Chapter 393: Meeting the Ninth Thousand Year Old (38)
Concubine Shu asked Lin Yan to come over and question her, but she only asked what was said in Ye Xiao's tent. As her palace maid, she naturally had to know the movements of all the palace maids, and she would not tolerate any sand in her eyes.

If it weren't for the fact that the person behind this was Ye Xiao, whom the emperor valued the most, Concubine Shu would have killed this little maid and thrown her out to feed the dogs when she knew that she had the intention to betray her master. An unfaithful thing would be a disaster if it was kept.

Naturally, Lin Yan would not tell anyone about what happened with Ye Xiao, so she just mentioned a few rewards and secretly criticized Concubine Shu.

"Lord Ye told me that I would be her sister in the future. If there are people in the palace who want to bully me, I can complain to him. When I was young, I longed to have a brother to protect me. I didn't expect that it would come true today."

Her eyes were exceptionally clear, like a mirror, able to clearly reflect everyone's face. That look was exceptionally brilliant and dazzling enough to almost burn people's eyes.

Concubine Shu looked at this ordinary face and was very puzzled. Why did such an ordinary face have such beautiful eyes? If it weren't for the fact that the other party had found a backer now, maybe one day she would like to dig out these eyes.

The little maid seemed to be more confident than before, and she was not as timid in front of her as before. It seemed that she felt that after having a backer, she could do whatever she wanted?

Pregnant women have a lot of mood swings, and Concubine Shu has been particularly irritable in the past six months, so she has a lot of random thoughts in her mind. Even if she looks calm on the surface, who can know the turbulent waves hidden in her heart?

At this moment, she heard the little palace maid say again.

"My lady, with the help of Lord Ye, I think it will be easier for me to make sachets for you in the future."

It was a very simple sentence. Besides, what did making sachets have to do with Lord Ye? Wouldn't it be easy for Concubine Shu to get those medicinal materials?

But such words are very comfortable to hear, at least this person keeps it in mind. Looking at her excited expression, it seems to be saying, I can help the queen again.

This look was no different from before, all her emotions were on the surface, and you could tell what she was thinking at a glance. She looked innocent, which made people let down their guard.

But how could Concubine Shu continue to regard her as a little white flower? Who in the palace is not a shrewd person, could they really be deceived by this illusion?

But judging from the current situation, it is better to be on good terms with her than to be hostile to her. After all, Ye Xiao is indeed a help. Moreover, the other party does not have a condescending attitude, but has always been conscientious in doing his job.

Thinking of this, Concubine Shu couldn't help but nod her head in satisfaction. In this Xianyang Palace, she was the boss. The palace people below respected her, so what was there to be afraid of if they had some small thoughts?
As long as it doesn't interfere with her interests, it's fine to turn a blind eye.

"Xiangcao, you are so thoughtful. I am really touched to hear that. Lend me your sachet these days so that I can sleep well. Your clothes look a bit plain. When you return to the palace in the future, go with Luomei to my private storehouse to get some things."

Lin Yan was overjoyed and quickly knelt down to thank her, "Thank you very much for the reward, Your Majesty. Your Majesty is truly as kind as a bodhisattva!"

He looks like a money-obsessed man, a little snobbish, and even a little greedy.

But this person, I am afraid that he doesn't want anything, and is not greedy for anything. If you are selfish, you will have weaknesses, so you can better control people.

Concubine Shu smiled and said, "I have so many good things, it's okay to give you some. But when you go out, you represent my reputation. If you dress so simply, I'm afraid others will think I'm stingy."

"Okay, I'm tired, you can go down." She yawned and looked like she wanted to take a rest.

Lin Yan naturally withdrew very tactfully, and was respectful and polite throughout the whole process. She did not become arrogant after becoming Ye Xiao's savior, nor did she look down on others because of this.

It was as peaceful as an ordinary afternoon. I didn't do anything but just did my job quietly.

If this happened to someone else, they would probably be so excited that they would lose their minds.

However, her changes were very subtle. At least she was not so scared in front of Concubine Shu. After she was more confident, her voice became a little louder. Her eyes were no longer drooping like before, but brighter and more lustrous.

Change is good, if there is no change, doesn't it mean that she is very cunning? All emotions can be concealed very well. For such a smart person, who can prevent her from doing things in private?
At least Concubine Shu would not tolerate a palace maid who is too good at pretending to be around her. If she is loyal, it would be fine. But if she is not loyal, she might die without knowing how she died.

The reason she kept this vanilla was that the sachets she made really smelled good, and it made her feel comfortable. The most important point was that it looked really ordinary, the kind that you would forget once you saw it.

No matter how philandering the emperor was, he would not set his sights on such a person. So Concubine Shu was very confident in her, because she would not have a chance to climb into bed.

"Luomei, tell someone to keep a close eye on her and don't let her think of betraying her master. If that day really comes, I want to see if Lord Ye will go against me for a mere palace maid."

She no longer had the indifferent expression she had just now. At this moment, she had a strange smile, mixed with a hint of cruelty. This was her true face, but most people who had seen her had thrown her into a mass grave.

Luo Mei grew up with her, and they have a deep master-servant bond. She was also honed like a knife since childhood, so she knows many unknown sides of her master.

But her loyalty is unquestionable, so it is not unreasonable that she has been with Concubine Shu for so many years and has remained safe and sound.

"Don't worry, madam. If she really has other intentions, I will not let you worry."

It is easy to execute someone in the palace, and there is no need for the Xianyang Palace to really go against the Ninth Prince. After all, there are more ways to harm people than just doing it yourself.

Kill someone with a borrowed knife, or create an accident, or use other methods to make Jiu Qiansui dislike her, etc. In this way, how can she find out about the Xianyang Palace?
The master and servant looked at each other, and there was a tacit understanding in their eyes.

"yawn!"

Lin Yan rubbed her nose, which felt a little itchy, and she sneezed uncontrollably.

"Who is cricketing me behind my back?"

Xiao Ba said unhappily, "Don't worry about this for now. Think about how to transform yourself from a sister to a lover."

"What's the big deal? She's not my biological sister. Besides, there are still nine years and ten months left. Why rush?"
