The Noble Consort was the most clearheaded woman I had ever met.
Even though His Majesty showered her with endless, singular favor, she always guarded her heart and refused to give it away.
I thought that if things went on like this, she would eventually be moved by His Majesty and meet him with sincerity in return.
Unfortunately, I never got to see that day.
Because His Majesty found someone else to cherish. He came to the Noble Consort for advice, asking her to help him win over the young woman he adored.
He said, “I have never liked a girl this much before. What do you think of me marrying her and making her Empress?”
