At this moment, Princess Consort Yi also returned to her senses and took her leave with a smile. Imperial Aunt, then we wont disturb your rest.

Li Yunrong still wanted to say something, but she felt her sleeve tighten.

Princess Consort Yi quietly tugged at Li Yunrongs sleeve. Her face didnt change at all. Her smile was gentle and reserved as she bowed again. Well take our leave.

She glanced sideways at Li Yunrong without batting an eyelid, warning her not to play any more tricks and to leave quickly.

Princess Consort Jing also saw Princess Consort Yis small actions, but she pretended not to see it. Prince Yi of the First Rank was the fifth brother of Kang w.a.n.g, and Princess Consort Yi was Li Yunrongs royal sister-in-law. It was most suitable for her to persuade her sister-in-law.

However, Li Yunrong still stood with a smile. She pretended not to have received Princess Consort Yis gaze and didnt understand Feng Yangs expulsion just now.

She smiled sweetly and said, Imperial Aunt, 1 specially brought some desserts I made myself. Theyre very easy to digest. 1 made it for everyone to try.

She raised her hand and made a gesture. Xia Lian walked over with a food box.

She took out a few plates of desserts from the food box and placed a few pastries on each plate in the shape of a plum blossom.

Feng Yang casually glanced at it and widened her eyes slightly. Her dark pupils couldnt help but light up at this moment.

Li Yunrong saw Feng Yangs expression, and the corners of her lips curled up. Her jade-like finger stretched out of her sleeve and pointed at the few exquisite pastries. Imperial Aunt, this is a cake.

I specially made a few flavors. One plate is the original flavor, one plate is strawberry flavor, one plate is green tea flavor, and the other plate has raisins.

The cake has a soft texture, so its easy to chew and digest.

What else Li Yunrong said after that couldnt reach Feng Yangs ears anymore.

A nostalgic expression appeared in Feng Yangs turbid eyes as she looked at the few plates of cake in a daze. Tears seemed to well up in her eyes.

The cake that had been cut into small pieces was fluffy and soft. The golden color was quite tempting. At first glance, it looked like a corn cake, but it was more delicate and soft. The pastry emitted a faint fragrance of milk that filled the air, lingering in everyones noses, tempting them.

Princess Consort Yi, Princess Consort Jing, and the others also looked over curiously. They felt that the cakes made by Li Yunrong were very fresh.

Li Yunrong picked up a plate of golden original-flavor cake with both hands and personally handed it to Feng Yang.

Imperial Aunt, do you want to give it a try? she said with a smile. Her gaze had been paying attention to Feng Yangs expression. It slowly moved down from her white hair and swept past her wrinkled forehead, the corners of her eyes, and her turbid eyes

Eh?

This was

Li Yunrongs gaze stopped on Feng Yangs right ear. Her eyebrows and eyelashes twitched slightly, and her pupils moved.

The skin behind Feng Yangs ears was different from the skin color on her cheek. Although it wasnt very obvious, there was indeed a dividing line.

Li Yunrong looked away imperceptibly. Her gaze moved down and landed on the back of Feng Yangs hand.

The back of her old, bark-like hand was covered in brown spots and wrinkles. Her neatly manicured nails were green and white, without any blood or vitality. It was like a pair of dead hands, the fingertips pale.

Li Yunrongs eyes flashed, and the smile on her face never changed.

She secretly heaved a sigh of relief and placed the plate of cake on the coffee table beside the bed as if nothing had happened. She immediately retreated to Princess Consort Yi and the others.

Imperial Aunt, remember to try my cakes. Li Yunrong bent her knee and bowed. Then Ill take my leave with my sisters-in-law.

Princess Consort Yi, Princess Consort Jing, and the others exchanged looks again and heaved a sigh of relief. If Li Yunrong didnt leave soon, they planned to leave first.

The few princess consorts took their leave again and retreated one after another, their footsteps filled with antic.i.p.ation.

After leaving the east side hall, Princess Consort Yi and the others walked even more briskly. As they walked out, they lowered their voices and spoke at once.

Ive been sitting in a carriage for most of the day and kneeling for so long. 1 should rest early tonight.

Fortunately, the sacrificial ceremony is only three days. Otherwise, 1 wouldnt be able to take it.

Yeah, after 30 years old, my body is getting worse and worse.

H 11

The few princess consorts chatted non-stop in front as they walked towards the door of the main hall.

Only Li Yunrong slowed down and landed at the back.

Behind her was a young eunuch. The eunuch smiled and stretched out his hand. Princess Consort Kang, this way.

His expression and movements were no different from directly chasing her away.

Li Yunrong turned a deaf ear and walked slowly. A faint smile appeared on her lips, as if she had suddenly thought of something. Little Eunuch Li, although the cake is easy to digest, it contains fat and sugar. Imperial Aunt shouldnt eat too much of it. Later, remember to tell Imperial Aunt for me.

Eunuch Li only agreed.

Li Yunrong looked back again and saw that the door fan behind the curtain was impatiently closed from the inside.

The moment the door closed, an anxious voice came from inside. Your Highness, blood

The door closed with a bang, and the voices behind couldnt be heard.

The vibration of the door closing made the curtain tremble continuously. A string of bead chains was broken by the door, and finger-sized crystal beads scattered all over the ground like water droplets.

Those beads rolled around on the smooth marble ground, making a mess.

Li Yunrong ignored it and quickened her pace to leave the hall. Xia Lian followed closely behind like a shadow.

Most of the sun had set outside the hall, and only a smear of color in the west sky was left. It was as red as blood and vaguely emitted an ominous aura.

Li Yunrong walked forward without a word. After leaving the hall, she parted ways with the other consorts.

After walking to an empty place, Li Yunrong instructed in a low voice, Xia Lian, send another food box to the Hall of Purity and let Madam Xiao try the snacks 1 made..
