Tang Dynasty：Live with princess Changele, Li Er is going crazy

Chapter 71: Empress Zhangsun and Noble Consort Wei Engaged in a Tug of War!

In the Lizheng Hall, Empress Zhangsun held a book in her hand as a maid hurried in, announcing, “Your Majesty, Noble Consort Wei has arrived!”

Empress Zhangsun, unfazed, replied, “I’m aware.” She had anticipated Empress Wei’s visit.

Not surprised, Empress Zhangsun even guessed Empress Wei’s purpose. Soon, Empress Wei entered Lizheng Hall with two court ladies.

“I’ve met the Empress,” Empress Wei greeted with a slight bow. Despite her noble title, Empress Zhangsun ruled the harem.

“Sister, no need for formality,” Empress Zhangsun said, setting aside her book and inviting Empress Wei to sit.

“I heard about your recent ailment. I wanted to visit, but I’ve been unwell too,” Empress Wei explained.

Empress Zhangsun, smiling, mentioned her sporadic health issues. “It comes and goes. I’m fine now.”

“That’s good,” Empress Wei said. “I heard you have some unique garments here. Any left?”

Empress Zhangsun nodded, mentioning a reserved set for Empress Wei. The conversation flowed, and Empress Zhangsun handed over a set of women’s thermal underwear.

“Thank you, sister. I’ve missed you,” expressed Empress Wei.

“Don’t mention it. Try it on,” Empress Zhangsun encouraged.

Noble Consort Wei gladly accepted the thermal underwear, appreciating its quality. “This feels amazing!”

“It has excellent warmth. Try it on in this cold weather,” Empress Zhangsun suggested with a smile.

“Sure, sister,” replied Empress Wei. The others left, leaving a few personal maids.

Empress Zhangsun assisted Empress Wei in putting on the thermal underwear. As she wore it, Noble Consort Wei exclaimed, “This is truly miraculous!”

It was snug but comfortable, highlighting Noble Consort Wei’s impressive figure even more. The most important aspect of heat retention, Consort Wei speculated that the insulation might be excellent, but she didn’t anticipate it to be this effective.

“How does it feel? Is it fitting?”

Consort Wei nodded, “Amazing, I didn’t expect something like this!”

Noble Consort Wei was also amazed. The insulation effect was remarkably strong. Feeling the warmth, Consort Wei found it incredibly comfortable. Wearing just this set was as warm as the previous pile of clothes.

“It looks impressive!”

Consort Wei, with her exquisite figure, received praise from Empress Zhangsun.

“I really like it; thank you, sister!” Consort Wei expressed gratitude and looked at the maid.

Understanding Consort Wei’s intention, the palace maid brought out a box containing gold.

Empress Zhangsun smiled, “Sister, what is this for?”

“Of course, it’s payment for the clothes!” Noble Consort Wei insisted.

Empress Zhangsun declined, “Sister, that’s unnecessary. We sisters don’t need such formality. Take the money back!”

Noble Consort Wei was initially surprised but eventually accepted Empress Zhangsun’s refusal.

“Your Majesty informed me about the money you voluntarily contributed yesterday,” Empress Zhangsun explained.

“One should do something for His Majesty willingly. I can’t accept this money,” Noble Consort Wei insisted.

After much back and forth, the money remained unaccepted.

“Sister, do you have more? I’d like a few extra sets,” everyone who wore them praised.

Noble Consort Wei, being a Consort, knew one set wouldn’t be enough.

“For now, we don’t have more; we’ll have to wait,” Empress Zhangsun stated.

“Mother!” Li Lizhi’s voice interrupted their conversation as she entered with many items.

The appearance of Li Lizhi surprised Consort Wei.

“I greet the Empress and Noble Consort!” Li Lizhi greeted.

“Long time no see. Lizhi has become even more beautiful and vibrant,” Consort Wei noticed the changes in Li Lizhi’s lips and skin.

Empress Zhangsun also nodded in agreement.

“I’ve found something fantastic!” Li Lizhi exclaimed.

Today, she wore light makeup, and Xiao Ran assisted her. Even her eyebrows were drawn, giving her a distinct appearance!
