Chapter 534 - 534 Noble Consort Qiao’s Domineering Side534 Noble Consort Qiao’s Domineering Side
When she said that, everyone realized.
Concubine Bai was indeed wearing the clothes made from materials that had been distributed by the Palace Affairs Bureau last year.
Not only that, but the sides of her cheeks were so thin that they were about to cave in.
She also looked listless.
!!
It was obvious that if Consort Rou did not give her a share of the monthly distribution, she would not even be able to eat meat.
Noble Consort Qiao’s beautiful eyes swept over, carrying an unreasonable oppressive and stunning beauty.

Concubine Bai trembled and lowered her head. “This concubine is timid and doesn’t dare to disturb Your Highness with such a small matter. This concubine also heard that Consort Rou is not feeling well, so I guessed that she might have forgotten. It’s just that it’s getting colder by the day and it’s almost late autumn. This concubine really can’t stand it anymore.”
Noble Consort Qiao glanced sideways at Wanxuan. “What illness is Consort Rou suffering from?”
Wanxuan hurriedly waved her hand and asked the second-grade palace maid to bring the palace records.
Turning to Consort Rou’s page, Wanxuan said, “Since four months ago, Consort Rou has been sick. The first two months, she said that she had a rash. She didn’t explain the reason for it for the next two months, but the Imperial Academy of Medicine is still prescribing medicine. This servant thus thought that she hadn’t recovered from her illness.”
Consort Yi propped her head up and said thoughtfully, “I vaguely remember that Consort Rou hasn’t come to pay her respects to the Noble Consort for three to four months, right? What rash is it? If it’s so serious, is it contagious?”
As if thinking of something terrifying, Consort Yi covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief.
Noble Consort Qiao also frowned and looked at the medical book handed over by the Imperial Academy of Medicine.
From the records, Consort Rou was indeed prescribed a prescription used for treating rashes every month.
In just a few breaths, Noble Consort Qiao closed the booklet and handed it back to Wanxuan.
She looked at Concubine Bai and said, “Someone, announce my oral decree. When Consort Rou has not recovered from her illness, Qingwu Palace mustn’t be without someone to manage it. From today onwards, Concubine Bai will be tasked to manage the Qingwu Palace.”
As a manager of a palace, even her monthly salary would increase significantly!
It was as if Concubine Bai had suddenly been knocked by a pie that had fallen from the sky.
She raised her thin cheeks in disbelief.
It took her a long time to react and she kept kowtowing to Noble Consort Qiao. “Thank you, Your Highness! Thank you for your grace!”
Noble Consort Qiao nodded. “Since Consort Rou has a rash, I believe the things that had been sent to her would not be safe to use even if you were to take them back. Go to the Palace Affairs Bureau with Wanyin later and say that you’re under my orders to withdraw this month’s distributions.”
Hearing this, Concubine Bai cried even harder.
She kept calling the Noble Consort a good person.

She was never one to target small fries who had no combat strength.
Therefore, she never wasted her energy on things that could be resolved with a few words.
However, Consort Rou could not sit still.
When she heard that Noble Consort Qiao had directly taken away her right as the palace manager, she was furious in the hall!
“How can this Noble Consort Qiao be so unreasonable!”
The nanny hurriedly went forward to dissuade her. “Your Highness, take care of your body!”
Consort Rou received her hint and hurriedly held her stomach and took a deep breath.
She bit her lip. “I can’t wait any longer. Nanny, go and wait at the imperial study. When His Majesty is done, immediately invite him over. I want to tell His Majesty about this as soon as possible!”
The nanny received the order and quickly went out.
The appearance of the master and servant pair was seen by a seemingly inconspicuous maid sweeping the floor.
After the little palace maid finished sweeping the floor, she quietly walked towards the Qiushui Palace.
