Ma'am, she only wants to be promoted

Chapter 16

"Okay." Xu Lingyan replied sullenly, and stopped talking.

Lu Rui ignored her, walked up to Lu Wanning, and asked Lu Wanning with concern: "Sister Lu, are you feeling better?"

Lu Wanning replied: "Thank you sister Lu for your concern, she is much better now."

"That's good, that's good." Lu Rui said two words in a row, that's good, and then went to wash up while humming a ditty.

After Lu Rui went out, Xu Lingyan asked Lu Wanning a little puzzled, "Sister Lu, do you think that Sister Lu seems to be in a particularly good mood tonight?"

Lu Wanning smiled and said, "Maybe it's because the night is so beautiful tonight."

"Is that so?" Xu Lingyan was suspicious.

Of course not, Lu Wanning said in her heart.Lu Rui should have successfully met the emperor, and maybe even talked to him, otherwise she couldn't be in such a good mood.

Lu Rui's good mood lasted for several days.

I don't know if it's because of the sweetness she got from Lu Wanning. In the next few days, she stared at Lu Wanning very closely, and she was also extraordinarily attentive to Lu Wanning.

So, when Huanxi appeared next to Lu Wanning, she noticed it right away. .

The first time Lu Wanning saw Huanxi, she glanced at Lu Rui unobtrusively. Seeing that the excited expression on Lu Rui's face couldn't be concealed, Lu Wanning couldn't help laughing, because she believed that she could get a bargain from her ,right?

That's okay, since she likes to take advantage of her, let's continue to do so.

When Lu Wanning went out, she paid special attention to it, and when she saw Lu Rui following out quietly, she stopped caring.

The news brought to Lu Wanning by the joy this time was that the emperor was going to enjoy the moon at the Moon Pavilion in the Imperial Garden at night, and he had Xu Jieyu as his companion.

Hearing this, Lu Wanning frowned slightly, "What does the imperial concubine want me to do?"

Since the emperor has ordered Xu Jieyu to accompany him, is it possible that the imperial concubine wants her to face Xu Jieyu directly?

Huanxi glanced around, and said in a low voice: "Miss Fifth, don't panic, the imperial concubine just wants Miss Fifth to show your face in front of the emperor in advance, and it's not for Miss Fifth to rob Xu Jieyu directly, and even if It's Miss Fifth, you have nothing to worry about if you directly rob someone with Xu Jieyu, a little Xu Jieyu, the imperial concubine has not paid attention to her."

The rule of the Yong Dynasty was to have a general election every three years. It was already deep autumn when the emperor ascended the throne, so the general election was scheduled for the second year of Mingde.

Xu Jieyu's boudoir name is Xu Jingshu, Xu Jingshu is the concubine daughter of the prefect of Suzhou, she is the first batch of beautiful women who were elected to the palace in the second year of Mingde, and she is only a fifth-rank Jieyu in six years, so it can be seen that even if she is loved , there is not much love, let alone family background, a common knowledge in a place can't be compared with a noble family like Zhongyonghou's Mansion, no wonder Lu Wanyun doesn't take her seriously.

However, Lu Wanyun didn't take Xu Jieyu seriously, but she had to take Xu Jieyu seriously, and she was unwilling to follow Lu Wanyun's arrangement, let alone make a decision right now. It looks like they are trying their best to fight for favor.

The expression on Lu Wanning's face changed a few times, and finally she nodded slightly, and said, "I see."

Smiling happily, she comforted Lu Wanning: "Miss Fifth, just act boldly, with the imperial concubine supporting you, Xu Jieyu dare not do anything to you."

Lu Wanning nodded again to show she understood.

After Huanxi left, Lu Wanning looked at the corner, there was no one there, and she didn't know how much Lu Rui had heard and what she would do.

If Lu Rui can act according to what she wants, then she can save trouble. If Lu Rui dare not go to the Royal Garden tonight because of Xu Jieyu, then she will have a little trouble on her side.

After Lu Wanning returned, although Lu Rui was still attentive to Lu Wanning, there was no strange look on her face, and she had improved a lot compared to the last time.

Lu Wanning ate her lunch calmly, and then took a nap for half an hour as usual.

And when Lu Wanning fell asleep, Lu Rui was nowhere to be seen. Lu Wanning knew from Xu Lingyan that Lu Rui felt that the room was stuffy not long after she fell asleep and went out. As for where to go, Lu Rui didn't tell her.

Lu Wanning shook her head in her heart, Lu Rui really didn't miss any chance to meet the emperor, knowing that the emperor was with Xu Jieyu tonight, she didn't even care.

She also didn't want to think about it, the reason why Lu Wanyun dared to let her show up in front of the emperor in front of Xu Jieyu was because she was a girl from Zhongyonghou's mansion and a cousin of the imperial concubine, no matter how much Xu Jieyu hated her, she would not What about her, but Lu Rui, a beautiful girl who has no support in the palace and has not yet been formally canonized, will Xu Jieyu take action against her.

However, this is a good thing for her.

Lu Wanning reckoned that after Lu Rui went out, she might not come back before night, as for whether she could come back after night, it might depend on luck.

Sure enough, Lu Rui didn't come back until dinner time. Xu Lingyan opened her mouth to say something, but seeing that Lu Wanning and Weng Qian didn't take it seriously, she swallowed back the words that came to her lips. I remember what Lu Rui said two days ago when she came back late, so she doesn't have to worry about her.

After dinner, Lu Wanning stood up and said, "I've eaten a little too much, I'll go for a walk to digest."

"Sister Lu..." Xu Lingyan wanted to say that I would go with you, but before she could say anything, Lu Wanning had already left the house.

Weng Qian glanced at Xu Lingyan, who was still slightly open, and said coldly: "Idiot."

Weng Qian's voice was too low for Xu Lingyan to hear, she turned to look at Weng Qian, and asked cautiously, "Sister Weng, what did you say?"

Weng Qian didn't pay attention to Xu Lingyan.

Xu Lingyan waited for a while but didn't wait for Weng Qian's answer, sighed softly, turned around and went out the door, Weng Qian treats people too coldly, and after living together for so long, Weng Xi should not just joke with them, it's just good I have never said anything nice, either sarcastic or ignoring people.

Lu Wanning and Lu Rui were not there, Xu Lingyan was not at all willing to stay in the same room with Weng Qian, and always felt panicked staying in the same room with her.

Lu Wanning left the residence, first walked around Chuxiu Palace, and estimated that it was almost time, then walked slowly along the palace road all the way to the Imperial Garden.

The moonlight is good tonight, even if Lu Wanning didn't light up the lantern, she wouldn't be unable to see clearly.

Walking outside the imperial garden, Lu Wanning stayed for a while, and turned back before entering the imperial garden.

When she went back, Xu Lingyan hadn't come back yet. Lu Wanning sat at the table and poured herself a cup of tea. After resting for a while, Xu Lingyan ran back from the outside in a panic.

Seeing Lu Wanning sitting in the room well, Xu Lingyan heaved a sigh of relief, patted her chest and said, "Sister Lu, when did you come back? You scared me to death. I still think something happened to you?"
