Because she watched Chen Yalan practicing martial arts in the imperial garden for a while longer, when she arrived at Su Mengyan's palace, she was already much later than usual.
Fu Liu, led by Bixia, went in to greet Su Mengyan. Su Mengyan glanced at the sky and asked, "Why are you so much later than usual today?"
Fu Liu recalled the time when he saw Chen Yalan in the Imperial Garden, and felt that if the Empress knew about this, she would definitely find it ridiculous.
I was actually late because of a woman practicing martial arts. I felt a little embarrassed when I thought about it.
Then, Fu Liu's eyes dimmed, and she lowered her head and said to Su Mengyan embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, I went to see the scenery for a while today. That's why I'm late. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."
In Su Mengyan's eyes, her behavior looked like she was shy.
"Look at you like this. If you hadn't said you were going to see the scenery, I would have thought you were going to see your sweetheart. Hahaha." Su Mengyan rarely teased Fu Liu.
They just went to see the scenery and arrived a little late. Su Mengyan naturally had nothing to say about this matter.
Seeing that Su Mengyan could still tease him, Fu Liu knew that Su Mengyan didn't take this matter to heart: "Your Majesty, what are you talking about? Where can I go to see my beloved in this harem?"
At night, after taking a shower, Fu Liu lay on his warm bed, washing away all his fatigue. Now Fu Liu felt extremely comfortable.
"Ah, so comfortable!" Fu Liu couldn't help but sigh. How could he have slept on such a nice bed before, and how could he have been treated like this?
In this comfortable environment, Fu Liu soon fell drowsy. However, just when she was half asleep and half awake, she suddenly heard the sound of the door opening.
Rubbing her eyes, Fu Liu looked towards the door. Her room was divided into an inner and outer room, and the door was in the outer room, so she was in the inner room.
So even though she tried her best to see who was at the door, she was still powerless.
"Who is it?" Fu Liu couldn't see what was going on, so he could only ask.
However, no one answered her question. Fu Liu curled up in bed feeling a little scared and couldn't help shaking. Could it be a ghost?
After a while, she heard footsteps, which made her feel relieved. The footsteps at least meant that it was still a person.
Looking at the door nervously, Fu Liu soon knew who the visitor was.
"Your Majesty." Fu Liu was a little surprised and hurriedly got out of bed to support the staggering Situ Yao. The smell of alcohol in his face made Fu Liu realize that the emperor might have drunk a lot today.
At this time, Situ Yao was really a little drunk, his eyes were blurred, staring at the familiar face in front of him.
His lips parted slightly, but no sound came out, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Fu Liu was helpless and just wanted to help him to the bed and let him rest.
After finally putting Situ Yao on the bed, Fu Liuzheng turned around and wanted to pour him a glass of water, but her hand was suddenly grabbed by someone, and the next second she fell onto the bed.
The temperature in the room rose sharply, and heavy breathing and low groans mixed together.
The sunlight shone through the window onto Situ Yao's face. Situ Yao frowned and stretched out his hands to cover his eyes.
He slowly opened his eyes and sat up on the bed. Situ Yao still felt a little uncomfortable in his head from being drunk.
After rubbing his head, Situ Yao looked around the room. It would have been fine if he hadn't looked around, but when he did, Situ Yao was instantly surprised.
Where is this place?
Before Situ Yao could be surprised for too long, he heard a moan from the side.
Situ Yao's movements froze for a moment. He slowly turned his head to the side and saw a woman lying next to him. Upon closer inspection, the woman's appearance was somewhat similar to Su Mengyan.
He actually wanted to help Liu.
This information exploded in Situ Yao's mind. While Fu Liu was still asleep, Situ Yao put on his clothes and left.
Not long after, someone came from the palace and said that the emperor had rewarded Fu Liu with some silk and asked her to make clothes.
Fu Liu was favored yesterday. When people in the palace knew about this, they were all very excited. The Empress had been favoring her for several days in a row, and finally the first person the Emperor thought of was his own master.
Fu Liu's personal maid was a little excited and kept picking out the silks given by the emperor. She picked up a green one, looked at it, put it down, and picked up a pink one.
"Your Majesty, look at how beautiful this color is. Why don't I use this piece of cloth to make you a set of clothes?" The palace maid excitedly took the piece of cloth and gestured on Fu Liu's body.
Fu Liu was not as excited as she was. She looked at the green horse she had put down earlier and said, "Use that green horse to make clothes for me."
After hearing this, the palace maid was a little puzzled. This pink dress was obviously very playful and cute, so why did her master choose green?
Seeing the palace maid's confusion, Fu Liu smiled slightly, held up the green silk with both hands and said, "I thought of having someone embroider some bamboo on it. Green is naturally the best color."
So that's how it was. The maid suddenly realized and immediately put down the cloth in her hand, picked up the green one and tried it on Fu Liu. After taking a look, she thought it was indeed good and immediately praised: "Your Majesty has good taste, not like this servant."
The Emperor's favor for Fu Liu was like a pebble dropped into a calm lake, creating ripples. No one could have imagined that just as the Empress's reign of favor faded, Fu Liu would be the center of attention.
Fu Liu's favor is just like Su Mengyan's favor, some are happy and some are worried. In fact, in the harem, no matter which concubine is favored, it is like this.
However, Fu Liu's identity made this favor something that some people envied.
Xu Chuchu was the one who was most jealous of Fu Liu. She couldn't understand why Fu Liu, who was plain-looking and a commoner, could be favored by the emperor?
Moreover, Xu Chuchu felt disgusted when she thought that Fu Liu had a higher position than her and she had to bow to her when she saw her.
If Fu Liu had seen her before, as a commoner, it would not have been excessive for her to kneel three times and kowtow nine times to a rich lady like her. But now, she actually wanted her to pay her respects. Xu Chuchu naturally could not accept it.
Not only that, Xu Chuchu has always been self-righteous, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have any little thoughts.
After thinking about it, Xu Chuchu felt that since she was also the emperor's woman, it would not be excessive to give the emperor some gifts or show some concern for him.
Xu Chuchu did it right away. She asked the palace maid to go to the imperial kitchen to get a bowl of soup, put the soup in a food box, and then took it to the imperial study.
