The Plan Was Destroyed

"She's just a nameless concubine's daughter, what urgent matter could she have? She's just clinging to Ye'er, using those lowly tricks!" The empress's eyes showed a hint of disdain as she allowed Liu Fu to help her retire for the night.

Su Yurou had knelt outside the empress's chamber the entire night.

When the empress rose in the morning and learned that Su Yurou was still kneeling, she summoned her inside.

When Su Yurou emerged, it was clear her knees were sore, making walking difficult.

Yuan Ruo looked at her with sympathy. "Miss, why did you need to be so subservient before the empress?"

The ambition in Su Yurou's eyes was evident. "I pleaded with her not only to make Su Yingxue suffer but also to experience it!"

"Experience what?" Yuan Ruo didn't understand.

Su Yurou didn't answer, but she knew very well that she was doing this to experience the satisfaction of becoming an empress.
