He originally thought that only the Madame Jin s would come to the Caixie Palace, but they never expected that the Noble Consort Ling would actually come. I was sitting by the window, playing with the small porcelain bottle that had always been a pale blue lotus. Inside the porcelain bottle was a mist of fresh flower dew, and I could smell the faint yet somewhat chilly fragrance.
There was a loud and clear commotion outside the door, the Palace Maidservant Inner Palace continuously moved forward, accompanying the Noble Consort Ling's arrogant and dignified female voice: "It really wasn't easy to see my little sister again. It's called 'Gui Ning'. Then, it's called 'Hunting'. "
Noble Consort Ling didn't care about my cold smile at all as she sat down. In the end, you do not have to be too courteous, little sister, because she is only a master of the Caixie Palace. "
I sat up and ordered some candied fruits, tea soup, and so on. His attitude was respectful, but it wasn't amiable at all. Even pretending was difficult.
Imperial Concubine Ling disapproved. Although she smiled faintly, it was still unable to conceal her arrogant attitude. "Today, my younger sister is actually hiding from us." Apart from paying her respects to the Empress Dowager at the appointed time, she rarely went to the Empress's pilgrimage. Not to mention the one at my place.
The Noble Consort Ling only took a sip as she offered the tea. I smiled unhappily, and said with difficulty in my hoarse voice: "Big sister Noble Consort Ling couldn't have come here today to criticize little sister for being unwell, right?"
My coarse voice startled the Noble Consort Ling. "Why is sister's voice like that?" A faint hint of joy could be seen in the depths of her eyes, as well as ridicule and pride. "The Emperor has always liked his sister's music, calling her 'singing' as melodious and melodious as an oriole. What's wrong with this?"
I sighed lightly: "Wanqing is unlucky, and her health has never been good. Now, she had only caught a cold, but her throat had turned hoarse. Not worthy of the emperor's love. "
Hearing my self-deprecation, Noble Consort Ling became much calmer. "It's my carelessness as an older sister that has always been taking good care of my younger sister. However, ever since you have entered the palace, empress and Imperial Noble Consort have always been worried for you, and it's not my place. "
"Elder sister is being too serious, Wanqing is just a mortal, she cannot be the empress, Imperial Noble Consort, and elder sister's love." The more I spoke, the hoarser my voice became. It was as if the sound was broken, and the vibration of its aura was louder than the sound of speaking.
Noble Consort Ling was clearly disgusted and couldn't help but interrupt me. "Since little sister's throat isn't good, then don't talk so much. I'll just listen to you. "
She put down the teacup in her hand and dabbed the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief. He chuckled lightly, "Does little sister know about the matter of Empress choosing a consort for the First Prince? I heard that she is the daughter of Governor Wu Jiang's heir, Luo Ying. "
I lightly nodded my head, indicating that I knew about this matter. But he did not understand why the Noble Consort Ling only wanted to know about this. While she was still in doubt, the Noble Consort Ling continued, "This is an extremely good marriage. The Fu Family was originally rich, and they were born into the army. "Even though she is now the Governor, she has Wu Jiang's world in her hands."
The more he said, the more excited he got. Noble Consort Ling could not help but reveal a pleased expression, "The empress is extremely considerate when choosing a daughter-in-law. But the First Prince was unwilling. She would rather die than submit. Does little sister know the reason? "
It is obvious that the Noble Consort Ling is already ninety percent certain, so the reason for the gap between me and the Empress must already be understood by her. But if so, it would be too childish to try to persuade me to turn the tables on him. I smiled without saying a word, without fear.
However, Noble Consort Ling didn't continue speaking. She merely asked as if she had suddenly thought of something: "I heard that back then, Sun Ya Bei really liked going to the side of the Blue Brook Guild's pool in the Shanglin Garden. The fish there were especially plump."
Looking at the color of the sky, Noble Consort Ling was a little tired: "I will not delay my sister's recovery, it is just that it is time to change my sister's doctor. Although Imperial Physician Li's medical skills are superb, he specializes in using poison against poison. "In my opinion, my sister is more suited to see Imperial Physician Sun."
