Chapter 89: The Fox Takes Advantage of the Tiger

After Jiang Lihai left, Su Meiren changed her previous impatience and became much calmer. She even called Yun Qin to her side to warn her.

"Although the Queen Mother has left the palace, the Empress is still here. Don't have any other thoughts."

Yun Qin lowered her eyes, "I dare not."

Su Meiren had never been able to see through her, and now she was too lazy to investigate further. She just said coldly: "Then tomorrow morning you will come with me to pay your respects to the Empress."

Knowing that she was trying to use the Queen to put pressure on him, it was also a way to give her a warning.

Yun Qin did not hide the sneer on her lips and whispered, "I obey your command."

The second day.

When Yun Qin followed Concubine Su to Fengyi Palace, there were not too many people in the palace.

She immediately saw the girl sitting in the middle position on the right, wearing a goose yellow dress and with delicate features.

With just one glance, Yun Qin confirmed that she was Shen Danying, because her facial features were very similar to those of General Shen in Yun Qin's impression.

Lady Su snorted softly as she walked past her, making Yunqin even more certain.

Shen Danying looked cute and sweet, but her expression was a little cold. She stood up and saluted Lady Su. When she glanced at Yun Qin, there was a bit of disdain in her eyes, and it was obvious that she did not have a good impression of her.

Yun Qin knew that Lady Su had made things difficult for her, so she was not surprised by her attitude towards her. After taking a look, she looked away.

However, Lady Su refused to let Shen Danying go.

"Who taught you these rules? They are not as good as the rules of the palace maids around me. They come from small families and are not worthy of being on the stage. I don't know how to serve the emperor."

Shen Danying blushed after hearing these words. She felt embarrassed and angry. She looked at Su Meiren with anger in her eyes, but she had encountered this situation many times and each time she ended up with nothing good. Now she had learned to endure it.

"That's what beauty taught me."

Lady Su snorted softly and glanced at Yun Qin from the side. "You come and show her how to do it."

Yun Qin raised her eyes and looked at the smugness in Lady Su's eyes, realizing that she was also using this as a way to humiliate her.

Her eyes turned colder and she couldn't help but tighten her chin, but she had to do as she was told.

Yun Qin took a step forward, bowed without much ceremony, and said to Shen Danying: "This servant greets Danying and pays respect to Danying."

After she finished her greeting, she returned to Su Meiren's side without looking at her expression.

Shen Daying was stunned for a moment, then he chuckled, "Today I have indeed witnessed the rules and regulations in Concubine Su's palace."

The contempt in these words made Su Meiren's expression twisted for a moment, but she quickly suppressed the anger in her heart. If she got angry at Yun Qin now, and exposed the discord between her and Yun Qin, it would be really embarrassing both inside and outside.

She glanced at Yun Qin with cold eyes, and then sneered at Shen Danying, "This is the most impolite person around me. Shen Danying can't be so incapable of doing this. Why don't you perform the etiquette again quickly!"

Shen Daying was so angry that her face turned red and she clenched her fists tightly. The great humiliation made her body tremble.

"As your elder sister, I am teaching you manners. If you don't appreciate it, forget it. Why are you staring at me like that?" Lady Su raised her chin slightly. "Why, do you want the maid beside me to show you again?"

Shen Danying clenched his teeth, his eyes turned red, and squeezed out two words from between his teeth: "No need!"

After saying that, she leaned down upright, and just as she was about to speak, a pair of soft hands suddenly reached out to support her. When she raised her eyes, she met a pair of clear and calm eyes, which made her pupils dilate slightly.

It was Yun Qin who supported Shen Danying, "The beauty is joking with Danying, please get up quickly."

Her voice was neither high nor low, and somewhat gentle, but she used strength in her hands to lift Shen Danying up.

Shen Daying was puzzled and surprised, and subconsciously glanced at Lady Su.

At this time, Lady Su's eyes were wide open, and her chest was heaving with anger. She didn't look like she was joking.

She looked at Yun Qin again, but found that she had lowered her eyes and stood next to Lady Su again, with her eyes lowered and a docile look on her face, as if she had not done such a bold action just now.

Now it was Lady Su who was trembling with anger. If it wasn't for this situation, she really wanted to slap Yun Qin. Even a slap wouldn't be enough to vent her anger!

Yun Qin's behavior just now was more embarrassing to her than a slap in the face!

But she couldn't do that now. She could only grit her teeth and hold back her anger. She had to pretend to be magnanimous. Chong Shen replied with a snort, "Remember this in the future. Don't think you can be carefree just because you are spoiled!"

Shen Danying curled his lips slightly and replied, "Yes." But he couldn't help but look at Yun Qin.

She was not a fool, so she could naturally see that Yun Qin's actions just now were to help her, which made her confused.

It's not like she hasn't heard of Yun Qin's name. There are many rumors about her in the palace. When people talk about her, they will definitely mention two words.

One is beauty, the other is loyalty.

Today she finally saw her beauty that even the emperor was dazzled.

But this loyalty...

Why on earth would she help herself?

Just when she was wondering, there was a voice saying "The Queen is here" suddenly.

Shen Danying put his doubts aside for the moment and rushed to pay his respects to the queen.

"Everyone stand up and sit down." The queen glanced at everyone and her eyes paused on Yun Qin for a moment.

Naturally, she had heard that Yun Qin had already bowed to the Queen Mother. Although she was surprised that she was so aware of current affairs, she also ignored her even more.

Because she knew the emperor's character very well, what he disliked most was this kind of "knowledge of current affairs". Once he knew that this palace maid had sided with the empress dowager, he would probably never look at her again.

The Queen's eyes fell on Shen Danying again. He was an inconspicuous person before, but now he is much more eye-catching. It turns out that the Emperor's favor is the best tonic for the women in the palace.

She sneered in her heart, but said in a warm tone: "What were you doing standing there just now?"

Before Lady Su could speak, Shen Daying said, "Your Majesty, Lady Su is teaching me the rules."

This is what happened, but when she said it in front of the empress, Su Meiren's behavior seemed overstepping her authority.

After all, the Empress is the ruler of the Imperial Palace. How can a beauty like her have the qualifications to teach concubines how to behave?

There was a buzz of discussion in the hall, and everyone looked towards Concubine Su, obviously waiting to see her laugh.

The Queen Mother left the palace immediately. Concubine Su was just planning to please the Queen, but when she heard this, her face changed immediately. She said to Shen, "I just saw that you were not doing the right thing and I was afraid that you might offend the Queen, so I gave you some advice. Why do you sound like you are very dissatisfied with me?"

"I'm not dissatisfied at all. I just told the truth when the Empress asked me. I don't know how I offended my sister to make her so angry." She looked innocent and timidly at the Empress.

Yun Qin lowered her eyes, with a secret smile on her lips. This Shen Danying looked petite but had strong fighting ability.
