Dreaming back to the Qing Dynasty: Die Luo Chuchen

Chapter 223 Talking With Ulterior Hearts

"What you said is a lie. You don't want fame and fortune, but the men are all vying for it. Could it be that Ting Lu is not tempted?"

I nodded with certainty. "I trust him."

Concubine Tong Gui burst out laughing.While we were talking, two court ladies entered the back room with teapots and fruits. I heard the sound of making tea and pouring water. I couldn’t help but feel a little strange. Could there be someone inside?Who is the one?
"When you had an accident before, Ting Lu was hit hard. It can be seen that he likes you very much. He is also a seed of infatuation. This reminds me of Liang Shanbo in the drama."

"Yeah, poor Liang Shanbo's infatuated seed caught up with a 'heavy rain'...and was drowned. So I have to protect Ting Lu's seed." I replied mischievously, which made Concubine Tong amused Clutching his handkerchief, he giggled and laughed.The maids next to her also laughed out loud, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became lively.Among the group of laughter, it seemed that a muffled laughter could be vaguely heard from the back room, accompanied by a low coughing sound.It sounded like a man... I curiously turned my head and glanced into the back room, but unfortunately it was blocked by the curtain and I couldn't see anything.

"No wonder people like you, you are always so funny when you talk, what a pistachio!" Concubine Tong smiled for a while, took a cup of tea, thought about something while drinking, put down the cup and said: "Mulan, in fact, our women's lives are arranged by the heavens. No one knows whether our lives are good or bad, so sometimes we may not be able to fulfill our wishes everywhere, don't you think?"

ah?I looked at her in a daze, not understanding what she meant by what she said.

"By the way, won't it be boring for you to talk with me all day?"

"No, anyway, I have nothing to do in the mansion. Apart from reading books and planting flowers in the mansion, I just go out of the mansion for a walk, and occasionally enter the palace to talk with the empress, and I can adjust my life." I replied with a smile road.Concubine Tong nodded with a smile: "If you can stay with me in the palace all the time, would you be willing?"

ah?I stared blankly at her with my eyes wide open, and I couldn't turn my head around for a while.I asked in a daze: "Isn't there so many people around the empress, the empress of Defei and the empress of Hui also come here often, do you still need me?"

I smirked: "Of course it's good to be able to talk with your mother, but how can I live in the palace every day as an outsider? There are rules in the harem, aren't there?"

"What's the matter, as long as I tell the emperor, it's easy to do." Concubine Tong gave me a look at me when she said this, and said casually: "Besides, the emperor likes you very much, so naturally he won't object. of."

As soon as the seemingly understated sentence was uttered, it was like a thunderbolt on the ground to me, and my heart was shocked.The emperor, the emperor... like me?My eyes widened in surprise, I froze in my seat and completely forgot to react.Concubine Tong lowered her head to drink tea. I was stunned for a long time before I slowly recovered my voice and said with a dry smile, "Is your concubine joking? How could the emperor agree?"

"What if the emperor really agrees?"

Concubine Tong Gui said slowly, a pair of smiling eyes stared straight at me, and I froze for a moment.
