"As the old saying goes, only the feet know if these shoes fit, and only the younger sister knows if this person fit."
These words were equivalent to clearly rejecting Lin Jinxiu.
"If big sister can't keep a bowl of bird's nest porridge, little sister will send a message to Royal Kitchen and prepare another hundred and eighty portions for Consort Sister Lee."
At this point, she suddenly covered her mouth and laughed.
For a time, it was incomparably gorgeous.
Lin Jinxiu was so angry that she could not hide her expression. This Liu Ruyan was going too far.
She still dared to be so arrogant in her Cloud Flower Hall. If she was promoted in the future, wouldn't she be the only one in the harem?
Taking the bird's nest porridge out to talk about matters was clearly making fun of her for being too petty and haughty with a maidservant. She had lost her identity as a Consort Lee!
Lin Jinxiu was so angry that she could not speak, while Ann Miao'er watched from the side.
"How dare you!" Concubine Hui was looking down on him too much. You have only just entered the palace and you re already rebutting me like this. Has the person in the General's Mansion not taught you how to be humble and unworthy? "
They were now allies, so Ann Miao'er naturally wanted to curry favor with Lin Jinxiu.
Liu Ruyan almost burst out laughing, had she been taught a lesson? Is there something wrong with this Ann Miao'er's head?
Ann Miao'er, you are just a beauty under the Emperor. Although Fang Yi's status is not high, but according to the rules, you should pay your respects to me. Forget all the rules of the palace! "
She quickly redirected the question back to him.
Ann Miao'er was momentarily stunned, and was rendered speechless by her, "I … "You …"
Liu Ruyan had never been afraid of anyone in her life. Especially this Ann Miao'er, she just pulled one end and ran, a string was missing from her head.
"Enough! All of you, shut up. "
Lin Jinxiu berated, just at that time, Eunuch Xu rushed over.
"This servant greets Consort Lee. Consort Fangyi greets the beautiful woman."
The Eunuch Xu had purposely raised Liu Ruyan's status, and also gave him a reminder. The two of them were not on the same level after all.
In the end, Eunuch Xu was a person who excelled in the palace. A simple bow caused Ann Miao'er to feel greatly humiliated.
Her father-in-law was the emperor's personal bodyguard, and in the depths of the palace, even Lin Jinxiu had to fawn over him.
Lin Jinxiu's heart was in turmoil, and she was unable to figure out the reason for Eunuch Xu's visit.
"I wonder why Eunuch Xu is here today?"
Eunuch Xu rarely came to her Cloud Flower Hall. If it were any other day, she would be happy, perhaps the emperor would say something to her.
But today, that bitch Liu Ruyan was also in her palace. Hopefully, the Eunuch Xu was not here for Liu Ruyan.
"Consort Fangyi, this is …" Eunuch Xu did not answer Lin Jinxiu's question first, but asked Liu Ruyan instead.
"Concubine Hui is here to pay respects to me today. When serving tea, I was too exhausted, so I let her rest. Concubine Hui insisted on bowing to me."
Lin Jinxiu was the first to speak, clearing up all the difficult matters.
"Concubine Hui must have felt guilty because she had been in the palace for so many days and had not come to pay respects to Consort Sister Lee. This is why they decided to ignore Consort Sister Lee's obstruction and must pay their respects! "
Ann Miao'er also added fuel to the fire.
It was obvious that there were some hidden meaning behind her words, and Lin Jinxiu was too lazy to bother with it, hence she just so happened to use her small stomach to show her magnanimity.
How could the Eunuch Xu not see that these two women were singing the same song here. However, there were some things that could not be revealed.
"Insufficient physical strength? Consort Fangyi's body was delicate, so there was no need for peace in the future. She had to take care of her body. "Our emperor dotes on esteemed Empress, so esteemed Empress must take good care of her body and not allow anything to go wrong."
The emperor was the master of the imperial palace, so what was going on in this imperial harem? Unless he didn't want to know, how could it possibly escape his notice?
Most likely, the moment Liu Ruyan came out of the Zichen Palace, she had already received the news and specifically told the Eunuch Xu to rush over to support her.
After all, the role of the favored consort still relied on her to continue on.
"Then I shall thank the Eunuch Xu. If there's nothing important, I will head over to the Zichen Palace for a cup of tea."
Liu Ruyan was extremely understanding, since the reason Eunuch Xu came was to help her, then he couldn't blame her for taking advantage of him.
"Of course, this old servant thanks Consort Fangyi for his good intentions."
The two of them sang the same tune, causing Lin Jinxiu's expression to turn extremely ugly. The Eunuch Xu did not come with good intentions!
Once things were settled, the Eunuch Xu said a few unimportant words, such as dry weather, being careful against fire and so on, and then patted his butt and left.
On the way, he conveniently told her that the emperor told her to rest well and not work too hard. Tonight, the emperor would go to the Zichen Palace to visit her.
Liu Ruyan pretended to be bashful as she replied.
This time, not only Lin Jinxiu, but even Ann Miao'er could not sit still.
After the Eunuch Xu left, Ann Miao'er stood up, and said to Liu Ruyan by name:
"Liu Ruyan, other than using the emperor to pressure us, do you have other skills? Don't be too pleased with yourself, even if you are favoured, you are still just a young lady, far worse than the Consort Sister Lee! "
