With just one sentence, Wei Ziyao was praised to a position where she could be proud of herself.
"This tea naturally has to be served." Ki Chien-chul replied.
"Then serve the tea." The Empress waved her hand and the palace maids quickly brought the tea over.
Wei Ziyao took the teacup and knelt on the ground with both knees. "Imperial Mother, please have the tea."
The Empress smiled and wanted to take the teacup, but she suddenly stopped and looked at Ki Chien-chul. "I thought that you and Ruier were childhood sweethearts of the Sixth Royal Highness and would be a match made in heaven. I didn't expect that you would benefit from it … I really pity my Ruier."
The Empress looked at Wei Ziyao as she spoke.
Wei Ziyao held the teacup with both hands. The tea was boiling hot and she felt that her hands were about to be scalded.
When did she suffer like this? If not for her lack of ability, she really wanted to splash the tea on this old witch's face.
This old witch is doing this on purpose!
Wei Ziyao had to hand it to the original owner as well. Her father was the Grand Marshal of the country, a first rank military marquis. Logically speaking, even the empress had to give him some face, but she was actually so useless.
Just as she was gritting her teeth, the Empress took the tea and slowly tasted it. "Wei Ziyao, I also know that marrying the Sixth Royal Highness as a Princess is climbing up the social ladder. In the future, you must serve the Royal Highness well. The husband is the leader of the wife."
"Yes, Daughter-in-law will respect Imperial Mother's teachings." Wei Ziyao was unconvinced, but she still kowtowed respectfully on the surface.
"Get up, don't kneel. Otherwise, people will think that I am bullying this new daughter-in-law." The Empress waved her hand.
Wei Ziyao slowly got up. The wounds on her body were painful and she cursed the old witch in her heart.
When Ki Chien-chul saw Wei Ziyao stand up, he cupped his hands and bowed, "Imperial Mother, if there's nothing else, we'll go pay our respects to my Imperial Mother. We won't disturb you any longer."
"Go on then. Consort Duan hasn't been here for quite a while, help this consort send her regards."
"Your son obeys."
Just as the two of them were about to leave, a gentle voice rang out, "Big Brother Che …"
"Ruier, why did you come out?" Ki Chien-chul, who had just said that he was going to greet Consort Duan, was now distracted. He left Wei Ziyao and quickly walked to Ruier's side.
Wei Ziyao rolled her eyes in her heart.
"Royal Highness, if you still have something to say to Miss Ruier, this concubine will first go and greet Imperial Mother."
With the two of them being so intimate, Wei Ziyao felt that she was a bit unnecessary. She might as well quickly kowtow and return to the Eighth Princess to rest.
Who would have thought that as soon as she finished speaking, that blind Number Four would open his mouth.
"Princess Yin, what do you mean? This King doesn't seem to understand? You want to tell Consort Duan that Little Sister Ruier doesn't know etiquette and caused you to be wronged when the two of you were serving tea as newlyweds? Ha … how laughable, going alone, who are you pretending to be wronged for? "
This Qi Minghao …
Wei Ziyao glanced at her.
Originally, she didn't want to care about the two of them. It had nothing to do with her.
But someone just had to come and find trouble.
"I don't understand what Your Highness Cheng Wang is saying. Whether your Little Sister Ruier knows etiquette or not, don't you know it yourself? If she really knows etiquette, she shouldn't have come out to stop Yin Wang at this time. It's fine if the two of them are exchanging flirtatious glances in private, but in front of his new wife, she should restrain herself. Even I, the daughter of a martial family, know this. For someone like her who was raised by the Empress, she shouldn't not know. "
She spoke slowly and deliberately, leaving Qi Minghao speechless. He could only poke at her sore spot.
"Hmph, didn't you get your position as Wangfei by using those dirty and despicable methods? Otherwise, this position would have been my little sister's! "
Royal Highness originally thought that Wei Ziyao would be angry at him for saying this, but she actually smiled and nodded.
"Fourth brother is right. This position should have been your little sister's, but now it's mine. As someone who was taught by the Empress, I couldn't even win against the trash that you speak of. It really is a waste of her niangniang's years of teaching. This little girl isn't talented, but if niangniang could teach me with such care, I would have already been a competent Princess Yin."
