When Lu Wushuang returned to her bedroom, she almost couldn't control the anger in her heart and threw the quilt in her hand. She didn't expect that Liu Qiaoer would enter the palace, and now it seemed that she would replace her as the most favored woman of the emperor. This was something Lu Wushuang couldn't stand. She couldn't let anyone replace her, let alone Liu Qiaoer. Liu Qiaoer would definitely bear a grudge against her in the palace in the future.
She needed someone to help her.
Her eldest brother was still in the Medicine Valley. Who could she find to help her? Lu Tingzhi …
Lu Wushuang thought of Lu Tingzhi and frowned again. Lu Tingzhi might not help her.
"Niang niang, what's wrong with you?" Lu Wushuang's maid saw that her expression was not right after she came back and thought that she was not feeling well.
"Tomorrow, send a message outside the palace and ask Madam Liu to come to the palace." Lu Wushuang whispered. She couldn't let Lu Tingzhi help her, but she still had her mother. Her mother would definitely help her at all costs. At that time, could Lu Tingzhi still ignore her?
The maid froze for a moment, "Yes, niang niang."
That night, many people in the harem of Qi couldn't sleep.
Zhao Ning was still thinking about what to do next. She didn't know if the Jin Kingdom had come to propose marriage. The longer she spent with Zhao Rao, the more afraid she felt. This was a feeling she had never felt before. Even when she was with Lu Yaoyao, she didn't feel this kind of chill from the bottom of her heart. She wanted to leave the Qi Kingdom. Even if she went back to Hua Village, it would be better than here. She didn't like the feeling of being trampled on. It seemed that she couldn't control everything.
At the same time, Zhao Xin was also restless. When she was in the Jin Kingdom, she wanted to return to the Qi Kingdom to complain to her father and teach Prince Shen a lesson. How could she think that the Prince Shen in the Jin Kingdom was her father? Didn't her father see her unruly behavior in the Jin Kingdom before? Although father didn't love her very much, at least he would greet her gently when he saw her. Now … I'm afraid that in the future, her status as a princess will be even lower.
She really regretted that she was rude to Prince Shen in the Jin Kingdom.
This night was long and flustered, but it passed in the end. Zhao Ning had just finished her dinner when a palace maid came to deliver a message that the emperor wanted to see her and asked her to go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity immediately.
Why did Imperial Father suddenly want to see her? Zhao Ning felt apprehensive, but still let the palace maids help her change. As she walked out of the western side hall, she saw Zhao Rao walking over from the main hall.
"Big sister." Zhao Ning whispered, "Why are you here?"
"I heard that Father Emperor wants to see you. Don't be too nervous, it might be a good thing." Zhao Rao was full of smiles, looking as if her wish had been fulfilled.
When Zhao Ning saw the smile on her face, his heart skipped a beat. Could it be about the marriage? Had Zhao Rao already sent someone to have her marry Marquis Anning?
"What good thing? Big sister, do you know something? "Zhao Ning probed.
Zhao Rao smiled. "I don't know either. You'll have to wait for Imperial Father to tell you. Hurry up and go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity. Don't let Imperial Father wait too long."
"Alright," Zhao Ning's heart ached. It looked like her guess was right. Zhao Rao had indeed sent someone to submit a memorial. Imperial Father must have summoned her for this matter. No, she would not agree. She must marry into the Jin Kingdom. She did not want to stay in the Qi Kingdom at all.
"Go." Zhao Rao looked at Zhao Ning with satisfaction. She had already received the news that today, there were many officials who had requested the Emperor to marry Zhao Ning to Marquis Anning. Even though Imperial Father did not immediately agree, she felt that it was most likely the case.
The smile on Zhao Ning's face turned cold. No matter what Imperial Father said, she would not agree to marry Marquis Anning.
"Big sister." Zhao Xin arrived at Sufang Palace not long after Zhao Ning left, "I just saw Zhao Ning, where did she go?"
"The Palace of Heavenly Purity." Zhao Rao calmly said.
Zhao Xin froze for a moment before her face lit up with joy, "Could it be that the Emperor has already decided to marry her?"
"It should be." Zhao Rao said, "This morning, my maternal grandfather asked the Emperor to marry her. The other officials also agreed to marry Zhao Ning to Marquis Anning. Even though Imperial Father did not immediately agree, it shouldn't be a mistake."
She still had confidence in her own arrangements. Imperial Father valued Marquis Anning and would not casually marry her. Zhao Lan's health was not good, and Zhao Xin was not fit to be Marquis Anning's wife. Only Zhao Ning looked smart and came from a simple family. Even if she married Marquis Anning, she would not be used by others. Imperial Father should agree.
Zhao Xin whispered, "Big sister, then … what about me?"
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Zhao Rao looked at her indifferently, "Lan 'er has not been married yet. You have to wait a little longer."
"Lan 'er's health is so poor. Could it be that if she doesn't marry for the rest of her life, I won't be able to marry either?" Zhao Xin asked, stomping her feet.
Zhao Kuang's lips curled into a smile. "Come with me to see Lan 'er. Isn't she sick?"
"Okay." Zhao Xin nodded.
On the other side, in Yikun Palace, Lu Wushuang was also in a bad mood. She did not sleep well last night. Early this morning, she heard that Liu Guiren had come to pay her respects.
"Sister greets the Imperial Concubine." Liu Qiao 'er curtsied seductively and looked up at Lu Wushuang with a smile.
Really … thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west. She thought she would never see Lu Wushuang again in her life. Unexpectedly, she met her again in the palace of the Qi Kingdom.
Lu Wushuang looked at her with a gloomy face, "Get up. Liu Guiren looks unwell. Rest well in the room. Why are you here so early in the morning?"
"Sister saw the Imperial Concubine yesterday and felt that she looked very familiar. After thinking for a long time, I finally remembered the Imperial Concubine. We are really fated. After so many years, I didn't expect to have the opportunity to meet again." Liu Qiao 'er said with a smile.
"I didn't expect the Emperor to bring a woman who can marry anyone back to the palace." Lu Wushuang sneered and looked at Liu Qiao 'er viciously.
"Marry anyone?" Liu Qiao 'er covered her mouth and smiled, not caring that there were other palace maids around her. "Isn't it all thanks to you that I can survive in Yiyin Pavilion? Speaking of which, the Imperial Concubine is not so clean. How can you say that about others? "
Lu Wushuang's face sank, "What did you say?"
"Ouch, I said the wrong thing." Liu Qiao 'er gently slapped her cheek, "How can I tell this secret? The Imperial Concubine used to be an Imperial Concubine in the Jin Kingdom. The Imperial Concubine's life is really good. No matter where she goes, she can be an Imperial Concubine."
"Shut up!" Lu Wushuang shouted angrily, "Liu Guiren, have you forgotten your identity? Do you think that you can step in front of me because you are an Imperial Concubine? You used to kneel in front of me, but now you have to kneel and talk to me! "
