Sudan Ruo didn't expect that this little girl looked so small but was so strong.
She smiled awkwardly at the other girls and asked everyone, "What happened here?"
The young maiden couldn't wait to answer: "I was learning etiquette well from Madam, but they were jealous of me and put bugs in my tea to make me look bad in front of Madam."
A beautiful lady in elegant attire on the opposite side said, "What evidence do you have to prove that we put it there? Maybe you didn't make the tea well and attracted the bugs!"
After saying this, he laughed contemptuously at the young concubine, and the other concubines also echoed the concubine who spoke.
The young concubine was so angry that she jumped up and down. Sudan knew what was going on at a glance. After seeing the bugs in the tea that the young concubine mentioned, she came up with an idea. She patted the young concubine's hand that was holding hers, and signaled her not to worry.
Then he said to everyone, "I have a way to find out who put this bug in there."
The leading lady opposite glared at Sudan Ruo with a warning look.
"I advise you not to meddle in other people's business, or you'll get into trouble!"
The girl next to her pulled her and whispered:
"She is the long-lost daughter that the Prime Minister just found. I heard her adoptive father was a wealthy businessman who has since passed away. Everyone says she has the best chance of being selected among this year's concubines. Let's not make her our enemy!"
The woman said disdainfully:
"So what if I'm the Prime Minister's daughter? I'm the only daughter of the General's family! My father has fought with His Majesty in many battles and has a say in his presence. Why should I be afraid of her? I want to see what she's capable of."
Upon hearing this, Sudanruo went to the flowers nearby and picked a handful of grass, wrapped the grass in a handkerchief, and then picked up a clean stone and smashed the grass on the table to squeeze out the juice. In just a few smashes, the handkerchief was soaked with the grass juice.
Sudan threw away the grass in his handkerchief and held the handkerchief to tell everyone that he had seen this kind of insect in the mountains.
Anyone who has touched this kind of insect and then gets the juice of the grass on their handkerchief on their hands will have a foul odor from the place where their hands touched the insect.
The General's daughter scoffed at this, "I thought it was some good idea! It turns out to be this kind of corny trick."
Upon hearing this, the young concubine took the handkerchief from Sudanruo's hand without any hesitation. Before everyone could react, she wiped everyone's hands, even the maids present.
Some people didn't even have time to hide.
If the Sultan was shocked by the execution ability of the young girl, and if this execution ability could be used by her in the future, how much effort would she save? She was determined to establish a good relationship with this young girl and let her work for her.
After a while, a strange smell emanated from the crowd, and gradually the smell became stronger and smellier.
Everyone began to move away from the source of the smell, and a maid was isolated by the crowd.
The maidservant wiped her hands vigorously with her handkerchief, but it was of no use. Seeing this, the maidservant looked at her master helplessly.
The young lady followed the maid's gaze and discovered that her master was the eldest daughter of the general's mansion who had always been targeting her.
The facts were already in front of her, but the young lady still refused to admit it. In order to cover up her crime, she pushed the maid into being a scapegoat.
The maid begged her to save her, but she simply blocked her mouth and had her sent to the House of Criminals.
Once a servant who did something wrong was sent to this place, there was almost no chance of him getting out again, and he could only stay there and be tortured for the rest of his life.
Sultan sighed in his heart at the cruelty of the ancient world. Fortunately, he was not a maid in someone's family, otherwise he might have ended up with such a miserable end.
After witnessing the cruelty of powerful people, Sudan reminded himself that he must be careful and cautious in the future and be mindful of everything to avoid being framed and causing his mission to fail.
The eldest daughter of the general's mansion bore a grudge against Su Danruo in her heart, and left in disgrace with a group of concubines.
Seeing that Su Danruo could actually humiliate the most spoiled and unreasonable woman among the concubines, the young concubine admired Su Danruo so much that she took the initiative to introduce herself to Su Danruo. It turned out that the young concubine was the daughter of the Minister of War, named Huo Yun.
The young lady from the general's mansion who made her look bad in front of the nanny was named Chu Song.
The Minister of War and the General had always been at odds with each other, so the children of the two families often fought against each other, which led to what happened today.
Huo Yun was usually well protected by his family and didn't understand the ways of the world. After entering the palace, he only knew to learn from the maids. He never cared about interpersonal relationship issues, and he would not try to please the maids like Su Danruo did.
This gave Chu Song the opportunity to form cliques and isolate Huo Yun.
If it weren't for Sudan Ruo's help today, Huo Yun would have suffered a loss.
Huo Yun immediately decided to become sworn sisters with Sudanruo and recognize her as her sister.
Sultan Ruo did not refuse. Huo Yun saw that Sultan Ruo had a cheerful and straightforward personality, so he liked her very much. It was good to have a companion in the palace.
In this way, Sudan Ruo gained a fan girl.
The day of the palace selection soon arrived, and Sultan Ruo was arranged to enter the palace in a middle position.
While waiting, I kept hearing a sharp and thin voice coming from the hall, announcing the fate of the beauties.
After a while, the voice from the hall kept repeating the same sentence:
"Put down the sign and give me flowers!"
Sultan Ruo realized that the emperor was most likely determined not to keep anyone this time. As time passed, no concubines were left behind, and Sultan Ruo became a little panicked.
She began to look for props in the system mall that could make the emperor notice her and keep her.
Sudan Ruo flipped through the items quickly. There were so many things in the system mall that he was dazzled.
The process went very quickly at the beginning, and soon it was Sultanruo's team's turn to enter the hall. However, Sultanruo had not found the right props yet, and she was becoming more and more anxious.
Huo Yun and Su Danruo were in the same team, and he was standing in front of Su Danruo.
Since the emperor had not responded, the empress dowager became restless.
The selection was already halfway through, and the emperor had almost sent all the beauties away. If this continued, the selection would be in vain.
When they arrived at Huo Yun, the Queen Mother saw that this girl was dignified and generous, had no ulterior motives, was cute, and had a figure that looked like it would be well-fed, so she spoke.
"This girl is lovely and has a good figure. I like her. It would be nice if the emperor could keep her to accompany me."
How could the emperor not understand the hidden meaning of his mother's words! He had rejected so many people before, and this beautiful girl seemed not to be offensive to him, so he followed the queen mother's words and kept Huo Yun.
There were two more people in front of him, and Sultanruo was suddenly inspired. He knew that the emperor was forced to hold a beauty contest by the empress dowager in order to continue the royal bloodline.
Then as long as he could make the Queen Mother and everyone else feel that there was a great possibility that he would give birth to an heir to the throne, he could basically stay safely.
It just so happened that Sudanruo found something good in the system mall that could help him a lot.
At this moment, the father-in-law next to him called out Sudan Ruo's name.
"The daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion——Sudan Ruo——"
