Chapter 134: Tired as Hell
After the banquet, Song Ci returned to the main room and quickly lay down.
Lying spread-eagle on the bed, Song Ci exhaled, thinking that these ancient social engagements are truly exhausting.
If it were in modern times, a social event would simply mean eating and drinking at the venue, but now, you have to get up before dawn to wash and dress, then when the guests arrive, you not only have to accompany them in conversation but also pay attention to your words and deeds. You can’t casually respond to the other party’s words; otherwise, you could unknowingly fall into a trap within minutes.
Song Ci felt that playing word games with these madams was not an easy task compared to men.
This mental workload is not something humans should endure.
Even though it’s a mental task, she had at least acted in many plays and learned about psychological strategies, having read the "Strategies of the Warring States," among others. Engaging in psychological tactics wasn’t too big of a problem, as long as she was careful.
The difficult part was the physical aspect.
Though she had been exercising continuously for a while, her body was still frail and exhausted from dealing with people all day long.
