Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 750

When the Empress arrived at Taiji Palace, she saw that the gate was closed, but Liu Wenan was standing outside. Obviously, Xia Huanyu was in the palace, talking something important with someone.

After thinking for a while, the Empress approached the gate.

"Your Majesty. Please wait a moment. His majesty is discussing some important affair in the hall." Liu Wenan greeted the Empress with a smile.

The Empress was a little displeased, but she didn't lose her temper as the eunuch in front of her was a favorite by Xia Huanyu.

"Lord Liu, who is the Emperor with?" The Empress asked calmly.

Liu Wenan seemed to be in a dilemma. "Well..."

The Empress frowned, "I'm not asking you what His Majesty is discussing. I'm just asking who is in the hall. Why are you hesitating?"

Liu Wenan was about to reply when the door creaked open from inside. The Empress turned around and saw a smiling face behind the door.

The Empress's face suddenly turned pale. After a long silence, she suddenly sneered, "Oh... It turns out that Lady Shu is here? No wonder His Majesty refused to see me."

Lady Shu seemed to be surprised too and she swept a custsy to the Empress. But after listening to the Empress's words, she slightly raised the corners of her mouth and said, "Your Majesty, you must be kidding. Your Majesty can't meet you just because he is talking with Prince Qi. And Your Majesty should have just arrived, right? I have been in the palace all the time, but I haven't heard Lord Liu announce Your Majesty's arrival."

After saying that, Lady Shu ignored the Empress and turned to Liu Wenan, "His Majesty said he was hungry and asked you to prepare lunch." After glancing at the hamper in the hand of the maid next to the Empress, Lady Shu continued with a smile, "His Majesty must be very tired after dealing with political affairs for the whole morning. Please prepare some ginseng soup. Prince Qi has brought many valuable wild ginseng from the Qi city, which is said to be very nutritious."

Liu Wenan replied and took a glance at Liu Wenan and Lady Shu before he stepped back and ordered another eunuch.

Clenching her hands in her sleeves secretly, the Empress looked at Lady Shu up and down. Lady Shu's face was still a little pale, as she saw it in Wu Yan Palace the other day. And she did lose a lot of weight and her eyes look much bigger on her pinched face, which made her look more pitiable.

Staring at her watery eyes, the hatred in the Empress' heart thickened. "I forgot to congratulate you, sister. You are such a beautiful lady, how could anyone have the heart to let you stay in the Cold Palace for long."

Lady Shu lifted her eyes to glance at the Empress and said with a smile, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Since you are serving the Emperor in Taiji Palace, I'm relieved. I've heard that His Majesty has got a bad appetite recently. Lady Shu, take care of His Majesty." The Empress flashed a graceful smile, hiding all her emotions. "Yes, I know." Lady Shu also looked gentle and calm.

The instant the Empress turned around, the smile on her face disappeared without any trance. She gritted her teeth secretly and walked towards Weiyang Palace step by step.

With a loud sound, pieces of porcelain appeared on the ground of the inner hall of Weiyang Palace. The Empress still felt the suppressed anger in her chest, and reached out to hold the blue porcelain vase on the table.

"Your Highness, please don't be mad. These are all your favorite rewarded by His Majesty..." The madam persuaded in a hurry.

Before she could finish her words, the vase had fallen to the ground and broke into pieces.

"Bitch! Bitch!" The Empress shout with a sharp voice, blue veins standing out on her forehead, full of anger.

The madam sighed and said helplessly, "Your Highness, it's useless to be sulking on your own. It's really unusual that His Majesty talks with Prince Qi in private in Taiji Palace with the door closed. I think it's the reason Lady Shu could come out of Wu Yan Palace must have something to do with Prince Qi. Your Majesty could send someone to inquire about what Prince Qi has done to make His Majesty so happy that he even let her out of the Cold Palace."

The Empress's chest was still heaving violently, but she stopped throwing things after heard the madam's words.
