She wasn't a dog who would wag her tail just because someone smiled at her.
How revolting!
Qin Xiyue watched Lu Zhixue avert her gaze and frowned slightly. 'I didn't expect her to have such a temper, and I certainly didn't think she'd be sitting and talking with Song Yunzhao today. This is more difficult than I anticipated.'
"Consort Zhuang has arrived! Lady Wanfei has arrived! Lady Lu has arrived!"
As the three concubines arrived, everyone rose to greet them.
Princess Consort Zhuang smiled and said, "Sisters, there's no need for such ceremony. Please, be seated."
Song Yunzhao rose and sat again, noticing that An Fangyi had also immediately taken her seat.
"Oh, who arranged these flowers?" Princess Consort Zhuang asked with a smile after sitting down.
Qin Xiyue rose to reply, "In response to Your Grace, it was an idea that Chen Guoji came up with. The rest of us thought flower arranging sounded like an interesting activity, so we joined in as well."
