The main hall of Lin'an Palace is in turmoil again today.
Song Wanyi was determined to use Wei Shuyi as a scapegoat, but Wang Changzai held onto the willow branch tightly, saying, "Wanyi, don't be so arrogant in the palace! If you insist on saying we're wrong, explain it clearly! Especially Consort Min, what's wrong with her?!"
"You forgot? Fine, then I'll recall it for you! Consort Min herself is of low birth, without a father or mother, and without even a decent maternal family, yet she has repeatedly disparaged my maternal family behind my back! She's also mentioned more than once that my rank is not high enough to hold the position of head! You used to agree with her, but now you're pretending not to remember?!"
Wang Chang was silent for a while.
Wei Shuyi understood: At that time, with the instructions of the person behind the scenes, she wanted to make friends with Song Wanyi, and must have said a lot of bad things about him.
Now it has become evidence, I am speechless!
"Get out of the way!" Song Wanyi pushed the person in the way away and approached, waving a willow branch. "Everyone in the palace knows what's going on. The servants who were arrested were just scapegoats! Maybe it was you who bewitched the emperor! You've really caused me so much trouble! First, I was plagued by a long illness, and then I lost my favor. Now, what's wrong with me teaching you some rules?"
Wei Shuyi quickly knelt down, straightening her posture, trying not to add fuel to her anger. "Wan Yirong, you heard all those rumors about you from other people, not from me! Besides, I know my status is low, so I try to avoid mentioning my background when chatting. How could I bother myself by accusing you of something?"
"Pretend, keep pretending! You're especially good at this in front of the Emperor, right? Otherwise, why did the Emperor finally come that day and be seduced away by you? You bitch, you've clearly been sent to Eternal Lane, but the Emperor was sitting by the window, staring at Sang Yuxuan absentmindedly. You're a witch!"
Wei Shuyi was so shocked by these words that he didn't react and was slapped!
Wang Changzai immediately rushed over and blocked her body: "Are you crazy?! If the emperor summons Minxuan to sleep with him and finds that she is injured, can you bear the consequences if they investigate?"
"Your Majesty?" Song Wanyi didn't care. She pointed at the palace gate and shouted, "How deserted is Lin'an Palace? Your Majesty only cares about staying by the Imperial Concubine's side. How can he remember her? In ten days or half a month, the scars on her body will be gone, and Your Majesty won't even notice!"
After saying that, he started beating him without any care!
Wang Changzai protected Wei Shuyi and was hit several times without making a sound!
She wanted to push the stubborn woman away: "Don't do this, if you keep protecting her, she will only get more angry."
"Crazy woman! You don't even have the demeanor of a royal concubine!"
"What did you say?!" Song Wanyi heard the muttering and ordered her men to hold Wang Changzai on both sides. Her eyes were red with anxiety. "I have tolerated you for a long time! You rely on the fact that my grandmother is the nanny who serves the Queen Mother, and you really think you are some kind of princess? I want to see today! If I really hurt you, will the Queen Mother punish me on your behalf?"
Wei Shuyi glanced to her side: If it were a corner where no one was paying attention, the martial arts master Wang Changzai would definitely be able to break free and counterattack. However, this was in the main hall, with so many people watching, she could only pretend that she couldn't break free.
"Wanyi, if you have any complaints, please feel free to vent them to me. I am used to speaking without restraint in front of my sister. I don't have any complaints against you..."
"You two are such despicable bastards! You've hurt each other before, and now you're pretending to be sisters?" Song Wanyi ordered her servants, "Alright, then I'll grant you your wish! Fight together!"
In the past, Wei Shuyi had been tortured with sticks many times while working in the laundry department. It was simply because the manager was in a bad mood and took his anger out on the maids.
She also believed that she had long since shed the body of a noble official's daughter and could at least withstand a beating.
But today, the occasional heavy pain in her abdomen made her dare not take any risks.
"My Lady Wanyi, I am feeling unwell. Could you please show me mercy?"
"I thought I'd really met a pair of strong women! I didn't expect you to be so useless! They were mostly beating her up just now, and they didn't touch you, so why are you pretending to be weak?" Song Wanyi walked up to her and lifted her chin. "Then let me see what it means to be unwell."
Once. Two times. …
The willow branches fell on her randomly, and it only took a moment from the initial sting to the illusion of torn skin and flesh.
Wei Shuyi fell to the ground, her body tilted, her hands covering her abdomen as best she could. Wang Changzai, who was standing beside her, finally couldn't stand it anymore, and used some of her inner strength to push the eunuch away and help her up from the ground.
"Minmin! Are you okay?!"
"My stomach hurts."
"Minmin, you, you hold on! I'm going to take you away from this damn place right now!"
Song Wanyi screamed, "I wonder if you dare to take a step out of here!"
"What are you arguing about in broad daylight?"
The voice is soft and gentle, and the tone is gentle.
Accompanied by many palace maids, Concubine Jin actually stepped into the main hall, looking at Song Wanyi with a smile, waiting for a reply.
"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you! Yes, they are committing insubordination, and I am answering them according to the palace rules!"
"Palace rules? That's really strange... I didn't know that Wanyi, a fifth-rank official, could actually bypass the Empress and even the Empress Dowager and dare to torture a concubine!" Anger gradually grew in Noble Consort Jin's voice. "They both only punish people by making them copy scriptures and fining their salaries. They would never resort to such cruel means! Song Wanyi, what are you doing?"
"My concubine, I dare not! But they..."
"Oh! Madam, look, why is there so much blood?!"
Before Song Wanyi could finish her words, the maidservant beside Concubine Jin screamed in surprise and stood in front of her in panic, fearing that the blood would offend the noble lady.
Wang Chang raised his right hand belatedly, "Blood?! Minmin, you..."
The heavy pain that had troubled Wei Shuyi all day finally subsided a lot. Then, a warm current came from under his body, accompanied by the smell of blood, which was pungent and shocking.
She also reached out and took a look, her breathing quickened: "Quick, call the imperial physician!"
Imperial Concubine Jin immediately sent for the invitation, and then instructed the maidservant standing there in a daze, "The master is not feeling well, why don't you help him to the couch and rest?!"
Just then, Wen Yu rushed in in panic!
The first thing she saw was the blood on the ground. She looked up and glared at Song Wanyi fiercely, wishing she could make this person pay with blood!
"Who are you?"
"To answer the Imperial Concubine, I am a servant of Sang Yuxuan. Every time the young lady comes to pay her respects, she never lets us accompany her. Today, I waited and waited but she didn't come back, so I came to the main hall to look for her. I didn't expect to encounter such a thing!" With the help of Wang Changzai, Wen Yu struggled to carry Wei Shuyi on her back, tears in her eyes, "I will never forget the kindness of the Imperial Concubine! Saving people is the most important thing right now, so I will go first..."
"There are beds available in the main hall of Lin'an Palace. Why go to such a distant place?"
"This is the territory of a sinister person. I don't feel safe!" Wen Yu responded with hatred, quickening her pace as she walked out, shouting, "Jing'an! Quickly, get the cloak and cover the young lady! She can't stand the cold!"
Everyone dispersed, except Song Wanyi, who was so frightened staring at the pool of blood that she didn't pay attention for a moment and fell to the ground!
"Young Master!"
"No, don't come to help! Go and stand guard outside Sang Yuxuan! See what's going on with her! Go quickly!"
