Her movements were so light and graceful that it was impossible to find fault with them.
Concubine Hui narrowed her eyes and looked at Bai Susu carefully. Although she was dressed simply today, she had an outstanding figure, a slender waist that could be held in one hand, and the youthful sweetness of a girl.
It's an eyesore just to look at!
Bai Susu had already expected that Concubine Hui would not let her off easily, and sure enough, she bent over for a long time but did not make any sound.
This half-squatting movement was really uncomfortable, and Bai Susu's slender body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Concubine Hui, however, felt somewhat pleased by this. A faint smile rose on her face as she taunted him, "You're so good at pretending! Or are you really that weak?"
She picked up a piece of peeled walnut with her bare hands, put it into her mouth and chewed it carefully, looking at Bai Susu with a hint of amusement, full of the arrogance of a superior.
Bai Susu hated this class difference in her heart! She took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress the anger in her heart.
She gritted her teeth and said, "I dare not."
The words were so respectful, how could Concubine Dao Hui not hear her reluctance? She sneered in her heart, thinking that she was so capable, but it was just like this.
"Just now in Changchun Palace, you were very polite, but now when we meet alone, you only give half a bow, not a full one. I wonder where this rule comes from!"
The full etiquette means kneeling down.
Bai Susu clenched her hands hidden in her sleeves. She had no idea how many times she had knelt since entering the palace, but at this moment, she really didn't want to kneel to Concubine Hui.
Concubine Hui obviously wanted to punish Bai Susu for insubordination and ignorance of the rules, but Bai Susu knew that her idea was wrong from the beginning.
She thought she had done nothing wrong and Concubine Hui could not control her.
But in fact, as long as Huifei wanted, she could tease her at will.
In that case, why bother kneeling?
She stood up leisurely, her eyes calm, her voice neither humble nor arrogant, and said, "I don't know what Empress Hui wants to talk to me about. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave."
Concubine Hui was surprised by her audacity. She slapped the table with her right hand and shouted, "How dare you!"
"Where do you get the courage to speak to me like that! Su Yue, slap your face!"
Bai Susu turned around and left. Whoever wanted to endure this humiliation could do so. The worst that could happen was that they would not complete the mission. Let's all perish together.
System: "Master has a bad temper, what should I do?"
Su Yue heard Concubine Hui's order, but she was still hesitant. After all, Concubine Bai was in the emperor's favor, so how could she dare to slap her casually?
It didn't matter that she was still hesitating, but Nanny Sun was staring at Bai Susu. Seeing that she really wanted to leave, she was unwilling to do so and went straight over to stop Bai Susu.
Nanchun and Manxia naturally wanted to protect Bai Susu and leave. The scene was in chaos for a while. Bai Susu took the opportunity to close her eyes and fainted.
Everyone was startled. While Nanny Sun was stunned, Manxia knelt down and helped Bai Susu up, crying, "Madam, what's wrong with you? Wake up."
Nanchun was also very uneasy. She didn't know whether her master was telling the truth or not, but the only way to escape was to make her master faint.
After all, Concubine Hui looked like she would not stop until she punished her master. The master fainted, and she couldn't punish a fainted person!
When Concubine Hui saw Bai Susu fainted, she was furious and said, "Bring me some cold water to wake her up! I want to see if it's real or fake!"
"Enough!" Concubine Hui's chest was still heaving with anger. She looked up and saw a figure wearing a golden brocade robe with lotus branches. She saw that it was the queen.
In fact, the Queen already knew about it as early as when Concubine Hui announced her love to Susu.
Concubine An had also gone to the outside of Changchun Palace to kneel and beg because she was worried about Bai Susu.
The reason why it took so long to come was just the Queen's way of checking and balancing things.
Only if Bai Susu suffers some hardship and she appears again, will Bai Susu be grateful to her.
However, the queen lowered her eyes and looked at the current situation. Although Bai Susu had "fainted" and the palace maid was in tears, Bai Susu's little face was still white and tender, and she did not look like she had been injured.
He is indeed a cunning person.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Bai is disrespectful to me. Will Your Majesty still protect me?"
Concubine Hui did not bow, but instead questioned the queen with confidence.
The Queen looked at Concubine Hui's aggressive appearance coldly. Every time she thought about how she was forced to this point by such a person, she felt upset.
That’s all! Although Bai Susu’s cunning ways displeased her, she still disliked Concubine Hui even more!
"Disrespectful? If there's an order of hierarchy, then you're being respectful by yelling at me like this?"
Although the queen has been ill for a long time, her power over the years is not false.
After she said that, Concubine Hui really couldn't say anything else, and her face turned red and white.
The Queen glanced at Bai Susu who was still lying there, and said to Nanchun, "Find a sedan chair to carry your master back to the palace, and summon the imperial physician."
Concubine Hui was unwilling to give in. She watched Bai Susu leave with her eyes filled with poison. Seeing the queen's calm demeanor, she gritted her teeth and said, "The queen is indeed merciful."
The Queen smiled faintly, without even raising her eyebrows. She looked up at Concubine Hui's wonderful expression and said, "This is the demeanor that a Queen should have."

Zhaoyang Palace
There was a sound of jade breaking, and Concubine Hui had already thrown all the teacups and vases on the table to the ground. Her eyes were red, and she was obviously mad with anger.
