Winter was extremely cold as the charcoal fire burned weakly in the early morning. It was freezing to the point where the people who were asleep didnât want to wake up.
Jiang Mingwei was wearing a light blue dress with a squirrel fur-coated neckline. She sat in front of the vanity mirror and had her servant apply her makeup. She looked carefully at the person in the mirror and noticed that she had gained a small amount of weight recently, evident by the way her cheeks no longer seemed sunken. The servants seemed very satisfied, but Jiang Mingwei herself felt that she was too fat and her face looked big. In addition, she didnât sleep well last night. Hence, her eyes appeared swollen and she looked very lethargic, seemingly unable to exude her usual eye-catching beauty.
Jiang Mingwei had no choice but to let the servant focus on using powder to make her face as fair as possible and highlight her facial features. She examined her makeup before she suddenly remembered something and asked, âRecently, whatâs been going on next door?â
Jiang Mingwei was really brooding about this and she would ask about it every other day. The servants participated enthusiastically at first, but after being questioned about it too much, they panicked when they heard Jiang Mingweiâs questions.
Jiang Mingwei was not satisfied. After a while, she seemed to ask unintentionally, âWhat about Prince An?â
âPrince An?â The servants looked at each other and said in a low voice, âNo one has really spoken of Prince An before, but I think that there shouldnât be anything out of the ordinary.â
This was even more strange as Jiang Mingwei frowned even more. During this period of time, the Emperor made it clear to support Xie Xuanji. It was understandable that a woman like Jiang Mingwei would be mostly unaware of the politics that occurred, but how could Xie Xuanchen not do anything about it? Or could it be that he just didnât see the need to panic?
Jiang Mingwei thought about things for a long time, but she didnât quite understand what the couple next door were doing and why one was more mysterious than the other. During this period of time, the servants had already put on Jiang Mingweiâs makeup. She looked around and was generally satisfied, so she took out some earrings and put them on herself.ExpploÌre uptodate stories at
