So what we are considering is how to increase the value of our sacrifice.

You have to be patient, otherwise, your situation will only get worse.

As someone who knows how to weigh the pros and cons, she has already made a decision in her heart.

"Aunt, I want to ask you for help with something. I hope I don't bother you."

There was a hint of smile on Su Qing's face.

He was asking the question even though he knew the answer, just to save face.

Being willing to maintain the most basic decency is already giving her a lot of face, okay?

The person he spends every day with is the Queen Mother, not this Imperial Concubine, so he has no pressure at all to take action.

"No...Xiaoqing, if you have anything, just tell me."

"As long as I can help, I will never refuse."

Su Xiruo almost couldn't hold back her anger and spoke in a tone as calm as possible.

Chapter 184 Imperial Concubine: You actually treat me as your sister's substitute!

Did you ask if it disturbed me?

I just fell asleep, do you think I disturbed you?

But there is no way to say such words, because it does not make any sense.

She was wondering why the other party came to find her, and she couldn't help but have a bad feeling in her heart.

This kind of late-night visit really makes people unhappy!

"It's like this. I accidentally got a little angry just now, and now I want to vent."

"Aunt and I have such a good relationship, you shouldn't mind my little request, right?"

Su Qing did not hide anything and stated his purpose very directly.

As a gentleman, I always focus on being honest no matter what I do.

It's night time now, there's no need to waste time, just state your purpose directly.

After Su Xiruo stopped, she was completely stunned.

Although she had already expected it in her heart, you can't be so straightforward!

Faced with such an unreasonable request, of course she wanted to resist it at the first moment.

Then, she heard the boy's nonchalant voice.

"Aunt, there are some things I don't want to tell you too clearly. Our identities are different now."

"Before, I treated you as my elder, but you tried every possible way to scheme against me."

"So now, we two will discuss our own affairs, and there will be no change in the way we address each other."

"But in terms of your status, you are my slave and must obey me."

Su Qing seemed to see what she wanted to say and spoke again, not giving her any chance to refute.

After saying this, he sat down on the edge of the bed with an extremely calm expression.

Su Xiruo's expression changed slightly, and it was difficult for her to maintain her previous expression.

It would have been fine if I was woken up while half asleep, but I heard news like this.

Who can accept this?

"Aunt, do you have any opinions on this matter? If so, please tell us."

"My mother and I are both very willing to listen to other people's opinions. Of course, your opinions must be reasonable."

Su Qing continued in a calm tone.

"Xiaoqing...you don't even give anyone the right to refuse when you're like this!"

"Slaves also have human rights. It's so late now, couldn't you have come earlier?"

Su Xiruo was silent for a moment, then let out a sigh.

There was a hint of resentment in her tone, making her sound like a woman acting coquettishly to her lover.

There is no sound of reluctance, so naturally there will be no dissatisfaction in people's hearts.

"My aunt doesn't seem to understand her identity and the obligations she needs to fulfill."

"Then I'll keep it simple. Normally you can be yourself, but now..."

"You must listen to me and obey my will. This is what a slave like you should do."

While Su Qing was speaking, he had already reached out and gently lifted her chin.

His tone was serious and his eyes were full of aggression.

"I...I understand. I just find it a little strange. Why did Xiaoqing come to see me so late?"

"Did your sister ask you to come? I don't mean anything else, I'm just a little curious."

Su Xiruo took a deep breath and forced herself to change the topic, which was somewhat disadvantageous to her.

"The Queen Mother didn't ask me to come here, I just left her place."

Su Qing did not hide anything and chose to tell the truth directly.

"Well...I understand. My sister has always been like this."

"Although I may have made some progress over the years, I still have no sense of boundaries when it comes to those closest to me."

Su Xiruo understood what was going on almost instantly and shook her head helplessly.

Her lightly spoken words revealed two meanings.

One is that my sister has no sense of propriety at all, and the other is that I can understand your thoughts.

All in all, it sounds really comfortable.

“It’s like this, eh!”

Su Qing sighed, a look of agreement on his face.

"If there is anything, you can tell me and I can help you analyze it."

Su Xiruo continued.

Since the sacrifice has already happened, what we need to do now is to make it worthwhile.

As long as she can continue to improve her status in his eyes, she will sooner or later overwhelm her sister!

My sister knows nothing about these things, and she will definitely want to escape the first time something happens.

In comparison, there is no need to say more about who he likes to get along with.

"Forget it, I can't bring myself to talk about this kind of thing, and it's already late."

"But I can tell you, aunt, that you are absolutely right. I escaped from my mother."

When Su Qing said this, his tone was full of sighs.

He was a little touched that finally someone could understand his distress.

After seeing this kind of thing, many people may say that they don’t know how to appreciate what they have.

But he really wanted to say in reply... Such happiness is really a torture!

"So after you escaped, the first person you thought of was me?"

"Xiaoqing, I'm really happy that you have such an idea."

Su Xiruo said with a gentle smile on her face.

In fact, she is still a little proud in her heart.

Among the many people who came with him, each one could be said to be a peerless beauty.

But he did not choose them because he was relatively familiar with them, but chose to go to his own room.

This shows what?

This means that after his last experience, he has been thinking about it all the time and is quite obsessed with himself!

So, can I slowly make good use of him in this way?

After the last setback, the imperial concubine has truly realized the value of this young man.

Both his strength and wisdom are rare in the world.

If we can really win him over to our side, it will definitely be a great thing!

In order to achieve this goal, of course, a certain price must be paid.

Now it seems that I have nothing to lose, so let go!

In comparison, my relationship with him is much worse than that between him and my sister.

But I undoubtedly have advantages.

I can do what my sister can't do. My sister is avoiding it, but I am facing it!

This is the difference, this is the key to winning!

"Your reaction is somewhat beyond my expectation. I thought you would be unhappy."

There was a hint of surprise in Su Qing's tone.

"Xiaoqing, I'm alone now, and you had that kind of relationship with me."

"I've suffered from loneliness for years, how can I want to continue like that?"

"No matter what you do to me, I will not complain. This is also a kind of companionship."

Su Xiruo said in a gentle tone.

As she spoke, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, outlining a smile.

The imperial concubine knew very well that the key to turning the tables lies in a change in attitude.
