"I haven't had a meal at Jingyang Palace for a long time. Today is a rare opportunity, so naturally I would be disrespectful to refuse." Shen Manyun had scruples in his heart, but he responded readily.
"My sister is still as cheerful as before. I remember when I first entered the palace, my sister and I hit it off like old friends. After so many years, it seems that nothing has changed, and it seems that everything has changed." An Rong couldn't help but sigh.
At that time, Shen Manyun regarded her as her sister with all her heart.
Shen Manyun laughed when he heard this: "You, you are good at everything, but you are too busy with your thoughts. You are destined to live a tiring life like this. How good is it to be like me? Even if the emperor neglects me again, I can live happily."
What she said was true.
In the past, because I liked the emperor, I was particularly jealous of Mu Ci. I thought that Mu Ci's existence prevented the emperor from seeing her good qualities.
After many things revealed their ugly side, she realized that without Mu Ci, the emperor would not have liked her.
Isn’t this the situation now?
No matter what An Rong and Yuzhi did to the emperor, the emperor still did not order them to sleep with them, and even Mu Ci was not ordered to see them.
It's a pity that these people in the game are self-righteous and always think that Mu Zhan is blocking their way. Who knows, if you don't like it, you don't like it. Even if the person he loves the most is gone, he still won't settle for anything else. Dispensable woman.
"My sister and I are different. Maybe I am greedy and want too many things, which is why I am so anxious. My sister is a role model for me to learn from, but unfortunately I can't learn from it in this life." An Rong smiled lightly.
Even though Shen Manyun had already betrayed her, she still felt that Shen Manyun was a very important person in her life.
But the ways are different and they don't conspire with each other.
As early as Shen Manyun and Mu Ci came together, there would no longer be Sister Shen in her world.
"Sister, why do you need to belittle yourself? Looking at this harem, except for Mu Ci, you are the one with the highest status. I am afraid that you will have a hard time, so I hope you will slow down sometimes. But, Mu Ci is this person It will have to be removed sooner or later. If my sister has any good ideas, you can tell me and see if I can help." Shen Manyun replied with a bright smile.
"That's for sure. I've been thinking recently, didn't the emperor neglect the queen? Now is a good opportunity for us to win favor. Unfortunately, I went back to Yanfu Palace to see the emperor a few times, but the emperor never asked me to see me. My sister went there. Once, the emperor met his sister, what did the emperor say to his sister that time?" An Rong led to the topic without leaving any trace.
She wanted to know whether Shen Manyun was special in the emperor's heart.
Otherwise, why didn't the other concubines meet with her, but she met Shen Manyun instead.
The news she received was that even when Mu resigned from Yanfu Palace, the emperor avoided seeing him.
Without seeing the emperor, she naturally didn't know whether her and Yuzhi's plan would work. Although the news from San Yu had been successful, she was still a little worried that something else had gone wrong, because the emperor's reaction was not what she expected. are different.
"Didn't my sister say that she had looked away? She also asked me not to go against the queen in the future, why has it changed now?" Shen Manyun looked at An Rong in surprise, looking up and down, as if doubting the authenticity of her words.
An Rong smiled: "I used to feel that I had no hope at all. Recently, the emperor stopped seeing the queen after returning to the palace. He didn't even visit the queen during her confinement period. The emperor clearly neglected the queen. I was thinking, what if such an opportunity If I don’t fight for it, then I’ll have spent all these years in the harem in vain.”
Shen Manyun nodded while listening: "Sister, what you said makes sense. I have long said that there is no need to be polite to Mu Ci, but sister doesn't believe it. I'm just trying my best now, and I don't know if it's too late."
She deliberately avoided An Rong's question while thinking about how to answer An Rong.
An Rong suddenly asked her about going to see the emperor. Did she want to find out about the emperor's situation from her?
Mu Ci said that the emperor seemed to be possessed by some kind of love voodoo, but Qi Yu also said that there is no love voodoo in this world, so Yuzhi used something else to replace the love voodoo and set a trap on the emperor.
Now that the emperor's reaction is not what they expected, that's why they want to get the news from her, right?
"Sister hasn't answered my question yet. Last time my sister went to see the emperor, did the emperor say anything to her?" An Rong quickly put the topic on the right track.
Shen Manyun thought for a while and then said: "The emperor just asked to see me, but he didn't say anything special. You also know that I get hot-headed when I see the emperor. How can I still remember what the emperor said to me?"
"Don't you remember a word?" An Rong asked urgently.
Shen Manyun shook his head: "The emperor didn't say anything to me, but if there is any difference, it is that the emperor is more solemn than before. I think it was because he came back from the war, and the emperor's aura made me dare not look directly at him. .I didn’t stay long and came out soon.”
She was not lying. The emperor didn't say anything important to her at that time, but his attitude towards her was more cordial than before, which flattered her.
But she would not tell such a truth to An Rong, lest An Rong catch any clues and deal with the emperor.
"Sister, think about it carefully, is there anything special about the emperor?" An Rong asked unwillingly.
Shen Manyun pretended to think for a while, but still shook his head: "It's strange, does my sister suspect that there is something wrong with the emperor? Otherwise, why do you always ask if there is anything special about the emperor?"
When An Rong saw Shen Manyun asking this question, she had no choice but to stop here: "I was just curious why even the queen was missing after the emperor returned to the palace. Don't you think it's strange, sister? Before the expedition, the emperor pampered the queen like that, but when he returned to the palace, , the emperor and the queen were missing, I just felt strange, so I asked my sister about it."
"There's nothing strange about this. It's just that the emperor is tired of Mu Ci. If I were a man, I wouldn't be interested in a woman who has given birth to two children. There are beauties everywhere in the harem. Maybe the emperor likes the new and dislikes the old." Shen Manyun answered with a smile.
An Rong smiled and lowered her eyes, but what she was thinking in her heart was that Shen Manyun was no longer willing to tell the truth to her.
She didn't believe that Shen Manyun didn't say a word after seeing the emperor.
She was just curious about how the useless Shen Manyun suddenly gained the emperor's favor, why the emperor was willing to meet Shen Manyun, and whether this Shen Manyun had any other abilities that she didn't know about?
After all, this matter is not simple, and she feels that there must be another article.
It's a pity that Shen Manyun is unwilling to tell the truth to her, otherwise she can start from now on to find out the crux of the problem.
Since Shen Manyun couldn't find anything out here, she had no choice but to find Yuzhi and find out from Yuzhi exactly what the emperor had been given and why the situation was so far from what she expected.
