While bathing, Zhu Er angrily spoke up for Qiao Yu:
"The Emperor clearly knows about your relationship with the Second Miss. The Empress Dowager is about to fire her, but the Emperor insists that she is keeping you company."
Zhu'er and Qiao Yu have a close relationship, so she can naturally say whatever she wants to Qiao Yu.
Sufang said nothing from beginning to end. She knew that even if Zhu'er was facing a master like Qiao Yu, it would not be nice to speak without restraint, but it was not her turn to speak.
"You little girl, I've really spoiled you so much that you have no more words. Ask Sufang what she thinks about this matter?"
Zhu Er looked at Su Fang. Seeing that she had been named by her master, she could no longer remain indifferent, so she spoke frankly about her opinion:
"Although Jin Liangyuan is a concubine's daughter, Concubine Yao is favored in the Hua Mansion and will definitely marry a noble woman in the future. The emperor is venting his anger on behalf of the empress in disguise."
Staying in the palace is different from being outside. Although if you are favored, you will be successful, but if you are not favored, what is the difference between that and staying in the cold palace?
Aunt Yao is so capable of handling things, how could she let Hua Yunya marry into a poor family in the future? Even if she becomes a concubine of a high-ranking official, it is better than having three thousand beauties in the harem waiting for the emperor.
Only those who have been there know how cold the harem is. Sufang could never say this directly. Zhu'er is just a little naive, not ignorant.
When it comes to bedtime, men wash up faster than women and don’t need to go through the step-by-step process of taking a scented milk bath.
Although Yan Fu felt that Qiao Yu smelled good even without these things, he also thought that this might be a girl's pleasure, so he didn't say anything.
Even with the bright candlelight, the man sitting by the bed seemed a little unreal. Yan Fu was reading Qiao Yu's sketchbook.
He knew that Qiao Yu liked to read picture books when she had nothing to do, so he sent her a lot of them. But he didn't expect that she liked them so much that she even put a few of them by her bed.
"Your Majesty, do you also find this story interesting?"
The girl's voice was soft and gentle, and she displayed her hobby in a graceful and generous manner, with a hint of showing off.
Other women are eager to let their husbands know how beautiful and tasteful they are, so they either play the piano or write calligraphy.
She kept these low-class hobbies hidden away, but she even dragged me into enjoying them.
"It's really good. I think it's beautiful too."
When Yan Fu said this, he was not looking at the storybook, but at the girl in front of him, even though he had seen her so many times.
He still thought Qiao Yusheng was extremely beautiful. It wasn't just her looks that mattered, but her eyes and temperament made people fall in love with her no matter how they looked at her.
"How can it be so beautiful when there are words on it? The emperor just likes to tease me."
Qiao Yu was not annoyed, so Yan Fu pulled her into his arms and read the storybook together. In the past, the girl would have struggled several times, but now she seemed very familiar with his arms.
"I have arranged the positions of all the concubines. Tomorrow the Emperor will review them and see if they are safe."
"Well, I believe in your ability."
Qiao Yu didn't care about the man's perfunctory answer. When she turned to the next page of the storybook, she tried her best to make it sound like she was just mentioning it casually:
"Qiu Ziqian, I think she is as pure as ice and snow, and her temperament is the most outstanding among all the beautiful women. I would like to confer the title of noble lady on her. What do you think, Your Majesty?"
As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere in the room dropped to freezing point. The man's amber eyes seemed to be pregnant with a storm, and his voice was suppressed, hoarse, and extremely dangerous:
"Lan'er, are you testing me?"
Qiu Zuosi Langzhong was only a fifth-rank official. Many women from wealthy families were only noble ladies when they first entered the palace. How could Qiu Ziqiang be made a noble lady just because she was so beautiful?
This is obviously impossible. The only possibility is that Qiao Yu guessed how special Qiu Ziqiang is in Yan Fu's heart.
The emperor’s wrath resulted in millions of corpses.
The palace maids in the room didn't know what was going on, but the overwhelming aura made them kneel down as if they valued their lives.
The Holy Heart is hard to predict and even more unpredictable. Qiao Yu's heart tightened. In the silence, he stretched out his hand to touch Yan Fu, but finally put away the album.
She calmly stood up from Yan Fu's arms and knelt down:
"I deserve to die."
Yan Fu hated Qiao Yu for being like this, just like she didn't like bamboo shoots. Even if he picked some for her, she wouldn't refuse.
Yan Fu didn't know how Qiao Yu guessed his thoughts, which was why he was a little angry. But why did he get even angrier when she respectfully admitted her guilt?!
"You really deserve to die."
This woman was extremely smart, but also extremely stupid. He was only distracted by Qiu Ziqiang for a fraction of a second before Qiao Yu realized what was going on.
But she was not angry. Instead, she wanted to get a high position for Qiu Ziqiang, so as not to let her husband's "sweetheart" down?
(After all, Qiao Yu is just your concubine, with one husband on her left and another on her right?)
The servants in the house risked their lives to shout in unison: "Your Majesty, calm down."
Generally speaking, if something happens to the master in the palace, the servants will indeed say this, but they are doing so out of concern for their own lives that may be affected.
The palace maids in Lan Zhao Palace truly serve their masters.
A big hand grabbed Qiao Yu's face and forced her to look at him. Yan Fu wanted to see through her clear eyes the emotions she was trying hard to suppress.
The last teardrop slid down, and the warm and wet feeling filled Yan Fu with anger, like a fire that was splashed with water, making a sizzling sound.
404: Yan Fu's favorability +5, total favorability 35.
After a whole month, Yan Fu's favor finally took a small step forward. It turned out that his bet was right.
"Get up, I shouldn't be angry with you, just do as you say, I'm tired and need to rest."
Yan Fu was indeed angry, but he was not angry about Qiao Yu's temptation, but because he thought that the rabbit did not seem to mind its owner having a second pet.
This strange and uncontrollable emotion made Yan Fu extremely upset.
