Chapter 772: Grand Consort Yu Wants to Find Trouble
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Initially, Gu Nuo’er thought that Gu Rao should be someone who would back off in the face of difficulties.
If she didn’t allow her to cut down the tree, Gu Rao might just give up.
However, she didn’t expect that when Noble Consort Qiao and Gu Nuo’er were having dinner at night, Grand Consort Yu would actually bring the palace servants over.
At that moment, Noble Consort Qiao was feeding Gu Nuo’er a piece of pastry with her jade-like hand that was wearing red agate accessory.
Without waiting for the maidservant to pass the message, Grand Consort Yu walked in with a smile.
When she saw this scene, she smiled and said, “Princess, you’re already so old. Why do you still need someone to feed you?”
Noble Consort Qiao immediately raised her eyebrows sharply, looking quite dignified.
“Who let you in? Someone, chase this rude old lady out.”
Wanyin and Wanxuan quickly rushed over.
Grand Consort Yu shouted in shock, “Noble Consort, Noble Consort Qiao, it’s me, Grand Consort Yu!”
She didn’t dare to address herself in the same manner an empress dowager would anymore, afraid that the child, Gu Nuo’er, would look for trouble again.
When Noble Consort Qiao heard this, her red lips curled up and she smiled perfunctorily. “Oh? It’s actually Grand Consort Yu? I really couldn’t tell.” Gu Nuo’er didn’t say anything and only ate the pastry in her mother’s hands obediently.
In any case, there was no need for her to say anything. With her mother’s combat strength, she would definitely be able to make this Grand Consort Yu run away in fear!
Wanyin and Wanxuan turned to look at Noble Consort Qiao and saw the noble consort waving her hand elegantly. “Don’t chase her out for now. Let me ask her some questions.”
Only then did Grand Consort Yu go forward with a smile. “Noble Consort, seriously, how can you not recognize me?”
Noble Consort Qiao didn’t smile at her, nor did she bow. She sat there steadily.
“Do I have to recognize the Grand Consort? When I entered the palace, the Grand Consort had already brought His Highness to the fief.
“Furthermore even though I’m busy handling the harem affairs, you guys didn’t even come to pay your respects or greetings. Since I’ve never seen this face before, I naturally won’t recognize it.”
After saying that, Noble Consort Qiao suddenly covered her mouth and smiled. “However, when the Grand Consort rushed in just now, those who don’t know that you’re the grand consort would think that an assassin had barged into the Qiushui Palace!”
Grand Consort Yu’s expression froze and she could tell that Noble Consort Qiao was making things difficult for her.
“Noble Consort Qiao, I also watched His Majesty grow up and can be considered half an adopted mother. If His Majesty finds out that you’re talking to me like this, he’ll blame you for being too unruly.”
Noble Consort Qiao’s exquisite black eyebrows were thin and long, making her beautiful and s*ductive eyes look even more like they were filled with stars.
However, at this moment, her red lips curled up slightly, but her smile was cold.
“Unruly? Grand Consort Yu probably still doesn’t understand the situation. In the palace, I hate people who don’t know etiquette the most.
“If not for the fact that the Grand Consort had taken care of His Majesty for some time, I would have gotten someone to chop off your feet long ago. Let’s see if you’d still dare to barge into someone else’s palace in the future.” Grand Consort Yu was shocked.
She had once heard that Noble Consort Qiao was favored by the emperor and she continued to be in grace despite there being countless people in the harem.
Therefore, Noble Consort Qiao’s personality was very spoiled and domineering, and her methods were also top-notch in terms of sharpness and ruthlessness.
Over so many years, Noble Consort Qiao had killed many people and managed the palace with an iron fist. No one dared to say anything bad about it.
However, Grand Consort Yu didn’t expect Noble Consort Qiao to be so arrogant!
She didn’t even take her, the grand consort, seriously!
She stuttered in anger. “You, you, you…”
“Why has Grand Consort Yu gotten so old that you’re not eloquent anymore?
Why did you come here? If you still don’t say anything, I’ll get someone to invite you out first.”
Noble Consort Qiao smiled like she was sending over a lofty tower of waves.
However, it was like a soft wind that hid a knife that could kill without spilling blood..
