For the following lunch, Yang Ruxin and Erni accompanied the Empress Dowager for a meal in the Kangshou Palace. The dishes were quite sumptuous. Initially, everything was calm, but midway through the meal, someone arrived. It was someone from Consort Jin, delivering the Emperor's decree, inviting Madam Ruyi to attend the banquet.
"Go ahead." The Empress Dowager waved her hand, "Just leave the three of them here." Then she suddenly realized something, "Are you not worried?"
"Hehe." Yang Ruxin chuckled, "With the Empress Dowager watching, what should I worry about?" Inwardly, she was cursing. The Crown Princess Consort didn't even bring her children in, yet she was made to bring hers. Wasn't this obviously to torment her? If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have come to the capital, or she could have had Gu Qingheng resign from his official post. From now on, they wouldn't serve the Imperial Family; they didn't lack money anyway.
