When everyone in the harem learned that Mu Sili had not replaced the original servants, they all showed different expressions.
"I thought she was smart, but she turned out to be a foolish beauty. In that case, I don't bother to argue with her anymore."
"Let our people serve with peace of mind. After all, her favor is only temporary. If I have the mind to be afraid of her, I might as well think about how to please the emperor."
"I said from the beginning that there was no need to prepare manpower in Chengqian Palace. Look, a foolish beauty has made them so afraid. It's really funny."
"Withdraw the people. Our people are not used in places like this. Otherwise, we won't know how they got killed."
The four concubines who had placed people in Chengqian Palace withdrew their people. To them, Mu Sili no longer posed a threat.
In the Cining Palace, Xiaozhuang was also talking about this matter with Sumalagu. Her people were still there and she didn't want to replace them.
This person was planted behind Shunzhi's back. As the empress dowager, she had to know all the movements in the harem and could not allow anyone to hide anything from her.
"Su Ma, what do you think of this virtuous concubine? Is she really just a fool beauty? I don't think she is.
If she was really a straw bag beauty, how could Fulin be interested in her? I really can’t figure it out.”
"Princess, isn't it good for the virtuous concubine to be like this? The emperor likes her, you have complied with the emperor's wishes, and the emperor is happy. Why do you care whether she is smart or not?
In my opinion, it is quite good for Her Majesty to be like this. After all, if a scheming and resourceful person enters the palace, it will be us who will suffer."
"That's right, let's do it this way for now. I want to see if she is really a fool. If she is, I will spare her life. If not, then I will kill her.
I don't like women who are too scheming. The concubines in the harem only need to give birth to children for Fulin. No other portraits are allowed."
Su Malagu nodded beside her. It was not easy to control a person without scheming. If he was too scheming, it would be easy to ruin the princess's plan.
"Fulin will definitely stay in Chengqian Palace today. They will come to pay their respects tomorrow morning. Please keep an eye on them for me. I didn't see them clearly that day."
"I know, Gege, it's getting late, you should go to bed."
Xiaozhuang went to rest, while Su Malagu was thinking about the strangeness of Mu Sili. She always felt that Mu Sili was not a foolish beauty, but her behavior made her puzzled and really upset.
In Chengqian Palace, as soon as Mu Sili finished her meal, Furong and her men took her to take a bath. She was going to serve the emperor in bed tonight, so there was still a lot of preparation to be done and she couldn't delay any longer.
"As expected, Your Majesty is even more beautiful after removing her makeup. This servant is so moved just looking at her."
"You just keep talking nonsense. Alright, let's go. Don't keep the emperor waiting too long."
"yes."
Shunzhi had also finished washing up. Looking at the fresh and refined yet charming Mousse Li, his mind had already flown away.
"Sleep well."
Shunzhi probably felt that he had finally gotten the person of his dreams, so he and Mu Sili played together until very late, until almost dawn.
Wu Liangfu was getting anxious as he waited outside the door. He wanted to remind Shunzhi that it was taking too long and disturbing his rest, but he was also afraid that Shunzhi was in high spirits and would drag him away and behead him in a fit of rage.
Seeing Furong standing beside him with a calm expression, Wu Liangfu was surprised. How come she wasn't worried or shy at all?
"Furong, why are you so calm?"
"Compared to the fact that Your Majesty is reading a storybook, I think these are trivial matters. Besides, Your Majesty is a concubine, isn't it normal for her to sleep with him?
Oh, I understand. Eunuch Wu, do you want to go in and remind the Emperor to keep quiet? Then I will open the door for you. Please go in."
Wu Liangfu looked at Furong speechlessly. If he dared, he would have gone in long ago. Why was he still chatting with her here?
Fortunately, the two of them finished before dawn, otherwise Wu Liangfu would have been afraid that Shunzhi would not be able to make it to the morning court.
"Your Majesty, would you like me to come in and serve you?"
"Come in."
Wu Liangfu brought people in to serve, and Furong followed in with them. She was Mu Sili's servant, and as soon as she entered, she hurried to clean up for Mu Sili.
"Furong, I'm a little tired. I'll clean up after I wake up. You can change my underwear later."
"Yes, I understand."
Mu Sili had no intention of getting up to serve Shunzhi. Wu Liangfu looked at Shunzhi's expression many times and found that he did not show any sign of anger.
I understand. The virtuous concubine is very much favored by the emperor. It seems I have to serve her carefully in the future.
As the chief eunuch beside the emperor, he has some foresight, otherwise he would be squeezed out by others sooner or later.
"Furong, take good care of your queen. When she wakes up, go to Kunning Palace to pay your respects to the queen. If the queen sends someone to ask, just say it was me who said it."
"Yes, I understand."
Shunzhi carefully tucked the corners of the quilt for Mu Sili, then quietly left with his men.
Furong stood outside the door with a smile on her face. Since her master, Mu Sili, was favored, she, as a maid, had to be respected when she went out.
Now that she has entered the palace, it is different from the mansion. She has to get the hang of it as soon as possible so that she can become a helper to her master.
An hour later, Mu Sili woke up slowly. She had served in the emperor's bed yesterday, and according to the rules, she had to go to Kunning Palace to pay her respects today.
"Your Majesty, are you awake? Do you want to sleep a little longer? The Emperor has only been gone for an hour. I see you look a little tired. Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Furong knew that Mu Sili had worked hard in the emperor's bed yesterday, and as her maid, she was very worried about her, so she wanted to let her sleep a little longer.
"I'm not going to sleep anymore. I have to go to Kunning Palace to pay my respects. I can hold on. Please help me get up."
"Your Majesty, before the Emperor left, he told you to have a good rest. You can visit the Empress later. If the Empress asks, just tell her that it was the Emperor who asked."
"Your Majesty feels sorry for me because I was tired yesterday, but I cannot disobey the rules. The Empress is the head of the Central Palace, and I am a concubine. It is my duty to pay my respects to the Empress after receiving her favor.
"Please dress me first. I need to go to Kunning Palace to pay my respects to the Empress. Otherwise, after today, the news that I am spoiled will spread throughout the harem."
Furong also realized the seriousness of the matter, and hurriedly helped Mu Sili to dress up. When everything was ready, Mu Sili took her to Kunning Palace to pay her respects.
Many concubines have arrived in Kunning Palace, and they are discussing whether Mu Sili will come to pay her respects.
In their opinion, since the emperor has given them grace, they would definitely not come. After all, the emperor has said so, so how can they slap the emperor in the face?
"It's true that the virtuous concubine is favored. When I first received the favor, I got up early in the morning to pay my respects to the empress."
"It's the same for everyone. The Emperor likes her, otherwise why would he issue such an order? It's just that the Empress is too kind, otherwise the Concubine Xian should be punished for her behavior."
"I'm not late, am I?"
