Chapter 805 The Look of Affection

```

Over the years, the old Emperor indeed took in many favored concubines, but the constant beauty was none other than the Virtuous Consort; her position had never been touched. There was a newly-arrived talented woman who thought the Virtuous Consort was out of favor and went to her palace quarters to show off her might. As a result, when the Emperor found out, he immediately ordered the talented woman to be poisoned. Since then, no concubine dared to set foot in the Virtuous Consort's courtyard.

Now, upon mentioning her visit, the Emperor's usually indifferent face suddenly showed emotion, and he immediately ordered, "Summon her quickly!"

The Virtuous Consort entered shortly after, still dressed in white, her appearance simple and tranquil. Upon seeing the Empress there, she first greeted the Emperor, then paid her respects to the Empress. The Empress couldn't let her show such respect, hurriedly saying, "Virtuous Consort, sister, please rise, you truly mustn't."
