Chapter 7: First Encounter with the Dragon’s Countenance
The soft silk wrapped around her body, thinking of the sleeping nanny’s rules for sleeping arrangements mentioned earlier, Lin Wanyi felt discontent in her heart, but she did not show it on her face.
Being carried into the inner hall wrapped in brocade, it was an unparalleled honor in the eyes of others, but to her, it felt quite demeaning.
Unexpectedly, the sleeping nanny brought a set of palace attire made of tribute satin snow-white skirts, helping Lin Wanyi to dress properly.
"Nanny, didn’t you say..."
Lin Wanyi hadn’t finished speaking when the sleeping nanny, with a hint of approval in her eyes, said.
"The Emperor has granted that the young mistress may wear palace attire while serving, this is a rare grace, truly a profound blessing for you, young mistress."
Lin Wanyi smiled, but did not respond.
Others might think it was a divinely bestowed fortune, but she felt that when a tree stands out, the wind will surely destroy it.
The Emperor’s favor toward her, it was either for the sake of Lin Xiang or Lin Guifei, for her, a mere concubine to receive such love, it would surely lead to future ostracism.
But this isn’t something she can meddle in, so she had no choice but to let the palace maid help her dress.
The sleeping nanny originally wanted to apply makeup for her, but Lin Wanyi’s natural beauty shined more without artificial embellishment.
As the saying goes, "A lotus blooms from clear water, naturally without adornment."
