Chapter 141 What kind of lowly slut is Liu Ruxu?
Riverside Teahouse.
Shen Muyue looked at Su Huayue across from her, her expression not very pleasant.
"What does the Princess Consort of Chu mean by this?"
Su Huayue picked up the tea beside her and took a small sip. Her exquisite makeup exuded a sharp and edgy aura.
"Sister Shen is so clever, I'm sure you've already guessed what I mean, right?"
Shen Muyue narrowed her eyes.
She had, of course, guessed what Su Huayue meant. But why did Su Huayue suddenly pull this stunt?
Seeing that she didn't speak, Su Huayue smiled gently at her and then glanced at Liu Ruxu, who was sitting next to her with a happy expression.
"I forgot to introduce you to Sister Shen. This is Liu Ruxu, my uncle's eldest daughter, who just arrived from Youzhou."
As he spoke, he winked at Liu Ruxu.
Liu Ruxu understood and immediately smiled ingratiatingly at Shen Muyue.
"Ruxu greets Sister Shen."
Upon hearing the words "Sister Shen," Shen Muyue's face immediately darkened.
What kind of stuff did Su Huayue get her hands on?
They dared to call each other sisters before even entering the door!
Even if Liu Ruxu were to enter the Prince of Qin's residence, she would only be a lowly concubine! What right does she have to call Shen Muyue "elder sister"?
Su Huayue, standing to the side, gritted her teeth inwardly. This Liu Ruxu was indeed from a small place, so ignorant of manners.
Before even entering the door, he had already incurred Shen Muyue's displeasure.
Seeing that neither Shen Muyue nor Su Huayue spoke, Liu Ruxu thought she was being very tactful and said to Shen Muyue, "I hope you will take good care of me in the future, Sister Shen."
Su Huayue noticed that Shen Muyue's expression had become even more unpleasant than before. If Liu Ruxu were to say a few more words, the matter would be doomed.
So, Su Huayue gave Liu Ruxu a warning look before turning to Shen Muyue and saying, "Sister Shen, you might as well think it over carefully. I've heard that Su Mowan is very much favored by the Emperor. With the Emperor backing her up, will Sister Shen still have a good life in this mansion in the future?"
Shen Muyue was not stupid, of course. Su Huayue's words simply indicated that she was on her side.
"What are you saying, Sister Su? No matter what Consort Su is like, she is still your sister. How can I believe you?"
Upon hearing this, Su Huayue knew that Shen Muyue was wavering, and immediately snorted.
"That bitch Su Mowan is not my sister! To be honest, we've never gotten along since we were kids. I'm only happy when she's in trouble!"
Shen Muyue was slightly surprised upon hearing this.
But Su Huayue's words are understandable. In any wealthy family, there is always a struggle between legitimate and illegitimate children. It is not surprising that Su Huayue, who is legitimate, dislikes Su Mowan, who is illegitimate.
"I believe in Sister Su, but... whether Miss Liu can enter the Prince Qin's mansion is not up to me."
Liu Ruxu, who had been sitting quietly to the side for a while, was about to speak when Shen Muyue said this, but Su Huayue glared at her and stopped her.
“I know that Sister Shen is in a difficult position, but you might as well think about it. Only if we join forces can we put Su Mowan ahead of us. Now is the perfect time to send someone to the Prince’s mansion while Su Mowan is pregnant.”
When the topic of Su Mowan's pregnancy came up, both of their eyes darkened simultaneously.
Shen Muyue was extremely worried.
For some reason, His Highness the Prince of Qin never summoned her to his bedchamber, yet Su Mowan always ran off to him with great enthusiasm.
Later, Su Mowan became pregnant, and everyone thought her chance had come. But Su Mowan stopped going to Fenghua Palace, while His Highness Prince Qin went to Huangfeng Garden!
Even after she begged Granny Zhao to create an opportunity and personally went to Fenghua Palace to be humble and submissive, she still couldn't get into Prince Qin's bed!
Su Huayue was also troubled.
Although she initially disliked the King of Qin for his leg ailment, after being rescued by him at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, a slight ripple of emotion stirred within her.
If the King of Chu had treated her better, it would have been fine, but Murong Jin was indifferent to her, and Consort Xiao looked at her with a critical eye.
Especially since she had known before that the Prince of Qin seemed to have some feelings for her, and seeing Su Mowan's 'happy' appearance now, she secretly regretted making the wrong choice back then, which allowed that bitch Su Mowan to get away with it!
Although the two had their own agendas, their goals were the same.
Therefore, Shen Muyue hesitated for only a moment before nodding.
“Since Sister Su is also thinking of us, then of course I am happy to do so. Let me go back and think about how to bring Miss Liu in.”
Upon receiving the answer, Su Huayue immediately smiled.
"Then I'll wait for Sister Shen's good news."
After Shen Muyue got up and left, Su Huayue frowned at Liu Ruxu, who was beaming with undisguised joy.
"That's all the help I can offer. Let me tell you in advance, Shen Muyue is the legitimate daughter of the Left Prime Minister's family, which is far superior to your background. When you enter the Qin Prince's mansion, don't even think about competing with her for favor. Your only way out is to stand firmly on her side!"
Liu Ruxu could certainly sense the condescension and disdain in Shen Muyue's eyes as she looked at her. Although she felt resentful, she needed Shen Muyue's help to have a chance to enter the Prince of Qin's mansion, so she was not foolish enough to go against Shen Muyue.
“Cousin Huayue, don’t worry. Su Mowan is the one we need to deal with. I know what’s important. But I heard that His Highness Prince Qin is not in good health.”
Su Huayue understood what she meant and immediately turned cold.
"What's wrong with Your Highness, Prince Qin? If it weren't for this, do you think you'd even be from a small town? Countless young ladies from scholarly families in the capital are enamored with Your Highness! You should be secretly delighted!"
Liu Ruxu had only made a casual complaint, but she didn't expect Su Huayue to react so strongly.
She paused for a moment, then pouted and muttered resentfully, "No matter how good His Highness Prince Qin is, he's still... If it weren't for my aunt's wishes, I wouldn't want to be his concubine."
Su Huayue scoffed inwardly, "She's just a country bumpkin who's never seen the world! She thinks she's some kind of phoenix!"
She said impatiently, "Alright! Don't be so ignorant! If it weren't for you dealing with Su Mowan, you'd probably be married off to some old geezer as a concubine!"
The four guards outside the wall exchanged glances and exclaimed in admiration: Sure enough, listening to Consort Su was the right thing to do; they could hear such explosive news while having tea!
Shen Muyue's face immediately darkened after she left the teahouse.
Did Su Huayue think she was stupid? Trying to stuff people from the General's Mansion into the Qin Prince's residence? If you're going to stuff people in, you should stuff your own people in!
Originally heading to the Prince of Qin's residence, Shen Muyue suddenly said to the coachman, "Go to the Left Prime Minister's residence."
Seeing that her young mistress looked unwell and suddenly wanted to return to the Prime Minister's residence, Caiwei couldn't help but ask, "Miss, why are we going back to the Prime Minister's residence all of a sudden?"
Shen Muyue had her own idea.
Upon hearing Caiwei's question, she immediately became impatient and said, "What's all this about? Not only has Su Mowan monopolized the Prince of Qin, but now even Su Huayue is trying to scheme against me! The General's Mansion is really going too far! Do they think our Left Prime Minister's Mansion has no one to rely on? What kind of lowly slut is Liu Ruxu? She dares to call me her sister! Does she think I'm easy to use?"
