Xia Ruqing pondered for a moment. Since there's nothing else to do, I might as well go and have a look, she thought.
It wasn't exactly a friendship; at most... they weren't enemies.
Honored Lady Lan was pleased when she saw her nod in agreement.
As they chatted, they walked towards Yaoyue Palace.
「Yaoyue Palace」
Inevitably, they ran into Consort Yun.
Surprisingly, Consort Yun didn't make things difficult for her; instead, she greeted her generously with a smile.
"What kind of wind has blown Lady Xia my way today?"
"Consort Yun..." Xia Ruqing lowered her eyes and stepped forward to pay respects.
She thought to herself, This will be the only time; there won't be a next.
"All right, rise. I am off to pay a visit to the Noble Consort. Do as you wish..."
With that, she left.
Xia Ruqing was a bit stunned.
This isn't right. This is too out of the ordinary. Whenever I encounter Consort Yun, isn't it always bad luck... Why is this time different?
