Chapter 511: Duplicity
Those who can serve by the emperor's side are not fools.
In front of Concubine Shu, they naturally would not greet Shen Lanxi warmly. Therefore, their eyes fell on Zhou Deshun for the first time: "Manager Zhou! You're back! β
The two rushed over and surrounded Zhou Deshun.
At the same time, he was also silent, and reported the current situation to him: "Your Majesty just didn't know what excerpts he had seen, so he lost his temper. At this moment, people are angry, you see...? β
Their voices were not small, not only Zhou Deshun heard it, but also the people around them.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the concubine who wanted to enter directly paused her steps.
As soon as she rolled her eyes, she turned her gaze directly to Zhou Deshun.
Obviously, I want to see what measures Zhou Deshun has on his side first.
It's just that the current Zhou Deshun doesn't have any good way. In the morning, he was driven away by His Majesty, and now he dares to come to the imperial study again, completely because he is carrying the food box given by Concubine Shen in his hand.
Moreover, His Majesty is angry about this matter... He seriously suspected that this was not because he had seen some angry excerpts, but because the morning breath had not subsided!
Zhou Deshun couldn't make up his mind for a while, so he could only discuss with Shen Lanxi: "Your Majesty is angry, look at this food box...?" β
"I also bothered my father-in-law to go in and report it, and said that I had sent snacks to His Majesty." Shen Lanxi politely smiled at the two guards guarding the door, and the decision was done.
"Thisβ" The two attendants glanced at each other, and both saw timidity in each other's eyes.
But Shen Lanxi looked firm: "Let's just say it, if Your Majesty is willing to see me, I will go in, and if Your Majesty is not willing to see me, I will not bother." β
"Okay, please wait a while." One of the chamberlains owed a debt, turned around and planned to report inside.
However, before he went far, he was stopped by Concubine Shu first: "Wait! Help Hongu spread the word together! β
When the little chamberlain heard this, he was suddenly frightened.
Help Concubine Shu pass the word?
This is looking for death!
Concubine Shen is in the favor of the Holy Grace, this time I go in, Your Majesty will not see it, and she will definitely not lose her temper with the person who said it. But if you bring a lady, no one will know the result...
Who in the palace doesn't know that His Majesty doesn't like the concubine? If it weren't for the Queen Mother's return, this concubine would still be grounded in Yutang Palace!
There are ten thousand reluctances in the heart of the little chamberlain.
But Concubine Shu had already stated her purpose by name, and he could only answer the "oh" and leave with tears in his eyes.
After carefully pushing open the door, the attendant who passed the message found a place to stay and knelt down at the first time: "Your Majesty, Concubine Shen has arrived, saying that she is here to bring you snacks." β
"Oh? She still has the energy to make snacks for others and seems to be sleeping well. Xiao Ciyu pressed the corners of his mouth and said something of unknown meaning.
When the waiter heard this, he was so frightened that his heart trembled.
What does Your Majesty mean by that?!
Sounds like she's complaining about Concubine Shen?!
However, His Majesty's complaints... Maybe it's duplicity?
Without waiting for the waiter to think further, Xiao Ciyu said, "Let her come in." β
"Whoa." The chamberlain understood, and was sure that this was duplicity!
On the surface, she sarcastically ridiculed Shen Concubine for being too energetic, but behind the scenes, she didn't know how happy she was.
With this understanding, he was also relieved to report the matter of Concubine Shu: "Your Majesty, and Concubine Niangniang, has also arrived..."
"She?" Almost the moment he heard Concubine Shu's name, Xiao Ciyu's eyebrows and eyes turned cold.
