Chapter 261: The Village Beauty Who Falsely Claims Favors in a Farming Story (8)
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and sweep the floor. The housekeeper said that if you don't sweep the place clean, you won't be able to eat today." The housekeeper said fiercely.
Xiang Zhu mistook the fallen flowers on the ground for Su Yu and swung the broom hard in anger.
She's so mad! She's so mad!
When she turns things around in the future, that woman will be taught a lesson sooner or later!
Su Yu glanced casually at the people in the corridor, then retracted her gaze and glared: "I am the prince's savior, he can't do this."
Chunmei laughed in her heart and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Whether it can be done or not is up to the prince to decide."
A big shot like the prince can praise you to the sky if he likes you, and just give you orders if he doesn't like you. If you really become ungrateful, who can stop you?
The little girl from the country is so ignorant that she thinks she can live a carefree life just by saving her life?
When the day comes when all this kindness has worn off, that will be the time for her to cry.
Su Yu looked confused, as if this was the first time she had encountered such a thing and she didn't know what to do.
"What should we do then?"
Chunmei's eyes flashed and she took the bait.
"So you have to listen to me, young lady. I have been in the palace since I was very young, so I know more about many things than you do."
Su Yu tugged at the corner of her clothes: "Really?"
"Of course it's true. Miss, think carefully. Since you entered the palace, has the prince not visited you for a long time?"
Looking at the maid who was making plans in her mind, Su Yu raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and listened to what she had to say first. If it would help with the task, there would be no harm in acting with her.
Su Yu pursed her lips nervously: "Yeah."
"Girl, don't you understand yet?"
Su Yu was at a loss: "What do you understand?"
Chunmei lowered her voice and said, "You should find a chance to meet the prince. In this mansion, everyone depends on the prince for their livelihood. Only when the prince takes you seriously can your position in the mansion be stable."
Su Yu's eyes lit up slightly. She was worrying about how to find an opportunity to meet the male protagonist. It was like a pillow was given to her just when she was sleepy.
"To see the prince?"
Chunmei nodded, carefully looked around, and leaned close to Su Yu's ear to ask, "Miss, have you thought about what you are going to do in the future?"
Su Yu shook her head in confusion.
Chunmei whispered, "Are you planning to stay in the palace like this forever without any status?"
She knows the answer to this question.
Su Yu frowned and retorted: "I have a title. I am the prince's savior."
Chunmei: “…”
Knowing that you are my savior, there is no need to emphasize it all the time. I have heard the word "savior" every other sentence so many times that my ears are callused.
"I know, but have you ever thought about it, young lady? The prince will definitely marry a princess in the future. The prince can allow you to live in the mansion, but can the princess? No woman wants her husband to have other women in his backyard."
Su Yu thought it made sense: "Then what should I do?"
Chunmei's voice was even lower, and she whispered in Su Yu's ear: "You have to seduce the prince and try to make him fall in love with you, so that you can stay in the mansion with a legitimate reason."
Su Yu pinched her thighs until they were blue before she could hold back her laughter.
Isn't this her mission? A perfect reason was delivered to her door. If it weren't for her image, she would have wanted to hold Chunmei's face and kiss her and call her darling.
Su Yu looked hesitant.
Chunmei struck while the iron was hot: "Think about the benefits of staying in the mansion, endless food to eat, endless beautiful clothes to wear, young lady, are you willing to be sent back to the countryside?"
Su Yu shook her head vigorously: "I don't want to!"
"That's right."
After a long while, Su Yu seemed to be persuaded: "You are right, I want to stay."
Chunmei smiled and said, "You are wise, young lady."
Her eyes lingered on Su Yu's face: "Don't worry, young lady, with your looks, and the fact that you are the prince's savior, as long as you are willing, the prince will definitely not refuse."
Su Yu grabbed Chunmei's hand: "Chunmei, you have to help me."
"I will naturally help the girl."
Chunmei curled her lips slightly. Country girls are easy to deceive and will be scared if they are slightly scared.
But it's better this way. It's easier to control her. Once she completely deceives the trust of this village girl and helps her become the mistress of the palace, she will see who in the palace dares to look down on her.
In the next few days, Su Yu ran into Yunzhu who was almost unable to stand while holding the wash basin, Tongyue who was shoveling shit in the stable with her hands covering her nose, and other people who were working in various corners of the palace.
They all looked pale and thin, and looked listless. When they saw her, they didn't even dare to say a word and lowered their heads to avoid her.
Su Yu turned her head back until she could no longer see their figures, and asked in confusion: "What happened to them?"
She looked even more haggard than the refugees who had fled from their village.
Chunmei gloated: "It's natural that this happens when you don't have enough food to eat."
"Not having enough to eat?" Su Yu frowned, with a look of deep confusion in her eyes, "They want to lose weight? Zhao Ce...Does the prince really like this?"
Chunmei: “…”
Is this village girl really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?
Chunmei covered her lips and smiled: "The prince naturally likes people like you."
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Go quickly, young lady. The prince will be in the study at this time every day to handle official business. Young lady, take this opportunity to bring chicken soup to the prince and say some nice words to let the prince see your intentions. Remember?"
Su Yu nodded: "I understand."
study.
Zhao Ce sealed the item and said, "Give it to my uncle and ask him to present it to my father tomorrow morning. After so much time, it's time for my good brother to explain the reason for the assassination."
The black-clad guard on the ground raised his hand and took it: "Yes."
Suddenly, a report came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, Miss Su is outside and wants to see you."
Miss Su?
The pretty figure appeared in front of him. Zhao Ce paused and waved his hand to let the secret guards retreat.
"Let her in."
The door creaked open and Su Yu walked in carrying a lunch box. She was wearing a red dress, which was very bright in color. However, it did not steal the show on her. Instead, it made her look as pretty as Shunhua, extremely beautiful.
She walked briskly and said in a sweet voice, "Zhao Ce, I'm here to bring you some chicken soup."
Chunmei was listening carefully outside. As soon as the first sentence came out, the expectant smile on her face disappeared instantly.
Ahhhh, what's wrong with this country girl? Where are those opening lines I taught her? Has she learned them by heart?
The two people in the room had no idea how crazy Chunmei was.
Zhao Ce raised his eyebrows and his eyes fell on the food box in Su Yu's hand. He watched the little girl come in happily, take out the chicken soup from the food box, fill a small bowl and put it in front of him, looking at him eagerly.
Zhao Ce looked inquiringly.
Such a long time has passed without any movement from her, and yet she suddenly came here today... Zhao Ce suddenly thought of an old saying, "If someone shows kindness to you without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief."
Su Yu urged: "Drink it quickly."
Zhao Ce raised the corner of his lips slightly, thinking that Su Yu would not dare to poison him in his house.
He picked up the chicken soup and took a sip.
It tastes just like what the kitchen usually makes.
The small bowl was very shallow and could be finished in two or three sips. Zhao Ce raised his chin slightly and drank it all in one gulp.
"Is it delicious?" Su Yu asked eagerly.
Zhao Ce paused and nodded: "Would you like to try it too?"
"It's for you. I won't drink it." Su Yu shook her head. She had done her best and now it was time to get straight to the point. She stared at Zhao Ce and asked, "Prince Zhao..., can I stay in the palace forever?"
