In the depths of a palace, Su Wanrong quietly pondered. She couldn't ignore Emperor Han Yu's special attention to Chu Fang'er, which left her with an indescribable sense of sadness.
She began to reflect on her own appearance and the meaning of her existence, wondering if the Emperor in the previous life truly only loved her for her looks.
It's late at night, and the lights in the palace are soft and mysterious. Chu Fang'er is guided to the pristine bath, washing and preparing for the upcoming night. Her mood is complex and nervous, with both anticipation for the new life and fear of the unknown.
Su Wanrong sits alone in her palace, feeling a hint of loss and loneliness. She recalls her past life as Chen Feng'er and the love between her and Emperor Han Yu.
Now, with a change in identity and the passage of time, she couldn't help but ask herself: Is it only Chen Feng'er's appearance that can win Han Yu's love?
At this moment, footsteps sounded lightly outside the door, and Han Xi walked in slowly. Seeing Su Wanrong lost in thought, he couldn't help but ask with concern, "Mother, what are you thinking? You seem to be deeply troubled."
Su Wanrong looked up at Teacher Chu, and the frustration in her heart seemed to find an outlet: "Teacher Chu, I am pondering whether my existence is merely due to my appearance at the moment. Does the Emperor's love only stay on the surface?"
Han Xi spoke in a calm and deep tone: "Mother, your value is far more than this. Your wisdom, kindness, and strength are incomparable to any outward appearance. The Emperor's choice may be complex in emotions, but your radiance will ultimately surpass everything."
Su Wanrong heard these words and gradually dispelled her confusion. She took a deep breath and regained her composure, saying, "You are right. I should not be bound by the external gaze. I will prove my worth in my own way."
At that moment, the footsteps of the eunuch of Emperor Han Yu's sedan chair could be heard in the distance, as he seemed to be heading to Chu Fang'er's palace.
Chu Fang'er welcomed Emperor Han Yu in front of her own palace, her heart couldn't help but race. She was dressed in magnificent court attire, exuding an air of grace and nobility.
The emperor's sedan slowly came to a stop, and Han Yu stepped out. His gaze fell on Chu Fang'er, as if seeking resonance with the former empress. He softly said, "Fang'er, tonight you will accompany me. Are you ready?"
Chu Fang'er lowered her head and answered softly, "I am ready, willing to serve Your Majesty." Though her voice trembled slightly, it also revealed determination.
The Emperor nodded, indicating for Chu Fang'er to lead the way. They walked together into the deep palace chambers, leaving only faint footsteps and long shadows along the way.
At the same time, Su Wanrong felt the change in her palace. Her mood was complex, with both sympathy for Chu Fang'er and reflection on her own destiny. She silently walked to the window, gazing at the distant starry sky, feeling a hint of inexplicable sadness in her heart.
"Why do I always ponder these things?" Su Wanrong asked herself, feeling somewhat weary. Just then, a warm voice sounded behind her: "Mother, it's me."
Su Wanrong turned around and saw Han Xi standing there, her eyes filled with worry and care. Han Xi approached and said softly, "Mother, don't be troubled by the disturbances in the palace. Your value is far beyond that."
Looking at Han Xi, Su Wanrong felt the love and support from her daughter, and her mood gradually calmed down. She responded, "Xier, having you by my side already fulfills me. I will prove my worth in my own way, unaffected by external opinions."
On this night, the stories in the palace continued in tranquility. The destinies of Su Wanrong and Chu Fang'er intertwined, while the emotions between Han Yu, Su Wanrong, and Han Xi quietly underwent changes in the depths of the court.
The daily life in the palace is like flowing water, day after day, and Su Wanrong's state of mind gradually becomes more firm and clear in this flow.
In the days without favor, she no longer indulges in self-doubt, but actively participates in various activities and learning in the palace, proving her worth and strength through her actions.
One day, Emperor Han Yu summoned Su Wanrong to the study, seeming to have an important matter to discuss. As Su Wanrong entered the study, he saw Han Yu sitting upright behind the desk, looking serious.
Han Yu gazed directly at Su Wanrong and began, "Wanrong, I have been observing you closely lately, wanting to see if you are capable of taking on greater responsibilities. I have called you here today to give you a test."
Su Wanrong felt a tightness in her heart, but maintained a calm demeanor: "Your Majesty, please command, and I will do my best."
Han Yu nodded and slowly revealed the content of the test: "I want you to be in charge of an important palace project, which will affect the harmony and stability of the harem. You need to personally supervise the palace's renovation project and ensure that everything goes smoothly."
Su Wanrong After listening, although there was some surprise in her heart, she quickly stabilized her emotions and firmly replied, "Your Majesty, rest assured, Wanrong will do her utmost and not disgrace the mission."
Han Yu Seeing her so decisive, a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes: "Very good, I believe in your abilities."
Su Wanrong took on this task and began personally supervising the renovation work in the palace. She diligently inspected every construction site, discussed details with the craftsmen, and made every effort to ensure that each project met the expected quality and progress.
In the process, Su Wanrong not only demonstrated her leadership abilities but also showed the other concubines in the palace her determination and strength. She proved through her actions that she was not just a beautiful consort but also a virtuous consort capable of shouldering important responsibilities.
After months of effort, the palace renovation project has finally been completed, receiving high praise from Han Yu. Su Wanrong's hard work and success have solidified her position in the emperor's heart and gradually quelled the jealousy within the harem.
