Gu Chaoyan and the Queen exchanged a look among themselves and said nothing.
A while later.
Honored Princess Jing came in. She had just walked into the inner chamber and frowned, as if feeling displeased by the scent of medicine inside the room. She looked at the Queen and did not approach. Instead, she just stood outside.
The Queen did not need to greet Honored Princess Jing, since she was the Queen.
Gu Chaoyan greeted her, but Gu Chaoyan was the future Princess Consort of Lord Huai, so she greeted her briefly.
Honored Princess Jing said disdainfully after Gu Chaoyan finished her greeting, "Queen, you have been sick for a while, and the scent of medicine inside the room is too strong for the King to spend the night. You are the Queen, but you are still the King's woman, you need to watch out for this when the King visits you in the future."
