Chapter 366: The Favored Harem



It seemed like she was trying to make excuses for herself, but in fact, she was saying that people in Xinjiang often like to marry dancers and don't understand their status.

The envoy from Xinjiang had not expected that such a weak-looking woman could be so eloquent. For a moment, he was speechless.

"Hahaha, Yan'er, the way you made the new envoy speechless really opened my eyes." Driver Yao had a smile on his face.

The envoy's words and expressions today were indeed inappropriate, but he came here with the important task of promoting friendly relations between the two countries, and he could not be too harsh on him. However, he did not expect Su Mengyan to return the favor in the same way.

However, he didn't know that Su Mengyan actually didn't think that the custom of marrying dancers in Xinjiang was bad. On the contrary, she thought it was a very enviable thing to be willing to marry someone regardless of their status just because they fell in love with him.

The reason why I am making sarcastic remarks today is only because the other party has provoked me, so I have no choice but to use this custom, which was considered a bad habit in ancient times, to mock them.

In response to Situ Yao's praise, Su Mengyan just smiled faintly and was not too proud.

She only knew Xinjiang so well because she had the advantage of knowing the future first. Otherwise, she thought that if the original Su Mengyan were here today, she would definitely be speechless.

"Your Majesty, I am the queen of this country. He is so rude to me, so naturally I have to say a few sarcastic words for our country. He came here with the intention of making friends, but he did not give face to the mistress of our country. This shows that he looks down on our country. I will definitely not let him get his wish." Su Mengyan said.

Situ Yao deeply agreed with everything Su Mengyan said. Now the night was gradually getting late, because the two of them rushed back from the banquet together, so they went directly to Su Mengyan's palace.

Situ Yao was a little tipsy after their conversation, and his eyes were blurry as he looked at Su Mengyan. He was the emperor after all, and many people toasted him at the banquet today, and he couldn't refuse, so he had to drink.

"Yan'er, I miss you so much." Situ Yao's vision was a little blurry, but his eyes were fixed on Su Mengyan in front of him.

His somewhat coquettish shouting made Su Mengyan blush. During this period of time, Su Mengyan had many complaints against Situ Yao, but at this moment, those resentments seemed to disappear in an instant.

Even when drunk, Situ Yao was still thinking of himself. The inexplicable emotions he had been feeling for a while were gone in an instant.

Su Mengyan smiled slightly and supported the slightly wobbly person in front of her: "Your Majesty, you have drunk too much. I will ask someone to make you a bowl of sobering soup."

After helping the emperor sit steadily, Su Mengyan turned around and was about to go outside to call for help. However, just as she was about to turn around, she felt her hand being grabbed by another hand.

"Yan'er, I'm fine, let's take a rest!" Situ Yao's speech was a little slurred, but if you look closely, you will find that his eyes are sparkling.

He did drink quite a bit of wine, but it was nothing to him. His current behavior was just an attempt to soften Su Mengyan's heart and stop kicking him out.

During this period of time, whenever he came to sleep at Su Mengyan's place, he was often kicked out. For a dignified emperor like him, being turned away by his own concubine was a humiliation that no one could accept.

However, he actually never felt that this was a shame, but was just a little angry when he was driven away.

Taking advantage of drinking today, he pretended to be drunk and made up his mind to stay here today.

Looking at Situ Yao's somewhat pitiful expression, Su Mengyan couldn't bear it.

Thinking that Situ Yao was already in this state, he would not do anything to her, Su Mengyan thought about it for a moment and agreed.

So Situ Yao, who hadn't hugged his beloved for a long time, slept contentedly all night holding Su Mengyan.

However, Su Mengyan hadn't expected that Situ Yao would stay with her for four or five days straight. Even if she wanted to shut him out, he would swear that he would never touch her. This left Su Mengyan with no choice but to keep him.

All of a sudden, the news that the emperor had stayed in the queen's palace for four or five nights in a row spread, and everyone was talking about it, thinking that this was a unique favor in the harem.

Everyone was talking about it, saying that even Fu Liu, who had just been promoted to a noble lady some time ago, did not receive such favor from the emperor.

Naturally, the Queen's power made some people happy and some worried, and the one who was most worried was Lin Xiaoxiang.

At the beginning, she was in the same group as the queen, but later, for some unknown reason, she inexplicably turned against the queen.

She wasn't afraid of what the queen would do to her if she gained power. It was just that the more favored the queen became, the more powerful her faction would become, and her enemy, Lin Xiangru, happened to be on her side.

This made Lin Xiaoxiang worry whether Lin Xiangru would suddenly jump out and do something to her.

In contrast to Lin Xiaoxiang's fear, Fu Liu went to pay his respects to Su Mengyan day after day, without interruption because of the Queen's gains and losses.

One day, Fu Liu went to pay his respects to the Empress as usual. When he reached the Imperial Garden, he suddenly heard a whooshing sound in front of him.

What was that sound? Fu Liu suddenly became curious about it.

Following the sound, Fu Liu saw a neatly dressed woman practicing swordplay with a long sword in her hand.

After a closer look, Fu Liu discovered that this person was actually Chen Yalan.

People who practice martial arts have always had more sensitive facial senses than others. When Fu Liu arrived, Chen Yalan had already spotted Fu Liu.

Seeing Fu Liu's figure appearing from the path beside her, Chen Yalan stopped what she was doing and saluted Fu Liu.

Fu Liu is now a nobleman, and she is just a concubine. Naturally, Fu Liu's status makes him worthy of her gift.

Fu Liu hurriedly returned the salute, thinking that Chen Yalan would say something to her, but she didn't expect that after Chen Yalan saluted her, she continued to practice her martial arts and no longer paid attention to Fu Liu.

For a moment, a feeling of embarrassment arose in his heart, but Fu Liu had no time to leave. He was fascinated by Chen Yalan's smooth movements.

When she was a child, her parents often told her stories about knights in the martial arts world, and there was no shortage of heroic female knights among them.

Seeing Chen Yalan like this reminded Fu Liu of the heroine in his parents' story, and for a moment he couldn't bear to leave.

She had never imagined that there was such a heroic woman in the harem. She had always thought that these concubines were all ladies from wealthy families, most of them were delicate and frail, as if a gust of wind could blow them down.
