Feng Lingyu really couldn't talk to him anymore. She felt so embarrassed that she covered her face and whispered in a low voice, "Your Majesty, please go back...go back! I'm a little dizzy and want to rest for a while!"
"
"Then Queen, have a good rest, I will come here when I have time!"
Baili Qingchen happened to have a lot of things to deal with. Seeing how shy she was, he didn't want to disturb her anymore. After saying that, he turned around and left with his hands behind his back.
Feng Lingyu looked at his leaving figure and finally breathed a sigh of relief. She sat on the chair and drank tea irritably. This man was really terrible. All her secrets were known to him.
She really didn't want to mention her miserable past. If other people knew about it, she would probably be scolded as a witch who brought disaster to the country and the people.
This incident also served as a wake-up call for him. In the future, even the young eunuch would not be able to talk casually.
Not long after the emperor left, Zhao Yurou came back, ran in and asked excitedly, "How is the queen? Did the emperor hit you?".
"Even if the emperor is a tyrant, it is impossible for him to beat a woman!
Today's plan failed, and I was humiliated by the emperor to the point of shame. If I had known better, I wouldn't have used such vulgar methods!"
Feng Lingyu regretted it. In fact, her method was not clever at all, even very low-level. If the emperor was normal, he would have guessed that this was the simplest method chosen by a woman to attract a man's attention.
"Let me just say that this method won't work. If the Emperor doesn't want a beauty like the Queen, how can he look at other women.
Li Qingqing is of average beauty, not as good as Concubine Shu and Concubine Lian. The Emperor is indifferent to those two empresses, how could he fall in love with this Li Qingqing!"
As a woman, Zhao Yurou has no feelings for Li Qingqing. She has a figure but not a figure, and looks but not looks. She is just a little bean sprout at best. She is pretty but does not quench her thirst.
"Why……"
Feng Lingyu shook her head gently. She didn't know how to tell her about this matter, but she also felt that she shouldn't hide it.
After much thought, he still did not tell Zhao Yurou about his previous acquaintance with the emperor.
"Empress, are we going in the wrong direction? Maybe the emperor doesn't like women at all!
We can find a beautiful man to give to the emperor!"
Zhao Yurou had an idea and thought that this emperor was not a bad womanizer, but a good man. Everyone has a side that is unknown to everyone. You may not be able to express your true love, and you may not be recognized by the world, but the kind of love you have in your heart.
Restlessness can never be suppressed.
Seeing Zhao Yurou's eyes shining, Feng Lingyu smiled strangely, "Let's forget it, I don't want to be beaten to death by the emperor!
The emperor does like women, anyway, let’s not use this trick in the future, as it will annoy him and cause trouble instead.”
Zhao Yurou was very disappointed after hearing this. She got up and walked around the room, "The emperor likes women but doesn't touch them. He must have never met someone he likes. This is bad.
Queen, I think you will be able to charm the Emperor with your beauty. Otherwise, why don’t you stop inventing and go and invent the Emperor?"
"What exactly do you want to say?"
"What I want to say is that the Queen Mother is coming back. If we don't gain a firm foothold, the Queen Mother will definitely kill us two or throw us into the cold palace, leaving us two to live alone!"
Zhao Yurou was so anxious that she was sweating. At first, she thought this matter was nothing special. If she spent her life indifferently like this, at least no one would disturb her, and her life would be considered pure.
But that old witch is coming back. If that old witch comes back, the harem will be ruled by others. There will be no room for two tigers in one mountain, even if the queen is just a decoration.
The Queen Mother will definitely regard her as a thorn in her side and a thorn in her flesh, and she will be eliminated sooner or later.
"So fast?"
Feng Lingyu thought about how the Queen Mother came back so soon after just a few days away. It seemed that their good days were really over. The return of that old witch would definitely make the harem uneasy.
"Empress, you are really in this mountain, and you don't know where to go!"
The Queen Mother has been gone for more than a month. In order to make the Emperor happy, she stayed at the Imperial Mausoleum for a month and should be on her way back now."
There is no way for Zhao Yurou to do anything about the Queen. She doesn't listen to what is going on outside the window and only focuses on research.
"Queen, you are so good at inventing things, why not invent a very powerful weapon. As long as the Queen Mother and others do anything to us, we will kill her!"
Zhao Yurou felt that the emperor might not be able to pass this test. Since he couldn't get what the emperor had, it was better to rely on himself.
Feng Lingyu likes to make small inventions so much, and the things she makes always surprise people. She must be able to find a way to solve this crisis.
"It's easy to say...if we kill him, how will we live in the future? The power behind the Queen Mother is beyond our imagination now.
She can reach into the cold palace and let a crazy concubine hurt me, is there anything she can't do?"
Feng Lingyu had underestimated her enemy too much before. Although the old witch was not in the palace, her people were in the palace. She had suffered a head injury some time ago, so it was because of someone's instigation.
This damn Queen Mother, even if she is guarding the tomb in the imperial mausoleum, she still has to control the people in the palace to do things for her.
Concubine Lian has been staying quietly in her palace recently. She must have been instructed by the Queen Mother to stay quiet and avoid causing trouble.
"Then what should we do? We can't just let him go and do nothing, just wait for him to abuse us?"
Zhao Yurou sat down weakly as if she had been cramped, leaning on the table and looking at her sideways.
"Otherwise, the two of us should just run away. The harem is so big anyway, and no one will know that we are missing two concubines."
"If you are missing two concubines, no one will know about it. If you are missing a queen, people will know it immediately!"
Feng Lingyu poked her forehead helplessly, "If you want to run away, I can help you, but I can't get out in this life, and I don't want to get out either. The outside world may not be as good as we imagine.
No matter how powerful the Queen Mother is, at least she is in the open, so we can still survive if we are careful!"
"I also traveled to the ends of the world with my sword. Although I lived a comfortable life, it was not easy even if I was a little poor and had to sleep in the open air every day.
I've been in the palace for a long time, and I'm really scared to get used to it when I go out.
Besides, there aren’t as many beauties outside as there are inside the palace, so let’s take a look at it step by step?”
Zhao Yurou tilted her chin and looked at her, gently hooking her hand, "I wish I could be as calm as the Queen!"
"I'm not calm. I've always had this dead face since I was a child. It's very unpleasant!"
Feng Lingyu showed a stiff smile. Since she was a child, her grandma didn't care for her and her uncle didn't love her. She liked reading and doing research. Over time, she developed her current indifferent character, and her family didn't like her very much.
