Beauties in Simulation Cross over into Reality

After leaving with Chunyan, Ning Wei went to Bai Ruxue’s bedchamber to help tidy up.

”In the past, I was the only one allowed to look after Her Ladyship’s chambers.”

”After all, I’ve been with Her Ladyship for over ten years. I don’t trust the other palace maids. I always have this feeling that someone in our Ningxue Hall has been bought by Hanjiu Hall. If Her Ladyship were to get pregnant and someone secretly used musk to harm her, it would be a disaster.”

”But from now on, you can help me manage Ningxue Hall, too. You were sent over by our Yan Mansion, after all. And since Her Ladyship said you’re a good person, I’ll trust you.”

”From now on, you’re one of us, different from the other palace maids. Understand?”

Chunyan said to Ning Wei as she tidied the room.

Ning Wei nodded quickly. ”I understand, Sister Chunyan. But, Sister Chunyan...”

Ning Wei looked around the room curiously. ”Lady Xue’s bedchamber is so clean. It seems like there’s nothing to tidy up.”

The room was exceptionally clean and neat. Ning Wei felt there was no need to clean at all. There was even a faint, pleasant scent lingering in the air.

It wasn’t the smell of any cosmetics.

It was the natural fragrance from Lady Xue’s body.

”Oh, that? To be honest, sometimes I feel like Her Ladyship isn’t like a master at all.”

Chunyan, who was changing the tea leaves, pouted and muttered softly.

”Ever since she was a child, Her Ladyship has done many things herself. And she does them so cleanly and efficiently, as if she’s done all sorts of chores countless times.”

”Even now, simple tasks like changing the tea and wiping the tables are things Her Ladyship intentionally leaves for us. She’s afraid we’ll have nothing to do and be gossiped about. So, you need to be diligent and quick with your hands. Try to get to the chores before Her Ladyship does, understand?”

”I understand.”

Ning Wei nodded, the image of the stunningly beautiful woman from earlier replaying in her mind.

’She’s so incredibly beautiful...’

”Sister Chunyan, His Majesty is about to arrive.”

Just as Chunyan was instructing Ning Wei, a palace maid ran in and called out urgently.

”Quick, come with me to greet His Majesty.”

Chunyan quickly arranged the tea set on the table and led Ning Wei toward the entrance of Ningxue Hall.

Ning Wei stood beside Chunyan, her head bowed, waiting for the Sovereign of Zhou to arrive.

A sense of nervousness gradually crept into Ning Wei’s heart.

She had thought it would be some time before she would meet the Sovereign of Zhou.

But she never expected to be able to see him so soon.

”His Majesty has arrived!”

As the announcement rang out, the Sovereign of Zhou walked into Ningxue Hall a moment later.

The palace maids of Ningxue Hall all curtsied and called out in unison, ”Your servants humbly welcome Your Majesty.”

”There is no need for such ceremony. You may all rise,” Xiao Mo said.

But when Xiao Mo’s familiar voice reached Ning Wei’s ears, she snapped her head up and stared at the man before her.

’Brother Xiao...’

Looking at Xiao Mo’s profile, Ning Wei cried out in her heart.

Ning Wei’s eyes trembled, her heart pounding faster and faster.

She never thought she would actually see Brother Xiao in the Zhou Royal Palace!

Compared to three thousand years ago, Brother Xiao hadn’t changed at all.

It was just that back then, because he practiced a Demon Technique, Brother Xiao was shrouded in a heavy aura of slaughter.

Now, Brother Xiao carried the faint air of Sword Qi, and there even seemed to be a light, scholarly fragrance about him.

But no matter what, Brother Xiao was still Brother Xiao. He had never changed!

Just as Ning Wei was staring intently at Xiao Mo...

Si Li, who was following behind Xiao Mo, seemed to sense something and looked over at Ning Wei.

Ning Wei noticed someone was looking at her and turned her gaze to Si Li as well.

’Sister Si Li!’

Ning Wei was shocked once again.

’Just as I thought!’

Sister Si Li really was in the Imperial Palace.

Even though Sister Si Li had disguised herself with a different face, Ning Wei could still recognize her.

The bracelet on her left wrist was the birthday present she herself had given to Sister Si Li back then!

’To think that Sister Si Li has become Brother Xiao’s maid.’

’Sister Yunwei was right after all!’

’All this time, Sister Si Li has been by Brother Xiao’s side, yet she kept telling Sister Yunwei that she hadn’t found him.’

’This means Sister Si Li really does want Brother Xiao all to herself!’

Meanwhile, Si Li was also very surprised to see Ning Wei in the Imperial Palace.

But she quickly and covertly raised her wrist, pressing her palm down in a gesture for Ning Wei to keep quiet for now.

Even though a million questions were swirling in her mind, Ning Wei knew to be discreet and managed to hold them back for the time being.

”This consort welcomes Your Majesty.” Bai Ruxue stepped forward, curtsied to Xiao Mo, and said with a gentle smile, ”It is getting late. Allow this consort to attend to Your Majesty as you retire to the room to rest.”

”Very well. I shall trouble my dear consort tonight.” Xiao Mo nodded, wrapping an arm around Bai Ruxue’s slender, supple waist as they walked into the bedchamber.

In the eyes of the palace maids, His Majesty and Her Ladyship were deeply in love, their eyes filled with affection for one another.

Some of the more mischievous palace maids even thought His Majesty and Her Ladyship were in for another sleepless night.

After Xiao Mo and Bai Ruxue entered the room, Chunyan and Si Li stood guard outside the door.

Although Lady Xue was said to be very shy when attending to the Sovereign and would use a Scroll that even mortals could use to block out all sound...

...they still had to wait outside in case they were needed.

However, after the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Si Li’s brows suddenly furrowed. She clutched her abdomen with a small hand and sucked in a sharp breath, looking to be in great pain.

”Sister Si Li, what’s wrong?” Chunyan asked worriedly.

At first, Chunyan’s impression of Si Li hadn’t been good.

Because Si Li’s figure was too indecently voluptuous, almost rivaling that of her own lady.

But gradually, Chunyan realized Si Li knew her place. She didn’t deliberately try to seduce His Majesty, and as she was only a maid, she posed no threat.

So Chunyan gradually let her guard down around her. Over time, the two even developed a reasonably good relationship.

”It’s nothing...” Si Li pressed her thin lips together. ”It’s just... my monthly visitor has come, and my stomach hurts so much that just standing here feels like torture.”

”Then you should go rest, Sister Si. I can handle things here,” Chunyan said sympathetically.

”But...” Si Li glanced at the door. ”What if His Majesty and Her Ladyship need something...”

”They won’t.” Chunyan also wanted to build a good relationship with her, hoping she would put in a good word for Her Ladyship with the Sovereign. ”You should just go rest, Sister. You know as well as I do that Her Ladyship never calls for us when she is attending to His Majesty.”

”Alright, then I’ll go sit for a while,” Si Li said, nodding reluctantly.

”Okay. Drink some hot water, Sister. You can go rest in my room first,” Chunyan said with concern.

”Thank you, Chunyan.”

After thanking her, Si Li walked toward the separate courtyard where the palace maids lived.

But just as Si Li stepped into the courtyard, she found Ning Wei already waiting for her.

”Sister Si Li... you’ve gone too far!”
