Chapter 358 - 358 354 Scared Stiff
?Chapter 358: Chapter 354 Scared Stiff Chapter 358: Chapter 354 Scared Stiff The Empress Dowager had everyone add a little extra for the ladies to throw, and now in the inner palace, apart from the Empress Dowager, the Noble Consort holds the most power!
Without an Empress, the Noble Consort is the greatest in the harem. She and the Empress are separated only by a single rank.
So, seeing the Empress Dowager add some items for the ladies to throw, she also had her servants prepare more.
Seeing this, the other consorts followed suit.
After all, winning at ring toss is quite difficult. Adding more is merely a futile gesture, as no one would claim them.
So why not appear generous in front of the Empress Dowager?
The ring toss was arranged in a relatively open area of the garden, where many young ladies were playing.
After all, everyone was throwing items brought back by nobles. Winning meant keeping them—who wouldn’t want to?
Of course, some disdained participation, viewing it as a test, a way for the Empress Dowager to see who could resist temptation.
When Ruo Xuan walked over, an old eunuch handed her ten bamboo rings.
These rings were colored and even had exquisite patterns painted on them, far prettier than those common in the marketplace.
Ruo Xuan took them and asked, “Eunuch Su, how many times can one person throw?”
Eunuch Su was one of the old servants by the Empress Dowager’s side, aware of how much the Empress Dowager and the Emperor cherished this young Commandery Princess. He smiled warmly and said, “There are no limits, Princess. You may play as many times as you wish.”
Ruo Xuan then asked Gao Yan and the others, “Did you spot anything you like?”
Gao Yan and her companions took the rings passed by Eunuch Su and said one after another, “We found something, we’ll throw first.”
