Qi Lan didn't want to pay attention to her, but when Wan'er gestured to him, he took his leave.

After Qi Lan left, Yu Yan could no longer hold back her tears, which streamed down her face.

Seeing this, Wan'er sneered inwardly: You think you can come to me when you're being bullied? Too bad you've come to the wrong person. I can't possibly stand up for you.

But on her face, she asked with concern, "What happened to your face? Did someone bully you?"

Yu Yan didn't answer, she just kept crying, thinking that doing so would make Wan'er anxious.

But she remained silent, and Wan'er did not continue speaking, letting her cry.

Helpless, she could only stop sobbing and choked out, "Sister, the concubine of Chenxi Palace hit me. You must stand up for me." She was really not polite. There was no one else around, and she addressed her as a sister, seemingly trying to close the distance.

"What happened? Why did she hit you for no reason?" Wan'er asked, her brows furrowed, her eyes filled with feigned concern.

Yu Yan naturally dared not tell the truth, and could only say that she had accidentally bumped into Agge and was thus humiliated.

She sounded very aggrieved, convinced that the brainless Wan'er would rush over to defend her if she heard this.

The ideal was beautiful, but the reality was harsh. Wan'er did not rush over immediately, but instead raised a question, "The concubine is polite and should not be so domineering and unreasonable as to beat a palace maid over such a small matter, let alone you who are my people."

"She was faking it. After all, Your Highness, you are a virtuous consort, she wouldn't dare to act recklessly." Yu Yan lied without batting an eye, her eyes darting around, and then she tugged at Wan'er's sleeve, "Don't you believe me, sister?"

"How could that be?" Wan'er smiled. "Don't worry, I will definitely get justice for you."

"Thank you, sister." Yu Yan was moved to tears, but a sinister glint flashed in her eyes. Hmph, she would make Ag pay the price.

Despite saying that, Wan'er still didn't move forward, but instead paced back and forth in the hall as if deep in thought, leaving Yu Yan completely confused and anxiously twirling her handkerchief.

Wan'er smiled knowingly when she saw Yu Yan acting like a clown.
