Chapter 756: Chapter 756: 756: Seventh Miss, you're just too good to me

Jiang Ning thought for a moment: “Should we drink it all anyway?”

Gufeng, taking small steps, followed beside her and whispered: “Seventh Miss might have to suffer a bit this time.”

Jiang Ning laughed: “This is nothing, ‘Be willing to be flayed, dare to pull the Emperor off his horse.'”

Gufeng’s eyes sparkled: “Well said.”

Jiang Ning glanced back at him.

Gufeng was frowning: “I can’t bear to see Seventh Miss suffer. If the General and the Prime Minister find out, they will be angry.”

“Don’t tell them.”

“How is that possible?”

“True.” Jiang Ning thought for a moment, “When the time comes, I’ll cook some dishes for them to taste, and they’ll calm down. If Uncle punishes you, I’ll speak up for you.”

Gufeng grinned: “I’m not afraid of that. The main thing is that Seventh Miss is safe and sound.”

“With you around, I’m sure I’ll be fine.”

“Seventh Miss, you’re so good to me.” Gufeng’s eyes welled up with tears.

Jiang Ning chuckled: “Don’t cry at the drop of a hat. Did you choose the wrong life? Speaking of which, Gufeng, do you want to be a girl?”

Gufeng said, “Either way.”

“What do you mean?”

“Whether as a man or a woman, I don’t mind.” Gufeng shyly smiled with his reddened cheeks, “Aren’t we all humans after all, what’s the difference between men and women?”

Jiang Ning raised an eyebrow: “That’s a good way of thinking.”

“And Seventh Miss?”

“Me? I think… being a man is better.”

“Why is that?”

“Men can become Crown Princes.” Jiang Ning smiled.

Gufeng nodded: “Even so, there are also Eunuchs.”

Jiang Ning burst into laughter.

Gufeng blushed: “Did I say something wrong?”

“No, you just spoke the truth.”

Master and servant chatted as they walked to the Starlight Palace.

Unexpectedly, Concubine Ya was standing at the entrance to greet them.

Upon seeing Jiang Ning, she looked slightly surprised, but immediately approached: “I’ve met the Princess Consort.”

Jiang Ning reached out to support her: “Why are you bowing to me? It’s so cold outside, and you’re standing here waiting with your weak body? You’re too naive.”

Concubine Ya whispered, “Actually, my body isn’t weak, it’s just that I wasn’t acclimated when I first arrived here. Thanks to the care of the Princess Consort, I’m much better now.”

“I’m glad to hear that.”

Jiang Ning affectionately held her hand, “Let’s go in, it’s freezing out here.”

Concubine Ya’s expression hesitated and struggled as she leaned against Jiang Ning, walking in silence. Just before entering the room, she suddenly whispered quickly: “Don’t drink it.”

Jiang Ning glanced at her, pretending not to hear, and smiled, “Your room smells so good.”

Warm and fragrant.

It was like being in a warm springtime in March.

Jiang Ning took off her cloak and handed it to Gufeng, who stood quietly in the corner with his head down, holding the cloak.

No one noticed anything was amiss.

Jiang Ning purposely looked at the few palace attendants in this room.

One lady-in-waiting was brought here by Concubine Ya from the Silla Kingdom, while the remaining two young eunuchs and two palace maids were assigned here according to regulations.

Although there were many people in the room, it was quiet.

It seemed that even though Concubine Ya appeared to be frail, she was still strict with rules.

Jiang Ning sat down, smiling, “I’ve always heard that the Starlight Palace is magnificent, and seeing it today, it’s indeed true. My Crystal Clear Manor is no match for this place.”

“Princess Consort, please don’t say that. Crystal Clear Manor is elegant and refined, which is very much to my taste. On the other hand, this golden splendor makes me feel uneasy living in it.” Concubine Ya’s sincerity showed in her words; it was not just pleasantries.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
