Taotao's face immediately darkened, and she took a step forward without hesitation and stood in front of Su Zhan, "How dare you, slaves like you can discuss the affairs of ladies?"
The maids who were trying to please Concubine Jade were startled. They looked up and saw Su Zhan's face, and their expressions immediately stiffened.
They spoke ill of people behind their backs and were caught red-handed by the real person, especially when this person was someone they couldn't afford to offend. It's like when you were studying, you were looking at your phone in high spirits, and suddenly you turned around and saw your class teacher
That dark face will definitely show how your heart jumps into your throat on the spot.
"I've seen you, please forgive me." Several palace ladies hurriedly knelt down, looking frightened.
In this era of supremacy of imperial power, a few words from the superiors were enough to make the inferiors die without a burial place. In the days of the previous emperor, palace maids like this who spoke ill of their masters behind their backs would only die once they were caught.
Taotao raised her eyebrows and immediately became domineering. "Didn't you all talk happily just now? Come on, why don't you say it?"
The more it is at this time, the less she can let others see clearly her mother-in-law.
Those palace maids were afraid of Su Zhan, but they were not afraid of Taotao, who was no better than them. Su Zhan was just here now, and if she wasn't there, Taotao wouldn't be able to control the situation.
To criticize the master in private is a serious crime of beheading, but after all, they are the Jade Concubine's people now, and the Jade Concubine will definitely not ignore them.
The maids looked up to Concubine Jade with high hopes, hoping that she would speak. But when they looked up, they were shocked to find that their backbone, Concubine Yu, had unexpectedly ran several meters away from them, with a look on her face.
His expression seems a little fearful?
At this moment, some people were immediately fascinated.
You are a princess, and now you are the emperor's newly appointed concubine. You are afraid of what someone who has not yet been given the title will do. Shouldn't you be arrogant and show off your power?
Su Zhan glanced at the so-called Jade Concubine with playful eyes and sneered.
Wan Yu was frightened by her smile, but when she thought that she had changed her appearance now, she clenched her fists to cheer herself up, imitated those pampered and arrogant concubines in TV dramas, made a coquettish posture, and whispered, "
Wan Yu has met her sister."
"Sister?" Su Zhan said these two words playfully, and then said casually, "I don't remember when I got a sister as old as you."
The smile on Wan Yu's face was a little stiff, but then she lowered her head as if nothing had happened and said, "Although I have a higher status than my sister now, my sister was your majesty's original princess after all. I should call you sister both emotionally and rationally."
Wan Yu silently gave herself a thumbs up. This series of her actions were completely based on a particularly favored concubine in the popular palace fighting TV series "The Legend of XX" that was on the air before she traveled through time.
Before the heroine entered the palace, the concubine had such pitiable skills at any time and at any time, which made the king extremely pitiful and doted on her.
Even the heroine who was promoted rapidly suffered a lot of losses when she first faced off against this beloved concubine.
Wan Yu silently praised herself in her heart. She didn't believe that she, a little expert who had been subjected to all kinds of bloody TV dramas, could lose to such an unknown monster.
Yes, ever since she saw Su Zhan's weird ability to seize souls, Liu Juanjuan, who was dressed in a jade-like appearance, classified Su Zhan as a monster.
After all, only monsters have this kind of ability that extraordinary people have. Others, even people like her who are favored by the gods, don't have it.
Liu Juanjuan was actually very timid, but she had to obey that adult's order. What she was doing now was related to whether she could go home.
If Liu Juanjuan still had illusions about this novel world before, then after Su Zhan's attack, she finally realized the reality.
Now, her only hope is to complete what the adult told her to do, return home, and eat the preserved egg and lean meat porridge made by her mother.
Su Zhan narrowed his eyes, ignored the maids kneeling on the ground, walked up to Liu Juanjuan, and said in a voice that no one else could hear clearly, "How dare you come back? I can't tell, you are very brave."
The Soul Eaters are born to stand at the apex of all souls and are the top existences on the food chain. Not to mention ordinary souls like Liu Juanjuan, even those high-ranking members of the God Clan will feel as if they are seeing their souls in front of the Soul Eaters.
Natural enemies are equally trembling, and this has nothing to do with their strength.
An ordinary person like Liu Juanjuan faced Su Zhan directly in the form of her soul. The fear that Su Zhan left in her soul would probably never be eliminated in her lifetime.
To put it simply, Su Zhan left a serious psychological shadow on her, which cannot be cured. As soon as she sees Su Zhan, her heart beats faster and her breathing becomes difficult—it’s scary.
The moment Su Zhan approached her, Liu Juanjuan became stiff and unable to move.
Su Zhan looked at her and turned pale with fright. He was not surprised at all. This was the proper attitude towards her, a Soul Eater.
"Sister...sister, I, I don't know what you are talking about...I" Liu Juanjuan was so nervous that she couldn't speak clearly. While speaking, she subconsciously shrank her shoulders, as if this could save her several dozen pounds.
It's like hiding the meat, and the whole person is a coward.
Although the palace maids kneeling on the ground did not hear what Su Zhan said, the frightened expression on the Jade Concubine's face cannot be faked. Could it be that the princess said something to threaten the Jade Concubine?
However, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't figure out why Su Zhan threatened Liu Juanjuan.
"What are you doing?" Just when Su Zhan was fully suppressing Liu Juanjuan, a gentle male voice sounded in the imperial garden.
Everyone turned around and saw Jun Liuyue, who was wearing a dragon robe and looked incomprehensible, followed by several young eunuchs standing not far from them.
When Liu Juanjuan saw him coming, she rushed towards him as if she was her savior, and said pitifully, "Your Majesty, you are here."
Her tone of voice was full of emotion, and coupled with the tearful expression on her face, she looked like a little white lotus.
However, from Su Zhan's professional perspective, Wan Yu's body is plump, bulging forward and backward, full of exotic amorous feelings, and is simply the hardware of a red rose.
To use the appearance of a red rose to show the interior of a white lotus is more than just an awkward statement.
However, His Majesty the Emperor, who only fell in love with Jiang Liuwan and was extremely smart, ignored these anomalies, hugged Liu Juanjuan and said gently, "What's wrong with my beloved concubine?"
