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

"What's the matter? Is something wrong?" Fourth Master asked as he saw her looking over.


Ye Zao shook her head, "It's very good, I like it. I was thinking... Since Ning Ning has already given the child a pet name, could you not use this character when conferring titles in your imperial harem in the future?"


"...What are you thinking about? Which woman would have the face to compete with my princess over a character? Nonsensical thoughts!" Fourth Master shook his head, feeling that pregnant women can sometimes be... utterly bewildering.


"Hahaha, exactly, exactly, I was just talking nonsense. Master, you're the best, you love children the most," Ye Zao flattered Fourth Master with a big smile.


Whether it was sending messages from the Capital to Guizhou or from Guizhou to Guangdong, the process was very slow.


Ye Zao went into labor on the night of the twenty-ninth day of February, during the Hai Hour.
