Chapter 46 Becomes the Focus Again
Xu Lanshan naturally expressed her deep gratitude to the visitor and thanked the Queen for her grace.
No matter what, she benefited from it.
Looking at the various gifts sent, it turned out that those sent by the Queen were not only the most valuable but also the most thoughtful.
As the queen, the most expensive gift was inevitable. After all, who would dare to surpass her? But the thoughtfulness was worthy of more attention.
Xu Lanshan couldn't help but wonder, it seemed that the Queen had made up her mind to recruit her?
It's a pity, she's afraid she will be disappointed.
Xu Lanshan didn't feel guilty at all. After all, the Queen wanted to recruit her, but she didn't really mean any good to her. She was just using her as a pawn.
If they were compatible, they would be together. If they were not, they would be apart. We would just have to wait and see. She didn't bother to think too much.
Besides, it is not up to her to decide what strategy the Queen will use.
Just as I finally lay down quietly, the system appeared with a "ding!"
"Congratulations on completing the task ahead of schedule, please remember to receive your reward!"
Xu Lanshan also became happy, "Okay!"
She also felt that the mission was basically accomplished, and her hunch was indeed good.
Xu Lanshan couldn't wait to receive the rewards: her base strength, which was 40%, increased by 30% to 70%, her body odor increased by 20% to 60%, her vision increased from 50% to 80%, and her lightness increased to 70%. Furthermore, her space increased by three cubic meters, bringing it to four.
Xu Lanshan happily confirmed all of them.
I just got a lot of good stuff and now I have a place to store it.
This surge in strength and vision was a real benefit. She found she could see things much more clearly. Hanging on hooks on either side of her bedroom door were egg-sized jade pendants with apricot-red tassels. Now she could see the patterns carved on the jade pendants clearly!
The system smiled and said, "This vision is not only static vision, but also dynamic vision. Dear, please make good use of it!"
Xu Lanshan: "...You reminded me so specifically, I'm a little panicked!"
System: "Ahem, dear, please don't wrongly accuse me. I will always stand by your side."
Xu Lanshan rolled her eyes, thinking, "You're just sweet talk! Haven't you tricked me enough? If she wasn't so smart, I'm afraid she would have died."
Of course, the system is still somewhat useful.
"Oh right, this stamina... I can't grow muscles, right? That's impossible!"
She regretted it now. If she had known earlier, she should not have decided so early.
The system laughed and quickly explained: "Of course not, don't worry, dear! Your figure is still as good as ever!"
Xu Lanshan was relieved, "Well, thank goodness!"
The system soothed him, "Don't worry, dear. We are a professional palace fighting system! We will definitely not give rewards that are not conducive to palace fighting."
Xu Lanshan: “…” Okay!
She just listened to this without saying anything. She has been cheated many times...
I just hope the next mission comes out a little later!
That night, Emperor Yuan Yong came as expected.
Xu Lanshan had deliberately dressed up in advance. She was young, with a fair complexion, a slender waist, and exquisite curves. The peach-pink, floor-length, flower-sprinkled brocade dress she wore made her look beautiful and delicate, graceful and elegant, without a trace of vulgarity.
She wore a wide-sleeved, transparent crimson gauze on the outside, which looked like a layer of mist, and the soft pink color also became more elegant.
Coupled with her black hair that is carefully half-tied and half-loose and her exquisitely drawn makeup, she looks even more radiant and charming.
Even Yuchan and Xiaofuzi, who were used to her beauty, were stunned.
Xu Lanshan curled her lips, very satisfied with the effect.
As soon as Emperor Yuan Yong arrived, he was also dazzled. He couldn't help but embrace her and said with a smile: "Why do I feel that Lan'er is becoming more and more beautiful!"
Xu Lanshan smiled sweetly, her eyes charming. Her slender, white, tender index finger, like a scallion root, seemed to stroke Emperor Yuan Yong's chest lightly and carelessly. She said delicately, "Your Majesty, when a happy event comes, one's spirits are lifted. When a person is in good spirits and looks good, they naturally look more beautiful. Your Majesty is my spirit. Your Majesty has made the decision for me today and promoted my status. I am so happy!"
Emperor Yuan Yong chuckled with delight: "Lan'er is really becoming more and more eloquent."
I've never heard anyone speak so bluntly and directly.
But why does it sound so pleasant and satisfying?
Xu Lanshan's beautiful eyes widened as she said in surprise, "I'm just telling the truth. There's no question of whether I can do it or not. Your Majesty is praising me too much!"
Emperor Yuan Yong laughed!
"Your little mouth looks like it's covered in honey!"
Xu Lanshan blinked, her eyes becoming more and more alluring as she spoke softly and ambiguously, "Really? Then...is it sweet, Your Majesty?"
Emperor Yuan Yong was stunned, a fire in his heart suddenly bursting out. He picked her up sideways and carried her to the bedroom, "You are really a demon!"
Xu Lanshan's sweet laughter, like a silver bell, could be heard through the curtains. Dong Zhi and the others had already quietly left...
After a night of blissful love, Emperor Yuan Yong felt the long-lost sense of physical and mental pleasure again. After experiencing better things, settling for anything else would be bland. Emperor Yuan Yong was never a person who would compromise himself, and Xu Lanshan's status in his heart was silently elevated a lot.
Lan'er is not only beautiful and sensible, but also admires him so much. There is nothing wrong with being with her, so he is naturally very satisfied.
When he got up early in the morning to attend court, Emperor Yuan Yong, in a good mood, did not disturb Xu Lanshan's sleep, so Xu Lanshan took the opportunity to remain in deep sleep without getting up.
After sleeping for half an hour longer, he went to pay his respects to the Queen.
Xu Lanshan, who had been promoted to Lady Xu, also sat forward, which made everyone feel very uncomfortable.
Yesterday was a farce. Concubine Lian and Concubine Song were under house arrest, but Xu Lanshan was promoted. What kind of thing is this? When the emperor shows favoritism, it is completely unreasonable.
Even the always conceited Concubine Yu felt a little jealous, and said with a half-smile, "Lady Xu is really lucky. In all these years, I have never seen anyone promoted so quickly!"
After Concubine Yu said this, the look she gave Xu Lanshan became even more complicated.
However, Concubine Lian was in trouble yesterday, and Song Ronghua was directly demoted. No one dared to cause trouble for Xu Lanshan at this time, so no one dared to speak out to agree with Concubine Yu.
Xu Lanshan still had her hair in a bun with bangs, her head lowered, looking extremely proper. She said softly, "I never thought that this would be a blessing in disguise. I was really scared yesterday, I thought it was going to be terrible..."
Concubine Deng was filled with rage. She'd been so worried about the Emperor's wrath the previous day, but luckily, she'd escaped unscathed. However, after escaping such a calamity, she felt a surge of discontent, thinking about how she'd been terrified while Xu Lanshan had gotten the upper hand. She scoffed, "Concubine Xu is making a big deal out of nothing. You and Concubine Song are master and servant, and everyone in the palace knows it. Concubine Xu just put in a few good words for Concubine Song in front of the Emperor, so what?"
