"This old servant doesn't dare. This old servant offended Your Highness first. Your Highness is right." The old servant said respectfully. She had been in the palace for many years and naturally knew that there was a difference between master and servant. No one would compete with a Princess who had just saved the princess for an old servant like her.
Without the old servant accompanying her, Wei Ziyao went to the princess's bedroom by herself.
For the next two days, she stayed with Eighth Princess. She observed Eighth Princess's illness and treated her face with medicine. Except for the Emperor and Noble Consort Ji who came to see her a few times, everything was peaceful.
Eighth Princess's illness had improved significantly. Except for taking medicine on time, she was no different from a normal person.
When the concubines heard about it, they all came to see her.
The people in the harem all had ulterior motives. Only they knew why they came.
But when they saw Wei Ziyao, they didn't know.
Because they couldn't believe that the beautiful woman in front of them was Wei Ziyao!?
"Is this really Wei Ziyao?" The Empress asked this question for the second time today.
"Why would I lie to you?" The Emperor was a little impatient, "It is indeed her."
It had to be said that people were really visual animals. After Wei Ziyao became beautiful, the Emperor felt that she was no longer an eyesore.
As they were talking, Ki Chien-chul came. He looked around the room as soon as he entered, but didn't see the person he was looking for. Eighth Princess laughed.
"Sixth Brother, are you looking for Sixth Sister-in-law? You can't recognize her, right? "
Ki Chien-chul heard this and frowned. This person was Wei Ziyao?
He had to say that this face surprised him.
And his slightly surprised eyes were misinterpreted by Ruier who was standing next to him.
Seeing Ki Chien-chul's stunned eyes, she grasped the handkerchief tightly and then coughed painfully.
"Ruier …" Hearing her cough, Ki Chien-chul looked away and walked towards her.
When he looked at Wei Ziyao again, his eyes were filled with calmness and indifference.
Wei Ziyao could foresee that this master was about to start another round of asking for the antidote.
However, he did not dare to act rashly in front of the Emperor.
"This time, it's all thanks to Old Sixth's wife that Zhen's precious daughter was able to get better. Originally, I thought that you didn't seek to improve yourself. Now, it seems that our Old Sixth has picked up a treasure. If you continue to be so outstanding in the future, you can be considered worthy of him."
When the Emperor said this, Ruier felt as if someone had punched her in the heart. She suddenly looked at the Emperor, her eyes filled with tears. She then looked at Ki Chien-chul with an aggrieved expression.
Wei Ziyao happened to see this scene.
Tsk, tsk. Even a woman like her would feel sorry for him, let alone Ki Chien-chul.
Sure enough, he didn't even think about it. "Imperial Father, this son promised you to marry Wei Ziyao. You also promised this son to take Ruier as a concubine. Why don't we set the date of the wedding today?"
When Ki Chien-chul said this, Wei Ziyao suddenly understood.
It turned out that he didn't marry the original body just for the antidote.
He also wanted to give the Emperor a way out.
The current Emperor and Marshal Wei verbally agreed on a marriage. When they were young, he saw that Wei Ziyao was lively and cute like a porcelain doll, so he issued an imperial edict to unite them by marriage.
When they grew up, he didn't expect that Wei Ziyao would become like that. He originally wanted to casually find her an unfavored Royal Highness to marry so that he wouldn't have to worry about her.
However, she set her eyes on Old Sixth, who was very good in all aspects. The Emperor knew that Old Sixth wouldn't agree, but in order to accept Ruier, he didn't hesitate to agree to Wei Ziyao's marriage.
Ruier was the daughter of a criminal. The Empress felt pity for her and recognized her as a foster relative. With this identity, she didn't have the qualifications to be the First Consort.
However, Ki Chien-chul was afraid that Ruier would be wronged by being a concubine, so he agreed to marry Wei Ziyao, that ugly woman, and let Ruier enjoy the glory of being the First Consort.
Wei Ziyao immediately understood such a simple reason. The pitiful original body didn't even know it until she died.
But for some reason, Wei Ziyao always felt that Ki Chien-chul wasn't such a stupid person. Since the Emperor had already agreed to it, why would he bother to mention it now?
If he offended the Emperor, he would also offend Wei Shuai.
