The servants also noticed the smell, but did not dare to show it.

Although he was well aware of the situation, his face didn't reveal the slightest bit of difference.

Zhao Yuanzhi quickly covered up her expression when she saw the father and daughter. "My waist and legs have been sore recently, and I've gotten a doctor to prescribe some ointment. It can't be that bad, right?"

"It should be the taste of the ointment, Father. Some of the Chinese medicine's flavors are indeed a little strange. Mother's health is not very good, and she still has to deal with the affairs of the estate. It was rare for him to step forward and cover it up.

Yucheng nodded slightly, and most of the doubt on his face disappeared.

"Madam, the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and the manor is sending them over. Madam, you should take care of them and take a rest."

"Thank you for your concern, Old Master. This year's Mid-Autumn Festival will definitely be organized in such a way that it will not tarnish the face of the Prime Minister's Estate. " Although she did not know why she was speaking up for him, she was relieved to see that she no longer doubted him. She smiled apologetically.

Zhao Yuanzhi thought to herself, why would she speak up for me when I've always been so defensive towards this little bitch and framed her so many times? On second thought, this little slut probably understood that no matter what, she wouldn't waver in her position as mistress, and wouldn't dare to go overboard.

In any case, today's matter had already been covered up, and there was no need for Zhao Yuanzhi to ask any further. Thus, it was best not to think too much about it.

On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the eunuchs who accompanied Imperial Concubine Liu came to the Prime Minister's estate to announce the imperial edict, allowing them to enter the palace once more.

Zhao Yuanzhi prepared gifts to go to the palace.

Xiao Lan opened it to take a peek and found that Zhao Yuanzhi had prepared green pears.

She told him so.

The corners of his mouth curled up into a smile, and he replied, "Very good."

Xiao Lan didn't understand what she meant, but she didn't dare to ask. Fewer than prudent, careful, presumably have a reason.

Xiao Lan entered the palace with the gift.

Within Yongan palace, Rong Qian was accompanying Imperial Concubine Liu as they spoke. The two chatted happily.

"Reporting to the Empress, the young mistress of the Yu family has arrived." The young eunuch reported in a soft voice.

"Quickly announce." Imperial Concubine Liu's eyes lit up.

There was a faint smile on his face as he slowly walked in.

"Greetings, esteemed imperial concubine. Greetings, Sixth Prince. " Her voice was like warm jade as she kowtowed.

Xiao Lan also bowed.

When Imperial Concubine Liu saw the freshness, she felt joy in her heart. Her brows did not conceal the freshness of her liking. She elegantly raised her hand and said, "No need for formalities."

"Thank you, esteemed imperial concubine." Chu Yu stood up, looking at Imperial Concubine Liu with a respectful gaze.

"Come, sit by my side." Imperial Concubine Liu's face was full of smiles as she waved at Chu Yu.

Slightly smiling, Yuichi sat down in the chair beside her.

"Imperial Concubine, are you in good health?" There was a smile in her eyes and concern in her voice.

"Nothing serious has happened to my body. It's rare for me to miss you." Imperial Concubine Liu stretched out her jade hand, taking hold of it as she petted it.

Xiao Lan stood at the side, puzzled by Imperial Concubine Liu's actions. The present she gave to the palace was very thin, yet the Imperial Concubine wasn't angry. Instead, she treated her as a friend. This was truly out of her expectations. Originally, she had been worried that Zhao Yuanzhi would intentionally use a thin gift to treat the scarcity. However, all the way, Xiao Lan had been worried about the scarcity. Now, it seemed like it was unnecessary.

"With a faint smile, his eyes sparkled." Your servant and daughter are relieved that the imperial concubine's phoenix body is well. "

"Rong Qian sat to the side and spoke in a low voice." The matriarch was happier than she was seeing her son. This son of mine is probably going to lose his favour. "

"I didn't expect that my son would be jealous as well." "… …" Imperial Concubine Liu smiled. Every time she saw Su'er, she felt as if she had met an old friend. You're a good girl, who doesn't like it. Your son must be thinking the same as mufei. "

"A smile is hanging on the corner of his mouth." Mother, I will be your son's consort in the future, so of course I will like it. "

This Sixth Prince truly regards himself as a character. To be so straightforward in front of a imperial concubine, do you think that just because you say so, I'll be tempted by you and agree to be your imperial concubine?

Not much more than a glance at Rong Gan, who was looking directly at him.

There was an indescribable emotion in his dry eyes. It was not as cold as usual, and there seemed to be a trace of gentleness in it.

She quickly moved her gaze away. What was the Sixth Prince trying to do? He dared to blatantly stare at her in front of Imperial Concubine Liu. Did he see through her thoughts just now?

In his heart, Yu Yu was slightly flustered. Now that he had transmigrated to the Wu Country, he could only be a prince. In this palace, he had better restrain his spirit a little. It was better if he didn't anger this man.

She looked away and smiled faintly, accompanying Imperial Concubine Liu in continuing to speak.

"I have something for you." Imperial Concubine Liu took out a jade box, her eyes full of love.

The jade box was crystal clear and was of excellent craftsmanship. One could tell with a single glance that it was a high-quality item. If the box was so valuable, the contents would be even more extraordinary.

"It is rare for you to have such an idea, so you hurriedly declined." Imperial Concubine, this gift is too precious, this subject doesn't dare accept it. "

"This is something that I've bestowed upon you. You can keep it properly and open it after you return to your residence." Imperial Concubine Liu softly urged, personally handing the jade box over to her.

It was rare to see Imperial Concubine Liu sincerely bestowing this gift on her, so she didn't show any courtesy and could only accept it.

Imperial Concubine Liu was in a very good mood today. She talked to Chu Yu for a long time and even asked her to accompany him on a tour of the garden.

She felt a surge of joy in her heart. This was the first time she had seen Imperial Concubine Liu, and she felt a sense of familiarity. Imperial Concubine Liu was dignified and graceful. Her every gesture and gesture exuded a royal grandeur, but she was like a gentle breeze and gentle rain. She was rarely willing to be close to Imperial Concubine Liu.

"Xiao'er, my appetite hasn't been great these few days. However, after seeing you, my mood today has improved, and my appetite has improved. You can stay and accompany me for lunch. " Imperial Concubine Liu sincerely wanted to stay. She thought to herself, if this old friend of hers was still here, who knows how happy she would be when she saw how much spiritual energy her daughter had.

"Then this subject's daughter will do as you say." The corners of his mouth curled, and he agreed.

After lunch, Imperial Concubine Liu specifically ordered you to bring the fresh food back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

As he sat in the carriage, his eyes turned cold. "The gifts that young miss has sent to the palace today are all fresh and full of green pears. This is something this prince has never heard of."

"It's just a gift. The Sixth Prince won't keep it in his heart for this matter, will he?" Yu Yu coldly smiled and retorted. However, he secretly cursed in his heart. This Sixth Prince was really a stingy person.

"Both of you, stop beating around the bush!" Rong Gan's eyes narrowed, the cold aura on his face gradually thickening. It was just a gift, and it was even less than the lady had said. Do you know that the young miss has come to the palace to meet the imperial concubine just because she's the future Sixth Prince's consort? It would be dishonorable if she presented such a gift? "

"Sixth Prince, this subject has always forgotten more than she can remember. This subject has stated many times that she never wanted to marry into the estate and become your imperial concubine!" Yu Yu's eyes slightly raised as a trace of a mocking smile flashed across his face.
