"Alright, this old servant can only say this much, I won't stay here to bother you two anymore." "I only hope that Prime Minister and Madam can think over the words this old servant has brought for the Empress." Seeing that the two of them understood what she meant, Gui mama did not say anymore and turned to leave.
Prime Minister Liu sent servants to respectfully send Gui mama out of the Prime Minister's Residence. After confirming that the person had walked far away, the Prime Minister Liu dragged his wife into the Inner Palace's room, and ordered all the servants to retreat far away before closing the door for a secret conversation.
"Old master, why has this Gui mama come today …" "Did the empress already know something?"
Prime Minister Liu paced back and forth in his room, saying: "I don't think so. Gui mama only came to beat us up, to make us stand in formation. If the empress already knows about the matter between us and the Ninth Prince, it shouldn't be just for the Gui mama to say these words. "
Madam Liu's brows relaxed slightly. "It looks like the empress is suspecting us as well. We have to be more careful."
Prime Minister Liu nodded his head, "This matter concerns the future of our Liu Family. We must be extremely careful. Madam, you can go ahead and make the arrangements. If we are to come into contact with the Ninth Prince, we must send some new faces from the capital. Do not let anyone find out anything about our Liu Family. "
"Master, don't worry. I am unable to help with matters of the imperial court. There is no need for Master to worry about the employment of people." Madam Liu also knew that this was not something to be careless about and solemnly agreed.
"Sure." I will find some time to personally meet with the Ninth Prince and inform him of this matter. "Our next cooperation will be to redesign our plans for this sudden development." The Prime Minister Liu sighed helplessly. As expected, the Empress was very well-informed, and it was just that they had been in contact with the Ninth Prince a little.
Madam Liu also knew that the empress was suspicious by nature. Normally, she would rather kill by mistake than let a person who might harm her get away. Today, she suspected that the Liu Family would be involved in all sorts of troubles for the Liu Family tomorrow. But things had already gotten to this point. Unless they clearly joined the empress's faction, there was no way to dispel the empress's suspicions towards them.
The two of them thought about the situation with Liu Chugrong and gritted their teeth, not giving up this opportunity to work with the Ninth Prince.
On the other side, Liu Chugrong, who had finally gotten some free time, was taking La Mei for a leisurely walk in the palace. She did not know that the Empress had already found her home. She had always been fantasizing about her own glory after becoming the Queen.
"Lamei, do you know which part of the palace has the most beautiful scenery?" Liu Chu Rong proudly raised his head, looking at the beautiful scenery in the garden and asked.
"Empress, is this the Lotus Pond? I heard that these lotuses came from the foreign lands, and that the Imperial Palace is the only place where they could be found in the capital. " Lamei didn't know why his wife would suddenly ask such a pointless question, but he obediently answered.
"Shallow." Liu Chu Rong snorted, "Which part of the palace is lacking in beautiful scenery? The most beautiful scenery, of course, is in the heart of the Emperor. "
Lamei looked confused. He didn't understand the meaning behind Liu Chugrong's words.
Liu Chugrong looked at La Mei's expression and knew that she didn't understand the meaning behind her words. He didn't care about it and just smiled to make her want to go by herself. Before the matter had been settled, she had put on a front that was quite impressive. She did not know that this attitude would not be considered as arrogant by her personal maid. If anyone in the palace were to hear this, they would only laugh at her stupidity.
Liu Chugrong's heart was filled with longing for his beautiful future. From how respectful he would be towards the Palace People, to how the Emperor would be gentle to her, to the point of inattentiveness, he was like a small palace maid running into him.
"Ouch!" The palace maid seemed to be in a hurry and didn't notice the two people in front of his. This time, Liu Chugrong was hit hard.
Rumei quickly helped his master up carefully. He didn't have time to see who hit Liu Chugrong, he just thought that his master should not be hurt by the impact.
When the young palace maid saw who it was, he was frightened out of his wits. Although Liu Chugrong wasn't a particularly favored concubine, she was still the Prime Minister's daughter and held a very high position in the palace. She couldn't afford to offend a small palace maid.
"Your Highness, please forgive me. This servant truly had no intention of bumping into you. I was only called over by my master, so I was in a hurry. I didn't see the person clearly, please forgive me." The young palace maid frantically knelt on the ground, begging for forgiveness with a trembling voice.
Liu Chugrong's fall was not light. With a rub of her palm on the ground, a small piece of skin was removed. She, who had never suffered any injuries, was rendered speechless by the pain. After Lamei helped her up and helped her up, she finally recovered. Hearing that damned servant still telling her a bunch of reasons, she became so angry that she wanted to drag her out and kill her!
In the palace, when beating a dog, one only had to look at the owner. If the palace maid offended someone, he would only dare to say "master of his own clan", and he wouldn't be able to get his title back. It seemed that he was also a nobody.
She looked coldly at the palace maid who was kneeling on the ground, trembling. Looking at her injured hand, she berated: "How dare you! "Why are you here in the palace …"
Just as he was about to place a crime of uneasiness on this maid and teach his a lesson for no reason, Lamei pulled on his clothes from behind.
Liu Chu Rong was still rational after he had recovered from the initial effort. He stopped when he was stopped by La Mei. In such a situation, there must be something important going on. She clearly understood her own personal maid. Sure enough, she cast a glance at her surroundings out of the corner of her eye and realized that Fu Yuheng was walking towards her.
In the past few days, she had gone out of her way to gain some favor with Fu Yuheng. If he were to see her teach this palace maid a lesson today, he would definitely be displeased with her. If Fu Yuheng had a bad impression of her because of this trivial matter, then the gains would not make up for the losses.
Therefore, she changed the subject of her words. Her voice was still cold, but there was no longer any anger in it as she said, "To act so rashly in the palace, sooner or later, you will lose your head due to offending others. Fortunately, the person you knocked down today was me. If it was another person, perhaps you would have received a good meal today. Just take today's matter as a lesson, and remember to pay attention to the road in the future. "
The palace maid was stunned. He had originally thought that he would be unable to escape this calamity when he saw how furious the Empress was. He had not expected this development. Of course, she was happy, so he thanked him and left.
After the palace maid left, Liu Chugrong stole a glance at Fu Yuheng, who was standing on the side and secretly observing them. As expected, he saw him nod in gratification.
