The Empress Behind the Veil
Chapter 35 Can't Offend Consort Lan
Qin Ruojiu nodded, “I am full, have Yan’er and Xiao Huan clean it.”
Lu’Er also felt the awkwardness of Qin Ruojiu, “Is the Empress thinking about Consort Lan's problem?”
Qin Ruojiu turned around, “You heard everything?”
Lu’Er nodded in fear, “Sorry.I know the nature of Consort Lan, she will not eat here without hidden reasons.”
Qin Ruojiu nodded, “Iya, it is.”
“Has she and the Empress reached a mutual agreement?”
“No, I declined the offer.”
Lu’Er also sneered, “It's worth Consort Lan looking angry when she left.”
“Yes, my words earlier seemed too harsh.”
“Why did the Empress speak like that earlier? I think Consort Lan would definitely like to cooperate with the Empress, so that she can get the support of the Empress, but this could also strengthen the current position of the Empress.”
Qin Ruojiu shook her head, “You don't understand. Although my situation in this palace is threatened, but my father has advised me not to oppress others just because my status is as Empress. It is indeed good to have power within the palace, but Consort Lan is also not an ordinary woman.I guess, she is even more terrifying than Consort Zhen and Consort Noble Zhao.”
Qin Ruojiu lowered her head and held back her tears, “His Majesty's concubine Zhao is already pregnant with the Emperor's child, but she is not arrogant, and not haughty to me, meaning she is not an ambitious woman who likes to fight. If I hadn't violated his territory, he wouldn't have harmed me. While Consort Zhen did like to fight over affection and like to show off, but his thoughts were not so thorough and deep. He felt that he was the one who received the most attention from the Emperor, so he underestimated everyone, he considered that if he could serve His Majesty the Emperor well, he would, then this entire palace would be his. He already felt all this was his, then he would not look for trouble with me, After all he also knew that His Majesty the Emperor did not like me.”
“Causible!”
“While Concubine Lan, she was indeed not so prioritized by His Majesty the Emperor, but she had quite a deep stratagem. He had already complained to all of us indirectly, then pretended to be a good party. He invited me to work together, not to help me, but to use me and destroy both his enemies. After his stratagem succeeds, he will reveal everything, His Majesty the Emperor who is furious will punish me for death. He will be the final winner. If I cooperate with him, it means I give my soul to the devil.”
“It turns out the Empress has seen everything clearly!” Lu’Er looked at him in surprise. This empress before him looked meek and reserved, but who would have thought, she was a truly intelligent woman.
Although in the eyes of others, this Empress was a doom-carrying demon, an expert in sorcery, but Lu’Er already did not think so. From his words earlier, he could already feel the kindness of the Empress heart, not even his eyes were blinded by power.
“Lu’Er, there are some people who should not be made friends, because once they become your friends, you will realize that the person turns out to be more dangerous than your enemies, Consort Lan is one of them. Listen, he has not long entered the palace, but he has been given the title of concubine by His Majesty, meaning his stratagem, has exceeded ordinary women.”
“True said Empress.
“Abrella available before rain, never offend Concubine Lan.”
“Good, Empress. I will also try to avoid those Consorts Lan.”
“Good if you understand!”
