The busy winter seemed to fly by particularly fast.
From November to the end of December, Fourth Master really entered the imperial harem three times.
Once was in the Empress Dowager's Palace, and twice in Jinyu Pavilion. Other times, he only summoned Ye Zao to Qianqing Palace for a night.
Then, he summoned the children a few times.
Fourth Master was exceptionally busy.
Finally, on the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, he finished his year-end duties and held no more court sessions.
Fourth Master felt so exhausted that he didn't visit the imperial harem to see anyone but instead rested well for two days, preparing for the New Year.
This year, the celebrations felt restless.
Because the mourning period would come to an end on the sixth day of the first lunar month.
Before and after the end of the mourning period, everything was completely different.
