Hearing this, Yin'er frowned deeply. He had never liked this thing since he was a child, but now his wife still wanted him to drink it even though he said he didn't want to eat it.
His deep eyes raised, flashing with impatience, "Take it away."
Seeing that Yinlang looked unhappy, Dong E hurriedly asked the maid behind her to take the pigeon soup away.
"Master, I didn't know you didn't like this thing. Please forgive me this time because I have good intentions," Dong E apologized in a soft voice. Her already beautiful face became even more charming because of her voice.
Yinzhen frowned and nodded. Dong E was his legitimate wife, and he gave her the face of being his legitimate wife.
Seeing that Yinzhen did not make things difficult for her about the pigeon soup incident, Dong E became bolder. She was his legitimate wife, and even if she made a mistake, he would not do anything to her.
"Master, I heard that you have taken a fancy to a palace maid named Jiang Ranli. If you like her, why don't you bring that girl into your house? I have already asked someone to prepare a place for her to live."
After hearing Dong E talk about Jiang Ranli, Yin'er's brows, which had just relaxed a little, furrowed again, and a dangerous look flashed in his eyes.
"Did you investigate her?"
Although Yin'er's voice just now was emotionless, it was also calm. But this time, his voice was full of coldness, like the cold wind in winter, which made people shudder.
Dong E's heart trembled. In her impression, even when her maternal brother got into trouble last time, Yinzhen had never treated her so coldly.
"No, I just heard that you like that girl very much, so I want to let her into the mansion so that she can serve you," Dong E explained with pale red lips.
Yinzhen looked at her for a long time, and his cold gaze made Dong E tremble all over.
"There's no need for you to dictate my business, get out."
Walk out of the study.
Dong E's legs suddenly went limp. If her maid hadn't supported her in time, she would have fallen to the ground.
"Fujin, are you okay?" the maid asked anxiously.
Dong E didn't say anything, biting her lower lip with her pearly teeth, recalling Yin'er's expression just now in her mind. After a while, she said, "Is Hongmei back?"
"In reply to Madam Fu, Sister Hongmei hasn't come back yet," the maid replied.
Supported by her maid, Dong E returned to her courtyard and sat in the hall waiting for Hongmei's return. All she could think about was what had just happened in the study.
Although Jiu Ye has had countless women over the years, he has never cared so much about any woman. Who is that palace maid named Jiang Ranli!
Dong E clenched her hands tightly, not even noticing that her nails were digging into her flesh.
Previously, the guards she sent to the frontier to deliver a letter to Yinzhen discovered the existence of Jiang Ranli. Since then, she has been asking people in the palace to inquire about Jiang Ranli's news, but to no avail.
Even if the palace maids were of a lower rank, there should be records in the palace. Jiang Ranli was a palace maid, but she was the one who accompanied the emperor on his tour outside the Great Wall. How come there is no news about her at all?
Dong E frowned, her heart filled with anger.
I have been married to Jiu Ye for so many years, running his household, managing all those gorgeous women for him, and even raising children born to other women for him. Why can't I get Jiu Ye's attention like that? Why!
Just when Dong E was raging with anger and unable to suppress it, Hongmei walked in from outside.
"Good luck to the lady in law."
