Sincerely? You weren't very excited about having to become a concubine of the emperor, even though they said he had a good appearance, besides, he already had an empress, why have several concubines.

Once you were chosen you tried best not to attract attention. You wanted to avoid getting into a power struggle with the other concubines or the empress.

And then you found out, the emperor did not spend the night with any of the women. Even if he called, they would just talk and sleep, but he didn't touch any of them, not even Empress Guizhong. That was a great relief, if you were chosen it was because of the stories you shared. That's why when they called you, you forgot the rules, you ate a little before he arrived, you spoke first and went to sleep when you decided so after telling him a story.

He told you your failures the next morning before leaving. You thought maybe you were going to be punished in some way for it, but he didn't call you again for quite some time.

You were the 9th of 10 concubines and with the mistake you made, you thought it would take you much more than a month to see him.

"This time you waited" Zhongli observes when he sees you again to spend the night together.
