wave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Invite her in!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, she wasn’t an outsider, no need for avoidance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maid complied and left, soon leading the Sixth Princess Consort in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Initially, she was happily ready to pay respects to the Mother Empress, but upon looking up, she saw the scene behind the beaded curtain and screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her smile instantly froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’What is this...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’What’s going on?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Awkwardly

there for, quickly pay respects to your sister-in-law!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Zhu was taken aback upon hearing this, feeling puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Didn’t Aunt despise this foreign Commandery Princess before?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’How is it that now...they are closer than mother and daughter, this...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She became instantly wary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looks like this Hai Feng is indeed no simple person!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After thinking for a moment, she still stepped forward to pay respects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Greetings, Sister-in-law!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hai Feng smiled as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You may rise quickly, Sister, I can’t lift my hands! Just find a place to sit yourself!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Lady Zhu thanked her and stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But inside, she felt even more uneasy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Telling her to sit?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Could it be she sees this place as her own home?’\u003C\u002Fp>",1327,"2026-05-30T07:41:33.116Z","2026-06-01T04:30:40.316Z",1,"novelbin.me","de0561a40897c58567b54821ad49b6f77013a7a9003c0f21fddabce4c99af1c2","a-foodie-transmigrated-into-the-palace-chapter-1065","a-foodie-transmigrated-into-the-palace-chapter-1063",1204,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fa-foodie-transmigrated-into-the-palace-cover.jpg"]
