The queen is sober in the world, and she is winning every step of the palace fight.

Xiangyi's vigilance was not unnecessary.

This is because the hearts of people in this palace are treacherous and unpredictable, and today's smiling faces can become hideous tomorrow.

Just because this maid exposed Yuan, it doesn't mean she can be a friendly party.

But then I heard the palace maid say:

"I'm here to thank Miss Zhao for saving my life."

"That night, I wanted to commit suicide, but it was Lady Zhao who stopped me. I even injured her because of that."

"It is also thanks to Lady Zhao that my family was able to be graciously allowed by His Majesty to escape slavery and become ordinary citizens."

"Now my family has moved to the suburbs of the capital, rented a house, set up a small stall to do business, and now we can live a normal life."

"I am currently working in the Meigui Garden in the east, doing odd jobs taking care of the flowers and trees. The leading aunt and the nanny are very kind to me."

"The safety of me and my family is a gift from Your Majesty, and it is thanks to the blessing and protection of Lady Zhao. I am deeply grateful. I came to thank Lady Zhao as soon as I was settled!"

She spoke clearly and loudly, kneeling on the busy palace road. Her statement immediately attracted a lot of people's attention.

Some of the palace servants passing by stopped to listen, while others, who had errands to do and did not dare to stop, deliberately slowed down their pace to join in the fun.

Fei Wan was very satisfied with the effect.

Of course, the best thing would be to let more and more people know that she is kind.

So he smiled gently and said, "Rise up. I sense your kindness, but your present situation is a gift from His Majesty. It's also because you distinguish right from wrong, refuse to go along with the bad guys, and risk your life to tell the truth and uphold justice. That's why you've earned this good reward. Actually, it has nothing to do with me."

Return the peach.

The palace maids earned her a good reputation.

Fei Wan also took the opportunity to help the palace maid get rid of the bad reputation of "traitor".

She described her potentially despised act of betrayal, in which a maidservant who came with the dowry exposed her master Yuan's private affairs, as a heroic act in pursuit of justice.

Of course, why did this maid inform on her master? It was because she was secretly threatened by Fei Wan's palace servants...

Fei Wan would never let others know about this kind of thing.

Even the palace maid herself didn't know who the masked man who threatened her family's lives was.

After hearing Fei Wan's words, the palace maid naturally understood what Fei Wan meant by clearing her name.

She said loudly with even greater gratitude, "Besides saying anything else, that day, Miss Zhao, you risked your life to save me, even injuring yourself and spending so many days recuperating. In my heart, I regard you as a Bodhisattva! Without you, I would be a corpse with a big hole in my head. You are my second parent. I and my family will pray for you every day from now on!"

She stood upright and kowtowed three times despite Fei Wan's attempts to stop her.

Then, at Feiwan's instruction, he was helped up by Xiangyi.

Xiangyi also smiled at this time.

He kindly said to her, "You know how to distinguish right from wrong and know how to be grateful. In the future, whether in the palace or outside, you will be blessed and God will bless you."

I don’t know whether God will bless her or not, but it is certain that Fei Wan will bless her.

Having just been humiliated by the Queen Mother yesterday, Fei Wan really needed to strengthen her reputation for kindness.

This palace maid arrived at the perfect time.

Fei Wan immediately asked Xiao Hui to take out some change.

He took off the gilded bracelet on his wrist and handed it to the palace maid.

"Take it, take it out of the palace, and help your family settle down. I used to work as a slave for many years outside the palace, and I know it's not easy to make a living by selling things on the street. I don't have that much money on me right now, so you can sell or pawn this bracelet, it might be worth some money."

"My Lord, this is unacceptable..."

The palace maid declined with tears in her eyes and was determined not to accept it.

But how could she be more resolute than Fei Wan?

In the end, Fei Wan still forced the silver and money into his arms.

"My Lady Zhao, you truly are a Bodhisattva. You will surely rise to great heights and attain great wealth and honor!"

The palace maid kowtowed again before wiping her tears and leaving.

When the palace servants passing by saw this, many of them sighed.

In the palace, the maids who came into the palace as dowries with the young ladies were, after all, a minority. Except for some talented and virtuous stewards and managers who were selected from the people, most of the others came from poor families at the bottom of society.

As for the eunuchs, there is no need to mention them.

Which boy from a good family would be willing to be castrated and sent to the palace?

Aren't they all just too poor to make ends meet, or have to get stabbed for various reasons, leaving them with no way out?

Everyone has suffered.

You will understand even more how precious the help from those in higher positions is when life is difficult and you encounter danger.

For a moment, many people sympathized with the palace maid.

My liking for Fei Wan has greatly increased.

Not only did Lady Zhao not feel ashamed of her humble status in the past, she was also willing to help people of the same humble status!

"No wonder His Majesty dotes on her."

"Yes, good things will happen to good people."

"It would be great if there were more masters like Lady Zhao in the palace."

Fei Wan listened to the whispers around her and felt the kind looks from all directions, feeling very happy.

This time, it was very cost-effective to win people’s hearts!

A bracelet and a few pieces of silver are given to one person, but they win the favor of more people.

To be fair.

This is much more cost-effective than her trying hard to please the emperor for a long time, but only being able to win the emperor's favor.

However, everything she has now is based on the emperor's favor.

It is still necessary to continue to please the emperor.

And we can't slack off.

After returning to Guanlan Courtyard, Fei Wan had someone deliver a calligraphy piece to the emperor.

She wrote a new piece of calligraphy based on the emperor's calligraphy, practicing it every day.

She wasn't pretty, but she was serious. She would show the emperor her progress every once in a while so that he would know how much she admired him and their friendship was deepening.

"Master Zhao, I hope my petition today can help you."

What Fei Wan didn't know was that in a place where she couldn't see, the palace maid in gray was holding the silver and gold bracelet she gave her, silently looking in the direction of Guanlan Courtyard and praying.

Yesterday the Queen Mother made things difficult in public.

Today, the palace maid will help Fei Wan gain a good reputation in public.

She had wanted to thank Concubine Zhao for a long time. If it weren't for Concubine Zhao, she would have followed Yuan to do those things. The superiors would not care whether she was forced or not, and would have simply executed her as Yuan's accomplice.

It was Lady Zhao who gave her a chance for a new life.

It gave her family the opportunity to hold their heads up high and become commoners, no longer having to be slaves for generations.

Life was certainly hard for ordinary people out there, but the Yuan family wasn't some wealthy family that could guarantee a lifetime of wealth for their children. Moreover, the Yuan family was now in decline.

Since Lady Zhao had given her a future, she naturally had to help Lady Zhao solve her problems.

Express your gratitude to everyone when the young master needs it most!

"Sister Zhao, there's a letter for you!"

Wu Xiangrong walked in holding two letters.

One of the letters was her own, sent to the letter room by relatives and friends outside the palace.

The other one was from Fei Wan. Her maid Jin Chan went to the mailbox to get the letter and brought it back for Fei Wan.

"From the Noble Lady Zhao... This calligraphy is so beautiful!"

Wu Xiangrong handed the letter to Fei Wan and praised the calligraphy on the cover.

Fei Wan smiled and said, "Lord Yu Shilang is a Jinshi who passed the imperial examination twice. He almost made it to the top three in the first class that year, but he only came in fourth because of a small ink spot on his paper. How can such a person have bad calligraphy?"

She recognized it instantly.

This is the handwriting of my biological father, Yu Zhong.

This was the second letter the Yu family sent to her, following the last time when the Second Young Master Yu wrote a letter to the palace to insult her.

What will you write?

Fei Wanting wanted to know what the Yu family’s attitude would be after Yu Tingjin was banished to the cold palace.
