Chapter 73 Gossip Again
Lengmei was never so tactful. Even though Tang Xia suspected Zui Linglong's involvement in this plot, she had no evidence for the moment. If she went for Zui Linglong now, it was bound to be herself who was going to suffer losses.
Should it happen, she would be countercharged by Zui Linglong and got embarrassed. Worse still, it would confirm the accusation that she was a devilish woman, and even Chu Tiankuo would be unable to save her under the pressure from the officials.
"Let's go and pay Lengmei a visit. Let's see what tricks they are playing."
"Zui Linglong is a calculating person and is not to be trifled with, but she made use of Lengmei, the greatest troublemaker. Now that they have called my bluff, I must get hold of some evidence to my advantage."
When she arrived at Lengmei's chamber, Lengmei was having lunch with maids serving at her side. One of the maids accidentally dropped a cabbage leaf on her clothes. With her f

The clear sound of the slap echoed around the deadly quiet chamber, and Lengmei's face was burning with pain. With her face still tilted to one side, she stared at Tang Xia's phoenix pattern gold embroidered shoes. "She slapped me? She slapped me!" The very idea of her getting slapped was repeated in her mind, and she shook her head unbelievingly. "When did I ever suffer such humiliation? When was I treated like this before?" She was filled with rage and abruptly raised her head, her hand about to slap Tang Xia on the face. "Your Grace! No!" Her maid was almost scared to death and leapt over to hold her arm, "No! Your Grace! You can't do that! She is the Queen! She is the Queen!" "Stay your hand! Leave me alone! Stay your hand!" Lengmei glared at Tang Xia with blood-red eyes and struggled in an attempt to pounce on her. "Calm down, Your Grace! If you slap back, you will be in great trou
Follow Me Chapter 75 Night with the Emperor
The old maid knelt on the floor on both knees, her fingers trembling slightly and her face turning pale. After a while, she slightly raised the edge of her lip, her body shivering, and said tentatively. "The altar... Your Grace, where did you learn about it?" The old maid's reaction aroused doubt and curiosity in Lengmei. She asked. "Nothing serious though. I just overheard it from the chat of several maids and felt confused, so I sent for you, and hopefully you should know about it." After hearing Lengmei's explanation, the old maid got less nervous than just now. She calmed down and replied. "It is not serious itself, but the name is not very pleasant. It has been a long time since it last happened." "There should not be anyone who knows about it now, and I was too surprised just now. Perhaps it was a young maid who overheard it somewhere, gossiped about it and disturbed you." Lengmei
Follow Me Chapter 76 Pregnancy
It was late into the night. Chu Tiankuo walked into Lengmei's chamber. "Are you happy now?" he said sarcastically as he walked in under the moonlight. "I am very happy." Lengmei was wearing a thin silk robe, her snow-white skin smooth as jade, partly seen and partly hidden under the robe, making her more glamorous than ever. She was sitting on the edge of the bed with curled feet, her snow-white nape standing out in the darkness. She slightly cocked her head and said with a seductive smile, "It is my greatest victory to keep you at my side." "Even though I don't like you, you're still my concubine. I hope you will be discreet and behave properly, and stop being frivolous like a prostitute." Chu Tiankuo's words were full of coldness foreboding a windstorm. "You!" Lengmei stood up abruptly and pointed her hand at Chu Tiankuo. "How dare you! You're just one of my concubines. How dare you be impolite with me?" Chu Tia
Follow Me Chapter 77 Lengmei's Pregnancy
"If you persist, I'll send for a doctor to check it." Lengmei panicked for she didn't expect Chu Tiankuo to be so serious about it. She knew he was getting to the bottom of it for Tang Xia's sake. She hurriedly made up an excuse. "Your Majesty, I might have caught a cold last night... I didn't feel like eating anything after I got up this morning, and I feel a dull ache in my head. I'm not in good condition... I can't see other people for now." She lifted her silk handkerchief to cover her lips and burst into a spasm of coughing. She frowned slightly, and her face turned pale, making her look more pitiable than Xi Shi. "Even better. The doctor can also cure your cold. Don't worry. I won't grudge drug expenses to you." Chu Tiankuo was in a real fury and wasn't moved by Lengmei's pity at all. His face was covered in formidable air and his words were full of taunts. "Send for the doctor!" At once, a eunuch standing o
Follow Me Chapter 78 Jealousy
"Lengmei, you should keep a low profile these days," said Zui Linglong as she gazed at the tea in the cup, interrupting Lengmei's meditation. "I paved the way in secret for everything you have obtained," She raised her head and looked at Lengmei, and her eyes filled with peace. "She's really a crank." Lengmei thought as she got absent-minded while contemplating Zui Linglong's countenance. "You don't have enough cards in your hand to play against that person," Zui Linglong's voice brought Lengmei back to the reality. Her words were blunt, but Lengmei didn't care. She laughed instead. "Yes! I know what I should do. What I'm doing right now was meant to be used on Tang Xia." Lengmei held up her teacup and took a sip in an elegant manner. She didn't care whether she could get true love from the emperor, but she knew Tang Xia's existence was an obstacle in her way to power. She
Follow Me Chapter 79 The Imperial Study
That night, Lengmei dressed up and put up a delicate makeup. She put up the most gorgeous gown with a layer of gauze covering it. Her round and smooth shoulders were seen through the gown, and her bosom stood out, making her extremely lovable and charming. She looked at herself in the mirror and felt profoundly satisfied. Even if Chu Tiankuo wouldn't touch her, he should not treat her indifferently. She brought her personal maid who was holding the soup and arrived at the door of the imperial study. The eunuch on duty was about to stop her when he recalled Lengmei's recent activeness and realized it would be a bad idea to stand in her way. He then decided to go inside to remind Chu Tiankuo, but before he could move, Lengmei stopped him first. "Why are you escaping from me? Do I look like a beast in your eyes?" said Lengmei as she called back the eunuch who intended to leave and then walked in front of him. The eunuch bowed to L
Follow Me Chapter 80 Acting
Tang Xia saw Chu Tiankuo's bright yellow imperial robe, and so did Lengmei. They gave a meaningful smile at each other. Tang Xia lowered her voice and said curtly, "You're enjoying your little triumph, right? Now the hero is here. Do you dare to have a competition with me?" "What competition?" said Lengmei as she saw Chu Tiankuo approaching, her heart stirring and her mouth gaping. "Frame-up. Let's see whose side he's going to take." Tang Xia darted a provoking look at Lengmei, flew at her and then feigned falling back, tumbling helplessly to the ground. "Ah! Lengmei, why did you push me?" "You!" Lengmei's eyes bulged and she gaped at Tang Xia unbelievingly, who was sitting on the ground with a grieved and puzzled face. "I knew you were going to frame me like this, right?" said Tang Xia speechlessly with lip movements alone as she raised her head and gave a bright smile. "Your Grace, Your Grace, how
Follow Me Chapter 81 A Theatrical Troupe
"Your Grace, is it appropriate? It is not right to let so many people into the palace without His Majesty's permission." Lengmei's maid looked at Lengmei worriedly and gave a glance at the garish female role on the stage. "What? Can't I do such trifle thing?" Lengmei wore a cold look immediately and snorted, putting her cup down with a thump. "Please don't be angry, Your Grace. Take care of yourself." The maid flung herself down beside Lengmei's feet with cold sweat on her forehead. "I just did it for your own good. After all, it is you who let those unidentified people in the palace. If something happens, you are to blame." As Lengmei propped up her head with her elbow idly, she heaved a sigh slowly. Then she helped the maid up and sighed with deep feeling, "Alright, alright. I understand that you are loyal to me. I have my own logic by doing so. As a qualified maid, you just need to listen and watch silently. Do you understand?"
