After Lu Xian learned the news, she really didn't want to tell this matter to anyone, but she was also full of curiosity. Could it be that the Queen Mother would allow others to do whatever they wanted in the palace and even covet the position of the Imperial Concubine?
You must know that the Empress is the master of the harem, and the Imperial Concubine is second only to the Empress, just like the prime minister of the dynasty.
And these two people, one is just a small concubine, and the other has no relationship with the emperor at all, but she is dreaming of the position of imperial concubine.
Suddenly, Lu Xian remembered that Fu Liu was the one who had taken refuge with the Queen Mother. Could it be that Fu Liu said that she wanted to be a royal concubine because the Queen Mother had made some promise to her?
Interesting, indeed. Lu Xian's curiosity grew even stronger. She never liked to suppress her curiosity, so she went to Su Mengyan's palace with this curiosity to explore.
"Your Majesty, although I don't have any special abilities, I feel that if I can become a royal concubine, I will be able to share some of the pressure with you so that you won't have to work so hard. But there are so many sisters in the palace, and they are all very powerful. I'm afraid I can't compare to them." After some greetings, Lu Xian spoke tentatively.
Oh, Lu Xian meant to use her for her own benefit? Su Mengyan couldn't believe it. From her understanding of Lu Xian, she knew that Lu Xian was not someone she could easily control.
So after thinking it over again and again, Su Mengyan still didn't dare to use Lu Xian easily, but she still had to express her response to her words.
"So, sister, you also want to be a royal concubine. You also know that I am only the queen and cannot make decisions for the emperor. However, I can still say a few good words for you in front of the emperor." After saying that, she looked at Lu Xian sincerely.
When Lu Xian heard this, she immediately wanted to refuse. She was just testing the waters; in reality, she didn't want to be too involved with the emperor. If her family hadn't sent her here, she wouldn't have been willing to participate in this selection.
Everyone thinks that entering the palace as a concubine is a glorious thing, but Lu Xian doesn't think so. She thinks that it would be best if she could stay with the person she loves for her whole life, and the position of emperor is destined not to give her what she wants.
"I was just talking nonsense, Your Majesty, please don't take it to heart." Lu Xian had no choice but to smile and say that she was joking.
Then, she immediately changed the subject. Su Mengyan didn't want to continue talking about the imperial concubine with her, so she changed the subject along with her.
"I'm sorry to bother you here today, Your Majesty. I remember that I have some things to do in the palace, so I'll take my leave now." After saying that, Lu Xian bowed and took her leave.
As for Fu Liu, after seeing off Situ Yao, she received the imperial edict promoting her to a noble.
"Oh my God, our queen has been promoted to a noble lady." The little palace maid shouted exaggeratedly.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty." The moment the imperial edict arrived, the entire palace was in an uproar, and even Fu Liu herself was very excited.
"Rewards, everyone will get rewards."
She had never thought that the emperor would come to her palace yesterday, and she had never thought that she would become a noble lady overnight.
All this was like a sudden surprise, making Fu Liu so excited that he couldn't control himself.
"I heard that you have been promoted to a noble lady. That's really amazing. Congratulations." Lin Xiaoxiang immediately rushed over to congratulate her when she heard the news that Fu Liu was promoted to a noble lady.
Her relationship with Fu Liu was getting better and better, and she sincerely congratulated Fu Liu. But while she was happy for Fu Liu, she also admired his ability even more.
Fu Liu had adjusted his mood as early as when Lin Xiaoxiang congratulated him, and looked calm.
The purpose of doing this is to make Lin Xiaoxiang think that he can easily improve his position.
"Do you know why I was promoted to a noble so quickly?" Fu Liu said to Lin Xiaoxiang earnestly.
Lin Xiaoxiang was momentarily puzzled by this. She didn't know what it meant. Was it not Fu Liu's own ability that allowed her to rise so quickly?
Seeing Lin Xiaoxiang's puzzled expression, Fu Liu chuckled and said, "Don't you realize that the Queen and I look very similar?"
After this reminder, Lin Xiaoxiang really remembered this matter: "Do you mean..."
No way, is it really as I thought? Is it because Fu Liu has a face similar to Su Mengyan that he got his current position?
"Yes, that's what I mean. It's because of this face that I have everything I have now. If you want to win the emperor's favor, just study the queen's every move carefully, and I think the emperor will definitely like you." Fu Liu told the truth, but she didn't feel embarrassed at all, as if she felt that all this was as it should be.
Is it really possible to imitate the Queen's every move? Lin Xiaoxiang's heart was filled with doubts.
"Would I lie to you? You have to know that the Queen is the first woman the Emperor loves, so he has always liked people who have similarities with the Queen. Am I not a living example?" Fu Liu continued to persuade Lin Xiaoxiang.
Yes, there is a living example in front of me. Even if I fail, it is just a waste of some time.
Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoxiang made up his mind that he must ask for Su Mengyan's forgiveness, go to her side and learn her every move.
"What, Lin Xiaoxiang is here?" Su Mengyan was a little surprised when she first heard the news, but she reacted in an instant. The smile on her face flashed away, and when Lin Xiaoxiang came in, she showed a hint of impatience.
"Greetings, Her Majesty." Lin Xiaoxiang said with a flattering smile, thinking that one should not hit a smiling person, and the Queen Mother should not be in a bad mood with her behavior.
She didn't expect Su Mengyan to act out of the ordinary. She just snorted coldly, "Ms. Lin, how come you have time to come here? Back then, Miss Lin couldn't wait to follow Concubine Fu Liu. Oh, no, now she's a noble lady."
How could the Empress be so petty? Lin Xiaoxiang wasn't sure if she could imitate the Empress, would the Emperor really not hate her?
But thinking about Fu Liu's words, she decided to continue studying.
"Your Majesty, what are you talking about? It was all a misunderstanding. I'm here today to apologize to Your Majesty." Lin Xiaoxiang continued to say with a smile, but her eyes were always fixed on Su Mengyan, watching her every move, every frown and smile.
This was her idea today. She used the excuse of apologizing to observe Su Mengyan's actions and practice more.
