"Your Majesty, I have come to you specifically to apologize. I was feeling unwell last night and was worried about the heir's misfortune, so I called the imperial physician to be by my side."
"I never thought that the Empress would suddenly become ill. I was so terrified that I rushed here as soon as I heard the news. I wonder if you are feeling better, Empress?"
Although he said caring words, in fact, his eyes were full of temptation.
Su Lijin understood all of Wei Shu's little tricks without even having to look at them too closely.
She pursed her lips and looked at the woman in front of her calmly, then waved her hand: "It's okay, I'm fine now, and there's no need for Concubine Shu to come here with such fanfare."
"If there really is something wrong, we will naturally call the imperial physician."
"As long as your Majesty is alright, I am relieved."
Wei Shu pretended to breathe a sigh of relief, then reached out and touched her belly.
As if he had thought of something, he spoke to Su Lijin again.
"By the way, Your Majesty, I'm thinking that my unborn child still has no name. I wonder if Your Majesty would be willing to help me choose a name for the child?"
"Naming a child is the responsibility of parents. If you really can't find a solution, you can ask the Imperial Observatory."
The degree of perfunctoriness is already obvious.
Wei Shu was not angry either. She looked at Su Lijin indifferently, then chuckled.
She left Kunning Palace with a smile on her face, but after leaving the palace's bedroom.
He also found someone to spread the news that the queen was jealous of the child in his womb.
He also said that the queen was being perfunctory towards her own children because she was jealous.
This matter became known to everyone in a short time, and it was during the period of recuperation that Su Lijin became a jealous person.
However, Su Lijin usually doesn't like to inquire about gossip, so she never knew about this.
Until one day when she went out of the palace and met Tan Tai Chun, she learned from him the arrangements made by everyone about her.
Instead of being angry, Su Lijin had a sneer on her face.
"That's ridiculous. I knew she would never come to my place if she was fine."
But it doesn’t matter, if I can really be defeated by the rumors of the public.
There is indeed no way to maintain the position of queen.
So Su Lijin didn't take this matter too seriously.
The main purpose of leaving the palace this time was to see the current renovation results of Yaoyue Tower.
If there is anything you are not satisfied with, you can correct it in time.
So the two of them came to the brothel that was originally to be renovated and rebuilt.
Looking at the Yaoyue Tower which had already yielded initial results, a look of satisfaction appeared on Su Lijin's face.
Now, we have the place, but not the people.
But most of the women in brothels were abducted.
She couldn't do such a thing, so she could only go and look for it herself.
In the slums.
Although Su Lijin has greatly reduced her presence and even without wearing any jewelry, she still has a very distinct presence compared to the people here.
She looked around at the dozen or so women who were looking at her with very curious eyes.
Thinking of the purpose of his visit, he said, "I can give you a place to stay. At least I can guarantee that you will have good food and clothing. Although Yaoyue Tower is considered a brothel, I can assure you that I only sell art and not my body! If you are willing, just follow me, okay?"
Several women looked at Su Lijin with hesitation in their eyes.
But when I looked at the hand she stretched out, I didn't know why I always had an urge to trust her.
Finally, with Su Lijin's insistence, they successfully brought more than a dozen women back to Yaoyue Tower.
But she did not force anyone to do anything. She even paid for it herself and hired someone to teach everyone about music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Now everything is ready.
Su Lijin had finished her work, so she decided to go out for a walk.
When she passed by the study, she stopped unconsciously.
Su Lijin walked in and went straight to the owner of the study.
Su Lijin expressed her desire to provide a study room in Yaoyue Tower where people could read and write.
The silver obtained at that time will also be divided according to the amount.
This was the first time the owner of the study had heard of a study in a brothel, and he was somewhat curious.
But no matter what, I am just a manager, and I don't have the final say on these matters.
He hesitated for a moment before speaking to Su Lijin.
"Miss, I still need to ask my boss for instructions on this matter. If possible, please give me some time."
Su Lijin knew that the owner of the study was Guo Tang, so she didn't hesitate much. She agreed and left.
She came to the small river on the street as if taking a walk. She thought the scenery by the river was nice and wanted to enjoy it.
But some different sounds fell into her ears, attracting Su Lijin's attention.
"The queen is bad, the queen is bad, she can't have children and she's jealous of her sisters. The queen is ugly, the queen is ugly, she has a vicious heart and a bad appearance!"
Raising her eyebrows slightly, Su Lijin cast her gaze indifferently on the children on the street who were still singing this song.
There is such a song now?
Maybe she was just in a bad mood, but Su Lijin found the source of the song in a teahouse by asking around.
She looked at the teahouse in front of her which was constantly crowded with customers, then put on a veil, disguised herself as a customer who came to listen to storytelling, and walked in without any suspicion.
After finding a place where there were not many people and sitting down.
She happened to hear that the storyteller was telling her own story.
I don’t know why, but I get a rather strange feeling when I hear other people talking about myself.
Su Lijin pursed her lips, with a helpless look on her face, but didn't say much.
After all, she didn't come here today to cause trouble in front of so many people.
Finally, just when Su Lijin was about to fall asleep due to boredom, the wake-up stick was hit.
Today's story is over.
Su Lijin opened her eyes, came back to her senses from her hazy dream, and watched the storyteller turn around and leave.
She also stood up, put the silver on the table, and followed the storyteller out of the teahouse.
It was not until they arrived at a relatively remote place that Su Lijin suddenly quickened her pace and reached out to hold the shoulder of the man walking in front of her.
The middle-aged man had no chance to resist at all and looked at Su Lijin who suddenly appeared in horror.
There was a look of deep surprise in his eyes.
"If you scream, I can kill you right now. If you don't believe me, you can try it yourself."
Su Lijin pursed her lips. Although there was a smile on her face, the coldness in her eyes was enough to intimidate others.
