Quick Transmigration Cannon Fodder's Record of Counterattacks Chapter 1976: Keep a Low Profile for the Time Being
“System, what should I do now?” Noble Lady Zhou requested the favored concubine system’s help. This situation was fairly problematic.
Being identified as non-human… People from ancient tis avoided supernatural beings like the plague.
“Keep a low profile for the ti being,” the favored concubine system grimly said. “Think of a way to make the emperor believe in you.”
Noble Lady Zhou couldn’t help but hold a hand to her forehead. This was giving her a headache. There truly was danger at every step in this inner palace!
In order to strive for favor, these won would really do anything: even accuse her of being a fox spirit.
“His Majesty has arrived.” The eunuch’s sharp voice sounded outside the Jade Court.
Noble Lady Zhou imdiately stood up and walked to the doorway to welco Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu’s expression was dark as he walked in and sat on a chair.
“Your Majesty, what’s wrong?” Noble Lady Zhou asked gently and cautiously.
Zhao Xu glanced at the devastatingly beautiful Noble Lady Zhou. As she spoke, the breath she exhaled slled like orchids-a simple and elegant fragrance.
It seed like the person in front of him ate dew instead of needing food. There was no hint of body odor at all. And while it was normal to not have an unpleasant odor in the mouth, the underlying fragrance was definitely not normal.
While her breath was like orchids, her skin also slled of flowery perfu.
“Have you heard the palace rumors?” Zhao Xu asked Noble Lady Zhou.
He glanced at the decorations in Noble Lady Zhou’s room, finding them contrary to what he expected. The decor was abnormally elegant, inspiring comfort in visitors.
“Since this matter was brought up…this concubine feels very wronged!” Noble Lady Zhou’s face was aggrieved and helpless. “This concubine isn’t a fox spirit at all.”
“That, I believe. However, it was also said that an immortal gave you an elixir. Again, how did that rumor start?” Zhao Xu stared at Noble Lady Zhou. “I don’t believe such nonsense.”
“But what kind of dicine did you use for the wound on your back? It healed very well.” Zhao Xu asked lightly, as if just in passing.
Noble Lady Zhou paled. Her heart wailed in anguish. What dicine did she use? It was the system’s energy that made her wound heal so quickly.
“That is…this concubine’s dicine was passed down in the family. While it had a wonderful effect on the stab wound, this concubine’s dicine has already been used up.” Noble Lady Zhou found a reason.
Zhao Xu nodded. “So it’s like that.”
“You don’t need to mind those rumors. You are my woman. No one will harm you,” Zhao Xu said resolutely.
“Your Majesty…” Noble Lady Zhou’s eyes overflowed with tears. “This concubine thanks Your Majesty for showing such concern and care.”
“I will be having breakfast here,” Zhao Xu said.
“Does Your Majesty truly want to stay here to dine?” Noble Lady Zhou looked at Zhao Xu with lustrous eyes.
The corner of Zhao Xu’s mouth hooked up. “Why? Am I not welco?”
“Of course, this concubine is happy.” Noble Lady Zhou’s face carried a brilliant smile and she instructed the maid to prepare breakfast without delay.
Although Noble Lady Zhou’s smile was brilliant, her thoughts were mired in dark clouds. Before, she had monts when she desperately wanted to be doted on. Yet now that the system asked her to keep a low profile, Zhao Xu had co over.
Noble Lady Zhou felt that the heavens were playing with her.
Nothing goes smoothly when sothing has to be done.
Although it was only breakfast, Zhao Xu’s presence caused it to feel like sothing more. The two of them encircled the table to have breakfast.
Noble Lady Zhou looked at Zhao Xu, taking in his dignified bearing.
What low profile? There was no use keeping a low profile. She might as well beco the favored concubine imdiately. As long as there was an emperor protecting her, what hurdle could be too high to overco?
She wouldn’t mind those won. Currying favor with the emperor was enough. Zhao Xu would fix this situation.
