Jiang Yuanyuan was also the woman Hua Li gave to Hua Yiyao. Why did I say that? Because Hua Li had given many women to Hua Yiyao, not just Jiang Yuanyuan, and now, Su Yang had become one of them.
Su Yang glanced at Jiang Yuanyuan casually and then looked away. He did not let her sit down or greet her, and completely ignored the group of people including the woman in red.
The scene was very embarrassing for a while.
Jiang Yuanyuan's face turned ugly for a moment. A discerning beauty following behind Jiang Yuanyuan stepped forward and said to Su Yang in a haughty manner, "How dare you not kneel before the Imperial Concubine? Do you think you are still the one being held in the Emperor's palm? Commander Hua has sent another beauty to the Emperor. Soon the Emperor will expel you from the Xianghe Palace. I advise you to be sensible and kowtow to the Imperial Concubine and admit your mistake."
Su Yang raised his eyes to look at the beautiful girl who was speaking, and suddenly stood up, startling the beautiful girl so much that she subconsciously took a step back.
"You are the one who should admit your mistake, right? Do you know that Concubine Yuan was also the beauty given to the emperor by Commander Hua? Are you implying that Concubine Yuan has fallen out of favor?" Su Yang said with a smile.
When the little beauty heard this, her face suddenly changed. She knelt down in front of Jiang Yuanyuan and said, "That's not what I meant. Please spare my life, Your Majesty!"
Jiang Yuanyuan glanced at the little beauty with a look of disappointment and said, "Back off!"
"Thank you, thank you, Your Majesty. I'll take my leave." The beautiful lady, who had thought she could make some contribution in front of Jiang Yuanyuan, left reluctantly. Before leaving, she turned back and glared at Su Yang, with hatred in her eyes.
Su Yang couldn't help but frown. She had no grudge against the little beauty, so where did she get such a big grudge? Since she called herself a commoner, it seemed that she was the daughter of an ordinary family. With such an ordinary face, she was able to enter the palace as a beauty, which was quite a feat.
Jiang Yuanyuan said sternly, "Xue Yang, I'm not here to cause you any trouble, but to form an alliance with you."
When Su Yang heard this, she almost didn't react. She almost forgot that except for the position of Queen which was temporarily vacant, the other positions of concubines were full, and Jin Yu would soon take the position of Queen. Suddenly, the fragile and elegant appearance of Hua Yiyao appeared in her mind. She really couldn't understand how Hua Yiyao could take care of so many women.
"Not interested." Su Yang said lightly.
Seeing Su Yang's refusal so bluntly, Jiang Yuanyuan's face froze: "Don't be ungrateful. I came to you because I think highly of you."
Su Yang crossed his arms and said with amusement, "Are you worried that I will be wooed by other concubines and it will affect your status in the harem? After all, I am the only woman who can live in the Xianghe Palace. But don't worry, I will not surrender to any of you. I have no interest in Hua Yiyao."
Jiang Yuanyuan felt a little embarrassed when her thoughts were guessed. When she heard Su Yang calling the emperor's name so blatantly, she couldn't help but say angrily, "How dare you call the emperor's name directly!"
Su Yang was slightly stunned, then smiled sheepishly and said, "Sorry, I'm used to it."
It seemed that she had always been unruly in front of Hua Yiyao since she entered the palace. She had never bowed to Hua Yiyao, nor had she ever called him "Emperor". She had always called him Hua Yiyao or Ziyao, and Hua Yiyao also called her Su Yang.
At first, Su Yang would correct Hua Yiyao: "Xue Yang, Su Yang is a pseudonym."
However, Hua Yiyao said bluntly: "It doesn't matter whether it's true or not, as long as I like it."
