Chapter 278: The Village Beauty Who Falsely Claims Favors in a Farming Story (25)
Chunmei was completely stunned when she saw Su Yu being sent back safe and sound.
Chunmei's voice trembled: "Girl..."
As if she knew what she was going to ask, Su Yu shook her head: "The prince didn't touch me."
Chunmei's face turned pale; she lost the bet.
Su Yu's eyebrows curved, and she said happily: "But the prince agreed to let me be a concubine."
The huge surprise almost made Chunmei faint. It was like she was riding a roller coaster. Her heart sank to the bottom one second and was lifted up the next.
Chunmei couldn't believe it: "What the girl said... is it true?"
The task was half completed. Su Yu was in a good mood and her voice unconsciously became cheerful: "Why would I lie to you? Of course it's true."
Chunmei was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth: "Congratulations, young lady, congratulations, young lady... No, it should be congratulations to the queen, congratulations to the queen."
With Chunmei around, the news that Su Yu was about to become a concubine spread throughout the palace the next day. Chunmei, who was already arrogant, became even more arrogant and walked with the wind.
Prince An's Mansion.
Zhao Sheng was hugging his concubine and appreciating the dancer's newly choreographed dance. When he heard the news, he sat up from his concubine's arms and said, "What? Zhao Ce wants to make that woman a concubine? Is the news true?"
"According to the servants of Prince Jin's mansion, this was admitted by Prince Jin himself."
Zhao Sheng narrowed his eyes: "Zhao Ce actually dotes on that woman so much."
Concubines can be included in the royal imperial genealogy. Since ancient times, concubines of princes have been selected by the royal family. They must be of noble birth and have both moral integrity and talent. At the very least, they must be favored concubines or concubines with children.
It was unbelievable that Zhao Ce agreed to make a village girl his concubine.
"But this is fine."
Zhao Sheng curled his lips coldly: "Did you go to the prison to bring up the person I asked you to bring up?"
"My Lord, the people have been settled in the mansion."
"Very good, bring them here to see the king."
The weather is getting warmer, the spring is bright and sunny, the cloudless sky is clear and blue, the air is filled with the warm fragrance of spring, and the breeze is gentle.
Su Yu sat in the garden pavilion enjoying the scenery. Under the corridor, a familiar figure was waving a broom vigorously.
Xiangzhu has been sweeping the floor for almost a month.
Every day she hoped to meet the prince by chance, so that he would change his mind, or at least... at least stop asking her to sweep the floor.
But more than a month passed, and she had never met the prince once.
She waited and waited, but even after receiving the news that Su Yu was about to become a concubine, she still didn't see the prince.
Xiang Zhu finally regretted it. She shouldn't have caused trouble for that village girl. If it weren't for what happened that day, she would never have fallen to the point of sweeping the floor in the garden. Who would have known that the prince cared so much about that village girl.
Su Yu looked at the maid in the corridor in surprise: "What is she doing? There are no fallen flowers or leaves on the ground, why is she sweeping the same place?"
Su Yu suddenly realized: "She is being lazy."
Xiang Zhu tried hard to suppress the distortion on her face. After sweeping away two or three leaves on the ground, she immediately moved to another place.
Chunmei laughed at him without hesitation: "You have a good eye, young lady. She is just being lazy."
Xiangzhu was so angry that her heart ached and she walked faster.
The annoying person finally left. Chunmei added tea to Su Yu's cup and moved a few plates of exquisite Wuweizhai snacks in front of her: "Miss, has the prince said when he will make you a concubine?"
Su Yu bit the snack, her cheeks puffed up slightly: "No, he said it's a bit troublesome, so let me wait a while."
Chunmei frowned: "It is a bit troublesome."
Chunmei was only focused on getting past the prince, but she forgot that being a concubine was not easy.
A powerless village girl who can't read a single word and has nothing good except her beauty, even if she has the identity of a savior, it will be difficult for her to become a concubine. First of all, it will be difficult for her to pass the test of His Majesty and the Queen.
Chunmei frowned and thought.
Su Yu didn't understand these principles and didn't care at all. She picked up a piece of Wuweizhai version of Snow Meringue and stuffed it into her mouth.
The heroine is worthy of being a food blogger. You can’t eat such delicious food in the 21st century. It is sweet but not greasy, soft and sticky, but the filling is a bit rough on your teeth... ?
Su Yu spat out what was in her mouth and took a closer look. It was a small wax ball?
What's going on?
The Snow Mei Niang was bought from Wuweizhai and delivered directly to her, and the skin of the Snow Mei Niang was intact with no signs of damage. So there was only one possibility, that the wax balls were put in during the production process.
Su Yu looked thoughtful and glanced at Chunmei who was still frowning in thought. While she was not paying attention, she squeezed the wax ball with a little force and found that there was something inside.
It was a note that read: See you in the private room on the third floor of Wuweizhai at noon tomorrow.
Su Yu turned the note over and there were words on the back: I don’t want anything to happen to your father and brother, and I don’t want Zhao Ce to know that you are not his real savior, so you’d better keep the appointment on time.
Su Yu's first reaction was that the female protagonist did it, but her second reaction ruled her out.
It doesn't seem like the heroine's style.
First of all, this person knows her identity and is also clear that she is not Zhao Ce’s savior. Although she is not the heroine, she is definitely connected to the heroine.
Secondly, her father and brother are in this man's hands.
Father and brother? Su Yu has three brothers. The eldest brother is honest and simple, the second brother is cunning, and the third brother is the most useless. He is stupid and dumb and is the easiest to use.
But weren't they in Sujia Village? When did they arrive in the capital?
Was he captured by this man? Then why didn't he capture the original owner's parents, but only the father and brother?
Su Yu was puzzled.
I have to meet this guy no matter what.
Su Yu immediately said, "Chunmei, I want to eat Wuweizhai's boiled pork slices. Let's go there at noon tomorrow."
Chunmei replied casually: "Then I will tell them to prepare the carriage later."
The next day.
The people at Wuweizhai seemed to have been prepared. As soon as Su Yu entered, someone came to greet her: "Young lady, please come this way."
Just as she was about to go upstairs, Su Yu suddenly thought of something and turned to Chunmei, "Chunmei, I want to eat the sweet rice dumplings from Zhouji Tangshui Shop. Go buy them for me."
Chunmei didn't think much about it and replied with a curled lip: "Yes."
This village girl loves to make trouble for others all the time. If Chunmei didn't see the possibility of her becoming a concubine, she would not have served her.
Wuweizhai is on North Street and the dessert shop is on East Street. After waiting in line for a long time, when Chunmei returned, Su Yu had already finished the boiled pork slices.
Su Yu's lips turned red from the spiciness, and she asked Chunmei to put down the sweet rice dumplings quickly with tears in her eyes.
"If a girl can't eat spicy food, she should eat less. She won't stop until it's so spicy that she cries."
Su Yu glanced at her and said, "You don't understand."
After eating a bowl of sweet dumplings, the spiciness was alleviated a little.
The system was lying on the chair opposite, with its mouth full of red oil. The food in the mission world was still delicious. It was indeed the right choice to beg the host to upgrade itself.
The private room on the third floor faces the street, and you can see the scene downstairs from the window.
A low-key carriage drove away, and Su Yu knew who was inside.
Prince An Zhao Sheng, the person she had arranged to meet today.
Two quarters of an hour ago.
"Miss Su is here indeed."
The man was drinking by himself. His handsome appearance was somewhat evil. His romantic and amorous eyes made people feel eerie for no reason. He didn't look like a good person at first glance.
