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

In the lotus garden.

Lu Panpan had not returned for a long time since she went out. It was almost time to go to bed, and Xiaotao was a little anxious. After all, Lu Panpan was her master's biological sister.

While helping Lu Qingqing wash and rinse, she asked:

"My lady, Miss Panpan has been out for a long time and has not returned yet. It is already late at night. Should we go out and look for her?"

After spending these few days together, Lu Panpan's intention of vying for favor and currying favor was obvious on the paper, and Lu Qingqing was not unaware of it.

This is not the first time he left without saying goodbye. Last time he went to Concubine Xian's place, and it is estimated that this time it is the same place.

"Don't worry, Tao."

"Lu Panpan's legs are on her body, so she can go wherever she wants."

"She doesn't want to stay in Ouxie Court. Should I still tie her up?"

Lu Qingqing faced the bronze mirror and carefully applied the homemade facial mask bit by bit with a wooden spoon.

After all, sisterly love can be severed, but daily maintenance cannot be severed.

When they first met, she treated Panpan as her own sister, but after seeing a few things, her heart gradually grew cold.

Xiaotao nodded.

She believed that the young lady had her reasons for doing so. Even if they were sisters, it was not her place as a servant to interfere in what happened.

She just needs to take care of her own mistress wholeheartedly.

Erxi made the bed in the bedroom. It was time for Lu Qingqing to apply her facial mask. She carefully washed off the mask and went to bed after completing the whole skin care routine.

"I'm going to rest first, you guys should go to sleep first too."

Xiaotao is on duty tonight.

Lu Qingqing slept on the bed in the inner bedroom, and Xiaotao slept in the warm room outside the bedroom.

When Erxi was about to leave, Lu Qingqing suddenly called her and gave her an extra instruction.

"Don't close the door to the Ouxie Courtyard tonight."

She still left a way for Lu Panpan to go home. As for whether Lu Panpan comes back or not, that is her own choice.

Lu Qingqing lay flat on the bed, her heart in turmoil.

I didn’t expect that Lu Panpan was closer to Concubine Xian than to myself.

In the quiet night, Lu Qingqing sighed slowly, repeating silently in her heart.

"Let go of helping others and respect the fate of others."

She persuaded herself to let it go, and after adjusting her mood, she turned over and fell into a deep sleep.

………………

Inside the Mingzheng Hall.

The candlelight in the room gradually dimmed. The candles in the four corners of the hall had been burning for half the night and were about to burn out, with the wicks making crackling sounds.

Li Xuansheng finally put down the last memorial. He rubbed his temple tiredly and called out lazily:

"He Qing, bring me a cup of tea."

Drinking tea after government affairs has always been Li Xuansheng's habit. No matter how late it is, he always likes to end a busy night with a cup of tea.

But today was a little different. He sat in the wheelchair and waited for a long time, but he still didn't see He Qing.

He was a little impatient, and his voice was even louder than before.

"He Qing!"

At this moment, the door outside the hall was pushed open with a creak, and a green figure flashed in. In the interlaced candlelight, Li Xuansheng thought he was dazzled.

Why is He Qing dressed so elegantly?

He collected himself.

Only then did he realize that the person who came in to serve tea was a woman. The woman lowered her head and paced slowly forward.

He thought the woman was a maid from Mingzheng Palace, so he withdrew his gaze, sat on the dragon chair and closed his eyes to rest.

At this time, Lu Panpan, who was holding the teacup, was extremely nervous.

Although she had met the emperor several times at her sister's residence, this was the first time she was alone with the emperor.

Li Xuansheng looks cold on the outside, but Lu Panpan has seen how he interacts with his sister, and the emperor is very tender when dealing with women.

Lu Panpan thought so in her heart while encouraging herself. When she saw that the emperor was resting with his eyes closed, she gradually became more courageous.

She placed the teacup on the desk quietly and did not leave. Instead, she moved closer to Li Xuansheng.

Although Li Xuansheng closed his eyes, he could clearly sense the woman approaching.

But as Lu Panpan got closer, Li Xuansheng still closed his eyes and suddenly said:

"Be bold!"

The sudden scolding startled Lu Panpan. She originally wanted to walk behind Li Xuansheng, rub his temples, or pat his shoulders, and then take off their clothes.

Unexpectedly, "bold" was the first word Li Xuansheng said to her.

Lu Panpan's knees went weak and she fell to her knees.

"My daughter dare not."

Li Xuansheng began to doubt.

Servant?

He slowly opened his eyes, lowered his eyes to look at the woman kneeling on the ground, and immediately recognized the face that was 50% similar to Lu Qingqing.

“Lu Panpan, why is it you?”

Lu Panpan was overjoyed when her name was called.

It turns out that the emperor has always cared about me!

She lowered her head shyly and answered delicately:

"Your Majesty, it was my sister who asked me to serve you."

Lu Panpan didn't dare to say that she was allowed in only after she begged the virtuous concubine, for fear that Li Xuansheng would see her intention of currying favor with the rich and powerful, so she made up a random excuse.

Li Xuansheng became angry instantly.

elder sister!

It seems that Lu Qingqing asked her sister to come and serve!

What does she mean? !

Li Xuansheng was annoyed. He had been busy with state affairs these days and had no time to go to Ouxie Court. Was it necessary for him to push his sister in front of him to curry favor?

He stretched out his big hand, pinched Lu Panpan's chin, and forced her little face up.

He looked at the face in front of him, which was somewhat similar to Lu Qingqing, and felt annoyed.

But Lu Panpan misunderstood what he meant.

She thought that Li Xuansheng's sudden physical contact meant that he accepted her, so Lu Panpan boldly took off her outer robe and climbed towards Li Xuansheng with her bare arms.

Lu Panpan stared at Li Xuansheng with her pair of tender eyes, trying to show off her charm in all aspects.

"Your Majesty~"

When Li Xuansheng heard her acting coquettishly, he instantly got goose bumps all over his body and shook her hand away.

He was really unlucky today. He was taken advantage of by a woman.

As a result, he felt even more upset and simply blamed everything on Lu Qingqing.

This Lu Qingqing, what does she think I am? A breeding pig?!

He had already put all his energy into Lu Qingqing in the past few days. It had only been a few days, so how could he have any extra energy to spend on others? !

It was obvious that Lu Qingqing was deliberately trying to make him angry.

Lu Panpan was terrified and panicked when she was pushed to the ground. She didn't understand why the emperor was so resistant to her? She had dressed up carefully and actively flattered him. She was obviously a beauty.

Lu Panpan was unwilling to give up, and subconsciously reached out to pull Li Xuansheng's sleeve, trying to beg for mercy from him.

She came to the emperor tonight on her own initiative. If the emperor returned her intact to him, wouldn't it be too embarrassing?

Unexpectedly, Li Xuansheng suddenly stood up from the dragon throne and walked straight to the bedroom without looking back.

Before leaving, he did not forget to kill Lu Panpan again.

"Since you like serving others so much, why don't you stay in this palace and be a maid?"

When Lu Panpan heard this, it was like a bolt from the blue.

She is here to be a concubine, not a female official!

But she was helpless and could only stare blankly at Li Xuansheng's gradually receding back.
