Chapter 338 Living Together
"So what? What can I do?"
Alanruo swept all the fruits and snacks on the small table beside her to the ground, feeling very upset and at a loss.
"It's okay. We are a chat group for demon concubines. You are one of us. Of course, you want to be a demon concubine, hahahaha... Why do you need so much reputation? Enjoy yourself now, sister."
The ending of Li Ji's words rose slightly, like honey wrapped in wine, sweet and intoxicating, with a hint of laziness.
"Why do you care so much? What's your ability? What's your job? You don't want to be a virtuous queen. There are already 'virtuous concubines' in the harem. We are the enchanting concubines and the favored concubines. We just need to win the heart of His Majesty.
As for the hostility of other women and the criticism of court officials, they were just music we used to liven up the atmosphere."
Zhao Hede's coquettish and angry voice was filled with regret for Alanruo.
Alanruo's brain is not even as good as her stupid sister's. Under the influence of them, she hasn't made any progress. Well, let's wait and see. Maybe she just hasn't figured it out yet.
"If you think too much, wanting this and that, you will get nothing."
Bao Si's cold voice sounded a little dull and melancholy, as if she was thinking of something in the past or someone.
"Sisters, now that you're saying that, why should I bother getting pregnant?"
Alanruo's golden-blue eyes widened. She flipped the small table in front of her to the ground, stood up, picked up a horsewhip, and ran out of the tent angrily.
"It's just a matter of luck. In the royal family, you should give birth if you can. What if you give birth to an emperor who can bring you and your family to heaven? What are you going to do, Alanruo?"
Li Ji said as a matter of course, and when she saw Alanruo running out impulsively, she hurriedly called her.
"What are you going to do? Didn't my sisters tell me to do whatever I want? I'm going to go and kill some chickens and dogs to vent my anger. Anyway, the prince in my belly can protect me."
When Alanruo saw the guard standing at the door, she whipped him with her horsewhip.
Whether they served her closely or not, she couldn't vent her anger. She couldn't stand it anyway, so she went back and replaced all the palace servants.
She didn't care whether she would be retaliated by these palace servants or have them spit in her food or something disgusting.
After doing that, how can I keep them around to serve me?
Even if the number of palace maids and eunuchs around each master outside the palace is fixed and cannot be replaced, the worst that can happen is that she can find a reason to stay with the virtuous concubine Fu Mengli, who is also pregnant with the royal heir, and use her palace maids and eunuchs.

"Your Majesty, His Majesty and our Fifth Prince have returned safely." Meihua hurried into the tent and said excitedly to Fu Mengli.
"That's good. Your Majesty and Mingzhang are back safely. Qingxue, why are you frowning?" Fu Mengli asked directly when she saw Qingxue seemed to be hesitant to speak.
“It’s Concubine Lan. The hundreds of birds Concubine Lan wanted before have all died, and their feathers have become dull.
There are rumors outside that Concubine Lan has spread evil words to deceive Your Majesty, and asked the princes to catch live birds for her to pray for good luck. That is why our Fifth Prince came back so late today.
Sister Weixia just told me that the bonfire banquet hadn’t started yet, the palace servants were still slaughtering the prey, and Concubine Lan was causing trouble again.”
Qingxue frowned, took a deep breath, and continued, "The noble lady Lan asked Your Majesty to live with you, Your Majesty."
"Live with me?" Fu Mengli was stunned.
"Lady Lan said she had a stomachache this afternoon and she called out many times in her tent but no servants came to ask about it.
After enduring the pain, he personally whipped the palace maids and eunuchs with a horsewhip to punish them.
She said that those palace servants were negligent in their duties and were suspected of deliberately trying to harm her, so she didn't dare to stay in her own tent and wanted to come and keep you company, Your Majesty."
"Didn't Sister Imperial Concubine Yi help me reject it?"
She was pregnant and fearing that it would disturb the princess in her belly, she could not stand the killing of living creatures and never joined any gatherings.
Meihua answered quickly, "The Empress said a few words on your behalf. Imperial Concubine Yi, Imperial Concubine Hui, and Imperial Concubine Zhen said nothing. Imperial Concubine Yu, Imperial Concubine Shu, and Imperial Concubine Min spoke on behalf of Imperial Concubine Lan."
Shun Guiren was the queen's follower, and Meihua simply ignored her.
"So... Lady Lan has come to make the decision?" Fu Mengli sneered.
Qingxue and Meihua nodded at the same time.
