Chapter 32 I'll raid your palace first
"Thank you." Su Wanyan smiled faintly and led Xiao Wu to follow behind the little palace maid, looking around all the way. When she saw something new and interesting, she would pull the little palace maid to stop and ask a few questions, asking the little palace maid so many questions that she almost couldn't hold back.
"Princess Xiao, the Queen is waiting for you. Please leave with me quickly."
Su Wanyan smiled sheepishly, "Oh, okay, okay. I'm really sorry. This is my first time in the palace, so everything seems new to me."
The little palace maid was a third-class palace maid serving the Queen. She was of little influence and had no say around the Queen. Today she was sent to lead the way for Princess Xiao because the Queen wanted to embarrass Princess Xiao. After all, a third-class palace maid coming to invite Princess Xiao was in any way beneath her status as Princess Xiao.
But Princess Xiao's attention was not on this at all. Instead, she was very interested in the paths leading to the palaces and the imperial gardens. She looked like she had never seen the world before.
Su Wanyan had been walking with the little palace maid for almost half an hour, but they still hadn't reached the Queen's bedroom. She couldn't help but sigh. It was such a long way. No wonder the women living in this harem didn't like to go out for exercise. If they went out for a while, their legs would become as weak as bamboo poles.
However, it did make it convenient for her to memorize the terrain of the palace in her mind. She knew at a glance that the dog emperor had no intention of letting Ji Xiaohan go, and was even thinking about flattering Ji Xiaohan. Since the confiscation of property and exile were inevitable and she was not allowed to enjoy life, she would not let the dog emperor have an easy time.
You dog emperor, just wait for me to come and raid your palace tonight.
Finally, she arrived at the Queen's bedroom. As soon as she entered, she found a group of beauties in all colors sitting inside, all looking at her with expressions of anticipation. Well! Three women can make a whole drama, and there are more than a dozen beauties sitting here!
"Greetings to Her Majesty, may Her Majesty be well." Su Wanyan came from the modern era and had been living in various secluded environments for many years. She was used to being alone and felt helpless about kneeling and bowing to everyone she met.
But she had to bow her head under the eaves. Su Wanyan bowed to the queen as a gesture of respect. Kneeling down was out of the question for her because she saw that even the dog emperor didn't kneel down.
Who gave her man the privilege?
"Everyone says that Princess Xiao is a great beauty. After seeing her today, I can see that her reputation is well-deserved." Without waiting for the Queen to call out, the woman sitting first at the bottom couldn't wait to speak.
Su Wanyan, having read the original novel, knew that the person who had interrupted was Consort De, one of the four concubines in the harem. She was the mother of the Second Prince and was rumored to have always been at odds with the Empress. However, it now seemed that the rumors were unreliable. At least when they were united in facing external affairs, their tacit cooperation was quite good.
Su Wanyan is not the kind of person who would be weak and suffer losses. If you don’t ask me to get up, I will get up by myself after paying my respects. She smiled and said, "Thank you, Empress Defei. You are also very beautiful."
This completely modern tone of voice left Concubine De bewildered. She had never heard that Princess Xiao was very courageous! How come she wasn't intimidated by the scene they had put on?
Seeing that Concubine De had failed in her first battle, the Queen smiled and said, "Okay, Princess Xiao, stop standing and sit down quickly."
In the queen's bedroom, seats are arranged according to status. Su Wanyan is just the wife of a prince, so when she comes to the harem, she has no place.
Su Wanyan looked at the small stool at the end and refused directly, "Your Majesty, I am only here to pay my respects to you. I must leave after paying my respects. After all, the prince in the palace is still waiting for me to return and take care of him!"
