Yu Niaoniao really did not know the other party and did not know why she was looking for trouble.
Her question was completely sincere.
However, in that Madamâs ears, it became a mockery.
Her face turned livid.
âGood, very good!â
With that, she flicked her sleeve angrily and left.
Yu Niaoniao was left standing there at a loss.
Who was this person?
A young eunuch behind them said at the right time.
âThatâs Mrs. Yang. Yang Xianrong is her daughter.â
Hearing the name Yang Xianrong, Yu Niaoniao immediately understood what was going on.
Back then, because of the fight between Yang Xianrong and Yu Pingping, Yang Xianrong was punished and grounded. Her father was even reprimanded by the emperor.
Almost two years had passed since this incident and Yu Niaoniao had almost forgotten about this small matter.
However, from Mrs. Yangâs attitude, it was obvious that she was still brooding over the matter.
Yu Niaoniao casually took out a piece of silver and handed it to the young eunuch.
âThank you for your advice.â
The young eunuch hurriedly refused. âNot really. Young Master Wei specially instructed me to take care of you more.â
Yu Niaoniao was surprised. Was Wei Liao was actually so considerate? The sun had really risen from the west!
The group arrived at the Biquan Palace.
Empress Dowager Deng and Empress Wen were dressed very formally today. The two of them sat at the head of the table and accepted the kneeling of the women.
After they stood up, Empress Dowager Deng realized that Yu Niaoniao had a veil on her face and could not help but ask.
âPrincess Consort Lang, why are you still covering your face?â
In the crowd, Mrs. Yang sneered secretly. She actually dared to wear a veil when she saw the Empress Dowager and Empress. She clearly did not take the Empress Dowager and Empress seriously. The Princess Consort of Lang County would be punished!
The others also looked at Yu Niaoniao.
Most of them were waiting to watch a good show.
After all, Duke Langâs reputation was really bad. He had many enemies in the court, and no one hoped for him to be well.
Yu Niaoniao explained calmly.
âYour Highness, I was injured in Liangzhou and have a scar on my face. I was afraid of scaring you and the Empress, so I entered the palace with a veil.â
Empress Dowager Deng frowned slightly. âHow did this happen? Appearance is very important to women. Iâll get the imperial physician to take a look at you later.â
Yu Niaoniao said, âThank you for your kindness, Empress Dowager. Iâm using medication. I believe the scar will be removed soon. Thereâs no need to trouble the imperial physician to make another trip for me.â
Mrs. Yang questioned, âThe Princess Consort said that she has a scar on her face, but we didnât see it with our own eyes. We still donât know if this matter is true.â
She deliberately wanted to embarrass Yu Niaoniao.
If Yu Niaoniao was really disfigured and took off her veil in public, it would be equivalent to exposing her ugly appearance to everyone. She would definitely lose all her face.
However, if Yu Niaoniao was not disfigured, she would have lied to Empress Dowager Deng. The consequences would be even worse.
Empress Dowager Deng was not an aggressive person.
She said warmly, âI believe the County Princess wonât joke about such a thing.
Donât say anything else.â
However, Yu Niaoniao said, âSince the Empress Dowager trusts me so much, I naturally canât make things difficult for you. Iâll take off my veil now to prove my innocence, lest others spread rumors about this.â
With that, she raised her hand and took off the veil on her face.
Before leaving, Chun Feng specially applied more cosmetics to Yu Niaoniaoâs face and helped her hide most of the scars on her face. However, after leaving, Yu Niaoniao quietly wiped the cosmetics off her face.
At this moment, the scar on her face was clearly visible to everyone.
The women present were stunned.
Even Empress Wen was a little shocked. She did not expect the scar on Yu
Niaoniaoâs face to be so obvious. If this scar could not be removed, how could
yu Niaomao tace otners In tne tutureg
The others had similar thoughts.
As the person involved, Yu Niaoniao was very calm. She put the veil back on and looked at Empress Dowager Deng on the high seat.
Empress Dowager Dengâs face was pale as if she had been violently frightened. She was stunned.
The nanny beside her sensed Empress Dowager Dengâs abnormality and hurriedly asked.
âYour Highness, whatâs wrong? Are you feeling unwell?â
Empress Dowager Deng did not answer, her eyes still fixed on Yu Niaoniao.
Mrs. Yang immediately scolded Yu Niaoniao.
âPrincess Consort Lang, look at what youâve done. If anything happens to the Empress Dowager because of you, you wonât be able to absolve yourself of the blame even if you die ten thousand times!â
Empress Wen frowned and said, âAlright, donât make a huge fuss here. Hurry up and call the imperial physician.â
Mrs. Yang could only shut her mouth resentfully and not dare to say anything else.
Empress Wen helped Empress Dowager Deng to the inner room to rest while the others waited outside.
Without the Empress and the Empress Dowager holding the fort, the women gathered in groups and discussed softly. Only Yu Niaoniao was excluded.
She sat alone in the corner and gently turned the jade bracelet on her wrist. Her ears were filled with the whispers of the women.
âDid you see that? The face of the Princess Consort of Lang is so scary.â
âI didnât expect her to really be disfigured. This is retribution. Who asked Duke
Lang to harm so many people?!â
âDidnât she just say that the scar could be removed?â
âThatâs just a lie she used to preserve her last bit of dignity. How can such a serious scar recover?!â
âWhatâs the difference between her current appearance and a hag? Sheâs a match made in heaven with that living King of Hell, Duke Lang.â
âThatâs right, thatâs right. These two are too compatible!â
Mrs. Yang looked at Yu Niaoniao gloatingly. Seeing her sitting alone in the corner in a daze, she felt the pleasure of successfully taking revenge.
However, in fact, Yu Niaoniao did not care about the discussions of others.
Her mind was filled with thoughts about Empress Dowager Deng.
When she raised her hand to take off the veil just now, she deliberately let her sleeve slide down, revealing the jade bracelet hanging on her wrist.
Empress Dowager Deng and Empress Wen, who were sitting opposite, could definitely see it clearly.
Everyone thought that Empress Dowager Deng was frightened by the scar on her face. Only Yu Niaoniao knew that Empress Dowager Deng was frightened by the jade bracelet on her hand.
At that time, other than shock, there was also fear and uneasiness in Empress Dowager Dengâs gaze.
From this reaction, it could be seen that Empress Dowager Deng definitely knew this jade bracelet.
The imperial physician quickly rushed over.
He checked Empress Dowager Dengâs body and said that her emotions were fluctuating too much. There was no big problem. He asked her to drink a cup of calming tea and rest for a while before running away.
Seeing that it was about time, Empress Wen helped Empress Dowager Deng out and prepared to leave Biquan Palace.
The women retreated to the sides and made way for the Empress Dowager and Empress to go first.

Yu Niaoniao raised her head slightly. âWhat can I do for you, Empress
Dowager?â
Empress Dowager Deng said, âAfter the conferment of the Crown Prince is over, come to the Biquan Palace. I have something to ask you.â
Yu Niaoniao agreed respectfully. âYes..â
