The Empress Behind the Veil
Chapter 550 Not Looking At The Queen Mother At All



Oi! I am an article!


“Ya, sending a pile of low-grade items like this, really do not look at the Queen Mother at all.”


Since the Queen Mother was usually so loving and tolerant, plus Ye Wushuang's gentle temperament during the socialization of the past few days, all of that made the Aunts in Lixiang Pavilion more temperamental than the other court servants, he said, in comparison, the management in this place is much more humane. The servants in the other palaces would never dare to speak a word about their master, every day they were like statues or wooden pillars.

Seeing them so angry, Ye Wushuang smiled faintly and said interjected: “Auntie, what problem is it that makes you so angry?”


Hearing Ye Wushuang's soft voice, the two Aunts only realized, they were a little surprised when they saw Ye Wushuang's appearance.


One of the more experienced Aunts hurriedly readjusted her displeased emotions, she smiled kindly at Ye Wushuang and said: “Not a big deal, no, aunty Li and I were discussing the issue of the duku fruit sent by Consort Zhen.”


Concubine Zhen was currently one of the concubines preferred by Ji Xingyun, a newly appointed concubine after Qin Ruchen was put into the Cold Palace and her phoenix seal was pulled back. Qin Ruchen did not know what sort of Concubine Zhen was after leaving the Cold Palace, he heard people say that Consort Zhen was the one in charge of the Phoenix seal in the harem. The reason why Consort Zhen was chosen by the Emperor, all of that was entirely due to Zhao Xueyan's consideration.


Oi! I am an article!


Half a year ago, the Queen was rumored to have suddenly gone crazy and been put into the Cold Palace, it caused a huge commotion in the harem. For the sake of preventing everyone from accusing Zhao Xueyan who at that time was very liked by the Emperor, inevitably the Emperor had to raise Zhao Xueyan's younger cousin as a cover to cover up the fact that he wanted to protect Zhao Xueyan.


After that problem, within half a year, all the power of the Qin Family had been removed, then making the name of the Zhao family that had fallen into the background. All of that was very clear, even a fool could see the Emperor's intentions.


Many people even thought that Zhao Xueyan would definitely become First Lady later on, just that her reputation as a widow before marriage was blocking that smooth path. But someday, that woman will definitely occupy that high position, all of it is just waiting for time.


Ye Wushuang glanced at a glance with flat neatly arranged fruits on a crystal plate on the table, so yellow shone, instantly Ye Wushuang looked a little surprised: “Lemon?”


In modern times, his favorite fruit is lemon, this fruit is really the most delicious to consume in summer. At that moment, this fruit was really very expensive, just a few fruits cost already more than tens of Yuan, Ye Wushuang felt pain every time he bought it.


Unexpectedly, in this ancient time he could still see this fruit, Ye Wushuang felt as happy as meeting an old friend abroad.


Aunt Li was obviously not as careful as the other Aunties, she was an outspoken and frank person, instantly she immediately thieved and said dissatisfiedly: “Lemon what? It is sour fruit.”


“Acid fruit?” Ye Wushuang muttered, herself also felt that the name was a perfect match.


“Yes, this fruit is very sour, no master in the Palace likes it, Consort Zhen really thinks the Queen Consort is easy to oppress, she distributed all other fresh fruit to the other masters. When in the Empress's place, she instead gave a pile of sour fruit like this.”


“Aunt Li, this is a gift, do not say like that.”


“What giving, do not know what his intentions are, do not give other good fruits but instead give fruit like this. This fruit is so sour, what can be eaten? Empress, I think it's better to just throw away all this fruit, I'll report to the Queen Mother later, I'll ask the Queen Mother for justice for the Empress.”
