Reborn to Be A Noble Wife - Chapter 497

Chapter 497 Who’s scheming, the cat that’s been carried away

“What’s wrong with this cat?” The woman who was high above, her face was gentle, just now there were a few points of dislike sitting on it, and did not let the palace maid carry the cat over, nor did she hold the cat and caress it as she did in the past, at this moment, it even made people feel that she didn’t like the cat in front of her at all.

It’s not just that he won’t reach out, there’s a hint of disgust.

Yes, intense disgust, but only for a moment, and the next moment, softening.

This is the harem of the He Guifei of so many years of favor, in addition to the Empress Dowager, this one can be called the first person in the harem of the favored concubines, not to mention the other palace concubines in the harem, and even the Empress Dowager on her, sometimes also had to avoid.

It was also because of her existence that King Jing had a fight with Pei Luoan who had already settled for the crown prince position.

It could be said that this one resisted half of King Jing’s side’s power, and in that respect, it was a bit more influential than the Empress Dowager.

Her appearance looks but more than thirty, although in some age, but more and more people feel soft, a word and action without a woman’s soft Wan, treating people is also very gentle, beautiful and outstanding, the harem of countless beauties, in this countless beauties, even if she is old, but is still one of the most outstanding a few.

“Your Highness, just now … just now met His Royal Highness the Utilitarian County King …” The palace maid was all in a sorry state shivering and shivering, her face was also scratched by the cat, this time also did not dare to rub, her eyes pleadingly Look to He Guifei, full of begging.

“Actually can’t even watch a cat, what use do I need you for!” Noble Consort He faintly said, collecting the disgust in her eyes, her voice soft and gentle.

The palace maid kneeling below, however, shivered into a ball and her entire body went limp,”Your Highness, spare your life, Your Highness, spare your life!”

“I would also like to spare you, just that this cat … has been harmed by you into this state, and how can I spare you!” He Noble Consort’s face revealed a hint of a mocking smile and waved her hand.

Two rough-hewn sisters came over, stepped forward and pulled the courtesan down one on each side.

The courtesan wailed and cried, but did not dare to struggle, and was pulled down amidst the pleas.

The voice faded away.

One by one, the palace people standing on either side lowered their heads, not daring to move a muscle, this kind of thing happened every time they encountered a cat out of the bag.

This has been the disposal of an unknown number of courtiers in the palace.

People in He Guifei’s palace know that this cat is not only valued by Lady Guifei, but also the most valued by the Emperor, who wants to look at it every time he comes over, and sometimes for a while longer.

This is why the soft-looking Empress Dowager was so distressed when she saw something happen to the cats, and punished those who did not take care of them.

Any accidental injury would punish the palace staff, let alone the cat being so frightened today.

Everyone in the palace understood what would happen to this courtesan, but there wouldn’t be anyone who wasn’t open-minded enough to actually plead for mercy.

“Your Highness, this cat is frightened, why don’t I carry it out for a while?” Sitting on He Guifei’s left hand side, there was also a young beauty, if this would be Qu Qiuyan’s presence, she would surely recognize this as the Li Beauty who met her earlier.

Noble Consort He didn’t answer right away, waving her hand, a Sister came over and carefully brought the cat down to be re-groomed.

“You’re going to carry the cat for a walk?” Noble Consort He looked to one side at Beauty Li, smiled slightly, and asked gently, “It was frightened just now, and if it gets frightened again in a while, it will stretch out its claws!”

The cat’s claws were long, but He Guifei never thought to cut them.

“Don’t worry, Your Highness, I will be careful, I won’t let it get scared again, take it out for a spin, it was really hard for it just now.” Beauty Li smiled and answered.

She would go to He Guifei’s place in the past days, and occasionally had the chance to hug this cat, and felt that this cat was very gentle, of course there were palace people privately when she hugged, carefully reminded her that this cat looked gentle, if it was startled, the claws would light up and scratch, and it needed to be more careful.

Only, the cat was the purpose of her visit today.

Now that the cat is in shock that’s even better!

She had already been scared once, and if she was scared again, the reaction was bound to be even more violent, and that would be a real surprise, and she couldn’t be blamed for that, could she!

The cat is Noble Consort He’s, and if something goes wrong, it can’t be blamed on Noble Consort He’s head, and it certainly can’t be blamed on her own head.

“Why is it so early today that you’re in the mood to hold a cat and go out for a stroll?” Noble Consort He smiled faintly, not saying that she agreed or disagreed, but just cast a sidelong glance at Beauty Li and asked.

It was rare that Beauty Li came over early this morning to chat with her, it was rare to see Beauty Li come so early at this time of the day in the past.

“Remembering some old events, I couldn’t sleep for a while, so I purposely came here a little earlier, I don’t know if I disturbed Your Highness.” Beauty Li sighed, her brows knotted.

She entered the palace a long time later than He Guifei, after entering the palace, although occasionally also be flipped, but compared to He Guifei is completely incomparable, homesickness is also normal.

Women in the palace, lonely, naturally, is more lonely than the palace flowers.

“Be careful when you go out in a while, the cat is frightened, it needs to be soothed properly, originally I wanted to pacify it here, since Beauty Li has the intention to take it out, then when it’s cleaned up, Beauty Li will carry it away that is!”

He Guifei is very good to talk, also did not because Li Meiren, just a small beauty and belittle her, than in the overbearing Empress Dowager, here in the palace of the little master is more willing to go to He Guifei, this is also Li Meiren and He Guifei especially close to the reason.

“Many thanks, Your Highness, don’t worry, I’ll be careful!” Li Meiren stood up with a smile on her face and gave a sideways salute to Noble Consort He.

“Sit down and talk, why be polite!” Noble Consort He laughed, and after inviting Beauty Li to sit down, she made a point of reminding her that cats are frightened and can scratch, so she should be especially careful.

This was repeatedly urged, and Beauty Li smiled and responded repeatedly.

By this time, the cat had been re-groomed and dried, and although it wasn’t completely fluffed, it should be all dry in just a few more moments.

Li Mei Ren carefully from the hands of the palace people, holding the cat over, reached out and gently touched in her hand, the cat issued a purring sound, eyes also narrowed up, very comfortable look.

In the past days, Li Mei people also often come over to hug, but there is no point of not familiar with this, was sent to Li Mei people’s arms are not shocked, and peaceful very much.

“Your Highness, then I’ll go out for a walk and come back later!” Beauty Li picked up the cat and bowed to Noble Consort He.

“Good, be careful!” Noble Consort He admonished with a smile.

“Your Highness don’t worry!” Beauty Li answered, then retreated with her people, feeling pleased in her heart, sure enough, this cat came easy.

Watching Li Beauty leave, He Guifei’s lips wordlessly hooked, revealing a hint of a smile, her gaze falling on Li Beauty’s back, meaning unknown …

He Guifei did not say anything, the palace people on both sides of the lowered their heads one by one, did not dare to speak …

Qu Mo Ying and Qu Qiu Yan arrived at the palace gate of the Qu Tai Fei, there was already a big palace maid by the side of the Qu Tai Fei, Hanyu, waiting in front of the door, saw them out of the sedan chair and went up to welcome them with a smile, “Meet the two young ladies!”

Qu Qiuyan and Qu Mo Ying hurriedly returned the salute, for the Grand Palace Maiden beside Dowager Consort Qu, the two of them wouldn’t dare to treat her slowly.

It was just that in the past, the ones who came to welcome were ordinary palace people, today, how could it be a big palace maid beside Mrs. Qu, the two were quite surprised.

“The Imperial Concubine has already had people look at it many times, and has not been able to see the two young ladies, just now she wanted to send someone out again, and it just so happens that the slave girl has nothing to do, so she purposely begged for this errand to come out and take a look at it.”

Hanyu smiled and explained.

So it was like this, the two people looked at each other and said a few words of politeness to Hanyu again, then followed behind Hanyu and entered the hall together.

In the main hall, Mrs. Qu was already waiting early, her spirit was already much better compared to before, looking like although she was still a bit sickly, it wasn’t a very serious look.

When he saw them come in, a smile immediately appeared on his face, and after the two of them had saluted, he hurriedly allowed them to take their seats.

Life in the palace was originally lonely, not to mention that an old dowager consort like her, who was old and childless, liked it best when her juniors came to see her.

The two people sat beside Dowager Consort Qu on the left and right, and the palace people brought tea and snacks.

“Has the matter with King Jing been finalized?” This time, Tai Consort Qu did not ask Qu Mo Ying first and turned to Qu Qiuyan on the side.

Qu Qiuyan’s head lowered, her face slightly red with shyness, “It’s already settled!”

“Just a concubine consort?” Crown Princess Qu frowned, this result made her dislike it.

Qu Qiuyan’s head lowered and nodded again, the blush on her face receding slightly, “Father and His Highness King Jing agreed on this!”

It was said with a touch of bitterness and looked resigned.

“Your father is confused, is your grandmother also so confused? With your status, even if you can’t be King Jing’s main consort, it’s still more than enough to be a side consort, how could you …” Mrs. Qu’s brows furrowed, very unhappy.

This thing happened too fast, even if she wanted to turn around it was already too late, just for Qu Qiuyan feel pity.

She doesn’t have many relatives now, she just treats the few of the Qu Mansion as her juniors, which is also the reason why she truly loves them, so there are a few points in this statement that blame Mrs. Qu.

Qu Mo Ying gently pursed her lips, her watery eyes looked coldly at Qu Qiu Yan underneath the veil of her eyes, how exactly this matter is, she and Qu Qiu Yan are the most aware of it.

If Qu Qiuyan persisted in talking about this matter and caused the Dowager Empress to be displeased with her grandmother, then don’t blame her for tearing Qu Qiuyan’s façade off.

Aggrieved?

Qu Qiuyan is not aggrieved at all in this matter, it is entirely her own doing, no one to blame!

Qu Qiuyan took a handkerchief and gently wiped it at the corner of her eyes, wiping away the tear tracks that were not there originally, wiping her eyes red, looking as if she had really cried, with a hint of a forced smile on her face, “Your Highness, this is a bit of a misadventure, and there is no way that grandmother and father can do anything about it! Right now … it can only be so!”

“This child of yours …,” Crown Princess Qu was also extremely helpless and sighed.

“Your Highness, Noble Consort He will soon be celebrating her birthday, grandmother asked me to specially bring a gift over, in a moment, please trouble Sister Yan to help me send it over, is that alright?” Seeing that the timing was rare, Qu Qiuyan hurriedly said.
