”The maids around you have all been spoiled by you!” The empress dowager snickered. ”You don't have to worry about it either.”

”The maidservants are all very cute. If I manage all of them too strictly, they would lose their true nature. Wouldn't the entire courtyard be deathly silent?” After Yun Ruoleng said this, he suddenly looked towards Zhang Qinyue, ”The maids by the side of the Third Emperor's sister-in-law are like this, they look down and do not have any spirit.”

”How did my sister get involved with me again?” Zhang Qinyue frowned in displeasure. This woman had a sharp tongue, she wasn't easy to deal with. As soon as she walked in, she immediately laid a trap for herself.

”I'm telling the truth.” Yun Ruoleng sighed: ”Just now when I was at the door, I saw the little girl lowering her head and looking straight into her eyes, there was a hint of worry between her brows, putting such a person by her side would only cause my imperial sister-in-law to lose her popularity, luckily my imperial sister-in-law is a meticulous person, and push her away.”

”Haha …” Zhang Qin Yue smiled awkwardly at Yun Ruoleng. Although the reason why she said that was so that everyone wouldn't be unhappy, but someone with a good heart would definitely understand.

As expected, the empress dowager's eyebrows unconsciously furrowed as she waved at Yun Ruoleng. ”It's been a few days since we've last met, but the cold girl has grown even more exquisite.”

”The prince's residence has good feng shui, the prince and the empress dowager love Leng Er, so naturally, they grew more exquisite.” The empress dowager could laugh at the fact that Yun Ruoleng was trying to curry favor with the old man.

The empress dowager was happy, but those seated below had to smile even if they were unhappy. In a short while, the atmosphere in the hall reached its peak. Yun Ruoleng took out a painting of the Buddha from his sleeve, and passed it onto the empress dowager as if he was offering a treasure: ”Leng Er does not have anything for you this time, this is the portrait Leng Er gave me a few days ago. I wonder if the empress dowager would like it?”

There was a saying, like you, then like all of it. The empress dowager really liked Yun Ruoleng, so naturally, she couldn't let go of this painting.

As he sat and looked at the paintings Yun Ruoleng had taken out, he remembered that Yun Ruoleng was publicly recognized as a master painter by the heaven, someone women like him would never be able to get jealous of. The women who said at the door that she was a vase looked at the painting and did not dare to breathe.

By his side, after Jun Qingshang obtained a list of names, he saw An Xiang rushing in. Before he even had the chance to ask, An Xiang had already opened his mouth: ”Your Highness, something bad happened.”

Jun Qingshang placed the name list back into his sleeves, his expression slightly cold: ”What happened?”

”Feng Wangfei sent someone to …” An Xiang paused for a moment, and then said softly, ”Feng Wangfei arranged for people to put some medicine in the tea. In order not to alert the enemy, this subordinate has no choice but to come and report, I'm afraid it's already too late.”

Jun Qingshang glared at An Xiang, which almost made An Xiang's legs go weak. Luckily, An Ying helped her up quickly: ”Follow quickly!”

An Xiang choked on his saliva, and quickly adjusted his attitude, then quickly chased after them. Jun Qingshang was extremely fast, An Ying and An Xiang could not catch up to him at all.

Yun Ruoleng still didn't know that danger was slowly approaching them. At this moment, the entire Ci Ning Palace was filled with laughter, although some people were pretending to laugh, they had no choice but to laugh out loud in order to cooperate with the empress dowager.

”Little girl, you have such a clever heart. It's really his fortune to be married to you.” The empress dowager's impression of Yun Ruoleng increased, and she started to dislike the Third Princess even more.

”Imperial Mother is too kind.” Yun Ruoleng unenthusiastically swept a glance at the Third Princess who was seated below him. ”Compared to the Third Wife, Leng Er still has a lot of things to learn!”

”Seventh Sister-in-Law is too modest.” Zhang Qinyue hated Yun Ruoleng to the core, every time she spoke of him, he would drag this matter onto her. If he did not hit the smiling person, Yun Ruoleng would not say anything else.

Yun Ruoleng was really against Zhang Qinyue, she knew who the empress dowager disliked the most, the more the empress dowager disliked Zhang Qinyue, the more they liked her, and the more they loved Yun Ruoleng for his magnanimity.

All of a sudden, a woman who was sitting down fainted in her seat …
