Nanny Tao stood behind her and smiled. “The lotus flowers are blooming well this year.”

Empress Xiande took a look and said with a smile, “Last year, I got someone to change the seeds. This year, it’s really much more pleasing to the eye.”

As they spoke, they saw someone walking past from afar. That person seemed to have seen Empress Xiande and the others and paused for a moment before turning around and walking towards the pavilion.

!!

When that person walked closer, Empress Xiande saw that it was none other than Consort Jing.

Compared to before, Consort Jing looked much more disheveled today. Or rather, Consort Jing had not been in good condition for the past few days. She seemed to be in no mood to dress up, and her usually beautiful face looked a little tired.

However, when she saw Empress Xiande, her tiredness immediately turned into hatred.

She said, “I saw someone here from afar. I was wondering who was in such a

good mood to appreciate the flowers. So it’s the empress.”

Empress Xiande smiled noncommittally and said, “I’m drinking tea here. Consort Jing, do you want a cup?”

Consort Jing sneered at her and said, “You are in the mood to drink tea, but I’m not.”

Emperor Yong Le had begun to suppress the Lu family. Although the women in the harem did not know what was going on in the imperial court, they could guess one thing or two from the frequency of visits the emperor paid to the consorts. It was clear that Consort Jing was losing favor.

Empress Xiande smiled and continued to pour tea. “The tea is here whether you are in the mood to drink it or not.”

Consort Jing was so angry that she was trembling.

Madam Lu went to the palace to look for her and said that Emperor Yong Le had made a move on the Lu family. She also asked her to find out what Emperor Yong Le was up to. If necessary, she had to beg for mercy.

However, even if Consort Jing did it, it was useless. In fact, all these years,

Emperor Yong Le had indeed doted on her a lot. Even in the harem, Empress Xiande had to be respectful to her. No matter how arrogant she was, she would always be safe in the end. However, she had never been able to change Emperor Yong Le’s mind.

Now that the Lu family was in trouble and needed her help, Consort Jing went to look for Emperor Yong Le. What caught her off guard was that Emperor

Yong Le’s attitude suddenlv turned cold.

Consort Jing had a smooth-sailing life and had never suffered much. When she entered the palace, she easily became a consort with the support of the Lu family. Now that the Lu family was in trouble, she was also implicated. However, she realized that for so many years, other than making enemies in the palace, she had done nothing.

On the other hand, Empress Xiande, whom she had always looked down on, was sitting in the pavilion and drinking tea leisurely. Consort Jing was filled with anger.

She thought that Emperor Yong Le did not love Empress Xiande, but Empress Xiande could get everyone’s respect because of her status as the empress. This was too unfair. If she was the empress, Emperor Yong Le would not dare to lay hands on the Lu family.

Consort Jing immediately felt resentful.

Consort Jing quietly took a few steps closer to Empress Xiande and said, “The tea indeed smells fragrant. I wonder how it tastes.” As soon as she finished speaking, she screamed and pretended to sprain her ankle, falling towards

Empress Xiande. Empress Xiande was on the side facing the pond. If she fell on Empress Xiande like this, Empress Xiande would be knocked into the water!

Consort Jing was stupid, but Empress Xiande was not. She had been on guard against Consort Jing the moment she appeared. Seeing Consort Jing falling towards her, she immediately took a step to the left and avoided her.

With a plop, water splashed.

Consort Jing’s personal maid suddenly screamed..
