Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Qingxue furrowed her brows and pinched Gong Lingyu’s little nose. “How can I be at ease? I should be worried about what you’ve said. Alright, since you and the empress dowager have already discussed this matter, I won’t worry about it.”
Gong Lingyu hummed in a sweet tone and smiled as she snuggled into Gu Qingxue’s arms.
The carriage drove all the way to the palace gate and stopped.
Gu Qingxue got out from the carriage with the help of the palace servants. She raised her head and looked at the sky, which had already turned dark.
The night gradually shrouded the sky. By the time Gu Qingxue and Gong Lingyu walked into Changing Palace, where the banquet was held, the sky was already completely covered by the night. There were lights on both sides of the road outside Changming Palace, and the inside of the palace was brightly lit, so bright that it was as bright as day.
All of the royal family and important ministers of Jing City were gathered here, chatting with each other in a particularly harmonious manner.
The moment Gong Lingyu appeared, she quickly attracted everyone’s attention.
As the most favored sixth princess, Gong Lingyu’s appearance attracted a lot of attention. Some Madams brought their women with them and smiled as they came forward to bow to Gong Lingyu.
“This official greets the sixth princess.” A lady in her forties wearing a dark red dress and a red gem mask greeted Gong Lingyu with her two daughters. She looked graceful and n.o.ble.
Gong Lingyu would smile gently and nod. “Madam, you’re too polite. Sister Gu, let me introduce you. This is the wife of the current prime minister.
Gu Qingxue observed Madam Pang for a moment, then smiled and greeted her. “The wife of the prime minister is in good health.”
Immediately after, she clearly felt Madam Pang’s probing gaze land on her.
Gu Qingxue was not surprised by this.
As far as she knew, the prime minister was Prince Heng’s subordinate. It was reasonable for his wife to hate her.
Madam Pang quickly hid the emotions in her eyes and smiled gently and politely, “Is this Doctor Gu, who has recently gained the trust of His Majesty?
I’ve long heard that Doctor Gu’s beauty is even more beautiful than snow, and seeing you today, you’re indeed extraordinary.”
“Oh, so this is Doctor Gu? I’ve long heard that Doctor Gu used to live in the countryside. However, seeing Doctor Gu today, I can’t see any of the suffering that she had suffered in the past. It can be seen that it is the Feng Shui of Jing City that nurtures people.” At this moment, a young girl in a purple dress behind Madam Pang laughed and looked at Gu Qingxue with hostility.
Gu Qingxue looked at the young girl, but she did not have any memories of her.
From this point of view, this person must be a dispensable existence.
Moreover, such a childish provocation was really unpresentable.
The smile on Gu Qingxue’s lips deepened. She looked at the young girl and asked In a gentle manner, “This young lady is..?”
The young girl looked proud as she raised her neck, as if she wanted to use her nostrils to look at people. “I’m the daughter of the prime minister’s concubine, Lu Qianqian.”
Gu Qingxue laughed when she heard this.
Lu Qianqian looked at Gu Qingxue in confusion. “What are you laughing at?”
“Young lady is overbearing, making me think that it was the ident.i.ty of a Di’s child that gave you courage, but I did not expect that you are only a concubine’s child? Even the young ladies in the residence are different from other families and are particularly bold. I think that Madam must have taught them a lot at home.” Gu Qingxue had a smile on her face the entire time as she spoke, her expression calm..
