Concubine Shu looked at the crumbling Lan Bin in front of her, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes, feeling that she was as annoying as Concubine Rou.

"I just asked you to salute, as if I had bullied you. Why, is Lan Bin dissatisfied with me?" Concubine Shu spoke in a mocking tone.

Zhao Shuyi also echoed: "I heard that Sister Lan Bin didn't respect you very much before the final election. I thought it was a rumor. Now that I see Lan Bin acting like this, it seems that those so-called rumors are not unfounded."

"I heard that Lan Concubine was infatuated with Your Majesty when she was in the boudoir. It was because I was too polite and not as bold and enthusiastic as Lan Concubine, so I didn't like Your Majesty." Shen Jieyu looked Wenwan, but what she said was... The sentences were thorny, and Ling Wanying's face turned pale.

Ling Wanying lowered her eyes, the Shen family, the Zhao family, and Concubine Shu's Qin family were all the murderers who killed her cousin and the Su family's royal family.

Seeing that Ling Wanying was silent, Concubine Shu was a little impatient. She took a few steps forward and raised her face with slender fingers, feeling the softness and delicateness of the skin under her hands. Concubine Shu couldn't help but increase her strength until she heard Ling Wanying let out a cry of pain. , she came back to her senses, glanced at Ling Wanying's gradually turning red skin with unknown meaning, and said disgustedly: "Did you rely on this pitiful appearance to seduce His Majesty?"

"Lan Concubine." Concubine Shu recited this title with the word "lan" in her mind, recalling the injustice she suffered by the lotus pond. Concubine Rou, that little bitch, actually humiliated her in front of His Majesty. She was one of the four concubines. Her father is the Minister of War, and several of her brothers also hold important positions in the court. Concubine Rou is just the daughter of a wealthy businessman in Suzhou City, but she is still on an equal footing with her.

Thinking of this, Concubine Shu's hands became harder and harder. Seeing the tears in Lan Bin's eyes, holding back the pain, she said, "Why don't you answer my words? Is it true that as Zhao Shuyi said, Lan Bin, you are relying on your favor?" Are you arrogant and looking down on me?"

"No, Concubine Shu, I have misunderstood." Ling Wanying still maintained her salute, but the pain on her face made her look paler.

"Your Majesty is not here, so what's the use of looking so pitiful? I heard that Your Majesty left Yilan Palace last night and stayed with Concubine Rou, who had a recurrence of her heart disease. It can be seen that what Your Majesty is thinking about is still Concubine Rou from Ganquan Palace. , Lan Concubine is better at imitating Mo Dongshi and making people laugh." As soon as Zhao Shuyi finished speaking, Concubine Shu turned to look at her with cold eyes, "Concubine Shu, concubine..."

But before she could explain anything, Concubine Shu slapped her in the face and said sternly: "No one dares to talk nonsense."

Zhao Shuyi did not expect that Concubine Shu would really hit her. After all, although her family background was not as good as Concubine Shu, her father was once a general under the late emperor, and she had a life-or-death relationship with the late emperor. Today, she treats her father with great courtesy, and her brother now also She held an important position in the Forbidden Army, so even if she said something wrong, Concubine Shu would not beat her.

But when she was touched by Concubine Shu's cold gaze, Zhao Shuyi did not dare to speak. She just covered her face and remained silent. Ling Wanhua seemed to be frightened. Her shaky body failed to hold on and fell to the ground. She covered her mouth, her beautiful eyes filled with tears. Horrified.

"Zhao Shuyi is His Majesty's concubine. Concubine Shu will not stop beating her." Ling Wanying spoke against Concubine Shu's cold gaze.

"Oh, so what." Concubine Shu had always followed her own will, relying on the power of her father and brother at home and the two princes under her knees to be arrogant and domineering in the palace. However, such a person, even if he was disgusted by His Majesty, never changed his temper.

She only blamed the other concubines for His Majesty's dislike of her, believing that those concubines deceived the Emperor with their clever words and tricks.

One day, His Majesty will see their true colors and return to the past days in the East Palace with her.

Seeing Concubine Lan fall down, Mo Yao wanted to reach out to help her, but thinking of her connection with the eldest palace maid next to Concubine Shu, she abruptly stopped extending her hand, secretly looking forward to Li Li coming back to Yi Lan Palace to get her clothes. Auntie, come quickly.

Sumei secretly regretted her covetousness for the scenery outside the palace today, so she followed Empress Lanbi out. She had forgotten that Empress Lanbi had been her sole favorite for several months and had become the object of jealousy among the concubines in the harem. As expected, she met the arrogant and domineering Shu. Concubine.

The Sumei people still remember that when they were in the East Palace, His Majesty, who was still the Crown Prince, only praised her for her graceful and graceful dancing, so Concubine Shu let her dance in the courtyard all night. From then on, she injured her foot and could no longer dance.

When His Majesty learned about this, he only punished Concubine Shu every month, and told her that Concubine Shu was straightforward and had no ill intentions, so that she could forgive her.

At that time, the Sumei people saw through the ruthlessness behind Duan Li's gentle face. Now that they met Concubine Shu, the Sumei people could not only worry about Lan Bin, but also pray that His Majesty would pass by.

But the Royal Garden is the coldest in winter, so why would Your Majesty come here?
The Sumei people panicked and heard the attendant An Xuan say: "Although Concubine Shu is the fourth concubine, she does not have the right to discipline the concubines in the palace. If the concubine's etiquette is not standardized, the Queen Mother and the Empress will teach her. Concubine Shu has taken over my duties."

An Xuanshi, who was kneeling behind Lan Bin, spoke up. She supported Ling Wanying and said with firm eyes: "Ms. Lan Bin's body is delicate, and she may not be able to withstand the difficulties of Empress Shu.

Empress Shufei usually relies on the power of her father and brother and His Majesty's favor to be arrogant and domineering. Unlike Empress Lanbin, even though her father is a general who governs the country and her brothers are guarding the border, she is gentle to others and kind-hearted. How can such a kind-hearted person? Maybe he won't be pitied by His Majesty? "

Su Meiren slowly opened her eyes as she listened to the voices around her. Is this what the always timid and timid An Xuanshi said?She is crazy!

Concubine Shu didn't expect that an inconspicuous palace concubine would dare to say that to her. She couldn't restrain her anger. She pointed at the stern-faced attendant An Xuan and said angrily: "Slap your mouth, break her mouth for me..." …”

Lan Bin stood in front of An Xuanshi, and the rough palm of the nanny next to Shu Fei fell on Lan Bi's face. Her delicate face suddenly became red and swollen. The nanny was startled and looked at Shu Fei, but Shu Fei said sharply. Said: "See what I do, I will hold them down and teach them the meaning of superiority and inferiority..."

"Then Concubine Shu, why don't you tell me what is superiority and inferiority..." A bright yellow figure appeared behind everyone at some point, along with the empress with a serious face. "Concubine Shu, you have gone too far." the queen said.

"His Majesty……"

The concubine was kneeling on the floor in the imperial garden. Duan Li walked through the crowd and came to Ling Wanying's side. He picked her up and said to the queen: "Since it is a harem matter, I'll leave it to you to handle."

After the emperor left with Ling Wanying, An Xuanji breathed a sigh of relief and knelt down on the ground. He heard the queen say coldly: "Concubine Shu used lynching at will. Her heart is vicious and she cannot bear to be the prince's biological mother. The two princes will be The upbringing of a good concubine..."

"Queen..." Concubine Shu looked up and saw that there was no warmth in the eyes of the always magnanimous queen, "This is your Majesty's wish."

"You are lying. Your Majesty did not say that. Your Majesty said that everyone in the palace is lying, but I am frank and cute. How could your Majesty separate me from the two princes because of what just happened? You must be indifferent between public and private matters..."

While Concubine Shu was still talking, she heard the Queen say: "Concubine Shu, think through what you want to say before speaking out."

Seeing the threat in the queen's eyes, Concubine Shu shut her mouth, shook off the palace man who was holding her, raised her chin slightly, and said: "I will return to Shun'an Palace and wait for your majesty's will. Without your majesty's will, no one can We cannot take away the two princes."

Zhao Shuyi grabbed the hem of her clothes fiercely. After being helped back to her residence by the palace servants, she was not moved at all when faced with the punishment of being grounded and demoted. Instead, she whispered: "My parents never reprimanded me, but Concubine Shu actually beat me. Concubine Shu..."

In Yilan Palace, Duan Li wanted to touch the injury on Ling Wanying's face, but saw Ling Wanying turned her head away. He thought Ling Wanying was complaining about him. He felt complicated and a little boring for a moment, but he heard Ling Wanying say: " I must be very ugly now, Your Majesty, don’t look at me.”

Duan Li didn't know whether he breathed a sigh of relief or because Ling Wanying didn't expect any words of complaint, so he couldn't help but smile and said, "You don't blame me?"

"Why do you resent Your Majesty? Your Majesty did not do what happened today." Ling Wanying said, maybe she had a wound, and she couldn't help crying out in pain. Duan Li raised his hand to hold her down, and looked at the wound on her face, which was deep red. The mark on the delicate face looked particularly terrifying.

Ling Wanying had tears in her eyes, "Your Majesty, isn't it ugly?"

Duan Li moved his lips slightly and said with deep eyes, "Not ugly."

"If I had come back as promised yesterday, you wouldn't have..." Before Duan Li could finish his words, Ling Wanying covered her lips. Although there were tears in Ling Wanying's eyes, there was no resentment as Duan Li imagined, and she was still the same as before. Clear and innocent, "Concubine Rou is not feeling well. Your Majesty should spend more time with her. I don't want to embarrass Your Majesty. If Your Majesty feels uncomfortable, I will feel heartache."

Ling Wanying seemed to be obsessed with Duan Li, and she really regarded Duan Li as everything to her.

Duan Li knew that he should not live up to her full affection, nor should he doubt this woman who had been admiring him for three years, but he still couldn't help but test out: "If I am worried about the power of Concubine Shu's family, I will treat her badly." If I open my mouth and don't vent my anger on your behalf, will you blame me?"

"How could your Majesty think this way? I will never complain to Your Majesty in any way. I finally came to His Majesty and was blessed by the gods and Buddhas, so I deserve to suffer. I only wish to be by your Majesty's side. As long as I can I often see His Majesty, not to mention being slapped, even if I am forced to kneel in the ice and snow, I have no complaints." Duan Li believed Ling Wanying's words sincerely.

He had to believe that God still took pity on him and sent a woman who was devoted to him wholeheartedly to him. Duan Li couldn't help but hugged Ling Wanying and promised, "I won't let you suffer such great grievances."

After a pause, he said again: "I will change your residence for you."

After the doctor girl looked at it, Ling Wanying took the medicine and stopped due to the power of the medicine. Duan Li left the room and saw Su Mei and An Xuanshi. Their expressions were calm and calm, and they just said lightly: "You did a good job today."

Before Mei Su and An Xuanshi could react, the young emperor had already left the Yilan Palace. Manager Cui heard the emperor say: "The hands that humiliated Concubine Lan today were broken and given to Concubine Shu."

Manager Cui was surprised. Before he could respond, he heard the emperor say: "Go to Ningfu Palace."

If the shadow guard hadn't left quietly, Manager Cui would have thought that he had misheard the emperor's order just now.

The importance of Lan Bin was mentioned again in Manager Cui's mind.

The Queen Mother soon found out about the Imperial Garden.
