Chapter 1363 The little mouse has a rival

The desk is still piled with memorials.

The young emperor was crouching at his desk to review. The candlelight danced gently, casting a diligent figure on the ground.

A very ordinary scene. If you can ignore the woman in front of the other table, this is actually no different from the past.

"Concubine Shu!"

Holding a bag of pastries, Lan Lingling dodged the heavy guards and came to the beam. Just as she was about to drop the crumbs of the pastries on purpose, she saw Concubine Shu when she attracted the attention of the young man in front of the case.

After Emperor Yuanwu ascended the throne, his post was always vacant, but he accepted four concubines first.

Since Xiao Guifei, the daughter of the Xiao family, was relegated to the cold palace, the concubine Shu, the concubine Xian and the concubine De were still living in the harem.

It's just that Emperor Yuanwu fell in love with Lan Lingling, who fell in love with Liang, so these three concubines are still unfavored.

Emperor Yuanwu wanted to make Lan Lingling his queen, but because of Lan Lingling's alien status, almost all the courtiers opposed it.

For the sake of the stability of the government, the two of them now have to be secretive when meeting.

Lan Lingling was worried about causing trouble to Emperor Yuanwu, so she didn't often go to the palace to see him. However, the two of them cared about each other, and they knew each other's thoughts and thoughts tacitly.

But Lan Lingling didn't expect to see Concubine Shu in Emperor Yuanwu's study.

They were not very close, nor did they do anything intimate. However, the woman's intuition still told her that Concubine Shu's appearance in the study was an unusual thing.

She squatted on the beam, eating the pastries she had just stolen from the imperial kitchen while observing their actions.

But her feet were numb from squatting, and she didn't see any interaction between the two.

Lan Ling's spiritual energy had dissipated a lot. She quietly came to the door, found Eunuch Lu who was dozing off, and asked, "What's going on inside?"

As soon as Eunuch Lu saw her, he lost all sleep: "My little ancestor, great aunt, why are you here?"

Lan Lingling frowned: "Why, can't I come? Are you afraid of disturbing the two of them?"

Eunuch Lu waved his hand quickly: "I don't mean that, I mean, Duke Yue is not here, and without him to cover you, it would be very dangerous for you to enter the palace rashly."

Lan Lingling's eyebrows instantly rose: "Don't give me a bad look, I want to know what's going on inside."

Eunuch Lu patiently explained: "Auntie, don't worry, nothing will happen. It's just that His Majesty found out that Concubine Shu has some talents, so he asked her to help with some small things."

Lan Lingling narrowed her eyes: "For example?"

Eunuch Lu replied: "For example, Concubine Shu is very good at saving money. The method she came up with for Your Majesty not only reduced the expenses of the harem, but also helped the Ministry of Household Affairs save a lot of money."

"But please be at ease, young lady. Your Majesty is just using your talents to the best of your ability and has no other ideas. Concubine Shu is also a person who abides by the rules and knows how to advance and retreat."

Lan Lingling was silent for a moment and said softly: "Concubine Shu is the granddaughter of Taifu Liu. She is a woman who grew up with a bookish spirit. She is talented, smart and intelligent. No wonder Ace values ​​her."

Eunuch Lu gave a thumbs up: "Miss Lingling's Qin language has improved. She didn't use a single word wrong."

Lan Lingling smiled and ignored Eunuch Lu.

She came to the window, quietly opened a gap, and gave a signal to Emperor Yuanwu.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Yuanwu was still focused on the memorial in front of him and did not hear her voice at all.

Lan Lingling didn't intend to just sit back and wait for Emperor Yuanwu to send Concubine Shu away.

"Ace!"

She pushed open the window, jumped in, and ran towards Emperor Yuanwu at a trot.

When Emperor Yuanwu raised his eyes in surprise, she had already jumped on him, hugged him and smiled sweetly: "Are you happy that I come to see you?"

Emperor Yuanwu didn't speak, he just looked at her and smiled, his eyes full of tolerance and doting.

Lan Lingling didn't seem to notice Concubine Shu's presence, and sat directly on Emperor Yuanwu's lap. She grabbed Emperor Yuanwu's tea cup and took a sip, complaining: "The pastries made in the imperial kitchen today are not delicious at all."

Emperor Yuanwu then replied to her: "What are they? I asked them not to do it in the future, just do what you like to eat."

Lan Lingling waved her hand: "Don't bother me. I came to the palace to see you, not for the cakes. I miss you, do you miss me?"

Emperor Yuanwu smiled and said nothing.

Lan Lingling hugged his neck and said, "If you don't tell me, I will keep hugging you and won't let you approve the memorial or sleep."

Emperor Yuanwu still looked at her and smiled: "Don't you know what I'm thinking?"

Lan Lingling kissed Emperor Yuanwu on the face, until Emperor Yuanwu's ears turned red, she smiled and said: "Let you go, because I know you must miss me."

"cough……"

Concubine Shu coughed awkwardly on the side, as if to remind Lan Lingling that there was someone else in the room.

Lan Lingling put her arms around Emperor Yuanwu's neck and looked in the direction of Concubine Shu, showing a surprised expression: "Huh? There are actually outsiders here. It's all my fault. I only see A Ce and can't see anyone else."

After saying that, Lan Lingling raised her eyebrows at Concubine Shu.

All the goblins in the book do this. She will follow the path of the goblins, leaving the goblins with nowhere to go.

Unexpectedly, Concubine Shu showed a smile. The smile appeared on her face. It was clearly light and gentle, which actually gave Lan Lingling a strange feeling.

It was as if Concubine Shu's smile was a bit sarcastic.

Ridiculing herself as just a wild girl who can act like a spoiled brat and get in the way, but she is a woman who can assist His Majesty.

This made Lan Lingling involuntarily let go of Emperor Yuanwu and looked at Concubine Shu carefully.

Concubine Shu is not beautiful, but she is very beautiful and elegant, like a pure little lily, dignified and peaceful.

Facing such a face, it is really difficult to feel hostile.

But the more this happened, the more Lan Lingling became more vigilant.

A biting dog doesn't bark, and most bad women look innocent on the outside.

Faced with Lan Lingling's scrutiny, Concubine Shu was very calm.

She stood up calmly, walked to Emperor Yuanwu, and put things on the desk: "Your Majesty, I have read the account books and found that some expenditures were unreasonable. I marked them all and wrote next to them. Please tell me the reason, Your Majesty."

After saying that, she smiled slightly at Lan Lingling, then lowered her eyes and stood quietly, as if waiting for Emperor Yuanwu to speak.

Emperor Yuanwu pulled Lan Lingling's loosened hand back to his shoulder, letting Lan Lingling continue to hold his neck. Without looking at Concubine Shu, he said softly: "Thank you for your hard work, let's get down!"

"Yes." Concubine Shu bowed Yingying and stepped back softly. She walked gracefully, calmly and neatly. There was no strange emotion between her brows or her face.

Lan Lingling watched with wide eyes, and couldn't help but have an illusion. Could it be that Concubine Shu's slightly sarcastic smile just now was fake?

Is it just her illusion?

How come this Concubine Shu seemed to be really just helping A Ce solve his problems, without any wrongdoing.

In front of such a quiet and elegant concubine, she actually felt ashamed of herself.

Concubine Shu's every move is like a model that came out of a book, which makes her look like a wild girl who doesn't understand the rules.

And those actions of kissing and swearing sovereignty are like a joke...

Inexplicably, Lan Lingling was a little angry.

She jumped down from Emperor Yuanwu's lap and spoke with a hint of bitterness and jealousy: "Ah... I am a well-educated, dignified and virtuous lady. She is also very capable and can help you solve problems."

"What about me? I am nothing and can't help you at all. The most important thing is that our names are not justified, but she is a famous woman..."

Emperor Yuanwu reached out to hug her: "Are you jealous?"

Lan Lingling pushed Emperor Yuanwu away: "How dare you?"

Emperor Yuanwu explained seriously: "There is nothing wrong between me and her."

This explanation made Lan Lingling frown.

It's not that she doesn't believe in A Ce, what she doesn't believe is the concubine who looks harmless to humans and animals.

A Ce is so frank and straightforward. It is obvious that in his heart A Ce firmly believes that Concubine Shu has no thoughts about him.

this is too scary.

Concubine Shu had already won A Ce's trust. If she had evil intentions, it would only be a matter of time before she rebelled against A Ce.

Lan Lingling instinctively wanted to get angry and scold this blind fool, but he was deceived by the seemingly innocent Concubine Shu.

But she restrained herself.

She racked her brains and finally found a solution in "Yang Qian"'s book.

She imitated the people in the book, first stabilized her emotions, and then began to give Emperor Yuanwu eye drops: "A Ce, I admit that I am a little jealous."

"But now that I have realized my mistake, I trust you wholeheartedly, so I shouldn't be so jealous."

"You have so many things to do and are so busy all day long. I'm very happy that she can help you. But you have to be on guard against others."

"You have to be careful when using her. If someone with intentions uses her to take advantage of her and hurt you, I will feel sorry for you."

Emperor Yuanwu stared at her and suddenly raised the corners of his lips: "So, you said so much just to remind me in disguise that Concubine Shu has a problem?"

Facing his gaze that seemed to be able to see through everything, Lan Lingling felt that her dark little thoughts had no way to hide.
