Nanny Qiao glanced around, calmed herself, and went back to her room.

Meanwhile, in the west side room, Jin's wet nurse was talking to Wen's mother.

"Wen Niang, if you treat Nanny Qiao like this, won't she hate you?"

Jin, the wet nurse, didn't understand why Wen Niang always treated Qiao, the wet nurse, with such a condescending attitude and never spoke politely to her, even though Wen Niang used to be quite gentle and kind.

However, after what happened last time, Jin the wet nurse became more cautious. Although she had doubts, she never questioned Wen Niang. But today she couldn't help but ask.

Wen Niang patted the little princess on the back and said, "It's precisely because she harbors resentment that things will be easier for her to do later."

After she finished speaking, she added another sentence without waiting for Jin Nai Niang to understand.

“That wet nurse Qiao has ill intentions; don’t listen to her attempts to sow discord.”

Jin, the wet nurse, smiled憨憨地: "I know, I'll only listen to you, Wen Niang."

Wen Niang corrected her: "No, you should listen to the Empress."

"Yes, I know! Wen Niang wouldn't hurt me."

Jin, the wet nurse, moved closer to Wen Niang and obediently squatted down, her expression as innocent as that of a little girl.

Actually, Jin's wet nurse wasn't very old, only in her early twenties.

Wenniang treated her like a younger sister.

The two were talking quietly inside the room, unaware of a shadow flashing past the window.

After the two most powerful masters left the palace, the palace appeared calm on the surface, but in reality, people's hearts were restless.

And it wasn't just some people from Changqing Palace who had designs on it.

Shortly after the large group of people left the palace, the eldest princess, who had been staying in her room wallowing in self-pity, suddenly walked out of Qifeng Pavilion.

She only brought one personal maid with her, and just as she stepped out of the gate, she ran into the second princess from next door.

Both of them were somewhat surprised when they came out and when they came in.

The second princess was the first to come to her senses and took the initiative to greet the eldest princess.

"Big sister, where are we going?"

The eldest princess instinctively shrank back, but then straightened her back.

"I'm going to visit my mother. What about you, Second Sister?"

The second princess smiled and said, "I just came back from my mother's place! My mother took me to visit Consort Shen, and Consort Shen looks much better. Speaking of which, my fourth sister has been taking care of her there, serving her meals and medicine. They look just like a real mother and daughter."

After the second princess finished speaking, she suddenly exclaimed "Oh!" and covered her mouth apologetically.

"I misspoke, please don't take it to heart, elder sister! You are the biological daughter of Consort Shen, and in her heart, you and Fourth Sister are definitely different."

The eldest princess's expression was somewhat stiff, a flash of resentment in her eyes. She gripped her handkerchief and replied curtly.

"Thank you for your trouble, Second Sister."

The second princess bowed slightly and returned to her courtyard with her maid.

The eldest princess stood there, her anger evident on her face, making her delicate features appear somewhat ferocious.

"I knew it... My mother says she cares about me, but she doesn't really care about me at all... She just wants a tool to compete for favor... It doesn't matter if I'm her biological child or not!"

The handkerchief in her hand was almost torn to shreds.

Her personal maid looked at her with concern and advised, "Princess, don't overthink it. Of course, Her Majesty cares about you the most! She carried you for ten months and gave birth to you, and raised you with great difficulty. How could she treat you as a tool?"

But the eldest princess was no longer listening.
