The metaphysics expert transmigrates one day and surprisingly becomes the real young miss who is not doted on by her father or loved by her mother.
How can she indulge their bad habits?
Yun Wanwan's implication was that she didn't want to see Liu Xueyan right now, but Liu Xueyan seemed to have no eyesight and walked directly in front of Yun Wanwan and just stood there looking at her.
Yun Wanwan and her exchanged a long glance before realizing that Liu Xueyan wanted her to pay her respects. So, Yun Wanwan casually bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
Liu Xueyan corrected Yun Wanwan, "It's the Empress Dowager."
Yun Wanwan looked at Liu Xueyan, who looked like a smug villain, and sneered inwardly. So, she was waiting for her here. Yun Wanwan smiled and bowed to Liu Xueyan again, "Greetings, Her Majesty."
Liu Xueyan successfully heard the word "Queen" from Yun Wanwan's mouth, and a smile appeared on her face. She also "mercifully" let Yun Wanwan go.
Yun Wanwan felt that she had greeted Liu Xueyan and bowed as she had intended. There was no reason for her to bother her anymore, right? She was about to say goodbye. Anyway, whoever wanted to wander around the Imperial Gardens could do so. She wasn't in the mood to continue.
"Empress..."
Yun Wanwan had barely begun to speak when Liu Xueyan, who was standing before her, said, "I heard that Miss Yun slept in the palace yesterday, right?"
Yun Wanwan almost rolled her eyes in front of Liu Xueyan. She already knew everything but was still asking in a hypocritical manner. She must have some tricks up her sleeve.
"Yes, His Highness said that he had to prepare for the wedding these days and he couldn't bear to let me run around, so he just found an empty palace in the palace for me to live in." Yun Wanwan picked out some of the details and didn't tell Liu Xueyan that the palace was a gift from Rong Chengxuan.
It’s not that Yun Wanwan didn’t want to say it. Who doesn’t want to show off the things their partner gave them in front of others? But if Yun Wanwan really said it now, it would give people a very deliberate feeling, which would be very low. Yun Wanwan would not do anything to tarnish her image in front of Liu Xueyan.
Liu Xueyan sneered and spoke in a sarcastic tone, "Oh, I just found an empty palace to live in."
After hearing Yun Wanwan say this, Liu Xueyan felt relieved. Rong Chengxuan was not as good to Yun Wanwan as Yun Yaoyao said.
She had heard from Jime that he had gifted Rong Chengxuan several palaces in the palace. She had originally thought Rong Chengxuan would let Yun Wanwan pick one of these palaces that she liked. Unexpectedly, he simply picked a palace at random and sent Yun Wanwan away.
Yun Wanwan was treated so sarcastically by Liu Xueyan for no reason, and Qingyao couldn't swallow this. Just as he was about to say something in defense of Yun Wanwan, Yun Wanwan stopped him with her hand.
Yun Wanwan clearly didn't want to get entangled with Liu Xueyan any further. The moment she saw her yesterday, she'd thought her pride was blinding. Ultimately, she'd been acting well the other day, but now that Jimer had named her Queen, her true colors were revealed. No wonder she could chat with Yun Yaoyao; it turned out that people of the same ilk were like-minded.
When Liu Xueyan saw the angry look on Qingyao's face, she thought that she had pointed out the fact that Rong Chengxuan didn't like Yun Wanwan, so she became angry and embarrassed, so she became more and more reckless in her words.
"Miss Yun, if you're not comfortable living in the palace, please come live in mine. His Majesty just gifted me the largest palace in the palace, the Weiyang Palace, yesterday. It's so huge, and I get so lonely when His Majesty isn't here. Now your sister Yaoyao is living there too, so you two sisters can have a good chat and sort out any misunderstandings."
"Ms. Yun, you and Yaoyao are sisters after all. There's no such thing as overnight hatred between sisters. Ultimately, we still have to support each other in the future. It's better to talk about some misunderstandings as soon as possible."
After hearing Yun Wanwan call her "Empress," Liu Xueyan took on the airs of a queen in front of Yun Wanwan. She said she wanted Yun Wanwan to have a good chat with Yun Yaoyao to clear up the previous misunderstanding, but in reality, Liu Xueyan just wanted Yun Wanwan to apologize to Yun Yaoyao.
After returning home yesterday, Yun Yaoyao cried in front of her for a long time, talking about how Yun Wanwan always bullied her. If she hadn't had Gu Pingge and General Yun to protect her, she would have been played to death by Yun Wanwan in the Yun Mansion long ago.
She also explained that the reason she had been outside the city with the villagers the day before was because she had sought help from Yun Wanwan to no avail, and had been thrown into that village by Yun Wanwan's orders. Fortunately, she had met Liu Xueyan; otherwise, without her maids or guards, she might have been left there by Yun Wanwan in an unfamiliar place, and who knows what might have happened.
Yun Yaoyao was so engrossed in her acting that she didn't care about her tears at all. In the end, she cried with tears and snot, her heart breaking, as if Yun Wanwan was really as unforgivable as she said.
Liu Xueyan was fascinated by the story, and at the end, she even made a promise to Yun Yaoyao. She said that she would definitely ask Yun Wanwan to come and apologize to her in person. Yun Yaoyao cried even harder when she heard this, saying that apart from Gu Pingge and General Yun, no one else had ever cared about her so much.
Seeing this, Liu Xueyan became even more determined to have Yun Wanwan personally apologize to Yun Yaoyao. She felt that if she used her status as queen to prove herself, Yun Wanwan would definitely do as she asked.
Little did she know that Liu Xueyan was being used as a pawn by Yun Yaoyao. Yun Wanwan now thought that Liu Xueyan was a fool who knew nothing and was bossing her around just based on Yun Yaoyao's one-sided words and a little reward from Ji Moyi.
Yun Wanwan still thought that Liu Xueyan was a fool and didn't want to argue with her, but Qingyao couldn't help it no matter what.
"What a coincidence, Your Majesty! Our young lady lives in Qingya Terrace. Your Majesty is in the palace now, so you must have heard of it, right?" Qingyao imitated Liu Xueyan's sarcastic tone, "This Qingya Terrace can't be compared with Weiyang Palace. Your Majesty said that Weiyang Palace is the largest palace in the palace, but Qingya Terrace is the largest palace in the world."
Qingyao's implication was that Liu Xueyan was just trying to be ridiculous. Qingya Terrace was the largest palace in the world, and Weiyang Palace was nothing compared to it, like a monkey meeting a tiger. They say that when there's no tiger in the mountains, the monkey claims to be king. Liu Xueyan was the monkey claiming to be king in front of Yun Wanwan, just as ridiculous as Yun Wanwan.
Qingyao admired the complex expression on Liu Xueyan's face, but that was nothing to her. She still had something to say to her. "If Her Majesty the Queen doesn't understand, I can explain it to Her Majesty. Qingya Terrace was built by the late emperor for his favorite princess. It took a lot of time and effort, unlike any other palace. It is warm in winter and cool in summer, very comfortable."
