84 Bai Xun meets the second Queen Consort

Imperial Palace, Imperial City;

In the imperial gardens, the Supreme Commander/Commander-in-chief/ Chief General, the great Bai Xun is having tea with a graceful-looking lady. She's in her late forties but looks more like in her mid-thirties.

There were a couple of maids standing behind her and a lot of Royal Knights/ Imperial guards were standing a bit far, so as to not intrude the privacy. If not for the fact that the Emperor cherishes this beautiful woman, Bai Xun would have talked with her in a private chamber because of the sensitive matter.

But, he doesn't want any silly rumors that can potentially drive the wedge between him and the Emperor. This is the reason the meeting has been arranged in the open.

Not to mention, it is a well-known fact that both of them are like siblings prior to her marriage with the Emperor. But, after she gave birth to the prince, Bai Xun rarely interacted with her to maintain his neutrality in politics.
