Chapter 44

Su Youning knew that, apart from the great sacrificial ceremonies in the Southern Dynasty, there was no etiquette for kneeling and exalting in the harem, unless it was a sinful person.

They forced her to kneel up and down in this corridor, which was really a public humiliation.

Even if there was such a punishment, it was the emperor or the empress who personally ordered it. Otherwise, if the censors of the previous dynasty knew about this matter, they would not give up like this, and they would definitely give advice.

When the two maids heard Su Youning's words, they froze instantly.

They never imagined that the matter arranged by Mrs. Lin would be so difficult. This Su Youning is really not a docile person, just knelt down and started correcting mistakes.

Su Youning had the upper hand at this moment, approaching with the dignified palace attire, quite a palace demeanor.

"Aunts, please!"

The two maids panicked completely. They didn't have any orders, but they just followed Mrs. Lin's orders. If they made a fuss before the imperial court, their lives might be in danger!
"Princess Yu is so majestic, how can you be presumptuous at the Empress's Qianqiu Banquet?"

Lin Suya's voice sounded.

Su Youning looked at a woman who came slowly from behind.

The two court ladies immediately moved out of the way and bent over to salute.

"Mrs. Lin!"

There is only one wife who can make the maids in Empress Lu's palace call Mrs. Lin so respectfully, Lin Suya, the first-rank wife of Lu's mansion.

Su Youning's bright eyes were slightly curved, but her tone was firm.

"Madam Lin also wants to go to face the saint with You Ning?"

Lin Suya's face darkened, her tone was a little displeased, and she said calmly.

"Today is the Queen's Empress' Qianqiu Banquet. Why does Princess Yu bring up the matter of Miansheng again? Is she sincerely planning to cause trouble in the Hall of Supreme Harmony?"

"Madam Lin is absolutely right, but there was someone at the Queen's Empress' Qianqiu Banquet, who happened to meet You Ning, and You Ning just wanted to catch the troublemaker behind it!"

Su Youning had a peaceful smile on his face, but a cold light flickered in his eyes.

It is said that Lu Pingting is difficult to serve. In her opinion, Lu Pingting is just a mother who dotes on her very much behind her back. It seems that the mother and daughter regard Su Youning as an enemy, otherwise they would not have just entered the palace. Want to embarrass her.

Su Youning knew that Empress Lu and Concubine Ling didn't like her, but the two empresses were both family members and favored people, and they followed the path of warmth and generosity. The person behind the thought is Mrs. Lin.

"Mrs. Lin, although You Ning didn't learn the rules of the palace on time, she also knew that You Ning should pay homage with His Royal Highness King Yu. For some reason, You Ning was brought in at this time, and she still had to kneel up and down in this corridor." Visiting?"

Lin Suya's complexion was not good. Her Royal Highness Prince Yu was afraid of others, but she was not afraid. She was just a cripple with disabled legs, and she had nothing to do with the title of prince.

And she, Su Youning, an unfavorable concubine Yu, dares to be rampant in front of her?It's just that this moment is not a good opportunity to attack.

She suddenly turned around and scolded the two maids.

"Why is it so bad? It is clear that you are asking Princess Yu to rest in other rooms in the middle hall. How do you talk about paying homage?"

The two palace maids were tearful but did not dare to complain, so they had to kneel down and bow to Su Youning to admit their mistakes.

Su Youning raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Since that's the case, let's forget about this matter. Aunt Youlao took You Ning to the wing room to rest. When you visit with His Royal Highness King Yu, You Ning will sincerely pay homage to the empress."

As soon as the words fell, Su Youning smiled, waiting for the maid to take her to rest.

A court lady could only grit her teeth and bow respectfully.

"Princess Yu, please, this servant will take you there."

Su Youning nodded slightly, turned around and left gracefully with Ruyi.

Lin Suya lost face, but she didn't dare to get angry, she could only stare at Su Youning's leaving back.

Su Youning escaped from Mrs. Lin's hands like this, and those wives and young ladies who wanted to watch the excitement didn't dare to watch any more, so they could only quickly walk into the nave.

The shadow guard in the dark passed the news back to Ze Lan, but Ze Lan was a little surprised that Su Youning escaped from Lin Suya himself.

When Chu Yu learned of Su Youning's behavior, he couldn't help frowning and sneering.

"It really is eloquent."

The palace maid led Su Youning to the back of the nave, passing through a garden, and behind the garden was an attic.

"Princess Yu, the wing room in the middle of the attic is where you rest. The servants are leaving first."

Su Youning didn't intend to embarrass her, so he nodded and let her leave.

There were very few people coming and going in the wing room of the nave, and no one was seen entering or leaving the wing room.

As Empress Lu said, among the princes, only Princess Yu is the only one. The other princes may have rooms, but the concubine does not have one, so Su Youning's resting place is particularly secluded.

Su Youning pushed open the wing room and found the soft table by the window and sat down, as if there was no one around and worried about missing the time of worship, she opened her mouth and said.

"Princess, you take a rest first, and this servant will go out to ask you when you should go to pay homage."

Su Youning nodded.

After Ruyi left, Su Youning calmed down and thought about the situation carefully.

Just now, he fought against Mrs. Lin so forcefully, although he wanted people to know that she was not as easy to bully as the rumors said, but he also knew the attitude of most people in the palace towards her, Princess Yu.

Although she doesn't care about other people's eyes, but she doesn't get along with the master of the harem, and she doesn't deal with the prime minister's wife. Su Youning is inevitably worried about Su Zhixing's situation in the court.

Su Zhixing has always been strict and fair in dealing with government affairs, and he really shouldn't be harassed for no reason because of her.

Before he could figure out what to do next, the voice of the servant girl shouting suddenly came from outside the door.

"Quick, hurry up and call the imperial physician."

Su Youning stood up suspiciously, looked out through the window lattice but saw no one, pushed open the door of the wing room and looked from a distance.

In the garden not far from the attic, there was an old lady, several palace maids and servants anxiously supporting someone in the small pavilion in the garden, and not far away was a palace maid who was walking away quickly.

Su Youning frowned, and was about to close the door of the wing room so as not to join in the fun.

In the next second, I heard the maidservant yelling.

"Nurse Xia, the empress dowager's complexion is not good!"

Knowing that the person in the small pavilion is the Empress Dowager, Su Youning's heart was agitated, and after thinking about it, he immediately went to the center of the small pavilion in the garden.

She didn't rush in to get close to the Queen Mother immediately, but stood outside the small pavilion, respectfully saluting Nurse Xia inside.

"Nurse Xia, I am Princess Yu, and I am good at medicine. Can you let me see the illness of the Empress Dowager?"

Madam Xia was not surprised that Su Youning could call her Madam Xia with one sip, but she stopped in front of her and looked at the palace dress on Su Youning's body vigilantly.

"You are Miss Su's family?"

Su Youning nodded, with a hint of anxiety on his face.

Madam Xia still didn't let her approach, she frowned and said coldly.

"The imperial physician is coming soon, Princess Yu please come back."

The servant girl supporting the empress dowager saw the empress dowager's face gradually pale, and couldn't help shouting in fear.

"Mommy Xia, Mommy Xia, the Empress Dowager"

Knowing the urgency of the situation, Su Youning didn't care about etiquette right now, so she pushed Aunt Xia away and rushed in.

The silver-haired Empress Dowager was clutching her chest and collapsed on the bench in the pavilion, her face was terribly pale, and her whole body began to shiver with cold.

Su Youning didn't care about other things, stepped forward to support the Queen Mother, quickly reached out and pulled the Queen Mother's wide sleeves to feel her pulse.

The empress dowager looked at the woman who was taking her pulse in front of her in a daze.

"you!"
