Chapter 761: Exchange a Simple Condition for a Difficult One
"His Royal Highness King Yue refuses to come?" Shao Yanru said with a gloomy face.
"His Highness means, don't worry, he... will... think of something..." Shuqi stammered. She roughly summed up the meaning of this by herself.
"Where is Shao Wanru?" Shao Yanru asked, the viciousness in her eyes almost overflowing. She felt that it was all Shao Wanru's fault. His Highness King Yue would not be like this in the past. It must be because of Shao Wanru. She hated Shao Wanru and wished she could do it now. He skinned her and cut out her heart, but he also knew that now was not the time to touch Shao Wanru right away.
"The fifth lady is in the pavilion where she was just talking to His Highness King Yue. She looks happy and has prepared tea and snacks!" Shuqi said angrily. After he finished speaking, he realized that he had specially added "Talk to His Highness King Yue" "These few words.
He was a little flustered for a moment and hurriedly lowered his head, fearing that Shao Yanru would be punished.
"Bitch, you are indeed a bitch!" Shao Yanru was furious and gritted her teeth angrily. King Yue was the one she liked. Seeing that Shao Wanru actually came to rob her, and King Yue actually had such a meaning. How could Shao Yanru endure it?
She originally wanted to use King Yue's special treatment of her to shock other beautiful girls and let them understand who is the final winner. Unexpectedly, she found that Chu Liuyue seemed to be a little separated from her. How could she Bear it.
How could it fail after so many years of planning at the most critical moment?
Her eyes were blank, staring coldly at a certain place in the sky. No matter what, she must let Chu Liuyue come to Chu Xiu Palace again for her sake.
"Tomorrow, if you go to invite King Yue again, just tell him that I have something important to tell him and ask him to come quickly!" Shao Yanru said softly.
"Tomorrow...where will the slave find...His Royal Highness King Yue?" Shuqi hesitated. She was in the palace now and couldn't wander around. It was impossible to know where His Highness King Yue was. She was a young lady brought by a beautiful girl. Maid, if you are not careful, you may even lose your life.
"What are you afraid of? I will let you find someone." Shao Yanru said coldly. Wang Yuxin told her where Chu Liuyue might be.
She didn't care where Chu Liuyue was at first. That's what she heard at the time. She even said that King Yue might really have feelings for Wang Yuxin and asked Wang Yuxin to cherish her. She also secretly congratulated her and said that she was the future Princess Yue, coaxed Wang Yuxin to tell her everything.
She didn't care before. She knew that Chu Liuyue couldn't really like Wang Yuxin. She would be a concubine at most. Chu Liuyue had mentioned it to her before.
In order to let Chu Liuyue ascend to that position, Shao Yanru once said that she would not care about this. As long as Chu Liuyue was good, she would be fine, even if she suffered some grievances.
This indifference was based on the fact that Chu Liuyue was devoted to her, and on the premise that Chu Liuyue took her to heart. And now that Shao Yanru felt the crisis, how could he not care.
She couldn't let Shao Yanru steal her position as the concubine. If Shao Wanru had to enter Prince Yue's palace, she would have to be the lowest concubine. So she wanted to seize the opportunity and must not let Shao Wanru take the lead.
"Yes, that servant will go there tomorrow, but His Highness King Yue...will he not come?" Shuqi still hesitated and said uneasily.
If she is rejected again, the young lady will definitely take all her anger out on herself.
"He won't, just say it's an important matter, related to Wang Yuxin!" Shao Yanru gritted his teeth, thought for a while and took Wang Yuxin out again.
If it was before, she was sure that Chu Liuyue would definitely come, but now she was not so sure, and even had to tear Wang Yu's heart out.
She clenched her fingers into fists, feeling annoyed and resentful in her heart. She made up her mind that if this didn't happen, she would fall into Chu Liuzhou's arms and help Chu Liuzhou deal with Chu Liuyue.
Although Chu Liuzhou still had a tyrannical queen pressing down on him, making things more inconvenient, as long as Chu Liuzhou promised her the position of concubine and promised that it would always be the case, she could still consider him.
Taking a deep breath, his eyes fell on the screen coldly: "Shao Wanru is still in the pavilion outside?"
"When I came here, I was still there, but now I don't know if I am here anymore!" Shuqi reported.
"Go and see if she is there. If not, bring the palace maid named Handan secretly. I have something to ask her!" Shao Yanru said.
There are not many people available in the palace, and Shuqi alone is too busy, and using Shuqi is easy to attract attention, so the best way is to use people from the palace.
This palace maid named Han Dan is pretty good, she seems to be smart, and she takes the initiative to show her favor to her again and again. She also reports to her as soon as possible when there is any news on weekdays. Shao Yanru feels good about her.
In Wang Yuxin's case, the eunuch sent someone to inquire about Handan. Shao Yanru didn't know much about it. He only knew that someone in the palace saw her and Shuqi acting very sneakily, because this was not considered real evidence, and it also proved that She couldn't tell her anything, at most she was just suspicious, so she wasn't allowed to confront the palace man named Han Dan face to face.
At this moment, Shao Yanru thought that the palace maid was sincerely surrendering to him.
Originally, Shao Yanru's temperament would not trust people so easily, but the only person she could use at the moment was Shu Qi. It was not easy to find someone who surrendered. Moreover, it seemed that the palace maid had done well in the past few days, and she was indeed devoted to her. If it's your own, use it first.
When Shuqi went out again, Shao Wanru's master and servant were no longer there. Looking at the empty pavilion, he carefully walked to the door of Shao Wanru's house and found that the door had been closed, and both master and servant were inside.
When dinner time came, the little eunuch who delivered the meal put down the food and was about to walk away. Shuqi went out and gave the little eunuch a purse with a smile. The little eunuch smiled happily when he took it.
Shuqi lowered his head and said something to him. The little eunuch nodded repeatedly, looked around to see that no one was looking at him, and then left.
Not long after, the palace maid Han Dan sneaked into Shao Yanru's door under the cover of the night. She was a little palace maid who was inconspicuous in the Chuxiu Palace. It was now shrouded in darkness again, and the beautiful ladies in the winter were all very delicate and noble. How could he come out at this time? Then something happened, and no one dared, let alone wanted to go out.
If you go out at this time, no one will see you.
"Your name is Handan?" Shao Yanru was sitting under the lamp, dressed elegantly and dignifiedly, with her hair combed meticulously.
She has a beautiful appearance and dignified behavior. Even in the inner room and at such a time, she can still see the bearing of a young lady from aristocratic family. Handan was immediately impressed.
Even some concubines in the palace did not have such a demeanor. She had seen the Queen from a distance, and it seemed that the Queen had such a calm and calm aura.
"Yes, my name is Han Dan!" Han Dan said timidly.
"You are an outstanding one. If I have a chance in the future, I will definitely give you a great blessing!" Shao Yanru smiled slightly and looked calm. She will still be the distinguished eldest daughter of the Xingguo Duke's family and has been well-known in the capital for a long time. The first beauty.
"Thank you Miss Shao, thank you Miss Shao! I will serve you wholeheartedly!" Handan was very excited. What she wanted was such an opportunity to get ahead. Now this opportunity was presented to her, and How could you not want it?
Her eyes were red with excitement. Although she was young, she had been in the palace for several years. Seeing the sisters around her lose their lives one by one due to various reasons, Handan felt that the only way to survive was to climb up. better.
She wants to be a great palace maid, she wants to be a decent person, and if given the chance, she will even climb the dragon's bed.
"That's the best thing you can think of!" Shao Yanru slowly wiped the corners of his lips with a handkerchief, his eyes flickering under the light, "There is something that needs you to investigate right now. If you do it well, , I will take you with me when the time comes, if you don’t do well..."
"Don't worry, young lady, I will definitely do well, I will definitely do well!" Handan hurriedly expressed her loyalty.
"It's not an important matter. Do you know King Zhou?" Shao Yanru asked.
"This servant knows, this servant knows that His Highness King Zhou is the Queen's legitimate son, and his status is very noble!" Han Dan's excited heart almost jumped out of his mouth. Hearing that Miss Shao meant that she was related to His Highness King Zhou Already?
"Check the whereabouts of His Royal Highness King Zhou, and find out where he is most likely to appear. Will he come to Chuxiu Palace? If he comes to Chuxiu Palace, you must report it to me as soon as possible!" Shao Yanru said softly.
Shuqi glanced at Shao Yanru in surprise. He didn't understand what she was doing by dragging out His Highness King Zhou at this time. Things with His Highness King Yue had not been settled yet. If he was dragging out His Highness King Zhou, something would easily happen.
"Miss... I am a little palace maid. If you dare not inquire about the whereabouts of His Highness King Zhou, you will be beaten to death!" Handan stuttered and said with a bitter look on his face.
This is not to shirk her. It is true that she cannot ask more about her identity. Asking more will arouse suspicion.
"I'm just asking about the usual whereabouts, but if His Highness King Zhou comes over, you must inform him immediately. And if you can't find the whereabouts of His Highness King Zhou, please help me keep an eye on my fifth sister!" Shao Yanru said tolerantly, as if Because Handan couldn't accomplish the previous thing, he deliberately found another simple thing.
In order to spy on the King of Zhou in exchange for spying on a little showgirl, it seems that Han Dan took advantage. If it had been someone else, Han Dan would have been overjoyed to thank her, but now this person is Miss Shao Wu!
Handan's heart was beating wildly. Among the people she was afraid of, Shao Wanru must be on the list, and his position was the highest.
Whether it is King Zhou or King Yue, these people are all aloof. Even if she is afraid, they usually have nothing to do with her, let alone trouble her as a little palace maid for no reason, but this Miss Shao Wu But it's different.
Every time he saw her, he would show a meaningful smile. Miss Shao Wu's smile was very beautiful, but in Han Dan's eyes, the fifth miss's hand kept pinching her seven inches, so that she did not dare to violate it at all. inverse.
Miss Shao is going to deal with Miss Shao Wu?
Handan raised his head in panic, opened his mouth, and subconsciously wanted to say something.
