Chapter 109: Don’t Risk Your Life for Anger

Xiao Fuzi nodded quickly: "Your Majesty, everyone in the palace is saying this now. I wonder how many people are staring at us and Concubine Mei."

Xu Lanshan was speechless. She stood there for a long time before sighing, "Forget it!"

The rumors were already spreading, spreading throughout the harem. What else could she do but lie low and let the ridicule spread? There was no way to explain this kind of thing. Explaining would only cover it up, and explaining would only make things worse.

Despite this, Xu Lanshan was still in a bad mood.

He felt even more depressed when he thought of the emperor's weird attitude towards him.

She had long been tired of hearing countless concubines intentionally or unintentionally telling her how favored Concubine Mei was, how the emperor treated Concubine Mei differently, and so on.

And when she looked closely, it seemed so.

Mei Guipin wasn't just pretending; she was truly arrogant, especially arrogant. Even now that her innocence had been cleared, she remained aloof and had no intention of forgiving the emperor, let alone seeking his favor, unlike that Mo Guiren.

But the emperor didn't see Concubine Mo at all, and he might even have forgotten who she was. Instead, he promoted Concubine Mei.

No matter how coldly Concubine Mei treated him, he never got angry.

Today was even more so. He was angry with Concubine Mei and had no place to vent his anger, so he came to me - maybe he also blamed me for disturbing his date with Concubine Mei?

The more Xu Lanshan thought about it, the more discouraged she became, so she simply stopped thinking about it.

Anyway, it’s not a good thing!

She was so angry that she didn't even finish much of her dinner before she went to bed absentmindedly.

I didn't sleep well that night. I felt depressed and empty inside. Everything was wrong, as if something was missing, and as if something was weighing heavily on my heart.

While half asleep and half awake, she had many messy dreams, which were so bizarre and made her already dizzy head even more dizzy.

The next day, Xu Lanshan woke up slowly and was stunned for a long time before she sighed and came back to her senses.

This won't work.

It's okay to just get over the anger yesterday. She is different from others. She is the one who is in charge of the palace fighting system (the life-threatening system). Being angry with the emperor is the same as being angry with her own life, right?

After a long mental preparation, she thought that she had to apologize and coax the emperor back...

It is a lie and it is a bit unfair, but compared with my life, compared with the final victory and glory, what does it matter?

Hmm, so should she apologize today or tomorrow? Would today be too soon? Maybe he's still mad? Would tomorrow... be too late? What if he gets even angrier over it? Or maybe tomorrow isn't the right time either, so how about the day after tomorrow? Or the day after tomorrow?

Xu Lanshan started to feel dizzy again.

It just so happened that she had to pay her respects to the Queen today, so Xu Lanshan simply put all that aside and went to Fengwu Palace to pay her respects first.

When I came to Fengwu Palace today, the atmosphere was a little unusual.

The abnormal feeling is so obvious that you don’t even need to feel it deliberately.

Concubine Feng glanced at Xu Lanshan with concern and said with a smile, "Chen Zhaoyi doesn't look well. Did you not sleep well last night?"

Xu Lanshan did not sleep well last night, but how could she admit it?

"What's wrong with that? It's not that bad. Why does Concubine Feng say that?"

Concubine Feng pursed her lips and smiled, "After all, she's Concubine Chen, the emperor's favor is great, so naturally she doesn't care about anything. If it were anyone else, I'm afraid they would have been so worried that they couldn't eat or sleep. How could they be as relaxed and carefree as Concubine Chen!"

Xu Lanshan raised her eyebrows slightly, her tone slightly cold, "Where did Concubine Feng learn this progress? She speaks in such a profound and abstruse way that I can't understand a single word she says!"

Concubine Feng was angry and a little embarrassed. She sneered, "Whether Zhaoyi really doesn't understand or is pretending not to understand, I dare not say. Anyway, Zhaoyi knows it in her heart!"

Xu Lanshan: "If you don't dare to say it, then shut up."

Concubine Feng: “…”

Concubine Feng's chest heaved rapidly, and she was so embarrassed that she couldn't say anything.

She was even a little dazed. Was the Concubine Chen who made her shut up really the little concubine, concubine, beauty, and gorgeous lady who didn't even dare to speak in front of her before?

Thinking about how her status was rising one after another, and now that it had reached her head and was beginning to show its fangs, Concubine Feng felt jealous, hateful, and happy.

What are you so proud of? Now you have earned the Emperor's dislike!

Let’s see how long she can be so proud!

Concubine Mo sneered. "Chen Zhaoyi is so angry and arrogant today. After all, Chen Zhaoyi has called Concubine Feng "sister" for so long, so why doesn't she care about the sisterly feelings we once had? Chen Zhaoyi has always been kind. Don't learn from those villains who become arrogant when they succeed. Such villains usually don't end up well."

Xu Lanshan was fed up with these people and also realized it.

No wonder the atmosphere was so weird when she came in. She was still wondering, but it turned out that all the weirdness was directed at her.

Those rumors spread throughout the palace yesterday, and today I, the disgraced Concubine Chen, became the object of their ridicule and mockery.

Indeed, without support or background, and without the emperor's favor, what difference is there between me and a palace maid? No wonder they act this way.

Damn it, she was going to get up and slap them in the face right away! They deserved to die of rage because they couldn't stand her and couldn't get rid of her.

Xu Lanshan looked at Mo Jieyu: "If someone treated you with such inexplicable sarcasm, would you be angry? Or does Mo Jieyu just like others treating her sarcastically? That's Mo Jieyu's preference, not mine! I can't stand such sarcasm! Everyone has different temperaments and different ways of doing and speaking. How can you say that you don't care about sisterly love? Mo Jieyu has been coming to me for no reason recently, so why is she blaming me for no reason now? Is Mo Jieyu's sisterly love for me all fake?"

"You! How dare you be so rude to me!"

Xu Lanshan couldn't stand this kind of scolding and was very unhappy. It wasn't her fault. She hadn't suffered any hardship since she came here, and she was quickly favored.

After gaining favor, even though she had previously been submissive in front of these nobles and concubines, no one had ever treated her like this except Concubine Lian. She was too lazy to bother with a lunatic like Concubine Lian.

Apart from this, even the emperor has never done this.

Mo Jieyu's face looks crazy when she transforms!

"I was just explaining to Concubine Mo, how could that be disrespectful? Concubine Mo, please don't accuse me so casually."

Mo Jieyu snorted and sneered, "Chen Zhaoyi is becoming more and more eloquent. I'm waiting to see how long Chen Zhaoyi can continue to be so proud!"

Mo Jieyu felt extremely ashamed when she mentioned how she used to visit her so often. She couldn't help but feel a little afraid that she would impulsively say the words she had said in an attempt to win her over. After all, she was now one who had lost the emperor's favor. Who knew if she would go crazy and talk nonsense?
