Chapter 80 Warning
The official originally wanted to refuse, but when Cui Ling brought the mung bean soup in front of him, the slight coolness emanating from him seemed to dissipate a lot of the heat on his body.

"Lord Li, this mung bean soup was stewed. It's not very good. It's just because there is ice in it that His Majesty rewarded. It's cool and refreshing. I hope you don't dislike it." Fu Shu said with a smile.

Master Li's expression changed, and facing Fu Shu's smiling eyes, he quickly cupped his hands and saluted, "Since it is a reward from His Majesty, how can I make it happen? Thank you, Princess, for the reward."

Master Li took it, took a sip, and it was really sweet and refreshing. The corners of his mouth rose, and he couldn't help but praise: "Princess, it's very good!"

"Since Mr. Li likes it, then the princess can rest assured. Cui Ling, prepare a jar this afternoon and bring it to Mr. Li."

"Yes."

Master Li quickly said: "No need!"

"Lord Li, don't worry, the princess is not bribing you, as you said just now, it's just a reward. If Master Li is polite to the princess again, then the princess will really not be polite to you in the future." Fu Shu Although the tone is calm, there is no shortage of threats.

A person who can do things in the palace, even if he doesn't have a delicate heart, should still wink.

Master Li is no exception.

Concubine Zhao is very powerful in the palace, but no matter how powerful she is, she is only in the palace.Now that the Fu family is being favored, the two daughters are not to be offended.What's more, His Majesty even gave Fu Shu ice.

What an honor to be rewarded by His Majesty on such a hot day?Only the favored concubines have the royal role.

Lord Li's eyes flashed, his expression became more respectful, and he said with a smile: "The little official is more respectful than obedient. The princess does not know that there is a custom in the house of internal affairs for the concubine of Jinwang Highness, but it is not All of them. Miss Zhao Er's gift list is richer, that's because Zhao Guifei specially added it from her own treasury."

"I see. Miss Zhao Er is the nephew of the imperial concubine, so it's only natural to add some gift list in private." Mrs. Zhang nodded and saw Master Li off in person.

As soon as Master Li left, Aunt Mei was indignant, "At least Meier saved the life of His Royal Highness King Jin, how could the benefactor who saved his life not be worth a niece?"

Mrs. Zhang scolded coldly: "Presumptuous! You dare to speculate about the matter of the imperial concubine and empress? Do you know how much harm the Fu family will bring to the Fu family if the words just spread to the ears of those who care? It has been rumored that the concubine of the Fu family is arrogant and domineering , almost killed the mistress. Do you think there is still paper in this world that can hold fire?"

Aunt Mei was in a cold sweat and didn't dare to speak anymore.

"Aunt Mei, don't talk about your benefactor in the future. It's disrespectful. His Royal Highness Jin Wang is the master, and we are slaves. It is only natural for a slave to sacrifice his life to save the master. If you often pretend to be a benefactor, you will be ignorant if you talk too much. Lifting up, committing crimes below."

Fu Shu's words made Aunt Mei's heart tense, and she couldn't believe it: "Is it really so serious?"

"Aunt Mei, if you still think about your second sister's well-being, then be cautious in your words and deeds, and be careful not to let misfortunes come out of your mouth and ruin your second sister's reputation!"

Aunt Mei was suddenly nervous, "Then what the concubine said just now, will the adult send a message to Concubine Zhao?"

"Don't worry, he won't!" Fu Shu said firmly.If this is the case, Master Li will not accept mung bean soup.

Even if the other party wanted to curry favor with Concubine Zhao, he would have no guts to offend His Majesty.

This world still belongs to the old emperor, not Li Xuan.

Only then did Aunt Mei feel relieved, but she immediately regained her thoughts and looked at Fu Shu with a flattering expression, "Miss, this Meier is married to His Royal Highness King Jin as a side concubine, maybe she will be a noble concubine and concubine in the future. Ah! How can this dowry be calculated? It cannot be underestimated by the Zhao family."

When Fu Mei heard this, her eyes flashed, and she blamed: "Auntie, what are you talking about? Miss Zhao Er is the nephew of the imperial concubine and the second daughter of the Zhao family. I was born by an aunt. It's His Majesty's mercy."

Aunt Mei hated iron for being weak, and pointed at Fu Mei's nose and said angrily: "It's you who are so unbelievable! She is the daughter of the Zhao family, but you are also the younger sister of Princess Huayang who was appointed by His Majesty. It makes people look down upon it. Could it be that even the ostentation of ten miles of red makeup is also underestimated? Doesn’t it make the world laugh at it? Ma’am, Miss, what do you think?”

Zhang's face was sullen.

Fu Shu's face was flat, seeing the smug look in Aunt Mei's eyes, she didn't take it seriously, the other party was trying to ask for a dowry from them.

No wonder the other party was so excited just now.A little aunt who made a mistake, where did she have the courage to argue with the officials in the palace?
Fu Shu glanced at Fu Mei, who bowed her head and remained silent. Is this the purpose of the mother and daughter singing together?
Since ancient times, there has been a distinction between concubines and concubines. In addition to the family rules, the dowry of a daughter is to inherit the dowry of her biological mother.

Zhang's dowry is generous, but it's not Fu Mei's turn, unless she wants to.

Aunt Mei was born as a slave, how could she have any valuable dowry?
The dowry for a concubine of the Fu family is at most 1000 taels, which is still a high marriage.

Fu Mei and Zhao Tan'er married into the King of Jin as concubines together, but in this way, the status of the second daughter of the Zhao family, coupled with Mrs. Zhao's generous dowry, will definitely overwhelm Fu Mei severely.

In comparison, even if Fu Mei is Li Xuan's favorite person, given the huge benefits, she is not enough to look at.

People in this world tend to be too high and low. Zhao Tan'er has a strong natal family as the backing, and Concubine Zhao's special reliance on her. Fu Mei, who is also a side concubine, can only be despised by others.

Fu Mei couldn't rely on her aunt, she could only rely on the Fu family to support her face.As the princess, she is her last support.

After thinking it over, Fu Shu smiled and said, "Auntie is very considerate."

Mrs. Zhang frowned, and said in disapproval: "Shu'er!" She looked at Aunt Mei and Fu Mei more and more coldly, feeling extremely disgusted in her heart.Simply greedy!

Fu Shu cast her eyes on Mrs. Zhang, and said, "Mother, let me take care of the second sister's affairs."

Seeing Fu Shu's calm expression, Mrs. Zhang immediately swallowed what she wanted to say, and stopped talking.

When Fu Mei heard this, her expression was joyful, and she bowed to Fu Shu and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law!"

"We are all a family, what can we thank you for? This dowry is not a trivial matter. If it is less, it will make people laugh, but if it is too much, it will offend Concubine Zhao. If the empress is not happy, it will inevitably alienate His Royal Highness Jin Wang from you. After all, the empress is the biological mother of His Royal Highness Jin Wang, and no one can replace this blood relationship."

Knowing that what Fu Shu said was true, Fu Mei felt a chill in her heart.This gift list is not a secret, not to mention that she and Zhao Tan'er entered the Jin Palace together, and they are bound to compete.Concubine Zhao's private addition to the gift list is also clearly revealed, letting everyone know that Zhao Tan'er is the person she likes.

"My sister, what should I do?" Fu Mei looked helpless, and a charming look appeared on her glamorous face.

Fu Shu lowered her eyes, this Fu Mei is really able to plan her own future and plan everywhere.

With the other party's temperament, when the time comes to reach the sky in one step, they may not remember the goodness of the Fu family.

But now, they can only rely on Fu Mei to win over the future quasi-emperor Li Xuan first.
