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

Yu Su was pestered by Yu Tingjin, and although she knew it was inappropriate, she still couldn't bear to see her daughter crying.

Finally agreed.

The house was guarded by people from the Yu Mansion and Fei Wan's men.

Yu Su finally found an opportunity at three o'clock in the morning. She avoided Fei Wan's men and bribed the guards of the Yu Mansion with a heavy gold hairpin, in exchange for them delivering a message to Yu Yongnan, the second son of the Yu Mansion.

There was no movement the whole next day. Yu Su thought her money was wasted and secretly cursed the guard for being a good-for-nothing.

Unexpectedly, in the early morning of the third day, when it was darkest before dawn, there was a gentle knock on the door.

"It's my second brother! It must be him. He won't abandon me!"

Yu Tingjin was sleeping, but suddenly he sat up straight in bed.

Yu Su was terrified and went to open the door with a pair of scissors.

With a thud, the door had just opened a crack when a skinny man rushed in.

Yu Su was so frightened that she almost stabbed the other person with the scissors.

Yu Tingjin jumped from the bed and threw himself into his arms.

Yu Su looked carefully and found that the other person seemed to be the second young master.

He quickly let the person into the house and closed the door.

"Second brother, your leg...isn't it healed yet?" Yu Tingjin found that Yu Yongnan was using crutches and had difficulty moving.

"It's broken. Even if it grows back, you'll still be a cripple in the future." Yu Yongnan's voice was hoarse.

"Brother, this is all thanks to that bitch. If it weren't for her, how could Dad and Big Brother have the heart to beat and kill us! Second brother, she's now the Imperial Consort. What should we do..."

Yu Tingjin hugged Yu Yongnan and sobbed.

It entangled with my brother like a vine.

Yu Sushi couldn't pull it away even if she wanted to.

Yu Yongnan advised Yu Su: "Aunt, Jin'er is too excited. Please go out first. I will persuade her privately."

"Mom, get out! Wait until I finish talking to my second brother, and I'll do whatever you say!"

Yu Tingjin's voice was quite loud, and Yu Sushi couldn't suppress her. She was afraid that she would shout and alarm others, so she had to leave first.

Fortunately, Yu Yongnan calmly reassured her: "I will definitely persuade Jin'er."

As a result, what Yu Su didn't know was that after she left, the brother and sister started cursing Fei Wan together in the room.

He also cursed Yu Wangbei and even Yu Zhong.

Even Madam Yu.

Yu Tingjin hugged her brother tightly: "Brother, I'm trapped here, there's no other way. Can you deal with that bitch? I still have money in the bank. I'll tell you how to withdraw it. Second brother, this is all my family fortune. You must deal with her! Only when she falls can we have a chance to rise again!"

Yu Yongnan said: "Don't worry, even if we don't succeed, we will kill her and avenge our past grudge."

The two hugged each other, sharing the same hatred for the enemy.

When the day broke, Yu Yongnan didn't find a chance to escape from the guards, so he simply stayed here for the whole day, and only slipped away quietly at night.

They think they can do it without anyone noticing.

But Fei Wan's subordinate Lan'er, who was arranged outside the palace to keep watch here, was extremely responsible and alert.

When Yu Su first sent the letter, she was under their surveillance.

Soon, the news reached Fei Wan.

Fei Wan frowned.

"I didn't expect that they still have such evil intentions."

Then, let's use this opportunity to test Yu Zhong's loyalty.

Let’s see if Lord Yu is worthy of the word “loyalty”.

……

"Pan'er pays homage to the Imperial Noble Consort. May Her Majesty live a thousand years."

The skinny palace maid was kneeling on the ground, her loose clothes making her look even more bony.

Fei Wan asked her to stand up and said softly, "It's been a long time since we last met. I didn't expect you to be so thin."

He ordered people to give her some food and let her eat in the side hall.

Pan'er looked up. Because he was so thin, his eyes seemed much larger than usual. They were large, dark, and gloomy, like a pool of water that could swallow a person.

"Your Highness, I am grateful to you for remembering me. I shamelessly ask you to stay in Chunxi Palace. I work all day in the Xinzheku, and my health is poor. If I continue, I'm afraid I won't make it to the spring."

She refused to stand up and kowtowed deeply to Fei Wan.

He choked up and explained that it was inappropriate for him to make a request under the pretext of congratulating someone on his promotion.

"...But this servant of yours truly cannot bear it any longer. Please, Madam, have mercy on me. I will work like a slave and do whatever it takes!"

"How pitiful! Back then, you were a maidservant beside Concubine Chun, and you were considered somewhat prestigious. I never expected you to end up like this. Well, I hate to see people suffer, so I'll save you this time."

Fei Wan agreed readily.

He just said that the number of people around him was full, and he could add people according to their ranks only after the imperial concubine's enthronement ceremony. It would be inappropriate to add more people at this time, as it would make people think he was arrogant.

"Which palace do you want to serve in? I will do my best to arrange it for you."

Pan'er said he is not picky.

As long as I can leave Xinzheku, I can even go to Yanyun Palace.

Fei Wan thought for a moment and said, "If you don't insist on serving a high-ranking master, why not stay in Chunxi Palace? There are several young ladies living here, why don't you go and help them out?"

Pan'er cried with joy and kowtowed repeatedly.

The next day, Fei Wan summoned several concubines who lived with her in Chunxi Palace and presented them with the cleaned plates.

"The person introduced by the Empress is naturally excellent, but my rank is too low. It would be an usurpation to have too many people around me, so I feel embarrassed to ask her for it." said a concubine.

"There is a vacancy by my side, but I have not been favored for many years. If this girl follows me, I am afraid she will be buried." said another.

Finally, a concubine named Xin said that although her entourage was full, she was willing to add one more person to serve her, as long as Fei Wan could help her with the records of adding more people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"This girl looks pitiful. I am doing a good deed by taking her in. I will definitely treat her well."

Fei Wan nodded: "Then arrange for her to stay in Xinxuan's maid's room."

These concubines were the ones Fei Wan had chosen when He Shuangying insisted on moving back to Chunxi Palace.

These days they have been very well-behaved and willing to flatter, living quietly in Chunxi Palace without being an eyesore.

So Pan'er formally went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to change her registration the next day, and entered Chunxi Palace as a servant, following Xin Xuanshi.

Xin Xuanshi was not outstanding in appearance, with slightly high cheekbones and a slightly square chin. She usually wore thick bangs and would be hard to find in a crowd of people.

Just two days after closing the business, she changed her style.

The bangs were combed up, revealing a broad and smooth forehead, high eyebrows, and upturned eyes. The wide-sleeved robe was replaced with a small jacket and long skirt that fit the curves, and the belt was tied wide.

At first glance, it looks very neat and quite heroic.

"Xin Xuanshi is so beautiful!"

When people went to pay their respects to Queen Yan in the morning, many were surprised.

Xin Xuanshi blushed, but accepted the compliment graciously.

She explained, "The Imperial Noble Consort has recently assigned me a maid. This maid is very good at dressing up. If any sister would like to try, just come and find her."

So within a few days, seven or eight concubines were dressed up by Pan'er and looked brand new, which was a delight to the eyes.

Empress Yan smiled and said, "I didn't expect that the sisters I'm used to seeing would suddenly change their demeanor. It just so happens that the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Observatory have scheduled the 18th day of the twelfth lunar month for the Imperial Noble Consort's canonization ceremony. By then, everyone should dress up beautifully and join in the fun with the Imperial Noble Consort."

So the Queen gave the order, and more people came to Chunxi Palace to look for Pan'er.

The concubines joked and called Pan'er "the master makeup artist."
