"Your Highness, you're joking. How could I not like something Your Highness gave me?" Concubine Bai just forced a smile, pretending not to hear the teasing. She carefully examined the contents of the box and found a delicate-looking bracelet. "What is this...?"
"Does the Imperial Concubine like it?" Situ Yao didn't say what it was.
The bracelet in the box seems to be made of white jade, each bead is round and has two textures in total, but both of them look like special materials, not like ordinary things?
The gift Situ Yao sent was completely innocent. Concubine Bai naturally didn't believe it. She was about to put it back in the box and study it carefully when she heard him ask with a smile, "Your Highness, don't you like it? Why not try it? I think... this bracelet is very suitable for your Highness today."
Concubine Bai was wearing a plain dress today, which made her look pale.
But it goes well with this bracelet.
Concubine Bai frowned slightly after just one look, but she could only put it on her wrist for the sake of politeness, and said with a forced smile, "It's very beautiful."
"As long as Noble Concubine Bai likes it." Situ Yao curled his lips slightly and said, "I don't have anything else to do, so I'll take my leave first."
Leaving now?
Concubine Bai was extremely surprised. She couldn't help but take a step forward and looked at Situ Yao suspiciously before she said calmly, "Someone send the prince away."
Situ Yao paused slightly, turned around and looked at Concubine Bai and said with a smile: "Look at my memory. I forgot one most important thing, Concubine. The material of this bracelet is very special. I hope you will keep it well."
After a slight pause, Situ Yao said softly, "It's...Meng Lianlian's teeth and bones."
His voice was so soft that even Su Mengyan, who was right next to him, couldn't hear what he said. She just stared at Concubine Bai in a daze for a moment, then covered her mouth and began to retch.
Situ Yao turned around and left, pretending not to see it.
Even though Su Mengyan was full of curiosity, she could only bear it and follow Situ Yao away.
After they walked away, Su Mengyan couldn't help but look at Situ Yao eagerly and asked, "What did you say to the Imperial Concubine? Why did the Imperial Concubine react so strongly?"
After a slight pause, Su Mengyan added a very reasonable condition for her own gossip.
"If you treat the Imperial Concubine like this, will the Emperor come to trouble you later?"
As expected, Situ Yao was not angry at her inquiry. Instead, he smiled with his eyes curved and moved his whole body closer.
The dark dress was almost touching Su Mengyan, and the tip of her nose was filled with the scent of sandalwood. After a while, Situ Yao's voice rang out, low and with a smile: "You... really want to know what I said to Concubine Bai?"
She didn't want to know now.
"I just made Meng Lianlian... into jewelry using the method that Concubine Su mentioned before, and gave it to Concubine Bai." Situ Yao took a step back slightly, as if he had already anticipated something.
After hearing this, Su Mengyan couldn't control herself at all. She stared at Situ Yao with wide eyes and made the same reaction as Concubine Bai, with a wave of dry heaves rising from her stomach.
Is Meng Lianlian really Concubine Bai's person?
"vomit!"
By the time Su Mengyan finally calmed down, half an hour had passed. Situ Yao was very patient at this moment, patting Su Mengyan's shoulder and comforting her with a smile, as if he was not the culprit.
"Why is Concubine Su so excited? Besides, wasn't it you who suggested this matter? I just did what Concubine Su said. Why are you unhappy now?"
At this moment, Su Mengyan felt that all the inappropriate thoughts she had before had been thrown into the trash.
She should have known long ago that she was bewitched by Situ Yao's appearance before, which was because she was out of her mind!
There are no pitiful people in this deep palace. It's just that you step on me and I step on you to climb up.
As the saying goes, lust is like a knife hanging over your head. She has to control herself to save her life!
"Your Highness, I just feel a little...uncomfortable..." Su Mengyan leaned against the wall beside her with a pale face, and forced a smile when she looked at Situ Yao, pretending that she was fine.
Su Mengyan tried her best to regulate her breathing and said, "Your Highness, aren't you worried that the Imperial Concubine will complain to the Emperor? If the Emperor knew about this, he would definitely blame you."
I don’t know if it’s because Su Mengyan looked too pitiful when she spoke, or because she had vomited so much that she no longer had any deterrent effect, but Situ Yao looked like Su Mengyan was worried about him.
He raised the corners of his lips slightly, feeling quite cheerful. "Noble Concubine Bai will definitely not tell Father about this. Heaven and earth know about this, you know about it, I know about it, and Noble Concubine Bai knows about it. Even if Noble Concubine Bai tells Father about it, Father will definitely not believe it. Or..."
Situ Yao suddenly took two steps closer, frightening Su Mengyan so much that she pressed herself against the palace wall behind her. He curled his lips slightly and asked slowly, "Selectwoman Su, are you planning to side with Concubine Bai and report me to the Emperor?"
"Your Highness, please stop joking." Su Mengyan was now so exhausted from vomiting that she didn't even have the energy to deal with Situ Yao. She forced a smile and said, "If the Imperial Concubine knew that this idea was mine, she wouldn't be able to vent her anger even if she skinned me alive. How could she possibly let me live? I know nothing, and I don't want to know anything. I just want to live well and serve Your Highness."
Tsk.
Situ Yao was secretly dissatisfied. He was just trying to scare her with a few words, and she was so impatient to run away?
Did she think she had concealed her little thoughts well?
