Fu Liu didn't understand these things, but she also knew the feeling of children worrying about their parents.
"Sister Chen, the emperor is the ruler of a country. No matter what you think, you should give him face. Your actions today were indeed a bit impulsive. If you can be humble to the emperor, maybe he will listen to you." Fu Liu thought for a while and said to Chen Yalan, unable to bear the thought of Chen Yalan being unhappy.
Chen Yalan felt that as long as Situ Yao did not allow her father to go to the battlefield, it would not be difficult for her to surrender.
So after hearing Fu Liu's words, Chen Yalan immediately said that she wanted to see the emperor. Those people were afraid that Chen Yalan would cause trouble, and seeing that Chen Yalan was calm at this time, they reported the news to Situ Yao. After Situ Yao learned about it, he summoned Chen Yalan to the imperial study.
According to Fu Liu's instructions, Chen Yalan entered the imperial study and was very gentle to Situ Yao, not as impulsive as before.
But no matter what she said, Situ Yao did not agree. She wanted to request to go to the battlefield. You have to know that Chen Yalan is a woman in the harem after all. Going to the battlefield has always been a man's thing. If a woman is allowed to fight on the battlefield, how can Situ Yao save his face?
Of course, this wasn't just a matter of face. More importantly, Situ Yao didn't believe in Chen Yalan's ability on the battlefield. Perhaps Chen Yalan's kung fu was indeed good, but leading troops in battle wasn't something that could be achieved simply by having some kung fu.
Even Chen Yalan's conciliatory policy failed to get Situ Yao to agree, which made Chen Yalan even more unhappy.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean? You have promised me that you will not let my father go to war, but why are you going back on your word now?" Chen Yalan could no longer bear it and shouted at Situ Yao.
Situ Yao frowned. What on earth was going on with this Chen Yalan? Just now, she had been so gentle, almost dripping with tenderness, which made him a little unbelievable. But now, it seemed like she had finally exploded, unable to hold back any longer.
But no matter whether Chen Yalan is gentle or irritable, Situ Yao will not agree to Chen Yalan's request.
You can say that he goes back on his word or that he is untrustworthy, he did all this for the country. Otherwise, how could he have the heart to let an old general go to the battlefield?
Didn't he want to select some young generals? But seeing that there were no available people in the court, Situ Yao felt a headache.
Helpless, Situ Yao had Chen Yalan pushed back again. At this moment, Fu Liu was waiting in Chen Yalan's palace for Chen Yalan to bring back good news, but unexpectedly, he saw Chen Yalan being pushed back again.
"What's going on? Sister Chen, didn't you bow your head and submit to the emperor?" Fu Liu looked at Chen Yalan in disbelief. Seeing that she was angry again, he quickly comforted her.
After being comforted by Fu Liu, Chen Yalan couldn't help but complain, "You said, the emperor clearly promised me that he wouldn't let my father go to the battlefield, but now why is he going back on his word? I just listened to you and said all the good and bad things, but he still doesn't want to take back his order."
After hearing what Chen Yalan said, Fu Liu asked her what had happened. Chen Yalan told him everything that had happened.
The truth of the matter made Fu Liu silent for a while, and at this time, Chen Yalan was still muttering and complaining about Situ Yao's faults.
In fact, she was not a person who liked to gossip about others. It was just because this matter concerned her father, and the emperor had promised her and made a promise to her. Now that Situ Yao was the ruler of a country, he went back on his word, so she was naturally a little angry.
Glancing at Chen Yalan who was still complaining, Fu Liu couldn't help but persuade her, "Sister Chen, don't forget that the Emperor is the ruler of a country after all. You and I are both concubines in the harem. There are things we can't control, not to mention the Emperor. The Emperor holds the power of life and death. If you anger him, you will be beheaded in an instant. I know you are not afraid of death, but you must also think about your father and your family."
These words were a bit harsh, and Fu Liu didn't want to tell her, but seeing Chen Yalan's expression, Fu Liu had to say them.
Forget it, even if the words are a little harsh, I have to make her understand these principles.
In fact, Fu Liu, a commoner, could understand this truth, so how could Chen Yalan not know it? She was just overwhelmed for a moment, and now after listening to Fu Liu's advice, she calmed down.
"Sister, I feel bad. Come have a drink with me." Chen Yalan was a little depressed after being hit by Fu Liu's words.
Seeing that Chen Yalan seemed to have listened to what he said, Fu Liu was also somewhat happy. When he heard Chen Yalan say that she wanted to drink, he knew that she wanted to drown her sorrows in alcohol, so he immediately asked the palace servants to get some wine.
Soon the palace servants brought the wine up. Fu Liu placed the cup in front of the two of them and filled it up. Then he raised the cup to Chen Yalan and said, "Sister Chen, I offer you a drink. Although drinking to drown your sorrows only makes you more sorrowful, it's good to be able to relieve your sorrows even temporarily."
After saying that, Fu Liu drank the wine in the glass. Seeing this, Chen Yalan also drank it all.
After drinking a glass of wine, Fu Liu poured another glass for the two of them. However, before he even raised the glass, Fu Liu felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach.
Enduring the discomfort, Fu Liu returned to his palace: "Go, call a doctor, I have a stomachache."
A palace maid was startled and immediately went to invite Xu Chen'an over.
Xu Chen'an felt Fu Liu's pulse, frowned, and asked, "Did you drink alcohol just now?"
Although he didn't say anything, he was thinking in his heart that this noble lady Fu Liu was really something, she was already pregnant and still wanted to drink.
Even if she didn't know, she couldn't drink this strong liquor. Fortunately, she was in good health and it didn't have any major impact at this time.
Fu Liu was a little confused after hearing Xu Chen'an's question: "I drank a little. I've drunk alcohol before, but it didn't cause any problems. How could it be that the drinking was the problem this time?"
She was a little curious because she and Chen Yalan often drank and had fun together and had never felt uncomfortable.
Sure enough, after hearing Fu Liu's words, Xu Chen'an knew that Fu Liu didn't know that she was pregnant. Moreover, this matter should have been a good thing, but for some reason, Xu Chen'an always felt that he couldn't say it directly.
"Your Majesty, please take better care of your health in the future and get enough nutrition. It is best to avoid drinking. After all, you can bear it, but the other person may not be able to." Xu Chen'an thought about it and reminded.
Ah, Fu Liu was stunned for a moment. Another one? What did that mean? However, after just a second, she realized that Xu Chen'an meant that she was pregnant.
