After waved his hand and waved back all the people serving around him, Chen Lanxi frowned and asked him solemnly: "What conditions did Your Majesty ask the Empress Dowager?"

Before, he kept saying that he would use Concubine Shu to negotiate terms with the Empress Dowager.

But who knew that the Empress Dowager came back early and could choose the day they left the palace to play.

She thought that perhaps this made Xiao Ciyu fall into a passive state, so that he had to take a step back and make an irrelevant request to the Empress Dowager.

After this analysis, Chen Lanxi's frown tightened a little, and at the same time, the comfort in his tone became stronger and stronger: "Your Majesty, don't be anxious, we must have other ways to achieve our goal!"

Xiao Ciyu: “…?”

Xiao Ciyu blinked blankly and stared at Chen Lanxi for a while.

After a while, he realized - did she think he was asking her for help without achieving his goal?

"My original purpose was to change your chance to advance to you." Xiao Ciyu pursed her lips, looked at Chen Lanxi with complicated eyes, and emphasized to her seriously, "My goal has been achieved."

She actually misunderstood him and thought he was someone who didn't care about her?

Excessive!

"Hmm?" Chen Lanxi also couldn't react because of his sudden resentment.

After looking at him for a while, she realized the seriousness of the problem: "For such a good opportunity to seek benefits, Your Majesty actually fought for the second level promotion for my concubine?!"

"Do you think it's less?" Xiao Ciyu was a little panicked.

In fact, it was not impossible for him to raise the third level at that time. Anyway, her grade is not high at present, and walking up more often at once will not attract too much attention from the Queen Mother.

But this harem is not the harem of the Empress Dowager alone. The person who sits at the top like this may not care about it, but it is hard to say to others.

After all, there are not many examples of three levels in the palace. Apart from some very special circumstances, only by giving birth to a prince and extending offspring for the royal family can this honor be achieved.

With his eyes as dark jade as he turned around in a crooked manner, Xiao Ciyu tentatively suggested to Chen Lanxi: "How about I find another opportunity to make up for you in the next few days?"

"What to make up for!" Chen Lanxi felt that she was going to be tortured to death by his ability to understand. She rolled her eyes and quickly corrected his thoughts: "What I mean is that it is better to seek some practical things for you than to seek the benefit of promotion for your concubine!"

"Isn't it the most practical thing to ensure your promotion?" Xiao Ciyu snorted, "Anyway, in my eyes, this matter is the most important!"

Chen Lanxi: “…”

What kind of foolish monarch has she met? It would be fine if she didn’t choose the right conditions. I would like to remind him, but I was still unhappy?

I really should ask Shoufu Chen to teach him again!

Chen Lanxi's eyes were obvious, and Xiao Ciyu quickly understood what she meant from her eyes.

When he understood what she was thinking, Xiao Ciyu couldn't help but grind her teeth. However, when he thought of the bad things he had done, the accumulated toughness and dissatisfaction he had accumulated.

The two people with their own thoughts fell into silence in an instant.

Let the strange atmosphere spread for a moment, Xiao Ciyu took the lead in speaking and broke the deadlock: "It's over, and it's useless to say this. Tomorrow, you can wait for the order with peace of mind."

"I understand..." Chen Lanxi sighed lightly and nodded helplessly.

Obviously, she also understood that this was the only way to go.

However, before she could finish her sighing, Xiao Ciyu had already taken her a step forward and continued to cook dishes for her.
