The maidservant is too charming. I want to help her become the queen.

"Humph!"

The queen smiled contemptuously, her eyes as cold as the iron railings covered with frost in winter. Anyone who said the wrong thing again would lose his tongue in the next second.

Having offended the second-in-command in the palace, Lu Qingqing wanted to escape.

However, the queen did not give her this opportunity.

The emperor was doting on you these days just for the sake of novelty. Don't forget how I taught you in the beginning!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Lu Qingqing hurriedly explained, "The Queen has helped me, and I will never forget this kindness. I have lived my life only to help the Queen to preserve her favor and share her worries, and I will never forget it."

The queen was suspicious. Since Lu Qingqing was favored, she had said such words of loyalty countless times. Lu Qingqing memorized these few words by heart and could recite them in one breath.

But this time, the Queen was not satisfied with Lu Qingqing's words. "Lu Qingqing, to consolidate your favor and share your worries, you must not only remember, but also do it. Do you understand?!"

Lu Qingqing had no choice but to agree, "I understand."

After leaving Fengyi Palace, Lu Qingqing was extremely depressed.

The Queen was so angry that the Emperor must have not visited her in the past few days. The Queen was too embarrassed to invite the Emperor, so she asked herself to ask for his favor on her behalf.

Erxi saw that Lu Qingqing was in a bad mood and said indignantly, "Since the young lady is unwilling to seek favor for the queen, why not just not go? Anyway, the queen has no leverage over us."

Lu Qingqing smiled bitterly, "Erxi, when I was a palace maid, I had already seen the Queen's methods. If I hadn't agreed just now, our palace would probably have no food for the next month."

"But my lady, if the Queen treats us like this, can't we tell the Emperor?" Erxi asked in confusion.

"There are 365 days in a year. How many days can the emperor come to the harem? How long can he pamper me? The queen tortures me with daily trivial matters such as food, clothing and daily life. Even if I tell the emperor and he believes it, he will not punish the queen severely. If I complain to the emperor every time, I am afraid that I will be disliked by the emperor soon."

Erxi nodded, not quite understanding.

"Don't just stand there. Look at the clothes and jewelry that the Queen has given me. Pick out the most gorgeous and valuable ones and help me change my clothes and put on my makeup."

According to Lu Qingqing's request, Erxi dressed her up again.

Lu Qingqing's appearance is charming and enchanting, and her figure is even more fascinating. She has a slender waist that can be held in one hand, and her breasts are round, full and juicy.

Normally, in order not to attract the attention of other concubines, she only wore simple clothes and never made up. Now that she was carefully dressed up, she looked even more charming and graceful.

"Let's go, let's go meet the emperor."

Lu Qingqing told Erxi to take a lunch box and bring a portion of the latest matcha red bean milk ice.

When she arrived at the Qianqing Palace, Lu Qingqing was stopped outside the palace by the chief eunuch, Eunuch Qing.

"Noble Lady Lu, the Emperor was discussing matters with his ministers just now and got so angry that he even threw the teacup and refused to let the servants in to serve him. I guess he's still angry now. If you go in now, you'll be in trouble. It's better for you to come back later." Eunuch Qing had a worried look on his face and tried to persuade her kindly.

After hearing this, Lu Qingqing turned around and was about to leave. At this moment, Li Xuansheng's impatient voice came from the hall.

"Who is outside the palace?"

Eunuch Qing hurried into the palace to report, "Your Majesty, it was Concubine Lu who brought some snacks to see you."

Li Xuansheng's eyes lit up and he put down the memorial in his hand, "Let her in."

Lu Qingqing entered the hall and saw Li Xuansheng sitting on the dragon throne, supporting his head with one hand and playing with a jade pendant with the other, staring at her lovingly.

Lu Qingqing walked forward slowly and gracefully, placing the food box on the side of the desk, pretending to be proud.

"Your Majesty, why are you looking at me like this? It makes me feel shy~"

When Li Xuansheng saw the beauty in front of him blushing and her eyes moving when she was shy, she was very charming. He pulled her into his arms and let her lean against his thigh.

"Qingqing is dressed so beautifully today, you are not here just to bring me some snacks, are you?"

As he spoke, Li Xuansheng moved closer and closer, buried his handsome face in Lu Qingqing's neck, and took a deep breath.

"It smells so good."

At the same time, a pair of large hands with distinct joints wandered around the waist, making it feel itchy and tingling. From time to time, they moved to the chest, probing the two soft lumps under the outer clothes.

Lu Qingqing felt the changes between her legs and suddenly remembered that she had not yet finished her important business for the day, so she quickly dodged and jumped off the man's legs.

A pair of jade hands opened the food box and brought it to Li Xuansheng.

"I was conferred the title of noble today, so I specially made a bowl of matcha red bean milk ice cream to relieve the heat and express my gratitude to the emperor."

The honey-refined red beans are crystal clear, and the milk snow ice is cool and refreshing, which goes well with the slightly bitter matcha.

This is Lu Qingqing's favorite dessert in modern times, and it is easy to reproduce. It can not only relieve the heat, but also calm the emperor's heat.

Li Xuansheng was indeed attracted by this novel summer ice dessert, his mouth was watered and his appetite was opened.

"I didn't expect my Qingqing to have such cooking skills. It tastes good and is thoughtful."

Li Xuansheng enjoyed the meal, and Lu Qingqing's goal was half achieved.

She took the opportunity to say, "The Queen also gave me gifts. The clothes, hairpins and rings I wear are given by the Queen. But today I am here to express my gratitude. I see that the Queen is seriously pregnant and cannot eat raw or cold food. Otherwise, I would like to make some for the Queen to taste."

"Huh? Is the pregnancy reaction severe? How's the queen's condition?" Li Xuansheng put down the bowl in his hand, his face full of anxiety.

"When I went to express my gratitude, the Queen Mother kept vomiting. I wonder how she is doing now... How about Your Majesty go and see the Queen Mother?" Lu Qingqing asked cautiously.

"Well," Li Xuansheng said without hesitation, "You go back to the palace first. I'll go see the queen."

After saying that, he immediately called Eunuch Qing, "He Qing - go to Fengyi Palace!"

On the desk, there was still half a cup of Matcha red bean milk ice cream left, lying there quietly, a little melted.

Such a delicious dessert...

He didn't even finish his meal before he hurried off to the Queen, truly a friendship that only childhood sweethearts could hope to have.

Lu Qingqing had requested the emperor's favor for the queen. Given her personality, she would have been secretly delighted at the success, but this time, she inexplicably felt a bitterness in her heart.

What a pity.

She picked up the bowl and finished the remaining half bowl of milk ice. Fortunately, the bitterness in her heart was not too much, and was just offset by the sweetness of the milk ice.

In the harem, the emperor is the big boss and the queen is the second boss. Whoever they can make happy can protect their safety.

Lu Qingqing simply sorted out her slightly confused thoughts and tried to minimize the impact of the emotional ups and downs. There were still many things to face in the future, and emotions always took priority after survival.

Once you have sorted out your emotions, you will no longer worry.

At nightfall, as expected, Lu Qingqing was lying alone in bed, and the emperor stayed in Fengyi Palace - the mission was successfully completed.

Now the Queen should be satisfied.
