Shen Miao was silent.

Empress Xiande smiled and said, “Indeed, I don’t have to push her into the pond. The emperor and the Lu family understand this, but Lu Jing is the only one who doesn’t. It doesn’t matter if I take the blame or not. The goal of framing someone is to deceive the world. However, even you, who just came to Long Ye, can expose this lie, let alone the officials.”

Shen Miao asked, “Aren’t you going to defend yourself?”

!!

“I can’t be bothered, and I don’t care. Consort Jing can do whatever she wants. I don’t take it to heart at all,” Empress Xiande said indifferently.

Shen Miao thought to herself that she was completely different from Empress

Xiande in this aspect. If it were her, she would not take the blame. However, Empress Xiande was like the ocean, accepting and calm, making others feel very insignificant in front of her.

As they spoke, Weiyang Palace was already in front of them. Nanny Tao was waiting at the door. Seeing the two of them return, she quickly walked up to Empress Xiande and said, “Your Majesty, are you alright? Is Consort Jing alright?” After Consort Jing fell into the water, Empress Xiande asked Nanny Tao to go back first. Nanny Tao had been worried because Empress Xiande took a long time to come back.

Empress Xiande did not answer Nanny Tao. She smiled and said, “It’s fine. I’ll go and change my clothes first. Nanny Tao, take the princess consort to the hall and make her some hot tea.” With that, she went in to change her clothes.

Nanny Tao brought Shen Miao to the hall. The tea was already made. Nanny Tao poured tea for Shen Miao and couldn’t help but ask, “Princess Consort, what exactly is going on with Consort Jing? Is she alright? Why did it take so long?”

Shen Miao thought for a moment and said, “Consort Jing is fine, and so is the child in her stomach.”

Nanny Tao was suddenly stunned and almost spilled the tea. When she reacted, she quickly put down the teapot, but her face was very pale.

Seeing her like this, Shen Miao asked, “Didn’t you know that Consort Jing was pregnant?”

Nanny Tao forced a smile. “Princess Consort, you must be joking. How would we know? If we knew…” She did not continue.

If her pregnancy was made public, the likelihood of her giving birth to the child in the harem would be very low.

Just as they were talking, Empress Xiande walked out. She had changed her clothes, but what she changed into was a moon-white gauze dress with orchids embroidered on it. Shen Miao had to admit that after taking off the empress’s court dress, Empress Xiande suddenly looked like a different person. Shen Miao looked carefully and felt that Empress Xiande indeed had the aura of someone who came from a family of historians. She was a little similar to Pei Lang, but she was even calmer than him.

She walked over and sat down beside Shen Miao. She picked up a cup of tea and smiled. “This tea can help you stay awake.”

Nanny Tao suddenly knelt down and said, “Your Majesty, are you still in the mood to drink tea?”

Empress Xiande was stunned and said, “What are you doing?” Her tone was slightly stern.

Nanny Tao didn’t get up. She continued to kneel, but she was a little sad and angry. She said, “Consort Jing is pregnant. She’s pregnant and wants to frame you. How long do you have to tolerate her?”

These words were a little out of line for a servant to say. The originally good atmosphere in the room immediately turned tense. Shen Miao held her teacup and did not speak. Empress Xiande said, “You’ve been with me for so many years. I treat you as my family, but what you said just now is too inappropriate..”
