Chapter 149: Fighting against injustice
Three days is neither long nor short, enough time for many things to happen, but fortunately, these two days have been calm and nothing unexpected has happened.
The day before leaving, the Queen... the Queen Mother asked Shu Wan to come to the palace to talk to her.
After Shu Wan entered the palace, the Queen Mother didn't say anything. She just chatted with her like friends for an hour.
After not seeing her for a few days, the empress dowager looked much more haggard, as if she had aged ten years overnight. Her eyes also became a little cloudy. Shu Wan saw that there was a hint of unwillingness, yet helplessness and desolation in her eyes.
Shu Wanguan was not good at comforting others. He just told her that things had come to this point and it could only be like this. If she couldn't let it go, she would be the only one who would be sad, and no one could take her place.
It was not known whether the Queen Mother heard it or not. She just said that Shu Wan was right. No one knew what she was thinking.
When Shu Wan left, he looked back at her and found that she was staring at the cup of tea in front of him in a daze. Shu Wan sighed and left without saying a word.
When she walked to the imperial garden, she suddenly saw two eunuchs beating and kicking a palace maid not far away.
The palace maid held her head and begged for mercy, but the two eunuchs turned a deaf ear to her and beat her with fists and kicks like raindrops.
"Stop!" Shu Wan walked over and shouted. She couldn't bear to watch such a little girl being bullied like this.
Hearing this, the two eunuchs stopped, turned around, and seeing that it was Shu Wan, they saluted her with smiles on their faces.
"Servants greet Princess Shuyin!" Although the fact that Shu Wan was not Fu Shuyin had already spread, they had not yet come to the sense of it and continued to address her as such.
The palace maid lying on the ground was trembling and covering her face, unwilling to show her face.
"What's going on?" Shu Wan looked at the palace maid and asked, "Two eunuchs, why are you so irritable when you are so bright and sunny? What did this little palace maid do wrong to make you two eunuchs so angry?" She hated this kind of bullying the weak the most. Now that she saw it, she had to do something about it.
"To answer your question, Princess, this little palace maid is not only lazy and does not do her work, but she is also not clean. She was caught stealing things from the noble master in the laundry department. We should teach her a lesson so that she will remember it. Otherwise, if she offends the noble master in the future, she will lose her life!" The little eunuch who was speaking made faces and it was obvious that he was not a good person. Shu Wan pretended not to see it.
"So, it turns out that the two eunuchs are still doing this for this little palace maid!" Shu Wan said with a mocking smile, "It turns out that I was meddling in other people's business!"
"Princess, you are embarrassing us!" The eunuch who had just spoken continued to flatter with a smile on his face, "Princess, you don't know, this slave girl shamelessly climbed onto your majesty's bed before, but your majesty was unwilling to favor her, so he demoted her to the laundry department. But this slave girl was still restless in the laundry department, and she was thinking of ways to seduce your majesty every day. You say that if you don't teach such a person a lesson, if you continue to let her go, who knows what kind of disaster she will cause!" What he said was not a lie, it was indeed the truth.
Shu Wan frowned slightly upon hearing this and looked at the little palace maid who was curled up in a ball.
