Chapter 73: There’s Light on You, I Can See It

Noble Consort Qiao raised her phoenix eyes and sized up the cautious palace maid in front of her.

She was only about 12 or 13 years old. She was not old, her face was yellow, her hair was dry and she looked dirty.

She couldn’t find anything on the girl that was worthy of letting her stay.

What did Baby Nuo like about her?

At this moment, the empress’s second-grade palace maid sent a message. “Your Highness, the empress has woken up.”

Noble Consort Qiao quickly got up and was about to go and visit the empress.

At this moment, Gu Nuo’er suddenly said in a soft and pleasant voice, “Mother, then let Elder Sister Mu play with me for a while!”

Noble Consort Qiao hesitated for a moment.

This Mu Shuzhen only looked mysterious and didn’t look like she would suddenly attack.

Moreover, there were palace maids around. She wouldn’t do anything to Gu Nuo’er.

Noble Consort Qiao thought for a while and nodded in agreement. “Baby Nuo, wait here. Mother will be back soon.”

After she left, the eunuch in charge hurriedly brought the four palace maids to follow after her.

After all, they were picking maids for the empress. In the end, the empress had to take a look at them.

The girl called A’Yun followed the closest.

After they left, only Gu Nuo’er and Mu Shuzhen were left.

The child sat on the chaise lounge and swayed her small feet. The bell on her head rang crisply.

“Elder Sister Shuzhen, when you serve Empress Mother in the future, remember to wash your face! You can’t make yourself look so yellow!”

Mu Shuzhen was stunned.

To think that the princess could actually tell that she had done something to her face.

She nodded awkwardly.

Mu Shuzhen hesitated a few times before asking, “Why did Your Highness choose this servant to stay and serve the empress?”

Gu Nuo’er looked at her, her black and watery eyes filled with a clear glimmer.

It was as if she had seen through everything.

Gu Nuo’er said in a soft voice, “Elder Sister Shuzhen, don’t pretend in front of me! I can see that you have a green glow on you.

“Previously, when I was reading in the library, Baby Nuo saw it. They said that cultivators will have a light on them!”

Mu Shuzhen was stunned.

Ever since she entered the palace, this was the first person to directly reveal her secret.

And this person was actually a three-year-old princess!

Gu Nuo’er took a sip of tea and stuck out her tongue from the bitterness.

“I don’t like this. Candy is better!”

She looked at Mu Shuzhen innocently and said, “Elder Sister Shuzhen deliberately followed us over. Isn’t it because you saw that Elder Sister A’Yun is plagued by bad luck?

“Elder Sister Shuzhen is so concerned about everyone’s safety. I think you’re a good person, so you have to stay by Empress Mother’s side!”

Mu Shuzhen was completely stunned this time.

The little princess had always been rumored to be a good daughter bestowed by the heavens.

However, she was only three years old. Mu Shuzhen really didn’t expect her to be so amazing.

Facing Gu Nuo’er’s watery eyes, Mu Shuzhen no longer wanted to hide anything.

However, she cowered and said carefully, “Since Princess knows, why don’t you just let Her Highness chase A’Yun away?”

Judging from how much the Noble Consort Qiao doted on the princess, as long as the princess asked, she would definitely agree to it.

Gu Nuo’er glanced at her, seeming a little surprised.

She stood on the ground, her small hands at her waist, looking like a small pearl that couldn’t figure things out…

“Elder Sister Shuzhen, why are you so stupid? Without A’Yun to bring bad luck, how would there be a chance for you to help Empress Mother?

“I’m helping you. Aiya, you’re so stupid! Don’t you want to be valued by everyone?”

Gu Nuo’er shook her head and sighed as she spoke. Her small face puffed up as she repeated, “Stupid, stupid~”
