Chapter 114 Su Ying asks for help
Although Xu Lanshan was the "winner", her mood was even worse. If it weren't for Yuchan, Yujuan, Xiaofuzi and others persuading her, she wouldn't even want to have dinner.
The food sent from the imperial kitchen was obviously not very good, but it was not terrible either. It should be a little above the grid line of Zhaoyi's rank.
Before that, she had intentionally or unintentionally surpassed the position of Zhaoyi.
Although these upper and lower limits are both within a reasonable range, the difference is still obvious.
Xu Lanshan thought to herself that perhaps this was because the scumbag emperor had given a verbal order to the imperial kitchen. Otherwise, the food would have been terrible.
Xu Lanshan found it easy to understand. The imperial kitchen also had its own difficulties. There was also the oral order from the scumbag emperor. If no one interfered, they would definitely not do this.
As for who was involved, Xu Lanshan naturally knew without even having to think about it.
Who else could it be besides Concubine Lian? She’s the most proactive!
It is enough for the imperial kitchen to achieve this.
The autumn colors were already deep, and the sky darkened early. Not long after dinner, it was already dark outside. Xu Lanshan was about to send everyone to bed and go to sleep herself when suddenly someone outside banged on the palace gate.
The loud and chaotic sounds could be heard clearly even across the skylight.
Xu Lanshan frowned slightly and was about to ask when she saw Xiao Fuzi running in hurriedly from outside to report: "Madam, it's Su Ying, the Su Ying who used to serve Song. She was sent to the laundry department a long time ago, and I don't know how she ended up here..."
"It's her!" Xu Lanshan was very surprised: "What is she doing here?"
Xiao Fuzi felt relieved when she thought of Su Ying's miserable appearance, crying so hard. When her master was just a concubine, she followed Concubine Song around and often found fault with her, even wanting to teach her a lesson. She was very arrogant. But now she was in a miserable situation where everyone could step on her.
It shows that God has eyes and retribution is inevitable!
"She was kneeling outside, crying, kowtowed repeatedly, begging for mercy, asking the master to help her, and saying a lot of complaints. I couldn't hear it clearly, but I just heard that she was having a hard time in the laundry department and wanted to ask the master to take her in..."
Xu Lanshan laughed out loud, as if she had heard some ridiculous joke. "She came to ask me to take her in? Why would she even think of asking me to take her in?"
Could it be that she had completely forgotten how she had treated me in the past? Even if she had, why did she think she should forget too? If she hadn't forgotten, how could she possibly have kept her?
Xu Lanshan doesn't have the heart to repay evil with kindness!
Besides, it's a poisonous snake.
The nature is extremely bad.
Don't look at how pitiful and miserable she looks now. Once she recovers, the first person she will bite will definitely be herself.
Xu Lanshan didn't want to see her originally, but Xiao Fuzi and the others couldn't drive her away. She seemed to have taken root at the gate of Lianyi Palace, kneeling there crying and refusing to leave.
It’s not good to be seen by others. Xu Lanshan cursed in her heart and had to go out.
Su Ying, who was crying her eyes out, saw Xu Lanshan coming and was about to kneel down to approach her. Yu Chan scolded her, "You are so rude! Don't move! Look at you, who allowed you to get close to Zhaoyi?"
"Zhaoyi?" Su Ying was a little surprised, obviously not knowing that Xu Lanshan was now in such a high position. "Yes, yes, this servant dares not offend Her Majesty the Zhaoyi! Her Majesty the Zhaoyi, please forgive me! Please keep me and serve me. From now on, I will be loyal to you! I am willing to give my life to Her Majesty the Zhaoyi! Please, Her Majesty the Zhaoyi! Please, Her Majesty the Zhaoyi!"
As she spoke, she cried sadly and kowtowed repeatedly.
When Xu Lanshan saw Su Ying for the first time, she almost didn't recognize her.
The fierce-eyed, menacing maid had once been so flamboyant, her clothes immaculately adorned. Now, she wore a coarse indigo dress that was clearly ill-fitting, filthy, and torn in places. Her hair was tangled like a bird's nest, unadorned and unattractive. Her cheekbones were visible, her eyes sunken, and her complexion was bleak. A scar, left by some unknown cause, adorned her left cheek.
If she hadn't spoken and introduced herself, Xu Lanshan wouldn't have dared to believe that she was Su Ying.
It can be seen that in this palace, one thought can lead to heaven, and the next to hell, there is no logic at all. Sometimes, this is just a matter of one moment before and the next.
"You're a maid from the laundry department. I don't need anyone here. Even if I do, I'll recruit from the Shanggong Department. Now go. Seeing how miserable you're already, I won't bother with you for causing trouble at the palace gate. If you're so ignorant and try to push your luck, I'll have no choice but to send for the maids in charge of the Shanggong Department."
Xiao Fuzi was disgusted by driving her away: "Did you hear what the queen said? Go away, go away quickly!"
"Empress Zhaoyi, I know I have wronged you in the past, but I have truly changed now! Please forgive me!"
"I forgive you, let's go!"
"Then you—"
"Su Ying, do you think you and I have any friendship in the past? Do you think that based on what you did to me in the past, I would be able to keep you here today? This is a huge joke!"
Seeing her eyes shining and her about to make an even more outrageous request, Xu Lanshan was so angry that she laughed.
When Su Ying thought of the things that happened in the past, she froze and was speechless, but she couldn't help feeling angry, hateful and jealous.
It was all Xu Lanshan's fault that she was in this state. She had begged her so humbly, so why was she still so cold and heartless? She still refused to forgive herself!
This bitch, having climbed to a position by stepping on her master, had actually reached a height that even her master couldn't reach. If she could do it, why couldn't I? All I lacked was opportunity.
"Empress Zhaoyi!"
"Xiao Fuzi, go to the Shang Palace Bureau!"
Since she doesn't understand what we're saying, there's no need to talk to her any more.
"Yes, Master!"
Xiao Fuzi had long been annoyed with Suying's behavior and wanted to leave immediately.
Su Ying's face changed drastically, a flash of hatred flashed across her eyes, and she hurriedly got up from the ground: "No, I dare not trouble the Empress Zhaoyi, I will leave now, I will leave now..."
She ran away in a hurry.
But she wouldn't let it go like that. If Xu Lanshan refused to take her in, then don't blame her for being rude. What if she could help others fight Xu Lanshan? There would always be someone willing to take her in, right? After all, Xu Lanshan was so hated!
Seeing Su Ying running away like a drowned dog, Xu Lanshan breathed a sigh of relief, "Go back and close the door."
"Yes, my lady."
