Miss Situ was truly amusing, always coming up with innovative ideas. Just now, she contributed a Hundred Longevity Picture to celebrate her birthday, which was very much to her liking, and now, she had specifically performed a birthday song for her. The Empress Dowager seemed to take a particular liking to Xuexue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone present was discerning and could see how happy the Empress Dowager was. Instantly, thunderous applause erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xuexue slightly bent her body, “Your servant lady adapted a piece from ‘Drunken Penglai’, wishing the Empress Dowager happiness for many years to come, and a joyous today and tomorrow, year after year.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good, good, excellent!” The Empress Dowager felt content and repeatedly expressed her delight. Then, she asked Xuexue to sit by her side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Situ Qinger and She Na watched and grinded their teeth with hatred, yet they were puzzled at the same time. How could this little cheap person, who was clearly from a humble background, play instruments and sing songs?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, it was a piece adapted from poetry, something even they, who had been well-versed in literature from prominent families, could not master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Situ Qinger was shocked. She had suggested this idea to The Emperor and the Empress Dowager hoping for Xuexue to embarrass herself, not to steal the spotlight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, she felt extremely frustrated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The way Xuexue’s foster parents appeared, they didn’t seem to be from a wealthy family, yet they still managed to send this little mongrel to a private school, which felt somewhat unbelievable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This little cheap person, sooner or later I’ll skin her alive and show her,” She Na muttered softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister She, lower your voice. Don’t let anyone with ill intentions hear you! Speaking like this is not good for your reputation,” Situ Qinger said to She Na with a face full of concern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She Na was someone who lacked intelligence, and Situ Qinger often needed her help to get things done. Therefore, Situ Qinger took good care of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, this “care” came with quotation marks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This place was, after all, the Imperial Palace and She Na was still shaken from a setback earlier. Hearing Situ Qinger’s warning, she quickly glanced around, saw that everyone was focused on Xuexue, and let out a sigh of relief once she confirmed nobody had paid attention to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I was just too upset and couldn’t help but grumble a little,” She Na came to her senses and spoke up close to Situ Qinger in a low voice, slightly scared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister She, we are close, and it doesn’t matter if I hear it, but I’m afraid if someone with bad intentions overhears, it will be detrimental to you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I just knew you, Sister Qinger, are the kindest to me, unlike that nasty sweeping star of an elder sister you have. She’s so annoying, a real bane to me. Whenever I come across her, nothing good happens,” She Na complained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister She, don’t be angry. To put it plainly, she’s just a country girl. Even dressed up as the Eldest Legitimate Daughter of the General’s Mansion, deep down she’s still a country bumpkin, not worth your anger,” Situ Qinger soothed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“True, your elder sister is just a country bumpkin, unaware of the ways of the world. No matter what, as the Legitimate Daughter of the Ministerial Mansion in the Capital, I do have a reputation to maintain. She doesn’t show me any respect, and worse, in front of everyone, she even dared to call me a dog, that bold of her,” She Na’s anger flared up again as she spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Situ Qinger was distracted, her eyes intermittently glancing towards Xuexue, who was chatting and laughing merrily with the Empress Dowager on the stage. Her heart filled with jealousy. How could a country girl steal the show at the Empress Dowager’s birthday feast? She found it impossible to swallow this indignity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the piercing voice of a eunuch rang from outside: “The Fourth Prince has arrived, presenting the Empress Dowager with a birthday gift, a pair of Jade Ruyi.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xuexue, who was conversing with the Empress Dowager, stiffened momentarily, but quickly regained her composure, and continued to smile serenely at the Empress Dowager as if nothing had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Fourth Prince has come, that’s wonderful.” The Empress Dowager didn’t notice Xuexue’s reaction. A little girl, who had never been in the Imperial Palace before, was understandably nervous, and she was very understanding of that.\u003C\u002Fp>",767,"2026-05-30T10:56:37.081Z","2026-06-01T04:31:03.569Z",1,"novelbin.me","00bdc352c9ce58a3dd3cabb4beb9409fef69ac3701753f689fa2e802107e4d2b","rebirth-pampered-by-the-lord-chapter-783","rebirth-pampered-by-the-lord-chapter-781",2248,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frebirth-pampered-by-the-lord-cover.jpg"]
