Princess Royal was demoted to a commoner!
In just two days, Princess Royal's residence, which was once insufferably arrogant in the capital, and even the deposed emperor was afraid of it, was defeated.
The title of Princess Liu Hua was gone, but she was still a concubine. Even if she had not officially entered the palace, she was still the emperor's woman. It was impossible for her to continue to marry others. When Princess Royal's residence was seized, Princess Liu Hua was also taken into the palace.
"Your Ladyship, Princess Liu Hua has entered the palace." Qiu Yan came in and whispered in Lu Wushuang's ear.
Lu Wushuang lazily looked at her freshly dyed red nails and snorted without even raising her head, "If she wants to enter the palace, then so be it. It's no big deal."
Qiu Yan was surprised. When the Ladyship heard that the emperor made Princess Liu Hua a concubine, she was so angry that she could not eat for three days. How did she become so calm now? "Your Ladyship, aren't you angry?"
Lu Wushuang snorted, "Why am I angry? Xie Liuhua is not a princess now, and Princess Royal has become a commoner. Do you think the emperor will still love her?"
She had nothing to worry about, a concubine who had not yet won the emperor's favor and was thrown into the cold palace.
Qiu Yan heard Lu Wushuang's words and felt that it was reasonable, "Your Ladyship, even if Princess Liu Hua enters the palace, it will be useless."
Lu Wushuang smiled coquettishly, "Of course."
"Your Ladyship, I also heard something." Qiu Yan whispered in Lu Wushuang's ear.
"What is it?" Lu Wushuang asked.
Qiu Yan said, "I heard that the Empress Dowager sent an oral order for Old Madam Lu and Third Miss to accompany her to Hundred Gardens tomorrow."
The smile on Lu Wushuang's face suddenly froze, "What?"
"I don't know why the Empress Dowager likes Third Miss Lu so much." Qiu Yan glanced at Lu Wushuang carefully and whispered.
"That's because my cousin has the ability." Lu Wushuang's eyes were ferocious. "She can change from a wild girl to this in just a few months. It can be seen that she is not simple. It seems that she has spent more effort on the Empress Dowager than I do."
She had underestimated Lu Yaoyao, thinking that no matter how ambitious a country girl from a border town was, she wouldn't be able to make it to the public. She hadn't expected her to be able to coax the Empress Dowager into liking her so much.
"Go and call Aunt He. I will accompany the Empress Dowager to the Hundred Gardens tomorrow!" Lu Wushuang snorted. She did not believe that the Empress Dowager would stop her from going.
Qiu Yan responded, turned around, and went out to call Aunt He over.
Lu Wushuang took Aunt He to the Palace of Compassionate and Peaceful to see the Empress Dowager. However, the Empress Dowager did not let her in. She said that she still had to chant scriptures, so she did not want to see her. Lu Wushuang went back first.
What an old fart! Lu Wushuang cursed in her heart. If she was not afraid that the Empress Dowager wanted to bring Lu Wushuang into the palace, she would not bother to please her.
When he turned around to leave, he ran into Xu Huiru, who had also come to see the Empress Dowager.
Lu Wushuang immediately straightened her back, raised her chin slightly, and stared at him coldly.
Xu Huiru curtsied, "Greetings, Imperial Consort."
"Sister Xu is not in Xinhe Palace at this time. Why are you here?" Lu Wushuang hated Xu Huiru, but she already knew that she could not show her dissatisfaction at will. She was the Imperial Consort. There was no need to care about other women who were inferior to her.
"I am going to pay my respects to the Empress Dowager. I did not expect Imperial Consort Lu to be so kind to the Empress Dowager." Xu Huiru said with a smile. Her tone was even more respectful and polite.
Lu Wushuang smiled, "That is natural. I am the role model of the concubines in the palace. If I cannot be more filial than you, wouldn't I be the head of the four palaces?"
Now that there was no Empress in the palace, Lu Wushuang was naturally the highest-ranking concubine. Xu Huiru listened to this and just nodded with a smile, "Imperial Consort is right."
"I advise you not to disturb the Empress Dowager. She may not want to see you." Lu Wushuang's tone was a little angry.
Xu Huiru smiled, "I am already here. Even if the Empress Dowager is busy, it is still a token of my sincerity."
Lu Wushuang disliked hypocritical people like Xu Huiru the most. "Do as you wish!"
"I will not see you off, Imperial Consort." Xu Huiru bowed slightly.
"Let's go." Lu Wushuang turned her head and walked away. After a few steps, she stopped again and whispered to Qiu Yan, "Did the Empress Dowager see her?"
Xu Huiru stood outside the Palace of Compassionate Peace for a while. Aunt Cheng came out from inside and welcomed her in with a smile.
The Empress Dowager came out of the temple hall and looked at Xu Huiru with a smile, "Imperial Consort Xian, didn't I tell you not to come here every day? I know your heart."
"Recently, I have been helping you copy the scriptures. I feel that my heart has calmed down a lot." Xu Huiru stepped forward and held the Empress Dowager's arm. "Empress Dowager, I will recite scriptures with you in the future."
The Empress Dowager chuckled, "How can that be? You are still young. If you have nothing to do, think more about how to care for the Emperor. Give birth to a fat boy as soon as possible. You can't think about reciting scriptures. "
Xu Huiru shyly bowed her head, "Empress Dowager, what are you talking about?"
"Although the Emperor doesn't speak much, he is actually not difficult to get along with. You have to care for the Emperor more. He will naturally understand your heart." The Empress Dowager was very satisfied with Xu Huiru. Since she entered the palace, she had been neither arrogant nor impetuous. Even when the Emperor went to her palace the most, she still went to the Palace of Compassionate Peace to pay her respects as usual.
Such a woman was very suitable to live in the palace. The Empress Dowager also liked her gentle and dignified temperament. It would be better if the Emperor also liked her.
"His Majesty is busy every day. I only hope that when the Emperor comes to the harem, I can have a comfortable place to rest." Xu Huiru said softly.
The Empress Dowager nodded with satisfaction, "You are right to think so."
Xu Huiru smiled and said, "Empress Dowager, when I came here just now, I saw that the flowers in the Imperial Garden are blooming very well. Tomorrow, I will accompany you to enjoy the flowers."
"Tomorrow, I will go to the Hundred Flower Garden …" The Empress Dowager paused. She thought that she wanted to take Lu Yaoyao to the Hundred Flower Garden tomorrow. If Xu Huiru went with her, she could also take the Emperor with her. Let the Emperor thank Xu Huiru for the opportunity to get along with Xu Huiru.
"Consort Xu Xian, if you have nothing to do tomorrow, come with me to the Hundred Flower Garden to enjoy the flowers." The Empress Dowager said.
The corner of Xu Huiru's mouth rose slightly. She bowed her head and said, "Yes, Empress Dowager."
Somehow, this matter reached the ears of Lu Wushuang. Lu Wushuang was so angry that she almost went berserk.
"Xu Huiru!" Lu Wushuang gritted her teeth. She really underestimated this bitch. Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager did not want to see her, but was willing to see that bitch. She even asked her to go to the Hundred Flower Garden tomorrow!
"Empress, don't be angry. You still have to find a way to make the Empress Dowager like you." Aunt He tried to persuade her.
Lu Wushuang clenched her fists. "I will not lose to her."
