On that day in Ronghui Garden, Lu Xinlan discovered that the emperor's concubines could not hear Lu Xinran's thoughts.
Stepping into the palace, his eyes swept over the concubines calmly, and this idea was confirmed again.
Concubines are also considered concubines according to their status. If they are not the head wives, they cannot hear their voices.
With this knowledge, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Only the queen must have heard those words of tiger and wolf just now.
"My maids, Lu Xinlan and Lu Xinran, have met the Queen, ladies and gentlemen."
The two of them saluted neatly, and Lu Xinran stood behind Lu Xinlan obediently and reassuringly.
The queen looked at them with a smile on her face: "Su Ping, show them their seats."
The eldest maid standing next to her immediately walked outside the palace and ordered two more chairs to be brought over.
Zhang Shui'er, who came to the palace early in the morning, sat next to the queen and winked at them.
The queen patted the back of her hand: "I know you won't be able to sit still when they come. Go sit over there with them."
"Thank you, aunt!"
Zhang Shui'er stood up with a smile and walked quickly beside them.
"My eldest brother has entered the palace and will come to greet my aunt later. This is a rare opportunity and I will introduce him to you later."
She looked at Lu Xinlan with burning eyes, wishing that she could abduct him home to be her sister-in-law in the next moment.
Lu Xinran, who had just found someone to rely on, was not willing to let her abduct the person, so she blocked the person behind her.
"No, my sister is mine. If I don't marry her, I can't marry her!"
"You," Zhang Shui'er was shocked by her unreasonableness, and then he scanned her up and down: "You can do it too, or you can be my sister-in-law."
Lu Xinran: "..."
[She is thinking nonsense. My sister and I are well-educated and sensible, but not everyone can reach high places! 】
[Families like theirs must have three wives and four concubines. The back house is noisy, so we won’t wade into the muddy waters. 】
[Whether it is me or my sister, if we must marry, we must marry someone who does not take concubines, who is honest and willing to live by our side. 】
[Dirty carrots only deserve to be clicked! 】
Zhang Shui'er was excited. This last sentence touched her blind spot of knowledge, but she felt... a little bloody for some reason.
The queen, who was sitting at the top and eavesdropping, looked at them lovingly and tolerantly. It was great to be young and she still had countless dreams for the future.
Unlike her, life has already been on a track, and she can't break away or escape, so she can only walk haggardly step by step.
"Oops~"
In the silence, Concubine Tong, who was suddenly promoted to a higher position, rubbed her waist coquettishly.
"Sister, I have been serving your Majesty these past two nights. You also know that Your Majesty is very energetic and energetic. I have been kept up all night without any rest, so I will be very sleepy. Why don't we just break up like this."
Concubine Tong was half showing off and half acting coquettishly. She didn't sleep well for two nights in a row, she was really sleepy.
The Queen looked at her Rourou, her heart so calm that there was no trace of disturbance in her heart.
"Okay, that's it for today. Sisters, please go back. Concubine Tong has worked hard in serving His Majesty these past two days. I will have someone go to the imperial kitchen to prepare a bowl of medicinal food for my sister and send it to her later."
"Why bother my sister so much? I can just let someone else handle this trivial matter."
Concubine Tong stood up with a smile, bowed slightly and turned to leave.
Lu Xinran and Zhang Shuier, who were huddled in front of the door, were stunned.
[Isn’t it true? How can you be so arrogant after sleeping for two days in a row? 】
[Is this how the emperor indulges his concubines? You can ignore the queen after sleeping with her! 】
Lu Xinran looked at the queen who had a slight smile on her lips, feeling angry and distressed.
[Emperor Dog, how can you be so ignorant! There is no dignity in this. This is obviously to force the queen to death. 】
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Just as she was thinking about cursing a few more words to relieve her anger, she heard a series of kneeling sounds coming from outside the palace.
"See Your Majesty."
[Why did the Dog Emperor come suddenly? 】
Lu Xinlan squeezed her wrist tightly, and Lu Xinran hurriedly knelt on the ground with everyone in the hall.
[This shabby palace has to kneel down when seeing people, and its knees must have turned blue. 】
As soon as the emperor entered the Changchun Palace, he heard a familiar voice and the word "dog emperor" with a bad tone.
Rarely, he didn't feel angry or displeased in his heart. He only glanced at someone who was kneeling on the ground pretending to be well-behaved when he entered the door.
"Why is Your Majesty here?"
The queen stood up to greet her, chatting in a gentle voice like an old married couple, but the emperor instantly heard her hidden annoyance.
He laughed and said, "The Queen is accusing me of not having someone inform me in advance?"
"I don't dare."
Giving up her seat, the queen waited for him to sit down and then said to the hall: "Everyone, get up."
Concubine Tong, who was so squeamish just now that she didn't show any dignity to the queen, entered the palace with a gentle swing and bowed softly to the emperor.
"I send my regards to Your Majesty."
[Tsk, why do I feel like Concubine Chen again. 】
[Is the Dog Emperor’s taste so specific? I like this kind of little white flower that is weak and willowy. 】
Listening to the arrangement that came to his ears, the emperor narrowed his eyes, with no emotion or anger on his expressionless face.
"If you feel unwell, go back and rest, and take good care of her in the palace for the next month."
Concubine Tong's cheeks were pale, and she looked at the emperor in shock and aggrievement.
How could she not realize that the emperor was beating her up and that she would be grounded for the next month?
But... the concubines in the palace have not always been like this. Why can Concubine Chen be able to do it but she can't?
She was swaying and tears fell almost instantly.
[There is really no innovation, it is all leftover from Concubine Chen’s fun. 】
【If you follow the path that others have taken, you will only die! 】
These complaints made the emperor unable to feel any pity or interest for Concubine Tong's pitiful appearance, so he could only wave his hand coldly to signal her to leave quickly.
[Look, look, I’ve said it a long time ago that the emperor will fall out when he pulls up his trousers. There is no need to be sincere and sincere. 】
[But, well, let me see, oh, she originally wanted to find an opportunity tonight to ask the emperor to mention an official position to her father or brother. 】
[What a pity, two nights of hard work were in vain. 】
[The girl from Zuichunlou paid a lot of money for one night. She worked so hard for two nights and got nothing in exchange. It's really a bit unfair. 】
The queen can't hold back any longer, this girl is so brave~
However, upon closer inspection, there seems to be no difference between the emperor and the prostitute.
The emperor's face gradually turned dark blue. He squinted his eyes and glanced at Lu Xinran. He considered himself a wise king, but he didn't want to hear the other party arrange him in this way again and again.
Especially, she doesn't know how many people will listen to her voice.
"Queen, there are a lot of places in the harem recently vacant, right?"
The Queen's heart skipped a beat, "What does Your Majesty mean by this question?"
"Since there are vacancies in the harem, why not select some more women from aristocratic families to join the harem."
