Volume 1 Chapter 190 Confronting Concubine Lin
Due to his status, Su Ran could only stay in Li Luo Valley for five days. Now that the time was up, he had no choice but to return to the palace.
After a few days of healing, I felt like an indestructible cockroach again and could return to that identity.
But I didn't expect that after I came back, there would be so many bad things happening.
Let’s not talk about anything else for now, let’s just talk about that troublesome Concubine Lin, who is provoking me more and more frequently.
After I came back, everyone had to come and pay their respects every morning as per custom.
Early this morning, I used the cosmetics that Su Ran had prepared for me. I thought I would feel better and then go for a walk in the Imperial Garden after they left.
But there are always a few blind people. I am here to provoke myself, or to bring bad luck upon myself. No, this morning the troublemaker started to make trouble again.
From the records of the days when I went to Li Luo Valley, I could see that the emperor stayed overnight at Concubine Lin's place, so when he came to pay his respects early this morning, she was not only late but also acted very proudly.
Not to mention the other people below, even I, who had such good manners, was instantly irritated.
But before I came, Su Muyan told me how to deal with such things.
I even spent two days watching "The Legend of Zhen Huan". After learning for so long, it's time to put it into practice.
Although I can't do anything to her all at once, as the queen, I still have the right to deal with Concubine Lin.
Anyway, when they are asked about it, they can just say it was a minor quarrel. Besides, I have been too nice to them before, so it is time to punish them.
Just when Concubine Lin was feeling complacent about how she had been favored by the emperor these days and that the empress was not in the palace these days, and she was assisting in the management of the six palaces, she was inevitably a little complacent and forgot her mentality.
Besides, she has always been spoiled, so she didn't even notice that the atmosphere today was a little different.
But although he did not catch the difference in the atmosphere, she could still see at a glance the exquisite makeup on Su Ran's face today.
Jealousy instantly crept into her heart. She had felt so proud of herself thanks to the favors she had received over the past two days, but when she thought about the fact that the position she had always wanted was occupied by Su Ran, she realized that Su Ran was the one who had been holding it.
It's like a thorn stuck in the flesh, which you can't pull out, but you can't ignore it either, so you feel extremely uncomfortable.
So, he began to ignore Su Ran even more. He was obviously the last one to arrive, but he didn't bow properly.
This kind of thing would have happened more than once in the past, but today was different.
From the moment Su Ran stepped into the palace yesterday, he had already decided to start eliminating certain people for his future plans.
Therefore, we naturally need to have a thundering approach. The previous behavior of turning a blind eye does not mean that it will still work now.
It’s just that some people are unaware that disaster is approaching and are still making provocations.
Concubine Lin: "I worked so hard serving the Emperor last night that I'm a little late today. I hope the Empress will forgive me."
Everyone thought to themselves: "See, wherever Concubine Lin and the Empress are together, there will always be a good show to watch."
"One of these two people has been sitting in that position for a long time, and is still as stable as a rock. Another person has been coveting that position for a long time, but is still out of reach."
So there’s something to watch on weekdays!
But everyone has long been accustomed to this kind of thing, because the queen usually avoids the spotlight.
Everyone originally thought it was the same as before, but unexpectedly there was a different highlight today.
The Queen: "Sister, what you said is true. Everyone has their time to serve the Emperor. Do you think everyone will follow your example? If so, how can there be order without rules?"
"Or, sister, are you more special than others because of your father's status?"
Concubine Lin had already decided to sit down lazily, but after suddenly hearing Su Ran's words, "disbelief flashed from her eyes."
Normally, I should have been asked to sit down by this time. Why does something seem so wrong today?
But it must be said that Concubine Lin was a bit arrogant and unreasonable because she relied on her family background, but her brain was indeed no match for those shrewd young ladies from aristocratic families.
Even now, she didn't notice anything wrong and still looked like that proud swan.
But at the same time, the other people sitting below had already started to have all kinds of drumbeats in their hearts, and they were conveying information through their eyebrows.
Their raised brows seemed to be asking each other, "What's wrong with you? The sun hasn't risen from the west, and there hasn't been any news from the previous dynasty. Why is the Empress so stubborn?"
Before everyone could come to their senses, Su Ran on the other side continued to bombard Concubine Lin: "Or is it that after your father became the general, he started to look down on everyone and no longer takes me, the queen, seriously?"
It's a joke. Even if you don't take it seriously in your heart, it's another matter to say it to someone's face. Who dares to admit it?
So everyone began to leave their safe chairs in fear and trepidation, and all knelt down.
What a joke. The little white rabbit in the comments suddenly became aggressive today. As the saying goes, a rabbit that bites doesn't bark. It looks like I have to be extra careful today.
However, everyone knew it clearly in their hearts. Judging from the situation today, there was an 80% chance that the anger was directed directly at Concubine Lin.
But it's a pity for my knees that I have to be implicated by her here.
But there was nothing the big guys could do, since they couldn't afford to offend either of them.
I can only kneel down quietly on the ground and serve as their tool.
Concubine Lin never expected that she would be troubled by Su Ran today even though she usually left safely.
Even though he hated it to death, he finally reacted now and could only kneel down respectfully and pay his respects.
Putting aside other things, he is still in the position he most desires. If he really wants to do something or give some punishment, he will inevitably be blamed.
So I don’t have the ability to compete with her, so I’ll just hold my anger and wait and see!
