I woke up as the Villainous Empress

Chapter 295: Girls-Talk time.



"Your Highness, the dress that you ordered from the seamstress has been delivered to the palace, and I have stored it carefully in your closet in your chamber," Xiaowei informed as she served tea to Yang Ning.

Yang Ning had specially ordered the seamstress to make a new dress for her according to her instructions. This would be her first time attending someone\'s tea party after marrying Zheng Liang, and that person is not just anyone but Guo Yurong. Attending her tea party means getting the opportunity to make connections with the elitist noble ladies of the capital.

Also, there is one person that she needs to meet at the party. She was sure that the best way to meet that person would be at Guo Yurong\'s party.

She cannot be casual about it, and that is why she had asked the seamstress to create a dress per her instructions. No matter how the ladies of this world dress up, they won\'t be able to beat the uniqueness that she will bring to her outfit.

After all, she does not belong to this world.

Upon hearing Xiaowei\'s report, Yang Ning, who was engrossed in handling paperwork in the study at the Dragon Pavilion, acknowledged the information with a nod. She had been working since the morning, yet there were still so many documents to read and sign, and all this work had to be dealt with by today.

Since the day His Majesty entrusted Yang Ning with the responsibility of managing the internal affairs of the palace, her hands were filled with work and paperwork that demanded immediate attention. It had been months since the former Empress was exiled, and there had been no one to oversee such affairs since then, leaving a void in authority for these tasks.

After Yang Ning assumed the position, which had been vacant for a long time, she had to manage numerous tasks and address them swiftly to restore balance to the palace affairs.

Yang Ning looked up at Xiaowei from the file in her hands and inquired, "What about the accessories and the shoes? Have they arrived yet?"

Xiaowei shook her head and responded, "I sent someone to inquire about the shoes and the accessories. They mentioned that they\'re almost done and just need some final touch-ups. They will be delivered by tomorrow."

Yang Ning nodded and said, "Hmm, that\'s alright. And about the gift that I have prepared for Lady Guo Yurong for her tea party, make sure to add some accessories and handmade hair clips and hair ties as well. Ask them to make it exactly the way I had instructed for my accessories but should also match Lady Guo Yurong\'s gift. Alright?"

Xiaowei nodded and said, "Yes, Your Highness. I will get on it right away and will make sure that everything will be prepared before the tea party of Madam Guo."

"In the gift box, I will also add some blush powder and lip tint as well. That day, Madam Guo was praising your makeup items so much. Should I also add the hair shampoo that you have made before?"

Yang Ning smiled and raised her brows at Xiaowei, who was now offering suggestions. "Looks like you\'re getting better at learning things. I am surprised that this time you\'re not only quick to get my orders but also giving me suggestions as well. That\'s amazing," she said with a surprised and proud chuckle.

When Fang Li woke up in Yang Ning\'s body and met Xiaowei for the first time, Xiaowei was not only a young girl who had served Yang Ning her whole life but was also confined in the Yang Household, just like her pitiful lady.

At that time, Xiaowei was a young, helpless girl who wanted to serve her lady well and protect her but felt too powerless to do so against the authority of Chang Ah and the Head Maid, who always tortured her and Yang Ning without any reason. However, she was glad that Xiaowei is now learning many things, and one of those things is gaining confidence in her ability to work and assist her.

These days, witnessing her work and tackling tasks without even waiting for orders first makes Yang Ning proud of her. That young, weak girl has finally grown up, realizing her worth and acknowledging her capability to serve as the personal maid for the Crown Princess and assist in her work and social gatherings.

Xiaowei blushed upon hearing Yang Ning\'s compliment and said, "I have been by your side for so long and have been working at the palace for almost a year now. It would be stupid of me if I cannot understand the reason behind your orders by now."

Yang Ning nodded and said, "Good that you\'re learning quickly. Now go and do your work." She waved her hand, signaling Xiaowei to leave.

Xiaowei bowed politely to her and was about to leave the room while carrying the tray back when Yang Ning stopped her. "Yes, Your Highness? Do you have some other instructions as well?"

Yang Ning pursed her lips and thought momentarily before saying, "Send someone to the Imperial Medicine department to bring Hou Wei. "Bring some milk tea and snacks to the garden. I will meet her near the lake." She said,

Xiaowei was surprised that Yang Ning was asking about Hou Wei but nodded anyway and said, "Yes, Highness. I will do it right away."

After Xiaowei left, Yang Ning closed her files and took a deep breath before leaving the study. After the incident with Chang Ah, she was so busy dealing with other things that she almost forgot about Hou Wei.

That day, it was Hou Wei who stood up to support the maid and prevented Chang Ah from forcefully entering the Dragon Pavilion. She wanted to thank her and also wanted to see what was going on in her mind.

Because originally, she is the female lead of the novel, to make sure that things don\'t go wrong for her, she needed to bring Hou Wei to her side. Only then could she prevent the story from coming true and the union of Zheng Liang and Hou Wei.

There have been many instances when she had seen Hou Wei giving strange glances to Zheng Liang. The gaze in her eyes didn\'t seem to be that of someone who works for the Crown Prince but something else. Today, she wants to talk to her and see what is going on in her head and her feelings towards Zheng Liang.

Because if she wants to have a happy ending with Zheng Liang, Yang Ning needs to make sure that the original female lead also has a happy ending; otherwise, her life will be nothing but chaos. Her happy ending will be possible only when Hou Wei is on her side and not against her. She cannot afford to have more enemies.
