Shen Yueji snapped out of her trance and looked at her: "I'm fine."
"Let me in! Let me in, I want to see Imperial Consort Niangniang, please let me in! I'm kneeling for you, sob sob sob! I'm begging you! "
Outside the hall, there was a sudden burst of hoarse cries.
Shuang Xi walked out first: "Niangniang, this servant will go see."
"Zhaoyi Niangniang, it's not that this servant doesn't want to let you in, but Imperial Consort Niangniang is unwell. Even the Emperor himself ordered that no one is allowed to visit and let Imperial Consort Niangniang focus on recovering."
Hearing the argument outside, Shen Yueji frowned. Soon, Shuang Xi's loud rebuke came from outside the hall.
The servant girl from before was so frightened that she immediately knelt on the ground: "Sister Shuang Xi, it's not that this servant doesn't know the difference between seniors and juniors, but Zhaoyi Niangniang knelt to this servant the moment she came. This servant doesn't know what to do …"
A third-rank Zhaoyi Niangniang knelt to a lowly palace maid. If this got out, it would be a slap to Feng Qi Palace's face. At that time, there would be more discussions in the harem. People would say that Shen Yueji was favored and even the servants of Feng Qi Palace benefited from it. A lowly servant girl didn't even care about a third-rank Zhaoyi Niangniang.
Shuang Xi looked at Zhaoyi Niangniang who was kneeling on the ground and crying. She knew this woman in front of her. She had been sent to the palace by her father. Because her father had made a lot of contributions in the court, she was given the title of third-rank Zhaoyi.
Zhaoyi Niangniang was gentle and virtuous at home. After entering the palace, she had always been obedient and never used her position to oppress others.
Therefore, during the days she had been in the palace, she was quite popular in the palace. Moreover, Shuang Xi had met her a few times in the imperial garden. She always smiled and greeted her.
"Did something happen to Zhaoyi Niangniang? Why are you crying like this? Are you asking to see Imperial Consort Niangniang? "
Shuang Xi knew Zhaoyi Niangniang, but it didn't mean that her miss knew. Her miss didn't even know this person existed.
Thinking of her previous friendly attitude, Shuang Xi's tone wasn't as aggressive as before. He spoke to her patiently, "If it is about matters of the hougong, the Empress is the master of the hougong. Zhao Yi niangniang should ask to see the Empress. I believe that the Empress would be very happy to see you. All the concubines in the harem know that my consort was severely injured in order to save His Majesty. Now that she has managed to survive, His Majesty has specially ordered that Imperial Consort should stay in Phoenix Palace to recuperate and not allow anyone to visit her. I'm afraid Wu Zhaoyi's matter … "" No, I can only come to see Imperial Consort. If I tell Her Majesty about this, Her Majesty will definitely kill me! "
Hearing her anxious and trembling voice, Shuang Xi frowned. "What can't you tell the empress? If it's really something important that can't be told to the Empress, then tell His Majesty. His Majesty is kind and … "
"No …" Wu Zhaoyi's tears fell like rain. "No, I can't tell Her Majesty. I can't tell His Majesty either. If they know, they will think that I'm spreading rumors in the harem to confuse people. His Majesty and Empress won't let me go …" "Then what is it? Why must you tell my consort? Is Wu Zhaoyi not afraid of my consort … "
"No — I can only tell Imperial Consort Niang about this matter. Please help me, Imperial Consort Niang!"
Wu Zhaoyi knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily.
