Chapter 181 - 181: Please Stay in the Palace for a Few Days

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Someone from the palace came, and Liu Shimei really had to give face.

She came to the main hail. The person who came from the palace was the Chief Eunuch of Internal Affairs, Long An. This person was the Emperor’s favorite!

Liu Shimei had done all the manners that a daughter of the Grand Chancellor should have. She asked gently, “Thank you for your hard work, Lord Eunuch. May 1 know what decree the Emperor has?”

Something that required Long An’s help would not be simple.

As expected, Long An bowed slightly and said, “Eldest Miss Liu, you don’t have to be so polite. It’s like this. King Dun Yu entered the palace last night and insisted on bringing out the tiger from the Imperial Beast Garden. He said that he wanted to send it to the Grand Chancellor’s Residence for Eldest Miss to play with…”

Even the great Eunuch who knew how to advance and retreat well could not explain Huangfu Lingyao’s nonsense. He said, “The sage got a headache from King Dun Yu’s constant pestering. So, we took this trip and invite Miss Liu into the palace.”

Liu Shimei was speechless.

The silly dog knew that she had something to do after she came back, so why did he make such a scene?

However, it was probably because of his childish nature. He only wanted to show her Big Cat and forgot about her matters.

After she found an excuse for Huangfu Lingyao, she bowed to Long An and said, “Thank you for your message, Eunuch. I will follow you into the palace. I really should persuade His Highness not to bother His Majesty over such a small matter.”

“No rush,” Long An smiled slightly. “The Empress has spoken. Ever since Eldest Miss Liu and King Dun Yu were engaged, the Empress has not seen you. Therefore, she invites you to stay in the palace for a few days.”

Liu Fuyun, who was sitting at the side, was shocked.

Liu Shimei was also surprised, but she did not show it on her face and replied,

“I will follow the Empress’s orders.”

Long An smiled and said, “Please go ahead, Young Miss.”

Liu Shimei and Liu Fuyun looked at each other and left the hall without saying anything.

Their father-daughter relationship had basically fallen.

It was necessary to pack up the things in Leihua Courtyard. Moreover, Liu Shimei had to change her appearance when she entered the palace. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

On the way, Mo’er was very puzzled. “The Empress used to admire Eldest Miss, but now… Things have already come to this point. Why would she still ask Eunuch Long An to invite you to stay in the palace for a while?”

Liu Shimei pursed her lips and said, “There will always be a way out. You’ll know after entering the palace. I’m only afraid that the person who came had ill intentions, so let’s be careful.”

She was worried that the plan to buy hire workers would be delayed. Se was afraid that she really could not work in the Zheng Medical Hall anymore!

Hearing her say that she came with ill intentions, Mo’er could not help but worry. “If Eldest Young Miss was still a candidate for the Crown Princess, it would be reasonable for the Empress to summon you into the Palace. But now, where is this coming from?!”

“Now the Empress is also the mother of King Dun Yu. No matter what, 1 am also the daughter-in-law. Summoning me into the palace is reasonable,” Liu Shimei glanced at her and said. “Don’t ever mention the Crown Prince in front of Lingyao again!”

Mo’er disagreed, “Eldest Young Miss, you’re too indulgent towards King Dun Yu. It feels like you’re afraid of him!”

Liu Shimei smiled and did not explain.

Of course, she was not afraid of Huangfu Lingyao, but she had a strong understanding of his possessiveness. When this husky was anxious, he would even dare to hit the Crown Prince!

There was no need to create more trouble for something that did not exist, especially for something like this.

Mo’er could understand this kind of thing. Liu Shimei did not say anything, but she said, “But then again, although everyone says that King Dun Yu is very stupid, he knows very well that he cannot give up his wife! He’s definitely not willing to be cuckolded!”

Liu Shimei glared at her. “It’s fine if you say such things to me. You’re not allowed to speak nonsense outside. Otherwise, people will use it to stir up trouble!”

Mo’er stuck out her tongue. “Okay, okay. I’ll remember it!”

After the two of them walked through the long corridor, a servant girl came out from the flowers and hurried to the west courtyard.. “Madam, this servant has something to report about Eldest Young Miss!”
