I was given the contraceptive soup and became the emperor's white moonlight

"Empress Zhaoyi," Lan Xin of Jingyang Palace stood in front of Su Minglang and knelt slightly, "I am Jingyang Palace Lan Xin. My young master wants to invite you over for a gathering, so I have specially sent this servant to invite you."

"Madam Shufei?" Su Minglang looked at the maid in front of her who was respectful on the surface but neither humble nor arrogant on the inside. "Since my sister has invited me, I, as a younger sister, will naturally not refuse. However, I have not dressed up yet, so Miss Lanxin, please wait for a moment."

"Of course," Lan Xin leaned forward slightly, "It's just that I'm waiting, but I don't know where the Concubine Shu is..."

"What a sharp-tongued girl!" Su Minglang was secretly surprised. She thought that Concubine Gu was obsessed with the emperor and it would be easy for her to use her as a knife in her hand. However, she did not expect that a maidservant beside her had such a complicated mind.

However, Su Minglang soon felt relieved. After all, Concubine Shu was born in the Gu family, and Prime Minister Gu was proficient in state governance strategies. How could a simple person be able to walk out of the Gu Mansion, enter the palace with her own lady as a dowry maid, and quickly become the head of the first-class maids?

"Of course I won't keep Concubine Shu waiting for long," Su Minglang waved her hand and said, "Come here, hurry up and give Miss Lan Xin a seat!"

Lan Xin thanked him and sat down obediently. She was a little unsure about Su Minglang's thoughts.

"Ye Zi," Su Minglang called in a low voice, "Go and call Nan Xing over, and bring her to Jingyang Palace later."

"Yes!" Xiao Ye responded and walked out of the main hall without looking around.

"Let's go, Miss Lan?" Su Minglang let the palace maids tidy up their clothes and asked Lan Xin with a slight smile.

"Yes, please, madam."

Lan Xin hurriedly stood up and bent her knees slightly.

When Su Minglang walked out of the palace gate, the sedan chair had already been prepared, and Xiao Ye and Nan Xing were waiting on one side.

"Nanxing, come forward."

Su Minglang walked slowly onto the sedan chair, turned sideways and whispered, "When we go to Jingyang Palace today, keep your eyes open and see if there are any good talents that can be used."

"Yes!" Nanxing lowered his eyes, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

"Let's go!"

At Su Minglang's command, the sedan chair was slowly lifted up. She sat high on it, overlooking the palace maids and eunuchs who turned around to avoid the view beside the palace road.

"Hey! Isn't this Sister Su?"

A sharp and harsh voice was heard, causing Su Minglang to frown and look up.

"It's different when you are favored by His Majesty. When Zhaoyi goes out, she can ride in a sedan chair, unlike us who can only walk on our feet. Don't you think so, Sister Qi?"

"This..." Concubine Qi's eyes moved hesitantly between Su Minglang and the voice.

"Xian Zhaorong?" Su Minglang waved her hand to stop the sedan chair. "I didn't know you were here. I'm sorry for being so rude."

She said her apology but had no intention of getting up. Instead, she leaned against the soft pillow of the sedan and yawned lazily.

"I haven't been feeling well these days, so I won't be able to get up to greet you. Please forgive me."

"Oh, you are not worthy of it!" Xian Zhaorong curled her lips in disdain, her eyes shooting sharply at the maidservants beside Su Minglang, "You sluts! How dare you not kneel before me!"

Xian Zhaorong knew that her status was equal to Su Minglang's but she was not as favored as Su Minglang. She had no place to vent her anger and could only vent it on the palace maids around her.

"I told you to kneel down, don't you understand?" Xian Zhaorong walked towards Lan Xin, who was closest to her, with an angry face, raised her hand and slapped her.

"Bang!" Lan Xin covered her face and stared at Xian Zhaorong in disbelief. She was caught off guard by such a blow and even she could not react.

Su Minglang stopped watching the show and stood up from the sedan chair anxiously. He walked to Lan Xin in two or three steps and asked, "Miss Lan Xin, is there anything wrong?"

"I have caused the girl to suffer an unprovoked disaster for no reason."

"I dare not. I'm sorry to trouble you, Zhaoyi." Lan Xin gritted her teeth silently and glared at Xian Zhaorong angrily.

"Sister!" Su Minglang then looked at Xian Zhaorong, "What are you doing? How can you just hit someone casually?"

"Why? Sister, do you think that since you are favored by His Majesty, even the slaves around you can follow suit? I just taught the unruly servants a lesson. Does Zhaoyi want to ask me for an explanation?"

"I dare not," Su Minglang lowered her head timidly, "Sister wants to teach the maids around me a lesson, so I naturally dare not object."

"But," Su Minglang hesitated for a moment, looking at Lan Xin's swollen right cheek, "but sister should never teach a lesson to the girls in the palace of Concubine Shu casually!"

Xian Zhaorong was obviously flustered, and pretended to be calm and rebuked: "Shufei? What Shufei did you say? Su Minglang, don't use Shufei to pressure me. Everyone knows that you and Shufei have had a quarrel a long time ago. You can't deceive me!"

At this time, Lan Xin, who had been silent all this time, slowly walked up to her and bowed politely, "I am Lan Xin, a maid under the command of Concubine Shu of Jingyang Palace. I am honored to meet Concubine Xian!"

"You, you!" Seeing that the dust had settled, Xian Zhaorong was at a loss for a moment. She pointed at Lan Xin in panic and couldn't utter a word for a long time.

"Sister Xian!" Concubine Qi, who had been playing ostrich by the side, was afraid that she would bump into the one in Concubine Shu's palace again, so she hurriedly stepped forward and pulled her to her side, "Sister, you'd better say less!"

Xian Zhaorong, who was already suppressing her anger, was provoked by her words and immediately shook off her hand, "You were watching the show while I was talking just now, and now you stand up and pretend to be a good person!"

"What happened to Concubine Shu? The maids in Concubine Shu's palace are just maids. I can beat the servants who don't follow the rules. Can Concubine Shu come to me to ask for an explanation?"

"Hmph!" Concubine Xian vented a lot of anger and left without looking back.

Su Minglang looked at her fleeing back, and the anger in Lan Xin's eyes that was almost unable to be suppressed, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

From this point of view, the feud between Concubine Gu and Concubine Xian was probably formed.

"Miss Lan, does your face hurt?" Su Minglang looked at Lan Xin with pity, and gently stroked her cheek with heartache. "I have some good ointment. I'll send someone to give it to you someday."

"No need, madam. Thank you for your kindness."

Lan Xin retracted her gaze and said in a low voice, "We've been delayed for so long on the road. I'm afraid the queen must be waiting anxiously. Let's go quickly."

"Okay, okay!" Su Minglang nodded and sat back in the sedan. The moment he turned around, the heartache in his eyes instantly disappeared, leaving only ridicule and mockery.

Judging from the personality of this Miss Lan Xin in her memory, she would definitely go to Concubine Gu to complain when she returned to Jingyang Palace. Concubine Gu was also known for her love-brained personality and her protective temper, especially since this Miss Lan Xin was her confidant whom she brought from the Gu Mansion.
