Are you going to repay kindness with enmity?!
Then, then, then, then...who is Empress Fu's person?
The pupils of the two people with bruised faces and noses trembled violently.
In front, the figure in gorgeous clothes turned around gracefully, sat down on the chair carelessly, and looked over.
Sharp eyes.
The two of them hugged each other little by little, shivering.
After a pause, the girl slowly loosened her grip, bent her knees, and wept bitterly, prostrating herself before the woman. "Thank you, Madam, for saving my life."
The maid beside her also knelt down and kowtowed hurriedly, "Thank you so much, Your Majesty, for saving my life."
In front, Empress Fu looked at them coldly without saying a word.
The two men fell to the ground, not daring to make a sound.
a long time.
Empress Fu uttered a cold "huh," stood up, and walked around them twice without haste, exclaiming in amazement, "You have sneaked into the Lin Kingdom's palace and even served in my palace for many years. You are really capable."
"It's all because of your Majesty's kindness and generosity." The maid smiled an ugly smile that almost looked like tears. "If this servant were somewhere else, I wouldn't be alive today. I would have been tortured to death long ago."
As soon as these words were spoken.
Empress Fu immediately raised her head, raised the corners of her mouth, and said complacently: "This palace is naturally the best in the world."
The coldness on her face instantly faded away. She raised her sleeve to cover her mouth and laughed loudly, walking slowly around them: "If it weren't for my kindness and my love of watching the fun, you wouldn't even know where you died tonight."
“Yes, yes!”
The two of them immediately kowtowed again and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for saving our lives!"
Empress Fu curled her lips, snorted, and walked back to her chair.
Reaching out for the chair, she slowly turned around to sit down, and said with a smug look on her face, "But I didn't save you in vain. You can't let me take on all the responsibilities and risks and then..."
She opened her eyes and looked.
The two people who were kneeling on the ground came closer to each other without knowing when.
One of them was holding a rope, and the other was holding a pair of scissors that flashed a cold light. They appeared not far in front of her and gestured at her.
The unfinished words were stuck in her throat. Empress Fu was stunned and blinked blankly.
Wait until she opens her eyes and look again.
In front, two people with bruised faces and noses were still kneeling on the ground, looking obedient.
Empress Fu was horrified. "You were going to attack me just now, weren't you? Is this how you repay me for saving your life?!"
The two of them looked up and looked at her with clear and innocent eyes.
Lady Fu didn't believe them at all. She suddenly raised her arms and wrapped them around her shoulders, leaning back with a look of horror on her face. "You guys were just going to repay kindness with enmity, weren't you?!"
In front of her, two men with bruised faces and noses stretched out a hand from behind their backs, swearing solemnly and waving their hands in denial at her:
"No, no, absolutely not."
Empress Fu: “!!!”
"Stretch out your other hand." Empress Fu stared at them and said.
The two men put their outstretched hands behind their backs, stretched out their other hands, and continued to wave.
Lady Fu: “…Heh.”
Empress Fu hugged herself and looked at them with a vigilant expression, warning: "If anything happens to me, you will definitely not survive."
She repeated emphatically, "You absolutely can't survive. Absolutely!"
The two of them closed their eyes and nodded repeatedly, then opened their mouths and said:
"Your Majesty, I will never forget your life-saving grace. I will do my utmost to protect you and will never let anyone hurt you!"
Empress Fu was shocked. She had never seen such a shameless person before. She screamed, "You two are the most dangerous to me right now!"
The two of them immediately burst into tears and made gestures of holding their hearts. "We have lost the trust of the Majesty. It is because of our servants' poor service. We will accept the punishment now."
Having said this, he stood up and slowly retreated towards the palace gate with tears in his eyes.
"stop."
Empress Fu slowly lowered her hand, her face speechless. She said, "Do you think you can still get out? If you leave this palace, you will be captured within ten steps."
The two stopped.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them rushed in front of her.
"Plop!" The two men knelt at her feet, one on each side, crying bitterly, "My Queen, save me!"
Empress Fu smiled with the corners of her mouth curled up, patted their heads with one hand each, and said softly, "Wouldn't it be better if it was like this earlier?"
In his lowered eyes, there was a glint of kindness and an inexplicable sharpness.
She lowered her palms and they both trembled.
"This palace..." Empress Fu narrowed her eyes and said slowly, "I also happen to want to discuss a small deal with Yuan Nation."
The two looked up in surprise.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Madam Fu's face flashed with dissatisfaction. She withdrew her hand and folded her arms. "Although I often live in the harem, it is just like this. I understand the root causes of Lin Nation best."
She snorted coldly and said, "Anyway, the situation is what it is. Now that I know about it, shouldn't I make plans early?"
"Your Majesty is so amazing, you have foresight!" On the ground, the two people immediately showed admiration on their faces and started to flatter her.
Empress Fu raised the corners of her mouth, paused, coughed lightly, and restrainedly lowered the corners of her mouth.
She glanced at the two people on her left and right and said sternly, "Although I have temporarily protected you and can guarantee your safety in this palace, if you want to leave the palace... I'm afraid it's impossible."
As soon as these words were spoken.
The girl kneeling on her right suddenly raised her head, tears streaming down her bruised face.
The girl looked over pitifully, her eyes full of pleading, and said softly, "My Lady..."
"Stop!"
Empress Fu suddenly raised her hand and interrupted her.
"This palace has long stopped letting anyone out. Except for the emperor, everyone else is treated the same!"
Empress Fu's expression was resolute. She turned away from her and said in a resolute tone, "It's already very difficult for me to protect you. Let me be frank, I can only ensure your safety in this palace. If you leave this palace, you will definitely not be able to wait for me to rescue you."
"Your Majesty..."
The girl came to the place where her gaze was directed, crying, and looked at her pitifully.
Empress Fu turned her gaze away again and said, "Look at you, just staying alive is so difficult. Even if I can send you out of the palace, how long can you live?"
"Your Majesty..."
The girl stretched out a finger aggrievedly and carefully hooked the corner of her sleeve.
Empress Fu closed her eyes, crossed her arms in front of her, raised her head, and pouted in dissatisfaction, "Don't take advantage of my kindness. I have a family to take care of!"
She snorted coldly and said, "Anyway, I'm putting my words here. If you can accept it, then stay and be content. If you can't, then just walk out of the hall!"
"After all, I have no obligation to protect you." Empress Fu snorted, "It's not like I absolutely have to rely on your Yuan Nation."
The words had been spoken so firmly that the girl immediately realized that there was no chance of leaving and became dejected.
Lady Fu glanced at her and said:
"As for the transmission of information, I can lend you my family's letters. My family has a special code, and the transmission inside and outside the palace will not be known to outsiders."
Upon hearing this, the girl sat down on the ground at the back, with an ugly expression of both crying and laughing on her face, and she said with a sob:
"Your Majesty, you want us to stay here as hostages..."
"What kind of life am I living? Why is it so miserable..."
The girl cried herself to the point of forgetfulness.
Beside her, a palace maid knelt silently, lowered her head and said nothing. She was originally working in this palace, so naturally she didn't have too many attachments.
Empress Fu hummed softly and glanced at the crying girl, "Can't you stay in this palace for just one day?"
She said with surprise, "You don't look like a specially trained secret guard. Which secret guard has such poor psychological quality? You look like someone's spoiled daughter."
Hearing this, the girl on the ground cried even louder.
“That’s who I am!!!”
"My damn father wanted to take this opportunity to make himself known to the nobles, and he even sent me here, saying that he wanted me to do some work and make some achievements to pave the way for my future—woo woo woo—"
She raised her head and cried, "I will never come again——"
Lady Fu waved her hands casually and said perfunctorily, "Don't cry, don't cry."
She washed her hands, picked up a grape from the fruit bowl beside her, and put it into her mouth. She said lazily and nonchalantly, "Your mind needs to be sharpened. I've been here for six years, and I've never seen anyone cry and make a fuss like you."
Fu Niangniang glanced at the fruit bowl, picked up a small orange slice and ate it, saying casually, "Eat and drink as you please, isn't it? It's all the same. If you feel uncomfortable, go to sleep, and you won't feel uncomfortable when you wake up."
The girl wiped her tears, stood up from the ground, and said with a sob, "I, I have to pass the message back first."
"That's right." Lady Fu looked up at her in surprise. "I was wrong before. You clearly have a very strong character!"
When the girl heard this, tears welled up in her eyes again. She stamped her feet in anger and grievance and said, "I still want to go back earlier, wuwuwu..."
Empress Fu burst out laughing.
"Alright." Lady Fu wiped her hands, raised her eyes and motioned the maid beside her to prepare paper, ink, brush and inkstone. She said to the girl with amusement, "Alright, Miss Jiaojiao, come this way."
The girl wiped her tears, her mouth pouting unconsciously, and followed her.
In front of the desk, Empress Fu asked the girl to write down the content of the message first.
The girl picked up the pen and wrote seriously and solemnly in the flickering candlelight, sniffing from time to time or pausing to think.
Beside her, Empress Fu looked at the words appearing on the paper, and suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she said, "You have reminded me, but I don't think I have ever seen her, nor have I heard anything about her."
Suddenly, the girl stopped writing and looked up at the gorgeous figure next to her.
The girl's wounds had mostly healed, but her red and swollen eyes tried to express confusion. "Have we never met before? How is that possible?!"
"Isn't it?"
Empress Fu said, “When she entered the palace, she was given the title of Empress Dowager, and I thought she would be highly respected.
"I waited for a month or two but didn't see her. Others went to see her but couldn't see her either. Gradually, no one mentioned the matter anymore and they all forgot she existed."
The girl was stunned, a look of disbelief in her eyes. She said, "It's impossible that she was hidden away as soon as she entered the palace and not allowed to see anyone else? Why is that? What do they want to do by hiding her?"
Lady Fu glanced at her and said, "Haha," "Doesn't this stop you two little thieves?"
The girl was stunned for a moment and said in shock, "No, that's impossible! They couldn't have been preparing for this a few years ago, right?"
