Chapter 2493 Preparing to Marry Jun Linyuan
“Your Majesty, this Snowy Cream was made by my master, and is the same cream that she uses every day. My master said that Your Majesty and her were best friends when you were young. Although the two of you haven’t met each other for many years, she still cares about Your Majesty.”
Zuo Qingluan studied the empress dowager as she spoke.
She didn’t expect that the old lady would like her right away. As long as the empress dowager liked her better than before, she would achieve results.
The empress dowager looked pleased when she heard that the master of Firmament Palace still cared about her.
And the Snowy Cream was a very considerate gift.
Seeing that Zuo Qingluan wasn’t as arrogant as she had expected, the empress dowager wasn’t as indifferent as before.
“Take a seat,” said the empress dowager.
Despite the change in her attitude, the empress dowager wasn’t that easily impressed. It would take more than a few gifts to melt her heart.
“Wait. Is Zuo Qingluan here?” Jun Wuxia was there as well, and was surprised to see Zuo Qingluan.
Zuo Qingluan nodded at her. “That’s the deluxe version of the Snowy Cream. Zuo Qingluan, did you give it to Grandma?” Jun Wuxia asked curiously.
Zuo Qingluan nodded. She didn’t like Jun Wuxia because the princess was too proud for her liking. While other people called her Miss Qingluan, Jun Wuxia kept addressing her by her full name.
Jun Wuxia stared at Zuo Qingluan. “Hey, why isn’t there something for me?” “Wuxia!” Empress Dugu chided her.
Jun Wuxia snorted. “I see. She’s sucking up to Grandma.”
Zuo Qingluan bit her lower lip and disliked Jun Wuxia even more.
The empress dowager looked from Zuo Qingluan to Jun Wuxia. She didn’t say anything, but there was a pointed look in her eyes.
Zuo Qingluan had always considered herself the respectable sacred lady of Firmament Palace. Now, however, a mere princess was talking to her that way. Zuo Qingluan was furious.
However…
She couldn’t lose her temper now.
To marry Jun Linyuan, she had to win these women’s hearts first.
At that thought, she took a deep breath and fought back her rage. She then smiled at Jun Wuxia.
“I still have a bottle in Firmament Pavilion. I thought I would keep it for Her Majesty for future use. Would you like me to fetch it for you?” she asked Jun Wuxia.
Jun Wuxia snorted. “If you don’t want to give it to me, just say so. Are you trying to say that I’m taking Her Majesty’s face cream? Zuo Qingluan, you’re such a schemer!”
Zuo Qingluan glared at Jun Wuxia and took a deep breath. She didn’t know what to do with this rude princess.
She couldn’t control her temper for much longer.
Empress Dugu wanted to cover her daughter’s mouth and stop her from attacking one of their own.
She smiled awkwardly and said, “The two of you are cousins. Why are you quarreling? Wuxia, didn’t you say that Qingluan is your best friend? You went to her birthday party just the other day.”
