Your Majesty, this outer room is painting a pie for you again!

Chapter 749 Why So Risky?

The nanny immediately looked at her queen with a worried look on her face, but Concubine De just waved her hand.

"It's okay." After comforting the nanny, he asked the palace servants to invite them in.

Li Rushi walked in front, followed by Shipin, and finally Su Jiao.

After all, Su Jiao is not a member of the royal palace, so naturally she cannot be too arrogant.

Li Rushi also walked into the palace, and when she saw Concubine De, she couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Greetings to Her Majesty the Virtuous Consort."

Shipin spoke respectfully.

According to her status, this Concubine De is certainly worthy of it.

Afterwards, Su Jiao also bowed to Concubine De.

Concubine De couldn't help but smile slightly.

"sit down."

After Su Jiao sat down, she also glanced at Concubine De's eyes and found that Concubine De did not seem to have any aversion to their arrival, and even seemed to have anticipated their coming a long time ago.

This actually made Su Jiao feel that this Concubine De was even more interesting.

Fortunately, Su Jiao was not the type to be shy, so she immediately said, "Madam Defei, do you know the purpose of our visit today?"

After hearing this, Defei paused, then shook her head with amusement.

"Miss Su, you... don't have the slightest sincerity to cooperate."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock and surprise.

"So, Madam Defei knows why we are here?"

Li Rushi spoke.

In essence, Li Rushi shouldn't have spoken, but it must be said that at this time, Li Rushi really couldn't help it.

She was really curious about what Concubine De was thinking.

Obviously, they had not leaked any information before coming here, so how come Concubine De knows it now?
Weird, isn't it?

And when Concubine De looked at Li Rushi, there was still tenderness in her eyes.

"Princess, I have been waiting for a long time."

After saying that, he looked at Su Jiao again.

"I thought that Miss Su would come to see me from that day on, but I never thought..."

Su Jiao couldn't help but touch her nose when she heard that.

This Concubine De really thought too highly of herself. Although she realized something was wrong at the time, she couldn't say much. Moreover, it was difficult to tell what the situation was at the moment. Naturally, Su Jiao would not be so impulsive.

I didn't expect that this would make Concubine De overthink it.

Upon hearing this, Concubine De only smiled faintly, and after a while she continued, "It's okay, it's not a big deal, and Miss Su is not too late."

Defei is a very smart and cautious person.

Even Su Jiao was shocked by what Concubine De said at this moment.

Then Su Jiao raised her eyebrows and looked at Concubine De.

"Your Highness is really tired, waiting for me all the time."

Upon hearing this, Concubine De just smiled and waved her hand.

"Miss Su, please don't say that. I just want to live."

When she said this, even Defei herself looked a little unhappy.

"If possible, I would not interfere, but..."

The topic was not continued. But everyone knew that if possible, Concubine De would not get involved in these things, but when her life was in danger, Concubine De would not sit and wait for death.

Thinking of this, Su Jiao became a little confused.

"Logically speaking, this matter should have nothing to do with Empress Defei, but... Empress Defei's words just now seemed to implicate her. Why is that?"

Su Jiao frowned and looked at Concubine De.

Su Jiao was indeed curious about this.

Li Rushi and Concubine Shi couldn't help but frown when they heard this.
In fact, regarding this situation, they didn't really understand what Concubine De meant.

It seems as if all this has nothing to do with Concubine De. If that's the case, then doesn't Concubine De seem a little... too cautious?
But then, Concubine Shi's eyes lit up, and she looked at Concubine De with a little sympathy.

"What did Shipin think of?"

Defei asked.

At this moment, Su Jiao couldn't help but look at Concubine De.

It has to be said that Empress Defei is a very powerful person. All this is because in this matter, Empress Defei actually took the initiative and became the host. It has to be said that Empress Defei is really a smart woman.

Originally, they came here to discuss with Concubine De what would happen next. Logically, Concubine De should act according to their way.

But in fact, Concubine De took the initiative in this matter, and this alone is enough to make people admire her.

So Su Jiao became even more curious about this lady.

Li Rushi didn't have any too many thoughts about this. At this moment, Li Rushi was just wondering what Defei was thinking.

In other words, what is Concubine De's purpose?

"Empress Shipin, what did you think of?"

Li Rushi turned and looked at Shipin.

Didn’t Concubine De also ask this just now?

Su Jiao also looked at Shipin.

At this time, Shipin frowned slightly, and after thinking for a while, she spoke: "It's not for other reasons. I think that Concubine De is also trying to protect herself. After all... Prince Xuan is capable of doing anything. If he has no help in the harem, he won't mind winning Concubine De over to his side."

After these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.

Especially Li Rushi.

"He dares!"

Then he looked at Concubine De.

"So the Empress Defei will agree?"

Su Jiao sighed helplessly when she heard that.

"Princess, if the Queen really agrees, then how could she possibly meet with us to discuss the matter?"

The Seventh Princess couldn't help but pause when she heard this, then she said "oh".

"Yes." He looked at Concubine De again, with a slightly embarrassed look in his eyes. "I'm sorry, Concubine De."

Concubine De waved her hand.

"It's alright. I know the princess is loyal to the core."

After hearing the compliment, Li Rushi couldn't help but smile bitterly for a moment.

"Your Highness, please stop teasing me with these words. What's this about loyalty and not being loyal... I'm just atonement."

After this happened, Li Rushi felt the most miserable. But even so, she still had to grit her teeth and endure it. After all, this was a debt owed by their royal family.

But because of this, Li Rushi was very curious.

"But as far as I know, Your Majesty has been very well behaved these years and has never done anything dirty with anyone. Why would you take such a risk?"
