Emperor kept the posture of lifting the curtain and stood at the door for a while.

He stared blankly at the woman sleeping on the bed.

How could a person have such a stark contrast?

The lovely woman in a pink dress with blushing cheeks during the day turned into an old lady with pale skin and a wrinkled face at night.

The Emperor had never seen such a thing before.

All the women who could appear before him at night, which one of them wasn’t exquisitely dressed and beautifully charming?

Even for Concubine Xian, the Emperor’s impression of her still lingered from seven or eight years ago when he slept with her.

He never thought he would have to face such an old and ugly woman.

It was too scary.

The Emperor took two steps back, let go of the curtain, and turned to leave.

Concubine Xian was awakened by the sound of the bead curtain colliding and saw the Emperor’s back as he left. Suddenly waking up, she cried, “Your Majesty–”

The Emperor’s footsteps paused slightly.

Since she was awake, it wouldn’t be good for him to leave without a word.

He turned around and smiled, “Concubine Xian, you’re awake?”

Concubine Xian rubbed her eyes, made sure it was really him, and couldn’t help but feel overjoyed. She quickly uncovered the quilt and got out of bed, walked over to him, and bowed, “I have seen Your Majesty. Your Majesty, why…have you come back?”

“Oh, I went to see Concubine Jin and she was fine, so I thought I’d come and check on you. Since you’ve gone to sleep, I’ll head back.”

“No, no. I’m not sleepy, not at all.” Concubine Xian hurriedly grabbed the Emperor’s sleeve. “Your Majesty, it’s rare for you to come over. It’s already late, and it would be too much trouble for you to go back. Why don’t you just rest here with me?”

She forcibly pulled the Emperor to the bedside.

The Emperor looked at her pale, bloodless face and frowned in secret.

Since he already had some feelings of disgust in his heart, as an Emperor, why would he allow himself to be aggrieved?

He withdrew his sleeve and said indifferently, “I just remembered that there are a few important memorials I haven’t finished reading. If I don’t finish them, when the ministers ask about them at tomorrow’s morning court, it won’t do for me to say I don’t know. You know, those Imperial Censors of the Imperial Censorate, their mouths are like knives, and I can’t afford to offend them.”

Concubine Xian hurriedly nodded, “I know, those Imperial Censors are so hateful! They always meddle in everything, and they want to control every word and action you make, not knowing their place…”

The Emperor frowned unhappily, “Imperial Censors offering admonition is their duty. How can a woman of the Harem like you speak so much? Alright, you rest, I’m leaving!”

He left with a flick of his sleeve.

Concubine Xian became somewhat flustered and followed, “Your Majesty, please don’t be angry. It was just a moment’s thoughtlessness on my part…”

The bead curtains clashed as they moved.

The Emperor walked away without looking back.

Concubine Xian grabbed the bead curtain and called out a few times, but it couldn’t bring the Emperor to turn his head back.

In a flash, feelings of resentment, anger, and regret surged to her heart all at once.

Unable to restrain herself any longer, she let out a scream and grabbed the bead curtain with both hands, tearing it apart with all her strength.

The beaded curtain broke apart.

Master fell to the ground all over the place.

Palace maids and Eunuchs were alarmed and surrounded.

“Your Highness, please calm down.”

“Get out!” Concubine Xian looked up and saw Fu Liu kneeling at the front, and she swiftly kicked her, cursing, “You damn slave, why didn’t you wake me when His Majesty arrived?”

Fu Liu fell to the ground and quickly got up, bowing her head, “This slave deserves to die. His Majesty came suddenly, and I wanted to come in and wake Your Highness but was stopped by him. He said not to disturb Your Highness’s rest…”

“A bunch of useless people! All of you get out for me!”

Concubine Xian was furious.

His Majesty had come and gone, showing that he had feelings for her, but she couldn’t keep him by her side..
