Living in the harem, she might be betrayed if she is not careful. If she does not have some dignity, how can she make those concubines in the three palaces and six courtyards listen to her?
An Lirong returned to her residence with a painting.
The person living with her now is Fu Liu, who moved here after having a dispute with Lin Xiangru.
Fu Liu agreed to the same thing as her. The two of them lived together and neither of them looked down on the other.
At this moment, Fu Liu saw An Lirong returning with a painting. Curious, she asked, "Where did An Yingda go? Why did she bring back a painting?"
As he spoke, Fu Liu was about to open the painting in An Lirong's hand, but An Lirong dodged him: "Fu Liu, what are you doing? This is mine, how can you open it without my permission?"
Isn't it just a painting? Is it necessary for An Lirong to protect it so closely?
Fu Liu curled his lips and said indifferently, "It's just a painting. I have plenty of paintings like this. Why do you treasure it so much? If you want it, I'll give it to you."
"You." An Lirong was extremely angry and felt that Fu Liu was just looking for trouble.
"This was a reward from the Empress. How can your painting compare to it?" The palace maid behind An Lirong couldn't bear to watch it anymore and retorted sarcastically.
This time, Fu Liu was extremely surprised.
"What, a reward from the Empress? An agreed, can you tell me how you curry favor with the Empress?" Fu Liu asked seemingly quickly.
If someone else heard this, they would definitely argue with Fu Liu. Unfortunately, she met An Lirong, who just found her boring and didn't want to pay attention to her.
During the time she lived with Fu Liu, she also understood what kind of person Fu Liu was.
So, An Lirong did not answer Fu Liu, but prepared to leave. Fu Liu did not get an answer, so naturally she was unwilling to let her leave.
"Why are you leaving? You can't let anyone tell others about your flattery of the Empress. Just tell me how you flatter her." Fu Liu stood in front of An Lirong, blocking her way.
An Lirong felt helpless. Sometimes Fu Liu was like this. She would get to the bottom of things and would not give up unless she gave her an answer.
Looking at Fu Liu like this, An Lirong knew that with her temper, she would suffer sooner or later in the palace, so she couldn't help but give her some advice.
"Fu Liu, you have to know that we can't completely rely on the Emperor to live in the palace. Sometimes the Emperor can't see what's going on in the palace. And even if he does see it, if you're not his favorite woman, he might not give you a fair shake."
Maybe what An Lirong said was a bit absolute, but based on her many years of experience, she would rather believe it.
Wanliu lives in the center. Since Fuliu moved out, Lin Xiangru has been living alone, so it is inevitable that he feels a little bored.
Before, Lin Xiangru didn’t know who to look for, but now since she met An Lirong, she felt that maybe she could chat with An Lirong from time to time and tell her about her own things.
So, Lin Xiangru decided to go and have a chat with An Lirong. She really liked hearing An Lirong compliment her.
Arriving at An Lirong's residence, Lin Xiangru found the door closed. She knocked, but no one answered. She knocked again, and someone inside replied impatiently, "I'm here! Who are you knocking for? Are you annoying me?"
Fu Liu heard the knock on the door outside and was curious about who would come here at this time. It happened that the palace maids were not here at this time, so Fu Liu could only open the door herself.
"Who is it?" Fu Liu opened the door and asked who was outside.
Hearing this voice, Lin Xiangru felt that it was somewhat familiar, but after the door opened, Lin Xiangru realized that it was more than just familiar. Wasn't this Fu Liu who had argued with him?
Thinking of the dispute with Fu Liu, Lin Xiangru felt anger filling her chest in an instant. Even though the incident had passed, how could she feel willing to accept that Lin Xiangru did not gain any advantage?
The fact that she helped Liu open the door gave Lin Xiangru an opportunity to mock her.
"Oh, I was wondering who it was. Isn't this the famous Fu Liu Da Ying? Oh, why did Fu Liu Da Ying come out to open the door in person? Did she move to a new place and become someone else's maid?" Lin Xiangru mocked Fu Liu mercilessly.
She had finally caught an opportunity, and she didn't want to let Fu Liu go so easily.
When Fu Liu found out that the person in front of the door was Lin Xiangru, he felt as disgusted as if he had eaten a few flies.
Why did I open the door for her? I should have let her wait outside for a while.
"What are you doing here? Do you want to come and fight with me again?" Fu Liu didn't know that Lin Xiangru and An Lirong knew each other. He just thought that she deliberately chased her here because of the dispute and wanted to settle things with him again.
He couldn't help but sneer at Lin Xiangru, thinking that Lin Xiangru was too narrow-minded.
What, deliberately picking a fight with her? After hearing Fu Liu's words, Lin Xiangru felt that she was a little self-righteous, so he said, "You? Is it worth it for me to deliberately chase you and pick a fight? Look at you, you are so unfavored that you have been reduced to opening the door for other concubines like a servant, and you are still here being so self-righteous. What are you so proud of?"
Lin Xiangru's words were a bit harsh. She just couldn't stand Fu Liu's self-righteous look.
What does it mean to be out of favor? Fu Liu was a little angry. If she was to be out of favor, then Lin Xiangru was no better than herself. Where could he go? What qualifications did he have to say that?
"I'll tear your stinky mouth apart and see how you can continue talking nonsense." Fu Liu rushed forward and was about to hit Lin Xiangru.
For a while, the two women started fighting again. Fu Liu was angry that Lin Xiangru looked down on her, and Lin Xiangru also felt that Fu Liu was very presumptuous for daring to attack her.
After all, Lin Xiangru is the second daughter of the Prime Minister's family. She has been spoiled since childhood. After entering the palace, she was treated like this by others. The pride in her heart has long made her unable to accept it. She even wanted to fight with others.
Especially this Fu Liu, who had an argument with her when they lived together. If Situ Yao had not come that time, she would have let Fu Liu know what kind of person she had provoked.
And now she had an argument with Fu Liu. Fu Liu actually dared to attack her. How could she possibly give Fu Liu face?
The noise in the yard caught An Lirong's attention. She opened the door and looked out, and saw two people entangled together.
Isn't this Fu Liu and Lin Xiangru? Why are they fighting? A wave of doubt washed over An Lirong, but the most important thing now was to separate the two.
"What's going on? What are you two doing?" An Lirong ran over to the two of them and tried to pull them apart.
