Su Rong thought it was true. Since her return to the Royal Capital, she had been quite hard on these court officials. Every day, besides dealing with affairs, it was more affairs. Even Madame Ye Xiang, anxious about her son, had to use Su Rong's birthday as an excuse to let Guixue take a day off. For the rest, they didn't dare slack off under her watchful eye, lest she deem them useless and kick them out of the Imperial Court.
Indeed, she herself was exhausted, and others too were being driven mad by her.
She recalled that she'd never been one to enjoy work in the past. While she could never fully relax, most of her time was spent idly wandering outside. She'd play around all day, and when tired, she'd return home. But this was different. Since she arrived in the Royal Capital, she hadn't the leisure time to stroll around its streets and alleys. The few times she left the palace, it was only to visit the Cui Family, Xie Residence, and Ye Xiang Residence.
