Section XXI

Although Ziluo has left Beijing, Zihao is still there. Not to mention that he was entrusted to take good care of Yimei, but he didn't receive it, and he didn't want Yimei to be wronged. But his mind is not on these children's private affairs latelyβ€”he wants to take the heir. His Majesty has been over half a hundred years old and has been ill for a long time, and he has not been in court for a long time after the incident of the former deposed prince. However, he has been delaying the establishment of the crown prince, but recently he suddenly asked Ziluo to lead troops to quell the rebellion, which undoubtedly stirred up a thousand waves with one stone.

Zihao, who has always been eyeing the throne, cares even more.

Su Qi also noticed this, so she decided to form an alliance with Zihao.

"You want to help me ascend to the throne?

"Your Highness will not forget that I am the aunt of the Imperial Tea Bureau, and I am also the only tea lady in the Imperial Palace. ”

"So what?" Zihao had already seen that the woman in front of him was not simple at all, and her scheming was deep. Of course, he knew the weight of the history of the tea lady in front of the emperor, but he just wanted to test how the other party could help him. Su Qi had never intended to convince King An so easily. She cleared her throat and smiled as she played with her handkerchief and said, "I can know His Majesty's will as soon as possible, and I have a message here that will allow you to get rid of King Ying." King An couldn't help but be annoyed when she said this, "Bold! King Ying is my half-brother!"

Su Qi was not afraid, but said with a smile: "Your Highness, don't worry, what I said will get rid of his chance to become the crown prince instead of asking for his life." ”

"Then what do you want to get?" King An understood that since it was an alliance of interests, he naturally had to open the skylight and speak brightly, and only by knowing each other's desires and giving them could the covenant be stronger.

One sentence aroused a thousand waves in Su Qi's heart, and she said with hatred: "I'm fed up with the days of being a slave and a maidservant, I'm fed up with being looked down upon, and I'm fed up with being beaten and scolded at every turn." Saying that, Su Qi suddenly turned his head to stare at King An, this look was so terrifying that Zihao was a little timid. Su Qi continued, "After Your Highness ascends the throne, you don't need to make me a queen, just give me a concubine." ”

"That's it?" As expected, Zihao shook his head secretly in his heart, a little woman is a little girl. Immediately, he readily agreed to Su Qi's request, and immediately asked, "Then what is that news?"

"I can give you the news, but whether you want to use it depends on whether His Highness is ruthless or not. ”

"What the hell!?" Zihao's patience was worn out little by little, and the worry in his heart increased little by little.

After listening to Su Qi's words, King An's shocked appearance was very different from his previous image, "What did you say?!Yimei turned out to be the daughter of a traitor?"

"She turned out to be the daughter of a traitor!" Zihao couldn't calm down for a long time and repeated this sentence several times, proving that Yimei still had some weight in his heart. Regarding King An's aberration, Su Qi chose to ignore it and continued to say herself, "Just because Yimei is the daughter of a traitor and the relationship between her and King Ying is enough to make Your Highness have no worries." ”

"If this is true, it is natural, but if this is not true, then what?" Zi Hao, who had regained his composure, was like a wolf, cunning, suspicious and fierce. Su Qi also felt empty, "What does Your Highness mean by this?"

"It can't be a lie that you deliberately fabricated because you were jealous of Yimei, right?"

"The slave knows that His Royal Highness likes Sister Yimei, but if she wants to achieve a great cause, how can she care about the private affairs of her children!"

"Okay, I took the clues you provided, and I will give you what you want. It's just that it takes an opportunity to get to the bottom of this matter. Zihao's heart is really as hard as a stone.

Su Qi smiled and said to King An, "That's what His Highness should consider, the slave and maid will retire first!"

Speaking of Yimei, after she came to the Huanyi Bureau, she found that no matter how much psychological preparation she had made before, she was caught off guard in the face of the cruel reality. The handymen of the Raccoon Bureau have always been lazy and slippery, and all punishments are itching in their boots. Sometimes the clothes of some palaces are so urgent that Yimei has to wash them by hand, and some places, such as the clothes sent by the Imperial Tea Bureau, will designate Yimei to wash them herself. That's why she has only been in the Huanyi Bureau for more than a month, and her hands that were originally jade-like have become rough and pale. What's even more sad is that loneliness and longing are eroding her inner strength all the time, even Ye'er has been relegated to the Huanyi Bureau to accompany her in the past few days.

"Did the Imperial Tea Bureau return the washed clothes again?" As soon as Yimei instructed the people to wash the clothes of the Imperial Catering Bureau, she saw Ye Er leading the two people to walk this way with their clothes in their arms, and they were all full of anger.

"yes, they insist that the clothes smell bad. Why can't I smell it!" Ye Er said and sniffed the clothes in her arms again.

"I think they are just trying to find fault, and they also said that they will let your aunt wash it yourself and send it back. The slave's dissatisfaction was palpable.

Yi Meiyin's long-held anger finally broke out, and she said angrily: "No need to wash, come with me with your clothes!"

Yimei led the way to the Imperial Tea Bureau.

Since you have to tear your face off, then I will fulfill you!

The group of them rushed straight to the Imperial Tea Bureau in a rage, and it was also a coincidence that they bumped into Su Qi and the maidservant who was serving her head-on. Su Qi knew at a glance why the other party came, but he still smiled and took the initiative to lean over and ask affectionately: "Where is my sister going with a few entourages?" Yimei didn't pretend to be with her, and didn't give her face, and said: "We thought we came to your imperial tea bureau, do you still want to ask us where we're going?" This sentence was ruthless, and in front of the subordinates of both sides, Su Qi could stand it, only to see her face flush and purple for a while, and her clenched hands were almost pricked with her own nails. However, the current Su Qi was far from being comparable to the Su Qi of the year, and soon she let go of her hands and smiled again, "Then why did my sister come to my imperial tea bureau?"

"It's fine, but I want to remind you that although the Huanyi Bureau is a place to wash clothes, not everyone's clothes are washed!" Yimei said as she asked Ye'er and the others to stuff the clothes in their hands into Su Qi's handmaid.

This time, Su Qi's face became even more ugly. She could clearly hear the sound of her teeth rubbing hard, a life-and-death duel of forbearance and anger.

"Sister reminds me that Su Qi should keep it in mind!" Su Qi, who was forbearing, said this after defeating the angry Su Qi, and left in a hurry with the attendant.

The slaves and maids of the Huanyi Bureau applauded one after another when they got out of this evil breath, and their attitude towards Yimei also changed greatly, and for a while, there was an unprecedented harmonious atmosphere in the Huanyi Bureau. And this is the quiet beauty before the storm.

"Why don't you start dealing with her yet?" Su Qi was humiliated and couldn't attack Yimei, so she had to turn to Zihao, who warned her that she couldn't attack Yimei.

"The time has not come. King An read the note about the war in the southwest that was privately submitted by the secretary of the military department, and said without raising his head.

"I don't think you can bear it. Su Qi walked around to Zihao, hugged him, and said seductively in her ear: "Don't forget that she never had you in her heart!" Since they decided to join forces, Su Qi naturally climbed onto King An's bed, and the water melted and turned the phoenix upside down every night. Zihao grabbed Su Qi's hand and threw her into his arms, then pinched her chin hard and threatened, "I warn you, it's better to guess less about what I'm thinking!" he said, putting his mouth to her lips.
