In Lianchu Palace, Xu Chuchu and Lu Xian were sitting face to face. In a small stove on the table, a teapot was puffing.
Xu Chuchu gently threw a handful of tea leaves in and continued stirring: "In this harem, you are the only one who can make tea for me so calmly."
She only has this one good friend in the harem, so naturally no one else has the blessing to drink the tea she brews herself.
Hearing her words, Lu Xian immediately laughed: "In that case, I am still very lucky!"
As the two of them were sipping tea and chatting sweetly, a palace maid came in from outside: "Your Majesty, someone is coming over there, Concubine Li."
These words startled Xu Chuchu, and the tea in her hand spilled slightly, scalding her so much that she almost dropped the cup.
After adjusting her mood, Xu Chuchu put the teacup on the table, wiped her hands with a handkerchief, and asked the palace maid, "Did she say what she came here for?"
Although she seemed to ask this question calmly, she actually knew how fast her heart was beating.
Ever since the deaf-mute palace maids and eunuchs recovered from their illness, the matter had not been investigated further. Xu Chuchu also thought that the matter had come to an end, but she did not expect that Li Eimi would suddenly ask her palace maids to come.
The palace maid asked a question, so when Xu Chuchu said this, she immediately replied: "Your Majesty, Li Changzai wants to invite you to meet her by the lotus pond."
After asking the palace maid to leave, Xu Chuchu frowned.
What did she want from me all of a sudden? Did she know that I wanted to poison her? What should I do?
Seeing Xu Chuchu's expression, Lu Xian was a little confused: "What's wrong with you? It's just an invitation from a new palace maid, why are you so hesitant?"
Although the relationship between the two was good, Xu Chuchu would not tell Lu Xian that she wanted to harm Li Emi, who was speechless, so she just smiled and said, "You also said that she is a new concubine in the palace. It is precisely because of this that she invited me so suddenly that I feel a little unsure of what to do."
After she said this, Lu Xian began to understand a little. Yes, she was a new concubine who had just entered the palace, and no one knew who she belonged to. She didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing to suddenly invite her. No wonder Xu Chuchu was hesitant.
After thinking for a while, Lu Xian said, "In that case, why don't I go with you."
With Lu Xian's words, Xu Chuchu naturally felt relieved. No matter what, Li Emi couldn't attack her openly.
So, the two of them left Lianchu Palace side by side, and came to the lotus pond where Li Eimi had agreed to meet them, hand in hand.
In the pavilion beside the lotus pond, Li Eimi sat on a stool. The breeze blew, making her clothes flutter, making her look particularly beautiful.
From a distance, she saw a group of people walking along a small path. With a slight curl of her lips, she knew that Xu Chuchu would definitely come.
However, when she got closer, she suddenly realized that Xu Chuchu was not alone. There was a dignified and elegant woman standing side by side with Xu Chuchu.
Li Ai Mi was a little surprised by the sudden appearance of this person, but it was only for a moment, and she calmed down. When the two people came to her, she stepped forward and greeted them, and the three of them sat down in the pavilion.
Because Li Ai Mi was a new concubine in the palace, and Xu Chuchu had some unspeakable secrets with her, the atmosphere was a little quiet for a while.
Glancing at Xu Chuchu and then at Li Emi, Lu Xian smiled slightly, "They say the new concubine in the palace has the aura of a fairy. Now it seems that those people are just exaggerating."
Lu Xian had been in the palace for some time, so her eyes were naturally very sharp. So she could tell at a glance that the relationship between Xu Chuchu and Li Eimi was not very good.
So at this moment she also understood that Li Aimi was probably an enemy rather than a friend, so she dared to speak like this and did not give Li Aimi any face at all.
Hearing her words, the two people beside her were at completely different extremes. Xu Chuchu chuckled: "Sister Lu, you really are very picky with your mouth."
She knew that Lu Xian said this to provoke Li Aimi, to let Li Aimi know that she was not someone she could bully.
Of course, from beginning to end, Li Yuanmi never bullied her. Instead, she wanted to frame Li Emi but failed.
But what does it matter?
As Xu Chuchu scoffed, Li Aimi clenched her hands into fists beneath the table. This damn woman, what right did she have to speak of her like that?
You have to know that before Li Eimi entered the palace, she had experienced more than ten years of life, and no one who saw her did not praise her beauty as being like a fairy. However, this person who had only met her a few times actually slandered her appearance in such a way.
Although all the women who could enter the palace were extremely beautiful, it did not mean that my face could not stand out among them.
At least in Li Emi's eyes, the appearance of both Xu Chuchu and Lu Xian is not worth mentioning.
However, this woman, whom he looked down upon, actually said that her face was exaggerated by others.
Thinking of this, Li Ai Mi couldn't help but sneer: "What are you talking about, sister? The women in the harem are all different, and there are countless beauties. If you are not a beauty, how can you catch the emperor's eye?"
She originally thought that after she said this, Lu Xian would be suppressed by her, after all, she had already brought up the emperor. However, what she didn't expect was that Lu Xian not only did not remain silent, but laughed instead.
"Sister, you are wrong. There are many women in the harem, but not all of them can catch the emperor's eye. Some of them were just forced in by their families." After saying this, Lu Xian sneered and glanced at Li Eimi as if to say that she was the woman who was forced in by her family.
Li Eimi didn't expect Lu Xian to be so eloquent. She was so angry that she couldn't vent it.
Originally, she wanted to meet Xu Chuchu today to give this person a hard time, or even try to use this person for her own benefit. However, she didn't expect Lu Xian to suddenly appear and disrupt all her plans.
It would have been fine if her plans had been disrupted, but Lu Xian actually mocked her again and again, saying that she was not worthy of the emperor's eyes.
This is not the most infuriating thing. What is even more infuriating is that she has not yet established a firm foothold in the harem, and she cannot fall out with these two people at this moment.
Therefore, Li Aimi could only suppress her anger and casually exchange a few words with the two of them. Seeing that Li Aimi didn't seem to have anything important to say, Xu Chuchu and the others didn't intend to say anything more to her. After a few words, they got up and left.
