Snowy Retrospect

The 'tragic' truth tells us that time-traveling is a technical skill, and clearly, Ye Zao was mediocre at it. Being duped by her own penny-pinching uncle into becoming a lowly concubine in someone else's house was bad enough, but why did it have to be in Fourth Master's residence?
Being just a mere Concubine, how was she to get by? The starting point was too low, the background too poor, the bargaining chips too few! The big BOSS had too much HP, and every mini BOSS was lethal! After much deliberation, playing the virtuous act would get her killed, because there was Lady Ulaanala ahead of her. Playing the shrew would also lead to death, for there was Li Consort Fujin behind her. Bearing sons wasn't permitted, yet not bearing them left her with no support—what a conundrum of a life! Having finally maneuvered her way from the residence into the palace, she still had The Empress Dowager on top, who disliked her for not looking dignified enough!
Fortunately, Fourth Master didn't mind, and he secretly quite fancied her undignified looks! Ye Zao's goal was to live a good life, clothed in silk and jewels, exalted and lofty.

The Favorite Mate of Prince

"Sit down, this is for you, but the Noble Lady has more to say." Xiao Tingzi pulled him.


Wei Cheng sat down again, a look of nervousness on his face, "The Noble Lady has ordered you to just speak, this servant will surely get it done."


"Did you know that Feng Sansan from the Imperial Garden has been dismissed by His Majesty?" Xiao Tingzi said.


"Oh my, when did this happen? This servant is out of the loop!" How could he have known so quickly?


"It happened this very morning; the news hasn't reached you yet, but it will soon. Now that Feng Sansan has been sent away, and the deputy manager is getting on in years, our Noble Lady's thinking is, you can't just keep waiting in Chonghua Palace for a master to show up, right? If it takes a few years and your master arrives and makes use of you, all well and good, but what if he doesn't?"


That wasn't unheard of; what if the new master was one to not use the old servants?
