Refusing to let love take a back seat, the scumbag emperor actually seeks favor every day

Before Zhao Chengyuan was sent away, Wei Yixiu came in accompanied by servants.

Su Manman appeared calm on the surface, but she was wailing inside.

"Oh, heaven! Oh, earth! Can't these people who require so much effort to deal with come back when I am in better health?"

She is awake now, but her physical condition is not very good. Palace fighting requires brainpower and physical effort.

After yelling in his heart, he still had to look at the two of them as if nothing had happened.

She didn't expect Wei Yixiu to come to her house suddenly, and Zhao Chengyuan was also surprised.

"What does Concubine Wei want to see the Queen for?"

Without waiting for Su Manman to speak, he spoke first with such a calm expression that it was impossible to tell his emotion.

Although he didn't care much about the affairs of the harem, he knew that Wei Yixiu was someone close to Concubine Li.

At the same time, she also knew that the problem between the two of them this time was caused by her.

But she was also a victim this time, so he didn't pursue the matter any further.

Concubine Wei, who came over, didn't expect to run into him.

Facing his question, her expression seemed a little unnatural.

After paying respect according to the rules, she bowed her head and replied in a timid voice, "I heard that the Queen has woken up, so I came here specially... specially to pay my respects and regards."

She has been in the palace for more than half a year, but she has not had many opportunities to see Zhao Chengyuan.

And every time I saw him from afar, he always looked dignified and had the serious attitude of a superior.

Now that they were so close, she was a little afraid of him.

Zhao Chengyuan looked at her and said "Oh" without any emotion, "Did the imperial concubine ask you to come?"

As soon as he said this, a hint of surprise flashed across Wei Yixue's eyes.

Su Manman also felt that it must be because the person sent by Li Yufei to invite Zhao Chengyuan did not bring him for a long time, so she replaced him with someone else.

But Wei Yixiu denied it after being stunned for a moment.

"In reply to your Majesty, I am here to visit the Queen on my own behalf and not on behalf of anyone else."

Her words were spoken sincerely, without revealing any flaws.

It was a very common thing for concubines to come and visit the queen when she was sick.

After these two simple sentences, Zhao Chengyuan didn't ask any more questions.

"Noble Lady Wei is here. She just happened to be able to chat with me for a while. Your Majesty doesn't need to worry. Please go check on the Imperial Concubine first. She must be waiting anxiously."

Although she didn't really want to pay attention to Concubine Wei, she didn't want Zhao Chengyuan to stay here even more.

Who knows what Li Yuwan, who hasn't seen him show up for a long time, is planning to do to her behind her back.

Her intention to drive people away was too obvious.

Zhao Chengyuan was unhappy about being disliked by his own queen, but he didn't show it.

Of course he could force himself to stay, but when he thought about Su Manman saying that he wanted to stay, he would give her a reputation as narrow-minded, so he gave up.

Her queen is not that kind of person.

She has suffered enough misfortune, and I cannot let her be criticized again because of my willfulness.

"In that case, I will go to the Imperial Concubine and come back another day."

When he turned to leave, his eyes fell on Wei Yixue intentionally or unintentionally.

Wei Yixiu clearly felt the warning in his eyes and was so frightened that she didn't dare to breathe.

As soon as Zhao Chengyuan left, Su Manman stopped pretending.

"You come to see Ben..."

"I am only here to thank the Queen for saving my life a few days ago. I have no ill intentions!"

Su Manman just opened her mouth, but Wei Yixiu suddenly knelt down in front of her and took the initiative to tell her the real purpose of her visit.

"It was my fault that I was ignorant and offended Concubine Li that day, which caused you to be implicated. I don't ask you to forgive my mistakes in the past, I just hope you can give me a chance to thank you."

Having said that, he kowtowed to her again.

The little girl who always followed Li Yuwan and made trouble for her suddenly became so polite that Su Manman was at a loss.

She wasn't sure whether this person was sincerely thanking her or had other motives.

To be safe, she decided to wait and see.

"You should get up and talk first."

Concubine Wei, who was helped up by Qiu Ren, stood up and looked at Su Manman, who was sick on the bed, with an extremely embarrassed expression.

When she learned the truth from Wenzhi afterwards, she never expected that the person who would help her in the end would be the queen she had always targeted.

However, Concubine Li, for whom she had always stood, severely punished herself because of an insignificant and unintentional remark.

"This incident is not your fault. I don't take it to heart. You don't have to worry about it."

Su Manman looked at her with a casual tone.

From the moment she decided to help her, she did it from the heart and didn't expect any reward at all.

However, looking at Wei Yixiu standing there, looking a little at a loss, I still felt a little pity for her.

She was just one of the concubines of Wei Shouyi, the Minister of War. She was neither favored nor valued in the Wei family.

Logically, she couldn't enter the palace.

It was just that the legitimate daughter of the Wei family, who was originally scheduled to be sent to the palace, fell seriously ill before the selection, so she, a concubine's daughter of marriageable age, was temporarily adopted by Madam Wei to fill the vacancy.

Even though she is now known as a legitimate daughter, she has lived as a concubine's daughter since she was a child, so she is definitely not as knowledgeable, experienced and well-educated as a real legitimate daughter.

She was not wrong to enter the palace and get close to Li Yuwan as soon as possible, thinking that she could help her.

The only mistake she made was that she really believed Li Yuwan completely and was used as a gun by her without reservation.

"If you have nothing else to do, go back first. When you leave, remember to let people know that you are here to laugh at me."

When Concubine Wei heard this, she was stunned and didn't understand what she meant for a moment.

Su Manman smiled calmly.

Wei Yixiu took the initiative to come to her to thank her and admit her mistake. She must have realized that Li Yuwan was not that reliable to her.

But now, it is not appropriate for her to cut off ties with Li Yuwan at this time.

"You are not strong enough to protect yourself now. If you rashly escape from her control, she will not let you have an easy time."

As soon as she said this, Concubine Wei reacted.

Li Yuwan holds a grudge, and she knows it best.

Moreover, she had helped Li Yuwan offend many people during this period. If she stopped following her, others would not let her go.

She would continue to stay by her side as if nothing had happened. Even though she would suffer a little, others would at least not do anything to her for the sake of the imperial concubine.

Wei Yixiu realized belatedly that she and Li Yuwan were tied to the same rope and could not get away just because she wanted to.

Su Manman saw her face turn pale and knew that she understood what she said.

"My ability is limited, so I can only give you this much advice. What you do next depends on your own luck. Come back."

Wei Yixiu was very smart. She knew that if Su Manman wanted to laugh at her, she could simply not remind her of these things.

She was grateful, but also felt a little guilty.

"Thank you, Queen, for your advice today. If I offend anyone in the future, I will punish myself."

Having said that, he kowtowed to her again before leaving.

Sure enough, she was so polite in the room just now, but as soon as she left Fengwu Palace, she immediately started to speak ill of Su Manman to the palace maids around her in a arrogant manner.

The palace servants passing by thought that she just came to laugh at Su Manman.
