The fourth princess has a gentle and dignified appearance. Although she is not a great beauty, she is also a pretty lady. Her appearance is much more attractive than the plain-looking fifth princess.
She walked into the palace as naturally as if she were entering her own home. She took a few casual glances and found that the colors in the palace seemed to be much lighter than last time.
Seeing that the Fifth Princess did not confront her as she did in the past, but instead performed a textbook-like greeting, she returned the greeting with a complicated expression.
The Fifth Princess remained silent. Seeing the crude dishes on the table, which she had never seen before, the Fourth Princess could not help but sneer, "It's only been a few days, and you've fallen so far. It seems I really overestimated you in the past."
"Qu You, you really disappoint me."
If the emperor hadn't said anything, she would still be the fifth princess. If the palace servants were disobedient, she could just beat them up. Why would she let herself live in such a miserable state?
The fourth princess thought with regret.
Shui Su was so angry at the Fourth Princess's arrogant attitude that her teeth were itching. If it weren't for the difference in status, she really wanted to go up and fight with the Fourth Princess.
"Really? I'm so sorry. I'll probably be moving out of this palace soon, and you don't have to worry about me anymore." The fifth princess said lightly.
“…You’re so useless.”
The Fifth Princess's indifferent and lifeless look was very different from before. The Fourth Princess felt melancholy for a moment and lost interest in talking.
With a wave of his hand, the first-class palace maid behind him ran out, and soon several eunuchs came in with food boxes, removed the simple food on the table, and took out the hot and delicious food from the food boxes.
The Fifth Princess and Shui Su were stunned.
Before the Fourth Princess left with her palace maids, she said to the Fifth Princess indifferently:
"If you don't work hard, how can I know that you will move out of Lanyue Palace? The feelings that the emperor has had for you over the years are not fake."
The Fourth Princess left the Lanyue Palace. Shui Su came back to her senses with difficulty and looked at the table at a loss. She couldn't understand why the Fourth Princess would send such a table of food to the Lanyue Palace.
"Princess, these dishes...could the Fourth Princess have poisoned them?"
Over the years, the Fourth Princess has always been at odds with the Fifth Princess. Shui Su really doesn't believe that the Fourth Princess has any good intentions.
The Fifth Princess was silent for a moment, then picked up her chopsticks and said, "It would be nice to have a good meal before I die."
These words frightened Shui Su so much that she quickly stopped her from picking up the food: "Princess, why don't we just not eat? How about this servant eat first, and when you're sure the food is okay, Princess can eat later?"
"No."
The fifth princess waved Shui Su's hand away and took a bite of the dish she liked to eat in the past. Then she ate bite after bite under Shui Su's worried and hesitant gaze.
He didn't put down his chopsticks until his stomach couldn't hold any more food.
"I haven't touched many of the dishes on the table. Shuisu, take them down and share them with Madam Qian and Madam Dong. Fourth Sister isn't someone who would poison me, so you can eat without worry."
The fifth princess drank a cup of tea and read a storybook by herself. Shui Su, who thought she knew her best, couldn't understand what she was thinking.
