Shen Ruolan looked at the jealous Concubine Wu, smiled at her, and said softly: "Who said that? Didn't the prince treat everyone equally last month? Or is it..."

When Shen Ruolan said this, she deliberately paused and looked at Lady Wu meaningfully.

Shen Ruolan's meaningful look made Concubine Wu very uncomfortable. She frowned and asked her, "Concubine Lan, please finish what you are saying, or what?"

Shen Ruolan cleared her throat and said to Lady Wu, "Or is it that Lady Wu, your desires are too strong, and the prince can't satisfy you, so..."

Shen Ruolan paused when she said this, and said to Concubine Wu kindly, "Concubine Wu, don't worry. If the prince comes again, I will tell him about your situation and ask him to make up for it in advance next time he goes to your place, so that you, Concubine Wu, can also experience the feeling of floating in the air."

As soon as Shen Ruolan finished speaking, not only Lady Wu's face turned red, but the faces of the other beauties also turned as red as cooked shrimps.

Several people secretly thought in their hearts that Concubine Lan was extremely bold. It was fine for her to say that Concubine Wu was lewd, but she even dared to say that the prince was not capable enough. If this were to reach the prince's ears, who knows what kind of disaster would befall him, because men are most afraid of others saying that they are not capable enough.

In her heart, Lady Wu cursed Shen Ruolan's ancestors for eighteen generations. She was still a virgin, okay? Where did her strong desire come from?

But she didn't dare to say this, otherwise she wouldn't be able to raise her head in front of the beauties. She took a few deep breaths and said to Shen Ruolan, "Concubine Lan, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything you want. I'm just sighing about how much the prince loves you, and I'm not dissatisfied with the prince."

Shen Ruolan said "Oh" and said calmly: "That was because I misunderstood Lady Wu."

Lady Wu: "You..."

Lady Wu originally thought that Shen Ruolan would be angry because of what she said, and would scold her or something, but she didn't expect that her soft tone made her angry and she had no place to vent her anger, which really pissed her off.

"Ouch" suddenly a scream came from Shen Ruolan's small kitchen.

Shen Ruolan quickly got up and went out, and asked He Yue who was in charge of the fire: "Yue'er, what happened?"

After hearing Shen Ruolan's question, He Yue looked at her with a pale face and said, "My lady, your medicine was knocked over by the maidservant next to Lady Yu."

When Shen Ruolan heard that her medicine had been spilled, she glanced at the maids present and asked them with a dark face, "Who is Lady Yu's maid?"

As soon as Shen Ruolan finished speaking, a little maid suddenly knelt down with a plop and apologized to Shen Ruolan, "Concubine Lan, I'm sorry. I was thirsty just now and went to the kitchen to get some water, and I accidentally knocked over your medicine jar."

He Yue glared at her and said, "You're lying. You clearly stole the herbs from the medicine jar, and when I found out, you threw the jar away."

The little maid shook her head vigorously, refusing to admit it: "No, I didn't steal the herbs."

When Shen Ruolan heard that the maid was here to steal medicinal herbs, her eyes suddenly turned cold. She looked at the maid coldly and ordered the beauties to leave: "All of you go away. You are not welcome here. Don't come again in the future."

After she finished speaking, she stood at the gate of Qingfeng Courtyard and made a gesture to everyone, indicating that they should leave quickly.

When Lady Wu saw Shen Ruolan was about to chase them away so quickly, she glanced at the small kitchen and asked her maliciously, "Concubine Lan, you are so anxious to chase us away. Are you brewing some shameful medicine in your kitchen?"

The aroma of medicine had been wafting through Qingfeng Courtyard for a few days. The purpose of their visit today was her small kitchen, so even if they were leaving, they had to find a way to take away some of the medicine residue.

Shen Ruolan looked at Concubine Wu and said coldly, "What medicine this concubine makes has nothing to do with you?"

Concubine Wu was speechless after being blocked by Shen Ruolan. In terms of status, she was higher than them. What she did in her own courtyard did not harm them, and it really had nothing to do with them. She glared at her fiercely and said to the sisters behind her: "Sisters, since Concubine Lan does not welcome us, let's leave quickly."

After saying that, she took the lead and left.

The other beauties glanced at Shen Ruolan and followed Concubine Wu away.

Lady Yu walked at the end. She looked at Shen Ruolan and wanted to explain to her, "Concubine Lan, I..."

Shen Ruolan interrupted her with a cold face and said, "Take your maid and get out of here."

Concubine Yu had no choice but to leave with her maid.

After Shen Ruolan and everyone else left, she told Yue'er, "The remaining medicine has arrived, so put the dregs in the fire and burn them."

She bought two sets of medicine in total. The first set was semi-finished and the other set was being boiled.

However, after being disrupted by them, she could no longer continue. She didn't want to create any more trouble before leaving, so she endured what happened today.

"Yes, my lady." After hearing what Shen Ruolan said, Yue'er hurried forward to deal with the medicine residue.

After Lady Wu and her group returned to their courtyard, they immediately asked the maid who had knocked over the herbs, "Juan'er, how is it? Did you get the herbs?"

Juan'er shook her head at Lady Wu and said, "To reply Lady Wu, Yue'er reacted too quickly and I didn't have time to take it."

When Lady Wu heard that she didn't get the medicine residue, she glared at Juan'er and said, "Stupid, so many people helped you watch, and you didn't get anything."

When Lady Yu saw Lady Wu scolding her maid, she said with an unpleasant expression, "Lady Wu, you are so smart, why don't you go by yourself? Now my maid is accused of stealing and is being insulted by you. From now on, you can go by yourselves to handle the affairs of Qingfeng Courtyard. I will not participate."

After she finished speaking, she told her maid, "Juan'er, come in."

"Yes, my lady." After the maid Juan'er finished speaking, she hurriedly followed her master.

Lady Xue saw that Lady Yu was angry, so she looked at Lady Wu and said in a reproachful manner, "Lady Wu, your words just now were a bit harsh."

Lady Wu said nonchalantly, "That's how it is. We held Concubine Lan back, and a few maids pestered her two maids. Even so, we still couldn't get anything done. Isn't that stupid?"

After she finished speaking, she paused and continued, "After what happened today, it will be difficult for us to go to Qingfengyuan again in the future."

Lady Li agreed and said, "Yes, Concubine Lan is extremely cautious. She only leaves the courtyard once every few months. After what happened today, it will be even more difficult to cause trouble for her in the future."

Lady Ding, who rarely spoke, listened to the conversation of several people. She smiled mysteriously and said to them, "I do have a way to get something from Concubine Lan, but she is a bit greedy."
