"Your Majesty, Prince Rui would like to see you."

Putting away his claws impatiently, Nan Muchen still gave Su Mumu instructions.

"wait for me……"

Su Mumu nodded obediently, secretly rejoicing, and watched Nan Muchen leave in frustration.

Resisting the pain that felt like a car running over her whole body, Su Mumu climbed up from the bed.

"Forsythia, help me freshen up quickly."

Forsythia, who was waiting outside the door, heard Su Mumu's greeting, agreed, and walked in quickly from the door...

Sitting in front of the dressing table, Su Mumu often lamented that the clothes of the ancients were troublesome, especially this time. No matter how impatient she was, the simplest way of dressing up took a full quarter of an hour.

"Forsythia, please help me find out where the emperor summoned Prince Rui."

Before Forsythia could take the order and leave, Gale, who was hiding in the darkness, suddenly appeared and came closer.

"Empress!"

Su Mumu felt very strange when he was blocked by the appearance of Gale. The shadow guard beside him had been removed by Nan Muchen, so why was Gale here now? Seeing Su Mumu's expression of surprise, Gale suddenly appeared and bowed with his hands clasped in fists.

"Since the empress disappeared in the research institute, the emperor ordered his subordinates to wait for a team of shadow guards to take over the responsibility of protecting the safety of the empress. In addition, he also requested..."

Gale said this and looked up at Su Mumu who was eager to leave.

Feeling that Jiaofeng's words were strange, Su Mumu calmed down and asked in detail.

"What more can you ask for?"

After thinking about it for a while, Gale decided to tell her frankly.

"I require my subordinates to report the Queen's daily words and deeds accurately, down to the smallest details."

Damn it! That’s cruel! Su Mumu curled her lips in disdain, isn’t this just spying on me? What a man’s heart. While he was rebuilding our old relationship with me, he sent someone to spy on me.

"Forget it, I just don't want to go."

The plan changed. Su Mumu thought for a while and led Forsythia to the Jade Palace.

"Why are you here, sister? Please take a seat."

Baili Ruyue, who had not fully recovered from her illness, was lying on the Kang couch in disgrace, while the palace maids on duty stood on the ground in a dignified manner.

Su Mumu hated Baili Ruyue's delicate and squeamish habits, so she just sat down at the coffee table as if she didn't see him.

"Baili Ruyue, if I remember correctly, you are four years older than me. Although it is not wrong to call me sister out of respect, I think I don't have a close sisterly relationship with you, so

From now on, you can just call me the Queen."

Blushed by Su Mumu's rebuke, Baili Ruyue angrily grabbed the fragrant handkerchief in her hand, bowed and answered humbly.

"Yes, Ru Yue will follow the Queen's teachings."

Satisfied, he stood up and walked around the room.

"I wonder how long it has been since Concubine Ru was visited by the emperor?"

When Su Mumu poked her in the painful spot, her hand shook, and a cup of tea almost spilled all over her body. The palace maids on the ground were so panicked that they shouted loudly, and Su Mumu frowned at the panic.

Among the palace maids who rushed forward, one accidentally touched Baili Ruyue's finger, and her long green-white nails broke immediately. The palace maid was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she knelt on the ground and kept begging for mercy.

"Please concubine, please spare my life!"

Su Mumu looked at the palace maid on the ground in confusion. She just broke her fingernail. Is it necessary to be so scared?

Seeing Su Mumu's attention, Baili Ruyue smiled and ordered someone to lift the palace maid up from the ground.

"If your nails are broken, they will grow back again. Why are you so scared?" After saying that, he asked the maid next to him to help him down for comfort.

"We are talking about rules in the Nanqi Palace. Palace ladies are also human beings. They can be punished if they make mistakes, but the palace rules must be implemented by the chief executive, and private punishment is never allowed. Concubine Ru has been in the palace for some time, so she should know this.

Rules." As she said that, Su Mumu smiled brightly and tilted her head to look at Baili Ruyue on the Kang couch. "I wonder if I am right?"

Unable to refute, Baili Ruyue could only say yes.

Naturally, Su Mumu would not care about authenticity with Baili Ruyue. She looked around the room carefully with a smile. Then she looked at the rich flowers hanging on the wall and asked slightly surprised.

"I heard that Concubine Ru has never been blessed by the emperor. She actually hung up the flowers of wealth in the hope that the branches and leaves will bloom and bring blessings to future generations. It's hard for Concubine Ru..."

Su Mumu was so angry that she was shaking wildly. Baili Ruyue had tears in her eyes. She barely stopped the tears from rolling down and said "you" with a choked voice.

"It seems that Concubine Ru's body is very delicate. In my opinion, it would be better to take care of her for a longer time." Su Mumu glanced coldly at Baili Ruyue, who was so angry that she was shaking into a ball. Su Mumu walked out with a light smile.

Emerald Palace.

"Okay, Baili Yunxuan, let's see."

After waving his hand and knocking all the tea sets on the Eight Immortals table to the ground, Baili Ruyue shouted hello.

"Go and catch the idiot who broke my nails."

The eunuch outside the door responded with a sharp yes and came back shortly to report.

"Replying to Concubine Ru, the maid who broke the imperial concubine's fingernail was taken away by the queen. The empress left a message saying that the imperial concubine has a few maids and a few more. The research institute is short of people. Please transfer them to help.

Just right."

Frustrated, she had to grit her teeth and send someone to help her in the research institute. Baili Ruyue, who was accustomed to being arrogant and indulgent, had never suffered such injustice. She got angry with several palace maids, which temporarily relieved the depression in her heart. It was just painful.

Everyone in the Jade Palace was shocked, and everyone wished they could go to the institute to live with Su Mumu.

Bringing the crying palace maid to the institute, Su Mumu took the palace maid's hand and comforted her.

"May I have your name?"

Ever since she entered the Jade Palace as a servant, she had never seen her master be so kind and cheerful. She was at a loss and did not dare to speak for a long time.

"The Queen is asking you, just say it."

Forsythia came in with tea, and while talking, she handed the tea to Su Mumu, and took some cakes and placed them next to the palace maid. Seeing that Forsythia seemed to have the same status as herself, the palace maid timidly glanced at Su Mumu,

Just then I slowly felt relieved, and my voice came as quietly as a mosquito.

"When I return to the Queen, I don't have a name. I only know my family name. Because I was ranked fifteenth when I entered the palace, my registered name is fifteenth."

It's so pitiful that she doesn't even have a name. Su Mumu took the palace maid's rough and cracked hand and thought about it.

"You will be by my side from now on. Since your surname is He, let's call him He Huan. The name is a homonym of Albizia Julibrissin. Because Albizia Julibrissin has the effect of relieving depression and calming the mind, it has the meaning of living a peaceful life from now on. But,

I wonder if you like it?"

He nodded with tears in his eyes, fell to his knees with a plop, and kowtowed frequently.

"Thank you for giving me your name, and thank you for your blessings. I am deeply grateful. I only ask the Buddha and Bodhisattva to bless my queen with eternal health and longevity."

Forsythia standing aside hurriedly helped He Huan up and persuaded with a smile.
