"Take the fish away." Situ Yao said considerately.
Su Mengyan returned to her seat at this time: "I am sorry that Your Majesty has lost his appetite. It is my fault."
However, Situ Yao directly held her hand, his distress evident in his words: "Yan'er, you have worked hard during this period."
The days passed by uneventfully. One night, a man who covered himself tightly suddenly entered Su Mengyan's palace.
However, there was no panic in the palace, as if they had already realized that such a person would come.
"You're here. The Queen has been waiting for you for several days. Come in quickly with me." Bixia said to the man.
The man just nodded without saying a word and followed Bixia into Su Mengyan's room.
"How's it going?" Su Mengyan asked the person behind her while taking off the earrings from her ears.
"Your Majesty, I will follow your instructions. I have made a special effort to make friends with Lin Xiaoxiang, and now she trusts me very much." The man took off his cloak and bowed to Su Mengyan. It turned out that this man was none other than Fu Liu.
Bixia took Fuliu's cloak and quietly left the room. Although she was Su Mengyan's personal maid, she knew that some things were not her place to get involved.
Su Mengyan did not stop her movements and still did not look at Fu Liu directly.
"Get up. If you do this well, I will naturally reward you. But don't forget, if you really want to be a royal concubine like Lin Xiaoxiang and try to frame me, then I will definitely make you pay for it." Su Mengyan knew that when it comes to interests, some people often forget their original intentions.
Fu Liu jumped from a commoner to a woman in the harem, and this gap allowed her to experience the benefits of power.
Then she would want to hold on to this power tightly, and even want to climb higher. But Su Mengyan wanted Fu Liu to know that she could give Fu Liu greater power, but at the same time, she could also make Fu Liu lose his reputation and suffer a complete defeat.
And it all depends on how Fu Liu chooses.
Fu Liu had already stood up, but upon hearing Su Mengyan's words, she was about to kneel down. However, Su Mengyan saw her movements in the mirror and said, "You don't have to do that. I just want you to know what will happen to those who don't share my loyalty."
His half-squatting body stiffened for a moment, but the next second he straightened his back.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty. Fu Liu will certainly obey Your Majesty's will. Everything is based on Your Majesty and I will never go against Your Majesty's wishes." During the time he entered the palace, Fu Liu also learned a lot of survival skills, so he knew what to say at this moment.
Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, Su Mengyan turned around and said, "I always trust people when I employ them, and I don't employ people if I don't trust them. I just want to give myself some protection."
After saying that, Su Mengyan called Bixia in again.
When Bixia came in, she was holding a tray in her hand.
"Fu Liu Changzai, this is a reward from the Queen." Bixia smiled as if the reward from Su Mengyan was a great gift.
Maybe this is what is called a slap in the face followed by a sweet date. At this moment, Fu Liu could not refuse Su Mengyan's reward and had to accept it.
"In that case, I thank the Queen for her reward."
This matter came to an end. A few days later, after Situ Yao had dinner, he remembered that he had not been to Su Mengyan for a while. Coincidentally, the eunuch asked him where he was going to rest today.
"I have neglected the Empress lately. Why don't I go to the Empress's palace today?"
Situ Yao made up his mind and set off for Su Mengyan's palace.
However, he did not expect that after finally coming to Su Mengyan's palace, he was actually turned away.
"Your Majesty, I am pregnant and have been feeling very unwell recently. I'm afraid I cannot serve you. You should go somewhere else." Su Meng Yanru said yes.
Her face was full of respect. But this still made Situ Yao a little unhappy. Did he come to her just for that kind of thing? Knowing that she was pregnant, how could he do such a thing? Isn't it too lewd and immoral?
But Su Mengyan didn't listen to his explanation at all and told him to find someone else. Situ Yao is now the emperor, but he is still the same as before and cannot behave differently in front of Su Mengyan.
This made him very angry, so he just threw his sleeves and left.
What's going on with Yan'er? Why did she shut me out?
The eunuch beside him carefully observed Situ Yao's expression, but he could not see anything, so he asked: "Your Majesty, where do you think we should go next?"
"Your Majesty, the emperor has left." Bixia reminded the person standing there watching the emperor's back.
And Su Mengyan just hummed lightly: "Well, let's go see where the emperor is going today."
Su Mengyan's action made Bixia a little confused, and she didn't know what she meant.
But she could only obey Su Mengyan's orders and inquire about the emperor's whereabouts tonight.
After a while, Bixia returned with news from the emperor.
"Your Majesty, Bixia has heard that the Emperor is staying at Empress Fuliu's palace tonight."
Seeing Su Mengyan remain silent, Bixia simply asked the question in her heart: "Your Majesty, if you hadn't rejected the emperor, he would be here. But why did you reject him?"
Su Mengyan smiled slightly: "I am pregnant, how can I keep the emperor in the palace? If the news gets out, what will people say?"
"So that's how it is. But now that the emperor has gone to Fuliu's palace, won't the queen feel uncomfortable?" Bixia thought.
As if she understood what Bixia was thinking, Su Mengyan continued, "Actually, there's nothing wrong with this. The fact that the Emperor went to Fuliu Palace at least proves that he hasn't changed his mind about me."
What was the logic behind this? Bixia was confused for a moment. But when her eyes met Su Mengyan's face, she seemed to understand something in an instant.
Yes, why didn't she think that Fu Liu and the Queen's face were somewhat similar, and the Emperor thought of Fu Liu at this time, wasn't it because of this reason?
On the other side, Lu Xian heard some things from Xu Chuchu and became curious.
It turned out that over this period of time, the relationship between Fu Liu and Lin Xiaoxiang had become increasingly close, and they even called each other sisters, and occasionally jokingly called each other "Royal Concubine", which happened to be heard by Xu Chuchu when she passed by.
Although Xu Chuchu considers herself a lady from a noble family, gossip is a woman's nature, and she is naturally not immune to it.
But there were very few people in the harem who were on good terms with her, so she thought of Lu Xian. Lu Xian's personality made her very confident that Lu Xian would not tell this matter to others.
And even if she said it, it would not be a big deal, after all, this matter has nothing to do with her.
