"Yes."
The leading eunuch smiled and pointed at Su Yan with her orchid pointer.
"Yes, it's you. Come with us and go to the emperor to receive the reward."
Su Yan was confused.
"Receive the reward?"
"You have preserved the face of the royal family. Of course, they would like to thank you. Let's go."
The eunuch beckoned, and behind him, the group of guards surrounded Su Yan, fearing that she would run away.
Su Yan licked her lips, didn't resist, and followed the eunuch.
It was already afternoon, and it was late autumn, the period where the leaves were yellowing.
For Xuanyuan, this is a major moment.
The eunuch led Su Yan to a bathing place first instead of seeing the emperor directly.
Push the door open and walk in, and inside was a huge bathtub. The water inside was hot and excluding hot steam.
The thick white silk gauze fluttering in the wind adds a sense of mystery.
The eunuch stood in front of five maids and instructed them on what to do.
"Once she's done freshening up, take her to His Majesty's bedroom. Don't make her upset; His Majesty has taken a fancy to her, and it is estimated that she will be pampered for now."
The eunuch gave a simple explanation. These maidservants are already very proficient in these things.
After all, this Su Yan isn't the first one.
"Yes."
The maidservants bowed. The eunuch nodded, and then turned and went out.
Su Yan stood in front of the bath, looked at the hot water, and reached out to try the water temperature.
Well, very suitable for bathing.
As she thought that, the maid next to her came over and wanted to undo her clothes.
"Girl, let this slave serve you."
Su Yan go stepped back and blinked.
"What do you want to do?"
One of the maids laughed.
"Girl, we meant no harm, we just have to wait on you while you bathe."
Su Yan glanced sideways at the large bathing pool.
She shook her head.
"You don't have to wait on me."
The maidservants hesitated.
"This..."
She continued, "I can wash by myself."
The maidservants were happy when they heard her words.
Su Yan was seemingly gentle and obedient, but most people can't get close to her.
"Girl, if you need us, you can call us at any time."
The maidservants gave a gift and retreated to the side.
Su Yan undressed herself and got into the water.
Xiaohua looked at her enviously.
"Host~ it looks very comfortable in the bath."
"Very comfortable."
Su Yan closed her eyes and leaned on the side of the bath.
Xiaohua couldn't help but ask, "Is this the emperor's reward? But I saw what the eunuch said to the maidservants. Do they want to murder you?"
Su Yan shook her head with her eyes closed.
"I don't know."
At this moment, she was completely immersed in the joy of bathing. Where can she think about these hidden conspiracies?
She stayed in for a long time.
When she felt comfortable, she was about to get up and walk out of the bath.
A maidservant came over and put a long bath towel over Su Yan's body.
Immediately afterwards, four or five maidservants gathered around, and one of them was carrying a tray.
There was a red silk satin dress on it.
The maid came over and said, "Girl, please dress."
"Want me to wear it?"
"Yes."
Su Yan was a good girl, so when they told her to wear it, she would wear it.
It was only after putting it on that she noticed that it was a little thin.
The curves of her body were looming, and the skirt on the lower body was opened from the calf, and this hidden style is graceful.
The maids praised her.
"When you wear this, you look really good-looking."
As they spoke, they led Su Yan to the dressing table and sat her down.
