The little palace Servant replied, "Yes, Miss Liu deliberately stayed behind to wait for Miss Guan with ."
Guan Yue looked at Liu Yingnan with a haunting gaze, scrutinizing her.
"Liu Yingnan, you did well."
Otherwise, it would have been awkward for her to go to the pavilion alone, luckily Liu Yingnan stayed behind to accompany her.
The little palace Servant led the way.
Guan Yue unusually spoke to Liu Yingnan first, "Thank you."
Liu Yingnan smiled slightly, "Miss Guan, you’re too polite. After all, I already consider you all my friends. But..."
She hesitated.
Guan Yue looked at her, "But what?"
"But later, Miss Guan, you’ll need to make an effort." Liu Yingnan lowered her voice, "Just after you left, Miss Zhou said sothing unpleasant."
Guan Yue’s eyebrows suddenly furrowed, "Zhou Miao? She dared to speak about ?!"
Liu Yingnan made a gesture, signaling her to lower her voice.
"I think Miss Zhou didn’t intentionally target you, but she said last ti the Princess rewarded with pastries."
"This ti, she ought to reward you and ntioned that the Princess might have favored you as a study companion long ago. She said in this hot weather, we are all here to serve as your backdrop."
"Perhaps she spoke impulsively, and Miss Zhou probably didn’t have ill intentions?" Liu Yingnan cautiously said.
She watched Guan Yue’s expression.
As expected, Guan Yue’s eyes widened in anger.
"On what basis does she say such things? The Princess treats everyone equally, choosing who will be the study companion, how would I know? How did it beco decided by her mouth?"
"Later I must confront her!" Guan Yue gritted her teeth.
Liu Yingnan looked panicked, "Miss Guan, please don’t say that I passed on the ssage, or else Miss Zhou might hold a grudge against ."
Guan Yue glanced at her, "It’s none of your business! Coward!"
Liu Yingnan shrank her neck and lowered her head silently.
After entering the pavilion through the corridor, Guan Yue heard Bai Zhi’er’s crisp and sweet laughter.
"Zhou Miao, it seems your Piano Skill has improved again!" Bai Zhi’er praised with sparkling eyes.
Zhou Miao embraced her pipa, unable to conceal her happiness after being praised.
"After the Princess ntioned it last ti, I returned to the estate and practiced several compositions. By the way, I also invited Chu Yi to join, and soon, we will perform a duet for the Princess."
Bai Zhi’er clapped her little hands, "Great!"
Guan Yue watched from the side, tightly biting her lower lip.
Bai Zhi’er turned her gaze and saw them, "Guan Yue, Yingnan, you’re back. I just heard from sister palace maid that Guan Yue, you weren’t feeling well. Are you feeling better now?"
Guan Yue bowed, "Thank Your Highness for your concern, the servant is fine now."
After speaking, she directly looked at Zhou Miao.
"I have only just realized, Miss Zhou, usually reserved and proud, when smiling and playing the pipa, reminds of a poem, Pipa Xing."
Zhou Miao’s face paled, "Miss Guan, if you praise my playing, then thank you."
Guan Yue waved her hand, "I’m not only praising your lody but saying your appearance of half hiding the pipa is no different from the woman in the poem."
Zhou Miao is not of a soft temperant.
Hearing this, she suddenly stood up, angrily asking, "What do you an by this?"
At this ti, Liu Yingnan gently tugged Guan Yue’s sleeve from behind.
"Miss Guan," Liu Yingnan’s voice was light, but everyone heard her, "No matter how well written Pipa Xing is, that woman is ultimately a song-selling courtesan. How can you say that about Miss Zhou?"
