Chapter 125 This Vicious Bai Ruo 1 ” (2/2)
Without saying anything at all here, she silently disappeared into the night with a stream of vile thoughts coming out from her soul.
……
Inside the palace, Ning Dai (queen) was no longer her noble self. Sitting on that poorly ordained wooden chair, only the moonlight gave way to her presence here.
“Your Highness.” The old granny walks up to the woman, her voice distressed based on that tone: “You haven’t eaten all day, please have something first.”
Glancing at the plain porridge placed before her, Ning Dai could only raise a bitter smile in the face of this, “I have no appetite.”
She’s always been pampered all her life so how can she partake in such low quality porridge?
“But……”
“Granny,” biting her lip. “The king wouldn’t just ignore me, here would he? I’m sure it’s only temporary. Once his temper is settled, I’m sure we will be summoned back out.”
Making a soft sigh, the old granny weakly replied: “Highness… This time we’ve really made the wrong move here. Crown Princess, she used us for her own scheme.”
Going stiff in the body, Ning Dai’s usual dignified face was pale as her hands clenched into a tight ball. “Granny, what do you mean by that?”
“I’ve went outside earlier to inquire around. The Bai family chief had out sought His Highness the Crown Prince before, he wanted make his youngest daughter Bai Zhi into the Sovereign Princess. However, they were firmly rejected, hence the reason why Bai Ruo came to you.” The old granny’s express went darker at this part, “They wanted to use you to achieve their goal and now we are suffering as a result.”
At the beginning Nangong Yi had in fact thought about making Bai Zhi enter the Cang Manor, but ever since that incident outside the restaurant where the girl ruined her own image, the idea was quickly squashed. Therefore, the prince never could’ve imagined why his own mother would make such a foolish decision that day.
