"What do you mean by odd ?"
"You see my lady… This Concubine heard that this Si Nan Yan was Xia Yunting's close friend. Previously, she served as a Female Attendant, afterwards, she did not register as a slave. After that, when Xia Yunting entered the Harem she became close to His Majesty by being a Female Officer. "
“Moreover, this Concubine also heard that this Si Nan Yan had served His Majesty on night duty before he was enthroned and it stirred up quite a bit of trouble."
“Ultimately, this girl does not have a birth record but this Concubine feels that with the history of this one, there is no guarantee that she has a clean record !"
Wu Wan's eyes were full of hostility.
“In conclusion, these two sluts are treacherous and want to get close to His Majesty to rise right ?”
Gao Yu Rong softly remarked.
“If this is true then it is truly problematic.”
“My Lady, this Concubine heard this time, that Si Nan Yan has lost the High Advisor Ministry's key which made a big commotion in the Palace. As it was related to the Imperial Jade Seal, she also offended Jing Wang in the process. Yet, His Majesty had only beaten her with twenty strokes of plank. In addition, he granted her permission to stay at the Shou An Palace to recuperate.”
“I am afraid that His Majesty is also concern about her.”
Wu Wan was so angry that she only sneered instead of being outraged.
"Before, many of us have been wary of that slut, Qin Ruolan. But that bitch was being discreet and did not make much noise either. Now that her influence has already gone down, there are now two more foxes that have come."
She squeezed hard her fist and cold-heartedly uttered.
“Then, let's get rid of these sluts !”
Gao Yu Rong frowned.
"My Lady, if those two are really treacherous, then it is not a good thing to try to clean up them."
Wu Wan thought about it for a moment before saying.
“People have weaknesses. Find a man to investigate it for me !"
——–
At this time, Nan Yan was finally getting out of the Chun Xi Palace as she started to feel moldy.
Formerly, she was by Zhu Feng's side every day and was busy working nonstop, going to sleep very late to sleep in the evening and repeatedly complaining. In spite of being happy to finally have some leisure days, she still felt uncomfortable.
She truly felt useless!
With this kind of thoughts, she could not help but knock her head.
“Whose fault is it, that she is like this !"
Taking advantage of the cloudy morning, she went out for a stroll as the sun was not too strong. On her way, she took time to drop by at High Ministry Advisor Office to cast a glance. After all, as she had not come these days, so she did not know if Zhu Feng had big decrees to stamp for.
When she approached the Wu Ying Palace, she could catch from afar the sight of the tall figure coming nearer.
It was Jian Ruocheng.
He had changed his clothes into Official robes. Compared to the time, when she saw him at Jian’s Household, the robes he wore made him appear fresh and elegant. He was currently looked even more dignified and a little handsome.
Taking notice of Nan Yan's presence, he immediately came to greet her.
“Miss Nan Yan.”
Nan Yan was very surprised to see him.
“Second Young Master ?”
As the two of them greeted each other, Jian Ruocheng smiled and said.
“I just remembered that I should now call you Female Officer Si.”
Nan Yan smiled as she looked at his Official's robe that seemed to be similar to He Yi’s Official robes, then, she smirked.
“Then should I call you Right Assistant Minister?”
Jian Ruocheng lowered his head and looked at his attire, laughing.
“Nothing can be hidden to the eyes of Female Officer Si.”
He had recently accepted the nomination as the Right Assistant Palace Secretary.
Then Nan Yan said to him.
“Doing the first admission into the official career. Yet, you already made a great achievement by becoming the Right Assistant Officer, it is worthy of celebration.”
Jian Ruocheng replied.
“I am not that great. It was thanks to His Highness who made an exception and promoted me to this post.”
“Oh… “
Nan Yan was stunned.
Before, when Zhu Feng came to the Jian’s Household for those previous matters, he almost destroyed the Ten Clans in his fury. She did not expect that he would make an exception and promoted Jian Ruocheng as the Right Assistant Palace Minister.
He is truly broad-minded.
However, why does he always bother with trifling matters?Why is he never willing to let off me this easily?
