Chapter 33: Concubine Lian feels she is right
Xu Lanshan had figured out that the harder the task was, the greater the reward would be, and the percentage increase was much greater than the last time.
And this extra reward space...is it a reward for completing the task many days ahead of schedule?
What should I do? I feel like I'm full of energy!
In Yuming Palace, Concubine Lian was smashing things madly and throwing a tantrum, cursing "Bitch, bitch!" non-stop. When she was tired of cursing and smashing things, she threw herself on the bed and burst into tears.
It would be better not to celebrate her birthday!
It's so sad!
Not only did that bitch Xu Lanshan become famous and even get promoted, but that bitch Bai Guiren was actually pregnant!
Another woman in the harem became pregnant, but it was not her.
"I will not let them go! I will never let them go! Why can't the emperor see clearly? Those women only covet his power, and I am the only one who is sincere to him, ah wuwuwu..."
Concubine Lian couldn't stop crying.
She really didn't understand why her sincerity was wrong? Three generations ago, another emperor of the Wen family had a favorite concubine who was just like this.
Because the favored concubine loved the emperor sincerely, she could not bear to see him favor other concubines, and she was always jealous and rebellious. The emperor was moved by her true love, and she would give in every time they quarreled, and their relationship would then rise to a higher level.
In the end, in order to stop his favorite concubine from being sad, the emperor favored her alone, and all the other concubines in the six palaces became decorations.
After all, true love is hard to come by. Other women are after power and wealth, but she is the only one who truly loves them! The emperor is a sensible man and is finally moved by her...
This matter particularly suited Concubine Lian's wishes, and she felt more and more that she had done nothing wrong, as she had always done so. She felt that one day, she would be able to show the emperor her true joys after suffering, just like this favorite concubine in history, and live with the emperor forever.
Even the throne of queen will be hers one day!
But why is it different?
Why did the Emperor hate her so much? Why did he treat her sincerity like a piece of trash?
Seriously, this is such a rare and precious thing in this deep palace, and only she has it!
...Perhaps she forgot that if the emperor was not the emperor, she might not have given her true heart to him?
"I refuse to accept this, and I will never admit defeat! One day, I will win the emperor's heart, and the emperor will one day see my sincerity... Those bitches deserve to die!"
Lian Fei wiped away her tears, gnashed her teeth, and continued to rush towards her death as usual...
Xu Lanshan didn't expect that the emperor would come to Cuiyinxuan. She was lazily lying on the kang in the east room and chatting with Yuchan. The emperor just barged in without telling anyone, catching Xu Lanshan off guard.
The elegant and charming persona must not collapse! Xu Lanshan was so frightened that she almost jumped up, and hurriedly restrained her expression and movements, trying to get off the kang to salute.
Emperor Yuan Yong laughed heartily and stepped forward to hold her down, then sat down on the edge of the kang. "Lan'er, there's no need to be so polite!"
Yuchan was also frightened and retreated in a hurry.
Xu Lanshan smiled charmingly, finally straightened her clothes and sat down: "Yes, Your Majesty, how did you find time to come here? You didn't even let anyone know. How can I welcome you when I'm almost disheveled?"
Emperor Yuan Yong thought of what he had just seen. The lazy and languid look on this person's face, as if she were lying on the couch without bones, was quite charming. He felt a little itchy in his heart. He pulled her into his arms and kissed her. He took the opportunity to play with her beautiful hands and said teasingly, "So what if her clothes are disheveled? It's not like I haven't seen this before."
This was such a shameless remark that Xu Lanshan blushed and said coquettishly, "Your Majesty!"
Emperor Yuan Yong laughed heartily, becoming even more distracted, and hugged the person affectionately.
He nuzzled the beauty in his arms, taking a deep breath at her delicate white neck. The pleasant fragrance was so captivating that his heart was intoxicated. His large palm landed on her slender waist, and he knuckled it firmly, laughing softly, "I didn't know Lan'er could dance, and dance so well. How many surprises does Lan'er have that I don't know about? Hmm?"
Xu Lanshan almost burst out laughing, but quickly suppressed it. She smiled sweetly and raised her chin with a little pride: "Your Majesty, do you like it too? Then my dance today was not in vain!"
"You!" Emperor Yuan Yong was a little amused and helpless.
He naturally understood now that Xu Lanshan was forced to perform in public today by Concubine Lian. Concubine Lian certainly had no good intentions and just wanted to humiliate her and see her make a fool of herself.
But unexpectedly, she herself became the clown.
Emperor Yuan Yong hated her even more, as well as her scheming and despicable tactics.
Xu Lanshan refused to give in and continued to pester Emperor Yuan Yong, saying, "Your Majesty, do you like it or not?"
Do you like her? Of course he does. This is the first time he has encountered such a straightforward concubine in the harem, but he doesn't feel disgusted. On the contrary, he likes her straightforward and passionate feelings.
"I like it very much," Emperor Yuan Yong said with a smile, "If it were danced for me, I would like it even more!"
"Really?" Xu Lanshan's eyes lit up.
Emperor Yuan Yong had originally said it casually, but upon seeing this, he became somewhat interested and said with a smile, "How about Lan'er dance for me on my birthday?"
Xu Lanshan nodded without hesitation: "Okay, I will think about it and practice it carefully, and I will definitely not disappoint the emperor!"
If you have talent, why not show it? If you don't show it, wouldn't it be a waste of time?
Don’t miss out on the bonus points.
Emperor Yuan Yong was delighted: "I have never seen this before. I hope Lan'er will not disappoint me."
Xu Lanshan thought about it, hesitated for a moment, and nodded vigorously as if she had made a great decision: "Yes, I will definitely think about it carefully, and I will definitely, um... definitely choreograph a dance that will not disappoint the emperor!"
Don't say it too easily, otherwise the other person won't cherish it.
Emperor Yuan Yong saw that she was clearly hesitant and reluctant, and clearly unsure, yet she still agreed with high spirits. This showed how much she valued him, and his mood immediately brightened. He laughed heartily and said, "Okay, then I'll be waiting! If Lan'er needs anything, just send someone to tell Dong Zhi."
Xu Lanshan was delighted: "That's even better! I thank the Emperor!"
Emperor Yuan Yong laughed and pinched her face. This woman's mind was so simple and straightforward, so open and lovely that people felt no burden and relaxed when they were with her.
Emperor Yuan Yong stayed in Cuiyinxuan for a while and left in a good mood.
Originally, Emperor Yuan Yong should have gone to rest with Concubine Lian tonight. After all, Concubine Lian held a high position and it was her birthday, so even if he was unhappy, he had to give her some face.
But he really didn't like what Concubine Lian did today.
He also has a bad temper. He doesn't like doing things in the first place, and now he is even more dissatisfied. So why should he hold his nose and put himself in a difficult position?
