Capítulo 243: Untitled

All the concubines stared at her, aghast… Hadn't she already reported sick? How did you forget so quickly?

Someone was about to mention it when Jian Xue immediately continued Meng Fuyao's question as she looked and remarked, "That's right, I felt as if someone was missing, turns out it was Consort of Virtue that didn't turn up, perhaps she had… forgotten?"

Meng Fuyao glanced at her and responded with an offhanded "Oh." Then, she continued drinking her tea and casually placed the cup back down.

The rest of the concubines then attempted to rise slowly and excuse themselves, but Jian Xue remained standing around at the back. Meng Fuyao was sitting down, slowly sipping her tea without looking at her. When the crowd dispersed, Jian Xue suddenly turned around and launched herself before Meng Fuyao's knees.

Meng Fuyao lowered her eyes and stared at her.

After a while, she smiled.

The new Empress had sure been busy.
