Chapter 24 Why does she need a virtuous persona?
Concubine Lin took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "This Mengding stone flower is really rare. Today, I am lucky enough to enjoy it thanks to Sister Xu!"
Xu Lanshan quickly said with a humble smile: "Sister Guipin is really good at joking. It really embarrasses me."
Concubine Rou also laughed and said, "That's right, no matter when you come, I can't forget your good tea, can I?"
The three of them chatted for a while, and Concubine Rou smiled at Xu Lanshan and said, "I may not have any other experience here, but I do have more experience. If you are short of anything in your daily life, just send someone to tell me. If there is anything you don't understand, just come and ask. You are welcome."
Concubine Lin also nodded and smiled, "That's exactly what I mean. We are all sisters serving the Emperor, so we should get along well with each other. This isn't just a polite remark. Wouldn't it be nice to live in harmony and happiness? There's no telling how many new people will enter the palace in the future. If they could all get along happily, that would be a blessing for us!"
Xu Lanshan and Roupin both agreed with a smile.
Concubine Rou glanced at Xu Lanshan and smiled, "Sister Xu, I have a few words to say. I wonder if you would like to hear them?"
Xu Lanshan hurriedly said solemnly, "I'm not afraid of being laughed at by Sister Roupin. I don't know anything. In fact, I'm very nervous, afraid that I'll do something wrong and be laughed at and punished. I wish someone could teach me. If Sister Roupin and Sister Guipin are willing to teach me, it would be a blessing for me!"
Xu Lanshan complained in her heart: It's here, it's finally here! Shouldn't we get down to business? Hurry up and finish this so she can go back and rest. This is so tiring to deal with, even more exhausting than serving in the emperor's bedchamber.
Concubine Rou and Concubine Lin couldn't help but reveal a hint of pride, which showed that Xu Lanshan's words made them very satisfied.
"Sister, you are so intelligent, beautiful, and have such a good temper. No wonder you caught the Emperor's eye! If so, I'll tell you." Concubine Rou sighed softly. "Sister, you are now favored, the most in the palace. But after all, you are from Song Ronghua, so some people are jealous of you and say a lot of unpleasant things behind your back. It's not good. Sister, you are favored and have been in the emperor's bed for many years, but Song Ronghua... Why don't you say a few good words for Song Ronghua in front of the emperor? First, you appear virtuous, and second, you help Song Ronghua and show that you remember your old master. Wouldn't everyone be happy?"
After Concubine Rou finished speaking, Concubine Lin Gui couldn't help but look at her deeply, but nodded in agreement towards Xu Lanshan: "Sister Xu, Concubine Rou is absolutely right. This is exactly how it should be."
Xu Lanshan suddenly understood and nodded quickly, expressing her gratitude: "Guipin and Roupin, what you said is absolutely right. I will remember it."
Remembering it is one thing, but as for whether to follow it...of course not.
She is not the queen, but just a little concubine. Why does she need to be virtuous?
Song Ronghua was about to kill her, and now they were completely at odds with each other. How could she put in a few good words for Song Ronghua? Oh, how could that be possible?
She is not that nosy, nor that generous.
What does it have to do with her whether Song Ronghua is favored or not?
She only needs to be a cute and lovely concubine who only has the emperor in her heart and eyes. Is it her job to worry about other things in such a position?
She can't take away the bosses' work.
Concubine Rou may not have had genuine good intentions. Why did she instigate her to establish a "virtuous" person? She didn't seem to have such a big heart!
Seeing her so obedient, Concubine Rou was quite satisfied, "Sister Xu is so kind, generous, and considerate. No wonder the emperor likes her!"
“Who says it’s not?”
"Sisters, please stop teasing your younger sister!"
The three of them chatted for a while, and then Xu Lanshan took her leave.
Concubine Lin also left.
The two said goodbye outside Xia Si Palace and returned to their respective bedrooms.
Back at Cuiyinxuan, Xiao Fuzi came up to greet her with a smile on her face, "My lady is back! Look, my lady, the emperor has given you another reward."
Xu Lanshan was immediately interested: "Oh? I'd really like to take a look."
Yu Chan happily supported her and said with a smile: "My lady, you are really favored. The emperor is thinking about you in everything."
The emperor rewarded her with four pairs of jade bracelets and six rings.
The jade bracelets included white jade, green jade, jadeite with a good water content, and a pair of violet jadeite bracelets. The six rings included jade rings and gold rings inlaid with pearls or gemstones.
All are exquisite and beautiful.
Xiao Fuzi grinned and said, "Eunuch Cong, who brought the reward, said that the emperor has verbally instructed that the young ladies should wear these jewels and dress themselves up."
Xu Lanshan curled the corners of her lips and nodded: "Well, this is the grace of the emperor."
When good things happen to you, you feel refreshed and happy again!
Not long after lunch, Xu Lanshan did not go out again. She took a nap, and then got up to play with flowers and plants with Yuchan and Xiaofuzi, or chat with them. She felt quite comfortable.
Xu Lanshan felt better when she thought that the emperor would not come tonight and she didn't have to tense up and act out all the singing, reciting, and fighting.
Lying down at night, Xu Lanshan began to greet the system: "Everyone!"
"Yes, honey! Do you want to learn dancing now? Sure!"
"You are quite enthusiastic!" Xu Lanshan glared at her with a smile. Although, she actually had the same idea in her mind, the feeling of learning something she proposed herself and learning something she was urged to learn by others was definitely different.
The system, however, had no such self-awareness and continued cheerfully, "Of course, dear! We are a professional palace fighting system."
Xu Lanshan: "...Okay, let's get started. I want to see it first."
"Okay, kiss!"
As the system finished speaking, Xu Lanshan's mind was shaken. When she came to her senses, she found herself in an unfamiliar space with an entire wall of electronic screens.
Xu Lanshan looked around curiously, and then she heard the system say, "Dear, you can practice dancing here. Just follow the instructions. If your movements are not standard, the teacher will correct you. In fact, your dancing talent is now far beyond that of ordinary people. It will be very easy for you to learn! Come on, dear, I'm watching you!"
Xu Lanshan was very interested: "Okay, okay, let me take a look first!"
This screen can be operated like a computer, of course, it is much more convenient than a computer.
Xu Lanshan stepped forward, grasped a handle, established a connection with the screen, issued commands in her mind, and the screen immediately changed accordingly.
There are many different kinds of dance.
But she found that all these dances were suitable for the current era, and there was no dance that transcended the times. At most, there were some yoga exercises, which were probably used to adjust the body shape.
Xu Lanshan thought it was quite normal. As long as she could learn to adapt to the times, that would be enough.
Each of the dances shown above is a top-notch visual enjoyment! From dance to music.
As Xu Lanshan watched, she became fascinated.
