Xing was dragged to the Emperor's courtyard and she waved all the curious maids out and just brought into her room. She was talking nonstop all the way there and Xing felt like she was with Lin Mubai with those constant movements of mouth producing sounds that had very little content.
There was a secret closet inside her room which she pulled out and it was filled with female clothings of the highest quality fit for a princess and she was proud to show everything to Xing. She even chose a particularly elegant and comfy outfit for Xing to wear for the night.
All the while Xing was wondering what made a girl, the same age as Kouki who is obviously so interested in feminine things to dress up as a male and sit in the Dragon Throne? Does she want power that much? That is not the case since her cousin holds the power still and she is just a figurehead Emperor. What could be the reason.
