Chapter 152 Fuling's Ambition Exposed! The Imperial Concubine is Enraged

Consort Liu's eyebrows furrowed tightly, and she looked at her with displeasure: "If you had such thoughts, why didn't you say so sooner?"

"Your Majesty, this servant dares not. This servant only... this servant thought that if this servant could rise in rank, perhaps this servant could also help Your Majesty. This servant follows Your Majesty around every day, watching His Majesty, and this servant finds it really hard not to be tempted." Fuling knew Consort Liu's personality, so since things had developed to this point, she naturally had to tell the truth.

Looking at Fuling's pitiful appearance, Consort Liu smiled and then said indifferently, "If you have the ability, you should strive for it yourself. Expecting me to arrange things for you is something I cannot do!"

Although such situations do occur in the imperial harem, Consort Liu would never allow her people to do such things, nor would she personally arrange such matters.

After saying this, Consort Liu got up and walked outside.

Previously, Consort Liu felt quite good here, at least the imperial kitchen's cooking skills were very good, and she was happy eating and drinking. But now, Consort Liu is somewhat depressed.

She went straight to Meng Yanzhi's courtyard and saw Meng Yanzhi still swinging on the swing. Consort Liu was filled with envy. She finally understood why Meng Yanzhi didn't like the harem and wanted freedom.

"Your Majesty?"

Meng Yanzhi looked at Consort Liu with some surprise, then hurriedly got up and knelt down to pay her respects.

"Greetings, Your Highness the Imperial Concubine."

Meng Yanzhi stood up and looked at Consort Liu with a smile.

"Why has Your Highness come in person? Is there something you need?"

Consort Liu glanced at Meng Yanzhi, then sat down on the swing, smiled, and said, "It's nothing. I was just feeling very bored in the palace, so I came to see you. I didn't expect you to be having so much fun!"

Meng Yanzhi then realized what was happening, smiled gently, and took out her treasured snacks, handing them to Consort Liu.

"Sesame balls are sweet, and eating a lot of them can help nourish your hair."

Consort Liu was sometimes really curious and couldn't understand why Meng Yanzhi had so many strange ideas.

She picked up a sesame ball, put it in her mouth, and soon the fragrant aroma of sesame filled her nostrils.

Consort Liu, her eyes crinkling with a smile, stared at Meng Yanzhi and said with a smile, "It's really delicious, sweet and fragrant. This can really nourish your hair?"

"Yes, eating it often can nourish the lungs and hair." Meng Yanzhi smiled slightly, shamelessly sat down next to Consort Liu, and popped a sesame ball into her mouth, saying with a smile, "Your Majesty, there is nothing in this world that eating and drinking cannot solve. If you eat happily and play happily, life will naturally be happy!"

As she spoke, Meng Yanzhi swung the swing heavily.

She looked at Consort Liu with a smile: "Your Highness, is it fun?"

Everyone has played on a swing, and Consort Liu was well past the age of enjoying swings. But for some reason, when she was with Meng Yanzhi, Consort Liu felt that even something as childish as swinging on a swing became so interesting.

Xiao Xingyuan was already somewhat annoyed, but upon hearing Meng Yanzhi's increasingly cheerful laughter, he immediately became restless. He hurried over and saw the two of them on a swing set, basking in the sunlight, their smiles as bright as flowers.

This scene was so beautiful that even Xiao Xingyuan was reluctant to disturb it.

"Wang Huanhai, tell me, how did she manage to make everyone like her?" Xiao Xingyuan couldn't help but ask the question.

During this time, Xiao Xingyuan discovered that Meng Yanzhi was truly remarkable. Everyone in the harem liked her, including everyone in the imperial kitchen and the entire harem. In fact, after her arrival, his harem became much more harmonious.

“Miss Meng is indeed vibrant, living like a little sun.” Wang Huanhai smiled gently.

Perhaps it was because they had spent so long in the palace that they all liked Meng Yanzhi's free and unrestrained nature.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xingyuan sighed: "Actually, she has a very difficult time at home."

Upon hearing this, Wang Huanhai immediately thought of the chaotic state of the Meng family and laughed: "If that's the case, then wouldn't Miss Meng be even more formidable?"

"You old codger, you're really getting better and better at talking these days!"

"Alright, it's rare to see them all so happy, I'll head back now."

Xiao Xingyuan had originally planned to give Meng Yanzhi a good talking-to, but he couldn't bear to disturb their happy moment.

Consort Liu had come with a belly full of anger, but after spending some time with Meng Yanzhi, her mood improved considerably. She now finally understood why Xiao Xingyuan liked her so much.

This girl has such abilities, she's so amazing. Being with her makes you feel so relaxed and happy.

"Your Majesty, shall we have dinner together tonight?" Meng Yanzhi glanced at the time. "I'll make Your Majesty's favorite sweet fermented rice balls, and I'll also make coconut chicken for you, okay?"

Consort Liu nodded immediately, and then silently entered Meng Yanzhi's small room, waiting to eat and drink.

Meng Yanzhi worked quickly, making a little extra for each dish. After sending Tan Yun over, she carried the tray back to her room.

With a smile, she placed everything on the table and looked at Consort Liu with a beaming smile: "Your Majesty, this soup was specially made for you!"

Consort Liu was already extremely pleased with the delicious aroma.

She immediately picked up her chopsticks and began to eat heartily: "Rouge, you're really amazing! How did you do that? It tastes even better than what the imperial kitchen makes!"

Do you like it?

"If you like it, I'll make more for you in the future."

Meng Yanzhi smiled as she looked at Consort Liu, and then served her a bowl of soup.

"Your Majesty, you should eat more and move around more. Only in this way will your body be healthy and your spirits be high!"

"After all, Your Majesty is still in the prime of your life, why make yourself look old and frail?"

As Meng Yanzhi spoke, she began to eat without a care in the world.

When dining with Xiao Xingyuan, Meng Yanzhi was always very cautious, but she was much more at ease when dining with Consort Liu.

Consort Liu hadn't eaten so happily in a long time. After she finished eating, she prepared to go back. At this moment, Meng Yanzhi gave her two more roasted sweet potatoes before sending her back.

The entire Zhaoyang Palace was frantic with worry because they couldn't find Consort Liu. When they saw Meng Yanzhi bringing her back, Fuling immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, you're finally back."
