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

Liu Gengyi was furious: "Who is so cruel? Look at all the injuries I have..."

"Eldest sister, wuwuwu... Please stop interfering in the affairs of the harem, okay? You're so weak and your injuries haven't healed yet, yet you still have to work so hard. Look at your haggard face and the dark circles under your eyes!"

Yu Sujin didn't give Liu Gengyi any chance to speak. Her crying became louder and louder, completely drowning out Liu Gengyi's voice.

"Eldest sister, you've only been assisting in the management of the harem for a short time, and already someone is impatient and is using a self-torture tactic to ruin your reputation. Aren't you heartbroken? Eldest sister, I'm going to His Majesty right now and ask Him to thoroughly investigate this matter and make sure you're cleared of all charges!"

"You are not allowed to go. His Majesty is busy with state affairs, how can you disturb him with such trivial matters in the harem?" Fei Wan stopped him.

"Eldest sister, the imperial physician said that your frail body is due to years of suffering and the impact of your emotions on your body. Now that you've finally overcome your hardships and are finally enjoying a few days of peace and quiet, do you still want to continue to suffer?"

"I serve His Majesty, and I have no grievances. Please stop talking."

Fei Wan waved her hand and asked Yu Sujin to leave.

Almost done.

So the people from the Etiquette Department were asked to respond again and find out the cause of Liu Gengyi's injury.

"Your Highness, she did it all herself!" the old maid who taught etiquette shouted, "From the first day she entered the Palace Administration Office, Miss Liu has been hitting, cursing, and throwing things. She rolled over on the broken porcelain shards on the floor before they were even cleaned up. When the servants went to help her, she scratched several people..."

The eunuch in charge of ceremonies also said, "...Originally, we had Young Lady Liu learn the rules for ten days, but she was so disruptive, so we extended her time until today. Young Lady Liu has been much more well-behaved these past two days, and the eunuchs were just about to report to the Empresses and release her, but tonight, she took advantage of everyone's absence and caused a scene. This is all due to our negligence. Please punish us, Empress Zhao."

The old nanny continued to recount Liu Gengyi's antics, saying that the bruises, small wounds, and even the slap marks on her face had nothing to do with Gong Zhengsi, and that even many of the nannies and aunts who taught at Gong Zhengsi had been injured by her.

One of them was pushed down and hit his head on a chair. He has been dizzy and nauseous for several days. He went to the Imperial Pharmacy to get anti-emetics, which is all recorded.

"My Lady, did Young Master Liu hurt you tonight when she rushed towards you? It was all due to our negligence in guarding. We will accept our punishment when we return!"

After shirking her responsibilities, the nanny showed concern for Fei Wan again, and seemed very sensible and polite.

Fei Wan understood that while Liu Gengyi was a source of worry, the Palace Administration Office certainly tormented her as well. A minor concubine without favor, offending a favored concubine and then being punished by the Emperor and the virtuous concubine, could easily imagine the situation she faced.

But if she insisted on going this far, Fei Wan would not be able to redress her grievances.

"The palace maids came to my rescue quickly. I wasn't attacked by her, but I was just startled. I'll just go back and drink a bowl of calming soup."

Fei Wan was calm and composed, and Yu Sujin interrupted, "Eldest sister, you don't look well. Are you feeling uncomfortable in your heart? We need to call the imperial physician to take a look!"

"You back off!"

Fei Wan dismissed Yu Sujin and turned her attention to Liu Gengyi: "She's acting so crazy, isn't she a little crazy? We should quickly call an imperial physician to see her. Someone, find out which medical officer is on duty at the Imperial Hospital tonight, and ask him to come and treat Liu Gengyi. Tell him to bring medicine for bruises and injuries. Liu Gengyi's skin injuries can't be taken lightly. As a concubine, it would be terrible if she got scars and damaged her beauty."

Immediately, the palace maids who were willing to curry favor with him ran away.

"Who asked you to be so kind..."

Liu Gengyi yelled loudly, and the old nanny from the Palace Administration Office came over with her people and blocked her mouth.

The old nanny bowed and said, "Allow me to take Miss Liu back and teach her the proper manners."

Fei Wan sighed softly, "Forget it. She's like this, she probably doesn't want to learn. She's a concubine, can you still force her? Send her back to her own palace. When the imperial physician comes, it will be more convenient to treat her in her own palace."

After Chen Cairen brought the people from the Palace Administration Office, she didn't even have a chance to perform. She just watched Yu Sujin sing, recite, act and fight.

At this time, I quickly spoke up: "Empress Zhao, how can you be so kind? Even when Liu Gengyi is in such a mess, you still care about her. I don't know what to say."

"We are all sisters from the same palace. She was confused for a moment. As a high-ranking official, and under His Majesty's orders to assist in the management of the harem, how can I possibly argue with her?"

Fei Wan spoke earnestly, "Sister Chen, remember this: harmony is paramount among the concubines in the palace. We shoulder the responsibility of serving His Majesty and serve as role models for women across the country. We must always be self-disciplined, respectful of propriety, and careful in our words and actions."

"I will follow your Majesty's instructions!"

Chen Cairen bowed solemnly and accepted the instruction with a respectful look on her face.

Seven or eight concubines arrived one after another and all hurriedly followed suit, saying in unison: "Your Highness, I will follow your instructions!"

The eunuchs of the Ministry of Rites took the lead in praising Fei Wan's virtue.

The palace maids followed suit, bowed and praised together.

Fei Wan's face was serious as she said to the people from the Etiquette Department, "Don't be so busy trying to please me. I'll have to investigate this matter of Liu Gengyi later. Whether she was wronged in the Palace Administration Department, and whether you fulfilled your responsibilities, will be investigated in detail tomorrow after this palace and the other ladies have discussed it. Right now, Liu Gengyi's treatment cannot be delayed, so send her back to her own palace to rest."

Give the Palace Justice Department one night. To shirk responsibility, they'll definitely erase all traces of Liu Gengyi's torture and come up with a coherent story. If we investigate again tomorrow, we won't find anything.

Even if there were people who deliberately caused trouble, with the eunuch in charge of ceremonies in charge, there would not be any major chaos.

"Yes!"

The palace maids answered in unison.

Xiaohui and the people from Gongzhengsi took Liu Gengyi downstairs.

"Empress Zhao, I will take my leave."

Seeing that the matter was resolved, Huifei's maid Xifeng stepped forward and bowed.

"Please give my regards to Consort Hui. It's getting late, so I won't bother you. See you tomorrow at the Lincui Palace."

"Yes, I will pass on the message."

Xifeng was polite but had a cold attitude. He took the basin, towel and other things and left without any reluctance.

Fei Wan asked everyone else to leave.

Let Dongbao give each of the other palace servants who ran errands and helped tonight a piece of silver.

Dong Bao said to those people in a muffled but honest voice, "I didn't expect this to happen tonight. I don't have much money on me. Tomorrow you can come to Chunxi Palace to find me and make up for it."

Those people were very happy and thanked Fei Wan one after another.

Normally, everyone received rewards in copper coins, and only when they worked for high-ranking officials could they receive a little silver. Actually, the silver distributed today was more than enough, a generous reward. I didn't expect Concubine Zhao to be as generous as the rumors said. She even felt that this was not enough and wanted more?

"You are all tired, let's go."

Fei Wan watched those people happily leave with the silver, in groups of three or five, whispering to each other, and she knew that before tomorrow, the matter of Liu Gengyi tonight would spread to most of the harem.

I don't know who wants to ruin her reputation.

After this, I'm afraid her reputation will only get better.

"Eldest sister! What's wrong with you?"

Yu Sujin rushed over and anxiously supported Fei Wan, who was swaying slightly.
