She couldn't stand this.

Madam Li pointed at Xu Shengsheng's nose and said, "You said you followed me from Jiangnan City? Do you have any evidence?"

-

Xu Shengsheng was pointed at by Madam Li. She touched her burning face with a complaint, and continued to cry while looking at Madam Li with an innocent face: "Madam, you forgot that when we left Jiangnan City, you asked me to ride in a carriage with you."

Madam Li glanced in the direction of the two nobles sitting in the upper seats. She frowned, squinted her eyes and asked her loudly: "Do you have evidence to prove that I asked you to ride in a carriage with me? If you don't have evidence, you are framing me!"

"Yes... I have witnesses." Xu Shengsheng pulled as many witnesses as she could. She looked towards Liang Tan with tears in her eyes and pointed at Liang Tan with a bitter face: "The eldest lady was also present at the time. She is a witness..."

When he was suddenly mentioned, Liang Tan's eyes became even colder.

The eyes of many noble ladies also turned in the direction of Liang Tan.

Liang Tan sat upright, not affected by Xu Shengsheng at all.

Xu Shengsheng shouted at Liang Tan: "Miss, tell me, was it Madam Li who asked me to get on her carriage at that time?"

Liang Tan raised her eyes and looked at Xu Shengsheng coldly. Then she said quietly, "I have never seen it."

After all, they all came from the Liang Mansion, and this idiot would always stand on her side whenever she and Liang You had a conflict.

I didn’t expect it…I didn’t expect it!

This idiot Liang Tan actually lied in public!

Xu Shengsheng was so angry that her lungs were about to explode!

She covered her chest with one hand and pointed at Liang Tan, whose face was calm, with the other hand trembling. She burst into tears: "You - Liang Tan! You are an accomplice to the evil!"

Listening to Xu Shengsheng's words, Liang Tan raised an eyebrow and chuckled: "What do you mean by 'helping a tiger with its own hands'?"

Xu Shengsheng didn't know what Liang Tan meant, so she stiffened her neck and confirmed again: "You are now helping the tiger!"

Liang Tan smiled indifferently: "Girl, you should study hard."

After saying that, Liang Tan turned away without caring about Xu Shengsheng's exciting expression. She looked at the two nobles sitting in the upper seats, walked around the table and saluted.

The imperial concubine moved her fingers slightly and Liang Tan returned to his seat.

Although Liang Tan was far away in Jiangnan City, they had heard of Liang Tan's reputation for noble character.

So this matter must have nothing to do with Liang Tan.

Liang Tan sat back in his seat, and Xu Shengsheng was excited.

[Why did the Queen and the Imperial Concubine trust the straw bag so much? 】

[Could it be that this idiot has some kind of magic trick! ]

But Liang Tan didn't fall into the trap, so Xu Shengsheng began to accuse Madam Li in a low voice: "Madam, have you forgotten what you just said?"

Mrs. Li's pupils trembled slightly.

Suddenly I remembered what I said when I was kneeling in the garden.

[“This is the locust flower cake that I specially present to the Queen and the Imperial Concubine. Although locust flower cakes are not uncommon, the taste of the locust flower cake I am presenting today is different from the past. I believe that the Queen and the Imperial Concubine will praise it highly after tasting it.”]

Mrs. Li felt sweat on her back.

"You bullshit!"

Madam Li swallowed her saliva, avoided the topic, and then attacked Xu Shengsheng: "I kindly recommended you to make cakes for the noble, but not only were you ungrateful, you even bit back. I must have been blind to bring you to the Spring Banquet!"

"Madam Li...are you not admitting it?" Xu Shengsheng obviously didn't want to let Madam Li off so easily, so she took back the words.

The murder of a noble in the palace.

She doesn't want to take the blame alone.

Seeing that Xu Shengsheng was still holding on to the topic, Madam Li frowned. She thought about her words and said, "What I said just now was a slip of the tongue. Everyone makes mistakes. If the Queen punishes me, I am willing to plead guilty."

Madam Li kowtowed to the Queen decisively.

The high-ranking Queen Lü Jinglan looked at Madam Li. She raised her hand gently, and the sound of a gurgling stream slowly sounded -

"Forget it. Today is the Spring Festival Banquet. I don't want to bother with these trivial matters."

"The Queen is kind and merciful." Madam Li kowtowed as if relieved and returned to her seat.

She stared at Xu Shengsheng, wishing she could tear her bones and tendons apart!

I didn't expect that I was so kind to bring her to the Spring Banquet to broaden her horizons, but I didn't expect that the little bitch would repay my kindness with evil.

She was so blind.

Mrs. Li was so angry that she immediately lost her appetite.

When Xu Shengsheng saw that the Queen didn't care, she felt relieved.

This time she learned her lesson and kowtowed to the two nobles, then stepped aside without raising her head.

Her face was still burning with pain, and Xu Shengsheng's hand quietly touched her cheek.

It’s all Madam Li’s fault. She made me look bad in front of so many people.

And that Liang Tan, she didn't even speak up for her, she would keep this account and punish her doubly hard in the future!

Xu Shengsheng felt resentful.

After she expressed her resentment towards these two people, she tried to comfort herself in her heart.

It’s soon going to be Xu Shengsheng’s turn to shine!

By then, she will win first prize at the Spring Banquet and become famous in the capital! She will become a celebrity in the capital!

Hum, by then...

What a bunch of crap ladies, none of them can compare to her brilliance!

Xu Shengsheng felt much more relieved when thinking about this.

She stepped aside and waited quietly for the opportunity to come!

Until the second half of the Spring Banquet, the ladies took turns to perform their best talents in the garden.

Xu Shengsheng knew that the opportunity was coming soon!

She began to go over the poems again in her mind, not paying any attention to Liang Tan who was playing the pipa in the garden.

It was not until thunderous applause broke out in the garden that Xu Shengsheng came out of her own world. She looked towards the figure in blue and white shirt in the garden.

Let’s look at the two noble ladies. Queen Lü Jinglan is well versed in music. She was still immersed in the sound of Liang Tan’s pipa until he finished playing a piece, unable to come back to her senses for a long time. Imperial Concubine Li Lan is an amateur. She listens to the pipa just for fun, but Liang Tan’s pipa music gave her goose bumps. Li Lan also showed admiration to Liang Tan.

"The pipa music played by the eldest daughter of the Liang family in Jiangnan City is indeed soul-stirring..." Lu Jinglan put her sleeve under her eyes and wiped away a tear: "Listening to your music, I remembered the scene when I saw my father for the last time many years ago. I was really heartbroken... Reward, reward."

"I'm not as engrossed as the Queen, but you play really well. You're a talented woman! I'll reward you, too."

Liang Tan in the garden received rewards one after another. She smiled slightly and thanked the two nobles.

[Tsk, wait till I come on stage and I'll let you know what a truly talented woman is.]

Liang Tan was listening to Xu Shengsheng's mumbling. Just as she was about to stand up, she saw Xu Shengsheng walking towards her with confident steps, kneeling beside her and paying homage to the two nobles.

Li Lan glanced at Xu Shengsheng and asked casually, "Do you have anything else to say?"
