Lu Xian knew that at this moment the only way for her to clear herself of suspicion was to explain these things clearly.
"Empress, I know a little about the rumors outside. I know that this matter is related to me. I do not deny it. I did say that it was nothing special." Lu Xian did not think of denying it.
She was denying what she had said, and that was the fact. If she denied it now and it was revealed later that she had indeed been told such things, she would never be able to clear herself even if she jumped into the Yellow River, so she did not want to deceive Su Mengyan at this time.
What's more, although she said it was nothing special, she was referring to Li Eimi, not the Queen.
When Su Mengyan heard her admit that she had indeed said such words, her anger immediately rose: "You think I am nothing special, then you must have a problem with me. What do you think I did wrong?"
As the queen, she shared her husband with many women, which is still a very shameful thing for her as a modern person.
Even so, she still devoted herself to these women. If she were in modern times, she would be considered the modern Virgin Mary.
But even so, there are still people who think that she is not good enough and does not deserve to be the Queen. If she did not have some feelings for Situ Yao, how could she be willing to suffer so much?
Lu Xian was a little confused when Su Mengyan gave her a cold scold. She only heard rumors spreading outside, but she didn't know that the other protagonist of the rumors was the Queen.
"What does Your Majesty mean? I don't think Your Majesty has done anything wrong. I think Your Majesty is fair and very suitable for this position." Lu Xian immediately said to Su Mengyan.
Haha, Su Mengyan sneered. She had never seen such a shameless person. He said that he was nothing special outside, but said in front of her that he was fair and just.
She was almost laughing with anger. Just as she was about to release her anger, Bixia suddenly appeared: "Your Majesty, Li Changzai requests to see you."
What did Li Ai Mi want to see her about? As the Queen, she couldn't care less about her own selfish desires and punish Lu Xian when a concubine came to see her at this time, so she asked Bixia to bring Li Ai Mi up.
At this time, Lu Xian was still kneeling on the cold ground.
Following Bixia's back, Li Eimi entered the Feng Palace Hall and saw a familiar figure kneeling on the ground. The corners of her mouth rose slightly and then immediately smoothed out.
She greeted Su Mengyan politely and pretended not to see Lu Xian, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Empress, you have to make the decision for me! I know that I am just a concubine who has just entered the palace and cannot be favored by the emperor, but I cannot be looked down upon for no reason." As she said this, she wiped her tears from her face with her handkerchief.
After hearing this, Su Mengyan asked her what was going on.
She wiped her tears and then looked at Lu Xian beside her in surprise: "Sister Lu, why are you here too?"
Then she turned her gaze to Su Mengyan: "Empress, could it be that you already know what Sister Lu did, so you are punishing her to vent your anger?"
What she said was incomprehensible, and not only Su Mengyan, but even Lu Xian was a little confused.
"What's going on?" Su Mengyan didn't have the energy to talk nonsense with her, so she asked her to explain the situation clearly.
"Empress, do you know that Sister Lu looks down on me because she is an elder in the palace?" As she said that, Li Eimi told her everything that happened in the pavilion beside the lotus pond that day.
It was not until this time that Su Mengyan realized that Lu Xian really had not said anything about her, and the person who had said that before was only Li Emi.
Looking at Li Eimi again, although she looked very aggrieved, there was a hint of pleasure in her eyes when she looked at Lu Xian. Su Mengyan knew that she was being used by Li Eimi.
She never thought that she would be used by a concubine who had just entered the palace.
But after thinking about it more carefully, she realized that Li Eimi had just entered the palace not long after all, and she was not very clear about how deep the water in the harem was.
In addition, Xu Chuchu had attacked her before but did not receive the punishment she deserved, which probably made Li Emi feel a little dissatisfied. But at the same time, it also made her understand that it would not be so easy to deal with the old people in the harem by her own strength, so she thought of using the opponent's force to fight back, and made her own plan.
I have to say that Li Emi's idea is very clever, but for someone like Su Mengyan, since she already understands it, she will naturally not be happy. After all, no one likes to be used by others.
Lu Xian, who was standing by, naturally understood the whole story immediately when Li Eimi recounted the whole story from beginning to end, combined with the rumors in the harem. She was a smart person.
So that's how it was. She hadn't expected that she would be tripped up by a newcomer. And she actually fell hard.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but narrow her eyes when she looked at Li Eimi. She thought this was someone who was easy to deal with, but she didn't expect that he was not a pushover either.
Looking at the exchange of glances between the two people, one standing and one kneeling, Su Mengyan knew that both of them were still angry with each other.
Under normal circumstances, Su Mengyan would have made the decision for them long ago, but Su Mengyan was being used by others at this time and felt dissatisfied.
So, she looked at the two people in front of her and said, "Okay, I understand this matter. Lu Da Ying was indeed wrong in this matter, but I have already punished her, so let's just leave it at that."
She really didn't want to get involved in this matter anymore. She also had other things to do, so she ordered them to leave.
After the two people left, she sat on the chair and pondered for a long time.
"Biyun, take this plate of chestnut cake to An Da Ying." After a while, Su Mengyan called Biyun over and said this to her.
Biyun took the bowl of chestnut cake next to her, put it in the food box, and carried it all the way to An Lirong.
"An Da Ying, this is the chestnut cake sent to you by the Queen." Biyun only said this.
Chestnut cake? An Lirong was stunned for a moment, but then she reacted and immediately took the chestnut cake. She knew that Su Mengyan would not give her anything out of the blue if there was nothing wrong.
But Su Mengyan asked her personal maid to bring her this plate of cakes, which meant that she had something to discuss with her, but she didn't want to say it directly, so she used this plate of cakes to let her pass.
