She was putting the dried Jasmine powder in the tea cup when she was scolded by the chief tea server.

“You are not supposed to take minutes to put the powder in! Also, why are there frowns on your forehead?”

Liu Jin Yu was annoyed by her. But her inner voice told her to remain calm. Again, she put the fake, tiny smile on her lips and picked up the hot water porcelain teapot. She poured the water into the teacup. The maidservant came forward and gave the tea to the chief tea server to taste.

She tasted it and then scowled at Liu Jin Yu. “This is the worst tea I’ve ever tasted,” she remarked as she handed the maidservant the tiny plate with teacup.

“I think Lady Hu needs to check her taste buds. I was the best tea maker in my house,” Liu Jin Yu was annoyed. Wu Jin never complained that she made the wrong tea for him. She was badly missing him.

“Now, a young lady will teach me about my taste buds. I have taught hundreds of servants in this palace, but no one ever said this to me,” Lady Hu’s temper heightened. Moreover, she was the favorite tea server of the King. The way Liu Jin Yu spoke to her made her furious.

“This is the palace, not your house. You are lucky that you are entitled to become the Crown Princess, else I would have punished you for talking back to me,” Lady Hu stated. She started to tell her the taste that every royal preferred in the palace.

She was right. Liu Jin Yu was able to speak her mind because Xiaoming selected her to marry him. It was the most magical thing that had ever happened to her. His name was enough to protect her even when he was away.

.....

Liu Jin Yu didn’t hesitate to apologize. “I will try once more,” she said.

Lady Hu stood up from the chair. “There is no need to make more. I will come to teach you in the morning,” she coldly said, and left the chamber. Liu Jin Yu quickly stretched out her legs and laid down on the floor.

The maidservants took away the tiny tea table while Court Lady Hong walked in. She saw Liu Jin was lying flatly on the floor and she asked her the reason.

“I am tired. No one ever told me that I make the worst tea. Lady Hu was harsh,” she ended up complaining to Court Lady Hong.

“My Lady, please stand up first. You can lie down on the bed. Lying on the floor is inappropriate for you,” Court Lady made her understand.

“Everything in the palace is inappropriate,” Liu Jin Yu murmured and sighed. Now, she realized what Xiaoming had undergone. He used to remain in the study room for twelve hours a day. She stood up and felt the pain in her knees. She went to bed and lay flat on her stomach.

“My lady, don’t rest like this,” Court Lady Hong again corrected her.

Liu Jin Yu tilted her head and said, “I want to rest like this. It gives true relief. Moreover, no one would see me this way in this bedchamber. Who cares about the rules within the four walls of the room.”

Court Lady Hong smiled a little. “My Lady, you have brought all these acts into your habit. Otherwise, you will keep following what you always followed, even before the royals, the nobles, and the people,” Court Lady Hong affirmed.

Liu Jin Yu flipped onto the bed and then sat up. She removed the heavy overcoat and put it away. She even loosened the knot on her dress because she was feeling hot. “I understand Court Lady Hong,” she said, and laid down on the bed.

Court Lady Hong came forward and leaned against her. She asked her not to loosen the knot until she was on the Crown Prince’s bed.

“What?” Liu Jin Yu felt strange to hear that. Court Lady Hong stood straight after she again tied the knot on her dress and the innerwear was no longer visible.

“Because the Queen or any other royal can walk in at anytime. Also, it is inappropriate for a lady to do such things,” Court Lady Hong said. “My Lady, you need to show filial piety towards the elderly all the time. This is the most important aspect of being a royal lady,” she explained to Liu Jin Yu.

“I understand,” Liu Jin Yu said.

“Since Lady Liu Jin Yu will be the Crown Princess, she needs to do all her wife’s duties well. The biggest duty involves giving an heir to the royal family. Tomorrow, the royal physician will also come to examine your body,” Court Lady Hong’s words slightly startled Liu Jin Yu. She had not even thought about becoming a mother.

“What does the royal physician do?” Liu Jin Yu asked.

“He examines whether the body is good enough to give birth or not. Accordingly, the dietary needs are fulfilled,” Court Lady Hong answered.

“Court Lady Hong, isn’t that too early to discuss or think about?” Liu Jin Yu said and laughed.

“The Crown Prince is the next-in-line King. He must have as many children as possible-” she paused when Liu Jin Yu asked her to stop.

“I need to rest, Court Lady Hong. Let’s discuss it later,” Liu Jin Yu suddenly felt awkward talking about it. Court Lady Hong bowed and pulled the curtains down on the poster bed. She left while Liu Jin Yu wondered if she would be able to survive in the palace.
