Venomous Empress Reborn

728 Anger (1)

The next morning, Shen Miao entered the palace.

Luo Xueyan and Shen Xin were worried about her and asked her to bring many guards. However, the guards could not follow Shen Miao at all times. When they reached the palace gate, they had to wait outside.

Before Shen Miao left, she put on almost all the jewelry that Xie Jingxing had given her. She was afraid that something would happen and wanted to be fully prepared.

When they arrived at the entrance of the palace, Gu Yu and the others were asked to wait outside with the guards. Shen Miao was led to the palace by the palace maid. Along the way, the palace maid was a little puzzled. The route from the palace gate to the Palace of Earthly Tranquility Palace was not simple. They had to walk past a few long corridors and a lot of gardens, but Shen Miao was familiar with the route. She did not even need the palace maid to remind her which corner to turn. The palace maid was puzzled. Could it be that Shen Miao remembered this route so well after having been to the Palace of Earthly Tranquility once?

The palace maid naturally did not know that in Shen Miao’s previous life, the Palace of Earthly Tranquility was where she lived. Therefore, when faced with the grand decorations and exquisite display, there was no shock in her eyes. If one looked carefully, they could see a trace of disgust flashing across Shen Miao’s eyes.

When they arrived at the Palace of Earthly Tranquility, the palace maid was combing the empress’s hair. Shen Miao waited for a while before the empress let her in.

Consort Dong did not come today. The empress was the only one. She was wearing a formal court dress and a nine-headed phoenix hairpin. Her makeup was exquisite, and she exuded a sense of oppression.

Shen Miao took a look and understood.

Did the empress really think Shen Miao was a little girl who did not know anything about the world? Did she want to use her status to press on Shen Miao and scare her into saying something? No wonder the empress deliberately didn’t ask Luo Xueyan to come along. If Shen Miao was really a 16-year-old girl facing the empress alone, she might be intimidated.

However, Shen Miao was not a little girl. The person in front of her was the empress. In her previous life, she was also the empress and had seen more than anyone could imagine. Therefore, she really did not care about the empress. Shen Miao lowered her head and smiled.

The empress slowly frowned. Shen Miao’s reaction was a little different from what she thought. She did not know if Shen Miao was pretending to be stupid or if she was stupid to begin with. Her gaze landed on the bracelet on Shen Miao’s wrist and she narrowed her eyes slightly. She smiled and said, “This bracelet is not bad. Come forward and let me take a closer look.”

Shen Miao went forward as instructed. The empress held Shen Miao’s hand. The bracelet was made of rare jade from somewhere. It was emerald-colored and extremely smooth. Just as she was about to praise it, she heard Shen Miao say with a smile, “Your Highness, my hairpin, necklace, and earrings are also very beautiful.”

The empress was stunned and actually looked at the jewelry seriously. The corners of her mouth couldn’t help but twitch. The cat-eye hairpin was paired with pearl earrings, and the pearl earrings were paired with an amber necklace. As for the bracelet and the jewelry hairpin, there was no need to mention them. They were clearly all expensive jewelry with intricate craftsmanship. Why did they look so ugly on Shen Miao? The empress suddenly didn’t want to praise Shen Miao’s jewelry anymore, and she even lost interest in the bracelet. She was even a little disdainful of Shen Miao’s taste. Back then, people said that Shen Miao was a vulgar woman who only liked gold and silver. Later, she thought that Shen Miao had changed. Today, it seemed that Shen Miao was still the same as before. At the thought of letting such a woman marry the crown prince, the empress was unhappy. If not for the fact that the Shen family’s military power could help the crown prince, the empress wouldn’t be willing to let such a vulgar woman be around the crown prince.
