I just want to live a happy life

After helping Wei Yanwan clean up, Chunchan said worriedly, "Today, we taught Hai Guiren a lesson in the Imperial Garden. The Emperor will definitely know about it. What if the Emperor punishes the Master for her fault?"

Wei Yanwan was not worried at all. She relaxed her body and leaned against the soft pillow, saying nonchalantly, "Don't worry. I won't fight an unprepared battle. The emperor won't punish me."

Seeing her master so confident, although she was a little worried, Chunchan didn't say anything. After all, it had been done and there was no point in thinking more. If the emperor really punished her master, she would take full responsibility and say that it was she who suggested it to her master and it was she who instigated her master.

There was such a loud commotion in the Imperial Garden that it would be hard for the concubines in the harem to not know about it. Although it was Concubine Hai who did not salute Concubine Ling, she should not have slapped Concubine Hai in the face, and hit her so hard.

Seeing how arrogant Concubine Ling is, the Emperor will definitely be angry.

Some people in the harem who looked down on Wei Yanwan were silently watching how the emperor would punish her next.

However, things developed completely differently from what they expected. The emperor had no intention of punishing Wei Yanwan and even loved her very much. Ever since Wei Yanwan became a noble lady, the emperor had been in Yongshou Palace for seven or eight days in a row.

She was truly favored by the emperor.

It's impossible that the emperor didn't know about this, but he just didn't care about Concubine Hai and had no intention of compensating her.

Soon, on the first day of the new year, the emperor went to the queen's palace to rest. During the conversation, the queen suddenly mentioned what happened in the imperial garden that day and wanted to know what the emperor thought.

The Queen saw that the Emperor had an expression as if he had finally remembered an old incident: "Queen, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten about it. Since it was Noble Lady Hai's fault, she should be punished accordingly."

"Li Yu, go to the Yanxi Palace and tell me that I want to demote Concubine Hai to a concubine and let her learn some rules."

Li Yu was shocked, but as a senior eunuch, he knew a lot and had learned to remain calm: "Yes, Your Majesty, I will go right away."

The Queen felt both happy and disappointed. She was happy that Concubine Hai, whom she disliked, was punished, but she was disappointed because she didn't expect that Concubine Ling was so favored by the Emperor.

She might have intended to suppress Concubine Ling by talking about this matter today, but she did not expect that the plan would not succeed at all and even made things difficult for Concubine Ling.

Because the emperor felt sorry for Concubine Ling, he actually gave her a lot of compensation in front of her. The emperor also had a distressed expression on his face, and she almost vomited blood.

Although Li Yu is the chief eunuch beside the emperor, he has always been close to Ruyi in his heart. And as Hai Guiren is a sister beside Ruyi, he naturally has to take care of her. He thought that if she knew how to compete for favor and please the emperor, she would be smarter.

But he didn't expect him to be so stupid. Now, he has provoked a strong enemy. Li Yu can foresee that Hai Chang will have a hard time in the future.

Li Yu was a little hesitant. She hadn't decided whether to help her for Ruyi's sake. She would make plans later.

After Li Yu went to deliver the imperial edict, Hai Lan felt like the sky was falling. She was finally conferred a noble lady, and before she could help her sister escape from the cold palace, she was banished to the period before liberation. How could she accept this?

Hai Lan hugged herself sadly and said, "Sister, when will you come out of the cold palace? When you are not here, everyone in the palace bullies me."

But at the same time, she was very regretful. If she had known that Wei Yanwan was so difficult to deal with, she should have sent her to the greenhouse and dealt with her secretly. Otherwise, she would not have bothered her now.

........

As the weather gets colder, Hai Lan plans to go to the cold palace to give her sister some cotton clothes, quilts, etc. so that her sister can spend the winter comfortably.

Although it would cost a lot of money to prepare all these, it didn’t matter. As long as her sister was well, she would be very happy.

Ye Xin helped Hai Lan prepare. She seemed to want to say something but hesitated. But after thinking about it, she gave up. She had tried to persuade her before, but she never listened.

Hai Lan took Ye Xin to the cold palace in a low-key manner. When they were just one street away from the cold palace, Hai Lan saw Wei Yanwan appear in front of her.

With a malicious smile on her face, Wei Yanwan held Chunchan's hand and walked step by step to Hailan's side. She looked Hailan up and down, then looked at the bag hanging on Ye Xin's arm and asked knowingly, "Hai Changzai, where are you going?"

Hai Lan learned her lesson this time. No matter how reluctant she was, she still respectfully bowed to Wei Yanwan.

After asking, Wei Yanwan kept looking at Hai Lan, as if she would not give up until she achieved her goal.

Hailan pursed her lips and said, "I just went to see my sister in the cold palace."

Wei Yanwan immediately slapped Hailan in the face, causing her to stagger a few times and almost fall to the ground.

Ye Xin was anxious: "Mr. Ling, how could you hit my master?"

Wei Yanwan ignored her and said coldly to Hai Lan: "You are the emperor's concubine, and the one in the cold palace is just a commoner. You actually call her sister. The emperor asked you to learn the rules well, but you forgot them. You are really a cheap, seductive thing."

Hai Lan raised her head, looked at Wei Yanwan and said, "I didn't do that. Your Excellency, you are framing me."

Wei Yanwan: "You still don't admit it. Everyone knows what happened to you in the past. You climbed into the emperor's bed when you were in the palace. Otherwise, how could you, a maid, become the master?"

Wei Yanwan recalled that in the original plot, the bitch Hailan had slandered the original owner many times and took the lead in bullying the original owner. No matter what the original owner did, she would be labeled as restless.

If the original owner had not been strong-willed and hardworking, she would not have been able to spend so many years in the harem. She would have probably been bullied to death long ago.

Doesn’t Hai Lan like to make up rumors about the original owner for others and bully the original owner? Everyone can do that. This time, no matter what the protagonists do, she will intervene and make them suffer.

Hailan actually dared to talk back, so Wei Yanwan slapped her again and said angrily, "You really have no rules."

As she spoke, Wei Yanwan glanced at Chunchan, who understood what she meant and snatched the bag from Ye Xin's hand.

Wei Yanwan said, "The Emperor said that concubines in the harem are not allowed to go to the cold palace. You dared to violate it knowingly. It seems that you have never taken the palace rules to heart. I have seen it and will punish you on behalf of the Empress. Kneel down in front of me."

A higher-ranking official can crush a person to death, so Hailan could only kneel down reluctantly.

Wei Yanwan called out the spring cicada again.

Chunchan put the bag on the ground beside her, then walked to Hailan's side, raised her hand and greeted Hailan in the face.

The sound of snapping continued.

Seeing Hai Lan screaming as she was slapped, she suddenly thought of the incident in the original plot where Rong Pei, that dog servant, beat her original owner. Since Hai Lan was Ruyi's loyal lackey, she would use her as a starting point to let Chun Chan get familiar with her so that when she slapped Ruyi and that bitch Rong Pei, she wouldn't be unfamiliar with them. It would be bad if it didn't hurt.
