Li Shushu was preoccupied with something and was busy walking. She didn't even see the person opposite her and was about to go around with her maid Zhen'er.
But then a sharp and high-pitched shout was heard: "Stop!"
Li Shushu looked up and realized that it was the Imperial Noble Consort in front of her. She quickly knelt and saluted: "Your servant greets the Imperial Noble Consort."
"Hmph, you also know that you are a slave?" Yan Yuyan said righteously with a stern face, "You don't even bow to me when you see me. I think you are rebelling!"
"Your Highness, please forgive me. I was in such a hurry just now that I didn't see you clearly." Li Shushu knew that she had been too ostentatious in the hall today and was afraid that she would attract a lot of jealousy, so she quickly begged for mercy.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Are you in a hurry to reincarnate?" But Yan Yuyan had no intention of letting her go. "Kneel down!"
"Someone come and help me teach her some manners."
Li Shushu was helpless at the moment. The Emperor was not around, and even the eunuch Li, who had a say in things, was not around. Only Zhen'er was beside her, extremely anxious. However, on the surface, their ranks were similar, so it was impossible for her to plead with the Imperial Concubine for mercy.
"Yes." Li Shushu had no choice but to accept his fate and kneel down obediently.
Yan Yuyan was still not satisfied and continued to order: "Give me a hard slap on the face until she learns her lesson!"
The servant received the order and was about to swing his arm to slap Li Shushu in the face, but he heard a pleasant male voice: "Stop!"
At the same time, a handsome figure instantly blocked Li Shushu's sight, and the young eunuch who was about to hit someone was also grabbed by the arm and thrown out by him.
"Hey, Seventh Prince, haven't you always been indifferent to worldly affairs?
"Why are you so kind as to meddle in other people's business today? This maid just offended me, and I'm teaching her the rules right now." Yan Yuyan was puzzled when she saw that the visitor was the Seventh Prince Gu Jingheng.
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty." Gu Jingheng bowed to Yan Yuyan calmly and then said, "This palace maid is my childhood friend and good friend. I hope Your Majesty will spare her this time for my sake."
"Oh? Really?" Upon hearing this, Yan Yuyan's eyes moved back and forth between Li Shushu and Gu Jingheng several times.
"What if I insist on teaching him a lesson? What should the Seventh Prince do?"
"Then please don't blame me for being rude, sister-in-law. I will not let anyone hurt her today no matter what." Gu Jingheng answered neither humbly nor arrogantly, but also quite firmly.
Yan Yuyan didn't expect that this time the seven kings of Qingfeng Mingyue were really here.
He was so angry that he wrung the handkerchief in his hand.
But she knew that it was not wise to confront the seven kings head-on for a slave.
He could only remain silent for a moment, then sneered, "Oh, interesting, really interesting!"
"Even if you're lucky, I'll let you go this time for the sake of the Seventh Prince. Don't let you fall into my hands again next time!"
After saying that, Yan Yuyan turned around, with a sinister smile on her lips, and walked away twisting her body.
These seven princes are brothers of His Majesty from the same mother, and she doesn't want to offend him openly for the time being.
But she was not prepared to stop there, and instead sent someone to the Emperor.
She wanted to see how the Emperor would deal with his beloved personal maid, his new love, if he found out that she had an affair with his younger brother.
Especially, how to deal with this little bitch?
It must be very interesting!
Anyway, as long as this little bitch is still in the palace, she will fall into her hands sooner or later, and she has the patience to wait.
After Yan Yuyan left, Gu Jingheng hurriedly helped Li Shushu up and asked anxiously, "Shushu, where have you been all this time? I went to the Xinzheku many times to look for you, but I couldn't find you. I asked Nanny Li, but she didn't even know where you were."
Why did you appear next to your royal brother again?
Gu Jingheng resisted the urge to ask.
Li Shushu hurriedly took two steps back, keeping a polite and safe distance from Gu Jingheng, avoiding his passionate affection.
"Thank you, Seventh Prince, for helping me out just now. I have something else to do right now, so I'll leave first."
Li Shushu knew that she was now in public, and her relationship with the Emperor was unclear. She didn't know how many eyes were watching her, so she naturally didn't dare to have anything to do with the Seventh Prince anymore.
Otherwise, not only would you hurt yourself, but you would also hurt him.
But after finally meeting her, Gu Jingheng certainly wouldn't let her go so easily: "Shushu, what's wrong with you? Why don't you answer my questions?
That time, everything I said was true.
I'm really working hard for our future.
Originally, I had military merits, but after some evaluation, I realized that now that you have entered the palace as a maid, my military merits are probably not enough to ask my mother and my brother to marry you..." As he spoke, his voice lowered, as if he was a little discouraged.
Then he raised his head again and said, "But don't worry, this time my brother is taking us out for hunting. If we follow the custom of previous years, the one who comes out on top can apply to the emperor for a reward.
I will make good use of this opportunity and strive to be the first. When I ask for the reward, I will add my previous military achievements and ask the emperor to marry you. The emperor will definitely agree."
He encouraged himself and immersed himself in the beautiful bubble he created.
Li Shushu knew that at this point, there was no turning back.
She touched her belly, and although she felt a little reluctant, she still said resolutely: "This slave has already told the prince very clearly before, I am afraid that the prince may not have heard it clearly. Now this slave emphasizes it to the prince again. This slave thanks the prince for his kindness, but the threshold of the palace is too high. This slave is no longer innocent, so I dare not climb up. I hope the prince will forget this slave!
