Chapter 1940: What Do You Want This Empress to Do?

Ning Shu picked up the tea and took a sip. She had entered this world a little late. If she had been a little earlier, she could have directly dealt with Selected Lady Zhou while she was still in the Cold Palace. She could have killed the issue in the cradle.

However, Zhao Xu now already had a relationship with Zhou Ningning. Zhao Xu had already noticed Zhou Ningning.

Zhou Ningning was basically a walking aphrodisiac. As soon as you had a taste of her, you were addicted.

“Your Majesty…” When Consort Zhuang saw that Ning Shu was spacing out, she couldn’t help but say, “Your Majesty, you are the master of the inner palace. You should make sure that the rules are followed.”

“All right, you must be thirsty from talking so much by now. Head back, have some tea, and calm down.” Ning Shu set down the teacup and said calmly, “As of now, Selected Lady Zhou had already attended to the emperor.”

“But Your Majesty, she had broken the rules.” Consort Zhuang couldn’t accept it. “She had seduced the emperor.”

Ning Shu scoffed. “His Majesty has the final say on the rules. What do you want this empress to do? Have Selected Lady Zhou be beaten up?”

“Your Majesty, that’s not what this consort means. This consort just can’t take how much disrespect she is showing for you, how rude she is being towards all the sisters in this inner palace.” Consort Zhuang wrung her handkerchief.

“Enough, let’s leave this at here. You should head back as well. The emperor dislikes not seeing the harem in harmony.” Ning Shu waved dismissively. “If you act in such a rush to target Selected Lady Zhou, the emperor will be displeased.”

Consort Zhuang’s facial color immediately changed and she stood up to curtsy towards Ning Shu. “This consort is not trying to deliberately target Selected Lady Zhou. The fact of the matter is, Selected Lady Zhou truly doesn’t understand the rules.”

“She had been sent to the Cold Palace as soon as she entered the palace. If she told His Majesty that she hadn’t had a chance to learn the rules because she was in the Cold Palace, and at that time, His Majesty asked how she ended up in the Cold Palace?” Ning Shu lifted her brows as she looked towards Consort Zhuang. Consort Zhuang was the reason why Selected Lady Zhou had ended up in the Cold Palace.

It was fine before since Zhao Xu had never seen Selected Lady Zhou before since the emperor wouldn’t bother himself with a mere selected lady. However, the current situation was different. He quite liked this new woman of his.

If Consort Zhuang insisted on targeting Selected Lady Zhou, she would definitely meet an unfortunate end.

With how impatient Consort Zhuang was, if it weren’t for the fact that her grandfather was a general, there was no way she could have survived this long in the harem.

The reason why Consort Zhuang was still doing well in the inner palace was because Zhao Xu was looking out for her.

When Consort Zhuang heard what Ning Shu said, she curtsied and said, “This consort understands. Then this consort will leave now.”

After Consort Zhuang left, Ning Shu did some neck rolls. Her hair had been piled up high above her head and was filled with hair accessories, it was seriously heavy.

“Qiu Ling, you can start preparing breakfast.” Her stomach felt really empty.

Earlier, a huge wave of concubines had come over to give her their morning greetings, then Consort Zhuang stayed behind to complain. So at this point, she was starving.

Qiu Ling hastily had palace maids bring the food to the table.

The empress’s breakfast was rather sumptuous. The entire table was filled with dishes. Although Ning Shu was eating elegantly, she was stuffing her mouth with food nonstop.

A palace maid walked in and curtsied towards Ning Shu before saying, “Reporting, Your Majesty, Selected Lady Zhou is still in the Palace of Flourishing Happiness.”

The Palace of Flourishing Happiness was where the emperor slept. That meant that Zhou Ningning was still in his bedroom.

Ning Shu didn’t say anything, so Qiu Ling had the maid leave.

“Your Majesty, although Selected Lady Zhou had attended to the emperor, she didn’t come to give you her greetings.” Qiu Ling said to Ning Shu, “According to the rules, all the concubines who have attended to the emperor must come to give their morning greetings to the empress.”

Ning Shu took a bite of the sesame roll as she said, “Perhaps Selected Lady Zhou doesn’t have any suitable clothes and cannot come to give her morning greetings. Qiu Ling, have the clothing department make an outfit for Selected Lady Zhou and send it to the Palace of Flourishing Happiness. Make it a personal trip.”

“Understood.” Qiu Ling curtsied and headed off.
