Ding Wei sat in the study at Fangyuan Garden, sipping fine tea while awaiting Xincheng. He recalled the scenes he had shared in this very spot with the Empress and the First Concubine, Xie Yutong.
A faint smile touched Ding Wei’s lips as he pondered: there were a thousand ways to get along with a woman, but the most direct and effective was wine—getting her drunk. If a woman isn’t drunk, there’s no opportunity; once she is, she becomes bold... hehe. Since opportunity required intoxication, should he start the moment Xincheng arrived? Should he retrieve some wine from his system space now? He thought it over and decided that now was perhaps not the right time to drink with Xincheng. Better to let it go; there was no rush. There would be plenty of opportunities in the future.
