The Queen Mother jumped from the tower, and His Majesty was reborn with fear
Chapter 79 Surrender
Similarly, she would not help someone for no reason in her current situation. She was alone in the palace and with Xie Yuxiu, walking on thin ice.
It would be nice if someone could be a shield or catalyst for her at this time. It was just mutual use. She might have thought it was a heartless thing before, but now she realized it was just a profit.
"It's just a small favor, no need to thank me. And if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have suffered this disaster today. In this case, these are what I should have done." Yu Jinzhi returned to her usual dignified and quiet appearance.
Su Jieyu seemed to be moved: "It has nothing to do with the princess. I just told the truth today. And even if I didn't say these, there would be no place for me in this palace."
Look, now we are getting to the point, right?
"Do you have any difficulties?" Yu Jinzhi asked in a pretentious manner.
"Although my father is the Grand Tutor, I am only a concubine's daughter. If my elder sister had not already found a husband of her dreams and my second sister's reputation had not been damaged, it would not have been my turn to enter the palace."
"My mother treated me well at home, and she originally wanted to find a good husband for me. Although she didn't require him to be a high-ranking official, he had to have good character. When I get married, being an ordinary couple would be better than what I'm going through now." Concubine Su was sad.
Yu Jinzhi also cooperated. She sat down next to him and said, "You can't say that." She said such things in the palace. She thought her life was too long.
"There's no one else here, so I dare to tell the princess this. But my place is really shabby, and we don't even have tea. I'm sorry for the poor hospitality and I'm sorry for the princess." Concubine Su said.
Yu Jinzhi didn't mind. She only had a simple table with a teacup on it, but the water in it had already gone cold. And... Concubine Su definitely couldn't find hot water. Usually, the palace maids around her would boil it for her.
"Don't bother, the most important thing is to take good care of yourself." Yu Jinzhi didn't have the patience to flatter others before, and now it's rare for her to be in such a mood.
"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Princess. It's normal for these nobles in the palace to have complaints about me because of my status. But if possible, I would rather not enter this palace." Concubine Su started crying as she spoke.
However, Yu Jinzhi did not seem to want to comfort her. Was she... testing his attitude or assuring him that she had no interest in entering the palace as a concubine, so she would not have any thoughts about Xie Yuxiu?
"But now that you have entered the palace, you cannot change this established fact. If you continue like this, they will probably get worse. How will you deal with it then?" Yu Jinzhi's patience was slowly worn out.
When Concubine Su heard this, she choked up several times: "But what can I use to fight? My status is not as good as theirs. Even if I want to do things in the palace, I have to make arrangements. But I..." She didn't have much money and was short of money. How could she make arrangements?
Her mother's family had no confidence in her, and since His Majesty had never been involved in the harem, they would not expect her to win favor.
"Money makes the world go round, but people who can get things done for money are not reliable." Yu Jinzhi replied. On the one hand, such people who are greedy for money are easy to manage, but greed is endless.
After hearing this, Concubine Su kept looking at Yu Jinzhi, as if expecting him to say something. But Yu Jinzhi didn't say anything.
Finally, Concubine Su couldn't help it anymore. This time she knelt down and said, "Please help me, my lady. I am really desperate. If you can help me, I will do anything for you."
Yu Jinzhi looked up at her, still confused: "What are you doing? Get up quickly, how can I help you? If you need anything, you can tell me and I will help you if I can, but if it's just for this, you don't have to kneel to me."
"No... Princess, I have no one to rely on in this palace, so I can only be bullied. So... so I want to ask for your protection. I won't fight for anything, I just want you to give me a place to stay." Concubine Su didn't continue to be shy about it.
She had figured it out. If she didn't take the initiative, Yu Jinzhi would probably just pretend to be stupid and not notice it.
"I don't understand what you mean." Yu Jinzhi's expression faded a little.
Of course, she couldn't agree to it so directly, or it would be too conspicuous, right? This time when she came to the hunting ground, there were fewer tails around her, but that didn't mean there weren't any. There must be someone outside the door watching the tent...
"Princess, I know I am asking too much. But I really have no other choice. I just don't want to live like this anymore. Please help me this time." Concubine Su spoke earnestly and seemed to be very sincere.
"You also know my situation. They are not afraid of me. Even if I am willing to help you, I can't help you. Instead of asking me for help, you might as well let His Majesty make the decision for you." Yu Jinzhi still held a refusing attitude.
But this looked a little different to Concubine Su. She didn't believe that Yu Jinzhi didn't care about the emperor's favor, so...was she saying this to test her desire to win the emperor's favor?
"I am not different from the emperor's favor. Everyone knows that your majesty has no interest in the harem and does not favor beautiful women. I just want to live, live decently, no longer be bullied by others, and live like a human being." Concubine Su once again expressed her determination not to compete for favor.
Yu Jinzhi remained silent.
"There are whip marks on my face, and the wounds are very deep. Even if they heal, I'm afraid the scars will never disappear. Princess, I can't even keep this face, how can I possibly keep His Majesty? It is well known that His Majesty treats you differently, and no one can hold a higher position in His Majesty's heart than you." Concubine Su simply spoke frankly, so that it would be easier to gain the other party's trust.
Yu Jinzhi also saw the scar on her face, which was indeed a sign of disfigurement.
"You should take good care of your injuries first and stop thinking about it." Yu Jinzhi still didn't give any accurate answer.
Su Jieyu was a little flustered.
Yu Jinzhi even stood up from her seat: "There are many eyes and ears in the palace, so you have to be careful when speaking. If others hear these words, who knows what trouble will be caused." She continued.
Su Jieyu was stunned for a moment, but slowly came back to her senses. Was this hinting at something? Did she not want to make this matter public?
"I won't stay here to disturb you while you recover from your injuries today. If you need any help, just send someone to come to me." Yu Jinzhi left the tent after saying this.
Only Su Jieyu was left with a bewildered look on her face. So did she accept the offer or not?
