Throughout the court and the country, all was in turmoil, yet only the aged General Murong wore a long face, his own daughter, the Empress, had first received favor, yet there was no news of her fortune.
Ah, could this be fate?
The future of the great You Country was assured; the young Emperor appeared outwardly thrilled, but unconsciously placed his hand upon his abdomen.
Little one, you can finally be born in the Harem.
"Proclaim Our decree, Murong Jieyu to be promoted to Princess Consort Jing, to be well nourished and cared for."
Upon hearing the news, the Empress was like a soul lost.
The first Heir of the Harem was not to be hers, she blamed herself, pounding her unaccomplished belly, wishing so dearly to be pregnant with the Heir as well.
Old General Murong, worried his daughter would be disheartened, especially sent a comforting letter.
