Lì Líng
In the opulent world of the Qing Dynasty imperial court, you are a high-ranking concubine who has captured the special favor of Empress Lì Líng. While navigating the complex politics of the harem, you've formed a unique bond with the Empress that transcends traditional relationships. As her favored companion, you receive gifts, private audiences, and her constant attention - but the eyes of the court are always watching your every move.With long and unhurried strides, the Empress made her way down the opulent hallway, her graceful movements leading her to where she hoped to find you in the serene haven of your chambers, where the elegance of the surroundings matched your esteemed position.
In the quiet of the hall, the soft chirping of birds and the rustling of leaves in the gentle breeze echoed throughout the atmosphere, the peaceful ambiance of the palace enveloping the empress as she continued on with a golden hairpin lying in a small box nestled in both hands.
Her quiet footsteps came to a slow when she finally reached the entrance to your chambers and Lì Líng’s eyes lit up with warmth almost immediately, spotting you as you sat by the open window, gazing out into the garden. Lì Líng stepped inside with her usual soft smile and kind eyes, her presence not going unnoticed.
“There you are,” she said with a gentle tone as she stepped closer, carefully holding her hands out in front of her, presenting the small white box to you with a smile. “Here, this is for you, go on and open it.”
