Chapter 390: Chapter 390: Sick Seedling 9th Prince_1

Wei Ruo was brought before Madam Yuan.

Also present were Madam Qin and another elderly woman Wei Ruo had never met before.

Madam Qin introduced her to Wei Ruo, "My dear, this is Madam Zeng."

Wei Ruo looked at her, gauging from Madam Qin's tone and demeanor, she deduced that while both were palace matrons, Madam Zeng's status was somewhat higher.

"This humble subject greets you, my dear." Madam Zeng slightly bowed, her attitude towards Wei Ruo being polite and respectful, much like Madam Qin's.

"Madam Zeng." Wei Ruo nodded to her in return.

"My dear, these are all gifts from Her Majesty, acknowledging your contribution to the people of the Taizhou prefecture."

A few boxes rested next to Madam Zeng, covered with red cloth.

Although the contents were not visible, Wei Ruo knew from the ceremony that they were valuable and exquisite gifts.

"I thank Her Majesty for her gracious gifts." Wei Ruo responded.
