Quick Wear: I Fulfill the Wish of Cannon Fodder
Chapter 21 The Little Palace Maid Cannon Fodder Counterattack 3
Su Lan had just finished a simple breakfast with the little palace maid who shared the same room.
When the manager of the flower room was about to send several young palace maids to accompany the queen to deliver flowers, Su Lan noticed that Manager Liu seemed to be deliberately ignoring her, so she hurriedly raised her hand to signal.
She knew in her heart that sending flowers to the Queen was a must. After all, the position of Imperial Preceptor required a recommendation, and the Queen was an excellent choice.
Although the Queen was a pitiful woman, having died young and losing her son, it was precisely because the original owner bore some resemblance to Ruyi that the Queen had made things difficult for her. Now, Su Lan had decided to change her strategy and, instead of confronting the Queen head-on, seek opportunities for cooperation. This way, both parties would benefit.
Manager Liu couldn't pretend not to see it, so he also asked Su Lan to go with him.
Su Lan carefully carried a pot of yellow peonies and followed Xiao Tao, her eyes darting around. The palace was vast, and even with Tuanzi, her "living map," guiding her, she still felt disoriented, as if she were in a maze. She could only follow Xiao Tao and the others, who were leading the way, step by step, fearing she would get lost.
Just then, Xiao Tao and the others ahead suddenly stopped. Su Lan looked up curiously and saw a gorgeous sedan chair not far ahead. Sitting in it was the woman with a noble, slightly old-fashioned air. She was dressed in a gorgeous palace dress, her makeup exquisite, and her demeanor dignified. Clearly no ordinary person.
From the original owner's memory, Su Lan recognized this woman - the heroine Ruyi, and finally faced the legendary heroine.
Everyone bowed, "Greetings to Her Majesty the Concubine Xian."
Ruyi also seemed to notice Su Lan. She stopped the sedan chair and walked to Su Lan's side in a domineering manner.
"Raise your head," the hoarse voice made Su Lan feel uncomfortable. The original owner still had some emotions in his body.
Su Lan raised her head, "Empress Xian is well."
"She is actually quite pretty, but she should be too active in her thoughts and not desire the wrong person." Ruyi's words were meant for both the emperor and Ling Yunche.
After all, in her opinion, Wei Wan was not worthy of either Ling Yunche or the emperor, no matter in appearance or background.
After saying that, Ruyi wanted to touch Su Lan's face with her nailed hand, wanting to scratch her face. However, just when her hand was about to touch Su Lan's face, a voice came from a distance.
"Is Concubine Xian trying to establish her authority in front of the Empress?"
Hearing this, Ruyi quickly withdrew her hand and turned to look in the direction of the voice. She saw Concubine Jia, supported by a palace maid, walking slowly towards her. She had a faint smile on her face, and her every frown and smile revealed her elegance.
Seeing Concubine Jia coming, Ruyi could only glare at Su Lan, then turned to Concubine Jia and said, "Concubine Jia, you are joking. I am just reminding the maid to prevent those vixens from climbing onto the dragon bed again."
As soon as this hat was put on, Su Lan cursed Ruyi in her heart. However, Concubine Jia looked at Su Lan with a smile, seeming to be very interested in her.
She actually looks a bit like Ruyi, no wonder she makes things difficult for me, but the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Su Lan listened to Concubine Jia's inner thoughts, and the heroine's bold actions made Concubine Jia change her opinion of herself.
If Concubine Jia didn't respond, she wouldn't bother with him and walked back.
The sedan chair was lying tilted.
Seeing that his master was seated, Si Xin said, "Go back to the palace."
Only after Concubine Jia entered the Queen's Kunning Palace did the palace maids who were delivering flowers begin to act.
When Su Lan came in with the flowers, the Queen was chatting and laughing with Concubine Jia.
"Sister, look, it's this palace maid."
The Queen looked at Su Lan who was arranging the flowers and said, "Step forward and reply."
Su Lan came over and saluted the two ladies, "Greetings to the Empress and Concubine Jia."
The queen got down from the mat, looked at Su Lan's face carefully, and was about to get angry.
Su Lan knelt down and started crying, "Your Majesty, I have been wronged," she said, glancing at the maids around her.
The queen also became interested in this little palace maid, and dismissed her attendants, leaving only Concubine Jia.
Su Lan finally spoke, "Your Majesty, I have a childhood sweetheart who used to be on duty in the cold palace. He helped Concubine Xian a few times. After Concubine Xian was restored to the throne, she recommended him to the emperor to be a guard in front of the emperor."
The Queen and Concubine Jia were listening with serious faces, as this matter could be a big deal or a small one.
"I have also heard about this matter. Concubine Xian is currently in great favor with the Emperor. To be frank, the Emperor does not believe that she would have any dirty dealings with the guards."
The queen gently picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
"Let me continue," Su Lan straightened her body, making the two ladies feel that the person kneeling in front of them was not a palace maid but a princess.
"I spent money to be served by the prince, and was praised by the emperor who came to inspect the eldest prince's studies. Then, Concubine Hai spread rumors that I was trying to seduce the emperor."
"The Concubine Chun sent me to the Flower Room, and Aunt Si Xin, who was next to the Concubine Xian, also paid the people in the Flower Room to bully me."
Concubine Jia understood and smiled, "So you want to seek the protection of the Queen and me."
Su Lan raised her head, revealing an ambitious look in her eyes. "My ladies only know that I am a palace maid. In fact, I have been a disciple before, but I can read people's minds and predict their fate."
"Oh, you're quite interesting. With such talent, you're willing to be a palace maid?"
The queen rarely smiled.
"I hope the Queen will allow this servant to address me and demonstrate my abilities for the two ladies."
Su Lan was really not used to being called a slave all the time.
"Yes," the queen's pleasant voice revealed her joy.
Su Lan looked up at the Queen's eyes, then at Concubine Jia's.
In the plot, the queen was originally non-competitive, but Concubine Jia and Susu kept doing bad things in the name of the queen.
She wanted to cooperate with the Queen, but she didn't want to cooperate with Concubine Jia who bullied the original owner. The first step was to sow discord, which was not appropriate at the moment.
"Empress, you must take care of your health so that you can continue to give birth to a prince and protect the princess."
Since her son died young, the queen was unwilling to face the emperor.
"Can you tell me what I'm thinking right now?"
The queen just thought she was teasing the little palace maid, and after all, she felt a little comforted by her words.
"Legitimate son," Su Lan said these two words lightly.
"Yes, what is your name? Please stay in Kunning Palace for now."
"Thank you, Empress, your name is Wei Wan"
Concubine Jia thought that the Queen just wanted a palace maid to amuse herself, and did not take it seriously, let alone believe that she could read minds and tell fortunes.
When Concubine Jia took her leave, Su Lan was also preparing to go back to pack her things. As soon as she left the palace, Concubine Jia gave Su Lan a warning look.
"This harem is terrifying. The eyes of these women are murderous."
Tuanzi muttered while holding the small TV.
Su Lan waved her hand. This small world was adapted from a novel and was somewhat inconsistent with historical facts.
The harem is not too big, but it is also small enough so that each palace needs to have its own people.
Ruyi also knew that Wei Wan had caught the Queen's eye, so she moved her to another place to serve.
"This slave girl is really good at trying to please others," Hai Lan said sarcastically.
"I saw her outside the Queen's Palace today. She was able to win the Queen's favor by sending a peony. She must be quite capable."
Hailan walked to Ruyi and peeled grapes for her. Ruyi used her armored hands to grab the grapes and put them into her mouth.
"Does that servant think she has a better chance of seeing the Emperor in the Queen's Palace?" Hai Lan sneered, "Then she probably bet on the wrong horse. Now my sister is the Emperor's love."
Ruyi laughed after hearing this, "It's just hard for Ling Yunche to give his love to the wrong person."
"Si Xin, find some time to tell him that Wei Wan is now the Queen's personal maid."
Si Xin nodded in agreement and then went out.
