Xiao Yuan walked up to Tang Yu and said, "Master, everything is ready. We are just waiting for your order."

Tang Yu curled his lips and said nothing, with a faint smile in his eyes.

He just looked at the yellow leaves outside the window. The servants in the yard were sweeping the yellow leaves that occasionally fell in the yard with brooms in their hands. Time was quiet. Tang Yu stroked his lower abdomen with a meaningful look in his eyes.

However, there was an uninvited guest in the yard.

Zhou Liangdi.

Ever since the last birthday banquet for the emperor, Zhou Liangdi had been resting in her bedroom on sick leave, and had never gone to the Star-Moon Palace to pay respects.

Zhou Liangdi and her maid Ruochun had not seen each other for only half a month, but she had unexpectedly become so haggard. She looked much thinner, with sunken cheeks and prominent cheekbones.

He used to have a handsome appearance, but now he looks like a sad old man.

Tang Yu did not stand up. Zhou Liangdi saw Tang Yu sitting by the window and tried to force herself to smile, but it was extremely forced and her eyes were full of bitterness.

She just glanced and looked away.

Seeing that Tang Yu was not as close to her as before, Zhou Liangdi couldn't help but lower her head and smile bitterly. The two of them were only a dozen steps apart, but it seemed as if there were thousands of mountains and rivers between them.

We can never go back to the time when we laughed and joked together, and stood together to face Ning Liangyuan's difficulties together.

Zhou Liangdi lowered her head and walked into the hall.

She pushed away the maid's hand and saluted Tang Yu with her frail body.

"I have met the Concubine, and I hope she is well."

"Get up." Tang Yu didn't even glance at Zhou Liangdi. He just spoke calmly, his eyes still fixed on the withered yellow leaves that fell to the ground again. "Sister, your illness is very severe. How come you have lost so much weight? I almost couldn't recognize you."

She heard Tang Yu calling her sister.

Zhou Liangdi's mouth was stiff.

In fact, this is how it should be. If the women in the Prince's Mansion have a good relationship with each other, they will not care much about being called sister. The one who is served first is naturally the senior, so they will be called sister to show respect.

But if the later comer holds a higher position, then we have to distinguish between the superior and the inferior based on their positions.

It means that the lower position calls the higher position sister.

But half a month ago, Tang Yu still called her Sister Zhou, but now, not much time has passed, Tang Yu starts calling her Sister.

Zhou Liangdi could hardly even smile the stiff smile on her lips.

"Sister Yu is right. The weather is hot and cold, so it affects my health. Now that I feel better, I hurried over to visit my sister. I was afraid that my sister... no, sister would worry."

Tang Yu replied calmly, "Well, I am quite worried."

There was nothing to say for a long while.

The two of them just sat there quietly and awkwardly. It was obvious that Zhou Liangdi came prepared at this time, and she wanted to see what Zhou Liangdi had to say.

After waiting for a while and getting impatient, Zhou Liangdi finally spoke.

Just a lonely tone.

"Sister, do you know everything that happened before?"

After taking a look at her, Tang Yu finally glanced at her willingly.

"Why don't I understand what my sister is talking about? What happened last time? What happened last time?"

Zhou Liangdi kept looking in a certain direction and continued.

"I used you to kill Ning Liangyuan, but Ning Liangyuan poisoned you instead. I feel very guilty about this. I was bullied by her for many years, and the Crown Princess ignored me. I wanted to seek refuge with Concubine Wan, but Concubine Wan also looked down on me. Only your arrival, my sister, gave me hope.
