Seeing this, the palace maid couldn't help but say, "The name 'Crown Princess' is really beautiful, and she is also beautiful. The key is that the Crown Princess is magnanimous and amiable. You can tell at a glance that she can be the queen."
She was deliberately flattering him. Rumor had it that the Crown Prince was going to succeed him, so wouldn't the Crown Princess be the future Empress? She was sure to please Su Mengyan by saying this.
Another maid also echoed, "Yes, if Your Majesty becomes the Queen, it will be a blessing for our country!"
Su Mengyan's expression grew slightly more serious. She didn't take these words to heart. Instead, she said to the two of them, "Stop talking nonsense. Where is this place? Who is the Queen? You can't just make up stories like that."
The two palace maids quickly covered their mouths. Yes, this was the Eastern Palace, but if what they said just now was heard by someone with ulterior motives and spread out, ten lives would not be enough.
"Your Highness, we know we were wrong." The two of them knelt down and admitted their mistakes.
Su Mengyan had no intention of punishing them, she just wanted to tell them that not everything can be said in the palace.
So, after seeing that the two people realized their mistakes, Su Mengyan did not continue to let them kneel. Just as she was about to let them stand up, she heard someone talking.
"The Crown Princess is so arrogant!" This person was Cui Mixue who came to see Situ Yao.
Turning around, Su Mengyan narrowed her eyes at the person slowly approaching. Why was Cui Mixue here? Did she hear what she had just said?
"I, the Crown Princess, don't need Miss Cui to tell me what I'm so proud of, right?"
Cui Mixue had no attitude of asking for favors at all. She looked at the two palace maids kneeling on the ground, chuckled and said, "What the Crown Princess said is true. It's just that I saw the Crown Princess punishing a servant when I arrived, so I just said it casually."
After saying this, he turned to the two palace maids and said, "What did you two do to make the Crown Princess behave like this?"
She was deliberately trying to sow discord. She had just heard what the three of them said outside, so she was very dissatisfied with what Su Mengyan had done.
Others flatter you and say you are the future queen, but you are very good at pretending and tell them seriously to stop talking nonsense.
To Cui Mixue, this was just Su Mengyan being pretentious. If she didn't want to be the queen, why would she marry the prince and become the prince's consort?
Su Mengyan asked the two palace maids to get up and serve tea.
The two knew that Su Mengyan had deliberately sent them away to prevent Cui Mixue from knowing what had just happened. After all, Cui Mixue was the future consort of the Seventh Prince, and her words still carried a certain weight.
At this time, even if Cui Mixue wanted to make a fuss about this matter, she no longer had the opportunity.
The two people entered the hall. Su Mengyan sat firmly in the main seat, and Cui Mixue had no choice but to sit below. Looking at the main seat, Cui Mixue thought to herself that that was originally her seat.
Su Mengyan asked Cui Mixue to come in, sit down, and serve tea, but she did this because she was afraid of being criticized for not knowing how to entertain guests as the Crown Princess.
"Cui Mixue, we don't have anything to say, right?" Su Mengyan was very curious about Cui Mixue's sudden visit.
She didn't know Situ Yao's plan, and at this time, she didn't know that Situ Zhao had already been imprisoned.
If she knew this, she wouldn't be curious about what Cui Mixue was doing here.
On the other hand, Cui Mixue, who should have come to ask for help, acted condescendingly and had no awareness that she had already been defeated.
"Of course. I didn't come here today to look for you." If she really didn't know where to find Situ Yao, why would she come here to wait?
Oh? He's not here to see me. Su Mengyan was stunned. There were only two masters here, me and Situ Yao. If he wasn't here to see me, then he must be here to see Situ Yao. He couldn't be here to see that little palace maid or eunuch!
"Since you are not here to see me, the Crown Princess, then please come in!" Pretending not to understand, Su Mengyan ordered the guest to leave.
"Heh." Cui Mixue sneered, "What qualifications do you have to ask me to leave? I'm here to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"He's not here. Either tell me or get out." Su Mengyan didn't care about hospitality at this time. Anyway, to her, Cui Mixue was not a guest.
Su Mengyan was firm in her attitude. Cui Mixue hesitated for a moment, thinking again and again before speaking: "Okay, I'm here to seek cooperation with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Huh? Three question marks popped up in Su Mengyan's head. She must have heard correctly! What did Cui Mixue say? Collaboration? Was she out of her mind?
Looking at Cui Mixue, Su Mengyan felt as if she was looking at a big fool.
"What are you looking at?" Cui Mixue felt uneasy when she was stared at. She was not afraid of Su Mengyan, but she felt that Su Mengyan looked at her strangely.
"Do you think it's possible for us to cooperate with you?" Su Mengyan retracted her gaze and snorted coldly.
Although she didn't know why Cui Mixue wanted to cooperate with Situ Yao, she was sure that something must have happened that was unfavorable to Cui Mixue.
Cui Mixue was anxious to save her life and was afraid that Su Mengyan would drive her out. Although she was very rebellious at first, she now understood that Su Mengyan's bad attitude could represent Situ Yao.
Thinking of this, Cui Mixue said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince can put Situ Zhao in jail, and I can help you put him to death."
After all, as a collaborator, Cui Mixue knows many things that others don't know.
It turns out that Situ Zhao was arrested, no wonder Cui Mixue wanted to cooperate.
Su Mengyan immediately interpreted the message in Cui Mixue's words and laughed. If Situ Yao could put Situ Zhao in jail, how could he not be able to kill him?
"Hahaha, should I say that you are a man of insight? Or should I say that you are an ungrateful and ungrateful person?" Su Mengyan said in a sarcastic tone.
She looked down on people like this. When things got stirred up and something happened, they would just run away. Not only would they run away, they would also step on you.
"What do you mean?" Feeling that what Su Mengyan said was not good, Cui Mixue's face turned cold.
"What I mean is, no matter what abilities you have, we don't need them. So you should just wait to be buried with Situ Zhao!" Su Mengyan expressed her thoughts.
Knowing you're no longer capable of fighting us, you want to abandon the dark and join the light? Is that even possible? Why didn't you leave a way out when you assassinated me?
I will not offend others if they do not offend me. Su Mengyan is not the kind of person who seeks to kill everyone. It's just that Cui Mixue is a person with wolfish ambitions and always does things to the extreme.
Therefore, Su Mengyan didn't want to give her another chance. She knew that if she gave Cui Mixue a chance this time, she would let her live.
It's like finding yourself an ungrateful person. You never know when she will suddenly jump out and bite you.
