Liu Weirong was in a good mood as she brought White Lotus back to Yi Lan Hall. Although the removal of the plaque and confinement for half a year might be a major blow to a newcomer who had just entered the palace, it seemed that the Empress Dowager did not want her to make a comeback.
However, it was not a big deal for her. She still planned to lay low for a while and learn to read from Granny Chen. She felt that she was really useless. Now that the plot was in a mess, she had already activated her cheat.
He could only finish reading the medical books in the space first. It would be best if he could skillfully use them.
She was only fourteen years old this year. After being confined for half a year, she would be almost fifteen years old when she came out. It was the age of youth and beauty. In addition, she had the spiritual spring to maintain her beauty. No matter how one looked at it, she did not look bad.
Perhaps after she was grounded, Murong Che would have another new favorite. That was nothing. She just treated him as a lifelong bed partner.
It was more important to enrich himself with Wet Nurse Chen. As for expanding his network, he couldn't rush it.
Bai Lian looked strangely at his master, who had been stripped of his tag by the Empress Dowager and imprisoned for half a year, but he was not depressed at all. On the contrary, he was a little happy and could not help but be confused.
In fact, Bai Lian was very conflicted. Old Master Liu had asked her to put Eldest Miss first, but it was Third Miss who had entered the Emperor's eyes first. When she went to the kitchen to serve the Lord's meal, Bi Shui had already secretly negotiated with her a few times, warning her not to forget what Old Master had instructed.
Now that her master was in confinement, she could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
She finally didn't have to be troubled anymore.
As soon as she returned to the Yilan Hall, Xing 'er came to report that Noble Li had been waiting for her master for a long time. Liu Weirong was startled. Why was Liu Xiangya here again? Fortunately, she would be grounded from tomorrow onwards and would not have to see her again.
When he stepped into the main hall, he saw Liu Xiangya's exquisite face. She smiled and greeted him.
"Sister, why are you free to come here today?”
Liu Weirong sat down at the side. White Lotus poured a cup of almond tea for his master and stood at the back. Xing 'er served a few plates of snacks and left.
Only Bi Shui and Bai Lian were left in the room to serve him.
Liu Xiangya looked at her carefully for a while, then she let out a sigh of relief. She smiled gently and said,""I was just worried about you. I heard that you were summoned by the Empress Dowager because of Xiang 'er offending the Imperial Consort. Now that I see that you have returned safely, I am relieved.”
"Thank you for your concern, sister. The Empress Dowager is very observant. She only ordered people to remove my tag and confine me for half a year! "However, I'm afraid that the Emperor will forget about me after half a year of confinement…" Liu Weirong couldn't hide her disappointment and frustration.
When Liu Xiangya heard that Liu Weirong had been taken away by the Empress Dowager and imprisoned for half a year, a touch of joy flashed in her eyes. She pretended to be worried and patted her hand, comforting her,""Don't worry, I'm here! I definitely won't let the emperor forget you." No way!
Liu Weirong secretly pouted. Did she think she was blind? He did not see the joy in her eyes, but he pretended to be touched on the surface and held her hand excitedly.
"Then I'll have to trouble elder sister to mention younger sister in front of the emperor.”
"Yes! Aren't we sisters?" Liu Xiangya smiled and nodded, but she didn't think so.
Liu Weirong thanked Liu Xiangya happily. She was a little hungry now, so she picked up a small piece of snack and began to eat it carefully.
After eating two or three pieces of desserts to fill his stomach, he took a sip of tea and relaxed.
" I'm starving…" she mumbled.
Liu Xiangya nodded to show her understanding, but she didn't eat the desserts on the table, nor did she touch the tea. Seeing Liu Weirong eat the desserts, she could sit still.
After Liu Weirong finished her snacks, she took out a letter and handed it to Liu Weirong.
This was the reason why she came today.
"Third Sister, I came here today for another matter. This is a letter that Father asked me to pass to you!”
Liu Weirong was startled. A letter from her father?
How was this possible?
Could something have happened?
She took the letter with a trace of doubt and opened it to read it. When she saw the contents of the letter, Liu Weirong's heart sank and her eyes dimmed. She thought that the original owner was not worth it. After thinking for a while, she looked up at Liu Xiangya and hesitated.
Liu Xiangya's eyes were full of smiles, making it hard for others to see her emotions.
"What's wrong? What did Father say in the letter?" Liu Xiangya asked casually when she saw that she didn't say anything.
Liu Weirong saw the curiosity on her face and thought to herself, Liu Xiangya really doesn't know? It was probably impossible. She was probably involved in it.
She pursed her lips and thought quickly about how to deceive Liu Xiangya.
Liu Weirong had guessed correctly. After Liu Xiangya saw Lady Liu at the Consort Ceremony yesterday, she secretly let Bi Shui contact Lady Liu and learned a shocking piece of news from her.
It turned out that Liu Weirong's mother, Zhao, had an extraordinary background. It was said that Zhao's great-great-grandmother was the first daughter of a declining family that had passed down their medical skills to the world.
Lady Liu thought of the dowry that Mrs. Zhao had when she first entered the family. Although she did not see the list of dowry, she guessed that there might be a lost medical book in her dowry. She had an idea and asked Liu Xiangya to bring her forged letter from Master Liu to inquire about the whereabouts of the dowry.
Liu Xiangya thought confidently that with her relationship with Liu Weirong, she would definitely tell her.
She also wanted to get those medical books. With the help of those medical books, she would definitely be able to do things more easily in the palace.
" Father sent me a letter asking me where my mother's dowry is…" Liu Wei Rong waved the letter and handed it to Liu Xiangya. She secretly smiled sarcastically. No wonder Liu Xiangya was waiting for her here. It turned out that it was for her mother's dowry.
What a good plan!
Liu Xiangya pretended to read the letter and then smiled happily,""So it's Father who asked about Aunt Zhao's dowry. Third Sister, didn't you tell me before that Aunt Zhao left her dowry to you?”
Liu Weirong heard this and sneered. As expected, he was here for his cheap mother's dowry.
Thinking of the priceless medical books and embroidery skills in the box, his heart couldn't help but sink. It seemed that Lady Liu had already found out about his cheap mother's background.
"Yes, Mother left me a dowry!”Liu Weirong nodded and admitted it. Seeing Liu Xiangya's beautiful eyes brighten up and listen with anticipation, she had a bad intention. Then she sighed and said in distress,""But I forgot where I put it!”
What was that? Forgotten?
Liu Xiangya's expression changed slightly as if she didn't believe her. She looked at her and saw her frowning and thinking hard. She was a little surprised.
"Third Sister really doesn't remember? "Try hard to think about what Auntie Zhao said back then…" She suppressed her anxiety and reminded him.
Liu Weirong laughed in her heart, but on the surface, she looked distressed and depressed.
" It's no use, sister. I never told you. When I woke up after drowning, I realized that I had lost a part of my memory. It was all my childhood memories..." Liu Weirong bit her lip and stammered.
"What?" Liu Xiangya couldn't help but narrow her eyes, as if she couldn't believe it. She suddenly grabbed Liu Weirong's hand, making her feel pain. She complained angrily," You said that you lost your childhood memories when you drowned?" Then why didn't you say so?"
Then, she glanced at White Lotus without leaving a trace. After getting a hint from White Lotus, she had no choice but to believe that Liu Weirong did not have Lady Zhao's dowry.
Liu Weirong sneered. It seemed that White Lotus was not loyal to her, and she was right to guard against her.
" Sister, you're hurting me..." Liu Weirong frowned in pain. Liu Xiangya was shocked and quickly let go of her hand to apologize. Liu Weirong lowered her head and cursed Liu Xiangya from head to toe in her heart."Sister, don't be angry. I thought that losing my childhood memories was not a big deal, so I didn't say anything.”
Liu Xiangya almost broke her white teeth. How could she drop the ball at this time?
"You don't remember at all?" She still did not give up and asked.
Liu Weirong shook her head and said unwillingly,""If only I could remember. Mother must have left me a lot of money!”
Liu Xiangya was disappointed to see that she was not lying.
"Sister, how do you think I should reply to Father?”Liu Weirong asked worriedly.
"Let me say it!" Liu Xiangya no longer had the desire to continue the conversation. She found an excuse and left Rou Fu Palace with Bi Shui.
Liu Weirong asked White Lotus to send them off.
After everyone had left the main room, Liu Weirong's eyes flashed with cold mockery.
When White Lotus came in, she saw Liu Weirong's dispirited expression and asked with concern,""Master, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"White Lotus, why do you think I'm so unlucky to have lost my childhood memories? If I didn't lose my memories, Mother's dowry would definitely be enough for us to use.”
Bai Lian saw her master's expression and comforted her for a while. She had already believed that her master had lost her childhood memories and had forgotten many things.
Seeing that it was getting late, she went to the imperial kitchen to bring lunch. After lunch, Liu Weirong was about to learn from Nanny Chen when she heard that Noble Liu had arrived.
After talking to Noble Liu for a while, Noble Liu had just left when Gong Pin came.
After a round of mockery, he left with his head held high.
Following that, many concubines came one after another.
This situation continued until evening. Liu Weirong was very depressed, and she had a deep understanding of the palace.
He was even more eager to enrich himself during this period of confinement.
In the evening, Xing 'er sent news that Fang Zhiying of the Guan Yu Palace had woken up.
Liu Weirong nodded to show that she understood. She asked White Lotus to send another gift, but her heart ached. This was all her private stash. If it wasn't for Murong Che and the Empress giving her so many good things, she wouldn't have been able to afford to spend all this.
No wonder he needed the support of his family.
She was the only one who had nothing other than her cheap mother's dowry.
Even with such a small dowry, his father had already set his sights on it.
How ruthless!
Just because of Liu Xiangya's noble destiny, everything was on her shoulders. Was he not afraid that everything would be for nothing in the future?
Was he going to give her a way out?
