even a trace of the once pure and innocent girl?
She's so thin, like a piece of paper. Her complexion isn't good at all, she looks pale and sickly.
Then, probably to cover up the dull complexion and those dark circles, she applied several pounds of powder to her face, blurring out her eyebrows and eyes.
So, she could only use an eyebrow pencil to forcefully outline the eyebrows and eye lines, and apply red lipstick. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
In the end, everything was clearly defined—the black was black, the white was white, and the red was red. But the whole face looked like a mask, with an extremely stiff expression.
Compared to Queen Xiaohan, she was truly a bright and shining person, while the other was dim and dull, with an old appearance.
But she had to respectfully call the Xiao Han Empress "Mother Empress"...
It seems that being a royal daughter-in-law is really hard. Being pampered and raised ended up making her a middle-aged woman...
Yang Ruoqing retracted her gaze and, together with Madam Yao, followed the eunuchs' arrangements to line up according to their husbands' official ranks. Then they went in one by one to pay respects to Empress Xiao Han.
Although Tang Ya Zi is a national hero general and now holds great power, in terms of rank, she, as a Baroness, still ranks behind Yao Shi, the Duchess.
In the middle were several ladies-in-waiting, none of whom I recognized, so there was no need to greet them.
In this way, one by one they entered the hall. When it was Yang Ruqing's turn, Empress Xiao Han intentionally fixed her gaze upon her.
“Zhongyongbo is the pillar of the country, his contributions to safeguarding the borders and protecting the nation are immeasurable. Madam Zhongyongbo, please rise quickly.” Empress Xiaohan politely raised her hand towards Yang Ruqing.

Then a palace maid came over to help Yang Ruqing up. Yang Ruqing rose gracefully, looking at the Empress Xiao Han seated above.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your praise. My husband's duty is to serve and ease your burdens." Yang Ruqing said.
Queen Xiao Han was secretly surprised. Before today, she had already learned about the situation of the palace maids who were coming to the palace today.
All of them were daughters of noble families, even the lowest-born was a daughter of a magistrate.

But only the wife of the national hero general, Yang Ruqing, was a daughter from a farmer's family with no background.
However, because her husband was the nation's revered general, a highly valued talent by both the emperor and the crown prince, Empress Xiaohan had to treat Yang Ruqing with respect.
Originally, Empress Xiaohan was still worried that Yang Ruoqing would seem timid and restrained among the crowd of women.
However, through this series of observations, Queen Xiao Han discovered that Lady Yang Ruqing, the wife of the Loyal and Valiant Marquis, was generous and graceful, dignified and measured, with clear eyes and no evasion.
She is also very pretty and lovely, but her eyes and eyebrows also have a masculine air of heroism and integrity.
This is the end of the paragraph.
After exchanging a few pleasantries with Yang Ruqing, Empress Xiaohan arranged for an eunuch to escort her to the Imperial Garden where she could take a seat. Empress Xiaohan, meanwhile, continued to receive the remaining ladies-in-waiting.

As Yang Ruqing turned to leave, the corner of her eye glanced at Luo Bingqing over there.
Since entering the palace and meeting Queen Xiao Han, Lu Bingqing has been scrutinizing herself from every angle.
Yang Ruqing knew it well.
As she left, Luobingqing's gaze followed her until she exited the palace. Only then did her eyes finally disappear.
Jealousy? Envy? Wrath? Surprise?
Luo Bingqing's eyes contained all things, but in the end, Yang Ruoheng summed it up in one sentence: Luo Bingqing's gaze was the gaze of a failure.
Because of the position of Lady Zhongyong's husband, and the title of Generalissimo's wife, it has always been coveted by Luo Bingqing.
So envious, jealous and hateful!
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else! ?
"Mrs. Luo!"
A figure suddenly walked out. Yang Ruqing looked and saw it was Yao.

"What are you doing here?" Yang Ruqing asked in surprise.
Because Lady Yao had already been summoned by Empress Xiao Han, she should be in the Imperial Garden now according to reason.
"I've been waiting for Madam Luo here," said Lady Yao. "My husband instructed us to go to the Imperial Garden together."
Yang Ruqing was taken aback for a moment, her heart filled with a little warmth. "Okay, let's go together."
The two of them chatted and laughed as they went towards the Imperial Garden.
In the distance, a palace maid watched Yang Ruohua and the others walk away. She quickly turned around and ran in the opposite direction.
Behind a large tree, a palace maid whispered a few words in Luo Bingqing's ear.
"Can you see clearly? The wife of the Duke Zhen Guo and the wife of Lord Zhong Yong are walking together," asked Luo Bingqing.
The palace maid nodded: “I saw it clearly, there’s no mistake. Among all the ladies, isn’t the fattest one Lady Yao, the wife of Duke Zhen?”
Lu Bingqing said, "The Zhen Guogong's mansion has gradually declined. This current Zhen Guogong Wan Qingchun is a useless man, and his wife is just the daughter of a magistrate from some lower-level prefecture."
"It's not surprising that someone with a small mind would associate with others of a similar mindset."
Luo Bingqing stood under the tree, pondering for a moment before calling that palace maid over. She took out a gold ingot from her sleeve.
“You go to the garden and find out which official is in charge of arranging the banquet for the guests. Please ask him to do me a small favor, Your Highness…”
The palace maid took Luo Bingqing's gold and hurried to the Imperial Garden.
Luo Bingqing slowly turned around, looking towards the direction of Yugarden, a sneer curling at the corner of her lips.
Yang Ruqing, don't think you really have a deep love with your husband, and that you met the best and most devoted husband in the world. Today, I will let you see for yourself.
All the men in this world are like cats; none of them can resist chasing after other women.
As long as you put the fish in front of him, he will surely eat it!
