When Ying Yue followed the maid, she looked at the surroundings. They went through some halls. She saw a big and Bueatiful pond. Near the pond was a garden with all kinds of herbs and flower she had never seen. The sun was setting as the sky appeared in a mixture of light yellow and red colour.

The maid had stopped near the big door with pheonix carved on it. The maid knocked the door and a voice of a women came "come in". The maid told Ying Yue to enter and she followed behind her.

YingYue knew that this room must belong to the empress. When she went inside she saw young women wearing her bright red hanfu with red flowers embroidered on it. She wore less accessories but looked very young and beautiful.

[The Empress - Lin Yixin]

YingYue bowed down on her knees and said "This servent greets the empress" to the empress. Her elegant behaviour caught the empress's eyes. As she remembered her first time when she came to the palace.

"Rise my child and come here" told the empress as she patted the seat next to her.

"Yes... Empress" she answered and got up and sat near the empress.

"My ... my ... You are so beautiful and very polite at this young age" the empress said as she remembered her mother-in-law comment her the same.

YingYue told "no, the empress is more beautiful and my mother thought me the manners" as her eyes saddened when she was remained of her mother.

The empress patted Ying Yue as she comforted her " here ... Don't be sad. From today onwards you will call me your mother alright? ... Think of me as your own mother."

YingYue nodded "yes ... Mother."

The empress felt as if she went back to her past and had seen herself in front of her mother-in-law, the former empress .

Then she called a maid and said "Shi, take Ying Yue to the moon lake wing. She will be living there from now on. And send some maids to serve her". Yue thanked the empress and followed maid named shi.

The sun had set down , but the surroundings were clearly visible and bright.

The surroundings of the moon lake wings was bueatiful but it looked like it was not used for some time. When she went to the bed chamber , it was all dusty and some cobwebs at the corners.

The maid then excused herself and said she will send a personal maid for miss Ying.

Ying Yue didn't wait as she rolled up her sleeves and used whatever cloth she could find and started cleaning the room.

She also took some water in the nearby stream that runs into the lakes and cleaned the furnitures with wet cloth.

She was used to cleaning as she would always clean her entire house by herself.

After she finished cleaning , she shifted some furnitures and organised her room. When she completed she could see that the sun has set down and stars were reflected on the lake.

A young maid came rushing in with a tray full of dishes in her hands. When the maid saw the place she asked "miss Ying ... what where you doing here? I could have done it for you". Being a bit upset.

Ying Yue patted the maid's shoulder​ and said looking at her worried face "don't be upset, I cleaned it because I was bored and didn't have anything to do." With her simple yet bueatiful smile. The maid had never seen a women like her who was this kind to a servent and treated them as a friend.
