The concubine escaped and cried when she met the prince again

After hearing what Qin Zhen said, Prime Minister Lan's sworn enemies all said to him with disdain, "Yes, Prime Minister Lan is an official appointed by the court, but he is so cruel to his own flesh and blood, let alone to outsiders and foreign affairs."

The emperor also looked at Prime Minister Lan meaningfully. Just as the minister had just said, as an official appointed by the court, he was not good to his own flesh and blood, so how could he be loyal to the affairs of the court?

After hearing what his mortal enemy said, Prime Minister Lan glanced at the emperor and saw that he was looking at him with a scrutinizing gaze. He quickly knelt down and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, I am wronged. I have devoted myself to the court, and the affairs of the harem are all taken care of by my wife. I really didn't know that my daughter had suffered so much injustice."

After he finished speaking, he said to Shen Ruolan with a guilty look on his face: "Xi'er, I'm sorry. It's all your fault. I made you suffer so much. I promise you now that in the future, you will get everything your elder sister has."

After Shen Ruolan heard what Prime Minister Lan said, she came to his side, knelt down, kowtowed to him three times, looked up at him with tears in her eyes and said, "Father, will you really treat me well?"

Although Prime Minister Lan was a little confused by his daughter's kowtow, after listening to her words, he thought she had taken his words to heart, so he nodded and said to her, "Yes, from now on, you will have everything your sister has."

"Then will you agree to the conditions I just proposed?" Shen Ruolan continued.

Prime Minister Lan just wanted to calm her down, so he agreed without thinking: "Yes."

Shen Ruolan got the answer she wanted, and she said to Prime Minister Lan gratefully, "Thank you, father, for your help."

After she finished speaking, she glanced at the people present, kowtowed to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, today I want everyone to bear witness for me. I want to sever my father-daughter relationship with Prime Minister Lan."

After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she saw that the emperor's face was not looking good, so she continued: "Your Majesty, I know that doing this is extremely rebellious, but I really don't want to lose my relatives again..."

Shen Ruolan was already sobbing when she said this. She was shrouded in deep sadness. She lay on the ground and continued to tell the emperor: "Your Majesty, I have lived a precarious life in the Prime Minister's Mansion since I was a child. Although there is always endless work to do, and endless beatings and scolding, I have no complaints. However, they actually kicked my mother to miscarry, causing my mother to die in the womb. Just a month ago, I was called back to the mansion by Prime Minister Lan, and was kicked and beaten by my eldest sister again, causing my child who had not yet grown up to miscarry. I am afraid to have such a family!"

After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she looked up at the emperor and said with a determined face: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Lan has already agreed to my request. I beg you to bear witness to my request. Even if you have to sentence me to death, I will sever all ties with Prime Minister Lan's family!"

Shen Ruolan's words caused a huge uproar, and everyone present, including the emperor and Jiang Dichen, looked at her in shock. Their bodies and hair were given by their parents, and as children, they should not only take good care of themselves, but also be filial to their parents. Now Shen Ruolan wants to break off the relationship, which is undoubtedly a heinous crime.

But when everyone thought about her experience, they couldn't help but feel sympathy for her. Her mother's fetus died in her womb, and she was kicked and beaten again, causing a miscarriage. This would not be a pleasant experience for anyone.

Prime Minister Lan was so angry at Shen Ruolan's words that he couldn't recover for a long time. He never dreamed that this seemingly timid and cowardly daughter would dare to expose his shame in public. He was so angry that he found his voice after a long time. He pointed at Shen Ruolan and shouted: "Evil creature, what nonsense are you talking about here?"

Shen Ruolan said to him with a mocking look on her face: "Whether I am talking nonsense or not, let the emperor send someone to check and you will know. Although today is the New Year, it has nothing to do with the concubines of the Prime Minister's Mansion. If they are not busy until midnight every day, they will have no food to eat the next day."

Prime Minister Lan is an old man who is extremely patriarchal. If a bastard son is born in his backyard, he will treasure him very much. If it is a bastard daughter, he never cares about her life or death.

The most hateful thing is that he is also an old pervert. All the young maids who came into the mansion had been violated by him, which resulted in two to three illegitimate daughters being born in the Prime Minister's Mansion every year, for Madam Lan to torture them.

After hearing what Lan Wanxi said, Prime Minister Lan's mortal enemies all stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Lan is a first-rank official of the court. If he is really like what Concubine Lan said, it is enough to prove that he is unworthy of the position and should not be the prime minister."

After hearing what his mortal enemy said, Prime Minister Lan immediately kowtowed to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I am innocent!"

At this time, Jiang Dichen suddenly said, "Send someone to investigate and we'll know whether it's an injustice or not."

After Jiang Dichen finished speaking, he ordered his subordinates, "Come here, go to the Prime Minister's Mansion and check to see if it is as Concubine Lan said."

"Yes, Your Majesty." After Yan Mo finished speaking, he hurried out of the palace.

Mrs. Lan was completely anxious now. She didn't know what to do, so she looked at Shen Ruolan and accused her, "Lan Wanxi, no matter how bad your father was, he raised you up anyway. I didn't expect you to be ungrateful and repay his kindness with hatred. You are so unfilial."

Shen Ruolan sneered at Madam Lan and said, "Madam Lan, you may have forgotten that before I was five years old, I was supported by the leftovers earned by my mother's labor. After I was five years old, I was supported by the leftovers earned by my maids with my own hands. The reason why I was able to grow up was not because Prime Minister Lan was so good to me as a father, but because of my lifelong efforts."

Mrs. Lan was so angry when she saw Shen Ruolan constantly exposing the shortcomings of the Prime Minister's Mansion that she wanted to tear her to pieces. However, this was the imperial palace, so she could only hold back her anger.

Jiang Dichen picked up two written severance letters, came to Shen Ruolan and handed them to her, saying, "This is the severance letter that I wrote for you. Do you need to add anything?"

When Shen Ruolan heard that Jiang Dichen had helped her write the severance letter, she looked at him gratefully and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."

After she finished speaking, she picked up the severance book and began to read it carefully. Fortunately, her original mother was literate and taught her a lot of words when she was alive, which made it not so difficult for her now.

Seeing that his son was not afraid of trouble, the emperor glared at him with an unhappy look on his face and said, "Chen'er, why are you joining in the fun?"

Jiang Dichen glanced at his father and said to him calmly, "Father, Wanxi is my woman. If she has difficulties, I will naturally help her."

After he finished speaking, he paused and continued, "A month ago, Prime Minister Lan tricked Wan Xi back on the pretext of filial piety and had his own daughter kick your grandson away. Naturally, this relationship must be severed."
