Summary:

The women of the harem who mocked her as she who was once their caretaker wiped every floorboard of dirt and every wall of stains from thrown tea, who taunted her as they named her Ying’er and scratched her cheeks and pulled at what little hair ornaments young female workers for the palace were granted…how lovely, it is, to see them cry as their heirs are murdered and their princesses do not survive to become the bargaining chips for important nobles and stronger kingdoms, and for them, one by one to be forced to bow in obedience and respect to Consort Wei.

(Or, a look into something Wei might've been thinking about towards the last episodes of the amazing series that is Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace. Kinda angsty fic if you look at it from a certain way.)
THE FLOWERS THAT DAWN THE SIDE OF THE CUP HOLDING HER JASMINE TEA ARE BEAUTIFUL FROM A GLANCE, YET SO, SO POISONOUS ONCE CLOSE, A PRODUCT OF FAUX GLORY SHE’S BECOME ACCUSTOMED TO IF ONLY TO ENSURE THE DOSES OF IT SHE SENDS HER STEALTHIEST AND LOYAL OF MAIDS TO MIX INTO THAT WHICH IS DRUNK BY HER HIGHER-UPS JIA AND RUYI ARE AS UNDETECTED AS THEY ARE CONSEQUENTIAL... )
