Inside Tangli Palace, Shen Meimei, dressed in gorgeous palace attire, stood dignifiedly in the center of the palace.

Her face was solemn, her eyes were determined, and she walked slowly to the window with a string of Buddhist beads in her hand.

The sunlight shone through the window onto her, casting a golden glow.

She looked at the sky outside the window and took a deep breath, as if she wanted to absorb all her strength into her body.

Then, she turned around, knelt down in the direction of Shandong Jeju, clasped her hands together, and muttered:

"Mother, although I am not the real Shen Meizhuang, I now occupy her body. And you died because of me. If I don't take revenge, I will not be worthy of being your son. Today, your daughter finally avenged you. I hope you can rest in peace in the underworld."

After that, she closed her eyes and prayed silently.

Just then, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, and then a eunuch hurried in.

He bowed and said respectfully, "My Lady Imperial Concubine, Liu is dead."

Upon hearing this, Shen Meimei suddenly opened her eyes, with a hint of pleasure and relief in her eyes.

She nodded slightly and said softly, "I understand. Go down." The eunuch responded and turned away.

After the eunuch left, Shen Meimei stood up, walked to the table and sat down.

She picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, then put it down, her eyes becoming serious. After a while, she called her personal maid and asked her to invite Eunuch Su to come over.

Soon, Eunuch Su arrived at Tangli Palace.

He saluted Shen Meimei respectfully, then stood aside waiting for instructions.

Shen Meimei smiled slightly, motioned him to sit down, then took out a handful of melon seeds from the drawer and placed them in Su Peisheng's hand, saying with gratitude:

"It's just a small gift, please accept it, Eunuch Su. I will have to rely on you more for the palace affairs in the future."

Su Peisheng quickly declined and said:

"I can't do that. The Imperial Concubine is so kind to me. I really don't deserve it."

Shen Meimei smiled and waved her hand, saying:

"Eunuch Su, you don't have to be polite. These are all from my heart. As long as you work hard for me, I will naturally not treat you unfairly."

Su Peisheng was delighted when he heard this and quickly thanked him:

"Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty. I will do my best to serve you."

Shen Meimei nodded with satisfaction and said:

"In fact, I know that you and Jingxi love each other. Aunt Jingxi has been with me for two years. I just want to ask Eunuch Su, when do you want to marry Aunt Jingxi?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Eunuch Su knelt on his knees excitedly and said:

"It's all up to you, Madam. If you can let Jinxi be my wife, I will be very lucky and will definitely treat Jinxi better!"

Shen Meimei turned her head and looked at Jinxi. She smiled and asked:

"Are you willing? If you agree, I will ask someone in the capital to buy you a dowry. You are loyal to me, so I cannot treat you unfairly!"

Jin Xi knelt down gratefully, "Your Majesty, I want to serve you for a few more years. I feel at ease with you. No master has ever treated me like this. You truly treat me as an equal."

Shen Meimei has no feudal hierarchy in her heart. She treats the palace maids and eunuchs of Tangli Palace as company employees, the concubines in the harem as colleagues, and the emperor as her boss, so she treats everyone equally.

She pulled Jinxi up and said to Su Peisheng:

"You get up too, don't kneel all the time!"
