Chapter 905: Three Women, Open Enemies and Secret Friends

Sister Hong leaned against the door frame to rest, her face flushed, showing that she had endured tremendous pain in walking from the door to here.

Su Nuan walked over and picked up Sister Hong in a princess hug, placing her on the chaise longue.

Sister Hong sighed and said, "Nuannuan, if you were a man, I would cling to you and would not let anyone else appear around you."

Lu Bayue was unhappy and made a playful face, "Lululu... I don't care whether she is a man or a woman, I will pester her to death."

Sister Hong laughed and said, "Little girl, I can easily crush you to death."

After a pause, she continued, "Nuannuan, do you have any medicine left? Ten parts for internal injuries, and more for external injuries. It would be best if it can stop bleeding immediately. If that doesn't work, find me some lime; it stops bleeding quickly."

Su Nuan looked at her in astonishment. "Lime? That would burn the wound and make it difficult to heal. Let me give you some plaster."

"If the bleeding is severe, use disinfectant to clean the wound and then apply a thick layer of plaster..."

"If you don't have time to bandage it, I'll get you some tape. It's sticky, so just wrap it around."

Sister Hong's eyes were bright, and coupled with her naturally charming smile, she looked like a vixen at that moment.

She licked her lips and said, "Tsk tsk, any of these things would cost a fortune. No, even if you have money you might not be able to buy them. Now that you say that, I'm even more confident."

Although Su Nuan was curious, she resisted the urge to ask. If Sister Hong was willing to talk, she would definitely tell her.

Lu Bayue couldn't help herself. She asked curiously, "Sister Hong, are you going to massacre the city?"

Sister Hong knew Lu Bayue's background. She smiled and said, "If my spies hadn't figured you out, I really wouldn't want to talk to you."

"I have a lot of spies in the ghost town. Now that man is destroying the ghost town like crazy. Many of my people are injured."

"I will now gather them all to Sifang City and reorganize them. I want them to become the largest spy hall in Sifang Country."

Su Nuan touched her chin and said, "Why not call it the Shadow Pavilion? The Pavilion Master is the Imperial Concubine. Tsk tsk, just think about it. Even I, the Queen, would be proud of it."

Sister Hong glanced at Su Nuan, "What are you thinking? Do you know how much money it costs to support a pavilion? If there are less than 10,000 people, it can't be called a pavilion."

"Hey... it's impossible for these 10,000 people to create value every day, so do you know how much it costs to eat, drink, defecate and urinate in a day?"

Su Nuan tapped her lips with her index finger, a bewildered look in her eyes. "But I have a lot of things that are hard to sell. If I keep them in my hands, they're worthless. If someone buys them, they'll be priceless. What should I do?"

Sister Hong, "..." She smelled a strong smell of showing off wealth.

Su Nuan tilted her head, her whole body smelling of tea. "Sister, you said these things of mine have piled up like a mountain. What should I do?"

Sister Hong took a deep breath, and then felt a stabbing pain in her chest as if thousands of needles were piercing her heart.

Her expression changed, and after calming down, she said, "If it didn't hurt to breathe right now, I would definitely grab you and slap you twice."

"Is there anyone who flaunts their wealth like you? Others who flaunt their wealth will only get envy, but your display of wealth could directly cost lives."

Lu Bayue also came back to her senses. She didn't feel jealous or suffocated, but she felt a strong sense of grievance.

She reached out and pinched Su Nuan's sleeve, shaking it, and asked aggrievedly, "Can you let me see it before you sell it?"

Su Nuan chuckled, "Seeing how aggrieved you look, I'll put the things in Sister Hong's warehouse when her Shadow Pavilion is built. It will be convenient for me to check then."

"I think the palace will be built by then, and you should have your own palace. You can move whatever you like into your palace, or use it as decoration."

Sister Hong said disdainfully, "It's all in my pocket, and you let other women take it out. I don't like it."

After saying that, she looked at Lu Bayue with hostility again, "Don't even think about taking a needle from me, little girl. We are mortal enemies."

Lu Bayue was frightened by Sister Hong's aura and she shrank back.

Sister Hong frowned and said, "Are you so timid? No, the position of the Imperial Concubine needs to be replaced, otherwise who will play opposite me?"

Su Nuan was stunned by Sister Hong's abnormal behavior, but after hearing these words, she sighed at her delicate thoughts.

"Sister Hong, these two favored concubines must be one strong and one weak. The strong one will bully others by taking advantage of her power, while the weak one will seek help from others to fight back."

"Only by doing this can more people be drawn into the game. If anyone wants to mess with someone in the future, you two will be responsible for finding fault and starting a quarrel."

Lu Bayue didn't understand what this meant at all. She asked weakly, "I don't understand. What do you mean? Can you explain it?"

Su Nuan simply pulled over a small table, and Lu Bayue also cleverly brought over two soft chairs.

The three of them sat around a small table, drinking tea and chatting, like little sisters gossiping.

Sister Hong took a sip of tea to ease the pain caused by the movement before speaking.

"Sister, the court is not as simple as you think. The two ministers each have their own opinions and both have their reasons. But the emperor doesn't want to lose face, so he needs to let these two people reconcile privately."

"Then we should do something to make them feel intimidated by our nepotism, even if it's just a superficial reconciliation."

Lu Bayue's eyes were like mosquito coils, and it was obvious that she couldn't digest this news.

Su Nuan explained, "You think your brother married two businessmen's daughters, and your brother just happened to get a good business, but both fathers-in-law took advantage of their daughters' marriages to fight for this business."

"Who do you think your brother should give this business to? Actually, no one is suitable. In the end, the fire will still break out, and your brother will be the one who suffers."

A serious look appeared on Lu Bayue's face. She understood everything when it came to business.

Su Nuan continued, "At this time, your two sisters-in-law started fighting over a trivial matter. They couldn't find your brother to help them, so they had to go home and make a scene."

"Your brother's two fathers-in-law must understand that their son-in-law is deliberately ignoring them, so they will take a step back for their daughter's sake, at least on the surface, and stop arguing."

Lu Bayue was also very clever. Her eyes lit up as she said, "Just let the two of us cause trouble, and then drag the daughters of those two ministers into this, right?"

Sister Hong laughed and said, "Oh, little girl, you are a good businessman. From now on, the money in the palace will be under your management. I am too lazy to do the accounting."

"As for buying and selling things, I'll take care of it. Anyway, the money I get will be left with you, and you can take care of it."

Su Nuan discovered that she had received two great supports, one in literature and one in martial arts, and it would be hard for the Sifang Kingdom not to become powerful.

She asked weakly, "What can I do?"

Sister Hong and Lu Bayue said in unison: "Take care of your health!"

Sister Hong paused and continued, "Give me one of the children. I can't have any more children in this lifetime."

Lu Bayue touched her belly and asked, "How about we become relatives? I think no matter whether I give birth to a boy or a girl, it will always be a good match with the baby in your belly."
