Chu Nanli played with Xiao Guai for a while before instructing Yanyan to take Xiao Guai to the backyard to be temporarily cared for, then she began her dinner.
By this time, her morning sickness had subsided, and food smelled particularly appetizing.
The servants in the courtyard saw Lin Concubine walking over and, worried about displeasing Chu Nanli by admitting her, yet dared not to stop her.
Lin Fuying noticed their unease and with a gentle expression said, "Is it that my sister does not welcome me?"
Upon hearing this, the servants broke out in cold sweat and hastily explained, "Not at all, the Princess Consort is dining..."
Dong Yue stepped forward and scolded sharply, "How dare you offend our Concubine! In the Prince's main courtyard, no one dares to stop us, what are you in comparison?!"
Her words not only scolded the servants but also belittled Chu Nanli in the process.
Lin Fuying remained silent, quietly letting Dong Yue defend her.
"What's happening?"
