Chapter 729: Chapter 729: All the trouble caused by cucumbers(2)_1
"Lady Nan, a pin’s status is just below a consort, so when you see Ning Liangpin, you must address her as your Ladyship," the sixth son only hoped that Nan Feng would not bring trouble to Siyuan, so nobody would have to be punished again.
"Alright, I understand, then please lead the way," Nan Feng said, and peeled off all the cucumber slices from her face.
Because she had just applied cucumber, her face now looked exceptionally delicate.
Liuzi led the way in front. Since this was not work, they were not to pass through the Imperial Garden and the rear garden, so they had to use another gate to get to Ning Liangpin’s Tingtao Palace.
Nan Feng liked to remember her route, so while Liuzi led the way, she also committed these paths to memory.
Ning Liangpin was not a favored consort, but she was conferred as a pin as soon as she entered the palace because of her father’s high official position, hence her Tingtao Palace was rather unique.
But Nan Feng could tell that the Emperor seldom visited here - only five or six eunuchs and palace maids served Ning Liangpin.
Nan Feng thought that her own treatment was better than Ning Liangpin’s, as she had dozens of eunuchs at her disposal.
Once she stepped inside, Nan Feng saw a woman dressed and adorned exquisitely, about eighteen years old, and her beauty was extraordinary, even astounding.
Indeed, only when you arrive at the harem do you understand what a beauty is.
But beauties are divided into two types: the ones who capture attention at the first glance, and the ones with charisma. Ning Liangpin was the former, at first glance, she appeared stunningly beautiful, but at a closer look, her sharp features eclipsed her beauty, and now she didn’t seem that beautiful anymore.
The palace maid standing softly by her side was more pleasing to look at.
As Nan Feng approached Ning Liangpin, she saw that Ning Liangpin’s face had turned increasingly unhappy, and she thought to herself, it’s only about two pieces of cucumber, why is she so upset?
Women in the palace are really dramatic.
...
On the Siyuan side.
Virtuous Consort had already made it to the gate.
The Palace is so huge, this is Virtuous Consort’s first visit to Siyuan, but luckily, she was carried there.
Even so, she still felt the journey was too long.
For one, the Emperor ordered her to come and see Nan Feng. How dare she dawdle over an Emperor’s order? She merely changed her clothes before coming, even her dark circles were still there. Secondly, this path was too arduous. The houses and alleys in this part were relatively simple, lacking the refinement of her Cui Bamboo Palace. There were no sceneries, only monotonous palace walls occasionally adorned by some bamboo plants.
But once she stepped into Siyuan, it was a completely different scene.
Behind the place was a vast vegetable field and orchard covering more than ten acres. Having lived in the palace for so long, she was used to seeing palace walls and continuous palaces, and had never seen such a spacious farm before, so she immediately thought this place was wonderful. It felt like a caged bird had been set free.
Virtuous Consort then thought that the Emperor either loved or hated deeply anyone he put there.
If an unpopular consort were placed here, she would be naturally happy. But if she were placed here, it would suggest her disfavor with the emperor, assuring a joyless existence.
But the Emperor also explained that Nan Feng was the wife of Nangong Ye, and placing her here was very suitable.
The Emperor neither loved her, nor hated her, but used her here as a mere pawn to blackmail Nangong Ye. In case one day Nangong Ye claimed an important victory and grew powerful, it would stop him from rebelling.
Virtuous Consort didn’t know Ye Bro, so naturally, she didn’t know what kind of person he was. But she knew the Emperor. If the Emperor was using Nan Feng as a hostage, that meant Nangong Ye deeply loved this woman.
