Chapter 859: 300 silver taels not hidden here

Bai Zhi didn’t show it on the surface of her face. She pretended to take a seat. While sitting down slowly, she looked at the Empress and the palace maid. Both of them were staring at her. To be specific, they were staring at her sinking butt.

Normally, who would stare at a person’s ass? What good is there to look at? The expressions of the two further confirmed her guess.

Just when her ass was about to touch the cushion, she suddenly stood up again and looked at the Empress apologetically: “Niangniang, I didn’t want to be unkind, but when this young lady was in the northwest, she became ill and this disease left the root cause, so I can’t sit on such a soft cushion.”

The Empress couldn’t help but stare at Bai Zhi. This girl must be doing this deliberately. Deliberately? She couldn’t see those things in the cushion. Could it be true that she had suffered from a disease?

What kind of sickness can prevent the butt from sitting on the cushion? She had never heard of it.

The Empress swallowed: “This cushion is specially made, it is not that soft. You don’t have to worry. You can try it if you want. After trying, if you feel uncomfortable, it’s not too late to change it.”

Bai Zhi took a glance at her surroundings. There was a chair of the same style to the opposite side. It was the cushion she had seen when she came last time. She didn’t say much, she just walked over and sat down and said with a smile:” Niangniang, it’s fine for this young lady just to sit here.”

The Empress almost vomit blood in anger, but she had to maintain her demeanor. She could only swallow this anger. Then wait and see before cleaning her up.

The Empress took a deep breath and smiled brightly at Bai Zhi “I heard that Princess Qianfang, who has been in a coma, is now awake?”

Bai Zhi nodded her head: “Answering back the empress, Princess Qianfang woke up yesterday, but she hasn’t recovered yet and is still under observation.”

“The Imperial Doctors are helpless. But the princess was saved as soon as you come. It seems that your medical skills are as wonderful as the rumors say.”

Bai Zhi smiled faintly: “This young lady only knows a little about fur, and she is definitely not wonderful.”

“Miss Bai is indeed a humble person!”

The palace maid soon brought the freshly brewed tea and snacks. It smelled normal, but she still didn’t move. Who knows that after eating this something happened to her? She shouldn’t relax even for a bit.

The Empress saw Bai Zhi didn’t drink tea or taste the snacks. Although she was upset in her heart, she didn’t show anything on her face but chatted with her. However, her eyes looked outside from time to time, as if she was waiting for someone.

As for who was she waiting for? No need to ask, it must be Chu Feng.

She suddenly looking forward to it. What kind of trick this mother and son going to play this time?

Sure enough, not long after, the eunuch’s unceremoniously reported: “His Royal Highness Prince Xiao is here!”

Bai Zhi pursed her lips and got up.

The Empress smiled and said: “This kid, why did he enter the palace at this time? I didn’t hear him say it before.”

What does she mean by 300 silver taels not hidden here? To make the matter worst? 

She was the dignified empress, does she need to explain this to her? Obviously, there was a ghost in her heart.

Soon a tall figure enters from the outside. He came with a big stride of wind. The exquisite and gorgeous hem moved with the wind. His straight body couple with a handsome face was undeniably attractive to many women.

But Bai Zhi didn’t seem to have seen it. After taking a glance, she didn’t look back again. She simply paid respect.

Chu Feng looked at her face since he arrived. He can’t forget about this face. His heart slightly moved now that he saw it again. And the corners of his lips involuntarily curved into a smile. His indifferent eyes now have a trace of affection: “No need to be polite.”

  1. the empress doesn’t seem to have a lot of experiences with scheming on others unless those that actually fell for their tricks are too ignorant
