She rolled her eyes.
Suddenly, Empress Zhong asked, "That Princess Yaoguang will also be attending tonight's banquet, right?"
The palace maid was stunned for a moment before nodding. "Yes, you were the one who invited her."
Empress Zhong pursed her red lips and said with a faint smile, "Very good. I've never officially met this Princess Yaoguang before.
"If she comes tonight, prepare a cup of wine and get her to come and pay her respects to me."
Although the palace maid was puzzled, she still lowered her head and replied, "Yes.
"However, Your Majesty, this servant heard that Princess Yaoguang is very smart."
The palace maid meant that if the Empress wanted to give Gu Nuo'er an opening gambit…
Things probably wouldn't go smoothly.
However, Empress Zhong naturally didn't have such plans.
She smiled brightly, her eyes flickering with viciousness.
"I just want to get to know her, so you must treat her respectfully."
