Su Manman turned around and saw Li Yuwan, who had just arrived after receiving the notification, with an arrogant look on her face, and she felt unhappy.

The swelling on this man's face from yesterday's beating has subsided, and there is no trace of the tragic situation from yesterday.

As for the tiny scratches on her face, they were not noticeable to begin with and were covered up by makeup, so there was no sign of anything unusual.

I’m not wearing orange or red today, but dark purple, which makes me look like a bunch of poisoned grapes.

After yesterday's lesson, when she approached, Su Manman subconsciously took two steps away to prevent her from slandering her for pushing her again.

"If you want to punish the concubine who made the mistake, I don't mind."

Su Manman was halfway through her words when she looked at Concubine Wei who dared not say anything when she saw Li Yuwan appear.

As for this useless lackey, if it wasn't for the fact that Wenzhi risked his life to protect his master, she wouldn't even look at him twice after he came.

"However, I remember that in two days, the Minister of War's Madam Wei will host a spring banquet, and Madam Wei will attend on behalf of the Emperor."

As soon as Su Manman finished speaking slowly, Li Yuwan's expression changed.

If Concubine Wei is injured and cannot go, it will be a loss of face for the Emperor.

In addition, compared with the Li family of the Minister of Rites, Zhao Chengyuan now obviously values ​​the Wei family of the Minister of War more.

Although Wei Yixiu was a concubine's daughter of the Wei family, she was the only one among the daughters of official families who entered the palace together who jumped from a concubine to a noble lady of the seventh rank in less than half a year.

Given how much importance Zhao Chengyuan attaches to the Wei family now, if she hadn't entered the palace late, she would have been promoted to the position of concubine.

"Since Concubine Wei has admitted her mistake, I will not hold it against you. Come, release Concubine Wei."

Although Li Yuwan was furious, fortunately she still had her brains together.

After hearing what Su Manman said, he realized that if something unexpected happened to Concubine Wei, it would cause Zhao Chengyuan's dissatisfaction with him, so he stopped getting angry.

It’s just a pity for Concubine Wei.

After being tied up for a long time, exposed to the sun, and covered with ants, when he was released, his legs were so weak that he could not stand, and he had to kowtow to express his gratitude.

"Send Concubine Wei to the imperial physician for a checkup."

Su Manman didn't like her very much, but seeing how miserable she looked, she still felt some sympathy for her.

Although this person usually goes against her, he is not that bad.

Because he was young and had just entered the palace, he wanted to curry favor with the powerful and was often used as a tool by Concubine Li without realizing it.

After Concubine Wei was sent away, Su Manman, who felt uncomfortable staying with Li Yuwan for even a moment longer, also turned around and left.

But just as she left, Li Yuwan suddenly winked at the servant beside her.

Just when Su Manman walked under the tree, someone nearby poked a white ant nest on the tree with a long pole!

The fallen ant nest hit Su Manman right on the body.

"Ah!!! Li Yuwan, you vicious woman! I will never let you go!"

The countless ants falling on her body made Su Manman instantly furious.

Li Yuwan, who was standing not far away, watched her jumping around in panic, trying to get the ants off her body, but pretended to be surprised.

"Oh! I was just afraid that this thing would accidentally fall into someone else's possession in the future, so I asked someone to clean it up. Who knew that you, Queen, would be so careless."

Su Manman was furious. This person's deliberate intention was too obvious!

She was already in a bad mood today and had no place to vent her anger. Li Yuwan's move was like hitting a wall of steel.

She shook off the ants on her body and calmed down a little.

"Since Concubine Li wants to be a good person so much, I will help you!"

After saying that, Jiezhi snatched the long pole from the servant, poked down the hornet's nest directly, and threw it towards Li Yuwan at lightning speed.

"Ah!!! Are you crazy! Aaaaaah!! Help!"

In the originally remote and quiet corner, a woman's sharp scream suddenly rang out.

Not long after, Zhao Chengyuan, who was reviewing memorials in the imperial study, suddenly felt his right eyelid twitching wildly.

Thinking he had overstrained his eyes, he had just stopped writing and rubbed his eyes when a messenger hurried in.

"Your Majesty, this is bad! The Queen and the Imperial Concubine are fighting again! This time they even went to the Queen Mother!"

When Zhao Chengyuan heard this, he suddenly stopped pressing his eyelids.

After his queen had been ill, she became full of energy. After just a quarrel with him, she immediately changed her opponent.

This matter has now been brought to the attention of Empress Dowager Su, so he has no choice but to intervene.

He hurried to the Cining Palace where the Empress Dowager was staying. As soon as he reached the door, he heard a quarrel coming from inside.

"Li Guifei hated me for asking her to release Wei Guiren,"

She dug out a termite nest and hit me with it! She bit me so hard! It hurts! You have to help me!"

"I am innocent! I just saw a termite nest on that tree and was afraid that it might fall and hit someone, so I asked someone to deal with it. But the queen happened to pass by... Woo... She even poked a hornet's nest and hit me..."

"Then... I was just in a hurry and was afraid that the hornet's nest would suddenly fall and hit someone, so I was doing a good deed! You... you even picked up a big centipede and threw it at me!"

"You also pulled a passing green snake and threw it at me!"

"You fight back and throw the gecko and kick the toad!"

"That scorpion of yours is not very kind either!"

"..."

It would have been better if he hadn't listened. When Zhao Chengyuan heard the content, he was so scared that his legs split just as he was about to step in.

He knew that the two of them were not on good terms in private, but he didn't expect them to play so wildly.

Any one of the things in their mouths would be quite horrifying if taken alone, but the two of them together have everything.

If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, he wouldn't have known that there could be two more poisons than the Five Poisons in the same place.

Although Empress Dowager Su was the champion of palace fighting when she took office, she had never seen this style of fighting in decades.

Looking at the two young concubines with bruised faces and noses, who killed a thousand enemies and lost a thousand of their own, I sighed silently in my heart: the way young people play is trendy...

Then he slowly spoke to the older son who had just almost done a split and was standing outside the door in a dilemma.

"Your Majesty, what do you think?"

Zhao Chengyuan, who was named, took a deep breath as he looked at the two people whose situations were not good.

"I think... you two should see the imperial physician first..."

"no!"

The two people who both believed that the other was wrong now confronted each other, with swollen and painful faces, and had to determine who was right and who was wrong.

However, Empress Dowager Su said that she was not feeling well at this time and asked Zhao Chengyuan to take care of her while she went back to her inner bed to rest.

The six of them looked at each other. Zhao Chengyuan looked at Su Manman, whose eyes were full of anger, and Concubine Li, who looked weak and pitiful, and hesitant.

No matter who he sides with, it doesn't make sense.

"How about... you two just call it a draw this time? I'll pretend nothing happened and not pursue the matter."

"I disagree!"

Su Manman knew that Concubine Li did it on purpose. She had been tricked by her so many times in the past, and this time, no matter what she said, she couldn't let it go.

Concubine Li, who had been crying out for injustice just now, suddenly became much more humble after the person in charge was replaced by Zhao Chengyuan.
