Chapter 826: Grand Consort Yu, the Villain Flourished?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The spring sun was clear and white clouds rolled in the blue sky.

The gentle wind blowing in one’s face carried a hint of satisfaction.

It was rare for Noble Consort Qiao to be done with the work in the harem. She brought the palace maids and eunuchs to the imperial garden to admire the flowers and bask in the sun.

Her fair fingernails were painted with red cardamom.

She was gently touching a rose.

“Wanyin, pluck some of these flowers and make them into pastries. When

Nuo’er comes back from school tonight, she’ll definitely like them.”

Wanyin smiled and said, “Yes, Your Highness.” At this moment, an uninvited guest’s voice sounded— “Noble Consort Qiao is in a good mood today.”

Noble Consort Qiao straightened up from admiring the flowers and looked back slowly.

Grand Consort Yu was supported by a young palace maid as she walked over.

Previously, Grand Consort Yu had suffered at Noble Consort Qiao’s place and then went to the Empress’s place to sow discord.

Unexpectedly, the Empress solved the big issue with little effort and grounded Gu Rao for five days.

Grand Consort Yu hated Noble Consort Qiao to the core.

Even so, when the two of them met again, Grand Consort Yu could still smile.

Noble Consort Qiao stood among the flowers. Even all the flowers couldn’t compare to her beauty.

She had a well-rounded and slender figure. She was not an inch fatter where she should be more plump, and her waist was so slender that it could not be grabbed.

Her makeup was full and her black eyebrows were black, but the rouge at the corners of her eyes was extremely red.

Just by standing there, it seemed like the competition for beauty amongst all the flowers was just to serve as a foil for her.

Grand Consort Yu couldn’t help but think to herself.

Noble Consort Qiao was indeed the number one beauty in the world who was extremely doted on by the emperor.

Noble Consort Qiao pursed her red lips and smiled faintly. “I still can’t be compared to you, Grand Consort. You can only walk with the help of the palace maids. Be careful not to fall. What scenery is there that you must definitely admire now?”

Grand Consort Yu’s smile froze.

Noble Consort Qiao was clearly scolding her for putting on airs.

She held back her anger and continued with a smile, “There’s something in my heart. The more I think about it, the more uneasy I feel. I can’t sit or sleep in the Zhuyou Palace, so I decided to come out for a walk.”

“Oh?” Noble Consort Qiao raised her eyebrows. “Did the prince, the princess consort, or the commandery princess or the prince’s heir cause trouble?” Her short sentence almost called out everyone in Grand Consort Yu’s family!

Grand Consort Yu laughed dryly. “It’s none of them.”

Noble Consort Qiao sneered softly.

She continued to lean down and smell a rose’s fragrance, her attitude towards Grand Consort Yu appearing very nonchalant.

Grand Consort Yu knew that Noble Consort Qiao looked down on her. n()0vE1BIn

However, she had evidence that Gu Nuo’er had lost the key to His Majesty’s private treasury!

Grand Consort Yu smiled. “This matter actually has something to do with the little princess. Although I’m not the princess’s real imperial grandmother, I’m still worried for her after she caused trouble.’

Noble Consort Qiao’s fingertips that were holding the flower paused for a moment. She slowly straightened up, her eyes dark. “Grand Consort, you can eat whatever you want, but you can’t spout nonsense.”

Grand Consort Yu said, “The little princess lost the key to the private treasury His Majesty gave her. Do you know that?” Noble Consort Qiao frowned calmly.

“How did you find out?”

Grand Consort Yu suppressed the smug look in her eyes.

“There’s no need to ask about this, Noble Consort Qiao. In any case, you have to know that there’s no need for me to lie to you about such a big matter.” The emperor’s private treasury contained the things of the previous emperors.

They were usually priceless or extremely precious treasures.

The heirloom seal to be passed down in the imperial family and not spread to outsiders was among them.

If Nuo’er lost the key, given how much His Majesty doted on her, he might not punish her.

In a short period of time, Noble Consort Qiao had already thought things through.

However, she couldn’t help but be a little worried.

If someone with ulterior motives were to take the key away and make use of it...

Wouldn’t her precious daughter become a little sinner?

Grand Consort Yu leaned closer and raised her eyebrows. “I think I know where that key is..”
