Chapter 113: 2!
Qi Yan's actions confused Concubine Li. At this time, Qi Yan lowered her head, waiting for Concubine Li or Concubine Rou to help her.
Concubine Li turned her neck stiffly and looked at Concubine Rou.
Concubine Rou winked, signaling Concubine Li to go over and help her up.
Concubine Li pouted her lips, looking pitiful. She really couldn't help herself when she was asked to act with Qi Yan.
Concubine Rou rolled her eyes and forced Concubine Li to go over. My goodness, Concubine Li couldn’t bear it, but she could?
Resistance was helpless, Concubine Li sighed, changed her expression, and helped Qi Yan up.
"Since the princess has such a heart, how can my sister and I blame her?"
I have to say, Qi Yan's acting is really good. When she heard this, the surprise in her eyes looked real. "Really?"
The corners of Concubine Li's mouth twitched, and she nodded reluctantly.
Qi Yan looked at Concubine Rou again, and the latter also nodded.
Qi Yan was so happy. They were indeed two brainless people. They actually believed it just because she shed a few tears.
Having said that, Qi Yan found an excuse to leave. Tomorrow was her birthday banquet, and she had to prepare well and try to make a big splash.
As soon as Qi Yan left, Nanny Lan came.
It's really strange. Normally, Nanny Lan has her eyes on the top of her head, and she hasn't been here for so many years.
Not only did she come, she came with a smile. Concubine Li had a bad feeling in her heart.
Nanny Lan said cheerfully, "Empress Rou." The next moment, she saw Concubine Li was also there when she entered the room. Her attitude changed 180 degrees, "Empress Li is here too."
Concubine Li wanted to hit someone, but she couldn't do that now.
She took a deep breath, and endured it a little longer. Tomorrow, this old woman wouldn't be able to jump up anymore.
Concubine Rou smiled and asked, "How come Nanny Lan has time to come here today?"
Hearing this, Nanny Lan smiled, and the wrinkles on her face became more obvious. "The Imperial Concubine used your perfume powder, and it worked very well. She sent this old slave to thank you."
"Madam, you don't have to be so polite. The Imperial Concubine is in charge of the affairs of the six palaces. This is what we should do."
Concubine Li just watched the two of them arguing quietly, staying by the side without saying a word, as if she didn't exist.
Nanny Lan exchanged a few more pleasantries with Concubine Rou before revealing her true purpose, "Concubine Rou, Concubine Guifei really likes that fragrant powder. Do you have any more of it, Concubine Rou?"
Concubine Li's mouth twitched. Well, another one who wants to get it for free. But if she is asked to pay for it, will she give it to him?
Concubine Rou was embarrassed when she heard this, "This..."
"To be honest, Madam, this perfume powder is not easy to come by and costs a lot. My sister, Concubine Li, and I only bought one box together."
Upon hearing this, Nanny Lan's face instantly drooped, and she changed her expression faster than turning the pages of a book, "In that case, Your Majesty, why don't you tell me where the perfume powder came from, and I will buy it myself."
Concubine Rou pretended to be embarrassed, "This...I'm afraid it's not a good idea."
Nanny Lan got angry when she heard this, and her finger was about to poke Concubine Rou's face, "What's wrong with that? Only if the Imperial Concubine is well, you will be well, and hurry up."
Concubine Rou seemed to be frightened by Nanny Lan's sudden change. She was unable to react for a moment and finally stammered, "This... This is Concubine Li... This is the person Concubine Li is looking for."
After hearing this, Concubine Li's eyes widened. Before she could ask any questions, Nanny Lan looked over. She could only adjust herself and pretend to be guilty.
Sure enough, Nanny Lan was attracted when she saw this. Looking at the looks of Concubine Rou and Concubine Li, she knew that the connection was with Concubine Li, and Concubine Rou was most likely the one who paid for it.
"What does Concubine Li want to do? Tell me quickly. Concubine Gui is waiting."
Concubine Li lowered her head and cursed in her heart: You old woman, do you think you can suppress her by holding Concubine Yin?
Concubine Li appeared to be submissive on the surface, but she was beating herself up in her heart: If it weren't for the fact that you were about to die, I would have been reluctant to act with you.
And Concubine Rou, you are really my good sister. Just divert the fire. Could you please tell me before you do so?
Nanny Lan saw that Concubine Li lowered her head and didn't say anything, and she kept saying dirty things, such as using her beauty to serve others and being a little whore...
Concubine Li couldn't bear it any longer, so she stood up and said, "I am a little whore, what are you? An old whore who takes advantage of others' power?"
"You, you," Nanny Lan was used to being domineering on weekdays, and no one would scold her like that.
Nanny Lan rushed forward with her teeth bared, ready to hit her. Concubine Li did not say much, and held her head high and said, "Go ahead and hit me. No matter how much I serve others with my beauty, I am still serving His Majesty. What about you? You are an old widow, how can you control the ruler of a country?"
These words really frightened Nanny Lan. To put it nicely, she was Concubine Yin's wet nurse. To put it bluntly, she was a servant in the Yin mansion. She was able to enter the palace because of her master's favor. After all, she was still a slave.
The concubines and princesses of higher status were also afraid of the Imperial Concubine behind her. They were so spoiled by this old woman that they couldn't tell who was the prince and who was the youngest.
Nanny Lan's chest heaved, and she was obviously very angry.
Concubine Li snorted coldly, "Don't you just want perfume powder? Sure, I can give it to you out of mercy."
Nanny Lan suppressed her anger and kowtowed, "I hope that Concubine Li will tell you."
Concubine Li was very proud and looked at Concubine Rou with a look of begging for praise.
Concubine Rou nodded, signaling her to continue.
Concubine Li continued, "You can have it if you want it, but I can't just give it to you for free, right?"
Concubine Rou closed her eyes, looking helpless. She was so greedy and greedy for money, she was really unique.
Nanny Lan wanted to get angry, but if she didn't find out where the person came from, the imperial concubine might not let her go.
Now the imperial concubine is in a bad mood, perhaps because of some strange disease, but she is particularly irritable these days and sometimes even hits her.
Nanny Lan had no choice but to lower her head and asked through gritted teeth, "How much does Concubine Li want?"
Concubine Li raised two fingers again, and Nanny Lan was puzzled, "Two hundred taels?" She went through so much trouble just for two hundred taels. Nanny Lan thought Concubine Li was crazy.
Concubine Li sneered, "Are you sending away beggars? Guess again?"
Nanny Lan's face suddenly changed, "Two thousand taels?" She could also take out the two thousand taels, but she was also a greedy person by nature, and asking her to give money was more painful than asking her life.
Concubine Li rolled her eyes and snorted, "Not a cent more, not a cent less, twenty thousand taels."
Nanny Lan thought she had misheard and it took her a long time to react. "Twenty thousand taels for just one piece of information. You are robbing me."
Concubine Li spread her hands indifferently, "Just understand, you are begging me now, don't make me angry, otherwise I won't tell you the two hundred thousand taels."
Nanny Lan was speechless for a moment and forgot to refute. She was wondering if Concubine Yin would take her life if she didn't bring the news back.
Finally, she gritted her teeth and decided to take a gamble. She and the Imperial Concubine had been friends for so many years, and the Imperial Concubine would not take her life over such a small matter.
So she spat at Concubine Li and said, "Who cares? You can just live with this news for the rest of your life. I will find another way."
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Concubine Li and Concubine Rou looked at each other, "So she's going to take 200,000 taels to buy it on the black market?"
