Emperor Wu found it suspicious. "You don't look happy. Do you still have objections about Feng Wu?"
"No!" Of course Empress Dugu couldn't admit her jealousy. That would mean she had been telling lies until now.
The emperor could allow mistakes, but he wouldn't tolerate lies.
She put on the most professional smile. "Your Majesty, I'll come with you."
The empress dowager resided in Cining Palace.
She hadn't been feeling well these days and had been spending most of her time in bed.
Granny Lan asked gently, "Your Majesty, shall we summon Miss Feng Wu to have a look?"
The empress dowager darted a stern look at her.
Granny Lan was on Feng Wu's team, but she wasn't the empress dowager's only maid.
Granny Zhu moved closer and said, "Firmament Palace has great doctors, and Miss Zuo Qingluan is their sacred lady. I'm sure she's wonderful."
The empress dowager didn't say yes, but she didn't say no either.
