Chapter 390: The Stunning Flower Demon in the Palace Fighting Novel (3)
The Zichen Hall was solemn and dignified. Ambergris slowly rose from the incense burner and drifted in the air, bringing with it the mouth-watering dragon aura that made Su Yu swallow her saliva.
Unfortunately, as a palace maid serving tea, and not the only one, Su Yu could only enter the Zichen Palace a few times a day.
That day, the emperor pinched her chin and asked her what her name was, seemingly just on a whim, and he never gave her another look after that.
Su Yu sighed and could only seize this rare opportunity to absorb the dragon energy.
Occasionally, she couldn't help but glance at Xiao Yan with a sad look in her eyes, and her feet unconsciously moved closer to him.
"Ahem!" The emperor coughed lightly and looked at her warningly, "Go down."
Su Yu held up the tray with grievance: "I will take my leave."
Su Yu felt really wronged. What was the difference between this and putting her together with a delicious fried chicken and not allowing her to eat it? Not only was she not allowed to eat it, she was not even allowed to smell it.
Xiao Yan watched her retreat coldly.
Xiao Yan lowered his head and took a sip of tea, frowning. This tea was really unpalatable. How did the Ministry of Internal Affairs send someone to him?
Su Yu's daily tasks were very easy. She and the other two palace maids who served tea took turns entering the hall to replace the cold tea.
When she is not needed, it doesn't matter if she just hides in the house and sleeps.
However, generally no palace maid dared to do this, as once discovered, it would be a serious crime punishable by the death penalty.
Su Yu found a place to hide away as usual. She had absorbed too much dragon energy in the past few days and was full. She planned to go to the Imperial Garden to see her true form after digesting today's dragon energy.
The deserted harem has become lively in the past few days.
At least Su Yu had never seen so many people in the Imperial Garden before.
Su Yu, dressed in a palace maid's uniform, hid behind a rockery and quietly observed that side. Her eyes fell on a beautiful and gentle woman, and her radar was instantly activated: the heroine!
Xue Chuyue was born beautiful with a slender figure. The Moon White Palace decoration made her look like a goddess from the Moon Palace, pure and elegant, very much in line with current aesthetics.
Su Yu pinched her face and looked at the bulge on her chest. No matter how she looked at it, she looked very different from the heroine.
No wonder I am a monster.
"Sister Xue is so proud now. It's different with the support of the Empress Dowager."
On the other side of the Imperial Garden, a woman in pink palace dress slowly approached, making sarcastic remarks, showing her ill intentions.
Qiu Yu was worried: "My lady, it's Consort Zheng."
Except for ladies without rank, selected concubines are the lowest level in the harem, followed by noble ladies, talented ladies, beauties, concubines, noble concubines, concubines, noble concubines, and queens.
Zheng Xuanshi and Xue Chuyue were both selected concubines. Logically, there was no distinction between superior and inferior. However, Zheng Xuanshi felt that her family background was better than Xue Chuyue's, and it was really an humiliation for herself to be selected concubine with her.
Xue Chuyue lowered her head slightly and stabbed back, "Sister Zheng, you are too kind. The Queen Mother is kind and just. It's not a question of whether she supports you or not."
Zheng Xuanshi sneered: "It's good that you know. Don't think that the Queen Mother is protecting you. Remember your identity, the daughter of a merchant, of humble status. Being able to serve His Majesty is the blessing that your ancestors have cultivated for eight lifetimes."
Xue Chuyue said indifferently: "What Concubine Zheng said is true. It is my sister's honor to be a Concubine with Concubine Zheng and serve His Majesty together."
"you!"
Consort Zheng looked unhappy: "She is truly a merchant's daughter, she is just uneducated!"
Xue Chuyue lowered her eyelashes: "Selectwoman Zheng is right."
Su Yu hid behind the rockery and almost laughed out loud. It was no wonder that Concubine Zheng was angry.
The heroine's words can be translated as follows: You look down on me because I am the daughter of a merchant, but you are a selected concubine with the same status as me, so you are not much better than a merchant's daughter, and are equally lowly.
Not to mention that the heroine's address was changed from Sister Zheng to Concubine Zheng. Every time she called her that, it was like a stab in her heart. Concubine Zheng was furious, but since they had the same status, she had no right to cause trouble.
Zheng Xuanshi was really about to explode with anger: "You! Just wait and see!"
Xue Chuyue said in a flat voice: "Ms. Zheng, take care."
The figure in the distance was walking faster, looking mad.
Qiu Yu felt relieved, and smiled while covering her mouth: "Your Majesty should have done this a long time ago. You are of the same position, and I don't know why Consort Zheng always looks down on you."
Xue Chuyue's eyes were calm: "Let's go too."
She instructed another maid: "Dongxue, during this period of time, you should ask the palace maids in our palace to keep a low profile and not cause trouble."
"yes."
Not long after, the Imperial Garden became deserted again.
Su Yu went out from behind the rockery, concealed her figure and walked into the depths of the imperial garden. After finding her main body, she sent all the magic power she had accumulated in the past few days into it.
The burnt black on the edges of the petals is lighter.
Unfortunately, the power of the thunder was too strong, and the original owner was killed directly. If he wanted to completely recover from his injuries, this amount of magic power would be like a drop in the bucket.
At this rate, Su Yu estimates that it will take at least ten years to fully recover.
If only there was a faster way to steal dragon energy.
Su Yu touched her petals with heartache. They were beautiful and smooth like silk. They would have been even more pleasing to the eye if there wasn't that burnt spot on the edge.
"Who's there?"
Xue Chuyue walked for a while before she realized that one of her earrings was missing. She thought it had fallen in the imperial garden, so she returned with the palace maids and eunuchs to look for it.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked over, I saw a figure floating in the depths of the imperial garden.
Qiu Yu shouted, "Come out quickly."
Su Yu was shocked and had nowhere to hide.
There are flowers all around, and people outside can see her just by walking in.
Su Yu shrank and squatted in the flowers, feeling fortunate that she was a monster with a little magical power. If they came in, she could use an sleight of hand to hide away.
A piece of pink and white palace maid's uniform was exposed, trembling slightly, as if she was afraid.
Xue Chuyue stared at the piece of clothing for a while, and suddenly stopped Qiuyu: "Forget it, Qiuyu, let's go, maybe it fell somewhere else."
It's not easy for everyone in this palace.
Huh?
Su Yu looked out from the gap between the petals, and happened to meet the heroine's clear eyes. She was startled and quickly retracted her head.
Xue Chuyue didn't expect that their eyes would meet by such a coincidence.
It seems that the person hiding inside is a little palace maid. I wonder which palace's little palace maid is so bold to hide in the imperial garden in broad daylight. If she accidentally tramples on some precious flowers and plants, she will be beheaded if she is discovered.
The noise outside soon died down.
Su Yu added a layer of protection to her body and prepared to slip back to the emperor.
After walking a few steps, I saw a pearl earring in the corner, covered by leaves. If it weren't for the special angle, it would be difficult to find.
Su Yu picked it up curiously. It seemed to be the earring that the heroine was looking for.
After looking at it for a while, she put the earrings in her arms, planning to find an opportunity to return them.
After returning to the Zichen Palace, Su Yu cast a spell to clean off the dirt that had accidentally rubbed off on her body before walking in front of the people.
There were also some lazy palace maids and eunuchs in the Purple Palace, but it was the first time they had seen someone like Su Yu who dared to be lazy after only a few days on duty.
"Su Yu, His Majesty is looking for you."
A maid came in hurriedly, panting: "Where have you been? His Majesty is looking for you, please come in quickly."
